      You should break your channel in two;
      The game challenge channel which is the Average Joe grinding for games from goodwill and yard sales, then flipping doubles and such at fair market value on eBay.
      The “gaming whale” or whatever you want to call it that does big deals, storage unit buys, full set collections, etc. The gaming whale can be the What Not guy.
      I’d watch both, but mixing these together isn’t working. Or if you are just the whale guy now that’s fine, just don’t pretend to be the Average Joe.
      Just my 2 cents. Thanks for all the content.

    Newsflash for people surprised by the constant shilling, grifting, whatever you want to call it by Retro Rick: The majority of "content creators" are not your friends. They view you as a way of making money. Their initial reasons for starting their channel change as they get bigger and the opportunities to monetise their audience become greater. He's not the first and won't be the last. It is what it is. Just unsubscribe and move on.

    Man, not sure how I feel with these types of videos. It's like Rick is flexing with his whatnot bank roll and flipping it around saying I'm doing this for the community to sell on whatnot. Just to have his weird fans spend more than what they are worth. Just my opinion and personally feel disconnected with the whole process.

    Anybody else miss the old Retro Rick? I feel like he sold out when he joined forces with Riff. Both of their editing styles were different and now it just seems way too forced. Sometimes a raw cut is better than trying to add so many sound effects and different cuts seems all a bit unnecessary.

Gotta watch someone selling toys that doesn't put a crazy number on games because thats not what he's focused on. Theres definitely good deals on that app just not from any youtubers.

    You’ve honestly lost the realistic feel to your average collector. That’s what WAS fun to watch. Whether a collector is rich or not, everyone can relate to thrifting or grinding on Facebook for a good deal or garage sale finds. Not this. Buying up entire collections, or half, from one person or at one location is fine if you want and “fun”, but not relatable to your average collector. Seems like you’re just buying games without even thinking because of whatnot and CZcams views.

    • @Ecwfan

      I actually was thinking at 1st he was doing this as his own personal challenge to build a game collection for WiiU. That this was about him wanting these for his collection as a challenge. Then he was like.."I'm doing this to put them all on Whatnot" Which hey I can understand its about money etc and if people are gonna pay these prices for these games.....all power to them. Its them who decide how much to do etc. But this channel I liked the $10 game deal which was fun to watch. I enjoyed the whole hunt for games for collection and that. Not into this aspect at all.

      @@videogamessource2473 While its his right to do what he sees fit with games. I do offer people who do speculation like this in watching...to look at the comic book industry. In the early 1990's the speculator boom almost killed that industry. There was people who came in believing they could make tons of money off Valiant , Image etc. And the big blow was books that shouldn't have went for prices had folks paying tons of money. It was a bubble that rose and burst. I'd hate to see it come to video games. Anyone can do what they want with games as they see fit. I don't have an issue with folks placing games on auction sites like Whatnot. I never plan to use it or bid on it. As I posted I miss the old $10 game challenge deal and the collection aspect this channel had. I'd hope we get back to that. I'm just a collector I suppose lol

    I haven't been watching this channel long but I can already see the change. The whole time I'm watching this, I'm thinking to myself "he'll flip all this, there's no intent to keep this." Then I saw the What Not ad. I'm gonna pass on this channel but I also don't really blame you for the hustle. Do your thing, Rick.

    I think Wii U will be a huge reseller console in a few years. There was 2.8m of them sold and some great games so I reckon they’ll be in demand and rare as time goes on.

    While the concept of this video is fresh and felt nice, I will say I’m really torn on where the channel has turned to. You went from buying stuff cheap to being your average collector. Yeah you made some deals on some of these but overall you spent $1200 lol. Not realistic to your average person who joined the channel based on your old principles. Plus the whatnot infomercial is getting tiresome.
