    Wish there was a store this great in Texas, feels like it's just gamestop and the ocasional mom and pop shop that charges above retail price for everything.

      Same, where I am in Canada. There are NO good stores like this. If they do sell games, they sell them way overpriced.

    That store looked great. Speaking of FF8 on PC, I actually found a copy of it at a yard sale a couple years ago, box is not in the best shape, but it still sits proudly on my shelf to this day, will get to playing that version at some point - the PS1 version is where my heart is for that game though, so many memories (and hours) into it. Congrats on finding some new additions to the 3DS collection. It's going to be awesome - and sad - when you finish the hunt for them all as then it over, but then you can focus on another system (while looking for upgrades for the ones you have). Bookman's coming through, was unaware of that MMPR game, need to be on the lookout for that. Those deals on the boxes was insane, congrats on ALL the pickups, some bangers across all different platforms (games, books, movies, etc.). Always such a pleasure to check out a new video, keep killing it with all the incredible content, and looking forward to the next one (and hopefully the basement tour of that store in the future). Have a wonderful day to you both. #Roadto13k

    Fun fact about Bob & Doug McKenzie. Before making Strange Brew they were on the Canadian show SCTV. We were never supposed to see them in the States. The CBC had a rule that all their shows had to have a certain amount of Canadian content. The McKenzie brothers were making fun of Canadians to be edited out for American syndication. One week the show was under time and the sketch was included. Instant hit!

    Kirby Tilt n Tumble Box Only for $10.50. That's such a steal for that one and I heard that it's really Unique, Having to tilt the Game Boy Color to move Kirby. There was also Yoshi Topsy Turvy and Warioware Twisted that used that kind of feature so I need to get those ones as soon as I can. Either way Great Episode as always JRPGLife.
