your video suck now, not what it used to be, Just like all youtuber who reach a limit and now becoming Gameshow or Something along that line. Boring skip 9:08-9:37
Same lol, price charting has it at 42k. I think he should do what Riggs did for Gabo. Just get WCT circuit board and a reproduction label and you're good, call it quits on the addiction. Spending 1k+ on a game is really irresponsible and he has a family.
Super awesome meeting you there, Rick! Was an awesome experience. Also thanks for taking a picture with me, my wife had a field day calling me a nerd but so worth it.
This is why I don't want become a collector. It's like drug addiction. You just lose money even though it's worth something that you won't ever sell it back
It's not at all a game adapted from the film Best Of The Best, it's a kick boxing game. Best of the Best: Championship Karate is an updated version of Panza Kick Boxing from 1990.
@@dukerx They didn't have the license to make a game based on the movie but they could tweak a couple things and still use the name and get away with it which is exactly what they did.
SOOOOOOO CLOOOOOSSSSSEEE!!!!! (Congrats! It's been fun following the hunt on here.) Also, Michael's reaction @16:41 summarizes everyone's response to that price.
Seeing videos like this makes me wanna collect, but then I come to a realization that I have no NES games in my current collection and the amount of money I'd have to spend would be astronomical lol
It’s not an expensive console to collect for. There’s plenty of bangers at the $20 or less price point. Rick is going for a complete collection, and some of the games are super rare and costly.
I can’t believe you pulled up Kikle cubicle me, and my mom and dad used to play the hell out of that game. When I was a kid of the only games my dad would sit through and play the entire game.
Man the crazy part is growing up here in Massachusetts i remember playing stadium events with the running pad on my next door neighbors NES. I remember the woolworths stores too! Place was awesome lol
Do either of the games mentioned here use the track pad ? I remember my friend had it and it plugged into the NES and you ran on it. It looked like a twister mat.
My grandparents had Stadium Events, Mike Tyson’s Punch Out, Mario 3, and some Car Racing game for us grandkids to play in their basement in the late 90s. Good times.
When he said "55" I thought that was hundred, as in $5500, and thought that was a good deal cheaper than $16k. It's at $55 thousand?!?! That's crazy town.
This kills me; I used to have NES stadium events with the mat that went on the floor. That, marble madness, and bubble bobble were my jams. I'm pretty sure I ended up giving them all away.
At the expos, they should have an area where you can take items that you buy, pay a small fee (and shipping costs) and they arrange the shipping back for you. Be a good way to sell bigger stuff to a wider audience
@@midwestboss8808 if you are from out of town and wanting to buy something large, getting it to the post office would be quite difficult, so its not about being lazy. Its about creating a system to make it easier for buyers which increases sales for the sellers.
The vendors are literally waiting around all day anyway, it's their job. If he's considering buying something that means he's not sure so how is it ghosting? He did what many buyers do and went on his day normally.
@rawbmar1166 I've seen him ask a vendor to hold an item for him several times for a reason like, "it's too big to carry around all day" then the vendor holds it for him when other people want to buy it. Then he never shows back up. 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
I ran a video game store for 20 years. I’ve sold more Nintendo games than I can count. Never did we have a stadium events come through the store. Crazy to see a box version!
@@PeperonyChease it might have been if there was some sort of re-release. This was the very early 90's and I was young so I didn't or don't know how to spot a re-release.
I used to own EVERY Nintendo game but the Nintendo championship game. Bought them all from 99-2002 from a pawn shop in Wahiawa, HI. The island had EVERY game shipped to it and this pawn shop had bought them all from people over the years. Sold them all in 2008 for 800 once I discovered emulators
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.
these r collectors everything he bought was fair priced this isnt a cheasy flee market where there out to get over on you this is where people who have money go to show off what they have kinda like a car show compared to a car dealer
There would be camraderie that way. They all had set prices which only ever went down, and these are all like minded game nerds, so hush sucka, hush hush hush.
My brain tried all the possible interpretations for "fifty five" before reaching the final result. $55? $50.50? $5500? "Did I hear fifteen five? Maybe it was 1505?" . It's an insane price, even for a collector. That's more than lots of people make a year. I'm glad you decided to look for the unboxed version.
15 years ago you could’ve bought every game on nes for under 20k including a copy of Nintendo world championships. Blame Goldin and all the other shameful collectible up sellers.

I loved Best of the Best. When our local drugstore was getting out of video game rentals, they put all the games up for sale. My mom was so cool that day, she bought almost all of them because they were only between $5 and $15 that game was one of them
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
@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
Yea, he definitely didn't start out on Pong and witnessed the joy of picking up Phantasy Star for 10 bucks in a Kay-Bee Toy Store. No hate on the guy but if you weren't there, you just weren't there and you can't fake it. I do dig the passion though.
as long as you were born before 90, you witnessed the miracle. I was born in 86. I played regualar Nintendo, then Sega, SNES, N64, Xbox, Playstation, PS2 Xbox 360... .... before that evolution, the games were junk anyway. Nintendo was what jump started it all
@@MrFerricktime gatekeeps childhood. He wasn't born when these things hit the market so it's impossible for him to know what that was like. Same way I have no idea what the Atari was like. I Have zero childhood memories I can attach to those
I can’t believe you pulled up Kiko cubicle me, and my mom and dad used to play the hell out of that game. When I was a kid of the only games my dad would sit through and play the entire thing of as far as we got I can’t remember.
At first I wanted to comment and say the previous video I watched a guy repair an actual Earthbound. to see it in ur vid was cool, then u hit me with $55 'whats ur wiggle room?' Oh, u meant $55K?!?!? that made me choke on my drink great video. awesome commentary, retro gaming looks to have a really cool vibe community. hope to see u knock out ur entire list, someday
Wt hell man? I've been seeing Gleaming the Cube everywhere the last couple of days! And there's no way the algorithm would have known that this random video I found on nes games would have this in there! No way!
Yes it does. When I make videos TH-cam automatically makes captions and transcripts for it without me asking or telling it to. It knows almost every intelligible word that is said in every video
I like that you are doing this hunt in real life, it’s way better than just buying stuff on eBay. It also shows you how uncommon some of these games are. I have had best of the best karate on Game boy multiple times but I never see that cart. Meanwhile, I see a little Sampson and bonk a few times a year
My neighbor had the Stadium Events game when we were kids! Kinda funny story, he never liked the game that much because he wasn't an athlete and didn't really like sports very much. I would have to beg him to play it with me! He figured out the quick feet shuffle trick way before I did and kick my tail in the 100 yard dash and it would drive me nuts because there's no way on earth he was faster than me in real life! LOL!.....really makes me wonder now if he still has this game somewhere!!
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
Awesome video 👍👍 and Rick love the Game Genie jacket and the Double Dragon shirt that one guy was wearing 👍 hopefully you get your list finished one day 🙂
My uncle has alot of old NES games. For all I know he has half of those on the list. Stored in a huge tv cabinet. His favorite was a baseball game where you could buy players.
I would just like to point out that I was collecting these games as well and for the most part the nentendo's won't even play them anymore, they do not have a very good shelf life. Good Luck getting the games to run!
I had no idea Stadium Events was such a rare game! My neighbor growing up had it, along with the floor pad controller so you could run, jump, etc. for all the events.

@@gravelpit5680 89 baby here. Got my snes when I was 6 the rest is history 🍻💜✨
This is one of the stupidest things I've ever read. I didn't realize you could gatekeep childhood.
@@MrFerricktime gatekeeps childhood. He wasn't born when these things hit the market so it's impossible for him to know what that was like. Same way I have no idea what the Atari was like. I Have zero childhood memories I can attach to those
Man ... I used to have Stadium Events with the Power Pad. Never knew my childhood would be worth so much lol.
'Karate with boxing gloves' is also known as "Kickboxing." Lol. I had that game on the Amiga - it was called Panza Kick Boxing.
I can’t believe you pulled up Kiko cubicle me, and my mom and dad used to play the hell out of that game. When I was a kid of the only games my dad would sit through and play the entire thing of as far as we got I can’t remember.
At first I wanted to comment and say the previous video I watched a guy repair an actual Earthbound. to see it in ur vid was cool, then u hit me with $55 'whats ur wiggle room?' Oh, u meant $55K?!?!? that made me choke on my drink
great video. awesome commentary, retro gaming looks to have a really cool vibe community. hope to see u knock out ur entire list, someday
He has 5 left now, meanwhile, I'm just starting.. This was fun to watch! I hope you find the last few that you need!
Wt hell man? I've been seeing Gleaming the Cube everywhere the last couple of days! And there's no way the algorithm would have known that this random video I found on nes games would have this in there! No way!
Yes it does. When I make videos TH-cam automatically makes captions and transcripts for it without me asking or telling it to.
It knows almost every intelligible word that is said in every video
Holy crap, when did Riggs get that old?
Holy crap when did I get that old?
Love seeing Mr. Riggs in videos!
Your channel has become really popular, great job.
"It's at $4,392 right now" Oh I didn't realize we'd get a visit from mister deep pockets today.
I like that you are doing this hunt in real life, it’s way better than just buying stuff on eBay. It also shows you how uncommon some of these games are. I have had best of the best karate on Game boy multiple times but I never see that cart. Meanwhile, I see a little Sampson and bonk a few times a year
Little Samson* there is no letter p in that name.
You've gotta be kidding me I remember playing Stadium Events at a new years eve party when I was a kid.
cant wait to see the video where you get your collection complete :) good luck :)
My neighbor had the Stadium Events game when we were kids! Kinda funny story, he never liked the game that much because he wasn't an athlete and didn't really like sports very much. I would have to beg him to play it with me! He figured out the quick feet shuffle trick way before I did and kick my tail in the 100 yard dash and it would drive me nuts because there's no way on earth he was faster than me in real life! LOL!.....really makes me wonder now if he still has this game somewhere!!
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
2:26: we see Phoenix Resale
2:31 Phoenix Resale ages about 25 years
Rick, how long were you at the convention?
I always loved playing Solomon's Key and Wizards and Warriors on my NES
There’s 4 games from my childhood that I’d love, 7up, Mickeys Safari in letterLand, BigNose Freaks Out, Snake Rattle n Roll
I actually loved Best of the Best on Genesis. You can pick your characters moves and once you learn the timing it's actually pretty fun.
Glad to see your joy on display you have a huge passion for this, and it shows keep it up good sir
I remember playing stadium Events and getting blisters on my finger from running my finger over the A and B buttons really fast
Awesome video 👍👍 and Rick love the Game Genie jacket and the Double Dragon shirt that one guy was wearing 👍 hopefully you get your list finished one day 🙂
🤩 Awesome video! As another collectibles video creator I found it very inspiring!! taking notes 🙌✍️
My uncle has alot of old NES games. For all I know he has half of those on the list. Stored in a huge tv cabinet. His favorite was a baseball game where you could buy players.
I would just like to point out that I was collecting these games as well and for the most part the nentendo's won't even play them anymore, they do not have a very good shelf life. Good Luck getting the games to run!
Awesome collection dude... and that Game Genie jacket is FIRE!
"will we get it today? maybe." best editing right there.
Great vid! So awesome to finally meet you in person!!
Seeing John Riggs was worth the trip alone!
Kid Clown graphics look really nice. Great palette for an NES game.
The Fanny pack on the shoulder instead of chest 😂 That’s awesome
We can’t be the only ones excited for the gaming historian cameo? Right?
I had no idea Stadium Events was such a rare game! My neighbor growing up had it, along with the floor pad controller so you could run, jump, etc. for all the events.
Power Pad :)
Never watched your channel before. At about the 3rd “I don’t care”, I subscribed.
