We were there for so many hours and still didn't get to go through every thing that was downstairs. That place was so damn cool
we have to go back
A graveyard of mountainous retro game love!! I would have had to duct tape my dick to my leg if I went into that store! No homo! :P
Hey alpha I found skys of arcadia for 50...should I get it?
u r cool for posting. This is awesome that you can hang out in the chat just like you do in the video. Wish i could say hi in person =) ps you are short. I am 5 6 so its not an insult lol
I think you won the episode dude, lol. Did you pick up anything decent?
for the record i was sweeping to get us a better deal!
No it was just your natural instinct!
lol wow
Way to take one for the team hehe. Congrats on 500 NES titles!
Game Sack Bahaha he did sweep pretty well...
Game Sack LOL
I laughed way too hard at 8bit Eric's description: "youtuber, gamer, chode"
Just watched all 42 episodes. You guys are a fucking hoot man, oh my lord. Best show I've seen in a long time.
Thank you!
+The Game Chasers Third time watching this , BTW JAY YOUR A CHODE
Worst day of my life at work today. Seeing your new video made it all worth it!!! Thank you!!!!
fuck work!
Haha tell me about it buddy!!!
life's a struggle brah.
Sarcasm yo!
snowontheweb did you get fired?
Awesome get on that Lords of Thunder disc. Such a fantastic game, with a soundtrack that remains as my favorite of all time. Pricey, yes, but a sweet addition to any library.
I really enjoyed the camaraderie in this episode, with Shane, Spoony, Alpha, and Ryan along with the Game Chasers crew. Getting groups like that together-- whether it's for a convention or for an episode-- is great because it unites friends & colleagues with similar passions. It was neat seeing Billy, Jay, & Eric play off of each other, too... and I laughed a whole lot.
Finally, it's too bad about that X'EYE not going home with someone. I always wanted one of those, myself; it always seemed like a perfect consolidation of the Genesis & SEGA CD, and I like the form factor, too. Maybe someday...
Thanks for another great episode, guys. I've been under the weather over the past few days, and (re)watching your videos has been one of the keys to helping me feel better.
Hi how are you looking for very happy
Every couple months I have to marathon the entire series. This episode always sticks out 😂
Spoony's speech on PC gaming vs console gaming... he sold me! I'm done with consoles. Actually arguing over consoles vs PC is like arguing over cars vs airplanes. Sure airplanes maybe be faster and all that but car enthusiasts don't care. You can't get a sweet Prius airplane. Nor can you get a badass Escalade with spinning hubcaps airplane. Nor a rockin' Ford Pinto airplane. The closest you can get to those is to carry said cars in the airplane. But car enthusiasts don't care about that.
I agree with you. I'm tired of PC elitist saying how PC is better. Does it have better graphics at times, sure. But, almost all console games aren't on PC. So how would it be better? Neither are better, just different.
shinmusashi44 "Almost All Console Games arent't on PC" Then why did SEGA back in the 90's port a lot of there Saturn, and big Genesis games to Windows 95? I have a few VF 2, Daytona USA, SEGA Rally, Sonic CD, Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles, the list goes on, and most games outside of Nintendo that are multiplatform these days get a PC release, and have so for years. I agree each are different, and have there strength, and weaknesses, but don't go around spreading lies, because yes even in the 80's many games that where on the NES, where on Home computers as well like TMNT 1 is an example. it was on the Commodore 64, along with many SEGA games like Space Harrier, and Outrun, and yes even Tetris had a port on the C64.

You seem to live in a fantasy world. Most console games WEREN'T on PC. Are you crazy or something? You listened like 10 games and try to say "see most were on PC". 90% of NES, SNES games weren't on PC. About same with lots of Sega games and so on. I really can't believe you would think most NES games were on PC, that's just insane.
shinmusashi44 I'm face palming at your response, I was giving a few examples, but I can name a lot of games that started on the PC, and ended up on console afterwards, Need for Speed series, Doom, Quake, Hexen, Duke Nukem, Wolfenstin 3D, Turican, Maniac Mansion(it was on Dos PC then NES), Madden series(Apple II IE), Tetris(DOS PC, Commodore 64 then NES, etc..), I can keep going on, and on, but I would be here for hours.
Commodorefan64
And I'm facing palming at you and your fantasy world you live in where you think most console games are on PC. If most console games were on PC, then why would emulators for console games be so popular? Wouldn't we just go play the PC versions instead?
Eric actually swept the floor?
Dude, you're my fuckin' hero.
thanks you are my hero too
I am seriously had to stop this video for a moment, because I can't breath, the part where you put 8 Bit Eric in there and he says "I'm slow" was just hilarious. Also when AoS showed up, that was fucking great. Good stuff as always.
P.S...Jay's a Chode
Hey dude, nice to see another gamer metalhead! I have a gamer channel and a metal channel! Gonna check out your channel now. And yeah, they are gonna use that 8-Bit Eric clip FOREVER. BEAT that dead horse!
"Yea but you'll slip on the way." LMFAO!!!! Oh yeah and Chodes.
Congrats to Eric for surpassing 500 NES games
Spoony's exit...epic! 🎆
I really love going to that store. :D
It's already been said a few times in the comments but this really is the best episode you guys have done so far. That's saying a lot considering how good all the episodes are. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos for us.
I WILL GET MY JVC X'EYE ONE DAY YOU DAMN CHASERS! ONE DAY!!!!
(p.s. Jay's a chode.)
I think I still have a Wondermega in my basement, the Japanese version of the same thing. It has a region switch. Except it has wireless controllers and s-video, two things JVC took out when they brought it over to the US because US gamers hate wireless controllers and s-video. Oh they also took out the karaoke feature I think but who cares? Anyway, want it? Well too bad because it's not mine to give away you should feel ashamed.
Game Sack I will forever live in the shadow of people who own the system that I shall never own...
*****
They didn't get it. Why didn't you? Didn't want to pay $100+? The thing would probably still be stuck in customs upon your return to Candyland.
I was short on cash. :P
Game Sack ***** he was too busy buying ugly controllers.
I just want to thank Billy and Jay for what has been my most favorite thing to watch on UA-cam since I first came across it some time ago. I enjoy the search just as much as I love the banter.
Thanks a ton dude!
2022 Annual "Rewatch every video" from The Game Chasers from the start of the channel to now. Thank you reliving an amazing past. F Pat. I knew I had to catch Jay slippin'
Dude that was a very awesome episode! Most of my favorite UA-camrs are in here with you guys search in through the Pantheon of Retro Games in good ol Philly.
Rock on, and #CHODES
😎👍🎮
I think this might be one of my favorite Game Chasers episodes of all time. Awesome games.
Watching you guys dig through piles of old games makes me giddy. Really wish there were dungeons full of retro games around here, haha.
This is still my favorite thing to watch on youtube. Keep it up guys - love you!
Rerez' reaction at 6:32 is too funny
COOOOOL! I live right there and I go to classic game junkie all the time! It's so cool to see them walk around my town
Thanks so much Billy for pushing out such regular episodes recently. We all appreciate how much time you put into producing the best gaming show on UA-cam. I'm so excited for the Season 2 DVD!
We appreciate your support!
Epic episode guys!!! It had me laughing really hard! Alpha Omega Sin, and Spoony!!!! They both made this episode EPIC!!!
Neither make content as of today, these are TRULY dark times😪
Alpha omega sin, Jay and Billy I love when you all are together. It is good to see the retro scene live. Keep up the good work! I am a subscriber to both channels...
That store looks amazing. The entire time you guys were in that basement, I kept staring to see if I could see any Sega Master System games (my obsession), and there were a bunch. That's literally my dream. I want to go in to a basement, find a huge pile of Sega Master System games, and take them home for my collection.....This was my favorite episode in a long time. Thanks to the Game Chasers for posting this video!
He had way more Master System games on the top floor. You can find anything in that store. :P
I'm honestly so jealous. Just seeing those Master System games made me want to fly to Philly to do some game shopping. Who knows, I might just do that now.
I bet that most of you don't get it whenever Jay laughs when he or someone else says "SCAT"... lol
being military and workin 12+ hour days these vids really help me make it through the day its always fun to see people come up on some good stuff and even learn a thing or two cant wait for the next video needs more dodongo tho lol
The wires on our Intellivision broke too... Luckily my Dad's friend was an electrical engineer and he was able to take them apart and fix them. He worked for Sears and they had some weird modded Atari where the games were on 16 pin EPROM looking chips that plugged right into the unit. They had 100's of games, the titles were written on the chips in white marker. I have never been able to figure out exactly what was going on there. If I had to guess, he was involved in making the Sears Video Arcade and it was some kind of test module.
Yep that sounds like a test unit, and SEARS did sale an Intelevison clone, which I have sitting next too my CRT I use for way old systems, the controllers are much much better then the original Model 1 Intelevision units, as mine also had controller issues, and stopped reading carts even after a very good cleaning, and I'm glad I was able too find the SEARS model years ago at a yard sale for $5.
Always enjoy the show, wish for stores like that in Rochester NY. There are very few chasing places here, thanks for the fun!
Alpha's music cue in the basement is priceless!
Always nice to see 8bit Eric and alphaomegasin on the game chaser vids!
I liked this episode, it was fun. Surprise cameo from Alpha too was great.
Thank you very much Jay and Billy.
All hail to the Spoony one! He is absolutly right. PCs were, are and always will be better.
Great video guys! Keep them coming! We appreciate all the hard work you guys do in the filming and editing.
thanks dude
You guys are awesome. You've influenced me to start game hunting. I really want a 2600, NES, Super NES, and a N64, but can't find them anywhere. You made me realize that if I wanted any of these old consoles, I've gotta go around places digging for them until I find them. It seems like hard work when I watch you guys doing that, but it looks like fun. Once I've done my first game hunt, I'm going to tell you about the experience I had.
The way you guys ducked out was slick. LOL
Wow, didn't really expect to see Noah up on this show.
Really glad he got in on some of the action too, don't think I've been this jealous in a long time.
And how can you NOT know Midnight Resistance?... It's that one arcade cab Robocop knocks over in Robocop 2.
another amazing episode. you guys never get caught slipping when it comes to quality of your show.
Awesome episode! Can't believe Jay and Eric didn't know what a JVC E'EYE was. I got one. Rarest system I own. Thanks Goodwill! ~ Goodwill Phil The Fluffy Gamer
I love these episodes, where you guys rummage and come out on top. Congrats to Eric on hitting 500+ NES Games. Cheers.
Billy is a trooper! Disregard pain, obtain games.
I'd be freaking out if I had torn my achilles tendon.
I love that you could see the shop owner using eBay SOLD and not FUCKING top amazon sealed prices or some shit lol.
Awesome looking store, awesome video!
I agree!
I knew this episode was gonna be good knowing that Spoony was gonna be on it. I had no idea how EPIC this Episode actually would be. Literally my two favorite shows(and both being major influences on me starting my youtube)Colliding was just wicked awesome to watch. Also Chodes
awesome dude, glad you liked it
Laughed so hard at Romance of The Three Kingdoms 2 description.
I’m on a roll watching all these reruns
Dang it. Every time I see these cool stores it makes me want to travel as well. I wish I had friends who were as much into older games as I am and would travel with me. You guys are fortunate in that aspect and I'm glad you can enjoy each other's company. Also, Jay is a chode.
IMO this is probably my favorite episode of game chasers! lol love all the arguing in the basement haha
"I'm gonna fuckin hit you so hard... that your mom's gonna have an Odyssey 2" Classic 8bit eric am I right?
Also, Jay's a chode!
Yay new episode! That place looked amazing.
awesome video guys!...i've been classic game junkies before great store and great selection of games with really fair prices
Awesome episode! It's always fun to see you guys.
Spoony's love for PC gaming speech was epic. LOL
Fuck yeah, another Game Chasers Episode! What a great day it is today!
Great to see the Chodemasters back once again.
Billy- "your in the basement now, you cant tell anyone, you cant leave now."
Spewneh's PC rant was hilarious. Overall this was the best episode I've seen in a while.
Man I wish the Game Chasers would come to NYC already. If I happen to have any retro games at my shop at the time, I would just donate it to them.
I could watch these episodes an infinite amount of times!
Holy shit, 8-bit Eric caught Billy and Jay slipping?! How can this possibly be? It's not possible! I can literally feel the fabric of the universe and reality tearing apart around me.
The C on Jay's hat is for Chode
Should check out Classic Game Junkie's second Store in West Chester PA!
Man that was a funny episode!
I kept cracking up at everyone slowly trickling down to the basement.
Lovin' it ! Keep them coming guys.... FYI... This 47 year old just got himself an oculus rift ! Welcome to the new age !
smart to go after the PC games back in 2015 - the market on PC big box games has skyrocketed - can't even play them on modern systems but gd they great on the shelf
It's all about Alpha's epic entrance into the basement
He just showed up like a freaking wizard.
Wal-Mart's making a killing on that retro Mario shirt. Everybody's got one...I'm wearing it right now.
5:06 Eric busting out that wrestling terminology.
and the other guys had no clue what he meant :-D
Oh haaaaay spoony, Good to see you on a episode, hope you show up again
Wish I could say my Game Chasing was good. Just got Domino Rally for the Wii for 5 bucks free shipping.
Great episode as always!
As for Spoony's comment about PC gaming. I never found the PC to have the better experiences. Some of it's early stuff was downright aweful and most of it probably doesn't age well. Oh well.
Came home from lame ass school, but it's all good, because I was welcomed by a great Game Chasers video. Keep up the good work!
new found respect for 8-Bit Eric, sweeping to get a better deal...nice!
The Jvc Eye I found one of those at a second hand store for 5 bucks... I wish I still had it.. damn house fire of 2012.. Great Ep. though guys love the show!!!
Loved this new episode. Wish I had a store like that near me.
13:50 The Nature Boy would be proud. PC Master Race FTW!! Whoooooooo!! LOL!!
always love seeing eric pop up, I feel yourselves and him have great chemistry (sexy saxophone starts playing). Another great video!
Yaaay! New episode of The Game Chasers =D My favorite show on youtube, =D Thanks guys.
Thank goodness!
Spoony had a mental breakdown after this and became
Chris D'Elia.
Alpha isn't even around anymore now either 😪 bring them back!! Both had there moments of shine
Jay's a Chode. but really Welcome Back Game Chasers! great episode !
I hope you guys know how awesome it is to watch your show. And what a great episode. Id love to do something like this.
Oh my god. When 8bitEric did his impersonation, I just busted out laughing. hahaha!
I'm big into the Japanese Nintendo games, so I noticed the Twin Famicom system and box they've got. Good stuff!
Love how AlphaOmegaSin came literally out of nowhere lol
Eric: "I have Elien"... lol
I was watching ep 43 and you said you had been "haunted" and so I went to the end of this episode and all the sudden there's Spoony, I literally was like "SPOONY!?!"
hahah i like when AlphaOmegaSin comes in front of Camera nice Dude
wow, I never thought some pea sea mustard rice would intrude on my game chasers episodes. aside from that bit (kind of funny I guess) great episode! glad to see everyone back together
JVC X'Eye and passed it up, I would have had a hard time on that. This episode was a Guest Star Extravaganza.
And no one saw Spoony ever again.
Damn guys, you always put a fucking smile on my face. Thanks. Hugs from Argentina.
Tron Solar Sailer.... and Space Spartans... i had both as a kid :)
Spoony's PC Gaming rant was epic.
I used to have a combination Sega CD/Genesis, but it was a CDX.
Man, I wish I still had it...
They are hard to find now, but they have a lot of problems with the caps going bad sadly, which means a lot of repair work most of the time if you do come across one. The GameGear suffers from the same fate sadly.
holy shit Paleo from the bronys react
Was it the classic Sega cd or the new version?
Thanks for all your hard work guys, love these videos.
I have few friends that are "PC gamers 'till death", but when they come over, I can't move them away from my consoles! True Story
Because that's probably all you have and consoles are more "friendly" as in you and your friends can plug right in.
Just drove up there with my brother and it was awesome, like the most amazing store I've ever been in
awesome to hear it still exists :)
The way "Only to tell you what fuckin' losers you are!" was delivered still makes me laugh to this day. Followed by the Rick Flair "Woo!"
