I love how the fact that he was replying to kids had no effect on his answers and he said it true like he always does. “They piss me off every year” lmao. Also, I like this kid
I’m not gonna lie his thinking isn’t really a bad idea it isn’t like he’s ask for a mil and he’s right about all these other players taking chump change they Needa make a union lol
He's spitting facts! 2K is making SO MUCH MONEY from all the VC they're selling and all the MyTeam b.s and they can't even donate to the retired players association!?
I agree 2k can afford to give the retired players money, but instead they keep it all for themselves and as a result the game gets worse and the retired players still don’t have that much money
@@Nick-pg3dc I think they don't see enough value in him to do that... Bet if MJ said that in 2010 during the making of NBA 2k11, they would've done it.
its not even just vc look at all the sponsors in the game this year. all those sponsors are paying large sums of money. even the forced commercials they have in the game from time to time. theres soooo many sponsors, and they do the clothes sponsors like every couple weeks
Derrick Winding the point is he wasn’t and they didn’t start getting paid millions until the Larry birds and Michael Jordan’s and magic’s so Charles’ point is the really old players never got paid as much so that’s why because he wants them to be paid and supported especially now that they’re older
I wholeheartedly agree with Charles here. When George Mikan, the NBA's first superstar and the man who (along with the advent of the shot-clock) saved the NBA from bankruptcy in its infancy, passed away in 2005, he was in financial difficulties to where Shaq paid for his funeral. That speaks volumes to how even a superstar like Mikan could face financial difficulties in later life. So I absolutely agree that contributing to the National Basketball Retired Players Association to help players before the start of the "Big Money" era of the league would be a commendable thing for 2k to do. It's a good thing Charles is a man of integrity since we know that no truckload amount of money will get him to change his mind until 2k agrees to his stipulation to help those before him.
True. I Drive by Mikan's Statue he has in Joliet Illinois for years like every week.. Most people don't even notice it or even know who he was.. But I do
NBA 2k20 sold 12 million last year. So off of just initial sales ALONE they made over $720 million. That’s not even taking into account all the other in-game purchases for VC or anything. Chuck is not wrong. They DEFINITELY could’ve made a million dollar donation.
its actually a pay to win game that every other company is trying to achieve without backlash every year the grind is longer, every year you get less vc, even patch to patch you get less vc. they make the game near impossible for the first month for a reason, so people spend money on builds or packs
All that money and they still refuse to upgrade their servers and use outdated technology. 2k needs to be threatened by better competition but unfortunately they dont have any other than other greedy company EA . Nothing will change until theres a mass boycott because 2k lazy af
they make so much money every single year and continue to make bc more expensive. they don’t hire enough devs that are actually passionate about basketball and it’s history which results in a shitty product year in and year out however it’s the only playable online basketball game on the market so people continue to support it. it’s disgusting what they do.
Someone make a petition for 2K to pay these retired players. Help them out if they are making millions of their likeness and people who pave the way for greatness to take place
@@davon6704 then they should pay the older players. They won't sell if they're forced to remove the classic teams. 2K needs them more not the other way around
His reasoning about not being in 2k is amazing, he’s a very smart individual. Loved he mentioned Patrick Ewing, the Knicks in those days were an amazing team.
scalping forever no need to be an asshole. An ignorant idiot like you does not understand how much a company like 2k makes. They sell the same game every year for 60 dollars. Don’t try to defend them 2k fanboy. 2k make millions and possibly billions with vc. And chuck isn’t even close to being rich as a company. Dumb 10 year old
Thank you for being in nba jam arcade 1up. Respect to you for lookin out for others not just yourself. Need more of that in the world instead of everyone being greedy as hell. Still my favorite bball player of all time.
So you don’t want to give the old retired players money? That’s how you gon play it? Ok, fine. At that point it became personal for me. - Sir Charles Barkley
Its funny cuz this is real shit to take personally. MJ would have been like “I told them to make my player rating 100. They told me that player ratings only went up to 99. And that’s when it became personal for me.”
Cool video and that really was a great question, Charles gave an answer I never expected. It's a shame they won't just honor the deal he proposed because they make an incredible profit from having the guys in the game so why not pay it forward. Keep grinding and be yourself and I can see you making it. It's cool to see how genuinely excited you are about talking to Charles, most kids today don't care about the past greats.
And this is why Sir Charles is my all time favorite. A total monster in court, but also a soft heart. A badass and a good guy. He’s the reason why I got into basketball. This is a nice video!
2K is so corrupt. They make a game EVERY year so you have to spend at least $70 a year to get the regular game. Then you have to pay loads of money for MyTeam stuff and to upgrade your MyPlayer. The game is pretty much a copy and paste besides changing the rosters and adding rookies.
He's talking to you like he'd to talk to a friend, so much respect to a down to earth guy like Charles. When he's talking im open and receptive to his opinion because I know its coming from his heart.
WE NEED Charles AND Reggie Miller!! PLEASE 2k!. Come to some agreement.. THE downloadable contant idea was a great one. I'm sure people would pay for those two players and it should go towards the retirement fund Sir Charles mentions in the video... Great question by the way!! ive had the same puzzling question for years now
@@Nick-pg3dc they should make Chuck's proposal trending in social media, that'll wake those effin billionaire game developers up. That's a pretty noble suggestion from the Chuckster. Non-star players from the 80, 70s and 60s (if they're still living) probably need some financial assistance like any regular old folks. Good of Charles to think of their plight.
N you definitely don’t. But if the only way for a company to get a player or celebrity’s likeness is to pay them, then they do. You can sign a name and likeness release agreement completely for free... coming from a law student.
We were witnesses of the first questions asked by a future (hope so) journalist, great introduction and nice job at stating the questions with such confidence !
I honestly thought it was just something of a pride for him but now him explaining why I respect him a lot more for his reason and it’s very true what he saying, it’s not wrong
You’re an unbelievably well spoken journalist! Stay grinding my dude, before you know it, people will be asking you how you got there! Next generation looking bright already!
The fact that he exposed 2K on this absolute bullshit years ago and they STILL apparently continue trying to low-ball him every year is just a testament to what a classless, grotesque company they’ve mutated into.
Good words from an NBA Great ... And even better message about how much the game has evolved ... All the new players breaking the bank with new extensions or deals and complaining about not earning enough ... But an older player's yearly salary is probably a 2020's weekly if you think about it ... Great that the kid knows who Charles is ... And also good hearing from Charles on his reasoning and what should be done ... And still can be done ... Imagine the kids in the generation learning about Wilt Chamberlain Dr. J... Bill Russell
Well said Mr. Barkley. I'm all for this. I've never owned any of the 2Ks but if they started making more charitable contributions like this, some more people like me might feel like throwing in our share.
Someone start a “We Want Charles” trend so 2k sees what it’s about. Also to become aware that we know the reason why Charles isn’t in 2k. The goal would be to have 2k pay those vets Charles is talking about and have Charles finally in the game.
Chuck is understandable why he isn’t in 2K first of all paying to be in a game, 2k already gets a lot of money for people buying their game. And also the face scans don’t always look the best
Respect to Barkley looking out for those that paved the way, so he could benefit today. All the players should think like this since it's a brotherhood.
I think him asking for the million a year is kinda under selling it too tbh, a million shared between all them old guys works out to be a tiny amount each really It’s a shame lebron and the current players who get paid huge money don’t join Charles and force EA to give a fat cheque to the players association every year that is distributed amongst them old pros etc
Charles Barkley is an S tier human being.
I mean he threw a guy thru a window so I’ll give him A tier
John Johnson that makes him an S +
Wait so a low tier human decides who’s a high tier?
The Second doesn’t matter what tier anyone is you can judge someone’s character with honesty, good try tho
John Johnson, Ok so what tier are you?

Thats what i was thinking lol
RIGHT!..Maybe This Generation Has Hope After All!😭🙌🏾💯....
Everyone knows the inside guys even the kids because they are in 2k besides chuck
Among other things I’m guessing the last dance documentary definitely helped younger kids realize how good Barkley’s NBA career was
It’s Charles Barkley
I love how the fact that he was replying to kids had no effect on his answers and he said it true like he always does. “They piss me off every year” lmao.
Also, I like this kid
Thanks
2K pisses a lot of people off every year tbh so it’s not surprising he said that
2k pisses us off every year too Charles... Sincerely, the 2k community

If Charles was Jordan they would listen. To his demands
Yea it's hard to ignore a legend but impossible to ignore the goat
Astackz_w170 jesup Problem is he is not Jordan and doesn’t have pull like that.
Also jordan is a player ppl love to play in old matchups because hes the most dominant 2k player ever..
Fun fact: Jordan rarely appeared in basketball simulation games before 2K.
Jordan is directly associated with the NBA as an owner so he's probably included in the contract with 2k and the NBA.
I really want him in 2K he’s the goat
Yeah
Me too... All-Time suns ain't shiz without him. All-Time Sixers would do so much damage with him.
I always create Charles Barkley’s .
Yea Reggie too
