I was actually just there yesterday (1/2/2019) with some friends. Dear god this place was incredible. All the history and sheer love for gaming that went into this is not something i can truly put into words. Anyone reading this that hasn't gone, it's well worth the trip
I live about an hour away, ive been there twice, once just after they opened, and once last summer with my kids, it is a wonderful experience that can be shared with future generations... great vid.
hi there. Epos how you doing today? Good? If you went to game museum which one may it be? My good friend so and so might visit one with me, paying for me as a very kind wise man. I've wondered somewhat how fun it would be, since I've learned about all sorts of game machines since 2001 when I thought to learn about the topic all of a sudden! Yeah, however........I still really think it would be worth it since the museums have such a volume of stuff and that would satisfy me I know. Know where I may find a game museum t shirt to buy? Haaaa. Thanks.
1) great chiptune music 2) always enjoy your thorough research 3) dang, the museum looks pretty sweet.. especially enjoy the recreated 80s bedroom they had on display.. ahhh the nostalgia! ^_^
It is a really cool place. Great exhibits and playable consoles and computers. With your admission, you also get some free tokens to use in the arcade. Also, in the mock up of the kids room... look under the mattress... there's a fake Playboy magazine under there... lol... great attention to detail.
Great piece of work Kelsey - Here in the UK, I’m lucky enough to have the National Videogame Arcade & Museum located in my hometown of Nottingham which is a fantastic place to visit.
wowsers, I thought I knew everything about videogame hardware and games but you mentioned a few things I've never even heard of like the Sega Pluto! I've never heard anyone speak of some of these things before in countless RU-vid videos I've watched over the years! Thank you kindly for the obscure knowledge
We visited arcades for our channel, but this is so amazing. Thanks for the great video tour. If we ever pass through this area of Texas, we will definitely stop in.
Bro I have been here and I absolutely love it!! Me and my grandma went and she actually remembered some of the very old consoles from the 70s!! She was even playing the big Pong machine with me and it beat her lmao!
Wow! You have Shovel Knight and Duck Hunt amiibos in the background next to each other. It's cool because those are the only two amiibos I own. It's a weird feeling when you see something familiar in an unfamiliar place, like "what are my amiibos doing there". :D Cool video. I'd love to visit the museum one day. :)
Great video! Didn't know you had your own channel. The Vita Buyer's Guide you did with Metal Jesus was what finally convinced me to buy my Vita which has since become one of my most prized possessions 😊
Hey this video was really cool. I live in Australia and don't see myself visiting Frisco, Texas any time soon so it was awesome to see everything and have it all explained.
I'm happy to see your website, Pink Gorilla (video game store), running again!!! Awhile back, the site was under construction for a while. I'm going to start doing some shopping at PG!!! I actually wanted that cute Fletchin figurine I saw a long time ago, now out of stock :/ LOL I'll find another Pokémon :D
Your videos are far & few in between, but always worth the wait! Seeing a video like this helps remind me that both Kelsey & Norman (Gaming Historian) still have A LOT of topics to cover! ..and who knows, maybe one day they'll do a collaboration. ^^
Nice work on this, and thanks for sharing! I’ve been meaning to get down to Frisco to check out this place, as I have some family that lives pretty close. Looks fascinating.
Very Cool. I am planning a trip to Dallas this year to hit up Six Flags. I didn’t know about this museum. This will definitely be on my list of places to visit while my family and I are there.
This is awesome! I live within driving distance of the Strong National Museum of Play in Rochester NY and I've always wanted to go check out their games section.
Cool place, loved the tour thanks Kels. Unfortunately for me, I live in London (UK) so nothing much here, except there's a well known retro computer museum about 100miles north in Leicester. Might go n visit it soon, if so, i'll do a little montage vid of it.
David B there's www.computerspielemuseum.de/1210_Home.htm in Germany. Us Europeans can't teleport between countries here in Europe either, but something fun to go to if you visit mainland ^^
In The Netherlands there's www.nationaalvideogamemuseum.nl (Zoetermeer), www.computermuseum.nl (Zwolle) and if you like pinball there's www.dutchpinballmuseum.com (Rotterdam).
great vid. Incase you're wondering, the strobing effect that sometimes comes up is cause you're cam was recording at certain times with an FPS that can see the strobing effects from the horrible fluorescent lights. You can either up the FPS the next time you record, or get a plugin like flicker free (works with FCP / Adobe etc) Keep up the awesome work!
Just left and it was truly amazing! Ive also been to digital press twice. Another great place for gaming! I'm from Washington state. I think I've fulfilled a gamers dream and adventure of a life time! Great review! I'm gonna sub now! :)
Got to visit this place finally. Pretty awesome museum to visit and see how gaming industry has evolved from the beginning until now plus they have free parking and only 12 dollars to get in!
