That proves that MJR isn't a scumbag reseller. Most would've bought everything and STILL tried to have gotten a better deal. Instead, he grabbed what he wanted at HER price, then told her what to do with the rest. #SaveTheGames
John Riggs: RIGG'd Games I think the best option for MJR to do there is to buy all of the boxed Nintendo stuff while he was there for the cheap price and bring them to Kelsey at Pink Gorilla and sell to her for what he paid. Lady doesn't have to drive to Seattle and Kelsey probably gets a better deal on the games.
I appreciate you saying that. I think some people don't know how Craigslist works where all the risk is on ME because it's not like I could test them and the seller sets the price. I basically saved all the games I could afford from the fire :)
MetalJesusRocks I understand where you're coming from. I would basically be buying them for the box on the Nintendo games. Those are much harder to find than the actual cartridge. Hopefully she does bring them into Kelsey :)
Reggie is seriously the best guest you have next to Kelsey. Reggie and you just gel together and you really should have him on as much as possible, these pick up videos are some of my favorite.
Same here.. and the thing that really gives me goosebumps is, what games *did* she have a chance to burn?? Just really hoping there wasn't any one-off prototypes in her hands.
Love these! I barely watch any video game related content anymore, but your passion and ability to find unique games that have gone down the rabbit hole is incredible! Not sure if you ever read these Jason, but you do an amazing job! Come visit us in Canada sometime if we have a gaming expo. Thanks for all your work brother (and Reggie). You guys do indeed "rock". :)
This is why I love Metal Jesus Rocks and Reggie game pick-ups. Great quality, content and that level of surprise of what's coming next. Great upload guys love it!
I am so ADDICTED to these pickup vids. I absolutely love being introduced to so many games I haven't heard of as well as seeing awesome games that I have heard of. I hope you don't stop doing these :)
Guys, honestly. One of the best vlogs yet. The pace is on point, good chemistry and great finds. What I like so much are the games MJR has because I can relate to them. And the picks Reggie has are great because they are in my personal 'obscure' line of games. Really cool to see such great games shown as a discovery for me. And to top it off it is great to see you guys compliment each other about these titles, like you bought each others top picks :D
Glad to hear you got The Binding of Issac! It is one of the best, if not the best, retro-inspired indie games out. I've been considering a switch for the sole purpose of having The Binding of Issac on the go. I think that's the only physical version too. Double plus good!
People used to cut the UPC codes out and mail them to the game companies to register their video game. If they registered enough, the customer might get a t-shirt or something. You would fill out a short survey along with sending the UPC code. This was a way for game companies to see what kind of people (gender, age group, etc.) were buying their games back in the day.
I can testify about some of the games that some people think are "worthless"....several years ago I was walking back from a grocery run when I saw a box beside a public trash receptacle Open the box up and I see a bunch of PS1 games. NOT sports titles but nearly all RPGs. So I grabbed the box and put it on my cart to take home, thinking that at worst, I could use the cases because I assumed they were empty. They weren't. When I got home and started going through the stuff I found that, not only were they all there but that the discs didn't have a scratch on them. This was Tales of Destiny, Lunar Silver Star Story Complete, Breath of Fire 4, Beyond the Beyond, Castlevania SotN, Final Fantasy Tactics, FF8 and a bunch more, and also a Final Fantasy II (4, SNES) just the cart. Around the time I found them (2012) I estimated there was about $1K worth of games there. Just laying beside a trash can.
I did keep what I wanted to keep, but the other stuff (where I had duplicates or just wasn't interested in them) I sold off to fund a new motherboard, graphics card, hard drive and memory. That way, someone else benefits from my luck and I got to upgrade my computer.
If one wants to play them, absolutely nothing. But generally, sports titles do not hold much value to a collector and thus, after a few years most can be had for a few dollars (most, not all, like in the case of the NES classic Tecmo Bowl). The games I found in this box were nearly all classic and/or rare PS1 JRPGs, most of which are highly sought-after from both a player and a collector's market.
I Find Myself Watching This For Hours On End!! So Motivating To See How Everyone On Your Channel Is Collecting New Old Games. Keep Doing What You Do Metal Jesus And Radical Reggie!!
Man I freakin' LOVE REGGIE! Such a genuine and awesome dude. These pickup videos are just so fantastic. I was smiling and even laughing along during this whole video. A lot of fun!
Mad respect to you guys for your love of games and collecting. My own collection isn't near yours but I've gotten a few gems over the years as well. Great taste in games as well. Xenosaga was a great series that unfortunately didn't finish like it should have.
One of my favorite pickup videos. I usually have them on in the background while working but I watched every second of this one. Also I really need a snow cone machine now for some reason.
I didn't know about the Hyperlight Drifter physical release until this video! Bought it as soon as you guys brought it up. This is why I love watching these game pickup vids!
I love your pickup vids, especially the ones with your awesome guests! I like the whole way that you shoot unscripted footage during them, but then put some polish on them in production. Gives them a great friendly feel, like I'm hanging out with you guys in the game room while you check out your latest scores.
Unfortunately, the human race is full of such folly. She chose not to look them up before Jason mentioned it to her. Not the smartest behavior, but it happens millions of times a day all over the world.
I have been looking forward very much to the next MJR pickups video so i am way way happy it was time for another one. Love these videos! Awesome stuff! Enjoy your games fellow gameheads and keep on going strong! :)
The amount of money Reggie could save without wasting money on games that are just junk... I collect games only the ones that I am going to actually play not just hoard everything that's cheap.
I like how your crew looks out for each other ,if Reggie sees a title he knows you gonna like he double buys it and for other members too that's love .
Love your videos man always a joy to watch!🤘🏻 I'm a collector and I love seeing what other cool games are out there to add to my library. I recently picked up a gen 1 PS3 for $125 and am so happy with it! I just beat an awesome hidden gem heavenly sword and I would never have known about it if it wasn't for your videos! I think I've seen most if not all and you're the real hidden gem of RU-vid! Keep up the good work my dude 🤘🏻
It's funny MJR, you guys drive an hour and it's a big deal I guess. Come to Texas. A one hour drive is a leisure. Love the channel. Thanks for all that you and friends do.
Reggie - Thanks for the mention of Retro Freak of being able to use a fan patch for translations, I'm sold now - Metal Jesus, thanks for having Radical Reggie as a regular !
Great video, I love the stories behind finding these games. It's actually inspired me to start hunting in the past few months. I scored a working FZ-10 3DO for $25, several games much cheaper than their value, and my current pride and joy a boxed NES Deluxe Set almost complete (missing the little gyro discs), fully working for $40.
Glad you've finally put more punch into your brofists with Reggie! About time too.

Duke Nukem 3D was my first multiplayer experience. Some how mind blowing. I enjoy a lot of these game pickups videos. Many games I have ever heard and also games which I have heard and more better played those also. Thank you about these.
