    Fun story: I had this kid that I knew in elementary school and we were pretty great friends but then he moved away. Life moved on and I basically forgot he existed. Fast forward almost 20 years later and I’m perusing my local retro game store where I buy a copy of Breath of Fire 2 on SNES as it was one of the few SNES RPGs I still needed at the time. As I’m checking the condition of the cart, I see on the back of it there’s a name scribbled on in magic marker. It was that friend I had oh so many years ago!
    I actually ran into him out in public about a month later and he said he had just moved back to the area. I told him I got his old copy of Breath of Fire 2 and we started chatting again. Funny how video games can bring people back together sometimes.

    Hi Scott so fun fact I was a lead retail designer for Microsofts company store program for about seven years, so I can actually shed some light on those ridiculously large stickers. As you might imagine they do serve a purpose, every MSFT employee has a number associated with their employee ID that was tied to an internal tracking system that tracked how much hardware/software they were allowed to buy each year at the discounted price, the system was old and a pain in the ass to use. Moving on, so they were supposed to write their number on each piece of software they bought as basically a confirmation that they are agreeing not to do naughty things like go a sell the copy of office they just bought for $20 for the full retail price on ebay, same went for games and Gamestop corporate knows about these stickers and they are supposed to report any games they get with them (hint they don't all the time) But yeah they are big and obnoxious basically to just be obvious and serve to act as a pact with satan whenever an employee buys something at discount, also bonus fact the newer versions of these are designed to flake if you try and remove them so only tiny bits come off like a reverse lotto scratch ticket. Anyways hope you all enjoyed my little trip down memory lane.

The back is so scratched that there's a cutscene that it always crashes during that can be avoided by skipping it, and the floor disappears for a portion of one level, and if you die there the game crashes, but then you reload your save and its back to normal. 10/10 would buy again

    Hi, ex gamestop employee here to offer context!
    A lot of the times we just ran out of cases. Sure, GameStop may send us generic cases by the bulk, but other times when we get trades that are just discs or cartridges or what have you that exceeds the amount of cases we had we had to make due. That baseball sticker? Yeah that case came from a salvaged case whose game was unsalvageable and hey! A case! As for cleanliness, the stores I worked at were particularly busy. It becomes unfeasible when GameStop only has one or two people and the store at a time to vigorously clean everything. for me what it generally boiled down to was yo this is gross I'm not buying it from you.
    As for the cheap plastic cases (that smell like burnt rubber as soon as you open the box)? Money. GameStop is cheap and will go to *any lengths to save a penny.*
    Hope that helped!

    Soon-to-be former GameStop employee here! In terms of the generic cases having a custom size, it's likely due to the fact that we sometimes use actual PS4/Xbox One cases that become extras once the game has been sold. (Still not exactly sure how that happens, though.) In any case, the cover art that's printed can fit in those cases, as well as the black generic ones that we get sent in.
    As for not cleaning games, we really aren't trained in doing it, nor do we have proper equipment for disc cleaning and/or resurfacing. I've seen retro game stores that have this equipment, though, which really makes me want to support them more than a place like GameStop. Resurfacing machines are apparently pretty pricey, but they definitely make it worth it, seeing as customers get the reassurance that their disc will be in the best condition it can possibly be in. I mean, they resurfaced my copy of Yu-Gi-Oh! on the PS1 _three times_ before letting me have it!
    (Also, the single game I was willing to purchase in a generic case was, of course, Chibi-Robo Zip Lash. I'm still waiting for my local Walmart to lower the price on the in-box version with the Amiibo, namely since the box has been tattered to no end since it's been there since launch. It's still _forty dollars_ and supposedly on clearance.

    Personally, I love getting used games with names on them. Like the rental branding, it's just a little part of that specific game's history that makes it just a little more special. Sometimes it's just a standard name, sometimes it's my used copy of DKC that has "BEANS" written in big bold letters on the back. I like to imagine it was signed by one of the game's composers (Robin Beanland), as highly unlikely a scenario as that may be lol.

      Or maybe you’re right and he bought a ton of crap from the dollar store idk, its just that scott is so devoted to his channel with no profit in return the sheer extent of his work must be realised!!

    Two things put me off of Gamestop forever:
    -Bought a "new" copy of Skyrim back in 2012. Dude gave me a case that wasn't shrinkwrapped, it had been opened. He assured me it was fine. That disc never made it past the title screen. It even looked worn down a bit, but I was younger and didn't know any better.
    -Bought a used game because it had the case. The dude took the disc out of the case, popped it into one of those shitty CD envelopes, and gave it to me. We kind of got into an argument about the case. He said the store needed it, so I asked for at least the game art slip, but he refused, so I immediately returned the game to him. We annoyed the shit out of each other, I'm sure.

      So for those “new” games that aren’t sealed to avoid someone stealing a whole game they open one, set the disc aside and use the case for a display and it is supposed to be the last new copy sold, however speaking as someone who had friends who worked for Gamestop those loose disc “new” games would frequently go home with employees if they had plenty of new copies in stock, they’d play it for a day or two then bring it back and charge someone $60 for a game that had been played before.

      Exactly, it's like second hand sellers go out of their damn way to make sure YOU the customer you bought that copy of the Star Wars Holiday from Big Al's movie and game emporium. I've adopted many techniques for removing various vile stickers and inks from boxes and carts. For carts, Neverdull gets rid of most ink and markers. For my Laserdisc and VHS sleeves, just plain patience and very slow removal. And if all has failed, ebay has good deals on boxes and many art repros.

    For those curious, here is Scott's Few Reasons™:
    • What is saving that five dollars going to do for you?
    • More importantly what is it going to do for me?
    • You could literally just wait four more days and the new game will get a price cut.
    • Or just rent the game.
    • Or you could just borrow it from somebody.
    • Like who can spend fifty-five dollars but not sixty?
    • I get everybody has their own problems but it's five dollars.
    • If it's really an issue you could definitely find a used copy only for six dollars off.
    • Five dollars, really?
    • Really?
    • It's five dollars.
    • At least if it was fifty-eight dollars that would be such a huge rip I think I'd respect it more.
    • Five dollars off feels like they're trying to make it look like they're giving you a deal.
    • But are they really?
    • You ever have those days where you have nothing else going on and you have to find something to be upset about?
    • It's one of those days.
    • You know what?
    • I've had it.
    • Enough of these five dollars discounts.
    • We either deserve a hell of a lot more or a hell of a lot less.
    • Something needs to change.
    • If games were fifty-six dollars used, things would be different.
    • I'd only have four spare dollars at that rate.
    • Which means less disposable income.
    • And I HATE disposable income.
    • Absolutely despise it.
    • The quicker I get less deals, the more I can evaluate my self worth.
    • You ever have those days where you have nothing else going on and you evaluate your self worth?
    • It's one of those days.
    • I love days like these.

      Wait, $70 games. I wonder how Gamestop going to put the price on used game on it. I think it's $64.99. Hey, by then I got $5.01. Yay, more unhealthy fast food to get.

    I quite like when my games have stories, on them, like when they have rental brands and stuff like that. It makes my copy unique. I have a couple of cartridges from families who had kids and they have drawings on them, it’s the same for books, a lot of them have old drawings and names in and it’s a lot of fun.

      @Liggliluff 3 ปีที่แล้ว +53

      He only has had two thicknesses of the outline. The thick outline was introduced in his first gaming video from 7 Jan 2017 (Nintendo Switch Wish List). Then he introduced the thin outline during the video of 17 Dec 2017 (A Very Madden 08 Christmas). The thin outline appears after the theme plays. So the thick outline lasted about one year, and the thin outline has been with us for 2½ years so far. - His outlined videos has always been 1080p, so it has nothing to do with resolution at least.
