Today we hunt at a Game Store that is loaded with the most expensive games I've seen! The Game Store owner didn't even know what all he had! Always on the hunt for retro games, vintage toys and 80s / 90s nostalgia at Flea Markets, Thrift Stores & Garage Sales! Thank you guy as always for coming along with me on my live video game and toy hunt thrifting adventures!

If anyone believes for one second that this dude didn't realize what he had....I don't know what to tell you. Nobody has a treasure trove like that and doesn't know what they have. I mean come on, Earthbound in the box!? Not one but TWO copies of Little Samson? Alot of good acting in this one😄
Nah, I found Cubeivore in a kid's consignment sale for $2.50.
Some people are really that ignorant.
Do not forget Clay Figther Sculptor Cut, two loose copies and one CIB!
Yea, suspiciously has a bunch of only high value things all put together, Clay Fighter Sculptor like come on lol.
@maryjoe9314 Fu*k**g Bot!
@@fivebrosstopmos this is a video game store with prices that are accurate for everything but what Rick touched. This is fake.
I was a manager in a computer shop in the 90's in the UK and to see the price of some of this stuff that I quite literally had in my hands every day blows my mind I didn't think to invest.
Yeah but in general it's the north American release stuff that is worth the huge bucks
@@6door6four96 not true any cib nintendo is generally v pricey. The values are v similar.
Brotha NONE of us thought to invest 😆. We just bought the games we thought were cool and played 'em until we beat it.
Mate, we've all been there. if only we knew then. Ironically youtuber's are mostly to blame for these over inflated prices, most of the high priced games are dog shit!
@@garrz32 THANK YOU! Finally somebody who agrees with me. These TH-camrs describe a lot of these retro games like they were the best thing out back then.
Dude's just sitting on $100k+ just in those bins. Absolutely insane.
Man with the condition of some of that stuff and how uncommon some of it is I bet you could list and sit on some of the rare stuff and make out with double that the market is crazy nowadays
500k easy
And totally fake
@@Dikwiliyou can clearly see they aren’t fake
@ericsalidbar1693 not saying the games are. The setup is staged
Title is a bit misleading, although he forgot he had 2 cib Samsons, he clearly knows what he has there. Also, Riff posted basically the same video months ago on his channel 😅
i was dying for you guys to overview that giant rack of big box PC games. retro PC games are sooooooo freaking sick
Dumb question, but how do you play them? Like do you have to own a retro pc for them to play on?
@@masonsheppard1236 for me personally its more about collecting them, but i do know people that keep around a Windows XP machine to play retro games on legacy hardware. i love buying back pieces of my childhood
@horNNN You can always just use a VM with an old windows OS on it. No need to actually have old hardware - same concept as emulation.
@@blwn2bts valid, I just wasn't about to go down the hypervisor rabbit hole in a TH-cam comment should there be follow up questions haha
@@masonsheppard1236 I have my olivetti 286 in its box, one day I will dare to put it into operation, perhaps.
I used to have almost every NES, Gameboy, and SNES game released in the US, except most realistic sports games (I only like the exaggerated sports titles like NBA Jam). Kept the boxes and manuals to all the games as well. I never ripped or threw them out either. Unlike most collectors, I did play the games that I owned and beat most of them, even the tedious ones like Mario Is Missing, lol. For my really favorite games I used to buy a second copy that I would keep sealed, for reasons unknown to me. I guess I was obsessed. My closet had more games and consoles than it did clothes and my family was pissed at me for it. They told me it as a form of hoarding and I needed to stop. One day in the early 2000s I decided to sell the games and systems I was no longer using to free up space. That, and I had discovered emulation, not just on PC, but on the Dreamcast. I had (and still do) a single CD with every NES game on it that plays great on the Dreamcast. It's crazy that people are now paying small fortunes for games that I use to buy brand new really cheap. Hell, there was a used game store about 15 minutes from where I used to live where they sold used games for $5 or less. Only the super popular ones sold for more than $5, and it didn't even matter what system it was for. If I had known that those games would have skyrocketed in value, I would have kept them because in present day I would have enough to buy more than a couple of houses and vehicles. Holy crap! Damn I should have at least kept the sealed ones, they were in perfect condition! But I will say that having freed up space is nicer in the home. Nowadays I focused on building machines that can play everything as to not clutter my home again like when I was younger.
I can tell this vid is old cause Rick’s beard is weak sauce in this video 😊
Yeah, I'm not sure what's up with Rick. No more videos on "The Retro Life" channel. Old videos on this channel. Hope he's ok.
@@groob33 I’m sure the store has him busier than ever, I was just teasing haha
@@omikeycanfly I hope so. That would be great.
I would love it if your crew did a catalog of game stores to visit. Like a highlight episode for each game store. :D
Map out the best places to stop in each state…that’s a big ask but if you got connections in different places maybe get their recommendations
@@theglitteringninja6403 I would say just where they live locally. But a list would be just as good too. 😄
Rick! That man is gonna sell you one of those Samson's when that's the only game you need to complete the NES Collection. Love these episodes man. Props to Riff for the great editing!
Makes me hate my brother even more for selling everything to EB GAMES
No way this is my local shop!!! So cool to see it shown off, its a great store and has been my go-to for years. Everyone stop by!
It's cool seeing these stores actually thriving and customers of all ages being in there.
Kris has an absolutely beautiful collection of just insane heavy hits lol. So nonchalant about it too. Would love to see him get into TH-cam more. Saw him on a pixel plus podcast and seems very knowledgeable and comfortable in front of the camera and mic. I’m sure he’s already extremely busy though
The old vintage game was the best I still own my Super Nintendo games. Super Mario super metros legend of Zelda donkey Kong country contra
Lol in a kind way I gotta point this out 👉 "this one has a little mark there" the game store collector games should all be wrapped in bubble wrap each for most of them instead of all touching each other which I'm sure has bunches of marks, edge wear.. Etc. I'm surprised these expensive games are like that. Then when people like that sell them they always expect top dollar and usually package them very poorly. People with money like this should be helping their family, the community, saving their money. Just play emulators! These games just will sit and not be used plus discs and cartridges don't last forever I read. People buying 5K shoes and up while millions have no shoes makes me sick. I watch Pawn Stars and Rick bought a tiny book for 100K and wanted to celebrate with wine while in Italy like it was a proud accomplishment. I would love to see people using that kind of money to make huge differences that matter. It won't make these millionaires poor to do that. Other than that I love video games and enjoy watching the videos. :)
The thing with Ebay is that exakt game in exakt condition can dip from 3000 dollar to 25 dollar. So how do iknow witch is the REAL price i can buy or get it sold for? is it a REAL todays value site some where and not what i want for it numbers? / Sweden!
Thanks for showing the market value of the items you showcase now. As a reseller it's really helpful. I think I recall that you didn't routinely show the market price of the items you spoke about in your videos. I'm glad you changed that because the absence of it caused me to not watch your videos for the longest as I'm not a collector as you are. Now as long as you keep showing marketplace values I'm going to watch your videos regularly to learn about hot items and what they go for. Thanks!
I am a collector as well but it is so hard to fund games for a decent price alot of people want market value on there games :(
100 ... King! Some one know if its a site somewhere thats have Legit values of games. Everythime im Seasching on a game on ebay or some where else it not legit prices. So iknow what i can bid on some games so i dont get scammed. / Markus from Sweden!
I think these stores are getting popular because the Gen X and Millennial generations are getting good paying jobs and are wanted to buy back their childhood. I love seeing all the stuff I grew up playing, but the prices make me wanna cry. That is why I haven't gotten rid of my NES and SNES consoles or games.
I agree alot of younger people in my area have fantastic wii and ds collections
facts..I stay buying old 80s BMX bikes and games..didnt have any real money until last 10 yrs
Who is going to be dumb enough to pay from 1000 to 3000 dollars for a super nintendo game? These video games store owners are wacky
Rick, where you at bro? No more videos on "the Retro Life" channel. Old videos on this channel. Hope you're ok.
Probably should remove those 20K games from the store and put it in a vault. Not gonna say more on the subject.
putting stickers on them devalues them dosnt it they should find a better way to price them
Video games had such irregular booms, at various times, that there must be hundreds of local small gaming shops like this one, with tons of gems laying around, without anyone knowing whats going on. The important trick here is knowing and being able to recognize what has value and what doesn't, outside of the few obvious titles. Well done.. love watching content from passionate collectors, even when I know nothing about it
If I was a shop owner and dude came to the front geeked af like he does I’d be like yeah maximum price for that one. Lol
Those stickers hurt my feelings
You can't convince me they don't plant games just to hype these stores.
Stop the cap just for clicks.... That's why they were put away separately. Who doesn't know they have thousands and thousands worth of games... Anything for views though right...
The TurboGrafx 16 thumbnail is what got me to see the video, but no TurboGrafx 16 nothing. I had subscribed immediately and at the end of video I unsubscribed.
Will you guys be at the CoMo Retro Game Con on April 22nd?
How about you start making believable content?
Those shop owner's plastics boxes are truly treasures chests.... It is insane the amount of money and value he got there. Just amazing!
I would love to just see those in person. Such a blast from the past
I agree the value here is insane but 50 years from now I can just imagine how much stuff will be worth
That Rad VHS would have easily been a purchase for me, grew up watching this with my late uncle so brings back memories! Still to this day listen to the soundtrack and always wanted a bike just like Cru...
The amount of late fees my parents to had to pay because of that movie was absurd. I now have it on dvd.
My parents still have a vhs player hasn't been used in years
Dude - love that area. 30+ years ago I used to be a regular at Sunset Beach just up the road from there. I live a bit further away now, but will check out the store if I'm ever nearby. Good times!
🤦🏻♂️ I really do enjoy watching his videos, I just don’t understand why everything has to be click bait. You never even showed the game and the thumbnail.
I'm 36 years old and this is all nostalgic and prices are only going up as my generation can afford it now
They all know what they have! Clickbait! Woo!
2 betas, 1 cup?
What a difference this store owner was compared to Mike from the last video lol !
Also the store owner looks and sounds like Brian Meyers ( Curt Hawkins ) mixed with Young Wicked (James Garcia ) lol
If you are ever in riverside CA there is a video game/skateboard shop called boardshops of america you would love it!
I was just in that store a couple days ago. I live down the street. Would’ve been cool to see retro Rick.
I'd pay 50 for a sealed RAD vhs everyday of the week.
If you brought that Id love to grab it tbh.
Hey Retro Rick you know you got the movie “RAD” and did you know in the bmx world there was a famous guy called “Radical Rick” he had a cool special colored bike you could buy👍🏻 he rode professionally for Haro!
*SKATE OR DIE 2!!!* was *NEXT LEVEL* with that backyard Half Pipe with the spine ramp in the middle 💯 Thanks for putting in snippits from the *Fulfill the Dream* *SHORTY'S* skate video too!!! Great video
Awesome store. The man is sitting on gold. I appreciate the content Retro. I definitely need to go by that shop to take a look for myself. Great content as always.
Imagine what they will be worth 50 years from now
@@khanthevideogamehunter2946 💯
Half of the USA don't know what they have. The amount of videos about scoring grails by the hour on TH-cam
Love the show and as a 85 guy I just love seeing it all. But I haven’t seen any slammers or pogs but they are on every intro? Cheers from the ca foothills
I mean, we had a barn find 1983 Ferrari GTO worth $296,000.
Why can’t he find something in a random store?
You would be surprised how many people are ignorant of the value of their old things, forgotten and or ignored.
That being said, these guys are friends and most likely just staging for entertainment.
I can't believe people are still getting started with set collecting. Brings back memories of the good old days.
I agree
BA BO SO..
THAT RAD VHS THOUGH.👍🏽 I Need to find RAD, AIRBORNE, THRASHER, AND THEY LIVE On VHS And I'll be done with VHS hunting. GREAT FIND.
SALUDOS FROM EDINBURG TEXAS THE VALLEY 956
Old school pc is the best
You better pop that copy of Crash and the Boys Street Challenge in. My favorite NES title, congrats on acquiring it.
Lincoln High ftw!
I’ve been trying to get rad on vhs and keep striking out. $50 is solid I’d buy that on the spot. What a good store find
Where is Magical Chase?
I meen... didn't knew YT did allow retro p0rn but here we are 😳
DAMN SON WHERE DID YOU FIND THAT!😂
That shot of the snowmans just chillin.... mad-ness
Bro your other picker friend Amazon scans all the barcodes. But Amazon is the most EXPENSIVE place to buy. ( I live in New Zealand). Surely you can make more selling others places than rip off Amazon?
Nice clickbait
Collecting magnetic media is not a good idea, as it degrades just sitting doing nothing. Similar to DVDs circa late 90s to early 2000s with disks de-laminating.
Retro game plus keeps all top end games for the owner, we have one in Milford Connecticut and I’ve been there when great games have come in and they’re immediately not for sale.
Epic finds dudes!!!!!!🎉
Classic Game fest in July, Austin Tx!! Please be there Rick! My son is a HUGE FAN! Ok I lied my son is only 1, Im the huge fan!!! 🤷🏽♂️
Rick - Do you guys sell any of your stuff online? I didn't see anything on FB. I am signed up for WhatNot & will be there on 2/22!
Whenever I think of NES I Alwayyysssss think of Crash N the Boys. That was my household competition game we played until N64.
Can anyone confirm that the sound effect used in Race America when the car drives over the oil spill is the same one as in R.C. Pro-Am?
I’ll never understand why some people go off prices based on what people are asking compared to what people are actually willing to pay (sold). Bomberman 64 hasn’t even peaked 1k yet! 🤣
wow you're in my hood! I wish i would have known to say hello... :( Retro Game Plus is my old stomping ground! I love RAD, Lori Loughlin and Bart Connor!
Rad is worth 10x that
I love the acting.
Skate or Die rules.
Sorry to say it but I still don’t see the appeal on vhs tapes.I try to collect all the 80’s & 90’s cartoons not on vhs but on DVD which is definitely clearer & sharper. Vhs tapes don’t last.Great video.😊
People say all these games are worth a ton of money but realistically they’re only worth that much money to only a handful of people. Games like Little Samson is not worth $2,500 to everyone.
I love all the Retro stuff except for VHS that's never going to come back it's just horrible quality it's a pain in the butt you guys are literally just throwing your money away
Wow I was so into pogs.the tubes of pogs... that was a one hit wonder summer. Excitement when they would all flip... mannn. It was like gambling as a child
Retro Rick Riff Great People Store And Games Pixel Game Squad Always Goes To That Store And Owner Tons Of Rare Games
When, where and how did the store owner not realise what he had? Fake clickbait videos like this should get demonetised asap. 👎 I’ll bet you even told the store owner about the video title, cause if you meant it you wouldn’t be able to show your face there ever again.
I just picked up NBA Jam for the Jaguar loose last week for $100
I wore out 5 copy's of RAD on VHS from my local video rental store my mom ordered it for me 13th bday on paper from Cali to CT and I opened it and still treasure it today it's in my game room
Last year I.moved and threw away 5000 vhs , 2000 dvds and 1000 blu rays.Didnt sell.Didnt donate. No regrets. 😊
Wow! What a find! Yeah, Westchester is not too far from me. What foresight to buy them all. Agree, didn't know what he had.
I wish I had that foresight year ago 😂
Somehow I came across a Yoshis world international version not for resale N64 game. Not sure what to do with it, probably ebay.
How is this possible.
They know what they had.
They had to. I mean, seriously. Are u kidding?
I just got me a Myarcade Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition mini arcade. I love it so much, I sleep with it at night.
Watching these videos punching air about trashing or junking old consoles and games growing up 🤦🏽♂️
Lol 5$ games at 400 come on now, people dont buy at those price shop and you will find under 20$ most games
Why does the Earthbound box and the NES games look gigantic in his hand at the start of the video
Wow! Rad.. this movie really bring back memories when BMX was the hype. ❤❤
Wow the prices at that store are just stupid ill never pay a retro game more then 20$ lol like my cib conquer bad fur day they just dont sell at those prices thats why its rare a game store that stays open .
my friend from CZ found in flea market nintendo French Smurfs :) like 400dolars :) for 1 dollar .
why so much hate in the comments? was it probably some acting and placement sure, i still enjoyed watching it and i guess yall did to cuss your commenting lmao live in happiness not hate and despair
I still think id rather just emulate all of my games. This whole collecting thing is a fad thats going to die off when people realize they started a generation of hoarders.
I'll be over from the UK in October and will definitely be heading to Huntington for sure 😁
A lot of cool stuff in that shop 😃I played skate or die back in the day on PC, so epic. Great video ❤
I remember seeing your vintage shirts with the Pokémon card price tags. Is this who you got the idea from?
Chris had a man bun! Bring it back for @PixelPlus Podcast!
Ironic that these things are only valuable because so many people over time have thrown the other copies away. The definition of one persons trash is a game collectors treasure.
this is a very well put together shop & that collection is absurd, huge props to kris
My favorite beach I'm in Bakersfield CA not far very cool place can't believe what he has
That's literally the most insane thing I've seen in a while. I hope he's got those games in a safe !
I'm sure he keeps all three plastic storage tubs in one giant safe, yeah! 😅
There just games not bonds or a life investment one minute its worth a lot the next 5 years its worth $200 bucks stop the madness please
@@mjj8560 Lol, these aren’t going down in price. You’re deluded if you think otherwise.
you know your right where im at card shops and or game/electric local pawn shops never seem to use all there wall space making it look bland
Man, wish I hadn’t thrown out all the VHS tapes😢 must of had about 100 of them
YES!!! The intro is back. It's my daughter's favorite part of the video!!!
Dude spoke truth.. we all ripped the box and we didn't know.. SUCKS
