Good for you for letting go some of your personal collection. You will discover new treasures that mean more to you! Recently found this channel and I’m enjoying following your journey!
Always a great time with Retro when he drops the content. Store keeps getting better and better. I appreciate you showing the sale. Retro if I lived in your area I would be always in the store. So 🔥🔥🔥
Hey Rick! Love the videos. I noticed on your main channel your upload schedule hasn't been the same. I imagine that is due to the game store and all that is involved with that. I am enjoying seeing the behind the scenes of the store. I wish I had a game store like yours nearby! Question for you though: do you still plan to film anything in your home game room with your collection? I miss seeing your awesome displays and toys! I know you mentioned possibly doing something at the store as a backdrop, but was just curious. Anywho, take care duder!
Been following your YT content for a couple of years now and I really love your hustle man. I'll always give ya a Like and comment to help boost ya as much as possible. Rooting for ya! Have you ever made a video on your decision process to leave your (presumably) normal day job to open the game store and make content full time?
Wow just wow, your wife dont only supports your craziness, your video game hobby, collecting, buying a video game store, but you can get her to dress like a Mario and wave to cars... dude you hit the jackpot with a wife like that. You could literally take on the whatever the world throws at you with that kind of support.
if you plan on selling retro games, i highly suggest investing in the plastic sleeves to display them. hard plastic for heavy hitters, regular wrap plastic for others. my retro store does this and its phenomenal. reason being and its a major pet peeve of mine, is stickers on original artwork. if you have them in plastic, as a consumer it helps me protect my investment from dust and debris, and i can still have the paid for price on it without compromising the original artwork.
I'm not trying to be that guy, Rick, but your wife is a green mushroom, which would give her an additional life. I believe you were referring to the red mushroom, which would make her bigger.
Dude! The free donuts were a great touch. I remember when I was a kid and K-Mart opened "early" at 7 am on Black Friday ... they always had a table near the entrance with free coffee and donuts. Retro Rick bringing back the good ole days!
Here's an idea, why not have employees fav games with a little write up as to why on display. (You could even use a clear disk case, to put the review in)
Bro, you are the truth. I love your channels. I’ve been watching every single one of them one day I know I’m gonna meet you I about to start a little store in my apartment the name is going to be #games go retro forshow
Man...I need a run-down of your Switch collection and the inventory in the store. I usually prefer the obscure stuff, and you definitely have that. I'm guessing that you don't have a Discord?
I'm planning a trip to the states next year and I would like to visit your store, but I'm actually having trouble finding the adress. Could a gentle soul be kind and help me locate it? Thanks.
i have a Nintendo switch lite. im a truck driver that hauls milk locally, we have to wait to unload at the plant and load at the farms. while other guys are staring at their phones my phone is off and im playing mario, kirby, crysis (old school), or any of the other great games i have. my wife has the switch that she can hook up to the TV. it's not the OLED version. she plays zelda ALLOT. for this christmas i bought my kids both a nintendo switch lite each. i think the switch is such a great product and concept, it is probably one of the best consoles on the market. nintendo really hit it home when they decided to have their handheld gameboy-like device use the same games as their TV hookup model. the fact the TV hookup model is also a handheld is also another huge win. we just love our switches.
Please tell me Mrs. Retro is not in that Mario suite... Edit: and it is hahaha You are a Lucky man, Rick! Because No ones wife is gonna do that for their husband! You better do something special for that girl!
Seems like your black Friday was dead. When your store closes please don't say hey guys just been a great experience I did my dream come true of having a video game store but I'm going to move on to other things thank you for your support bye.
Oomph, had to pull from your own personal inventory? That's odd, why not order more to fill from store account? I'm confused, but I know business to business and even where you're at personally in life are always different and unique. That store may come and go, but what I own will not lol
