David is an awesome guy. I've dealt with him for years here in Tucson.
This was a super entertaining episode. Can't believe you guys snagged a House of the Dead for $200.😱😱😱
This seller was very interesting. I agree with his stand on maintaining the original cab as best as possible. The stories of the conversions (Timber/Tapper/Altered Beast) is also really cool.
4 Days... ow men I can't wait !! 👌
Quality went up 1000% on this episide. Nice job! One thing I'd change....more shots of the full cabs and maybe some shots of gameplay on the screens in exchange for less glamour B-roll closeups of parts of of the cabs and random paraphernalia in the space. Think about what we would want to see if we were walking around. I'd want to glance at every cabinet.
Really digging the show. I like how you guys know a fair price or deal and aren't pushy into getting a better one. Like some other 'picker' type shows.
I've done deals with David. He's a good guy. Congrats on your picks. Whoever is doing the editing on this is awesome! Nice cuts and good camera angles. Great job guys. Now... I need to pay David another visit. :)
This was an entertaining episode, the guy you went to visit seemed really cool. Your editing and production values for a self produced youtube show are exceptional, you guys are doing a good job with this and it is an asset to the retro gaming community.
Wow I don’t know what blew me away more the production on this episode of the great cheap deals! Holy Cannoli this is AMAZING. Bravo Bravo loved this episode and sent it to 20 people to hype you guys up
King Kong, you my dude brother! Been with me from the beginning, thanks for all the support man! I’m so glad you liked it! ✊🏻
Awesome much appreciated
This is a fantastic series!
If you are still working on an overarching title for your websites, how about the "Arcolades"? As in a play on the word on accolades.
Just a humble weird suggestion. Love your content, by the way! Stay awesome!
Sorry. I meant webisodes not websites. Autocorrect is always fun.
I saw so many games in his warehouse that I remember playing and seeing in arcades. So glad to see collectors out there preserving these machines in all their glory.
Awesome show! Should be on mainstream TV like American Pickers and Pawn Stars
Another great episode guys that place had a ton of awesome classics look forward to the next one
Love this show love how you have history tidbits sprinkled throughout feels like something that could be in tv and what a deal on the house of the dead!
ok, episode 2 was even better than part 1... 😄
Really enjoy the hunting, history and overview of his collection.
You got some really good deals ... his prices where 👌
This is by far the best show for video game nerds like me on UA-cam or on mainstream t.v. 300+ arcade cabinets in a storge warehouse, all that nostalgia, history it all takes me back to my youth. Keep pumping these out guys....A+..!!!!
I love this show already! Consider me hooked since episode 1 and have been patiently waiting for this episode. Great job guys. I'm really looking forward to the next one. ggs
I love the show. This is a totally awesome idea for a show. I'm looking forward to the next episode for sure!! 😊👍🏽
I really liked this episode. Have a whole new respect for Ralph! You can see his genuine love and respect for real arcade cabinets. Other guy lost me at the wii mod and lcd in the tekken....
Thank you so much for watching bud, much appreciated!!! ✊🏻
I love this show! So jealous. We need videos on the resto of all of these!
What a beautiful video I would give to go to that place and remember my childhood in my country when I played with my best friend in Arcades and now he rests in the presence of the Lord in heaven, since today I have joined his channel. heart with this video, my friend was faithful to Tekken and I to the Arcades of Mortal Kombat.
Arcade Pickers is THE S**T! Y'all bring back all the feels, from the good old arcade days!💯 Can't wait until the next one!😁🤙🏽
Awesome show concept and execution guys!
The freaking editing is beyond top notch, this needs to be put on tv or Netflix asap!
Wow. Brilliant Ralph.
Thanks bud, much appreciated 🙏🏼
Love it! Production went up from the 1st show, and the history segments are a great addition! Keep it up guys! Looking forward to the next one.
Omg u guys came to my home town ,good o Tucson Az ,Ahh man I could met u guys .
Awesome show! All the feels, man!
This needs to get picked up!
Great show! Keep up the excellent work gentlemen.
Hey guys what an improvement, especially with the first chapter being so strong. Thanks for adding the game history in there for some context. I appreciate you considering my feedback and I smiled when I saw the inclusion of that information. Keep up the good work, it's a lot of fun watching and keep that Spirit of Joy in there. That is what makes the show special. The passion for the 'cades as pieces of real history.
I wish I could thumbs up this more than once. Excellent stuff and I think this will be huge for you guys.
Great job!
Great series so far, Ralph. Wrestlefest!!! Nice. I loved WWE Superstars, too.
This is becoming a fun series to watch. There are some awesome arcades in there and you guys got some good deals for sure. Keep up the great work!
Usually when someone says I seen a narc.
Everyone turns around and run.
LOL! Thanks for watching!
This is well made if this was a televised series or on a streaming network I would pay to watch this.
So great. Love this show, Ralph.
Getting better... the non-scripted parts are clearly better than the scripted ones. And the "values" at the end are pretty subjective, particularly when you haven't actually resold any of them yet. But keep going... it's fun stuff!
So bad ass!! Keep it up guy’s! Love the quick facts🤘🏼🤘🏼
You guys are doing an awesome job!
Nice job!! Very well done!! Can’t wait for episode 3!
Great show, can’t wait to see what’s next. Already have the family hooked.
Kudos to Cory, Ralph, and Mason for an excellent episode!! Can't wait for you guys to come do some Arcade Picking in SoCal :)
Thanks for the support bud and the superchat is much appreciated!
Cannot wait for the Next One! ;)
Great episode and pickups!
Awesome production quality, keep it up!
Awesome show my favourite pick up that you got is that WWF wrestlefest I remember putting quarters in that thing like crazy
Unreal show lads... wish we had places like this in Australia with dedicated collectors swapping and selling ... could easily watch for another hour keep up the great work !!!
Awesome show ! 👌
Thank my wicked friend, I appreciate your support buddy 🙏🏼
Thank you Wicked I love your show as well
I’m really digging the show.
Candy cab for $400!? That’s insane!
Excellent as always ! I am reliving my childhood again !! :)
Love this series. Keep the episodes coming boys
I see Narc in the thumbnail and I'm clicking
Great episode, you guys look like you're having fun,
I had some constructive criticism about episode 1 but this episode was amazing! I had a smile from ear to ear the entire episode! The seller seemed genuine and charismatic. I could watch hours of you guys just hanging out with him and talking about all things retro arcades. The deals were amazing too! I honestly think he was the highlight of the episode. I'd love to see you guys go back to his warehouse later on in season 2 or 3! Beginning to end enthralling episode. Great job!
Thanks so much
nice vid. Awesome Indians hat. Chief Wahoo lives.. Still wearing my hat as well. Same one over twenty years....
If I could upvote x1000, I would. You guys really upped the game on this episode. Love the history facts and the interaction with the sellers. I swore I was watching a tv production show, and not YT.
I thought that was really well done. Good production.
Nice episode.
Love it! I will be picking up a free multicade from a coworker soon. Will need some work but I’m excited for it.
Nice man, do you know what its running? Pandora's Box, PC, 60 in 1, or something else? Excited for you!
Not sure yet. He said it stoped working one day. Will find someone to take a look at it and get it fix. It has 4 players set up.
this right here is the channel... cannot wait..
My body is ready.
Was hoping I didn't miss it .... excitement is building 🎉🍻
David must have seen the first episode and sharpened his negotiation skills haha! I wish I didn't know this series existed until at least 10 episodes were up, I'd love to just sit here and binge these. Great work guys!
This was a very enjoyable show to watch! I look forward to seeing more arcade pickers in the future :)
I can’t wait for this!
Another great episode! That place was like an Arcade Sanctuary 🙌
Seriously guys knocked it out of the park with this episode. So much arcade material to work with I can only imagine if you guys ventured into the Midwest.
Netflix what are you waiting for?
Yea, come on Netflix! This is a grest video. It's "kinda" like American Pickers... Just a little... Loved it!
Excellent job guys! Ep 1 was good, but this one is on a completely different level. Congrats, keep up the good work.
Great episode guys, I didn’t want it to end. Looking forward to your next episode.
Loved it guys! Can’t wait to watch on the tv with the family someday!
Great job guys. Cory your one liners are on point. Great call backs. Keep it up guys!
Great show, loving the episodes...
Wow guys this gets better and better. I really enjoyed the first episode and the production value on the 2nd one went way up. Keep Em coming, you got something special going here.
Great job guys!!! Keep up the good work!!!
God that dude's collection was insane. I'd be like a kid at a candy store with all those classic games around. Epic Candy Cab pickup too I'm super jelly. Can't wait to see what you end up doing with that.
Absolute quality production on this series so far. Can't wait to see more!
Great show. Watched it with my wife and we both enjoyed it. Look forward to the next one
I really like how you implemented the history of Gorf, that was really insightful. Keep up the great work guys. Loved this episode, I really wish episodes are an hour long. It's so interesting to see what people have and the history of their machines.
Keep quality shows like this coming. I want these local folk to think that their arcade games aren’t worth as much as they are.
The show was great...well worth the wait! Thx, keep them coming.
Excited!!!
Yessss. Been waiting for this...!!!!!😎👍
Production quality went way up on this episode. Nice improvement! First episode felt very much like a decent pilot, and this episode feels like y’all are getting your footing. Cool!
I mostly appreciate the natural enthusiasm. The back room funny moments that I’m guessing were the few scripted moments were surprisingly done well without being too cringey and were entertaining as a thing done sparingly! Nice.
Some constructive feedback, I like the onscreen little annotations, but I think they work best as concise and small when on screen. For example, at 7:54, it’s a giant block of text that not only covers up a lot of the screen, but it’s SO much text, that it’s competing too much with the dialogue that’s also happening on the same time. If annotations are concise, it makes it easier to read while also still listening.
If it were me, I’d have a character-limit cap for each positioned annotation (side annotation, bottom annotation, top annotation, etc.) to force conciseness and consistency.
You can also consider a simple icon for the TYPE of annotation: arcade history, personal trivia, an ‘after the fact’ note, etc. instead of a generic “fun fact” title, just to give the viewer, at a glance, an idea of what the annotation is about without even having to read it, to know whether or not it’s something they even want to disengage from listening, just to read.
Could even explore like: Icon > Creative Topic Title > Body copy
Ie: Koolaid man icon > Wall Busting Terror > The koolaid man was first shown busting through a wall in 1974
At a glance, the icon tells me it’s trivia regarding koolaid man, the title is interesting, then the body copy is concise.
I’m spitballing here, just trying to give any useful suggestion to be taken or left!
Nice job!
All this " I can gut this and put a wii in it" and the Batman for the California Speed, and cut a marquee in half? Come on dude. Cringing so hard.
I’m totally with you on this, I have suddenly gone off the show. Just why would you do that
You said it all
I would have almost died as well walking into that warehouse!! Great job both of you and yes this should be on TV already.
I love these types of shows, and i hate the fact that i know these shows are scripted but it's pretty entertaining. I would definetely watch the whole thing.
Believe it or not, the deals are all unscripted for the most part. Sometimes the seller what tell us what’s “off-limits” before we start but that’s it really. Thanks for watching!
@@RetroRalph Hey that's pretty cool. Thank you for replying. I subscribed recently and i am enjoying your content!
Great stuff, really amazing improvement from the first! Well done
Another great episode guys. I want some more!
I don't see how they can top this find unless galloping ghosts starts selling lol
Genuinely thought you were gonna fall out over trailer space!! Haha great episode absolutely love this show
Thanks bud, I really appreciate you watching and supporting the show 👍🏻
Great show mate, loved it. Keep up the awesome work.
Dave is a great guy. I’ve picked his spot before. He helped me out with a part for my EDOT. I know a few more good spots to pick in town.
Right on , thanks for watching man!
Ok I'm about 3 minutes in and already this is a huge improvement over the pilot episode, even though there's a lot of editing and production everyone seems more relaxed and natural, great job!
Thanks so much for watching and I’m really glad you enjoyed it!
@@RetroRalph yeah man I really enjoyed this episode, how often do you think these will come out?
Damn I love this show, that guy has a lot of cabinets.
Great job boys, I think you will be signed with History channel in like 2 weeks...
I hope so man 🙏🏼 Thanks for watching!
Superb. Don’t even get me started on conversions, multi games, and tacky led buttons. I’m also with Cory; DC>Marvel.
Dude I feel you, I can’t stand LED buttons 😡 Thanks for watching man 🤘🏻
Great episode guys. That place was awesome! 👍🏽
Even better than the first episode. Those were some really good deals. I want to go to that spot myself now but there's nothing like what you guys have local to you in my state of New Jersey. Jealous as hell. Keep it up and I can see this being a show on TV. Especially if G4TV ever comes back
Awesome show again - so many great games! 👍🏻👍🏻
