No one else saw the nipple cream just chillen next to the WCW Figures? I'm ROLLING on the ground.
Lolllllll
Rick paid 5 dollars for it and it has a value of 10.. (even though you know he's keeping it)
Specifically came to the comments to see if anyone else saw that! LMAO!
Seeing a bag full of nintendo games gets my blood flowing! 😁
I love your parrapa the rappa pfp
Same
I love your videos collector luck just been watching them all day
some great pickups this week man! Had no idea Ninja Gaiden 3 was nearing $100
@@Thewolfguys.cartoons2000 hey me too!
When I got my NES, strategy guides hadn’t come out yet. Had to go through my copies of Nintendo Power later on or call the Nintendo Power hotline for tips. God I’m old. 😅
I had a few Players Guide’s Nintendo sent every time you renewed your Nintendo Power subscription, kind of mix between a strategy guide and Nintendo Power.
Literally was just thinking to myself- I wonder when the next episode would be up? Then I got the notification! Haha
I love this series.
its all about that NES love in todays episode!
@@TS-ez3rf So glad you are enjoying it!
First strategy guide: Killer Instinct on the snes, so cool seeing all the flow charts learning how to pull off the "Killer Combos"
i wore my thumbs out playing killer instinct on super nintendo!
I still have my Killer Instinct Gold for the N64 so good
My first strategy guide was for the first Donkey Kong Country on SNES. I once got grounded from video games for about a week when I was around 4-5 years old so I studied that book cover to cover and memorized all the hidden areas and bonuses. I was the king of that game when I came back to it
My first strategy guide was for Pokemon red/blue, I remember getting it at the scholastic book fair, also that Mario sticker on the left of the console looks like he's sniffing his own but, rofl
SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR WAS AMAZING!!!
You should add a mid segment similar to the one you did about strategy guides called “ Reminiscing with Rick”
ohhh i like that! Thanks for the suggestion!
Haha loved that conversation you had with the Goodwill employee. You could TOTALLY tell the nostalgia took hold of her in that moment. My first strategy guide that I bought in the store was for Secret of Mana on SNES! Oh man... I loved that game but it was my gateway RPG and I needed that guide. Great video man!
Totally, i love when convos like that happen! Secret of mana is one of my fav snes games...love that soundtrack!
I didn't know about game guides when I was a kid in the 80s/90s.
oh man, they were the best!
It IS so satisfying to complete a game that you’ve already had a case or manual for. Thats why I grab the case/manuals every time if they are empty (on good games). The employees think I’m weird sometimes for saying I still want the case! Haha!
the best!!! Ha im the same way!!!
My first strategy guide was for Donkey Kong 64. It actually came with the game and my original N64 from a bundle sold at Sam’s Club back in the day. It lead to an obsession with getting the guides for as many games as possible for the rest of my early gaming existence.
yup..i have that one too...great game!
my strategy guide was silent hill, that part where you had to play a piano note.
Made my mother spend that 20$ after crying and spending multiple hours on that piano.
I remember in high school making Pokemon red/blue/yellow strategy guides and walkthroughs , team building techniques and ideal move sets typing them up on an electronic typewriter and selling them to elementary and middle school kids on the bus in the mornings and making n64 , and ps1 strategy guides for other high schoolers. Never really needed strategy guides started playing nes and master system when I was 6 and they were the current gen my father was a gamer from way back in the pong days through several Atari systems he taught me how to master any game. taught my kids young too.
i love all those pokemon games...crazy that its about to be 25 years old
@@retrorick yes totally doesn't seem like that long ago they released and nearing 40 myself.
The WWF Attitude strategy guide was my first. My mom got it for me for a buck at the game shop in the mall. I used to get them just because I thought they were cool to have and also because they helped me unlock some of the hidden characters. Great times.
First Strategy Guide was for Zelda 2 on the NES. Didn’t know book stores carried stuff like that until a friend brought his over one day and I went out and got one for myself with my Dad.
First strategy guide: Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec for the PS2. It worked great. Still got it to this day.
“Fabios revenge” 🤣
haha stole that line from pixel game squad
My first strategy guild that comes to mind was for ps1 tomb raider 3 I think along with many others... ahh the days of writing codes down on bits paper kept in case. Still puts a smile on my face when I find someone's codes hidden away.
My very first strategy guide was Final Fantasy 10, the wife and I stood in line at midnight release. They gave us free pizza and we bought the guide at the same time. Of course we couldn’t walk out the store with a guide but they mailed it to us about a month later.
The first strategy guide I ever bought was the one for Goldeneye 64. I remember buying at my local Toys R Us.
nice! One of my fav multiplayer games as a kid
Rip toys r us
Resident Evil was the first strategy guide I ever saw and I bought it as soon as I saw it because I was stuck in the game. I don’t recall ever seeing strategy guides prior to that. There are so many games I would’ve never been able to beat without strategy guides.
Mortal Kombat, Super Mario Bros. All-Star, 1942, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Arcade and Ninja Gaiden 3 are some of my favorite games
i love all of those! Pumped to try out Ninja Gaiden 3
@@retrorick hope you enjoy Ninja Gaiden 3
The first strategy guide I ever got was for Pokémon Red/Blue. As a 6th grader in 1999 I read through that thing in school so many times. Oh the nostalgia is STRONG!
I believe my first guide was the official Nintendo Guide for Animal Crossing on Gamecube. Usually I don't like going to estate sales for video games because I've had next to no luck at them, but this one spoke to me, and they sold it for a dollar. I actually ended up using it a few times.
Loved the convo with the Goodwill cashier. Feels like she would love your channel. Hope you tell her about it the next time you see her.
ha, i should have pitched it to her!!!
Zelda strategy guide was much needed in ‘85. Even finding articles and Nintendo power magazine was a big help
i love Nintendo Power!!!
Awesome video. My favoritebit of nostalgia is playing 1942 as an arcade game, while I played so many hours of Ninja Gaiden III. Was really surprised to hear how much it now goes for...
My first ever game guide I remember getting was the Fallout 3 guide when the game released! That boy was a huge encyclopedia of gaming goodness I used it to the bone as a kid!
My first strategy guide was my Nintendo Power magazines. I started getting them from issue #1. Love them. I'm kicking myself in the butt for getting rid of them a long time ago.
Long before game guides I remember calling up a game hotline which provided tips and tricks over the phone. A relic of the past right there... :)
The first strategy guide that I can remember using a ton was Pokemon red/blue/yellow. Loved that thing and always used it to build teams whenever I ran through the game.
For a game - Final Fantasy for NES - it was a special edition Nintendo power. Ninja Gaiden had one too. My first and favorite is the official Nintendo players guide that came w my NES.
i miss nintendo power so much
Finally I’m caught up took me about two weeks... found you and started watching from episode 1... and because of it I myself have started collecting and reselling...and in the last two weeks my collection has grown so much...even got a free ps2 and ps3 just by asking somebody that turned in games at a pawn shop...let’s see how this goes.. thank you Rick
Received the Secret of Mana guide book with the game as a Christmas or Birthday gift. Definitely helped me beat the game that following summer.
one of my favorite games! Thanks Ted
Lucky dude!! Did you know MK on the SNES was the most expensive game we ever bought here?! I think with tax it came to $74 back then!! I think part of the reason why it was so expensive is they didn't want people really to buy it because all the controversy
I bought the strategy guide for Ratchet and Clank back in mid 2000’s I think was my first. Because of your channel I’m out hunting now, it’s so much fun. Picked up a PS2 in great shape last night for $30!!
I remember looking over the MK2 guide over and over because I wanted to learn all of Shang Tsung's moves and character shifts
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City was my first Strategy Guide. I still have it too.
dude..i love vice city so much, i remember just wondering around in that game for hours and hours
@@retrorick me too. Still my favorite GTA.
Same here gta vice city was my first strategy guide as well back in middle school in 2003 or 2004. Loved it and wish I kept it
When i started gaming.there was no guides.most info came from computer magazines.mainly game reviews some walk throughs and a cheat code page.1982 zx spectrum 48k.1st game owned horace goes skiing.i always wonder how many games over the years have i played.like your stuff bud.full of memories.
I've never caught a video when it's gone up because I just found retros channel less than a week ago. I watch way too much TH-cam when I'm in the hospital. First strategy guide I ever remember getting was GTA San Andreas on PS2 launch day, and I loved reading about the cars and all that. Didn't use it much to help me, more for customizing the cars. Thing was as big as a college textbook
ha gta san adreas is amazing....though i favor vice city, both are incredible
@@retrorick vice city is where it's at. The sound track is phenomenal, it just draws you in every time. I need to check out the ridiculously overpriced vice city stories
I remember buying a used/tattered Pokémon stadium 2 game guide at a garage sale that was suuuper helpful. Made me buy one for every Pokémon game I got afterwards.
The guide I remember using quite a bit was a photo copy of the legend of zelda majoras mask. Idk how or where I got it from but I needed it. Most memorable guide was the ffxii collectors guide my family bought for me, it was rare getting anything video game related as a kid due to finances. Great video! Trust me, I've almost missed a big fish as well on my last hunt 😑
First strategy guide I remember getting was the Pokemon Red guide so much fun. I still have the Gold & Silver one very cool. My favorite would have to be Yoshi Story the colors, images, and the fact there aren't a ton of walkthroughs of that makes me want to get a new one
Pokemon Red was my first strategy guide from my mom! I still have it to this day and I actually love buying strategy guides to this day
Wow great to see this amazing channel growing, it actually got me back into collecting. Picked up a perfect SNES for $40 with Biker Mice from Mars, had no idea how much the game was when i got it. And hitting the goodwill and thrifts every week now, thanks so much for providing some of the best informational content on TH-cam.
First strategy guide was for game boy Pokémon red & blue- my sister, cousin & myself would sit next to the wall outlet taking turns using the plug charger and flipping through the book to work together completing the game. So many hours spent sitting in the corner of the living room like that 😂
Ha, game guides are definitely before my time, it's true I usually just look up walkthroughs on youtube if I get stuck on a game. Been actually doing that quite a lot recently for the og Shantae game, it's surprisingly hard! I wouldn't mind picking up any if I ever get the chance, they look really cool!
I am really into art books though! I love seeing all the details that go into making a game!
Oh man my best memory of a strategy guide was Majora's Mask. I would have never been able to get all the masks without it.
First strategy guide is silent hill on ps1 i miss those day man good finds BTW!!!
I constantly check my local Facebook marketplace and I hardly ever see deals like that one. Good find.
First guide for a game was for Killer Instinct for the SNES. We got it to learn the combos and the finishers. After that for Chrono Trigger to learn how to get all the different endings.
My brother and I got the original Final Fantasy for Christmas the year it came out, and we needed the strategy guide because we got stuck. I still have that game and guide to this day and it sparked my love for RPGs!
Most nostalgic for Lolo in that lot. My sister, Brother, and I would play that game for hours when I was too little to play and had to watch haha.
heck yeah! I love lolo...great games
Same, my family loved playing lolo together
I loved Nintendo power when I was a kid. I gave my parents money for a subscription so I could get it before we even had the Nintendo. I wish I had kept those. It is so hard to find them in the wild, but I did find an issue at a Goodwill a few weeks ago, with the poster!
I still have my original Nintendo Power Super Mario Bros 3 Strategy Guide! That game was such a big deal when it came out. It's still so much fun to play even after all these years.
First strategy guide ever was the official Nintendo players guide. My favorite strategy guide memory though is having the guide for FF VII for a while year before I ever got the game.
I still own my original copy of Pokémon Snap and Goldeneye for N64 as well as well as Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow for Gameboy. They are all missing their front and back covers which shows how well loved they are!
I got out of my collection 10 years ago ..I was one of the first people to start the collecting craze back in the mid 90’s..about 2012 I unloaded everything
My first strategy guide was FF3. It was a pretty thick book and it needed to be. That game has so many hidden areas. Great week for ya Rick!
My first strategy guide was actually the Nintendo Power magazine. The magazine always had hints and cheats. To be honest before that there was always the 1-900 number lol
Fun story about Street Fighter 2010. Back when I was super young there was a street fighter 1 arcade machine in our mall. I always wanted to play it but never got to. I had a magazine with a Funco Land ad in it and it listed “Street Fighter” under NES games. Naturally I thought that had to be the same game as the arcade lol.
We ordered it and to my dismay...sf2010 showed up. It ended up being one of my top ten NES games of all time. I was a pro. Play that game, it’s really good!
My first strategy game guide was for WWF War Zone on PS1! I think it was late 90's but it really did help me with strategy. Also loved nintendo power, playstation magazine and the tips and tricks magazines!
I never had strategy guides back then only ones I have now are Super Mario Bros Wii and Resident Evil 4 GameCube Awesome NES Score
My first guides were Donkey Kong Country 1 & 2! I still have them. I used them a ton to find everything. And also to answer the game show questions.
Re-listening / watching while at work and I know people always say this but I legit almost spit out my coffee at the phrase “Fabio’s Revenge.”
Hahahahaha
back in 1996 i had to buy the game guide to ChronoTrigger for the SNES because it was kicking my butt and i found the guide in Spanish, which was no problem for me because Spanish is my second language. Back then we didn't have any guides online like we have today, definitely a nostalgic buy and would recommend buying these for the info they provide and other game adds from the time period.
First strategy guide I ever had was Super Mario Bros 3 and man did my family and I wear that guide out. I'm fortunate enough that I grew up with a family who all played video games. I even inherited the family atari!
My first strategy guide was for Silent Hill on PS1! I got so stuck that I couldn't play it anymore then I found the guide at the bookstore...might have been Walden Books! 😂
Mine, which I still have, was from the 90s when my dad and I beat Donkey Kong Country. I replayed it recently on the Switch and I still remembered the hidden spots lool
Don’t think it was my first, but most memorable strategy guide is the original Resident Evil 3
2:32 same with me. especially when turn on a wii that i bought at a thrift store and Zelda pop's out of it.
I think my first strategy guide was for 007 Golden Eye. I loved studying it over and over!
I think my first strategy guide I remember was for Donkey Kong Country 1. However, I remember the first strategy guide really helping me was for the Zelda Collection for GameCube for Majora’s mask. I was completely lost in that game without the guide,
My first strategy guide was the Pokémon Diamond and pearl guide. I used it so much that the front cover fell off.
my first strategy guide was for pokemon silver. the ice cave puzzle thing before the last gym was impossible for 8 year old me to solve lol
hahaha yeah it was
Dang. I remember Karnov ... don't know why but I remember it being fantastic! RC Pro Am and 1942 are my most nostalgic, though. Cheap and fantastic.
Ah strategy guides. A list art kids today will never know. My first was the NES Atlas. Had a bunch of games and maps that were super helpful!
Super Smash Bros Brawl was the first guide book my brother and I got from Game Crazy to help us beat the Great Maze. By the time my mom got back with the book, my brother and I had already figured it out, lol!
Nice Pac-Man Shirt Retro
thanks man, just got it at Old Navy
@@retrorick Nice the Turtles and Sonic shirt I got at Meijer I always check for newer ones
I had that exact same Mari 64 guide that I got at the Nintendo 64 launch. I don’t know for sure, but i think the first guide I ever had would have either been for Link to the Past or Mortal Kombat II. I THINK it was probably MK II because that was the first game i ever bought for myself for the SNES, and then I got Link to the Past and Super Mario World a little later.
Resident evil one guide for ps1 was my first strategy guide. Used the guide just for one puzzle but loved the game so freaking much... Best 40 guilders ever spent.
I’m glad you uploaded something for me to watch
We have no power in VA, the well is dry and I might have to cancel some potential job interviews due to the weather as well
I love your content though man gotta stay positive and count any blessings no matter how little they are!
The Nintendo Power Super Mario Bros 3 special issue was my very first strategy guide ever.
My first strategy guide was for the first resident evil for PS1
First strategy guide was for Pokémon Red on original Gameboy. I wore that guide out trying to figure out what Pokémon to use for each gym leader.
My first guide book was for Metroid on N.E.S.
Got the system back in 1986 for Christmas..
Still have all my games and all the other systems I've gotten over the years! Still have my Atari system and games too. :)
First ever guide I used was for Resident Evil on PS1, never had a memory card so beat the game on my one and only playthrough that day.
I never even heard of a grey zapper
The first strategy guide I remember reading was for THPS. We need to know how to get the secret tape on the Phoenix down hill level. Then when I worked at GameStop I would pick up random guides when they "penny'd" them out. I figured a penny for a book was pretty good.
My first guide I remember using was the Gamepro NBA Jam strategy guide. I remember thinking how awesome it was to unlock secret characters on that game.
My first strategy guide was the Official Pokemon Red and Blue guide. Helped my fill up a good portion of the pokedex!
My first strategy guide was the Nintendo Power Guide for Super Mario Bros. 3. I'm old.
ha dude i would love to get my hands on that now!
I never had strategy guide as a kid but my first one was Pokémon Emrald I read for nostalgia
Same my first one was purchased simply to have more game stuff on my shelves lol
My first ever game guide was Pokemon Crystal. Still actually have it! Couldn't live without it.
My first game guide was for Pokémon heartgold. Was also my first Pokémon game and I had no idea how to play. Now I can play the game without even thinking of it.
ha for sure...i actually have that game complete in the big box!
@@retrorick same, well wouldn’t call it complete, it’s missing the cardboard poke walker holder but that seems to be a common issue with a lot of collectors
My first guide I remember getting and wishing I held on to was the Super Mario RPG guide!
I remember struggling so much with Ocarina of Time on the 64 and a lot of my friends having trouble as well, I begged and pleaded with my parents for the guide but finally my awesome aunt got it for me.
First strategy guide: Digimon World 3 (a very meaty JRPG)
I also regret throwing it out because I figured there's the internet nowadays.
There's nothing better than the physical book with all the beautiful artwork!
The funny thing for me is that I'm just barely too young to have gotten strategy guides. I grew up like right after the online guides really got good and popular so I never really owned a strategy guide haha
