Who's excited for Friday's video where I reveal the ENTIRE 900lb Goodwill lot?? Let me just tell you... it's CRAZY. From all of the shops I visited in Episode 1, which was your favorite?
I remember visiting retro game stores in America years ago and even though Vegas had about 3 stores that aren't all too big, they were still exciting, especially considering the fact that in Australia retro game stores are practically nonexistant.
As a Tasmanian, I was amazed when I found one retro game store in Melbourne because there are none in Tassie as far as I know. Ever since EB games started the Zing Pop Culture thing which now takes up half of my local store I’ve pretty much just gone to buying games on EBay.
I'm tasmania too! It's such a shame we have literally nothing going! I have found this place called sb games which has been quite nice for xbox 360/ps3 stuff
i had no clue you lived in north carolina! seeing you say you were in huntersville, where i know some people are from and wearing an app state shirt, where i go to school, is awesome.
Bro I’m from nc myself and these videos are amazing man started with the 900lbs of consoles video now ima going through an catching up. Thanks for the hard work and putting these videos out!
I've been having some luck at goodwill lately been finding tons of guitars and controllers and even found a few super nintendo games as well. Glad to hear there is an actual location may have to check it out one day. Maybe I'll finally find the elusive Digimon world I've been searching for for years
Man, some of those stores remind me of this "little bit of everything" gaming store we had in my area when I was growing up (I can't recall the name.) They had everything from the newest gaming consoles at the time, PS3 and Xbox 360, all the way down to a game of Pong, and everything in between. There was so much cool stuff there like addons to systems you didn't even know existed in the first place for pretty much any consoles you could think of, as well as a ton of games for so many old and new consoles. I have so many fond memories of that place. I was sad the day my mom took my brother and I there and the building was empty and for lease/sale. T'was a sad day indeed.
I can't believe you were at The Grid! I don't think I was working that day, it would have been awesome to run into you there. Video Game World was a nice store too, I remember they had a nice selection in their glass case when I went. Great channel, Jacob!
Found myself a loose PSone bundle at the ValueVillage/Savers that was behind my home. Consisted of the console with power cord, screen, controller, memory card, 12v DC adapter for the car. Included Crash Bandicoot loaded inside. All for $30 Canadian! Was surprised with the quality of the LCD screen for something from the late 90's / early 2000's.
Lol try being from south africa, console gaming only really started becoming big here around the ps1/ps2 era. Trying to find a ps1 here that doesn't have some sus mod chip installed is tough😂
I had a PSOne in my car back in 2001 or so. It had a 3rd party screen though, Intec I think. I cut the wire and spliced it to my screens in the headrest so the PSOne would display on 3 screens in my car. Good times.
funny story about the slim Psone. I found one at a thrift store! it was just sitting near the loose electronics area NOT behind glass! and I bought it for only $5!!! so that means I bought a fully working PS1 for an insane $5!! but it had no adaptor nor AV cables. so It had to share the ones from my PS2. including the controller.
Glad.ypu picked up tarzan... one of the first of many games I worked on as a graphic artist after working on hercules :).... keep up the awesome content buddy
that screen was a big part of my childhood, i brought that thing everywhere. i remember playing it in the car on long trips with an adapter and my friends houses. i remember playing it in the car on the way to a restaurant if we were going out to eat lol

Love the PS1! One of my all time favorite consoles. Lots of awesome RPGs.
Im so excited for this series! :)

Do more IRL stuff like this Jacob!

Oh yeah I'm here for this, I'm here for this all week long.
Oh so much nostalgia of playing Tarzan on PS1.

Just started the video and no way Video game world!! I love that place. I always go there to just look around. Neat place that one.
Grade A content. I'm here for it all!
Bill's Truck Stop! I know that place. From Winston? King here!
0:33 NIKADO AVOCADOOOOOO......
you drove right by Bills TruckStop 0:49 i live 2 miles form there , you should have stopped by lol
Your crazy dude. Also you should make longer videos seeing how often you upload
Glad to see you out on the field this is refreshing
One got a ps1 with games on eBay for only 10$ such a steal. Didn’t even have cosmetic flaws
And here I am complaining that the nearest red light district is a 3 hour drive from me😂
Cant wait to see more videos like this great gaming finds
Watching from the UK. You guys have SO much more of a retro game scene. So jealous.
Not really. What you see on TH-cam is HEAVILY glorified. Most of us live in small nothing towns with no retro game stores around for a long while
@@geniusofuniversusyeah that's me
Lol try being from south africa, console gaming only really started becoming big here around the ps1/ps2 era. Trying to find a ps1 here that doesn't have some sus mod chip installed is tough😂
nice change of direction for your channel for a bit you look like your having fun

Some nice pick ups , love your channel massive inspiration to us smaller creators
that lcd screen is sick
FYI just check the copyright on the box if you wonder if it’s late 90s or early 00s
Tarzan was my first console game ever so it's nice to see!
He gave the game some scratches with that manual stop
Ayye didn’t know you were from NC too. There aren’t nearly enough retro games stores in the RDU area
i have the lcd ps1 screen i bought it years ago at gamestop when someone randomly traded it in and i only spent like 40 bucks on it
Nice find
JACOB!!!..CURRENTLY THE ALGORITHM IS IN YOUR FAVOR, KEEP UPLOADING!!

Do a road trip to dkoldies, imagine their reaction.
Why the Oh No on the thumbnail when everything is absolutely fine and your happy with everything??
I had a PSone with one of those screens like 15 years ago. I think I sold the whole system for about $40.
Glad.ypu picked up tarzan... one of the first of many games I worked on as a graphic artist after working on hercules :).... keep up the awesome content buddy
I love the grid when I visit charlotte.
My local game store VideoGamesEtc
I noticed had a ps1 with screen . I passed it up and bought Resident evil Dead aim instead haha .
Moline Illinois
this is BA! finding hole in the walls for gamming love it!
I really enjoy your videos man :D
Gonna love this series .
I had no clue we were neighbors I live by Raleigh too!
I hope he gets some good stuff in the load
You should have checked out the video game cavern in taylors south Carolina its about 20 mins from 1 up and alot bigger
I sold my 360 Collection for 30$ and you buy wifi for 10 😂😂
Can't believe that Goodwill look like a game store WTF I don't think I've ever seen that much game stuff in a Goodwill
The psu for ps1 screen has bigger wattage due to powering both the ps1 and screen. Th og ps1 power supply will power them but eventually blow it.
I bought the PS1 LCD screen new for 130 from Amazon in 2016. It really shot up in a short period of time.
Hi. Could you use the screen to play Time Crisis with one or two light Guns? Best regards Lau
Great content Jacob keep it up!
“I’m not gonna manual stop this one it’s a $60 game”
3 seconds later
*Manual stops game*
from raleigh? same here!
Bro! I work at video game world in Greenville sc! Sucks you didn’t Stop by!
You really should’ve tried out the video game cavern in South Carolina. They have literally every generation of console.
1up games is the worst game store in the Greenville area, when I'm in that area I never bother stopping as it's a waste of gas and time.
I live around 3 hours away from Austin
Jacob = one of the nicest TH-camrs. Proud to subscribe.

@@js02 you go first
Idk if you’ll be near Dallas, but we have a place called “Game Xchange” that has a bunch of retro games, consoles, and controllers.
I went to a few game xchanges on this trip - you’ll see some today and tomorrow
@@jrob0021 sweet man!! Hope you found some stuff
that screen was a big part of my childhood, i brought that thing everywhere. i remember playing it in the car on long trips with an adapter and my friends houses. i remember playing it in the car on the way to a restaurant if we were going out to eat lol
Go to lbk tx for Ralph's records that's my fav if u can
BRO WHERE DID YOU FIND THESE OLD CONSOLES LOL I NEED ONE TOO XD
ohh shitt jacob posted a new vid 🔥🔥🔥
It would've been funny had he stopped at DK oldies.
I did not notice.. how tall this man is..
I feel like I'm watching a show on a streaming service or on cable
I would actually pay to watch that on tv
@@vagamer522 oh yeah same

She?

@@danh2134 idk

WHO'S SHE?
The GRID is an abomination. Donated goods that 98% are marked above eBay prices.
RALEIGH REPRESENT!
I actually have twisted metal one long box. Actually, I got it for $20.
Crazy
Is the lcd screen rare i have one
How is the Video Game World much better looking then the one I went to in Concord Mills
I think Huntersville is their original location, so I’m assuming it has all the good stuff
Jacob rules!
That Vectrex machine spotted at 2:15. I want one so bad
I just left Texas lol
Little different for your content. Kinda like it!
