You are certainly entitled to your opinion and whilst some of your points are valid others in my opinion don't have a leg to stand on. The best part of a console are the games you can play on it, that's the point of it, and to my mind I can't think of a single big IP that has a rushed game. And the Nintendo Switch Online service may not be the worlds best but it does what it needs to and it costs a quarter of the price, if that, of the other console online services

Because there is no holes in the front and the lid is airtight so the pumpkin would explode because of the pressure from the smoke coming from the candle

Well said haha thanks

Good question, previous comment answered nicely. But also it stops the pumpkin from going off as quickly too I find

Thanks! Nice profile pic. Dragon Ball fan?

Thank you! Cheers!

Thank you! Cheers!

Thank you very much! 😊

Best find some cover then 🤣

Me too, making this has made me want to replay it again

Thank you! Sometimes if it goes all the way through the pumpkin can't support it's own weight

Thank you! Will do!

It's honestly amazing, loving it and I'm not even that far in yet 🤣

I can't imagine it will to be honest unfortunately

It was a bundle available on the My Nintendo Store available for pre-order with the game, it's currently unavailable now unfortunately. Your best bet at the moment is getting a second hand one

Yeah I'm dead impressed, I love it

Yeah just with a differently coloured ghost! Looks awesome!

They're out of stock on the website and I'm not sure whether they'll be coming back in or not. Honestly my best guess is that they won't be but you'll probably be able to find something on eBay or something like it

Me too, this honestly looks so good

Yeah right, we'll see about that 😘💥

Such an amazing game!

Will do, thank you so much for the support!

Thanks man, absolutely love doing repairs, even if small, just scratches that itch in my brain 🤣

I know that feeling! 😄. Have a goodun.

And you pal 👍

Thank you. Orange is my favourite colour 🤣. Not sure if you can see in the video but all of the trim is blue as well and they pair really nicely

@@thebritishgamecollector i did spot the blue skirting, reminded me of the cover of the box for total nba 97 on the ps1 👍 will keep an eye out for future uploads. Cheers 🤝🏻

Awesome, thanks for your support

Thanks man, means a lot

@@thebritishgamecollector absolutely love seeing collections like this .

It's taken me such a long time to get it how it is now and I know it's not absolutely massive like some of these massive TH-camrs and what not but I'm extremely proud and grateful of it

Haha that's awesome!

Thanks man, I love it. Haven't stopped playing it since I got it 😂

Yeah it's ace

Yeah full complete in box bud, got a right deal. They actually sent it with a carrying case which I forgot to show 😅

@@thebritishgamecollector That's awesome. Keep em coming!

Will do!

Yeah it's ace haha and the GBA is awesome too. My mate gave me one back in the day and I always used to play it but it doesn't work anymore hence why I got this one and this is CIB too so extra bonus

I'll definitely look into it 👍

Thanks man! Means a lot

Thanks mate!

Thanks man!

Thank you very much. I'm gonna get a stand for all my handhelds so I can actually see them when they're on display

Thank you, I'm lucky that I have room to now. A few years ago mine were all stored away too

They're great, I wish I had more but I have played a few more. And thank you

Thank you very much, that's awesome to hear mate, cheers

@@thebritishgamecollector do you have an instagram account ?

I don't to be fair but that's a good idea mate, when I get chance I'll make one today 👍

@@thebritishgamecollector worth having one, good way too meet other collectors. I’m jaybo82 if you get chance to make one 👍

Awesome mate, just gonna finish setting it up tonight then I'll follow you

Thanks man, I try my best haha

That's really nice to hear mate, thank you very much!

Cheers mate, that means a lot. And yeah definitely, I've had loads of fun making that video and talking to everyone in the comments

Thank you, means a lot!

Thank you, it was my girlfriends from when she was younger. We ended up finding loads of old photos on it 🤣

Thanks!

I'm 20 so a bit on the younger side, I honestly love the games still, they're still really well made. And I used to have it, what a phenomenal game that was, proper switched up the formula for zelda. Unfortunately I have no clue what happened to my copy of it but I need to get it again

@thebritishnintendoguy it's a belter of a game aint it 😁 that was the first zelda game I played 😁

It was my first hand held zelda, honestly amazing!

Thank you, that's amazing mate!

Awesome man, that's a right collection you've got going there. I literally just added the Zelda Game and Watch to my Nintendo basket, that's some spot on timing there 😂

Awesome!! My strategy is to buy new games while still cheap so that's why I tried to buy some 3DS games last years. And "campaign products" also. Amiibos are also cheap as "brand new" after a new print from Nintendo but a few years later pretty expensive and you might have to buy used Amiibos without the package. Some games that I never buy: Pokemon. I'm really not into that. Same with Final Fantasy. Same with Animal Crossing. Will probably never buy those games. The only non-Nintendo stuff that I got: Sega Mega Drive Classic Mini Mega Man Wily Wars (2021 / RetroBit) Mega Drive Classic Mini got Wily Wars so that made me buy it. And then they released the physical Wily Wars and I had to buy it as a collector's item. Otherwise it's pure Nintendo in my collection. Gonna buy a - few - more games for Wii and 3DS. I feel almost done. I might buy these GC games if I find them used in good enough condition for a fair price: Super Mario Sunshine Zelda Wind Waker Metroid Prime And also, if I find this for Wii for a fair price: Metroid Prime Trilogy. When I grew up I had NES, then sold it plus all the games a few years later to afford SNES and "Zelda 3". I can't remember what happend to that SNES. I also had a Gameboy but same thing: can't remember what happend to that one. I miss my old consoles but it is what it is. At least I got pretty many of "my games" back thanks to the Classic Mini consoles and Switch Online. I know about {cough cough}... emulation, I've tried it, but it's really not the same thing. It's so hard to find a great controller and I cannot play with a keyboard. The great thing with all these physical releases is the artwork! Especially the special editions of games. Now this new Zelda TotK Coll Ed was pretty expensive compared to Metroid Dread SE. I don't wanna have all games digitally on the console's flash memory (eMMC, SD card or whatever). We can do the math to see how much storage we need if I've bought all my games as Digital Downloads instead. Would be a lot. Not THAT expensive to buy a SD card with 256 GB or 512 GB. But sooner or later you will need to buy another one, and then another one. You cannot even re-sell the digital downloads so it's a 100% loss. The physical copies will never be a 100% loss. In some cases you will make money. It's not a big deal for me to swap physical games when I wanna play another game. I've actually bought a few games as Digital Download for Switch. But I only do that on these very good sales. So for example Castlevania Anniversary Edition. I actually bought that game as a physical release (Limited Run Games) at the end of 2021 when it was kind of brand new. Still sealed! Maybe I will keep it sealed and play the digital download only. In the end of the day, it's the games that are most important, not the consoles, so that's why I'm not that into buying the original consoles for NES, SNES and so. I rather have fewer consoles it that's possible. That's also why I got Wii and not Wii plus GC. The only downside with Wii is that you cannot use that GameBoy games add-on made for GameCube. Maybe also that link cable for other GC and what about the GBA connection? Would actually be so nice to play GB games on GameCube! You cannot have everything :) but you can have a great "quality over quantity" collection! Just wanted to share some thoughts and so :)

100% mate, seems like you've got an excellent grasp on what you love doing, so why change it, there's no point in doing something you don't enjoy so keep the status quo. Like you said, it's about the games, that's why the vast majority of us collect what we collect because we enjoy them.

Exactly! And I've seen these collectors that got "all NES games ever released in that country". Of course it's nice to have a complete collection like that. It's a great challenge to get all those games but at least I wonder if it's really worth it. I rather collect "as many Zelda games as possible". I'm more into game series than "all games for each console". So to give a great example of this: I bought these physical copies for Switch: Mega Man Legacy Collection (LC) Mega Man X LC Mega Man Zero/ZX LC Mega Man 11 So with all these games for Switch, I don't feel the need to buy the games for NES, SNES and so on. It's about the games. And these 4 physical copies takes up so little space. Only one negative thing: Mega Man LC and Mega Man X LC got only the first games on a game card, the last games are not physical. But you get the point :) it's about the games, not the consoles. But we need at least one or a few consoles to actually play the games. So how many consoles and which consoles is really a personal preference and how big your apartment or house is, and how big your wallet is :) One last thing in this comment about collecting: I've noticed that these huge collectors often buy bulks of many games, even if they don't like the games. It's so they can trade games: they can trade a game from that bulk against a game that they wanna have. So they have a collection plus a "trading area". Maybe it's worth it? I don't know.

I'd say bulk buying is worth it, I have done it with other things like comic books, keep the stuff you want and sell off the other stuff because more often than not you can make your money back or even make profit. Or like you said, trade for better games

Sounds like a plan one day mate

Yeah the Wii U was pretty underrated, I get it had its issues but it had an amazing library and when utilised properly the game pad was pretty fun. And cheers mate!

Zombie U and Project 0(Fatal Frame) use the pad very well in my opinion. And zombie U is a cheap game and very good if you like horror themed games.

Yeah definitely, even games like Minecraft utilise it very well

Thank you, can't wait to keep posting them

Awesome cheers! Need to get more games for it, definitely one of my favourite consoles by Nintendo

Awesome man, will do
