Metal Jesus Rocks is Annoyed - Brett Weiss Response Video
In a recent video on his channel, MJR and Kelsey Lewin talked about being angry... Well, at least annoyed by certain practices in retro gaming stores, including not pricing games, selling repros without marking them as such, and more. But they missed one thing that annoys the heck out of me. I've experienced it several times in video game stores and go over it in this video. What annoys you about retro gaming stores? Let me know in the comments!

Come on, Bretty, this was clickbait and you know it. MJR's video was nothing to do with this, and he only got hits on his video because he put Kelsey on the thumbnail. It's the only way he can get hits, these days, for someone on nearly a million (mostly dead) subs.

@MetalJesusRocks 23 дня назад

All good things to add to the conversation. I’ll probably do a second video and include a few of these. 👍

Stores with super loud music are annoying.

@mikevogler5455 22 дня назад

Agree with you 100%. Restaurants, too, especially.

@Larry 23 дня назад

Quite a few places purposely don't mark prices on games as they fluctuate so much, so they just pull out their phone and look on eBay for the price. Which is also annoying as they never check what the games actually sold for, any idiot can think their copy of Duck Hunt is worth a million dollars and stick it on eBay for that price. It'll never sell, but these sellers assume thats what they go for.

@BriansManCave 22 дня назад

I had someone do that with an Atari 2600 cart, no idea how they came up with such a large price (probably looked at ebay)

@thatotherretroguy 22 дня назад

I hate when games aren't priced. But one that really gets on my nerves was a gaming store in Gt. Yarmouth. The games were priced, but there was a sign saying "ask for prices". But when you ask, the guy checked ebay straight away.

@dennisaylen813 22 дня назад

I always hated Gamestop policy of charging full price for a game whose case was used for display.

@Spacemutiny 22 дня назад

I don’t think stores should have “mini museums” either. If you want to run a museum open a museum. It’s a store to buy things. It’s so annoying.

@cooladee 23 дня назад

The worst thing that happened to me was when I first started collecting, I was buying a game which was complete in box for what I though was a good price for it. I take it up to the counter, they take out the loose game and sell it to me for what it would cost complete because apparently the box and manual were for display only.

@BrettWeissRetroGamer 23 дня назад

Ugh!

@cooladee 23 дня назад

A few months ago I was looking at games for sale at a bookstore near me and there was a copy of Ogre Battle 64 which was behind a glass case separate from the other Nintendo 64 games. I could not see the price because there was no sticker on it which most of the other games had.

@TwistedIdentity 23 дня назад

Saw both MetalJesus's vid a little while ago and this one and I'm 100% with ya. The story of your experience though where they had to keep looking in the back? Give me a break. I'm no store owner but it's common sense, if you're looking to sell something, make sure your customers um. KNOW YOU HAVE IT. My #1 biggest pet peeve is definitely when nothing is priced and they have to look it up. This one situation I ran into in particular, at Capital Games in Gahanna OH (oops I said their name! tough shit) was especially ridiculous. Had the majority of their stuff unpriced, and every time I would ask how much they are asking, they did not even TRY to hide the fact that they were literally looking it up on Ebay right there in front of me and then marking up the price 30-50%. I'm surprised they're even in business.

@dionisis5206 22 дня назад

When I find a store that doesn't display prices I walk away.

@mdoerty13 22 дня назад

I have had happen twice. Once was a copy of Glib on the Southside of Pittsburgh. The other was an SMS Model 2 in Appleton, Wisconsin.

@mdoerty13 22 дня назад

I have had happen twice. Once was a copy of Glib on the Southside of Pittsburgh. The other was an SMS Model 2 in Appleton, Wisconsin. Of course, this does not count the chain similar to the one you described which operated like that - cases for display not for game sale.

@merman1974 20 дней назад

Totally agree with you on this - I've seen several recent videos here in the UK looking at stores, and they all had special/collector's items on display that were not labelled as NOT FOR SALE. It would frustrate and upset me too.

@TheLastLineLive 21 день назад

There was a local store that was like that for me, where they had some stuff behind the counter, they would just not sell it all, because it was meant to be decorative and what not. However, I did be friend the owner of that store and they ended up selling me a jvc X’eye that was among that stuff.

@BriansManCave 22 дня назад

Yeah the "That's not for sale" thing is quite annoying

@kumrogames 21 день назад

Great video and all very true! It's funny how so many retro game stores all do the same cringe things! I'll never forget about 10 years ago walking into a retro game store in Rochester NY, the dude would look up every game on ebay to get the pricing to quote from. He then says how all the games in one section were all lower cost games and he didnt both pricing from that shelve. he literally had a NES Bonks adventure (loose) in that section for $25. of course i bought it. just wild

@pbailed8007 22 дня назад

I don’t like when they have a row of stuff for sale sitting next to a row of stuff that’s not for sale, but it looks like it’s for sale!

@skeletorment 23 дня назад

I had a thing recently where I was in this retro game store and I picked up a game off the shelf that was priced at $20.When I got up to the counter, some dweeby cashier (couldn't have been older than 18-20) tried to pull a bait and switch and said "Sorry, my guy. That game is worth $47 according to our list."

@BrettWeissRetroGamer 23 дня назад

Yuck

@RayPruitt-ji9jx 22 дня назад

First point is because making a sign that says "Display only, not for sale" and keeping it behind a glass case falls under the category of 'work' and apparently the Beverly Hills Brat has inspired many retro gaming store owners.

@_mytopfive 22 дня назад

Not for sale = not getting my business

@TrueSeed-ft1jn 22 дня назад

Sad fact of humanity is: 90% of the time if an employee "checks in the back" for something you want - they did not check at all, they don't know how to check, they don't want to check, and they are lying. I would bet you - if the Gamestop had the game cases on display, those discs were in paper sleeves in some drawer in the store.

@TrueSeed-ft1jn 22 дня назад

I have also heard many stories of Gamestop employees (or managers/branches) using their employee discounts to buy all the "good games" and re-sell them for profit on ebay or FB marketplace. People claimed to do this for years. It's possible that you as a middle-aged adult, asking about some games they had, clued-in the employee that these games were desirable and that they could profit by doing as I described above.

@SuperEarther 22 дня назад

we all need to put things into perspective and yeah i love retro games but arguing about things that aren't for sale its not worth it. Lets just respect the shop owners wishes because at the end of the day its his business

The annoying music at my local retro gaming store is almost enough to not want to be inside.

@PongbyAtari 23 дня назад

Lack of used game stores is my biggest annoyance.

@hellokittybot7032 22 дня назад

Retro games are collectibles who's prices fluctuate every day. EVERY video game store should price games when brought to the register, PERIOD. It makes ZERO sense to keep outdated prices on games when the price fluctuates EVERY DAY. Maybe when Pink Gorilla has as many games on hand as my store does, she'll understand that you are LOSING MONEY by pricing games in advance. I don't have the time to recheck the prices on over 500,000 used games every week to keep up with the fluctuations. Think about that before complaining that a store looks up a price for you.

Jared I seen the video when your father yelled at you through the door when he said, "you're not a real man!" I agree with your father. Have you considered finding a job instead of leeching off mom and dad?

Metal Jesus is a such a poser. I know more about video games and heavy metal music than him. Dudes a cartoon character. Not a real gamer. Definitely not a real metal head. 😂
