I live near Boston, and besides Pax I have never been to a convention. I did get a sick Bowser figuart at Pax, months before they were available retail. If there's retro conventions in the Boston area I haven't heard of them. I would love to go to one.
Not going to lie that VP section looks like a perfect sensory room to decompress. This cons are amazing and fun but can get overwhelming at times to. We enjoyed how friendly everyone was when we went to SEGE. Fell in love with the community instantly.
I got back from Japan a couple months back and found a complete Jack Bros for just $75 USD after the currently really good exchange rate. So many expensive Japanese items being sold in the states can be acquired for less than half those asking prices once you’re in Japan.
Awesome video! I'm a new subscriber, I subscribed to your channel earlier today! I already love your video so much! You guys already became my favorite! Keep up the amazing work! Thanks so much for the content! I'm so proud to be a gamer ❤🎮🕹️🎉🙌✨
Great video as always guys! And I definitely agree. The community is great and SoCal is a very social expo. The energy is amazing. Definitely met some friends there including you guys! ❤️
What an awesome looking atmosphere. People who love video games, talk about them, seems like a great place to be for sure. The editing on this vid and a lot of your vids is great. Each vid truly feels like it's own with a great story. ☝️💪🙌
We have been to Japan twice, once when I proposed to Elisa, and once for our Honeymoon 😀 It has been about 9 years since our last trip though, so we hope to go again soon!
Wow! Nice that you guys reached out to Caleb for his Switch grail. Can't believe how much Oracle of Season is going for in the States. I got both of my Japanese Ages and Seasons NIB for about 25 USD a year ago! 😆 Headed to AZ the day after tomorrow.
Great video! Couple of quick thoughts: Wind Waker is the top tier of the Ocarina-style dungeon focused Zelda games, I also picked up a Japanese Super Famicom Dragon Quest game this month (V rather the VI), and finally David is awesome! I love his channel - hoping we’ll see more DQ stuff from him in the build up to the HD2D release of DQ3!
Lol enjoyed the Skyguy ADR. The Hunt for Red October was a laser Disc i played so many times back in the day, that cover art on the Sneakers and 5th Element was very cool and different. I also would have picked up Innerspace, you two must watch that one, Great Sci-fi comedy with Martin Short, Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan. i enjoyed the cover art on that one as well.
Seeing all that Anime is great. I finished getting the series of the early 2000's reprint of Rumiko Takahashi Ranma 1/2, Glad I was able to finish before the remake comes out on Netflix. It was my first Anime and what got me into Anime in the 90's I love Takahashi Work. Thanks for your Wonderful Content.
I disagree with the Wind Waker take and maybe because it’s extremely nostalgic for me since I grew up playing it and have it CIB but besides that you guys are great! New sub ✌🏻
are trips to Japan expensive? Also I heard you need to be accepted to visit, Is that true? If I could live one place it would defiantly be japan, I love how clean they keep the streets and how humble everybody is
Dan while I also prefer Connery as James Bond, Roger Moore made a couple of decent ones. Especially For Your Eyes Only which was an actual spy movie. Also did you not see The Usual Suspects? From the context of your comments I took it you did not. Highly recommended movie!
@@JRPGLife Even below entries like Zelda 2 and Triforce Heroes? I don't think there's a bad official Zelda game but there's definitely a pecking order.
Love your guys stuff so this isn’t so much a comment on you guys but watching all the TH-cam convention videos is confusing to me because everything is soooo expensive and you have to pay to get in so I’m just confused why anyone would buy anything at these places and not just order it online.
It's a fun experience. You can meet with friends or make new friends. Play arcades for free. Tetris tournament watch or attend. There are always events to attend. There are deals to be had you just need to know your numbers. Before we had a TH-cam channel, we would go attend with family and find great deals then, too.
@@JRPGLife fair enough I was just very surprised considering how many niche and awesome games I have learned about through your channel that you weren't a fan. What was it that you didn't like about it ig you don't mind me asking?
I enjoyed Windwaker, but not nearly as much as the other Zelda games. If I had to put my finger on it, probably the monotony of the boat that wore on me the most.
@@JRPGLife I can understand where you're coming from on that one, I guess when I was younger I always wanted a pirate game to play and Wind Waker satisfied that urge in a weird way. The exploration of finding the treasure scattered around the world to unlock that gold ship was also a really neat. Sorry if I came across rude in the first comment appreciate you taking the time out of your day to talk.
You’re asking for trouble with that WW comment. I don’t consider it the best Zelda, but worst? Especially when the likes of Zelda 2, Skyward Sword and those pesky CD-i games exist
CDi wouldn't count as they aren't officially apart of the series but games like Zelda 2, Phantom Hourglass and Triforce Heroes definitely deserve the bottom spots over Windwaker!
What's the craziest thing you have ever picked up at a Gaming Expo? Comment Below!
never been to an expo because i live were they don’t have any
I live near Boston, and besides Pax I have never been to a convention. I did get a sick Bowser figuart at Pax, months before they were available retail. If there's retro conventions in the Boston area I haven't heard of them. I would love to go to one.
A kurumi figure from date alive
@@JRPGLife never been to an expo. Would love to start something like that here in Japan. I'll have to look into that after I get home.
Godzilla PS4.. I wish.. 😅
Feeling under the weather past few days nothing better than seeing a new JRPG life video to help keep my mind off it
Feel better soon! 🤒
That voice over of Chase was the greatest thing I've heard today😂😂
The BEST community ever. The ending to this episode sums it up ❤
This community truly is the best ❤️

Thanks so much for the deals! We love them 😊
Some of those TMNT toys were crazy to see! I wish we had cons like this in my area

SEGE was incredible! Yeah, the decompress room helps a lot 😅
@@JRPGLifeit truly was. It was like Pringles we got hooked on the first try and now want more lol
Windwaker is great how dare you! Lol
😅
Love the voice over. Gave me most extreme elimination vibes
Hahaha
This video had the perfect amount of laser disc content. You guys rock!
Haha thanks so much 😀
Haha lmao funny how you got bob’s burger voice in that one! Made me laugh but good save on that edit voiceover 👍 great video!
SkyGuy is the man!
Dusty looks kinda nervous right there LOL
Love the videos look forward to them every time
Thanks so much for watching 😊
Sneakers is one of my favorite movies!

Totally, we can't wait to visit again 🙂
Sneakers is great. Love the soundtrack too. The Branford Marsalis Quartet did a great job in this.
I truly love and enjoyed your videos. Thank you!❤
Awesome video as always
Awesome video as always. Have a great day

Just discovered this channel and saw that these guys have never gone retro shopping in Japan.
They should really go. It would blow their minds.
We have been to Japan twice, once when I proposed to Elisa, and once for our Honeymoon 😀
It has been about 9 years since our last trip though, so we hope to go again soon!
Happy Sunday friends!!!!
Is no one going to mention how great Morts band sounded. I didn’t know he could sing!
They are great!
Awesome video guy&lady 😎!
JRPGLife gangggg
love your videos so much!
Thanks so much for watching 😀
Ooo Love Hina. i never finished it but it was funny. 😊
I love Dragonheart!

I spied Dominion Tank Police there. Love that one.
Windwaker is GOATED… how dare you!?
I understand the appeal of it, it's just my least favorite Zelda 😅
Ohhhh poor Nick. If only he knew the disappointment that was coming from that turtles game later that night lol
😅
Another great video! What is that watch you have with yellow strap?
Thanks! It's a Space Invaders watch from Nubeo 😀
@@JRPGLife thanks! It's cool.
I was so sad to see how quickly you skipped over the magnum force laser discwithout caring😢😂 i would love to have that one
JRPGLife back in action convention/expo time
0:10 Holy shit!!! Axl Rose!?!?!?
Should have got the duel laserdisc, damn
I hope my voice impression was suitable 😂
It was great! Lol
Wait, that WASN’T Chase?

Another good video.👏 👌
Thanks so much 😊
I’m glad you said Windwaker is one of the worst Zelda games. I‘ve mucked through some bad games, but I still don’t want to finish Windwaker.
Such a great even and community. My pokemon n64 was a great pickup along with MVC 2 for PS2
Very cool!
Roger Moore Bond is the best Bond!
Shots fired! 😅
Jack Bros as far as I know never got a U.S. release, and was only a Japanese port.
It did get an English release, but a very small one 🙂
@@JRPGLife so I see, and looks very expensive
What website do you guys use to price games I'm looking through my house and found some old but gold condition ds games
Nowadays we actually use the free Goodiez app 🙂
@@JRPGLife are you 2 currently looking for any ds games wii wiiu Xbox 1 or Xbox 360 games
@@codyjc1000knot at this time. We also really only purchase in local game stores or at gaming expos anymore 😊
Aghhh that Japanese Phenomena laser disc is a grail item. 😢
Inner space. Need to get.
Please watch this movie. I promise u will love. Let me know 😎
I can’t believe you said windwaker was one of the worst ones that’s crazy
Yep! It's a good game, but my least favorite Zelda so far 😅
@@JRPGLife that’s fair it’s ur opinion
Love the pictures next time we meet again I got some rpg merch I would like share with you

are trips to Japan expensive? Also I heard you need to be accepted to visit, Is that true? If I could live one place it would defiantly be japan, I love how clean they keep the streets and how humble everybody is
They can be pricey, but we haven't heard of any acceptance policy 🙂

@@JRPGLife strong cast, strong story
I KNOW this man didn't just say wind waker is one of the worst zeldas
I did! I said it's a good game, but my least favorite Zelda 🙂
@@JRPGLife Even below entries like Zelda 2 and Triforce Heroes? I don't think there's a bad official Zelda game but there's definitely a pecking order.
Wind Waker is way better than Breath of the Wild, I hated BOTW until I added mods to make it somewhat a playable experience.
Wind Waker being one of the worst Zeldas is certainly a take

Windwaker is the best Zelda of all time. And why is the video edited to choppy, with all the back and forth between people?
Hope you guys had fun!
We always do! 😀
"One of the worst Zelda's" - JRPG 2024. And I actually agree. Got so sick and tired of that stupid boat :P
Yes! 😅
