Put the back on the shelf and then slide the whole thing down to the left more so it hangs over the corner of the wall but lines up with the shelf around the corner. That way you have access to the light switches
Man, I was at Salvation Army a couple weeks ago. They had Mario Kart Double Dash, that 4-in 1 Zelda collection, and Super Monkeyball 2 for Gamecube, all unmarked. The location in my town is really hit or miss. Sometimes ridiculously priced, sometimes not. The lady charged me $5 a piece. Flipped Double Dash and got some stellar PS2 titles at my retro game store with the profit. Super grateful for your channel. I’m sure I’ve said that before, but I always get good tips and have built most of my game collection through this whole process.
Next time you need shelves go to Ikea and get the "Laiva" shelves. They are like $25 and hold just about as much as that $100 shelf you bought at BestBuy.
Game eye is what I use for my collection. I can list things as "trade' meaning they don't show up in the main collection too, which is what I do for my ebay listed ones.
Ngl the wii u is going to be the next gamecube expect worse/better then the games are gonna get crazy prices on the next years or maybe I'm just too much but who knows but if theres one thing is better to get em before it's a gen 2 gamecube.
@@hectorsanchez2875 yeah that is true, I’m pretty sure Paper Mario TTYD used to be 60 or 80 but it’s now worth 120 or more. The same thing may happen with the Wii U but almost most 1st party games on the Wii U were ported but you never know
That’s a really awesome looking shelf, I may have to get one, I currently have my collection spread out over several shelves and it would be nice to get it all in one place. Great episode, keep’em coming
Rick, the shelf makes the game room look great. I enjoyed the time lap footage as well. Keep it up. I like how you arranged the shelf and left some games turned so the cover art shows. I hope that lady responds about the mega game haul!!!
I had that shelve Rick. They are very rickity. Mine broke after a couple months. The back is it's support for as little as it does. But it's low profile is helpful. Also I agree with you, that TMNT VHS cover is seriously the best I've seen! Cheers my friend!
After binge watching this series for many days now, the bug to go out myself finally got to me. I just went out game hunting for the first time. I didn't find anything and I didn't like the experience. Spent a lot of money on gas and learned that most of the Goodwills near me price too high and don't seem to have any video game stuff anyway. It took several hours of my weekend. I'm too introverted for craigslist and FB marketplace meet ups. And competing against everyone else trying to do this just isn't my style. It was a valuable experience. Now I know I like watching other people's highlight reel on TH-cam but I don't want to do it myself. And I had to teach my brain that it's not as easy as strolling into a store and picking up $50 worth of value. So it was worth it because now the desire to go out there myself is gone and I can just relax and watch this series for entertainment instead of feeling like it is a "how to" video that I must learn and replicate. I'd rather just work my job, do my other hobbies in my free time, and spend my money on retro games if I want to. It's way more cost effective than hunting and reselling unless those things ARE your hobby. I'd rather be woodworking, doing art, remodeling my house, etc. Going to make a hardwood shelf to display the gameboy color and NES / games that I'm going to buy online with money I efficiently got from working a few hours overtime (time and a half) at my decently paid job. Much love to Rick and those who make these videos. Will continue to binge watch the hell out of this series and the next season.
4:13 That media shelf, it is a sign to me, hahahaha. I was watching another TH-camr's game room video the other day and he posted in his description a link to the media shelves that he used, guess what, it is the same one that you purchased in this video. It's a sign to me, hahaha. The shelves pretty much are so adjustable, they can hold a variety of different games from handhelds to regular sized game cases.
It has been really slow going for me too. Here in Minnesota everybody hibernates so all of the garage sales that I do really good at won't start back up until late March
True. Up in Northern MN, it’s always a slow grind finding deals. Maybe once a month, I find something decent out at thrift stores. I can’t wait for garage sales to pick up again... in June.
Always put backing on your shelves, in addition to providing a background to the shelf, it also helps stabilize the shelf so it doesn't collapse in on itself :)
I started flipping games after watching your channel. It has been going great! Best deal was from Facebook. PSP Go, DSI plus 6 games, 5 PSP games, 2 SNES games $200. I sold the PSP Go for $205 and a pokemon Heartgold for $90 and kept the rest. Thank you for showing me how great flipping games can go.
Your lucky there are so many goodwills near your area, we only have one within a 40 mile radius and it is absolutely horrible. These goodwill's you go to look GREAT!
WOAH! That goodwill has SOO many vhs tapes. I’m a huge vhs collector! And the goodwills where I live mostly got rid of all their tapes. You’re very lucky 😂
Hey! I was at a pawn shop yesterday and saw some NES and Genesis games there! They were marked $15, and after looking them up, they were only worth around $5-$10, but I still thought it was cool! I don't think I've ever seen that before, especially since they had about 20 games of each.
The pinball arcade titles are fun! If you see the Williams Collection grab it. The publisher lost the rights to those tables so they are no longer available online. Only way to play them is on a hard copy. There are plenty out there though so it shouldn't be too expensive. The Gorgar table is my fave!
Been killing it here at my goodwills.Two minecrafts for 360 .1 minecraft for xbox 1.Disney dance party 1 and 2.Orangebox for 360.Hip hop dance for 360 sealed.Forza motorsport 7 for xbox 1.Madden 17 for 360 .2 copys of mario kart wii.Ncaa basketball 10 for 360.Also about 20 other $10-15 games.Hope it stays strong here.
Bummer brother... NCAA 14 is like the one game I have been searching for forever!!! Glad that they at least hooked you up with the case for free. Hope you had a great holiday Rick!!! PS: I love anything FF7, so Advent Children is excellent in my eyes...
10:08 i wish i had a store to buy VHS tapes. i love seeing them and sometimes i want to buy some of them. those cartoon dvds you passed on i would buy all of them.
I don’t know if you’re in a rental but if not there are smart switches you can (or an electrician can if that’s more comfortable) install to replace the switch. That way you technically don’t even need to manually turn it on or off. You can just use a smart device to do it.
I like the media shelf you got at Best Buy hopefully it’ll be around the next few years so I can get a shelf or two my boyfriend and I want to buy land build a house and incorporate a game room for me and him and those shelves will definitely come in handy to store our games and whatever else we put on the shelf
Oof. Yeah the grind is real sometimes, my friend. I’m starting to flip things myself from what I have had for years and it’s a grind. I will say that once my free relistings are up for some of the things I’m trying to offload on eBay, I’m pulling them and taking them to the local thrift store because they are not selling at ALL.
This reminds me of me seeing a N64 Paper Mario cart for sale at a local game store for $30, I knew it’s actual value was at least double that. Easy move.
I've been looking for a Turtles Movie VHS to go with my Neca toys. And it sucks not getting that gem. Once I found Star Wars Battlefront 2 for the Xbox back when it was super expensive. So excited to get that jackpot but I sold it on a site that eventually went defunct. so. Womp womp.
I yelled out rip when you opened that NCAA 14 case. Glad you were able to get a copy for the 360! Should definitely pick up that final fantasy movie if it’s there next time.
Just recently got a ps vita cib for 80, came with a cod game and mortal combat. Sold the console for 175 and the mk for 30.. but that was my first “expensive” deal

Oh, Hey Aaron, didn’t expect you to be here
I binged your $10 videos in more than a week and I’m so glad I’m finally caught up.
That’s amazing, thanks for tuning in Josh!
Hes a Gamer and a retro person. I like his show too. His show gave me ideas. But now how on earth can i organized my room. Is that the Elite shelve?
Does anyone else like Retro Ricks videos as soon as they start bc you know they're gonna be good, or am I the only one.......?
I love it
I always hit play and like at the same time.

Finally on the Gameye train. Prices are NOT 100% but its great for quick checking if a game is $3 or $30.
The Collections looking great! I just started a Wii U game collection! So good luck on other video game hunting videos!
Ngl the wii u is going to be the next gamecube expect worse/better then the games are gonna get crazy prices on the next years or maybe I'm just too much but who knows but if theres one thing is better to get em before it's a gen 2 gamecube.

Lol
That's funny X)
The constant need for more storage, a collectors sometimes dream/nightmare
After just hearing about Tetris great Jonas Neubauer’s passing, I desperately needed this video. Thank you.

You have the best channel on youtube man, I envy you so much that you get those thrift and goodwill stores over there...greetings from Spain.
Mario, thank you so much for the kind words!!
@@retrorick MARIO?
The new shelves look great! Must’ve been satisfying to finally organize haha 🔥
I just discovered this channel 2 weeks ago, and I am a fan of your videos! Please keep up the great work!
Hey Rick how’s your day been going I’m currently watching the vid just wanted to say hey

Thanks Rick for giving me something to watch on Mondays. I always look forward to your videos . Keep up the good work! 👍🏼👍🏼
WOAH! That goodwill has SOO many vhs tapes. I’m a huge vhs collector! And the goodwills where I live mostly got rid of all their tapes. You’re very lucky 😂
What is better to wake up and start they day with breakfast and a new Video from Rick! Awesome! Keep up the good work mate, i love it! :)
The best part is the TMNT Cartoons on VHS. Pretty soon we will have to be calling it vintage though......LOL!!! MAN I AM GETTING OLD!!!!!

I have that exact shelf lol. I broke a couple components myself too. Happy with how it displays games though
Whats the name of the shelf? Thanks!
I have the same pair of slippers as the guy that you bought NCAA 14 from. Nice.
This is always fun to make and your videos bring me much joy!
That shelf is awesome. I purchased one and it was perfect. I already ordered a second one.
I got a lot of birthday and Christmas money and now I’m starting to make my own game collection

Great finds. I can’t even go to the thrifts because my province is on lockdown
New subscriber here! Very well done video and looking forward to learning more and more about video games to be on the lookout for!
Nice finds in this drought 😅. Duck Dodgers is a underrated show,use to always watch it on Boomerang. U really lucked out with Ncaa 14!!
Learning a lot about something I've been playing since I could walk. I love video gaming.. Nintendo 4 Lyf!!
Love the grind brotha, keep it up. Videos are fire as always.
Man, what finds on both versions of NCAA 14 even if one is only the case
I like the media shelf you got at Best Buy hopefully it’ll be around the next few years so I can get a shelf or two my boyfriend and I want to buy land build a house and incorporate a game room for me and him and those shelves will definitely come in handy to store our games and whatever else we put on the shelf
Great pickups!
But the best pickup is that duck tales VHS.
Duck tales and Darkwing Duck; 2 of my top 10 favorite cartoons.
With the shelf’s your game collection is 10 times better than mine
That final fantasy movie is very good. Bummer 14 wasn't in there , I was hyped at the thumbnail.
Getting close to 40k subs Rick🔥
Keep up the great vids🙏
It now comes to get a shelf
You had a typo
I LOVE how you were like maybe it’s in one of these and you guys checked them 😂
Totally missed that Madden 17 on the 360. Last one on the console. Has some crazy value
Another great vid as always!
Awesome Game shelf setup.
learn something new every time ... cheers Rick
That mario frame I'd totally get for my game room that's really cool.
I am absolutely investing in some of those shelves. They are perfect
Oof. Yeah the grind is real sometimes, my friend. I’m starting to flip things myself from what I have had for years and it’s a grind.

Haahahaha we finally got a shot of the wife and baby! What a happy family....
Goodwill in Hot Springs is still lame Rick, I need another trip up through Benton, Bryant, and Little Rock.
Great video sir! I have 2 sealed copies of NCAA football 14 for PS3
Love Ducktales!! Great pickup
That NCAA I just got that about 3 weeks ago and flipped it for great money I wish I could of found a bunch more of them.
I like how impressed he is with games in good condition. That’s what games look like from people who take care of their shit.
This reminds me of me seeing a N64 Paper Mario cart for sale at a local game store for $30, I knew it’s actual value was at least double that. Easy move.
What type of shelf would you recommend for VHS tapes in clamshell cases and large books?
Bruh your DVD knowledge in next level maybe in the future you could do some DVD videos?
I loved that looney tunes game when I was a kid!
What’s up bro bro keep up the good work I dig the collection never stop 🛑 !!
Ahh the messy room. We all need more shelves .
I've been looking for a Turtles Movie VHS to go with my Neca toys. And it sucks not getting that gem. Once I found Star Wars Battlefront 2 for the Xbox back when it was super expensive. So excited to get that jackpot but I sold it on a site that eventually went defunct. so. Womp womp.
Dude, you missed the $20.00+ Rose Red DVD at the stop with the sealed Pinball game! Just a Heads up
Noooo! I’ve sold that before, thanks for the heads up...I’ll go back and see if it’s there
Grind on brother!! Tmnt was so nostalgic for me.
Been waiting for a new video😄
Every Monday and Thursday!
Price charting is all over the place with prices, definitely check another source when trying to price something
Always will say I love the game room u should get a few arcade 1ups nba jam and turtles u can’t go wrong
I yelled out rip when you opened that NCAA 14 case. Glad you were able to get a copy for the 360! Should definitely pick up that final fantasy movie if it’s there next time.

@@thesugarybear lol I already have it
Great shelf! Could you by any chance share the dimensions with us?
I have one of those shelves and they are kind of flimsy. I went and built my own out of wood and painted them black then mounted them to the wall.
Just wanted to say I really enjoyed Duck Dodgers, it's pretty fun overall imo. I'd definitely give it a watch.
Just recently got a ps vita cib for 80, came with a cod game and mortal combat. Sold the console for 175 and the mk for 30.. but that was my first “expensive” deal
Great job Rick
Question I'd like that shelf where did you get it at I need one myself please and thank you.
It was slow but a soild find on the wwe and ncaa games. My area in toronto Canada is very slow as well
tht game collection crazy now
niceeeee liking the new shelf!
I tell people all the time who are trying to get into video games to first look at thrift stores and Not always Walmart and places like that.
You literally go to goodwill all the time but you spent 100 dollars on a shelf at bestbuy xD
Haha quite ironic indeed, but i guess its just for hygeine reasons
Thanks for the app suggestion
Love the duck tales dvd's pick ups!!!
Duck tales was a vhs the 2 DVDs are duck dodgers the alter ego of Daffy duck
You should get Advent Children! I really enjoyed it at least. Lol
Good finds Retro
Good wills in my aera are dropping the price on games and dvds to 99 cents. Same for board games.
I want that Mario Pic that's cool
I’ve played both the WWE games, super fun, great finds!
