Nice way to kick off the new year Rich, looking well and very nice idea for a video good hearing your philosophy for the channel etc, I'm not a collector anymore myself unless my Resident Evils count haha, none the less I do enjoy seeing folk in the community show some pick ups and give opinions on the various titles etc. Look forward to your additional video style evolve over the year man.🕹🙌🎮🍀
I enjoyed hearing that Richard, was good to hear a bit of your back story and would certainly enjoy seeing future pick ups videos I think the more you do it, the more you get used to it. Anyone who knew me would never believe i would start a channel and appear on camera and here i am all these years later🤣 Oh, great thumbnail by the way👍
Thanks mate, that's good to hear as you seem very comfortable with it all and I see your videos as a good inspiration 👍 I do love a good face swap, any chance I can do one I will so the thumbnail was an ideal opportunity 😂
Ah brilliant to see you back in front the camera Richard, and hope to see more in the form of pick up vids as I really enjoy those especially when they're of the type of games I'm interested in like the stuff you pick up. I think you come across really well on cam mate and will only get easier. I jumped in the deep end and did some in front camera vids near the start, thought might aswell get it out the way if I'm gonna do the tubes and nice to be recognised aswell as recognising other people at events🙂 All the best for your channel this year mate👍
@retrotap haha wow I never feel like I come across as natural so I'll take that as a compliment. I've never had much in the way of self confidence so was a kind of fun challenge to myself doing some TH-cam videos, the comments are what kept me coming back, nice to finally find at least a few people that will listen to my nonsense😄
For me you should make videos that you enjoy instead of trying to fit a particular style. You do you but it’s always nice to learn more about each other 😊
Oh hello Richard! Awesome you're gonna try and be more on cam! I think it adds a lot of extra personality to the space we're in. You know, stand out a bit more over the long plays and no personality compilations and stuff. But I guess you're saying something like that in your own words too already. Might help the conversations around the games and the nostalgia indeed! Looking forward to see what 2025 will bring you and us and everyone here! Cheers! ps. Is Cooper captured on cam somewhere? (Jack Russells are cool!)
Thanks Jeffrey - I'd love to be able to set it up like you do but I'm not quite sure I can reveal my game face too often 😂 I don't have anything to show off Cooper yet but I'll try to get him involved somehow, he's awesome 😎
That was nice to get to know the richard behind the channel buddy and i think you will get along great now you have sat down and proved your ready. My channel never had me doing camera to face videos at the start and even now i get nervous making videos talking to the camera. you seemed pretty confident though dude so great start so go forth and kick ass with the next one 🍻👍
Happy New Year Richard, I hope you had a very merry Christmas, This was great, Really nice to hear about how you got into tubing , How the C64 was your first And a little bit of your history handsome personal Details, 6:57 It would be great to see you doing some pickups, Interesting to hear about your vinyl collection , You could show a bit of that off sometime, Nice to see you in front of the camera and I look forward to seeing what you put out this year, I've been a little bit absent from the tubes over the past couple of months Due to a huge work project And family commitments over the festive period But I'm finding time now To watch More videos And I'm looking forward to jumping back into it myself And hopefully put something out Soon although I plan to play A lot more games this year than I did last year so If I end up Getting a addicted to a huge game I may justice disappear never to be heard from again 😂
Hey Marc, HNY to you too mate. How annoying when work stops us from playing hah! Hope you got through it without feeling too exhausted mate. Looking forward to some more Marc magic this year, need a good laugh every now and then buddy.
Thought this was great Richard. Good to get to know your background including working as a developer. You’re not far from me so will give you a shout when next at an event in case you’re free. Your on camera work is fab; loved the VR (10 questions) you did. Have a nice weekend. Cheers 👍 Ps. ‘78 is the best year 😉
2025 the year of retrotap lets gooo Big up Kent mate 😊❤ Really nice to see you talk about yourself, was not aware of your love for music which is cool mate 😊 Great stuff mate glad to see you do this type of video😊
Nice to put a face to the voice, great to hear about your gaming past and interests. Did you programme the sign to say rude words? I was the leader of the playground wars, we won 😂. Happy new year.
Nice vid, Rich 🙂Obviously, I'm lucky enough to have known you for years (spoiler for YT viewers: he's a very nice chap, and also a proper laugh to be around - and he made my job an order of magnitude better when I worked with him) - so I can confirm this to all be True(tm). As someone who never had a C64 at the time, I love seeing you discover some new (always to me, usually to both of us) gem and playing it for the first time. Look forward to seeing what you dig up next! 😎👍

Thanks mate I appreciate how supportive you are, would love to get as natural as you are with it

@@Tetlee definitely seems natural to me, and always very personal too. We'll have to do a battle of the 8-bits sometime 😂

Thanks John, you're spot on. I'm going to keep that in mind 😊

Thanks mate I appreciate it. I always like how your videos feel like you're chatting to a mate, hope I can get that knack at some point.
@retrotap I always feel like I'm just getting by mate and cringe when I watch it afterwards 🤣 I'm sure you will do great mate 🙂👍
Enjoyed that. Did you try to programme rude words into the message board though? 🤔😂
🤣🤣🤣 not me Rach I didn't know any rude words then 😇😂 Hope you well 😊

Thank you Ed, I hope I can get to the point I am as comfortable as you seem on camera 😊 Have a great weekend too, big up to the 78 massive 😍😂😂
Thanks Richard, very kind. Easy to be self critical; I hate editing my vids and hearing all the ums and errs.

Hehe no I don't think I did, I was pretty square 🤓 I can imagine you leading team Speccy 😁 Happy New Year to you too 🎉
