- Today was Day 1 of owning a video game store and it was incredible! We had some killer trade ins and sales were great. Cheers to the future and the game store!
#VideoGames #Games #RetroGaming
I would LOVE a vlog series of all the coolest stuff that gets traded in at the store!
You got it!
Also some of the weirdest things people try to trade in would be cool to see too! 🤓
Yeah that would be need to have a series just like Pawn Stars but with all game related stuff 👏🏼
Where is this store?
@@DutchGameHunter Double Jump Video Games On CZcams Does Exactly That
Congrats Rick! You need to continue doing this. Very fun to watch. Especially customers doing trades or buying stuff.
That’s the plan! Thanks for watching!
@@retroricksgamepoint Does the store has a webpage withe the inventory and do you ship to Spain?
Cheers mate!
The absolute best part of this video is just seeing how genuinely happy and excited you are the whole time. This is the dream for so many of us enjoy every moment and wishing you every success with it. Cannot wait to follow along on the journey
Please OH PLEASE KEEP IT RAW & UNEDITED. THE PURENESS IS HARD TO FIND THESE DAYS.
Congratulations, so well deserving, for one such as yourself. Look forward to many more Vlogs.
Thank you to all involved that make this possible.
Yes!!! Vlog of the store!!! Would love to see trade ins and sales of unique items.
This was a blast to watch I’m so excited! Would love daily vlogs from the game store!
Can’t wait to start making them!
Opening a retail place in 2022 is nightmare worthy. So much competition online, better prices mainly, free shipping and no need to exit your home.
Best of luck still an amazing store, worked for a big branch like this in Canada and they all closed down due to huge losses.
Congrats on your first day brother! The beginning of an awesome journey and I'm here for it.
Thank you my friend!
Congrats. The wife and I have had a video game store for over 7 years now in Florida. It's been a blast and has been a life long goal of mine to own one.
The fact that you own a store which brings so much joy to you and others is awesome man, livin the dream
Congrats on the new store!!!
It would be super nice if you did some kind a "the day in a life of a game store owner" type series.Showing you buys, sell and trade in the store.
I think I was fated to find this video (and channel). I've never seen it before, but just the other day I was searching Primal Rage because I was born in '86 and have been having all the flashes of nostalgia that all people are having - especially after COVID lockdown life.
Anyway, I'm over in Texas but I feel like I *have* to see the store!!! Maybe a video can happen idk but I have to go visit!
Thanks for showing us this look inside for Day 1! Congrats!!!
I love this format!!! Its like pawnshop but only from retro games, and at the same time be something original!
Wee need more of this
Good to see you Rick hopefully I will see you again!!
Woah! You turned your 10 dollar collection into a retail store!! Always fun to drop in on you Rick, you never know what you're gonna get.
I’m a welder and work my a** off everyday this is my true passion! Seeing your vids is really making me want to follow my dreams! Thanks brother 🤘🏼
good luck Rick. If I ever end up in your parts expect a Canadian gamer to be walking in looking for some awesome stuff😁😁😁😁
The main channel is already a joy to watch, but man, this is a huge bonus! Looking forward to more!
Congrats, bro! What an awesome journey you’ve begun!
Thank you man, now you have to come visit!!!
Very enjoyable video, can't wait to see all the employees and the awesome people that come in!
Haha, excellent!! This was really fun to watch, I'm really excited for you buddy!
Love this!!! Definitely do more game store vlogs. Can't wait to see more.
You got it!
The smile on your face at the end of the video is priceless. Dreams come true with hardwork....and sometimes dream just fall into your lap🤣✌✌🤘
I never comment on CZcams videos but I had to comment. I’d totally watch videos with you interacting with customers doing trades and hearing stories behind some of the items they bring in. Like Pawn stars but with video games!
Congrats on the store opening man!!! This is truly wonderful. Can't wait to see more daily vlogs
Dude thats awesome! I have been to this store, it is the best in that area. Cant believe you got this store. Didn't realize you were in this area.
Freaking love this format! I Would watch you do trades all day!!!
Heck ya! Thanks for tuning in Frank!
Do you have $2000 snatcher Sega CD 😆
Congrats Rick!!
Look forward to your future videos.
Best of luck and prosperity to you and your family.
From my Canadian heart Cheers.🇨🇦
Congrats!!! Wow, can't believe it! Frame that 20! My family has a family business for over 30 years and still going. A lot of grind and dedication, I wish you the best!
The best 2 days of owning a video game store: the day you buy it and the day you sell it. Congrats!!
love the video, really enjoy the idea of vloging interesting sales, and random day to day shenanigans
So happy that you are doing this kind of video. Hopefully you make a lot more , love watching the working of inside the stores.
happy that you seem so happy man. this is the first time i've been to your channel and you've got the kind of energy that makes others want to succeed just by being around you! i'd tell you to never stop but i don't think that's going to happen any time soon anyway
I’m actually pretty excited for you and the videos to come from this life changing experience. Love seeing the new prospective of game store owner! Be Excellent!
This is Awesome. I follow a guy on youtube who's channel is basically his dealing day to day he runs a pawn shop in the states. Its always great content to watch the deals come in.
I hope to visit some day, I miss checking out retro game stores.
Please keep this going I would love to see the journey you guys go on!
Awesome vLog! Hope to see you do more. Congratulations on Day 1 of your New store! Best wishes to you and your family on this endeavor. 🎉👏😊
This was fun watching!!! Seeing a videogame store from the owners perspective. Please keep doing more vlogs and share everything (troubleshooting, problems and customer trades etc.)!
Hi Rick. Watching from the UK here. Loving your video uploads and collections of really cool stuff. Congratulations on the opening of your fantastic and cool video store. It is so amazing. I wish you the very best in this new venture and look forward to more great videos. All the best Jerome.
Congratulations Rick! Please don't stop these daily vlogs, I'm all here for it! I'm so excited to see more of your future videos.
Hey, that's my sale at 3:56! 😂 Small world. Pretty sure I've got that one in a video
I'm rooting for you! Opening a new business can be both exciting and frightening.
I used to go to a Video Game store called Super1Up Games (can't now, moved to the other end of the province). We would do fighting game weeklies there, and it made a strong sense of camaraderie and community.
If you have space and charge a venue fee for other types of community events. I think it can bring eyes to your store.
Your smile is infectious. Congratulations on your store.
Dude you've grown so much since I first started watching your channel, congrats on your store!! 👏
Gratz on getting the store! I look forward to the journey and seeing how you change and do everything
Congratulations and can't wait to see more Vlogs
Congratulations brother! I can see the excitement and nervousness in your eyes and speaking cadence. Retail stores have always fascinated me with how they turn a profit: Building, utilities, product, employees, etc. I'd enjoy a series of an owners POV on how you tackle the day to day and month to month finances. Congratulations again!
This is great! I hope there are more of these types of videos. Its nice to see you on the other side of the trade too!
Hi, we have lift off, what a great store 👍👍👍🥳🥳🥳👌👌👌
It's very clear that your previous success and focus is a sure outcome for this endeavor as well. Re-imagine little baby Retro and his first focus.
Congratulations! Kee those videos coming! Was throughly entertained. Happy for you! Best of luck! 🍻🤘👌✌️👍
Congratulations. This is very awesome and it was neat to see the first sale and what your trades and day looked like. Wishing you all the success and more.
You look so happy!
Hope your new venture works out for you, Rick
The store already looks fabulous! Can't wait to see more content!
Congratulations! You can see the happiness in his face and the excitement at the end of the video. Looking forward to the adventure!
Looking forward to more of these vids! I wish you the best of luck!
Oh man, definitely excited for you guys! Hoping to see some more videos like these, keep up the work and hope the business is doing good🙂
