Helping plan and curate the museum at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo was one of my favorite things I’ve done this year. This video is the guided tour that we never quite got to give - with lots of history and extra information. I also included a bit about our planning process and challenges we faced at the end if that sort of thing interests you. Thank you so much for watching!
Special thanks to all of the VGHF and PRGE volunteers and donors! 100% could not have done it without you. Of course also a huge thank you to John Hancock for providing his collection for display in the museum.

I really meant to have this video out in November, and for that I apologize. No good excuses - just been in a funk for a couple months and losing myself in work at the store.
Regardless of the timing, I sincerely hope you enjoy it! We worked hard putting this museum together!
I also learned some real valuable lessons about taking enough B-roll!! Apologies for some of the footage being shaky - I had to borrow from other footage (as indicated in the credits) and it’s not all perfect...and neither is my footage. Towards the end of this video my editing software was crashing constantly and the result is that it’s not exactly as polished as I’d like it to be. Appreciate you all sticking around through my learning process and hope I’ll have more content for you soon!

Great job kelsey
Thank you Kelsey! Hopefully Christmas eliminates any leftover funk.
Kelsey Lewin Milagros! Great video!!
Great job to all of you. This is much appreciated. I had no idea that new nes games were still being made. Very cool.
I love your videos Kelsey!!!
Having my full Nes collection on display is just a taste of what to come next.
It looked incredible! Wouldn’t have been the same without your collection. People loved looking through it.
Amazing contribution John! Looking forward to what's next!
John your the man
you've been saying this for years...I'll believe it when I see it
But does it have Hong Kong '97? 😂
I really enjoyed this Kelsey!! Great job. Learned lots of new stuff about Nintendo
Thanks dude! Sorry I couldn’t give the tour in person lol
metal jesus beta
Fuck off MJR!!!
@James D lol so true
why didn't you show the in-box rampage game i sent you? i wouldn't mind so much if you never responded but you volunteered that you would be showing it in a pickups video a few months after i send it. it's been a lot longer than a few months, and i've seen your pickups. i wish i sent the game to someone more appreciative. i bought it during a time that i was actually homeless while walking through the mall i slept outside of. i knew it was way too cheap and i had to spend what little i had on it at the time. i'm not a collector or anything i just love video games. i loved rampage as a kid. you said you were going to show it on your next pickups video. i spent more money to ship the game to you than i even paid for it. why did you say that you would show it and then not do so?
Yay! Such a fun exhibit. These museums are my new favorite thing about PRGE.
Aww thanks John! :) and thank you for letting me use a few seconds of your footage for this LOL. I didn’t realize this would be a 28 minute video when I was taking photos and video.
JohnRiggs hi John :)
As they should be ;)
Seriously though these are the kind of things that will keep these Retro shows thriving.
This video is one of the best history lessons on NES I’ve seen. Your narration was excellent. I learned a few things here. Really interesting. I grew up with this stuff. I was there man lol. IMO the NES is the greatest console ever made because it brought back a dying thing that we may never have gotten to experience. They put a lot more quality into the games compared to Atari. I thank Nintendo for the industry today. They basically brought back video games. Gaming is my favorite thing. I will be a gamer until I physically cant lol. Even then.
Me too
Im from Latvia and in mid 90s nes games were very popular here, until pcs started to show up. i had a nes clone called zhiliton, i still remember how me and other kids were exchanging yellow cartridges at school and in school bus. we bought very few games, most were exchanged. i started to replay nes games in 2006 when i was 19 when i got internet and downloaded emulator with games. im 31 now and i still replay nes games now and then. they remind me many childhood memories.
As non American, many many many thanks for this amazing virtual tour. You are young so for you its history, yet, for me you just made me relive it. And for that im grateful! Thanks.
@Nimrod levy - I'm absolutely with you on that. I grew up with the NES here in the UK so this was a real treat.
Thanks for taking the time to show us what you all made. It's super apparent how much time went in to making this and it came out fantastic. Thank you for doing all you do to help preserve gaming history!
This video has seriously opened up my eyes to ALL of the other awesome Nintendo stuff I HAVE TO HAVE!!!
I received my first Nintendo on Christmas day 1985, what a Christmas it was! Super Mario Bros., Ice Climbers,wrecking crew and excitebike were the games I got and still own. Nintendo was so amazing to grow up with in the 80s. I can remember going to Best Buy and looking at the Zelda and Metroid boxes and trying to decide which one to buy I ultimately went with Zelda but picked up Metroid about 4 months later after I'd saved my money. Great memories.
Thanks Kelsey for sharing the history. There's probably tons of Nintendo fans that live in an area where video game museums, game cons, and the like are hard to come by. Thanks also to the people that contributed their personal collections to make this possible. Hope everyone has a happy holiday and a wonderful new years!!
Though it must have been a lot of work to set up, what a huge achievement. I wish I could have been there to see it in person but I just wanted to say thank you all for your efforts and for keeping the legacy preserved. Long may it continue!
Wow! You did an amazing job and I really appreciate you taking the time to share it. People like you guys are the ones we'll have to thank for preserving this history. Thank you!!
I can’t get enough of classic NES games and Nintendo history. Thanks you!
Keep making videos. They're so good, and your interest in this stuff is so strong it's infectious. That's a very good thing.
this is incredible. i love seeing a well loved set of many fan collections like this. i've only started recollecting a lot of my old collection that was sold off in various garage sales back in the 80's and 90's.
what an amazing an exhaustive exhibit!! kudos to you, Kelsey, and everyone else involved
Thank you very much Kelsey, this was an amazing exhibit you guys made. Sharing this by video for all of us who could not see it live was just awesome. I am blown away by the scale and number of artifacts you managed to collect. I was a Commodore 64 user back in the 80's and 90's. I still remember the Nintendo Robot display turning up one saturday at my local branch of Booths in the UK where I bought most of my games. I would love to see other brands like Sega, Commodore and Spectrum get the same treatment. Even though you don't post so many videos, they are always high in content and information. Thank you for your hard work.
Man, it's awesome to see people putting so much effort into stuff like this. Thanks for such a good documentation of the exhibits, too.
Great work guys and thanks Kelsey for preserving the moment for those of us who couldn’t join the expo 👍
Great work to everyone involved in putting that together. There were so many things in that room that I never expected to see in person.
i could listen to you talk about video games all day
Kelsey this was a great video. Nintendo was my childhood, especially at Christmas time because that's when I got my first nes system, and every year all I'd ask for is games. This took me back through some good memories
This was a joy to watch, just amazing. So much history here I wasn't aware of, so many memories I recalled, I grew up with this stuff. I was a kid and happened to see some of those first Game and Watches in person. Thanks so much for making this. ^^
Thank you so much for this video!!! Making it possible for us not able to attend the event is so very much appreciated, and your narration is fantastic! Thanks again!
I really like these longer videos you do with more information. As I've been a gamer/novice collector my whole life and just haven't been able to afford evet going to a convention. These videos are a way for me to experience the exhibit. Thank you for all your hard work!
Kelsey, this is awesome to see. Living in Ohio I wanted so badly to go to Portland just for this exhibit, so this video is fabulous and I appreciate all the time and hard work. I will be showing this to my son since he and I both go to local retro shows in our area and he is becoming a fan. Thank you again.
Thank you, I love historical video game videos like this, more than happy to watch if you are making more
My brother worked for 7 years as a game play counselor in Redmond, WA. I'll never forget the amazing games he brought home regularly. It was like Christmas each week! You guys did an amazing job! This brings back so many fond memories. Thank you!
This video is packed with great information and I love the chill saxophone music. Thank you for making this!!
It's ok you didn't get this done "on time," you did it and I hope you're proud of this awesome accomplishment. Thank you for this comprehensive video, keeping video game history alive, and sharing this with others.
Great video Kelsey! The amount of time, effort and care you guys put into this is outstanding. Thanks for the tour!
Thank you for this! We would have loved to have seen this in person, but this is fantastic coverage. It looks like you guys did such an amazing job at setting this up and covering so, so many bases in the history of the NES!
Wow, this is awesome. Thank you so much Kelsey for putting this video together and sharing it.
Allll the crazy ish I never knew👽👀👀👽
You guys are all awesome, doing all this hard work to keep the history of video games alive is exceptional, thanks for this upload :-)
One thing about the game crash of '83, it wasn't bad for everyone. Growing up in a lower income household, it was actually kind of a blessing. I have fond memories of grabbing heavily discounted Atari games from bins at the grocery store and bringing them home to enjoy with friends and family. Not that this has anything directly to do with your video, I just felt like mentioning it. Great job!
(Standing ovation!) Great job to all the helping hands and very nice editing. Narration was also spot on, never boring, and super informative. Reminded me a bit of a Kelsey version of Gaming Historian. Again awesome job to all that had a hand. Also John Hancock..... Hats off and bow to you good sir. One step closer to the museum. Yes!!!!
Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 ya’ll!!!! 👍🙏🏼😊
Thank you for taking the time in the video to highlight the Mario Prototype Plush! If any new information comes to light please let us know! Great video!
Such a chilled out voice.
What a great Video even as of today!! I learned so much. I remember seeing it. and it was fantastic. thank you and everyones hard work put into this and for bringing us the ability to see and learn more about these games!
*Wow. Great video, alot of info. I was born in '82, so i remember alot of this and got my 1st nes system in '87. Wish i wouldve hung onto some games.*
Awesome video! Great job Kelsey and everyone that volunteered their time for this.
This is really amazing, thank you for an inside look for those that could not attend!
This was amazing! Thank you.
I love how hard you work to preserve the History of the gaming world
17:56 that's my artwork there on that copy of Battle Kid :D
@blake bishop what the fuck?
@Larry Bundy Jr - Hello you! :D
It's not Peter Molyneux's. Love your work Mr Bundy jnr.
Well done, i'm glad that you did this, the museum, and the tour. Narration was excellent too.
Once again, another fantastic video by Kelsey. It's awesome to see the coverage and dedication to gaming culture that you have. The educational element to just about every video you do or are a part of stands out and isn't lost on those of us that geek out about gaming. I always learn something new in just about every video or podcast you partake in. That's a testament to your ability to cover just about anything gaming-related in an entertaining and informative way.
Stay amazing Kelsey and keep up the great work and contributions to the coverage and preservation of gaming culture! 👍🏼
Wonderful video! Great to get to enjoy the tour this way, get a great view into Nintendo history (US in particular, but also otherwise) and also how the exhibit itself was made. Watched this with the kids and we enjoyed it a lot!
This is really something special! Thank you so much for sharing it!
You do such an aiming job presenting this, Kelsey! Very well done!
Absolutely excellent video! Amazing collection of memorabilia, games and hardware. Thank you, I think this video came out great!!
Thanks for all the hard work put into the pop-up and the video
Wow thank you so much to everyone that helped make this museum possible and for sharing your Nintendo knowledge ❤️ ✌️
Thank you for uploading a video with so much info on Nintendo's history. I learned a lot more than I expected by watching this. It brought back so many great memories as well!
This has to be your most heavily scripted and edited video.. its just Fantastic. Thanks so much for putting this together, as someone who can't make it out to these events, i would have appreciated a glimpse. Instead i got an in depth tour from someone who helped curate!
Thanks very much for this. Great curation and a true labour of love.
This is really great. it is fantastic what you and your members are doing for video game history. This video was very well put together and paced, so i felt like i was really experiencing the exhibit, and learning everything i would if i was there. thank you so much!
15:48 - I can see all nine of my translations! Awesome! Great exhibition, pity it was for a couple of days in October, would be great to see elsewhere, given the huge amount of rare stuff.
Kelsey, great job with the exhibit and video! Much appreciated!
Great work Kelsey! Always enjoy how thoroughly you do your homework. Thanks for sharing,
This was awesome! Wish I could of seen this in person. Thanks for posting.
Really nice tour Kelsey... Lovely to see all the passion put into it.
Great video, and loved seeing the Commodore 64 monitor being used to show off the NES - one of the best options for retro gaming in 2018.
What an amazing video. Thank you so much for sharing. The point of sale case was incredible.
Awesome video! Thank you so much for showing us this!
Thanks for the great video! Any efforts to help remember the history of gaming are greatly appreciated ;).
This was amazing! Hopefully more museums like this pop up in other cities across the country.
Amazing!!!
Would have loved to come there!!!
Far from Italy.. but carved into dreams!
Awesome job guys! Visiting something like this would be amazing!
This kind of content about expo/show from you and metal jesus absolutely great, me myself living overseas in a developing country far from capital city would not get a chance to attend and feel it myself, but enthusiasm and usefull information/insight about the show (not just crappy vlog) trully help me feels it
What an awesome video. So much new information. Thanks Kelsey.
Really appreciate all the hard work you guys put in voluntarily.
This video has shown me a lot of Nintendo history that I didn't know and that is very rare :)
I am glad it has taken you so long to post this video because it now feels like an early Christmas present .
Keep up the great work and also thank you to everyone involved.
Amazing video and narration, thanks for doing this for people like that lives so far away from pretty much everything cool. Here in South Dakota there’s nothing like that. Thanks again.
Great Description and fascinating video. Thank you kelsey!
I like to watch your videos, because there is so much new information of gaming etc. Keep on doing the good work! 👍
Thanks Kelsey, this was absolutely riveting!
Amazing history here. In the video, I saw one of the GBA games that I bought years ago. Great video, Kelsey!
Excellent! 👍 😄 This is an early Christmas present. Thanks so much for sharing it!
Wow, so many details. Great job!
Thanks for making this video, for those of us who couldnt make it to the show. Next time i make it back to Seattle, I am excited to visit your stores, international/u-dist. ~12~
I love stuff like this. Video games are art and we need more people like you who respect them! This was a blast and I wish all this awesome stuff wasn't restricted to the west coast, or major metropolis' like New York.
Wow, you guys did an INCREDIBLE job!! Wish I could have been there!
I loved this video! This is like on par with a PBS documentary!!!
How are there people that give this a "thumbs down"?! This was really great and an obvious labor of love.
I'm so glad you made this video.
Between my mission to hunt down various things at the vendor room, meeting with friends, the killer queen tournament, and the auction (love my beauty and the beast poster!) I totally missed this exhibit and appreciate you bringing it to us in video form.
I'm not
Ahh that's so nice. It looks like a nice venue to stroll around with a friend
I would've loved to have seen this in person. Such an amazing collection, you can definitely tell there's a lot of dedication.
Awesome video! Really cool to see so much love for older games on the West coast.
Really informative and to the point without being boring great video.
Thank you Kelsey. This was great!
Great Job! Your attention to detail was awesome. I wish I could have visited the exhibit.
It's a shame it ever had to come down, ahh Kelsey, I could listen to you game talk all day. Good show!
Great video and presentation. I relived some fond memories because of your work. Thank you.
Really awesome tour, Kelsey.
What a fantastic video! Makes wish I got to see that in person. I'm going to make it my goal to go to the Portland Retro Gaming Expo in 2019.
That is one hell of an exhibit.
Thankyou so much for giving all of us that weren't able to attend the event the chance of seeingbthis amazing exhibit. And we got an added bonus those at the event didn't.... your superb and detailed narration.
Great job Kelsey, always learn something new with your videos, cheers
Thank you for making this. For all of us that wish we could have attended and seen this in person - this is a great alternative. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
