Rick I don't know if youll see this, but you've made that store better than I ever thought it could be. As someone whose been shopping there since I was 12 years old, what you've done with it in the past year is the absolute best it's ever been. Your dedication to the store and keeping interesting things in there is very much appreciated. -Hunter T.
Coming from someone who had every console from the Nintendo-ps3 until I got married and had kids…your channels have slowly become my favorites to watch and hits me in the feelz every time! 36 year old and OG power rangers fan for life!!
been amazing to see your growth from the start on the og channel and inside look into just the store here, and all the collabs with other youtubers, keep kicking ass! :)
@@retroricksgamepoint Watching gamechasers since season 1 and pat the nes punk, scootsquatch etc since the beginning of all that - watch you, phoenix, and pixel game squad grow have been nice, cuz it seemed for awhile there was a vacuum, Now we just have the new wave :)
Amazing Rick, like living the dream seriously. Glad we get to be a part of it on TH-cam. Can almost imagine myself in your shoes what fun that'd be. Wow! Congrats again on such a cool opportunity with such a killer store!
Congratulations on coming full circle! You’ve put in the time to get out there, be known, and hustle. I’ve always heard good stories of fans meeting Walter and was pumped af for ya!
Rick, i've been watching both of your channels for a while now, i really appreciate your contribution and impact in the retro gaming community. The Retro scene here in the philippines is not as big as what you have there, I'm hoping to visit your store someday.
Man, the MMPR Actors all seem like they're such nice people. I'm sure after 30yrs they get bored of hearing the same jokes, the same trivia, the same merchandise, and to me at least, it'd be really hard to keep up the positive attitude... not that I would be nasty or anything, but I wouldn't be able to act so genuine after so many years of the same song and dance, and they all really do put on a happy face for the fans because they know we really love them. I'd love to meet them all someday, RIP JDF... he was the shining beacon of the Power Ranger Fandom, but to all the remaining Rangers blessing us with their time and efforts to meet and greet fans, you guys rock, thank you so much for the wonderful childhood memories and your continued kindness toward the fandom! :)
I loved this seeing how happy he is seeing and meeting all his fans and he’s a character 😂 loved the energy maybe we can get a vlog on that dinner with the ranger
Ope, we made the mention in the video 😆 honestly the most Pittsburgh thing ever, being in the middle of AR and meeting someone that lives 20 minutes from you. Thanks again for the great visit, Rick! We look forward to coming to visit again!
Rick, just wanted to thank you for your videos. Because of them my daughters and I go hunting every weekend and each has started their own retro collections. Hope to make it to your store one day.
I was up from Florida and made a special trip to check out the store. Totally worth it. The Wizard display is cool, and I was lucky that Rick was there the day I went. Stop by if you’re ever in the Little Rock area!
Oh! This was good. Kid from the 90s right here too. Ungh, the Green Ranger (my fav) what he did, put a really sour note. From what I was brought up, ungh…he’s written off from me. But! What a great guy you had there!! I’m happy for you guys.
The last Ranger I've met in person was JDF. He signed my 1994 Green Ranger water bottle after he made a Tik Tok of himself drinking out of it. He was such an amazing, friendly human being, R.I.P.
I have been watching way before you had the store, I’m from northwest Arkansas and I just want to say that is a really nice store. Rick has done so good takin a game store and turning into a special store
I met all four original male power rangers and honestly Walter was the most down to earth. I expected to mainly talk power rangers, but we ended up just talking about ordinary things in life.
Tom Arnold did our local convention a couple of years ago. I went over to take his picture to give to the event staff and ask him how he enjoyed things here and his response was to say the least not so nice. He basically complained about why they brought him here in the first place, said that they were better and more important people than him to come here. He was very ungrateful. Maybe he was having a bad week or something but she shouldn't have taken it out on the gas at the convention.
I live in Ireland and I would have loved to meet the Black Ranger, The OG....... All the rangers came here back in the 90's to turn on the Xmas tree in Belfast and i missed it.
This is how you boost your stores brand every few months get some guests in them when it’s time for your own convention you already have a handbook with names and numbers to get the ball rolling
I was so disappointed when I went to comic-con in Niagara falls a few years back and had the pleasure to meet Worf (Michael Dorn) and Data (Brent Spiner) from Star Trek TNG... they were both ignorant, rude and clearly did not want to be there. I was so incredibly disappointed. Great example for the saying "never meet your childhood heroes". Glad to hear Walter is a genuine person.
Ya know, also, Walter has a helluva good point. All us 90s kids had mountains of pogs and slammers......but how did we even get them!? I dont remember ever openeing packs either! haha
Hey Rick! Love the office, but I think you’re missing something - I think you should paint the black pipe in your office green and make it look like a Mario warp pipe!!
Absolutely love this video so so much! I love love love my original mighty morphin power rangers and sad I couldn’t be there HOWEVER beyond words seeing the kindness everywhere in this video and the love put into a signing from Retro Rick with the glove and Walter just being so nice 😊 I’m just so happy, genuinely happy you got this on a video for us fans to enjoy ❤️ Wanted to say thank you for the content and this is one of the coolest things I’ve seen 🥹
Walter is amazing I've met him like 3 times or so now. I got a copy of the somewhat recent mmpr #1 blank cover variant signed by all the mmpr rangers aside from adam. I just met and got rockeys autograph Saturday. (I can't get trini for obvious reasons and yes I got tommy before his passing 😢)
RETRO RICK!!! Love your videos, man, BLACK RANGER!! LET'S GO! Also enjoy your dinner with Walter lol, can't wait to see more of your amazing stories and videos, Take Care!🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮
For the McDonalds corner you should get one of those Gamcube display cases they had in McDonalds for the kids to play with lol. It was like 4 Gamecubes in a circle with 4 controllers. I remember cutting school to go play it 😂😂
Walter hasn't aged a bit. Happy to hear he's a super nice guy as well. He was always my favorite power ranger when I was a kid.
It blows my mind Rick is able to get such high quality employees. They all look really put together and presentable.
he acts like a friend and not has an owner, geez , wish all work places were like this :D

rick is living the dream for all of us 80s / 90s kids. you earned it bro. hard work pays off.
man it's always so rad knowing that even after all these years the actors are still so hyped for the people & show great kindness
That's awesome. Congrats on him coming to your store! The store looks amazing as always.
Thanks for tuning in Donny!

The excitement on your face, definitely contagious. I smiled just seeing you that happy to have such an icon in your store. God bless.
Ha! I'm the dude from Pittsburgh! Lol Great to hear that you brought that up on video

That's awesome! Met Jason David Frank and Austin St John a few years back. Both were really nice. RIP JDF, you're definitely missed!
🙏🏻🤍🤍🤍🤍 Forever missed

I loved how excited you were for him to be at your store. Fun memory made right there that I'm sure you will be happy you got on video!
I know it’s probably unintentional but the editing mistakes are hilarious
We like to keep it real yo!
My guess is Riff didn't edit this one.

Such an awesome video! It's so cool to see how the content and the store continue to evolve. You guys deserve every bit of the success!
That's a man who had his time. Loves what he did and is so thankful people appreciated it and still do. Respect
keep the good stuff coming! your number 1 in the youtube retro community.

Retro Rick brings me back to my childhood. The store is amazing!
They say never meet your heroes, but once in a while you do and they're awesome! Super Rad times man! Love this!

Walter has Ed from Good Burger vibes going on right there, I love it.

Man I don’t care if this is “behind” I LOVE seeing the Behind the scenes of your store! It’s morphin time! 😊🥰

My dad used to run to killer cuts on the treadmill while we played the game! It was so dope! The memories are fond with that one 😊
Man you are living the dream. Congratulations on everything!

Was never into Power Rangers but came across him at a con once and he was cool AF. Nothing but love for him.
This is how you boost your stores brand every few months get some guests in them when it’s time for your own convention you already have a handbook with names and numbers to get the ball rolling
Living the dream Rick! Congrats!
I live in Pittsburgh as well. My wife already knows if we’re ever in Arkansas we will be stopping at your shop!
Your store is beautiful. Great job on this dream project. I wish I lived close! 😢
Love things y’all have been doing!!! I’m gonna make it down there one day!
I was so disappointed when I went to comic-con in Niagara falls a few years back and had the pleasure to meet Worf (Michael Dorn) and Data (Brent Spiner) from Star Trek TNG... they were both ignorant, rude and clearly did not want to be there.

Good job man! Your store looks dope!
That double Pittsburgh isn't just a coincidence! Keep living your best lives!
Joe is now the official security for the store with those sweet martial arts skills!
🤘😁👍
Grew up aggressive skating. It was my doorway to film and production. Brink! is every bladers warm blanket. For me its a VHS/DVD grail.
You are literally living your childhood dreams out now!!!
Stopped in on Monday, surprised at the differences. Keep catching up new stuff looks good
I played that KI CD in regular rotation back then. I loved that She's Killer song, She's Killer! Oohhh yeah yeah yhhbhhbuhbuhbuhhbhyhayyheah! ❤🕺
He seemed so awesome! Im jealous.
That Blockbuster sign is awesome!!
Hey.... I'm from the Pittsburgh area and the retro game scene here talks about Retro Rick, PGS, and that dirty reseller Pheonix Resale. lol
Ya know, also, Walter has a helluva good point. All us 90s kids had mountains of pogs and slammers......but how did we even get them!? I dont remember ever openeing packs either! haha
That's really awesome you were able to book Walter Emmanuel Jones for the store. :D
Hey Rick! Love the office, but I think you’re missing something - I think you should paint the black pipe in your office green and make it look like a Mario warp pipe!!
From which games is the music from the 4:50 mark?
Awesome show you guys
If Rick still has the McDonald’s GameCube kiosk that would be fitting with Ronald and McKids sign!
"Skate better"
It’s always a good day when Rick drops a video 😁
Absolutely love this video so so much!
I love love love my original mighty morphin power rangers and sad I couldn’t be there HOWEVER beyond words seeing the kindness everywhere in this video and the love put into a signing from Retro Rick with the glove and Walter just being so nice 😊 I’m just so happy, genuinely happy you got this on a video for us fans to enjoy ❤️

Nice video Rick, but this is awfully late. How do people know about the upcoming events at the store?
Had no idea Walter was missing a finger.
The Mcdonalds area needs a dollar menu game section

Mario 64 water music in the background is key!!!
Always enjoy the videos but have you considered getting a new camera? The videos are always pretty fuzzy even at 1080p.
