    Sword of Convallaria is available for FREE to download from 31st July. Use my link to download the game! tap.io/XNGzCVM
    We had so much fun trialling this game and the authentic battle tactics, enhanced 3D-like pixel art and profound story truly make it a modern classic.

      ​@@chrismeulen8108 and before Stadium Events the game was originally launched as "Running Stadium" in Japan for the Famicom. These games are basically no different from each other, so they are only cartridge shape/color/label variants with a different title screen. The original Famicom cart can be bought loose for 40 bucks (used to go a lot cheaper before), the late WCTM "variant" for $5, but the mid-label/title screen "holy grail" for tens of thousands. Why? Because it's ultra-rare and super-elusive? It's the same fucking game all along. Every "version" of it was designed to play with a family trainer/power pad/family fun fitness, no difference whatsoever. All "variants" aside this game is common as hell. Nobody shoud pay more that 5-10 bucks for any of them.

    Bro, don't broadcast your list to potential sellers! Don't tell them you want these games badly to complete a collection. They'll rip you off. That's not a good barter strategy, to say the least. These people don't want to make you happy, they want to make themselves happy.

      I saw him fake interest in buying a really rare console off of another collector at a convention so he could get footage of the rare consoleHe said he needed to get some more cash and would be right back. That poor guy sat there for hours waiting for him to come back after a while he sent a few of his friends out into the convention to find rick and he had already left for the day

      At what price point is it ok in your eyes? Coz if every game was still 30 bucks it would be like 1990 all over again and we would all be viewing them as disposable and toss them out or sell them at a garage sale for 3 bucks each like we all did back then

      @Repcitykickz 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @MidwestFarmToys I can't see how anyone could justify spending more than let's say $200 on a super rare video game, it's something that was probably produced for a dollar or less, I mean 50k could buy alot in this world, a deposit on a home, in some places it could buy a home, you could buy a second hand super car for 50k. Spending that or even debating spending that on a video game is ludicrous.

    Rick, it was the 90s before you even picked up a controller. You mostly likely didn’t start playing games until you were 7 years old, which would be 1994.
    I love your passion , everyone can share the love of them.
    But you will never have the nostalgia us kids who were born in the 70s , and grew up in the 80s
    You are excited about finding these games, but you will never experience nor miss the feeling of digging through a $5 bin of sealed clearance NES games at Kaybee toys in 1988 -1990 ( you were in diapers while we were experiencing this)
    Y’all can call me negative, but ricks prime gaming era was 1997-2002. That is PlayStation era

    Love your energy Rick! Always cheers me up to see you so excited about your collection. Also, I actually had a friend who owned stadium events as a kid. He had a special controller/accessory for it that was a foot pad you would move your feet on, up and down, as quick as you could, to "sprint" fast in the game. I used it myself when we played it once. It was pretty fun once or twice, but made you sweat lol. I'm not sure if it was something that came with the game or was some licensed or unlicensed unique controller. I beleive it came with the game. Apparently, even back then 25+ years ago, my friend was aware it was a valuable game. At least he mentioned it at some point in my childhood. Crazy that it's worth so much now
