These game store buying videos are like candy....We're living vicariously through you Rick!. Also Brutal for the SNES had a massive marketing campaign. I remember wanting that game so bad.
Next video gonna be on his other channel talking bout "Poor Me--Its tough owning a Retro Video Game Store--PART 2". Lmao. Like bruh...no kidding....you stay buying stuff for ur collection under the guise of "inventory". No wonder its tough. 🤣🤣
@@mikerodriguez2103 yeah its hard for him to be a collector AND a store owner. But if he wants the shop to succeed, he has to stop his collector behavior. Wishing him the best luck!
@@furyon9816 he’d be buying everything double, one for the store and one for the collection. In a while the game store is his collection where you can buy his surplus 😂
Great video, I bet the store is shaping up nicely I would love to visit ! And Tommy is right we’d never get mad at him, he is the favourite co-host of any Retro Rick video 😅✌️
still better other people find it cheap, not say oh shit he just bought what i wanted then resell it for a higher price.. no wonder that retro prices are so high
i lost many retro games and consoles before, at this time i would not buy another n64 for more then 100.. because seriously i would maybe try diddy kong racing but probably not for hours.
Dang Retro buying everything at the event. Spending that money. So much amazing items there. All those boxed consoles takes me back. A great time to be a kid. Episode is always 🔥🔥
New to the channel and love the channel I have been going back watching videos even from a year ago. Been getting into collecting myself this year with comics, funkos and hot toys and watching your videos makes me want to go through my vhs tapes to make a collection with those now
That must feel so cool to buy things for the store that may have been hard to justify before. Now it's a potential resale, but until then they're all YOURS! What a feelin' that must be.
I wasn't too excited about this show and the personalities therein but I'd given it a fair chance and I got to say I'm hooked, I really enjoyed the tours of stores and I'm with you on getting a complete loose NES collection, me too; except I'm willing to accept some of them on Repro carts as well oh, you know your hammering Harry, your Panic restaurant and little Samson- Mr Gimmick...the over 300.00 class. Rick? Apparently you toward the southeast? You should consider seeing me I'll give you a great deal on a Sega CDX in great condition, turbo graph x and plenty of other stuff too help me help you help me LOL it's tax time and prices are at their lowest I'd ever consider taking
I've got to say that I have ZERO interest in the toys/games you collect BUT you make your videos so engaging that I am drawn in........IT'S FOR MY SON! Love your passion!
When you were talking to the owner of a booth about RPG Maker, I saw you picking up and putting down a copy of Namco Museum Vol. 2 and I cannot believe you passed on it. For a collector, it is a good find. At one point in my life, I had all 5 Namco Museums and the cover page of each manual had 1 letter of the name Namco. (eg. vol. 1 had N, vol. 2 had A, etc) There was a Japanese exclusive, which I imported, titled "Namco Museum Encore. Additionally, later on, Namco re-released vols. 1 & 3 under the Greatest Hits label.
The very end of the convention is the best time to buy things. Lots of venders don't want to bring stock back home with them so will get rid of everything really cheap. I once bought a huge lot of boxed games for really cheap at a convention when a vender auctioned off all his remaining stock. Only me and another guy bid and the guy I was bidding against stopped bidding pretty early on.
Watching a year later... 😂😂 must be such an amazing feeling to just say "ok I'll take that that that and this and that and ok one of those!!" Without any hesitation or regret. I have to debate if I want to buy a .50 soda or not lol
It’s CRAZY to have started watching Rick scavenging through goodwills for cheap games to collect/flip to now watching him spend hundreds on inventory for his fricking GAME STORE 😂
That edition of the Sega Master System II with the Sonic Pack-in is the same as my childhood one and still part of my collection and it's close to being as pristine as that one. Though the sonic cartridge didn't came in a game box but in some brown cardboard holder on which i made my own cover art as a child.
You know what is very rare to find in the wild at these shows? 3DO.. , but probably because the CIBs sell between 40 and 500 dollars now. Lucienne's Quest CIB goes for about 1,200 and Dini Park about 2.5 -5k .
@Marc Caselle yeah, it is definitely a good RPG. The game on other platforms isn't as good or worth anything as it seems the English version came only to the 3DO at the end of 3DO's life as a company and console. It is the better version of them all and is fairely rare to find CIB. It's definitely worthy of emulation on the PC or for anyone with an ODE. :)
@Marc Caselle you can get one for about 150 -250.... prices are rising partly due to general market manipulation on retro gaming but also because the capacitors are all essentially expired .. Easy fix but the system is going to be increasingly more rare over the next 10 years .. If you do look for one, the best one to get would be the the JP FZ1 that has the 240p switch. You can probably find one on Yahoo auctions for a decent price loose, and possibly one you can easily repair with a complete recap.
The guy that he bought some of the X-men figures from works at Retro City Games in Vegas. Definitely check the place out if you’re visiting or live here. They’ve always got good stuff and take care of the customers
I like seeing some of the old guys that I recognize from Game Chasers. I might have to try wii fit sometime and that master system was looking nice on the top shelf!
I bought A NES when i got to my first Duty Station, Stuck on BASE because a hurricane back, in 96. I have no idea what I did with it, but Sim City was my go-to kill time in-between waiting on the orders to ship to my command already deployed.
8:38 The U-Force was a weird-ass and usually impractical peripheral, BUT every single one I've tried to this day is still super-responsive and works near perfectly when the switches are set right. Try it with Punch Out!
@@SpazzyW was it priced? Curious what something like that would go for that was my first non nintendo console growing up and man did I ever spend alot of time on that thing! Simpler times forsure
I hope Rick gets lots of games and systems and goodies for his store. Great job Rick. I'm just actually curious, where is he getting money from ? How can just throw thousands of dollars away, just like that? Maybe he saved a ton.
That's really cool seeing the Sega Master System II right next to the original SMS. Somehow, I had both as a kid! Mine didn't come with Sonic, though. I had one that came with Alex Kidd in Miracle World built in (i.e., not a cartridge, but just in the system itself).
My day one system was the silver GameCube system bundle, with the Zelda collection in one disc. My parents got it for me from, Game crazy/Hollywood video Around Christmas time, it came with the Zelda collection, and one free rental a month for a year!!!!. I think back and realize that was the best choice out of all three consoles, no way my parents were gonna buy me a 500$ console, to this day that was one of the biggest deals on a console, for me at least. Even sweeter when I went to a Toys'R'us, they were closing the store, I came across the strategy guide for that Zelda collection!!!!!! They sold me that strategy guide for a penny. legit was the best Christmas ever!!!!!
$500 for a CIB Master system with everything in the box still sealed AND the box in that good of condition might be the best deal i've seen in a while.
These game store buying videos are like candy....We're living vicariously through you Rick!. Also Brutal for the SNES had a massive marketing campaign. I remember wanting that game so bad.
Well I imagine I'm the owner of it now if this was the copy that was in the mystery packs a while ago haha
You nailed it 😂 my wife would never let me get this stuff myself. Not that I have time for it, anyway.
lol the girl at the end. She's like: man, hurry the eff up and leave so I can buy this sweet famicom gba!
That poor woman at the end 😂. I totally feel her vibe on being next to overly excited Rick (to be fair the master system is cool)
The Master System was cool!
IMO, that special edition CIB Gameboy Micro was better. That girl even looked up the item before putting in an offer.
@@smilingpsycho I know a guy trying to sell that to me for over a year I want that so bad
She seemed really annoyed 🤣
@@smilingpsycho that was the re release of the game and watch
That lady at the end was waiting very patiently 😄
Ya our bad, had no idea she was trying to buy something
@@retrorick I hope she didn’t mind, both of you put on a big show and she seemed shocked that you bought that master system
She seemed kind of rude to me
If I saw a big deal going down I'd watch and wait my turn
I wasn't rude, I was waiting while he talked for 10 minutes.
That girl just wanted a dang gameboy micro 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rick out here flexing like “imma just buy this whole con” 😂

Great video, I bet the store is shaping up nicely I would love to visit ! And Tommy is right we’d never get mad at him, he is the favourite co-host of any Retro Rick video 😅✌️
That lady looked kinda pissed at the end... lol
LET’S go Rick. Get over here so I can show you where the cool kids hang out in the UK 🇬🇧
I like the retro Scott Bloomquist shirt he has on from Day 1 rewind!
So weird the absolute joy I feel watching Rick buy games from my child hood that i have no space or time to play.
still better other people find it cheap, not say oh shit he just bought what i wanted then resell it for a higher price.. no wonder that retro prices are so high
i lost many retro games and consoles before, at this time i would not buy another n64 for more then 100.. because seriously i would maybe try diddy kong racing but probably not for hours.
Dang Retro buying everything at the event. Spending that money. So much amazing items there. All those boxed consoles takes me back. A great time to be a kid. Episode is always 🔥🔥
That green halo Xbox I bought that brand new when they came out! I want another one!
Retro city games is my favorite store in las vegas, great people great products and always reasonably priced. They are so friendly and helpful.
Doug and Antonio the best!
That woman was pissed at the end 🤣

That girl at the end of vid, saying to herself, "Dude shut hell up already, I just want to buy this and get the hell out if here!" HAHAHAAHA
Okchief 😢😢 miss his videos. One of the first collectors that I really started following.
I think my favorite quality of Retro Rick is that he is not shy on giving shoutouts
I am loving these videos! Those boxes sets you got are amazing. Keep it up and congratulations on the store. It looks great!
The resident evil standup was so awesome. Leon has always been my favorite RE character
That must feel so cool to buy things for the store that may have been hard to justify before. Now it's a potential resale, but until then they're all YOURS!
What a feelin' that must be.
Hah saw myself a few times in the video. Great meeting you there Rick
GAME DAVE! Oh man I love his stuff! That guy deserves more love on his channel.
I LOVED Brutal when I was a kid, Paws of fury was great
0:53 The Joker in his youth.
This was a REALLY GOOD video, more like this and you putting it in the store!!
Thanks for the shout out and your welcome.
You got it my friend!
Best way to end my evenings just finished dinner then a hour of listing items on my ebay store now watch this and bed with the family! Great day
3:12 "Final Fantasy Mystic Quest"
My teacher and friend to the world of RPGs !
So much cool stuff to see, thank you very much. Enjoyed this insanely 😃😃

You should have seen the scarpyard I worked in for a summer there were so many N64 games.
I got like 150 + and pretty much all of them were working
9:21 blink and you'll miss it sonic lolll
Freeway Ricky 😎💰✨
14:03 Damm 👀 wassup w) her 🤣
Love all the vids Rick keep it up! Next time I go to the US I’ll make sure to come visit your store! :)
That Legend of Dragoon was a blast of nostalgia

love your vids, just bought like 4 games at your store and loved it since i was a little kid! love your content!
Brutal paws of fury use to be one of my favourite snes games growing up. Been trying to find it in my local shops for ages. Great find!
It’s CRAZY to have started watching Rick scavenging through goodwills for cheap games to collect/flip to now watching him spend hundreds on inventory for his fricking GAME STORE 😂

@@TheJackelantern I actually want to buy a 3do but they are overpriced at the shops I have been to. If made 20 dollars a hour, I could afford one.

Hahaha those are empty shells 🤣😅🤣😅 got me PLOK ate them lol
That Sega CD is in CRAZY good condition (box at least). "Do you know what this means?" Maybe someone will get that...
That Sega CD is beautiful.
Riff is a man of principal and the game.
GF is not happy I keep pausing at each item 🤣. Can't help that certain things get me excited 😂.
Retro has to keep posting all them “other guys” keep trying to take over the game😂😂 keep killing it Rick !!
lol the lady at the end i cant understand her but i like to think shes saying " Sell Me It! "
Reseller Rick. Keep those prices up.
Right-on, #Retro_Rick, with the Retropalooza pick-ups!! 👊😎
Rick just buys everything now 😎
Shout out to the lady at the end!
You got it going on Rick !!!! nice video bro I wish I was there

Some of these boxed systems are sick.
Awesome - i Wish this Videos would be 30 min longer!
I eyeballed that PS2 kiosk SO HARD when I was there 😭 So fun hanging with you, man. Can't wait till next year!
Do you know if anyone got it ?
@NOVA35O I left about an hour before the con shut down and it was still there when I left.
@@SpazzyW was it priced? Curious what something like that would go for that was my first non nintendo console growing up and man did I ever spend alot of time on that thing! Simpler times forsure
@6door6four96 He had it at $1000 but I heard him say bottom dollar to get rid of it was $600.
I'm in a Retro Rick video!! (chattin with Chuck). My Christmas wishes really did come true lol
The lady at the end was like put that on the director's cut lol
Cool stuff
Rick just dropping bills!!! Lol, I would too!
This video is awesome.
I always get nervous whenever Rick is picking up stuff. I thought for sure that GBP was gonna get dropped lol
I hope Rick gets lots of games and systems and goodies for his store. Great job Rick. I'm just actually curious, where is he getting money from ?
How can just throw thousands of dollars away, just like that? Maybe he saved a ton.
I would like to know what his CC bills look like after buying all of this crap, and have it sit in his store to collect dust.
That's really cool seeing the Sega Master System II right next to the original SMS. Somehow, I had both as a kid! Mine didn't come with Sonic, though. I had one that came with Alex Kidd in Miracle World built in (i.e., not a cartridge, but just in the system itself).
Mine came with Sonic.......however, I had no idea this stuff would turn out to be worth so much!! SMH
I still have my Nes, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64 , Sega Saturn, PS 1, 2, 3s still with there mint boxes.
Totally awesome video man 😎!

I see Rick doing a lot of buying but not a lot of selling on his channel. 😢
Just watch a whatnot stream. You’ll see some sellin’
Had PLOK as a kid, pretty difficult at the time, memories
Anyway I could pick your ear about starting a game store in a rural town… pro cons and how to get started… any advice would be appreciated
I admire this guy because he buys over price stuff and knows there's people that are stupid enough to buy it at triple the price.😎
I had a U-Force when I was a kid. I liked using it for Punch-Out and Roadblasters, mainly.
The girl standing next to Rick like who does this prick think he is some youtuber or something🤣.
Did he give you "anything you want? Hundred dollar bills?" Nice pick ups!
Great video Rick.
Epic picks! Great job and video!
The bloomer shirt is the real winner of this video
Bro been spending alot of money I hope the game market stays strong 💪
MY GOD YOUR IN GOD MODE AND PROBABLY BLOWING THOUSANDS OF $ AT ONCE ... RETRO RICK IS A WALKING A.T.M. LOL
The Booth, the Whole Booth and nothing but the Booth.
You can't handle the Booth
$500 for a CIB Master system with everything in the box still sealed AND the box in that good of condition might be the best deal i've seen in a while.
the scott bloomquist shirt tho 😍
