Lets goooo! Thank you all for stopping by the premiere and watching later on! I love doing these videos and will be featured down the rode on Super Retro Force one! Make sure you comment any questions you got about the game room! God bless!
Think a rug would make it look good. Help fill in the room. U got a big heart man, helping those kids with their backpacks. Better man than me. Liked the 50" tv with background. Thanks for showing us around.
Thanks man. I did have a nice rug that my wife got me before the flood that said retro gamer and had some sweet designs on it. Its funny I read that comment part and it made me think of Big Lebowski. LOL Thanks for watching man.
You have a super clean setup! If i ever get around to making a game room(don't have room in this house), I want my room to be as clean as yours. Everything has a place so you know exactly where everything is. It's not overwhelming and you have a good amount of display pieces to enjoy while you're in there.
Thanks bud!!! To be fair I knew this video was coming so I did clean up pretty well but it normally is pretty tidy. I'm usually pretty organized expect for my junk wire cabinet. LOL
@IowaRetroGamerDad I would definitely have a wire cabinet too. Maybe you can find a more appealing cabinet to use for that and cover it in gaming stickers so it doesn't stick out.
Thanks! I'm hoping to change some things up and get some stuff situated a little better but I love the backdrop for my videos and its a pretty comfy place!
What an awesome game room brother! Always enjoy seeing your annual tour and checking out your super sweet collection! Hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving with your family!
Thanks a bunch! My oldest son was actually down in Florida with his girlfriend so didn't get to see them but we had a great one and expecting to have a fun Christmas! Glad to see you Steve!!
I can't wait to have space like you have. I have a large collection, but I live in a tiny house until I can move. My stuff is everywhere and it drives me crazy. I hope that you enjoyed the yearly Black Friday tradition of watching the Hawkeyes beat Nebraska due to a meltdown as time runs out. I laugh harder every time it happens. Let's go Hawks!!!
I'm unfortunately a huskers fan first and Hawkeye fan second but it was a good game and that's all I can ask for. Lol. Nebraska is going to a bowl game which is the first time in years! 😂
@IowaRetroGamerDad Oh ok, haha. It's all in good fun. It's just funny how the Huskers just find a way to piss down their legs each time at the end: In 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2023, and 2024. I recently watched the end of the highlights of all of those games here on TH-cam. It's become so comical that even some Huskers fans are starting to laugh about it in the comments, "snatching defeat from the jaws of victory", lol. Some are understandably very angry, too. I can see both outlooks. Congrats on your curated collection. You have a nice space down there. 👍
@medmuscle yes my wife every year is a huge Hawkeye fan and she's like oh Nebraska is gonna win this year and I'm like nah... They always mess up second half 😂😂
Dude awesome game room! Love all the Nintendo stuff especially the Mario Bros 3 custom NES, that thing is sweet! Shadows of the Empire is one of my favorite Star Wars games! I used to watch L.A Beast a whole lot but haven't seen his videos in a long time. Always loved the "Have a good day!" Lol.
Merry Christmas / Happy holidays dude. It's been cool to see over the years how your room has progressed. I see you still have my little purple CRT on display, sweet haha
@@GoodTalkHQ it's great dude. I can usually set it to like 2.5 mphs and play my phone or even PS5 while walking. My job is very sedentary now that I run the computers at the plant so it helps me get my daily steps in
Lol. I've been really wanting to get some more N64 cases and stuff but maybe next year. I got my funds going towards hopefully a 4k webcam for videos and just got a series x after selling my arcades!
Yep. Its more manageable now and more of a private collection instead of a filler one. I think it works better this way. Easier to pick games to play now. LOL. Good to see you. I hope Tommy and everyone is doing good.
Thanks for the tour my dude. I might want to steal some of your style when I finally put my own room together. As of now, I just have a gaming corner; not much going on
Steal away!! LOL I hope to change some stuff around next year and try to figure out how I can actually hook most my consoles up and play them on the fly but right now, Im just happy where I am!
Its cleaner and leaner for sure! I got a Series X coming soon but I think that'll stay in the living room for casual gaming at night when my wife enjoys her tiktoks and I need something to do. lol
Great stuff, but you really did purge your stuff. lol. That coffee Zelda table looks fricken sweet. Was it a present for your birthday or Christmas? Just curious. Enjoyed watching .
I can't remember if it was for my birthday or our anniversary but she got it off someone on etsy. Its amazing! Yes there is a lot of stuff gone and some people didn't notice really how much. Haha. I should do a sideby sideby of last years gameroom tour and see.
Darn, when you said you slimmed down your collection you really meant slimmed down. I thought you would have more stuff. That said, tis a neat lil' collection of games and memorabilia.
Definitely more Private like now than before. My huge focus is gaming now and making good content instead of just buying crap. The funny part is those arcade 1ups are gone now and I used the money for a series x. Lol
Now that’s what you call a collection it’s personal and it’s humble and unique just the way it should be all killer no filler for you! Games that are loved and cherished! I agree with the arcade1up sales I sold my SF2 legacy cab before the first came out to Asia in January this year heavily modded externally loved it but it was just stood there all day everyday not used just a show piece and cashed in with it! Arcade1up as a whole is dead! LA Beast is the bomb I’m always trying to get my berrings 😂😂😂 “Have a good day”
I think if my son played it more or I did, I would have kept them. I think getting the $500 or so dollars for them both and it going towards the Series X is the better move.
@@IowaRetroGamerDad I agree they look nice all arcade1up a do but they literally become more of a talking piece instead of actually gaming on them! So cashing in is the way forwards
Dude its crazy. I don't understand why they do that sometimes. Maybe its from the periods in spaces? I noticed sometimes your comments get flagged on my head because of the periods occasionally.
I sold off a bunch but kept the stuff that meant something to me. Basically a bunch of filler titles and a few consoles. Basically the stuff behind my TV is my private collection game wise and the stuff in my PC backdrop is the stuff that was given to me or means something to me.
@Gameremporium thanks! Yeah I can't fit it all in my backdrop for my recordings but that's what stayed behind. I'm still slimming it down occasionally.
Lets goooo! Thank you all for stopping by the premiere and watching later on! I love doing these videos and will be featured down the rode on Super Retro Force one! Make sure you comment any questions you got about the game room! God bless!
How old your kids?
@eaal8387 late teens and elementary.

@wes773105333 that's a good idea. Lol
Amazing tour, brother! You've got so much mouthwatering merchandise, I'd have a field day in your game room! This was fantastic 😎
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for stopping by buddy!!
That's a nice Museum... I mean collection you got there big bro!
Thanks dude. lol
Room looks great Dad, glad you could recover it and get it situated!
Thanks! I'm hoping to change some things up and get some stuff situated a little better but I love the backdrop for my videos and its a pretty comfy place!
Dude what a unique and well curated collection!! Really enjoyed seeing your set up bro!!
Thanks a ton! Glad you stopped by to see it and left a comment!!
Glad you got back on track after the flood.👍
Thanks buddy!!
Please get sump pumps installed.
@mariokart8715 we do got them installed. It was just raining too hard and sewer was backing up
@@MichiganGourmetguy they just need to fix the whole sewer issue. It’s very old and needs to be dug up and fixed or possibly replaced.
Perfect place to game, reflect and to make TH-cam videos. Epic game room brother. Glad the flood didn’t stop you
Thanks bud. I got lucky compared to many people in my area but it took a lot of work and patience to get my sanctuary back.
Looks great!! 🔥
Glad you like it! I'm still working on getting it perfect.
What an awesome game room brother! Always enjoy seeing your annual tour and checking out your super sweet collection! Hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving with your family!

You are making people on internet jealous 😂. Awesome room dude!!!
LOL NOoo im part of the problem. lol
Awesome game room man! Game on! :)
Thank you 👍 :D
Great art wood craft
I got a coworker who does this stuff as a hobby and I know a guy from Nebraska thas really getting into it!
Merry Christmas / Happy holidays dude. It's been cool to see over the years how your room has progressed. I see you still have my little purple CRT on display, sweet haha
Oh yeah! I always keep the personal stuff people send me. :)
Heyo brother I hope you had a great holiday with tons of good food man!!
Oh yeah! I had to use my walking pad a ton after Thursday! Haha. Thanks for stopping by bud!
@@IowaRetroGamerDad bro I have been debating getting one of those, I think you convinced me to pick one up.
@@GoodTalkHQ it's great dude. I can usually set it to like 2.5 mphs and play my phone or even PS5 while walking. My job is very sedentary now that I run the computers at the plant so it helps me get my daily steps in
Absolutely epic game room brother! All killer no filler! It was actually super fun looking through the drawers LOL some epic stuff in there
Lol. I've been really wanting to get some more N64 cases and stuff but maybe next year. I got my funds going towards hopefully a 4k webcam for videos and just got a series x after selling my arcades!
You've really slimmed down the collection and set up ....but it's still cool Zak.
Thanks for sharing mate
Yep. Its more manageable now and more of a private collection instead of a filler one. I think it works better this way. Easier to pick games to play now. LOL. Good to see you. I hope Tommy and everyone is doing good.
can wait.better then black Friday lol
Its hard for me to not release videos right away!!! lol
Thanks for the tour my dude. I might want to steal some of your style when I finally put my own room together. As of now, I just have a gaming corner; not much going on
Steal away!! LOL I hope to change some stuff around next year and try to figure out how I can actually hook most my consoles up and play them on the fly but right now, Im just happy where I am!
Even leaner than expected! I would like to pare down, maybe not to this extent, but holding onto only what youll actually play seems the way to go.
Its cleaner and leaner for sure! I got a Series X coming soon but I think that'll stay in the living room for casual gaming at night when my wife enjoys her tiktoks and I need something to do. lol
Cool room dude! Love the simplicity. That Lyman NES is bad ass!
Thanks, man! I like how it's coming together! Yep!! Russ makes some awesome stuff!
I like you setup a lot!
My setup is nothing like your's. Your's is so clean! I love it!
Thank you so much! I try to keep it organized. Its hard sometimes. lol
@@IowaRetroGamerDadI am in the process of obtaining more merch and stuff for my gaming room. Thanks for this video. I really enjoyed it.
That was Epic
Thanks!
Let’s go!
It took a while but it's coming lol
Zelda oot boxed ✊
Another good video
Glad you enjoyed it!!!

The king of complainz ironic ❤❤❤
*iconic
Those are 2 of my favorite movies too, respect.
Back to the Future 3 is actually my favorite from the trilogy!! Its the most nostalgic to me.
Let's Go
Yeaaaah buddy!
Now that’s what you call a collection it’s personal and it’s humble and unique just the way it should be all killer no filler for you!

So cashing in is the way forwards
Where did the consoles on the bottom shelf on your TV stand go and what were they?
@@mariokart8715 they were just moved over to the stand behind me. It was a Wii u and og Xbox
They stopped working or not? Will you need to replace them?
@@mariokart8715 no I just didn't have them hooked up. So I moved them
Having Metroid Prime and not Prime 2 is a crime
More of a crime.. I never prime even though I own it. Lol
What was the hot sauce?
The king of Kong one? Lol I'm not sure. It was a gift and it has bily Mitchell on it.
Sweet alliance of guilt
Ho ho ho
nice collection youtube deleted my comment
Dude its crazy. I don't understand why they do that sometimes. Maybe its from the periods in spaces? I noticed sometimes your comments get flagged on my head because of the periods occasionally.
I want metal gear Nintendo complete with map and shit 💩 😊
That'd be awesome!
I thought you sold off most everything
I sold off a bunch but kept the stuff that meant something to me. Basically a bunch of filler titles and a few consoles. Basically the stuff behind my TV is my private collection game wise and the stuff in my PC backdrop is the stuff that was given to me or means something to me.
@@IowaRetroGamerDad oh that is really cool!
@Gameremporium thanks! Yeah I can't fit it all in my backdrop for my recordings but that's what stayed behind. I'm still slimming it down occasionally.
Where’s mk2 arcade
There.... Its gone now though. I sold it.
@@IowaRetroGamerDad is next to ya tv liar 😅
@@IowaRetroGamerDad don’t sell mk2 arcade give it to me 😅
Did u sell that GameCube?
Wow nes complete mint respect z
That's not han solo his name is dash render he was the hero of shadow of the empire unfortunately they also killed him off in that seires of books
Shows how much I know. LOL I always thought it was Han Solo growing up. He looks exactly like him on the game or so I thought.
I should look more into the book series. I got that soundtrack, the speeder, and this figure. I was finding stuff left and right for a while. lol
@IowaRetroGamerDad yeah there hard to find now
At least the audiobooks that are available on TH-cam. For free.🤷♂️
Only 2 nes games come on dude!!!
Huh? Theres a few and even boxed.
Barley any games lol
@@munchkincatdadGamer1976 yep compared to what I use to have.
