    I’m a 2000’s kid but I always found retro games more fascinating and I grew up playing my dad’s SNES. Ever since, I grew my own retro video game collection.

    I was born in ‘87. My uncle got me started on NES playing Duck Hunt. Then my dad got me a N64. Been hooked ever since. Crazy to think of 90’s games as “Retro”. Feels like yesterday.

    I'm a big fan of honesty. "Hey old lady at the mom and pop thrift shop, there were two discs in this box. Does that count as one game or two?"
    "Why thank you for your honesty young whipper-snapper, you just keep that extra disc on the house!"
    You'd be surprised how much people appreciate honesty and even when it doesn't go in your favor, you can know that you did the right thing. I've built up my game collection in this exact way as well (my largest collections are 360, about 360, and PS2, about 430) as well as probably a thousandish other games and a few dozen consoles and please be encouraged that it's entirely doable being honest with people.

    Just discovered your channel and this series through your recent game room tear down/rebuilding videos and really digging your content dude! This $10 challenge especially has been sort of scratching my itch to go game hunting while being stuck at home. My favorite thing about retro gaming has been becoming the sort of historical aspect of it all. Seeing how the NES evolved to the SNES, N64, or the Genesis to the Saturn and Dreamcast, etc. and how the games progressed as well. It's of course a lot of nostalgia too, but lately I've been gaining a greater appreciation for the history of it all as well!

    I love retro video games because they remind of a simpler time when me and my siblings would play our SNES all day long during the summer in our garage. Our favorite was the Donkey Kong Country games and this one Mickey game that i forgot the name of. Our mom got rid of it years later since we didn't play it as much but as an adult I miss playing those games. Your channel brings me back to those times and love watching your videos because of that.

    Retro games take me back to a time where life was fun and it was filled with adventure. You could find happiness and excitement in the smallest things. When you didn't have to pay bills or worry about a 9 to 5. When you play retro games as an adult, it feels innocent. It feels as though you can just have pure enjoyment without feeling the fluster of adulthood.

    Great videos man I love retro games because they're kind of a piece of history in your life whenever I go back and play a retro game I dont only remember how good the game is but all the things that were going on in your life around that time its great 😁

    Nice pick ups! Dude, one of my pet peeves is the folks that take their sweet time in front of the DVDs at thrift stores. It's like "move it, that copy of when Harry met Sally isn't gonna change your life".
    I mostly play retro cause that's what I grew up playing. I grew up poor, so what we had access to was always old. I was rocking out at four and five playing Atari. That was in the early mid nineties. Then, I got a game boy and Sega in the late nineties. So, I've always have played retro.

    Just started watching this from the start have seen alot of the others. But what has been great is my 11 year old daughter has been watching with me and has enjoyed it and has made her want to learn more about the toys and games that she sees you pick up. Thank you for the amazing content and please keep it up!

    Retro gaming just brings so much nostalgia - the excitement of a new game as a kid, playing with friends, and the challenge of them. There was no internet walkthroughs or TH-cam. You had to put time into them, find a tips & tricks book, talk to staff at the rental place. Ah those were the days!

  • @nman625
    @nman625 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love retro games because they're just fun to play! I also can really appreciate how good some of these games are when I think about the limitations the developers had to deal with. Things have come a long way, but developers have always been able to use the tools available to them to deliver the best, most memorable experiences each console generation.

    Why I like retro gaming so much is cause basically I grew up around it. It brings back so many good memories just picking up a game and just reliving the memories and thinking about the days where me and my cousin's would just sit around and play video games just about all night and all day. Also think back when my parents didn't have much money but my dad would try to go rent a game I've been wanting to play like he did when I was younger and he surprised me with mario kart 64. Also something else I love about retro games is just finding games that I didn't get to play growing up or discovering an amazing game that I didn't even know about. Retro gaming just brings back so many good memories. It was like an escape and you didn't have to worry about anything.

    • @retrorick
      @retrorick  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes man im the same way. We didn't have the money to buy games most of the time so we always rented for the weekend

    Just subbed! You are my TH-cam find of the year. This concept is just like the NesPunk's videos but with game rules added to it. I love it.
    Also the reason i prefer retros to current games is because today's game leave nothing for the imagination. Every character have precise looks, voices, actions right in front of us. I prefer a text and a one grid move movement to signifies a storytelling so that i make out whats in front of me with my own imagination.

    I'm in love with retro games because they take me back to a simple time. Going over to my aunt and uncles house, popping in super mario bros. 3 from the all stars collection. Meanwhile my cousins off in another room playing on the newly released PlayStation. The parents are in the living room watching rented movies or playing n64.... the best memories.

  • @Malarz-Amator
    @Malarz-Amator 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Retro games are all about nostalgia for me and those moments from past when i played them. Whene I see one in the wild (store, flea market etc.) it stars the memories from past its so cool. Plus be able to replay them with my cousin like we did as child is an extra cherry on top😉
