Video Idea: switch the screens on the DS (bottom screen on top and top screen on bottom)
this sounds insane
i love it
this is the chaotic energy i’ve been needing all my life
Finally, left handed folks can play hotel dusk
the true nintendo switch
Playing sonic rush on that sounds like a fun trip
It's like elliot is living through christmas before christmas
Does it really have to be Christmas to unpack or open stuff? It surely possible to have Christmas every day or just regular.
I heard there's someone who celebrates Christmas every day.
@@Ruby_Mochii but then it's no longer a special day its just the same as every other, plus Christmas should be about family not gifts
@@TheThirdEnergy i never said it was all about gifts. What I was just saying is you can do whatever you want, it doesn't have to be a special occasion, it's up to you. I won't judge.
And yes you could say that it would just be any other day.
Dude, just wanted to thank you for near daily content. I'm a new viewer and you made me love retro content. You're really wholesome too :D
Ah thanks bro!
@@TheRetroFuture No problem tee hee
gameboy christmas
hello cyranek have a nice day

Sendico: how many Gameboys and DS's would you like?
Elliot: Yes
Sendico: So how many?
Elliot: YES
Senico: PLEASE TELL US
Elliot: *_Y E S_*
Sendico: TELL US!
Elliot: YES!
Thank you for putting me on Sendico! Gotten 5x packages in the last few months and shipping to California only takes ~3 days! DMGs, PaRappa Toaster, Neo Geo Pockets...my collection grows.
It really grinds my gears that Japan got all the cool Club Nintendo rewards
10:36, "don't know what that is"
me: looks at the brain age trainer head dude that everyone can recognise
personwhodumb i have that exact game 😂😂
"including my girlfriend" LMAO
No girlfriend was harmed in the making of this video.
Confirmed chad
@@TheRetroFuture good
Good, I almost panicked!
No middle finger
„The lanyard is still sealed“ toss it away anyway 😂
Wow! Never knew these display only GBA's were so rare! Thanks for always updating my retro knowledge Elliot :)
this is EXACTLY the kind of content i need rn ☺️ i find these videos relaxing to watch and interesting to listen to
the joy i felt watching you during this video is amazing. so happy for you man!!
Omg 😱 thank you so much for liking my comments it’s just that I really wanted a console like that or something else for cheap but since I’m a kid I’m to late since corona virus
Title : Unboxing 500$ Of Japanese Gameboys!
Me : Sees DS in the thumbnail
I gave the 2ds 3d for no reason please
big brain idea
A stroke of genius in my opinion!
The 1st gen one of course, the non-hinged one. No fun in a New 2DS XL with 3D after all
Sendico is great, Im waiting on a Neogeo Pocket color and a handful of gameboys. Just dont get surface shipping its takes forever
10:37 the game on the right is Brain Age. the game on the left is something called "Magic Encyclopedia." I googled the name in Japanese and it's apparently called "Master of Illusion" in the US and "Magic Made Fun: Perform Tricks That Will Amaze Your Friends!" in Europe
Elliot bought a lanyard. Very strange year indeed.
i love Sendico
Your videos are always so awesome Elliott. It gives me that nostalgia of those good old days of being a kid.
Keep being awesome!!!
Omg 😳 this is sooooooooooo nice I’m crying from the nostalgia overload thank you so much for posting this memory lane
Dude I found your youtube channel yesterday while searching for emulator handheld consoles. You got me interested and i'm spending all day watching your video's. Thank you for all your uploads🙏🤙🏻
I just wanna say I love your content about gameboys I just found your channel and it’s amazing. Continue the great work.
That warm feeling you get when one of your new favorite channels starts talking about one of your older favorite channels.. aauuh
I love unboxing videos 😭 awesome vid once again
You're vids are popping lately elliot, keep it going!
Dude this is insane. Thank you for the vid I'm checking out Sendico RN
When I was living in Japan for 9 months I loved going to Book Off and Surugaya and just looking at all the amazing nerdy stuff that’s so much cheaper. As a manga fanatic, getting manga for less than a dollar each in perfectly readable condition was nuts. And walking into Surugaya and just looking at the walls lined with video games... well, it’s kinda special.
Excellent stuff, some great videos coming up then! For some reason I got really excited by that metal cartridge holder, awesome way to display a couple of loose carts.
Its one of those obscure channels, very great content!
Oh hello there person from the future
we watched this on covid 19 times
and we had nothing to do
until this guy came
I'm from 13 hours in the future, and this video is our only hope. All has been lost, but Elliot has become the world's saviour by doing unthinkable projects for no reason.
Lmao jk
I have a lot to do wdym
You really helped me out with Sendico my dude. I managed to get a Rayearth Game Gear for $67 and A working DS in box for $0.30
I never knew about sendico and I’m psyched to learn about it, thanks for the video!
Is this the way Sendico celebrates your birthday I love it! Lots of content for your next videos yeeees :) Club Nintendo rose chrome one is my fav. I hope the separate video will come soon.
I've never seen such joy opening up those packages and tbh, if I was there I would be exactly the same.lol
I can never find a huge lot of just consoles on sendico. Awesome find you got there
I love this and cannot wait to see the upcoming content. Keep up the great vids.
Finally another video ive been waiting for ages started watching 2-3 year old videos
Haha sorry!
That's ALOT OF Gameboy's! I hope you use them well!
Recently discovered your channel. I have LOVED each and every video and have properly binge watched for the last several days. Now I find out you’re friends with Ashens😳 Subscribed and notified. Ashens is one of my absolute favorites.
Thank you for the website! I bought a cheap gameboy color in a box that was in pretty good condition there
Millions and MIllions of gameboys ...
btw getting entertained by your videos during quarantine
Thank you for making my Recommended much better.
I've been looking for one of those ds lite's for so so long.
The fact that you mentioned being friends with Ashens made me incredibly happy, both of you are GOATS
Great video! So many wonderful items
Oh wow! You've befriended Ashens! Great to see awesome youtubers supporting eachother :)
Your first vide were very reminiscent of his oldschool vids 😁
I think that box contains happiness
Thanks Elliot for showing us Sendico, i found/won a boxed N64 with games and accessories, some boxed Pokémon games and non-boxed games on there for a really good price
I’m 12 and got a game out for Christmas and months before I was yawing my brothers and he was saying how he got his on Christmas and it was the best feeling and I got to experience it myself:)
Woah when I saw the silver ds (at least it looked like it) my heart jumped because my very first console was a silver Ds which unfortunately the top screen turned white anytime it wasn’t in a specific position. I still have the stylus for it, but your welcome for the bit of nostalgia you didn’t ask for
WOW mate you have outdone yourself
That pink gold ds lite is absolutely gorgeous.
Love watching Elliot geek out!
I live in Akihabara, You do not believe how much of this stuff I have lying around my apartment. I moved from the UK and its so overwhelming you just buy everything!
Right! Basically the rose gold ds and “kinda” those display units are the only things of value in the package. Everything else is easily found at second hand shop junk bins 😛
@@FalseDigital Maybe I'm jaded from living in Asia for so long, but I spent this whole video feeling, this is all complete junk. So much of this stuff sits in shops and auctions for nothing and never sells. The fact it cost $500 shocked me. I was expecting something actually exciting. You can get incredible things from Yahoo auctions, this is basically rubbish. I guess this is just content and doesn't really reflect real life anyway, it's just something to throw up on TH-cam.
@@ES-qm5hr - Nah, I feel the same way. I've been living in Thailand for the past 10 years and make yearly trips to Tokyo. It's amazing what westerners will pay for this kinda stuff. That being said, I should probably cash in a bit on the hype. ;P
@@ES-qm5hr - I found the rose gold ds lite, buy it now for 5,000 yen.
E S some of them yeah especially the ones that are obviously used.. but that mint in box white ds like he got i would defenitely be sold on.. thing is my old ds is one i’d rather not use till i can fix it (it needs a bottom screen fix as the touch screen is cucked it still shows things just fine it just doesn’t register on one strip at all and the rest is just off. That and the hinge is loose on one side and cracked on the other.. it has some sentimental value for me since i got it from my grandmother after my original ds like had given up on me the card slot was broken and my stepdad though good with repairs said he couldn’t replace it.. even though it should be a relatively easy fix.. i played on that thing day in day out so when my grandmother gave me her ds i was very happy because i’d be able to play again.. it still works when it comes to playing games to this day i even have a gameboy advance sp that still works fine heck even my old pokemon games still work as intended normally you hear stories of the internal battery running dry and it not saving from then on.. yet that never happened to any of my pokemon games and to this day i can play any of them no problem wich i am happy about because well i take pride in this childhood collection.. i’m currently still looking for a few though i’d like a copy of crystal,emerald and both the black and white 1 and 2 because those are still missing from my collection i never got around to buying them.. i know there is still copies around and being sold online but i’d prefer buying one second hand as some of the copies online still to this day go for launch price or higher)
this was such a cool haul
The grey “battery pack” at 2:53 is just the DC power module for the Official AC adapter. At 10:35 the game with the polygonal head on it is one of the games that was branded under the “Brain Age” name in the states. Can’t wait to see inside those display SPs!
Thanks for sharing that with us buddy.
Holy cow man I wish I could get all that. Can't wait for the next videos
Yes, we need videos on these accessories Elliott
That box was like Mary Poppins bag but full of retro goodies, holy crap I want all that stuff very cool video Elliott mate... Mary Poppins Y'all
Merry Christmas mate 😃
i love this channel.the best channel on youtube!!!!!!!! i love you.
Best intro ever.
Bloody hell mate... What an epic haul of stuff 👍
those display SPs are awesome haha, so cool
Lol, that opening was funny ! :)
Is that box just never-ending? It’s like an infomercial where the host is like “WAIT, there’s More!!” I say this with love
Love your channel (and your british accent) :D
I love that Club Nintendo calendar.
Hey Elliot, just a heads up on that "Nintendo Gameboy Advance Rechargeable Battery Pack", that's actually just an AC Adapter (AGB-008). I had this as a kid with my old glacier purple GBA. There is an official battery pack (AGB-003), but it pretty much just looks like two AA batteries fused in a cartridge like you'd find in a lot of digital cameras from the early to mid 2000s.
lol I totally just did a sendico unboxing video myself ahah
such a good service honestly. my collection would be nothing without them. Highly reccomend
Awhh! Thanks for supporting them & me!
10:39 English release was "Magic Made Fun" (EUR) or "Master of Illusion" (USA). A complete Japanese version can be useful because the deck of playing cards (needed for about half the game) tend to be missing from used versions. You can't substitute for any playing cards either because they are "magic cards" (contain secret marks so face down you can tell what the card is) which are arguably more useful than the game ever was.
Amazing video buddy :D
That white ds, for real tho, took my breath away. Amazing.
I ordered a DMG from eBay a month ago. Came with a Handy Boy, unopened original headphones and unopened link cable. The headphones and cable weren't listed in the auction. I was stunned!
That rose gold DS Lite is charming!
Oh shit, I love Ashens! Been watching him since like 2006!
Wow amazing all that !! The ds chrome awesome
2:50 "It comes with the official Nintendo rechargeable battery pack"
That's actually the adapter tap from the official Nintendo Adapter Set for GBA. No battery. I have a bunch of them new and sealed in US packaging. The official rechargeable battery in Japan was a two-piece kit with AGB-003 and AGB-004... never officially sold here in the USA but I got one from Japan. It also fits Wavebird but not Wii Remote.
I DIDN'T KNOW YOU KNEW STUART ASHENS I'M FANGIRLING SO HARD HE'LL LOVE THE LANYARD!! xD
I love how enthusiastic he is now
The fact that you name dropped Ashens only proves that my favorite content creators are all linked in some way.
I don't know how.
I‘ll sure as hell check Sendico out!
Definitely something I'll have to try out
Had a friend in Japan that worked in the refuse collection and he mostly have a collection of old gameboys and consoles. Must be awesome dumpster diving in Japan xD.
That white DS Lite is crazy! Brand New.
Hey man, I really love your content, keep it up! I also got a mod idea: Put a GBA (SP) in a GBC Shell. Would be awesome!
At the beginning I was like "meh" but there are some real gems in this collection.
I forgot the name of it but I had that magic game for the ds as a kid! it comes with the game and a deck of cards and the game itself teaches you magic tricks! so fun! Hmm I wonder if I still have my copy? I doubt I still have the cards.
Very cool stuff!
Finally he made an unboxing video i miss it
You have really have helped me out Eliot I just got Mario sunshine and Mario kart for GameCube for $0.25
I like this video already just based on the title alone haha.
Im from Brazil , and i like very mutch you videos , my favorite console is the game boy color .
