Can you do some videos on how you make your tables? Also videos on where to find items tips/tricks for bargaining etc
Excited you’re back! Sorry about all the rough stuff from this year, but my wife and I loved watching your room tour videos throughout the years, they always brightened our day. I’m glad you’re feeling passionate about making videos again!
Thanks Fruitex - happy my videos shared some joy

Welcome back Lithium, great to see you posting again! You’re one of my favorite channels with an insane collection/game room. I remember when you subbed to my channel when I first started out. It still means so much to me. I’ve gone on a bit of a pause myself with so many life events going on, but once I get the passion to make videos again it will be great. Keep on with the positivity 😊
Thank you! Your room is amazing
Haha within the first minute I heard you talk I could tell your Canadian, I found your channel when I started playing video games again specifically the Nintendo switch after a 5+ year hiatus, it’s awesome to see the renewal of passion for your hobby and channel.
General Nintendo, welcome back!
I am so happy you are back cause you are the one who gave me the idea to begin with nintendo collecting.
And that is my biggest hobby now.
And i hope its gonna be okay with your leg and with your family.
I wish you very mutch succes.
NCY.
Hey Lithium! Glad that things seem to be better! I would love to see the return of general "gaming haul" videos. Those are always comfy.
SO glad to see your return. As for suggestions, I'd like to see pickups for the last 10 months!
Definitely need to do a lot of pick ups videos
i love you're collection man. i've been watching you since i was in middle school in 2012!! im graduating college soon and was obsessed with you as a kid because i also loved collecting nintendo games! i kept every game i've ever had and was always confused when the kids around me would trade their games in.
You're collection gave me the drive to want to collect all my favorite games and merch and try to even get a FRACTION of the absolute dream-like euphoria that your room captures.
You're collection has only gotten better and better over the years and the way you present it and organize it is no small feat! the amount of sheer effort and passion you've put into all this is jaw-dropping.
i just wanted to give you your flowers for being there to inspire and entertain me for so, soooo long.
you've told me a thousand times but now it's my turn...i hope YOU keep smiling while gaming! Thanks a million lithium!🕹️❤
Welcome back, looking so forward to your 2022 unboxings and the new game room tour but please take care and stay safe.
Oh my gosh it’s been so many years since I’ve seen one of this guys videos, maybe half a decade. TH-cam just hasn’t been recommending them and then I guess it looks like he went on hiatus.
Saw on his Instagram that he was gonna make a new video, but when I went to check, it was on my homepage, so that’s good, looks like the come-back has the support of the TH-cam algorithm!
So happy to see you're doing well, you were one of the main inspirations for me getting into collecting, and I still consult some of your videos to this day.
Really looked up to your game collection when I was but a wee lass, really happy that you're still hanging in there and growing the collection :3
Glad your back Lithium, ever since I started watching back in 2019, I've wanted to start collecting all the Nintendo consoles and controllers but never could because I was just a kid with no money. But now that I'm older and have a job, I was able to go to a local retro gaming shop and buy a SNES, N64, WII, Games and Controllers for them as well as a few Mario Series Wiimotes all for about $250
It’s really great that your back, and it’s appreciated how upfront you’ve been about everything! I can’t wait to see more from you, and I hope you’re able to continue smiling while gaming despite all the recent hardship!
So glad to see you back and doing well, and it's really respectable that your recognized you needed a break and took the time that you needed instead of struggling. Big props
So happy you are back man! It's always a blast to see your collection!
It sure is great to see you back in action buddy! Life can be tough sometimes. It is important to have the passion in everything you do so I can understand taking a break from time-to-time. Your gaming room is still my favorite to see and I appreciate any content you choose to post...especially Pokemon related content! :)
So glad you're back! I used to watch all your videos about your gamecube controllers and games collection when I got back into Smash bros Melee and obsessing over gamecube controllers 😁
Glad that you are back, man! This year has also been rough on me, but for different reasons. Most of it came from my grandfather having some bad health issues. He unfortunately passed away near the end of October, but I'm grateful for the time I spent with him. I may not be actively gaming or collecting for a little bit, but I'll still be around here as much as I can. Much love, man!
So sorry for your loss Thomas. Stay safe
Glad you're back! I had a similar experience with working from home out of my game room in 2020 to 2021 and it sucked the fun and love I had for it away. I moved my workspace to another room in the house and it was such a massive improvement in my mood and love for the game room and passion for collecting.
Bro this is so beautiful! Your collection is AMAIZING ❤
Thank you so much!!
so glad you're back and sorry to hear about your ACL i know how bad that injury can be. i've recently started properly collecting games but currently only focussing on Wii, Ds and 3Ds and only getting games that im interested in and playing currently. i also cannot wait to see the room tour in full but take all the time on that. welcome back again!!
So pleased to see your videos again! For a suggestion I'd love to see an in-depth look at your pokemon collection PLUS of course the FULL updated room tour around Christmas or New Year!
I personally am a great fan of the collection updates and unboxing videos. Hope your ACL heals soon!
Welcome back! Glad to see you
I've filled out a lot of my Pokemon collection this year. I have every main series game from Diamond and Pearl to Legends Arceus, except for one game being Heartgold. I also got my hands on the newest Pokemon themed Switch OLED and the double pack for Scarlet and Violet, so my collection is gonna look better than ever.
Wishing you and your family well!
It is really great to see you back, you are totally an inspiration for all of us! Keep doing what you love and we hope you get recovered completely soon.
I’m so glad you’re back! I recently started Mario collecting and realized that I hadn’t seen your stuff in a while and was very sad to see all you were going through on Insta. Looking forward to everything you have in store!
So glad your back! Always love watching your videos. Would enjoy seeing some pickup videos from what you’ve collected throughout the year, game room tour and unboxings! Hope you and your family are doing well!
I was just recently thinking of how I missed your videos. Glad to see you back! I really enjoy the monthly pickup videos. You collection is just amazing to look at, so organized and just pure Nintendo!
Glad to see you're back hope your leg recovers soon! I'd love to see a World of Nintendo plush showcase since I'm trying to collect some of them recently and I'm not sure how many were made. Keep up the great work!
You definitely have one of if not the best Nintendo collection on TH-cam, I've been jealous ever since I was a kid. It's gotta be worth millions upon millions especially after the retro gaming price spike!! People this passionate inspired me to do the same with my own interests although I only have my own room to cram a decent display for my collection in.
So happy to see you back!!! I’m sorry for the rough year but I’m glad to hear it’s improving and hasn’t completely put ya down. Take care of yourself and your family first! I absolutely love your videos and am so happy you are back!! The room looks great and I’m looking forward to new content. Keep smiling and stay positive! Thank you for the new video and update, please know your viewers will always be here for you! Much love! ❤🎉😊
Welcome back ❤ Glad to see you feel inspired again. I am looking forward to watching your videoes going forward. This is a very stressful year for me, as it is my last year in the university. But your videos always help me relax, so your return is at a perfect time for me!
As for video suggestions, an updated «Collecting Tips» series would be cool. Always enjoyed watching that one.
Take care, and keep smiling while gaming!
Triangle Strategy so far. Its pretty sick! Would love to see a video about what your top 10 gamecube games have been recently. Maybe a look at your virtual boy collection recently?
Newer person to your channel, but I'm glad you're back! Your older room tours is actually what recently inspired me to start collecting again.
I’m so glad to see you back! I am sorry about all the hardships that you have had to endure. I ripped my quad tendon in my left knee when I was a freshman in high school, so I know how ya feel. Your collection continues to inspire me everyday to make mine just a little better. Thanks for all the good times!
I'm so happy you're back! You're my favorite collection channel and I can't wait to see what you have in store going forward. The new area looks so nice! I wish you the best with all your troubles you've been having this past year.
Something I'd like to see are some updated buying guides for games on some of the Nintendo systems
I am so happy you're back and I am so excited for the 2022 room tour! I've been eagerly awaiting since the last one! :)
You're a legend. Seeing your collection gives me so much happiness. It's a feeling I don't get from any other collections I've seen. It's so perfect and complete that it truly satisfies my OCD and love of Nintendo! So sorry to hear about your leg. will pray for your surgery and for you guys during these tragic times in Ukraine.
Thank you Tim - appreciate the kind thoughts. OCD Nintendo is a good channel name ha!
Then allow me to set off that OCD: he said there's no Panasonic Q in his collection! 😈
@@Longma1 gotta have something to keep collecting for, thrill of the hunt.
Your space has inspired me the most out of all game rooms out there. I'm currently sitting here with COVID pretty bad and thought that I should check into your channel and see if you've uploaded (needing a pick me up). I'm psyched to see you're back and feeling better.
It’s crazy all the things that can happen in 10 months! Really happy you are finding your passion again and things are starting to look a little brighter for you. I’m so glad you are coming back, my wife and I love to watch your videos and see the gameroom! Your room and with the support of my wife inspired me to make my own gameroom years ago.
Whatever it is you post, we will be watching for sure. Keep up the great work and welcome back.
You got it made, man! Happy to hear it
What happened?
Been watching your vids since my early high school days, didn't expect you to show up on my recommendations, but its awesome to know you're still here!
I recently find your channel, and I have to say, you such a legend for collecting all of those stuffs. It feels like a museum of nintendo games and collectibles. I would be very pleased if you can let me take a tour around your house when I have a chance to travel to Canada. Such a beautiful basement! Also hope you doing great with your health, stay safe.
Welcome back.
Looking forward to the room tour.
I would be really interested in seeing cable management and how you store your controllers as I have these issues with my own games room.
Should have my own room tour up in the new years as well.
Glad you're back. 🙂
It is wonderful to have you back!! I'm happy you were able to take your time throughout all the hardship and are able to come back, once again, passionate over gaming!
As for content suggestions? Honestly, you already made awesome videos as was, and you should absolutely make whatever kind of videos you most enjoy, but if I was to give a suggestion, I think it would be quite cool to see you do some casual game reviews! With how much passion shows in every corner of the game room, I'd love to hear you talk more about some of the games you love and the experiences you've had with them!
Thank you for all the great videos and tips over the years! I hope to keep smiling while watching your videos, not just gaming!
Casual game reviews is a great idea
Welcome back! It’s good to hear you again 😊. Your 101 collecting tips series is still to this day very helpful, and the most complete guide in YT, however, so many things have changed with prices and platforms and the way we buy our games today. Additionally, you have acquired so much knowledge in all those years since you made the series. Any thoughts on remaking the 101 tips series? That would be amazing!
So glad you're back, man!! Sending all my best to you as you navigate a really challenging season. Hang tough, my friend! Not sure if you've covered this in a video yet, but an idea I had for you is: How do you handle cleaning/dusting/upkeep of your displays and collection? I imagine dust is a constant battle. Similarly, flood or fire prevention. What tips do you have for insuring your collection if its lost or stolen? Thanks and looking forward to the next one!
Great to see that you are passionate to make more videos again. In terms of videos I would love to see:
Tips on how to display a collection, showing off different series (I loved your Mario video), maybe some stories on how and when you obtained different items over the years. Basically any kind of discussion/showing off your collection videos would be super interesting I think!
I just started watching your back catalogue of videos a month or two ago and was sad to see that you weren’t making videos anymore and when I saw that you uploaded today I couldn’t help but smile!
Glad you’re back! Thanks to your earlier tip videos, my wife and I have been able to build up our collection. Now we’ve been taking inspiration from your videos as we redesign the basement.
I watched your channel a lot while I was in elementary/middle school! I put building my Nintendo collection on the back burner for a really long time but I've just rediscovered you channel and it's great to have you back! I'm 20 and in college now, but my love for Nintendo has never faded! I'm glad I found this channel again :)
Welcome back!
Welcome back Lithium. Since i have watched your videos I have went from collecting Switch Games to 3DS games, Switch games and Nintendo plush. Thanks for your tips I couldn't do it without you. Also wow your collection is huge now. I don't think my tiny collection could compare to yours.
Welcome back! Also 2:01 having your modem and router in the gaming room is a sign of a man with his priorities in check 😂. (Edit: Wishing your family overseas all the best, I can only imagine the tension at times. Also sending all the well wishes regarding your injury and inevitable surgery. Maybe you need some Switch Sports Soccer matches to get you through it and keep your sports neurons firing 😊
I love seeing this. Love the passion that u and others have for what ever they may be collecting. Its great seeing people's collections grow and how their ideas differ from mine. Keep it up mate.
Just subscribed. Never seen your TH-cam but looking at your AMAZING Nintendo cave 😍😭😭 and hearing how long you been on here I already know your passion is real deal. I'm interested to check out older videos but I'm honored to find this gem of a channel, looking forward to amazing content as well. Wish us fans had more local communities to game again together!
Glad to see you back! I’ve been collecting a lot of games for random consoles this year (Mainly Gameboy, Master System and Switch). I’d love to see some new updated collecting tips!
great to see you are back, found you just before the hiaitus and have started very lightly collecting games since then. cant wait to see what comes next
I am currently in between collecting Gamecube and some GBA games and console accessories. Those were some of my first consoles playing, alongside SNES and Playstation One.
I am interested in N64 consoles, games, and controllers. I vaguely remember it when it was popular, but love the nostalgic promo ads. I think all of the 1990s-early 2000s artwork ads for games, packaging, and cases are visually pleasing to me. So I'm slowly collecting those.
Welcome back glad to see you making content again. Best of luck in your recovery. You are one of the reasons I have continued working on my video game collection!
Very glad to see your channel pop up on my feed again! Sorry about the injury and of all that is going on back home for you and yours with current events but am glad y’all are ok. Recently wanted to get into making a modded gameboy (ordered the parts but am scared bc I have never soldered)… maybe a channel idea is having you buy a donor gameboy and see you mod your own creation? But no matter what video you make, I’ll watch for sure!
Looking forward to your room tour! I would also love to see your current fav items that you gained during the hiatus. Looking forward to whatever videos you decide to make!
Welcome back. You have the nicest games room on TH-cam. You mentioned that your after a pearl white GameCube...I don't have one to offer you sadly but being European, I would like to see some content from you that includes comparisons of games, consoles, collectibles etc between NA and EU variants, or some of your favourite EU items in your collection. For example I really like the sega Dreamcast PAL cases that we got here in the UK, as opposed to the NA cd cases.
hey lithium, do you think you can do a video rating the Mario and Luigi series? its good to see you're back
3:21 that sounds painful😖 i hope you have a quick full and healthy recovery
Glad to see you back man, been watching for forever and you were my inspiration to start collecting myself. I got a lot of my holy grails this year so I’ve slowed down on collecting recently for a bit. Gotta say my favorite game this year is xenoblade chronicles 3 hands down. Can’t wait for more man glad you’re back.
I’m so happy that you’re back! Your video game collection and cool n64 stuff has inspired me to get rare n64 items like the Nintendo power 100 controller and other things!
Great to see you back! It would be interesting to see a video of your pickups from while you’ve been gone.
YES!!! You’re back!! Was just watching your 2020 room tour yesterday!! Just waiting on Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
Glad to see that you're back. I was just thinking about your channel the other day and got worried about you.
Great to see your back you can hear the passion. I totally understand the workspace in the same room as your hobby room. It happen to me as well.
I’m glad your back I was subbed and I was sad that you weren’t posting at all because this channel was basically the first TH-cam channel I watched,glad your back bro
I’m glad you’re back! I’ve been taking a little break from gaming due to work/life. Would love to see some top 10s like favorite Mario kart or favorite Nintendo rpg something like that. I always like to watch your unboxings of controllers or games.
I’m really glad you’re back, I’ve always enjoy watching your videos. Hope you can get back soon to sports once you get the surgery. Best wishes and welcome back!
Glad to see you back!! In terms of suggestions, have you done vids on your pokemon collection? games, plushies, other knickknacks, etc. Also, i hope your ACL recovery goes well
Glad you're back! Breaks are necessary sometimes, frankly I'm learning to embrace them myself.
Also, the SNESK and that longboi Mario table with the gaming chairs around it are awesome!
I'm so glad you're back! I was just thinking yesterday that it had been a while since I'd gotten a notification about one of your videos. I'm really looking forward to the new room tour, and I'm glad to hear you're feeling passionate again. Turning a space that should be fun into a work space can create serious issues; I discovered this for myself a few years back.
I used to be a huge anime figure and manga collector, but my financial situation changed around the time you stopped making videos, so I haven't been able to collect in the meantime. I did start streaming (on a different account) though, which has led to me actually playing and appreciating more of the games I already own. I used to just buy games and maaaaaaayyybeee play them, but now I actually feel motivated to do so. Currently I'm playing Hollow Knight for the first time, I'm replaying DKC2, and occasionally playing Project Diva on the Switch.
If you're interested in streaming, I think it would be fun to watch you play some of your favorite games! I love the room tours and unboxing videos (especially so I can live vicariously through you while my collection is mostly in storage), but seeing you also play the games you love could be a new avenue for you to explore IF you think that would be fun for you. It's totally valid to want to keep the gameplay itself a private thing for you to enjoy. I balance that by reserving specific games for streaming and others for playing by myself when I just want to. This is how I finally ended up playing my second Zelda game (Link's Awakening on the Switch); I kept thinking "this would be great content," but honestly it felt good to have the flexibility to play that one when I wanted to without having to publicize it. You find balance.
I'm looking forward to working your videos back into my routine, whether it's more of the same (which is totally welcome for me!) or something new!
So glad you're back! Collecting tips and updates would be amazing, especially updated for today's market with the hobby exploding and prices going insane. Good luck with your surgery! My girlfriend had ACL + meniscus done about a year ago, it was a long recovery.
So excited to see another video from you LIthium! Man, the stuff you went through this past year sounds crazy... Hope things will get better!
This past summer I've been hooked on the Kingdom Hearts series. Great gameplay and the soundtrack is just incredible, I really wish I hopped on that train a lot sooner! I've also been keeping tabs on the release of Sonic Frontiers as a big fan of Sonic. Really hoping the game turns out great!
Welcome back. I’m really glad to see your awesome collection. I can’t wait to see more of unboxing videos, new games. Take care
It is awesome go see you back and better (aside from your leg). My thoughts and prayers to you and your family in these tough times. Been missing you and your collection reminds me of the old Nintendo games I collect over time (huge n64 fan, wearing a n64 shirt as I’m typing this lol). That made me think, I would love to see a video of some of the items that made you start collecting and what items are most important to you and your childhood (as stated, mine would be the classic n64 games, smash bros, Mario party 3, banjo Kazooie etc, still trying to get paper Mario). Thank you :)
So glad to see you back, I was just thinking about how I hadn't seen any videos from you in a while. The sports injury is rough, but at least you are walking again. Hopefully your potential surgery and everything else goes well. Looking forward to seeing more videos from you!
Love it, just looking at this room makes me happy. Sorry to hear about your injury and the work burnout though. Kinda going through the same thing myself right now. I have to work a ridiculous amount of hours to keep the train on the tracks so to speak and it's gonna be that way for the next 6+ months. Gonna get it done, but after that I might just disappear for a month or two to rest and reclaim my sanity.
I’ve always like stopping by to watch you every so often. I used to love Nintendo as a child. But as I enter middle school I started to hide my interest in video games from my parents and everyone around me. Probably trying to fit in. Now I’m 20, and my current fun of Nintendo is just watching videos!
But this year been weird. While the first half was fine. By fall when I was turning 20, I just felt like I was suddenly changing as a person and I was. So it been a lot of exploring who I am again now. It good to at least have someone familiar around right now.
Glad to see you back ! Would like to see unboxings and the room tour 🤘🏽
So glad you're back, also your gaming room looks phenomenal!
It's been rough out there these past few months. I can understand. I hope you and your wife are doing better or at least ok these days. It takes time.
I don't have any suggestions right now for videos but I'm glad your back. I enjoy watching your videos and hearing your upbeat tone of voice.
Welcome back! Sorry to hear about all the issues happening during and prior to the hiatus. I'm very much looking forward to upcoming videos, of course do it at your own pace, we've waited 10 months we can wait longer with ease.
This year, really enjoyed Xenoblade Chronicles 3, but outside of that really all I've played are older games (Had gone back to getting many of my favourite PlayStation games).
I love ultimate frisbee and play for my college! I’m glad to see you want to make videos again and sorry you have had a lot of hiatus going on and the effects of it. Also I hope your surgery goes well next year with your ACL. I have subscribed to your channel since 2014 or 2015 I believe and love your videos.
Glad to have you back!! It would be interesting to back top 5 or 10 games you are playing on a (certain) console in 2022.
Glad to see you're back! I've slowly been collecting over the past year, and a few days ago I got a Gameboy DMG model and a red New 3DS XL for my birthday!
How did I miss your return?! I've very recently become a big fan of this channel and I'm very happy to you back mate. Collecting has become a neat hobby thanks to channels like this. Got an old Nintendo DS Lite not too long ago. Big fan of Nintendo's handheld systems. Hope your day is going great dude, can't wait for the next room tour!
Glad your back! I really enjoy your pick up videos and your 12 days of Christmas videos
Welcome back! I would love to see a video on how you’ve adapted collection with the bubble that has formed around the hobby with everything retro being so expensive. Do you rely on trades more? If so what have you been doing to plan ahead for what would be the most trade-able?
This is a very special channel; glad you're doing okay (aside from your injury, oww!) and equally glad to see you back!
Adding an amibo case to the wall with a screen that they have in stores would be cool. I’m pretty sure they’re kind of expensive but it would look really cool. Also collecting the Pokémon winter wonders train would be cool somewhere for the videos around Christmas. Glad to have you back and I can’t wait for the tour!
So happy your back dude! Love your videos and your collection is absolutely breathtaking. Looking forward to future videos
I’m glad you are back! I’m sorry for everything that has happened to you in the past year, and I’m excited for your new videos! I just picked up some dk bongos for the GameCube as well.
Video suggestion: you could unbox DK bongos. I guess that’s really not a good suggestion though lol
So good that you're back and you have your passion back. At a glance the room looks fantastic! Welcome back!
