Hey Rick, not sure if you know this, but if you mark over permanent marker with dry erase marker, you can usually wipe it off fairly easily.
Wow a kiosk for $600 that’s a killer steal. Also with plastic you may wanna see about having someone buff the scratches out rather then replacing. I’ve got a Wii U kiosk and a amiibo touch display I may be downsizing if interested
I've mentioned just yesterday on somebody else's (Froggy Flips) TH-cam channel, that I still got a Philips VideoPac (with a lot of cartridges, but the console itself probably doens't work anymore). Only had three game consoles in my life, that VideoPac, the first Playstation, and an Atari Jaquar, which I also still have in a box. Btw my grandparents, had a television in the 1970s, which had the classic game Pong installed in its tv, and it was also included with a Winchester shotgun, so you could shoot at a white block that came across a black screen. Greeting From The Netherlands.
crazy to think that this guy bought this from someone in my area this kiosk had to of come from a mcdonalds in either Mountain home or Batesville AR I probably played on this kiosk as a kid living in Cave city crazy I never see anything like this come up in the area
Wow so coool this guy has everything. Wheres this at
My brother had a lot of medical issues throughout his short life. The children's floor at our local hospital had a large play area and there was a 4 sided n64 qiosk in there that I'd play anytime we had to spend time there. It was awesome!
oh wow...so cool they had that for you guys to use when you were there
Sorry about your brother. I bet you miss and think about him a lot ❤️
I'm really sorry for your brother. I hope you and your family have found strength and comfort.
That sounds like a pretty sad memory though..
Wow that’s dark.
My neck remembers the pain of those Walmart kiosks. I seem to remember the GameCube kiosks being like the ice cream machines at McDonalds, always broken.
Hey! How was your day today?
Now wouldn’t that be something no ice cream and no GameCube
For me those kiosks worked but the controller would be partially broken like the thumb sticks would be chewed up or the buttons would stick. The only ones you could count on were at game stores, toy stores or Best Buy. I remember I played Halo in a Gamestop like a month before it came out. I had pretty much no interest in Xbox or even Halo, never was big on shooting games, but riding around in a warthog was so fun so I knew that I had to get an Xbox just to play it.
At the time I totally didn't think about how many kids pick their nose, eat by shoving their entire hands in their mouth, and then they aren't responsible enough to wash their hands the controllers were always gross..... Always greasy... Always had bits of french fry stuck in-between the buttons.
And I touched them!!!???? No wonder my immune system is top notch, it's been put through the most extreme scenerio
My mom worked at KMart, and they had the Virtual Boy set up there, when they got rid of it they let her take it for us! That’s probably the coolest memory I have of a gaming kiosk type thing
That’s lame
@@noswishers8752 no one asked for your opinion and let this person have some nostalgia in there life
Never heard of a Virtual Boy kiosk before! Got pictures of it?
I went to the Kemah boardwalk here in Texas as a child and the arcade had one. Only time I've seen one in person.
@@TorchicNidoran1994 It wasn't a kiosk, it was just a floor model or tester whatever you would call one you could try in store
I worked in the electronics department at a Kmart back in the early 90s, and they had a Virtual Boy demo kiosk with Warioland in it that I used to play all the time. It was awesome.
omg...NOW THATS THE GRAIL!
I remember going to KMart just to play Tertris on the Game Boy... good times!
When Josh said "it's just a GameCube in there." I thought he meant that it had the internals of a GameCube mounted inside of the kiosk, so it was kinda funny when the camera moves behind the kiosk and there's just an off-the-shelf GameCube inside.
Edit: Josh sounds exactly like Hank Hill in the best way possible.
My most memorable gaming kiosk memory is a GameCube one that was in my local gameshop. It had Pikmin on it, can’t remember which version though. But I remember playing on it for 30 minutes or more everytime I went there!
I remember those kiosk
You'd just stand there and play for 30 minutes?
@@nexxusty yeah. It was so fun you could stand there all day.
That's Sooo Cool his items were happily sold to You. I love it when I see a collector who meets someone with the same passion who is willing to let some of his prize possessions go to somebody that would care for them as he did. Amazing 👏
It’s called a crack addiction for quick cash
I could literally see the explosion coming out of your head looking at all of his stuff. Pure Treasure!! LOL
Yes! He has such rad stuff!
I remember the Gamecube ones from working at McDonald's. Having to go out and turn them on when I did early morning maintanence/cleaning, and taking a little bit longer to do so to make sure they all "worked" lol. I also remember a N64 one at Wal-Mart with Diddy Kong Racing, and playing that one so much. They are so much fun, congrats on that score Rick. This man's collection is incredible. Great video.
What state is that it? I’ve never seen them myself
@@Star_scr3am_2297 I live in Canada, so yeah, probably a country difference, I know it was fairly common in the provinces across the country from what I seen and heard
My local McDonald's still had one of these up until at least 2017. I was a freshman in high school then, and having grown up with a GameCube, it was awesome to see it there.
You had a GameCube? No way
@@Bobcat8188 Yeah, so cool right?! (hurhur sarcasm, hurhur).
Sweet Jesus you walked into a gold mine. It’s crazy to think there are people out there with this kind of collection of collectibles and you will never know. This man has so much 🔥🔥🔥. I’m glad you were able to film this man’s collection and make some deals. Amazing video to capture this.
That McD's GC kiosk is rad, I can't wait to see the extra decals!
I remember going to McDonalds with my family and playing with the N64 kiosks!!! Such good times!!
The kiosk i remember the most was back in 1996 at a blockbuster. It was summer and the n64 was right around the corner. I walked in to the store and at the time i had read every single piece of information about the nintendo 64. I was dying to see it or play it. I walked in to this blockbuster and there it was. Not the system itself, but just the controller. I was awestruck. it was like something out of a dream. I picked it up and held it and couldnt believe how much you could do with it. Before that system all i had was a super nes and a sega genesis. I got the nintendo 64 the day it was released. Thursday, September 26, 1996. I played through super mario 64 and beat it within 12 hours. No internet, no strategy guide, no help from anyone. One of the best gaming experiences of my life
Awesome. Sounds like a great experience. I had a good time reading your comment as well, just imagining what happened
I’ll never forget the day after school my mom took my brother and I to target when the GameCube kiosk was first on display. To see that orange alien looking controller. It felt so good to hold it in my hands.
The kiosk I remember the most was a SEGA kiosk inside a SEARS. I remember Kid Chameleon, Vector Man, Sonic Spinball and Aladdin being playable, but it had a time limit on it and it would reset after a few minutes. I'm partial to Nintendo, but Aladdin on SEGA Genesis was the only game I was ever "jealous" of, in the SNES vs. Genesis playground "console war".
Yes!!! Genesis was the first console I grew up playing
the most memorable.. early 90's, walked into Kmart to get a new nintendo. And there sat a super nintendo enclosed gaming experience I'll never forget. Star Fox was plastered all over it. I entered the enclosure and sat down, speakers were blasting, and I was blown away. Didn't play Star Fox again till the 64, but I'll never forget that night, that experience.
I remember a visit to Toys R' Us in the 90's. I encountered a demo kiosk for Yoshi's Island...unfortunately, the controller was broken. Yoshi could move left or right, but he couldn't jump.
My most memorable gaming kiosk memory is the NES one that was at the local Montgomery Ward playing Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Bros, and RC Pro AM. My mom literally left me there while she shopped with my little sister...good times!
Mine was quite recent, PC World here in the UK had just gotten a handful of Xbox 360’s on launch day that weren’t pre ordered and a buddy of mine had hidden one for me but I had to buy it when he finished his shift. I was super excited and got to the store really early and they had kiosks there with Project Gotham 2 and Kameo to play and I just played them both for like two hours, I couldn’t believe I was gonna get one of these on launch day - great memory.
I have so many memories of the McDonaldland late 90’s Nintendo kiosks. So much so, that I have an official fiberglass wall decoration of a french fry friend from my local McDonald’s my sister used to work at. She got it for me for Christmas two years ago, after the final remodel of said McDonald’s. But that’s getting into a bit of a tangent of its own.
One memory i have is visting a local McDonald's about 13 to 15 years ago when i was about 7 and going to eat and finding a n64 kiosks sitting in the corner. I didn't play it as some kids were already playing it but i enjoyed watching it.
my fondest memory of playing games back in the day was definitely when I went to best buy to play the demos. fell in love with the ratchet and clank series but also play some burnout as well from time to time.
I played the Vectrex at a gaming convention years ago and loved it. The effect can only been seen on that type of monitor and the games were fun that I tried.
Thanks for the vid! I remember the first kiosk i got to play. I was very young and they had a NES setup w Kung Fu at Service Merchandise. First games I got outside of Mario/DuckHunt on that glorious christmas were PaperBoy and The Legend of Zelda.
My favorite Kiosk memory isn’t from the kiosk itself, but from an ADVERTISEMENT for them. My local McDonalds had the N64 machines (one had Mario Tennis, one had Mario Kart 64, and one had Tigger Honey Hunt) and I played them every time I went there. Spread across the windows of the play place was a big ass sticker of the N64 logo with the words “We have the N64”. My biggest regret in life is not asking the staff if I could have that sticker when they got rid of it along with the machines, they probably would have gave it to me.
AMAZING Find! I used to play those with my brother when I was younger, I absolutely LOVE your channel, I'm jealous of all the neat stuff you find and adventures you go on, keep it up!
He always has awesome finds
Some of my best memories from primary school was after school going to McDonald's and then seeing my friend their and playing on this
The first time I ever saw an N64 running at a blockbuster video in early 1996. Blew my 10 year old mind. I had to hold off from buying ultimate mk3 that year so I could get the n64 instead.
would blow my mind now!
Well I remember Walmart and stuff. But, I remember going into sears and drooling over the Atari 2600 jr, 7800 and Nes. I started collecting Atari games in mid 80's at yard sales with my mom. The old NES was out and people was dumping Atari systems.
We had an old independent game trade store back in the early 90s used to go and play the sega mega drive that was set up road rash as the game of choice great memories.
So jealous. When I was a teenager in the late 90s we found the shell of one of those OG Gameboy kiosks that was essentially a 6 foot tall game boy with the TV and system missing. It sat around our basement for a few years, until my parents eventually returned it to the give and take section of the dump, as the thing was massive :-(
Makes u feel better my mom gave all my games away and my pokemon cards
do yall remember in the early 2000s the grocery stores with the play areas for kids ? they also had video game kiosks and were so awesome
My friend has the N64 McDonalds Kiosk, It has four sides to it and you can play 4-player games like Mario Kart. He bought it from a Mcdonald's in Largo Florida before they did a remodel of the store in the late 90s. The owner was glad to get rid of it. Kids would fight over it and break the controllers. He paid 400.00 for it
Just to add, he bought the kid's table and chairs "hamburger heads" too. He is a huge McDonalds fan and loves buying old stuff
That’s a holy grail piece for sure!
@@akoww1000 no way!!!
@@retrorick, He just traded for a machine merry-go-round "fry guys one" and a few playground items. Pirate slide, swing set, and the Big Mac tower. he got this from a junker who has a ton of Mcdonald's stuff. He was hired to gut old stores. He has a few broken N64 kiosks and GameCube ones " don't know if they work". But will try to get his business number and send it to you if your in to any of it
Wow! What a collection, would love to see more. I think you got a good deal Rick, enjoy!
The only memory I have of any kiosk like that at all was in Lego Land, when my family went on vacation, and one of my friends went along with me, and not only was there a Nintendo room in Lego Land, but in the caravan park right next to it (which is run by the same people and is also Lego themed) they had a WiiU kiosk in the grocery store, and we played Pokken Tournament on both the Theme Park and the Caravan Park and it was really fun! (I also got a WiiU for my birthday on that trip, so we played a bunch of Pokken and Mario Kart)
I saw a Dreamcast at toysrus and I couldn’t walk away the graphics were like nothing I ever seen sonic running down those San Francisco inspired streets 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I remember being in the hospital about 30 years ago and they had a Nintendo M82 on a rolling cart that you could book time on for your room. Best thing ever for a 10 year old
Back in '07-'08, my local sears had a gamecube qiosk that had metroid prime loaded on it. That was the first time I ever played a metroid game and got hooked on the series ever since.
We didn't have game kiosks here in Norway, but I spent a lot of time in the local toy store playing on the Sega Mega Drive and such.
Also, I would get really excited about the GI Joe stuff that Josh had got...
Here’s to more kiosk vids on TH-cam! That’s a real nice green one Rick. One of my earlier vivid memories is playing a McDonald’s N64 kiosk on my 3rd birthday back in ‘97 :)
I love your videos. especially the beginning music intro. I always mum along with the beat.
Haha thanks Jorge! So glad you dig the channel!
Nice connection Rick this guy has some heat for sure. Long box of Darkstalkers is so dope! 🧛♀️
Here in San Jose California we had “Sears” and in the boyish clothing area they had a N64 with Mario cart… and that’s where my mama bought me my first console. Pretty random but I know my parents miss that Sears. Pops says they don’t sell pants like they used to in those days
Ah, yes, I remember these. At my local McDonalds in Wauchula, Florida, they had one, but kids kept vandalizing it (one of the controllers was eventually ripped out) and fighting over it, so they had to remove it. It was replaced with a touchscreen game kiosk with timers so that children could take turns, but that was removed eventually as well. Nowadays, that space is completely empty.
My earliest memory of a game kiosk was in Walmart. My mom would go grocery shopping and there was this one kid who would hog the kiosk playing Banjo Kazooie for hours so I could only watch. That's how I managed to like Twitch as I got older but that's a story for a different time.
And that's why coin-op games exist.
So we wouldn't have to put up with hogs.
The McDonald's near my house had 2 Sega kiosks, 1 was Sonic and the other Lion King!
Oooh man I remember those McDonald’s kiosk’s!! The ones i saw back then were n64 ones with sissy king racing and wave race
Every McDonald’s in The Netherlands had a Sega Mega Drive with Sonic in it. I had one at home, so I was the king of the kiosk every time we went to get a Happy Meal.
I remember going to a McDonald’s in Scottsdale, Arizona when my grandmother would come down from northern Arizona to visit, when I was a kid, I remember the GameCube and PS2 kiosk very well and would play it constantly when I would go, then I remember one day I went and they took it out, that was one of the most saddest days I’ve experienced.
My favorite memory was we had a Toys R Us in Battle Creek, that was the stop for video games galore back then. They had kiosks for both Sega the SNES and Genesis. All the way up too the first Playstation, N64 and Dreamcast. The store is gone now. Then there was walmart of course and then there was Radio Shack that did that to and we did have a KB toys in the mall in Battle Creek, Michigan as well.
I remember a McDonald's around here somewhere had one of these. It was for Sonic 1. I played the hell out of it when I was there, it was awesome lol
man, that was ages ago though..
very cool! Those were def the days
at my dentist office there is an old kidzplace gamecube kiosk and i love it.
I would say one of my best memories of a kiosk was at a Hills department store back in 1995. They had a virtual boy set up for customers to play & the game was Red Alarm. Even though it killed my eyes I was blown away at the 3d graphics & the sound.
My most memorable game kiosk moment was playing the luigis mansion demo at McDonald’s. It was around 2002-2003 I believe, first experience with GameCube and solidified luigis mansion as one of my all time fav games!
I remember going to target and playing the virtual boy gaming kiosk, I totally wanted one!
I remember my Mom worked at Target and when I was little and be out with my Dad I would try to talk him into stopping there so we could "go see Mom". And then we would stop there and I would go straight for the virtual boy kiosk. We couldn't afford one and I thought it was so cool playing Mario tennis, probably because I could only ever play it for a couple of minutes at a time and the headaches didn't kick in. I'm still looking for a virtual boy to add to my collection to relive those great memories.
There’s always emulation in the meantime
Hills in the mid to late 80's had several Nintendo Kiosks, and my friends and I would walk there and get stuff from the snack bar and go play games!
I used to go play the Sega kiosk at our local Sears in the kids clothing section. Always played sonic and the tazmanian devil game. Was the best thing ever at the time. Always loved going there.
I got some stuff. Ps2,ps3,ps4 kiosk all 100% complete with unique systems inside with store marketing. I love it
Lucky! I loved these when I was younger and visited America
they are so rad!
Like millions of other people, the Mario 64 playing on a kiosk at Toys 'R Us. It was absolutely mind blowing.
They had a dreamcast kiosk set up in our local cinema with ready to rumble boxing in it. Love that game to this day!
I remember playing the N64 Kiosk at a McDonald’s near where I grew up. It was a McDonald’s in a Arco gas station that had a 4 console system kiosk
Yup, Starfox 64 at a Walmart kiosk. My friend and I would stop in after school almost every day to play that bad boy
DO A BARREL ROLL!
I remember there was one McDonalds we occasionally went to with N64 Kiosks playing Banjo Kazooie! I was still too young to understand video games, so I just watched the intro on repeat. Luckily it was a popular game so it was easy to find out what it was when I got older. Same thing happened with Spyro at a daycare I went to, but I did play that one. Had no idea what I was doing though.
Nes cabinet with the selection of games to try, in a Woolworth’s store while my grandma was shopping.
Seeing that huge kiosk for the Atari at Towers. Playing Zelda at a mall before the game came out (I forget which store, possibly at Radio Shack).
I have that exact tv that you have inside that McDonald’s kiosk 😂 I like small tvs for old consoles and hook up on the floor like old days
would spend WAY longer than needed at MCDonalds back in the day when they had these !!!!
My favorite KIOSK memories was playing the Sega Master System at a Kohls department store back in the day.. Space Harrier FTW!
What a score, gonna be sick when you got the mcdonalds stickers or vinyl or whatever you end up doing back on it lol. There was an n64 kiosk type thing with 3 or 4 different consoles on each side in a hospital where my mom worked as a kid and sometimes we would have to wait there for her to get off work or while waiting for an appointment or whatever and would get to play donkey kong or mario 64 on that until the time. Nostalgia af. That man has a nice collection too
Darkstalkers was my favorite Capcom fighter, such memorable characters and moves, even the music was banging.
Great Video -- I love my playchoice-10 as well, I don't think I'd ever part with it. 😂😂
Amazing scores Rick! That Vectrex is super sweet😀
I remember playing these at the McDonald’s at the mall when I was a kid so cool! I always think of the McDonald’s ones when people have a kiosk. I also had this haircut place as a kid that you could game while they cut your hair.
Me and my friend used to drive 15 miles from where we lived to go to a store called Apex in the Swansea mall in Swansea Massachusetts which no longer exists, we would play NHL 95 on the SEGA Genesis kiosk for like 2 hours sometimes until the manager would finally tell us we were being too loud we had to leave for the day. Awesome memories👍👍
I would always go play guitar hero at Walmart when my mom was shopping, I wish they still had kiosks in Walmart
PS3 kiosk with Motorstorm was always fun. It’d go up and show another kid the sixaxis control and their mind would be blown.
Man. No one going to comment on the MIB GI Joe 1988 Phantom X-19 just chilling in front of the Players Choice 10 cabinet!?! LOVED creating adventures for my Joes to go on back in the 80s as a kid... GO JOE!!!
For me that be the Super Nintendo kiosk at Videoland which is similar to Blockbusters. After school you could find me there playing Streetfighter against all the neighbourhood kids. Epic!!
That was awesome!!! Great score Retro!!
For me, there was a GameCube kiosk at my dentist and they had it for a while, it was fun to ask another kid in the waiting room to play double dash with them (that was the most common game they put in there), but then now they replaced it with an iPad and mobile games, wow.
I didn't play on any kiosks, they weren't around yet. My local pizza joint had a Donkey Kong machine I got pretty good at though!
I remember being about 5 or 6 and going to my local McDonald’s at the time and playing Super Mario 64 on one of the N64 kiosks
Double the collectability , , Food Folks n Fun , darn right 👍
when the ps2 first came out they put up a Kiosk at wallmart and me and my friend was just stunned at how awesome the graphics looked,,,we didnt think it could get any better then that at the time ah the good ol days.
No way! Vectrex is my holy grail. Had one as a kid and need it again.
When i was little I never went to many game stores but my most memorable was probably going into GameStop and playing mario kart 8 on the Wii U kiosk while my brother and dad bought wii sports resort and carnival mini golf and one other game that we have not used sense we bought it (it was also a sports game)
My best memory was when the N64 just came out before Xmas and the Hollywood video had Starfox 64 to try out on a kiosk. I played it with my dad and we both had a blast with the game. A couple weeks later my dad got me a n64 for xmas and a couple games including starfox!!! I grew up very poor so looking back I know my dad had to bust his ass to get me that for xmas.
I remember the n64 McDonald’s ones! My grandpa was a truck driver and as a kid I got to leave my little town a lot and see cool places and waaayyyy bigger McDonald’s that had big ball pins in door and these gaming kiosks!
Ps super glad I found your channel!
The Toys R Us gaming kiosks were my favorite memories of going to the toy store. There were so many systems to try out! ⭐
Awesome Scores I remember the kiosks in McDonald's
Thank you Rickey...loving this kiosk!
When the SNES first came out I would be outside KB Toys at the mall playing a little bit of Super mario because it was the only way I could play the SNES. I had the NES at home but SNES was so much better at the time. IT was the future hehe
My first official job was as a bagger at a commissary (military base grocery store) at 14. Every time I went on break, I’d go to the PX (military base department store) and play either StarFox 64 or Pokemon Snap for most of my break time.
My most memorable kiosk moment was Sam’s Club had a Sega Dreamcast under a flipped milk crate zip tied to the wire shelf with a demo disc with the first level of Sonic Adventure. I would play it over and over again.
so dope! I remember playing ready to rumble on a dreamcast kiosk
Played Dreamcast kiosk once and.it was some micro scooter game ,cannot remember the name of it but enjoyed it .
My local arcade/used game store has one of these installed in the center of their store for SSBM. Costs nothing to play, and there's always a line and a crowd of people watching even when it isn't busy
OMG RAIDEN PROJECT!!! In the BEEG Jewel case. I HAD THAT!! That was my JAM!!! even recently bought the Raiden Remix on Switch just for nostalgia of that game
Oh my God! I had a huge X-Men card collection as a kid, didn't realize how obsessed with them I was until I saw them flicking through them
