I feel like the 1ups is just a warning sign that your games are going to be low value. They figure how many games they have to add to get you close to value. So when I see that card, I think oh crap not again. 😂
I'm on my 2nd month of VGM. I only have N64, Gamecube and Wii U on my list. So far they have been fantastic. Worth well more than what I paid. Not sure if it was because I was a new member.
VGM has treated me pretty good in the last few months so I can't complain. I at least get my monies worth! I've been trying to get more n64 and gamecube games myself so I may do the same. Thanks for watching and commenting in man! I hope to see you for the next one!
If I had to guess. It's because GameCube games and N64 games are climbing up in price really fast already and Wii games are just about getting ready for a similar take off as well. It's probably smart that you only picked those consoles. I can imagine if you has PS2 and Xbox games and NES games they'd send you a bunch of a $4 games. I think the average price of GameCube games is $15 to $25 dollars and N64 is a little less than that.
I’ve actually been having some good luck with RGT lately... got a couple of $25+ games in super Mario kart and battletoads & double dragon in the past couple of boxes
I might give them another shot but I have been sticking to video games monthly for the last couple of months. Not too happy with my last few boxes... I hate loose disc based system games and video games monthly is full of them!! Thanks for the comment and I hope you enjoyed the video!
Yeah I've been doing VGM for almost two years now. I just recently signed up for RGT and will be getting my second box this month, trying it. I did a pretty funny intro to my first RGT unboxing you should check out. Looking forward to check out your channel and future uploads.
Hey man, thanks for watching! I look forward to putting out new content soon. Great intro to your video btw!! I am a subscriber for sure. Stay retro and keep up the good work!
Thank you for watching! If you liked the video, be sure to give me that thumbs up and consider subscribing to my channel for more. If you are into gaming, follow me on twitch: twitch.tv/whtabtbob Thanks again and have a great rest of your day!
You know how you get decent stuff with retro game treasure in the note section tell your doning youtube unboxing videos and I got a decent games and got out of my 3 month 4 box's
I was thinking about doing that but the general public doesn't have the same luxury so I want to show the unboxing more as an average Joe unboxing. Wouldn't be fair to let them get the leg up and have people assume that they will do that for them too. Still fun to receive any mystery retro box, even if it is a little under valued. Thanks for watching man! Hope to talk to you in comments in the future!
@@BobbysHobbies well to be honested it dose help much my may boxs I order a extra one by mistake. Had Conley wars and tiger woods PGA tour 08 so it really dose not help much plus I want to see what would happend and I olny have 9 subs and most of them get VGM and retro game treasure themselves so I dont matter much. Now if I had 1000 or not subs I add something like all boxs may vary and my have a small leg up or something like that..
@@TheNerdyGuy84 I can see them giving special treatment to people depending on their sub count! I prob would too if it were my business. Guess i'll have to raise my sub count and try it... lol!
Video games monthly stepped up their game though in recent months!! Check out my latest VGM unboxing: th-cam.com/video/XkqV032l2iQ/w-d-xo.html Thank you for watching and commenting!
my guy, you are missing what i might biasedly call the best retro subscription box yet: THE GEOFFBOX check it out on my channel, it's actually pretty cool and we're getting a lot of really good reviews
As much as I claim I will never buy into another subscription box again, they still tempt me! Haha! That’s cool to know that you have your own though... How’s business so far? Might have to do a unboxing video for you in the near future! Complementary box for video advertising purposes?? Will work for games... haha! Just kidding man! I’ll check it out. Thanks for watching and commenting buddy!
@@BobbysHobbies haha I’m grassroots af right now so I can’t do free boxes but I’d hook you up with a discount if you wanted to do it in the future Business is good! It’s just a hobby so nothing serious but I love making these
I understand... Gotta start somewhere! Just kidding on the freebie though. If I do it, would want to support your hobby not take away from positive cash flow.
@@BobbysHobbies I appreciate how kind you are which is why I enjoy watching your videos on my stream when we go through unboxing videos haha Thank you man, stay golden
@The tricky tick I tried good wills can't find a thing and if I do its priced a 5$ ... We dont have any mom and pop shops with games in them around me ... All we have is a gamestop....
@TokyoFool Lol, I’ve literally never even seen a video game in ANY of my local thrift stores also not everyone lives where getting to those places regularly is feasible.

Your TV monitor is showing like a Freddy Krueger figure. Not gonna lie that shit scary lol.

@@TheNerdyGuy84 I threw a Sub your way so let's go on this journey together!!
my ears ring when I watch this video, idk why, send help lol. I pause and unpaused it and my ears only ring when the video is playing.
Hes starting to believe.
So the moral of the story is stick to RGT over the other one
