Who's Matty?
@@Ektambo Retro Rebound*
@@armandomorales0921 his name is literally Matty, this is his second channel bro
😅 😂 🤣
Local game shops would be awesome. Just exploring the other avenues for retro game collecting is interesting in general
But it wouldn't be as negative so he wouldn't get as many views. That's all this is.
Would love to see local shops being supported in future videos!
This Matty
Probably wouldn't get as many clicks unfortunately lol
I'm all for supporting local stores, but part of the fun of this series is that it's such a crapshoot when you order from GameStop.
This, but a "spending $200 on old games at GameStop vs spending $200 on old games at local independent game stores"
A good ol versus battle is always fun
Yeah. Amazon would be the exact opposite of that. Btws, Amazon is about as evil of a merchant than Walmart. I wouldn’t shop at either of those ever.
Mr Matty is single-handedly keeping GameStop in Business!! 🤑
That duty actually belongs to Phoenix Resale. He buys like 10s of thousands of dollars worth of games a month from GameStop.
The unboxing should just be anything you wanna get. No restrictions to retro or anything. What you enjoy doing is the best content to me. Love these vids, can't wait for the next.
Matty in 10 years:
*I spent 10000$ on old games at Gamestop and..."
I feel like Amazon might give you more options in pickings, it can also be a fun mystery on quality of such pickings.
Amazon says exactly what condition the item comes in. It’s also wildly over priced. Oh, and shopping at Amazon is the 2022 equivalent to buying at Walmart in 1999: It’s done by brain dead consumers that don’t realize how bad those corporations are for our economy.
I love these videos man, and as a GameStop employee, a lot of these packages are disgraceful, because I always make sure that the items that I pack up are shipped in the most secure way possible. Most GameStop employees are lazy, and are really mad when they have to do a shipment during business hours, even though its their job to make sure that the package is shipped out correctly and secured. Also, I do agree that GameStop does charge too much for most games that do not include the case and manual.
As someone else who also works at my local GameStop I feel you on that so much, I take so much pride in my work and when I ship out games, some of these hurt my soul, no cover art we can’t control that when we get those in trade but when some come in with NO CASE really hurts
This is one of my favorite series on TH-cam, your approach to collecting is exactly how I do it also, keep em coming Matty!
I'm always down for Goodwill/Thrift store videos
I’d love to see you check out Ghost Rider on PS2 since it’s October.
🔥 💀
A word of advice as an ex GameStop employee, never order cartridge games (vita, DS, 3ds, older) if you care about cases. It will 90% of the time not come in one because the average consumer just threw them away. It was extremely rare for people to bring in cases with cartridge games for trade. It’s worth it to check their “retro” section frequently in person though. Most of the time their prices are not caught up with current pricing unless it’s extremely well known to be expensive like pokemon
As a current employee even some people do not keep cases for current games. I get people trading in switch games and them just pull the game out of the case their system is in
Gamestop dont have a retro section where i live for years now
@@greencastle337 not all of them do anymore, it’s becoming less and less common as they start to focus on collectibles and stuff more. People trashed their games and at my store, all we had were shovelware for the Wii and DS, a ton of copies of sushi striker for 3ds, and scratched up common 360 games like call of duty and sports games. Nowadays Blu-ray is much more scratch resistant and people buy online and digital so much that what does still come in tends to hold up better. It’s just not worth it to carry “retro” as frequently. non retro stores all send out their retro trades to a designated retro store, and even still that retro section is usually pretty weak
@@EvenSteven yeah switch is the most common one for people to throw out cases since it’s cartridge and they just keep it in a bag or game holder. I usually had people literally pull their games out of their pockets. And not even the same pocket at that, they had to check every pocket to find it all. Newer disc games ps4, xbone, up) usually still had a case, but more often than not it had water damage, it was crushed, it was covered in gunk. It’s pretty crazy to me, even before I started collecting I respected the fact that these things are expensive so I don’t want to destroy them. Even a new sports game is $60 at launch, so why wouldn’t you take care of them?
@@greencastle337 My store still has some PS3, 360, Wii and WiiU, not many but some. Since my store is one of if not the biggest square footage store, most other stores are small and do not have enough room to carry them. Even my store barely has enough space for them
Amazon or retro shops would work. Just don't stop this series. It needs to find a way to live
You deserve to treat yourself with actual complete pick ups man lol.
Always love these videos. I’ve ordered GameStop a few times too to mixed results lol. Keep up the great work Matty
Amazon and local shops are fun too, but there's nothing like the grab bag of horrors GameStop has to offer.
Would love to see you do some hauls at local game shops!
Love the videos Matty excited for another Gamestop haul!
Random ebay lots would be fun to see!
I actually love this content so much keep it up!
Hey Matty, would be awesome to see you do some vids of you shopping at your local retro game shop
His name is Retro Rebound!
I love your videos! Thank you for many hours of entertainment! Also your videos make me happy! 👍🏻
Another fantastic video from Retro Rebound!
Istg these videos instantly make my day. I can’t really afford to collect games, but damn it’s fun to watch you collect them
This series feels made for me, been slowly but surely recreating my collection that young dumb me got rid of over the years. Did some serious sticker removal after watching the previous videos lol
Love these videos man keep up the great work 👍👍
i love this channel and your content bro!
I'd love to see retro store showcases! these videos are fantastic
I just can't comprehend how in 2022 used games are treated like cards. I blame humanity for ruining the blockbuster Era
Imagine paying this much money for a manual, and a piece of plastic with a printed PNG on it.
haha always curious to see these GameStop pulls, maybe do a mix of GameStop vs Amazon vs local shop to compare what you get from each? That would be really interesting to see if there's more manjuice on just GameStop or do others suffer the same fate 🤣 thank you for creating these videos! very entertaining
Either local shops or eBay. GameStop is beyond trash 😢
I personally want to see more Gamestop videos I think most other places like Amazon don't really have this fun element of surprise that you never really know what you get that those Gamestop hauls do offer. It just is to fun to watch when you sometimes get the dirtiest crusty peed on copys of games ever in existence and other times you really get a good clean copy.
Exactly. Going to a local game store? What’s gonna be fun about that?
“Oh, here’s a copy of Super Mario 3D Land… and it has a case. I’ll buy that”. I’d find it more interesting to watch someone go shopping for groceries.
0:30 refreshing to hear Matty's real voice...nice and deep like a soulful R&B singer.
Love these videos!!! Would love to see your full collection!!!
So glad I subbed to ur channel , such a pleasure to watch ,awesome content ,plz keep it up
Yes, a local retro game shop and you could do a vlog as well. Is there something about Gamestop that I'm missing?
Cigarette smoke could be why a case is yellowed. Nicotine does that.
Hearing the locked on Mavs theme here got me hyped 😂
you should've got their clearance sale! they had many switch and ps4/ps5 games on sale. I grabbed a few jrpgs on clearance and other well known titles.
I just love seeing you opening paks 😁 waiting for that next $50 increase 😎
I would love to watch some local game store videos! Actually pick up some collection worthy items! 😂🎉
It’s so fuckin crazy I grew up on me Matty and now he has this channel, been watching a long time much love Matty❤️
Anywhere but Gamestop or Amazon. Screw the corporations. They under pay and overcharge. Support local people like yourself. They are just trying to feed the family and spread Gamer Joy!
....and franchise employees don't eat or have families?
Would love to see you hopping around local retro/vintage shops or even yard sales hunting for bargains on the best games!
That's 300 dollars more then I've ever payed at gamestop.
A Matty Game Hunting Vlog series would be an awesome way to continue the series I think.
4:53 ....dude just threw 3 weeks worth of grocery $ on the ground like it was nothing 😭😔😂
I think local shops could be cool, you could walk through with us. Haha. I will watch either though, keep up the great work.
“What do y’all do, come home and punch and beat up your games?” - the guy who is throwing games he just got across the room in frustration haha
I live for these videos!
Salutations Mr Matty!! And Thanks for saving me Tons & Tons of money!! 💰
Definitely a very good video. I do enjoy them all. I would vote for Local Game shops as well.
The best part is Matty throwing 3DS games across the room lol
Love the vids dude
Definitely should go to a local vintage game store!
Keep it up Matty!
There are several retro stores that sell online, my favorite being Double Jump Games in Vancouver, Washington just over the river from Portland, but their website is currently offline for updates and to conserve their inventory for Portland Retro Game Expo which is next weekend from when this video was published.
Locally from STL the only retro store that does online selling would be Trade N Games in Fenton, MO, a suburb of St. Louis. They've been around for 20 years, even though one of the busiest Gamestop's in St. Louis is a 5-minute drive away from them.
I would absolutely return the “game only” games you got. No way in hell I’d keep them. Game Stop has a lot of nerve selling games for full value that aren’t complete. This is why I’d never buy games from them online.
Local retro shops next. I love these vids.
Random lots on eBay has the same gambling ish appeal. The ones where you pay a certain amount but they guarantee more value in return, they just don't specify which games are in them.
"Old, old games like PS3".
Oh man, I feel like one foot in the grave at this point, I won't lie. Every time I look at my NES collection, I'll feel like a fossil.
Again, orders for games newer than GC/PS2/OG XBox era are sent to stores so yes that box contained games all from one store. You can tell what store sent them on the shipping label as it will say "shipped from XXXXX" where the 5 X's are the zip code of the store.
In the UK we have CeX which is perfect for this kind of series cause they have like every game ever available online all across the country.
Like the video. I cry when you fling the games across the room though
U have to go hands on in-store when retro shopping, but man - these haul videos are youtube Gold.
local retro for sure! 10:00 let's gooo!
Lmao the wife beater just taking his bad day's frustration out on poor Mario 3D Land 😂
Dude you're right. I always watch these 🤣. I just quite like the random assortment of games you get
fr like lootbox or some
In all the online re-selling madness, people forget the retailers still have stock sometimes and at good prices. Shop around, never know what you'll find.
Love the content and the breathe of fresh air, please let me be your editor
That Mass effect trilogy case or lack there of, genuinely hurts me haha, but id say local business if you have that option, or test the waters on amazon, ebay, or fb marketplace to really try your luck, great video though!!
PS4 Odin Sphere! 🔨
Tri Force Heroes! 🔱
Fire Emblem ⚔️
Sims 2 and Spyro!
Super Mario Land!
Zeno Chronicles!
Mario Cart 8
Pokemon X
Bullmoose Music. Give em a shot. I grew up with them. They're a local chain. Good luck, Matty.
I don’t think anyone makes fake 3DS games that look even slightly legit. Regular DS had a bunch that could fool GameStop employees easily though.
The disrespect for Tri Force Heroes made me laugh 😂
i hope you hit 100k soon 👍
Ok. I think I'm starting to get addicted to this GameStop opening vids...
Matty, NEVER make excuses for your love of Fallout. WE love Fallout....
I suggest. Abandon GameStop.
Go for Amazon
I hate my younger self for trading in my old games and consoles to get new stuff.
Feels like I'm watching more and more of a villain origin story unfold in front of me for every L taken in this series
Local shops, thrifts, and garage sales might be fun.
You should do a video of buying games on ebay that only show a stock photo and the name of the game as the description.
definitely want to see a nice local shop maybe a redemption video 🤣
Every time I watch your videos I go on eBay and buy one of my old childhood favorite games. So that’s 2-3 games every pay period 😂
You could try some gaming related mystery boxes, retro or otherwise. See how many things you recognize, and any new characters or items you meet will be another bonus you could look into.
Local shops would be super cool to see!!
Honestly it be cool to see other stores,Amazon,Retro Game Stores.
Thanks matty😂
Ah yes another wallet burner episode (kidding) Love the series keep it up
Please do some local shops! I think that would be really cool. Maybe even compare GameStop to another local store.
I’m with the Local Shops idea but I also thing it would be interesting if you did a gaming mystery box from Ebay!
I like these types of videos
Roadhouse
what happened here is exactly why I shop mercari and lukie games lol.
Yes I love these vids
I think Amazon would be good because they actually tell you what condition used items are supposed to be in. Would be interesting to see if sellers are representing their items properly.
The intro song is "Red Dead", by Skypier, if anyone is interested.
The hair game in this video 🔥🔥🔥🔥
You should do a series checking out different local retro shops if you can! I'm sure you could find a lot with online stores as well if travel isn't an option
I would love to see you try your luck at goodwill shopping. They have some good game bundles you can find on their website or app.
That yellow Mario 3D Land was probably owned by someone that smoked cigarettes inside their house and everything they own has that yellow film.
