Wow, the price of Grind Stormer...
Cool, Transformers! Still looking great in their 80's package.
So glad you mentioned YARD BIRDS! I used to go there in the 80's and early 90's all the time! Loved those stores!
Neat looking place. I loved seeing that Gyrus machine. One of my all-time favorite arcade games. Thanks for the video, John.
That Gyruss machine is awesome. That's a very underrated game, and the game wasn't so popular that I'm guessing not many of those cabinets are still around.
@dr. no. Totally agree! Most of those Arcade Cabs were Dope but Gyruss was Lit! Yes it is a Fun Underrated Game! 🙄
Great trip1 Thanks! for showing this!
Nice expo convention time love all the Sega consoles and games always great to see sega cd and saturn CIB thanks immortal one
Wow John what a great find, I loved visiting a huge market in Tulsa Oklahoma where I found heaps of videos and games. Yard birds looks similar to the paddy's market and brickworks market here in Adelaide Australia that were popular in the 80s and 90s but died out eventually
Killer Klowns from outer space! I’m only about 20 mins from chehalis, haven’t been to that Yard Birds in several years. Need to go check it out soon
I liked watching the arcades
I love those deals on the Japanese GB games. Noticed the Carn Evil arcade cab. Looks like an awesome trip!
Awesome 👌 these videos are great, get to see a lot of cool stuff in a short amount of time. That's why I always loved Flea Markets and Swap Meets.
I didn't even know about this convention and it's less than an hour from here. Shows how much I pay attention to current events.
I liked the Big Trouble in Little China figures, couldn't make out the prices.
Totally would have gone with hometown James Hong. ☺️
I love all your videos. I prefer to watch without music in the background though. Keep up the good work!
Seeing a gyruss arcade was my favourite of the video
that's from the movie Killer Klowns from Outer Space
A little bit of everything here. my favorite thing to see out in the wild is the sega cd being available for folks to purchase at reasonable prices for today. Great vid John! 🤟🔥
I haven't been to Yard Birds in 30 years. Shocked it's still there.
Was just talking to my old high school buddies about going to something like this just this past weekend. Want to check out all the retro gaming stuff on display. Seems like it would be fun. Love seeing videos like this. Thanks.
My 1983 self was chomping at the bit at that Popeye arcade machine :)
splendid . ;))
Next time I visit friends in centralia I’ll have to hit up yard birds that place looks awesome
Cool trip, thanks for sharing!
Man I envy you guys in WA you've got all these retro videogames stores. Around here there used to be Game Craze and it was great they had everything from Atari 2600 to Saturn from Dreancast to Switch and PS4. There were several stores across the city but they all closed down like 3 or 4 years ago so sad. I used to collect action figures and vehicles and my collection was massive but in 1999 I lost my job and had to sell everything dirt cheap because toy collecting wasn't what it is today. I lost 1,000s! I was collecting videogames but wasn't all the way in until this happened. Thanks for showing your road adventures it's awesome and cool video John!👉😃👈
Great video , some awesome games there 👍👍
I had loads of the Hasbro Episode 1 figures all unopened almost all of them...sold them in hard times though, cool to see them again there...
Looks like a great time!
Very nice things at that convention and used game store. However I seriously enjoyed seeing that Popeye arcade game - I would have spent some time on that for sure!
Things like this remind me of being in college and visiting Funcoland. I could spend a lot of time at that store back then. I got some key games in my collection from there. It’s too bad they’re no longer around.
Also, the classic arcade games at the end of the video were cool to see. Arcades were always an exciting time back then. I didn’t get to go to one but about once a year while on vacation, but it was always a lot of fun. I think I enjoyed playing skeeball more than the arcade games, though!
I actually remember that when the star wars episode 01 came out and bombed me and my brother got like every figure and set along with the voice chip walkie talkie which read the chips that came with the accompanying toys. (They were about 50 cents to 2$ each)
Killer clowns from outer space. What a classic!
Some of the Genesis prices are crazy. I am glad I got a lot of the genesis games while the console was in production. I cannot imagine starting a collection today.
I actually bought the special boxed edition of Lunar Star (2) along with the accompanying strategy guide soon after it first released for about 40$ total and I still consider it to be one of my favorite and valuable games
(The Hardcover Book with a Poster and Stickers along with a Reversible cover and sewn in bookmarks made from red cloth)
i miss old flea markets ,don't have any in my area anymore.
Another great episode John love your work
With prices going up, I've taken the approach of going for hardware- i feel like even if/when game prices go down, the hardware will still retain its value, especially with the advances in flash carts/ODEs and upscaling technology.
Thanks!
You are welcome
AHH that's the baby clown from killer klowns from outer space who knocks the guys head off when he has his bike trashed
That clown is from Killer Klowns from Outer Space
Great videos!
Was that clown from Killer Klowns From Outer Space? I think I still have that ol DVD.
I still would love to own the Knight Rider KITT car and the time machine DeLorean
Geez, those prices! Ouch!
Hey John, are you going to be at the Southeast Game Exchange in South Carolina this July? I've never been but hoping to score a Twin Sharp.
Nope, but would love to go someday.
I hate living on the east coast. Never places like that around here. Just yard sales with people that think any video game items are worth their weight in gold.
Ever in Az look up a used game store call Fallout games.
There's a lot of european SNES games!!!
Christ,some expensive prices their, £59 dollars for R-Type on the Master System?
The mater system was not a great seller in the US hence the high price.
Gorf!!!
next time check out insert coin in centralia
I love you
man this is boring
Looks like a fun time! 🤡 creepy clown lol 🤡
