Nice, I like that most of the YT channels I watch all now do podcast cause now when I'm not at work or out and about I usually listen to a ton of podcast while doing chores around the house or depending on the games I will mute my game audio and listen to a podcast while I grind for XP in games so this is much needed. Keep up the great work and I look forward to the next one.
So glad it’s up in full! I listen on Spotify mainly as it’s not up on UA-cam same time but be great if it was! I enjoy seeing you funny exchanges and reactions 😂 love this podcast
seeing kris in this video put a smile on my face. used to go to his shops in CT every weekend for a long time (still go from time to time now). the cleanest and most organized retro game shop fr
What’s the name of his shop. I live in CT

FINALLY! Been waiting to watch the full podcast forever
Bro keep these podcasts up, the best part is that you love it and so do we
Yessss!! As always love the content and appreciate you all creating it.
We appreciate you and the support ❤
Bevel Thank you so much :)!
Re selling was my hustle when I didn’t have a job. It was great because I could sell the stuff I didn’t really want/need to go back out and get the games I wanted.
You guys should do a podcast about conventions at RetroWorld in Connecticut at the end of August
A great podcast, that I'll download for my son! 😂 Keep it up guys.
Heck yeah full episode 🔥
We also have the full second episode audio, on all the platforms too 🎉 we appreciate the support!
Retro hungry was an OG game hunter. Great content.
sweet love chilling to full length pod casts even more so with you lot ya the best stay safe love from the uk
Specifically talking about collecting shirts; these shirts you’re talking about were events or clothing from when we were kids (I’m 39). I thought about this when I took my son to Disneyland recently - the clothing I buy him for an event, he’ll out grow it. I started buying him an adult L for the shirts I get him so he can wear these shirts for things we did when he was young, but as an adult. (If that makes sense?). Chris went to NWC but the shirt he got wouldn’t fit now, so going and finding it as an adult, you’re wearing history that’s special
Love the podcast guys, I have been following the nes pursuit and the pixel game squad for a while now and this addition is great. I grew up in France but I am the same generation, I was born in 86 and what we grew up with is very similar, we had the same games, toys, cartoons, movies ... I moved to the US in 2015 and had to start collecting again here.
Release podcasts first then clips after I avoided all clips on purpose just so I could listen to this all together
New audio podcast will be out hopefully today or tomorrow. I have it scheduled for tonight at 6pm.
@Chris, thank you for bringing up Kings Quest. It was also a HUGE part of my childhood!
This is so great ❤
You are Great ;)
Living in the midwest resellers and retro stores are the only way to find a lot of these games nowadays. We dont have crazy good swap meets to go to so yeah it kinda stinks prices are going up but without ebay and retro stores it wouldn’t even be possible to collect where I live (Madison WI) love the content keep it up dudes!
Keith thank you❤
I have some buddies that live in the Midwest and say the same thing. Thanks Keith appreciate the support 😃
Btw, I had more than 1,000 NES games a couple months back, it was more like 1,200+ :)
So glad to finally see this. Didn't want to spoil the whole thing watching the clips. Keep it up, you guys are awesome
Really appreciate you so much! I know long form isn’t for everyone and I know segments aren’t for everyone as well. Thanks for being here 😍
Refreshing to see collectors be honest about reselling in the modern era. In the end, everyone needs to do what they feel is right and the best path forward to enjoy collecting in any area. Cheers fella and take it easy!
Thanks Dave:)
If you go back to 2005/6 everyone was flipping games to fund their collections. It wasn't until 2009/10 when garage sales started drying up that people started complaining about reselling. on Nintendoage, almost every garage sailing thread recommended finding duplicates to flip to fund your next weeks trip.
amazing content, hoping this will come monthly or so I'd love for you to talk to your retro friends like retro rick and such keep it up ill be back!
Thanks Stashu, Appreciate the support, we should have some of those guys on here soon 😉
Video game collecting is tops! But figures, vhs, memorabilia period is so therapeutic! I love when people see my collection, and they see a toy or anything they had when we were kids and you can see the flood of memories and nostalgia, it makes it all worth it!
Aaron kosharsky the videogame wizard got me into collecting back in 2015
Love this podcast
I am from Iowa and there are only a handful of consignment and thrift stores in my area, but since the pandemic they barely have any games even newer stuff like 360 or PS3. The Goodwills in my area straight up told me they ship all their stuff to the online store to auction off. We have 2 retro stores in my area, 1 has pretty good prices and the other usually hovers at or above eBay. The problem is when they get stock it goes quickly. Retro Rick and Gaming Off the Grid both inspired me to hunt for DVDs and Blu-rays at thrift stores as a way to flip my way to to games I normally can't afford.
Goodwill is definitely a good topic, and that’s awesome. I started flipping kitchen stuff after all my personal games I didn’t want ran out. Now I collect that history, shirts and paper :) ❤
Goodwill is a reseller that gets their stock for free!! 😠 It’s really annoying because they’ve lost the point of a store like that, people that shop at those stores aren’t making crazy money, they want deals because it’s all they can afford. Their auction site is crazy too, I’ve seen people pay more to them on their than they would on eBay and there’s no guarantee the stuff even works!! The really sad thing is most people that donate to them don’t realize they’re making the money they do and treating their employees like crap and not paying them enough either!
For my son
Always! Love that line. Lol
Loved every minute of the podcast, can't wait for the next one.
Can you guys talk about best items you've missed while gamehunting that your audience pointed out in the comments later? I feel like theres gotta be some bangers in there lol.
Comment on the console jump comparison -for me it was PS4 to PS5. Did I notice a graphical difference, not really but as I get older, my eye sight gets worse and worse so I down graded to a 4k monitor with headphones vs a TV. For me, the biggest difference was performance, running most things in 60 fps with almost zero loading was what got me HYPED! But yes, nothing beat the hype from NES to SNES to, for me, PSX…. Mode 7?! Wait, 3D?! Let’s go!!
New fav podcast
Thanks Jay really appreciate it!:)
Fantastic episodes ! loving the podcast. really brings the energy of the main channel to a podcast form ! Some minor suggestions
1) a gentle music track in the background looping can help fill the dead air or help fill the sound of the podcast
. 2 ) dont feel the need to rush through the topics so fast. And if need be prepare before hand to give everyone time to have points they want to talk about. You guys bring up alot of interesting things but i blink and its over .
When I first started “collecting” I already had games my parents bought me I traded up to games I wanted until I got a job then I went ham on the games I wanted lol
I went ham on my first check with shoes! Lol then flipped shoes for games
Hey riff I've heard you talk about jiu-jitsu before do you practice jiu-jitsu? I think it would be cool to see u show us a tournament or something
I love and grew up on nes but I cannot start collecting another thing
Are you guys gonna be doing a podcast more frequently loved the first one always love the content you guys give us especially editor riff as thats how i found your channel
Yes, we are going to keep at it :)! Going to hopefully have different guests as well 😊 thanks for the support!!
Thanks Andrew, and yes we are prepping for more now :)
Loving this podcast dudes!
Thanks Ed, we appreciate the love 😊
Ed you the maaaaaaan!!
I have seen that over the years watching these retro youtubers, I used to be mad because I was one of those collectors that would hit up pawnshops and thrift stores and yard sales every tues, fri, sat. And I never resold anything if I had doubles I would trade into my local store and UA-cam has popularized Pawn Shops, Thrift Stores and yard sales with the reselling, and I remember there was this negative connotation correlated with this. But over the years has just become part of the hustle to collecting so in a way has become normalized.
I avoided watching all of the clips so that I can watch the podcast in full. I wish they put it out first before releasing the clips
Loving this series 🤙 See you guys in the hunt sometime!
Had a decent sized PS3 and Wii collection for years like 40 games each then I got the retro mini consoles genesis, ps1 and super Nintendo then pandemic hits and from the beginning it was a natural decision to make my collection self sustaining by selling from within taking those funds from profit and putting it back into collection. So I was buying and reselling doubles and games from systems I wasn't collecting and that's just how I did it.
Best podcast
Very kind words my friend!! 😍
Are you guys still planning on selling those Sonic cartoon scans? Really want that part of the collection. Love what you guys do and really like this new podcast as well. Keep it up
Yes, I think you can reach out to PGS on instagram and they can give a contact for the scans. Also appreciate the support ❤
@@RunWithCurt Awesome I'll give that a shot thank you
Need an intro song or something like the pod cast golden hour
Hello from Sweden 🤩🤩🤩
Hello 😀
Mmjjjj Unity lol😢g
I've been reselling for years now and it seems like it all dried up about 2 to 3 years ago. I use to kill it before reselling become soo popular
Retro hunters, wow, that brings me back. I was on a couple of episodes of retro hunters
You were!? That’s amazing!!!
@@pluspixel yeah, i watched them on screw attack back in the day and realized they were close by, a few comments later I joined them on some hunts
We liveeeeee
Love this podcast.
So thankful for that Thomas!
i think you guys saw the difference between the scumbag resellers and the cool collector resellers back in the retro liberty days ....you guys had that reseller friend that always hooked you guys up with awesome deals ! i forgot his name !
Any reason why this was uploaded later than the clips on YT? Why not do the full one on YT first, and then the clips. Watched everything, but still curious. Love the convo in this!
Full Episode Full Heart ❤🔥
Full Austin full heart ❤
bro yall need a podcast channel this shit was so confusing to find.
If I could be so bold as to make a recommendation. Could you label the full episodes and the clips as such. Maybe with episode numbers. Like “Pixel Podcast Ep. 1: Title” and “Podcast clip: Title” It would make things a lot more organized. I would much rather listen to the podcast as a whole then just clips. But I understand that others may just want certain topics. Having what is what in the title would be great. Thanks keep up the awesome job all!
Delicious food for my Retro Soul! Lol 😂 More Scumbag Chris please! And Curtis the “young” guy. Fire 🔥. And of course goood ol’ Ricky! Awesome stuff Riffa! 😊
Hey when is another full length episode coming?? 🤔 😎
Then Inexpensive Now Expensive
I wouldn’t necessarily credit retro Rick with the $10 collection challenge because a UA-camr by the name of Craigslist finds was doing a $5 way before him
full podcasts > cut up tidbits
I listen while listing online
5 game stores is HUGE 12years to get there isn't to long either. NEW GOAL SET haha
Definitely not a small feat for Kris :) and we appreciate you!
Could you by chance number the "full podcasts" or specify that it is the full ? I assume this is the entirety of the first podcast?
Yes this is the first full, I’ll mention that to the group later on. Thanks :)
Gotta get Luis on the pod
The point and click is all emulation unless you own I really old computer. I played all the Lucas arts classics on my Nintendo Ds 😂
I'm going to resell each time Riff says "so to say" 😂.
Starting at $1.00 plus $8.00 in shipping
You are in for a LOT of reselling hahah
timestamps for the parts I haven't already seen in other videos?
You guys forgot Elden Ring in EP. 2 of the podcast when you where speaking on games that got the gaming world hype... shame... also, where's EP. 2 on YT? It's on spotify.
I hate that you guys released so many clips because I feel I’ve seen a good chunk of this already
the problem isnt emulation its downloading roms. Emulation is completely legal
Episode 2 now?
Spotify in the description 😘
Does Kris have a youtube channel?
Hey...my name's Bob
Hi bob!
Can anyone tell me what happened to Gabbo?
He's still around and on some episodes. He also has his own channel now. I believe it's "Gabo the giver". Give it a look.
Yeah he was just with us like a week ago. We Love our Gabbo ❤
Thank you both for the responses filling me in.
Reselling is fine. Scalping like what happened with NES Classic, PS5 no.
And like every new shoe now to 😢
@RunWithCurt I'm glad I'm not into fashion at all lol. But I can definitely sympathize with those who love shoes and can't get them. Remember the scalper who bought all the hand sanitizer during the pandemic? Scalping is sooo out of hand lol.
@@corporaldonut7917 I mean it’s just so integrated with drops of anything now-a-days that it becomes a normal. Sucks but I don’t want to be contributing factor in that. I just want it to be fair.
@RunWithCurt same here. If I really want something I'll pre-order it or just go down to the store. But, those days are pretty much over for me the older I get lol
im just wanting a ps5 now so im playing a system that isnt trying to take off like my ps4 does blody jet engine lol
Shoplifting thieves are evolving in 2023
Lets be honest, if you collected everything why are you still buying to resell; you’re trying to make under the table money.
Riff you gotta chill a bit
Never. That’s not me
@@pluspixel 😂
