alright
ok
sadly gamestop is leaving Ireland I can't buy my games anymore 😔
I went to the same park you did in Super Mario 74.
When i can tell what city you where in, in Iowa... XD
Out of all the GameStops in PA you literally went to my local one lmao
Hey Schaffrillas!
IKR. XD
He went to my local one too
The fact that he went to a gamestop in Oklahoma that I pass by pretty commonly, and there wasn't a Sonic and the Secret Rings poster anymore blew my mind.
I ligit just watched you before this video
The fact you spent about $2500 and only saved 50 is the most gamestop thing I've ever heard
It so is. It's not even enough for a new game.
A dollar per state.
It really is. I have like 70K points over almost a decade & that's apparently only like 60 dollars of discounts.
And if he traded in all of the games he got on his journey, he would be lucky to get 2 dollars.
@@R3D_Lantern at least you still have your points. Over a decade's worth for me and they threw it all away because I wasn't subscribed for a while

South Dakota highways: Are you challenging me?
So are we just gonna ignore John completely disappearing for the rest of the video after day 12 lmfaooo
Yes
Fun fact: there are only two escalators in the entire state of Wyoming, making it the only state to have more GameStops than escalators.
Wyoming is such a funny state
@@jeepmega629 even the name is goofy, wyoming
wyoming, more like WHYDIDYOUNAMEITTHISoming
@@yololthepikminenjoyer I wyome
man i would hate that state (I love escalators)
Hey dude I was the TSA guy who recognized you. It was actually crazy surreal to see one of my favorite CZcamsrs come through. Hope carls doing well, and I love the video!
That’s awesome 🎉
🧢🧢🧢
bro is cappin
bro dont lie you post clash royale vids
Okay if you're fr... how many muslims have you done a cavity search on?
I would love to do this with independent game shops. They always have a cool promotional material to give away.
Seems like a way better idea
Hold up. Ain't you Nathaniel B?
As an Ohioan myself, it was quite cool to see him go to the Steelyard Commons GameStop, one that I’ve been to a few times.
Hey I’m from Ohio too
Imposter >:( I’m the real yoshi!!
Im also from Ohio
he shoulda gone to one of the ones in cincinnati
When he was in Ohio i noticed the highway thing that they were on.
This is so wild haha awesome to finally see this uploaded
yeah me to
20:00
Bro the music adds so much to this comment
12:29 I believe the holes are for straight line winds. If you're near Lake Erie, it isn't uncommon to have some strong winds coming off the water.
*e n t e r f a c t*
If you ever do something like this again, it would be cool to see 50 states worth of mom & pop game stores. You’d see a lot more variety for sure.
Yeah.. That would be neat..
gamespot should of sponsored him.. for all that effort
I would watch the heck out of that
Literally had this same idea 😂
Never heard of it
My deepest condolences for Carl and his ear, really unfortunate that he had to go through that during the trip
Press F to pay respect to him
@@NueIsBestWaifuF
You had the perfect opportunity to call the Van the Bandywagon
23:13 "Okay, so 2 Horrible things happened. 1. There is a lot of snow outside. And 2. I shaved." ok
I didn't know horrible was a noun
@@zaneheaston8254 thanks for addressing that. it's not a noun, but i was probably really tired when i typed that just like i am rn.
I was looking for this comment. Funniest bit in the video! 😂🧔🏼♂️🪒👱🏻♂️
The fact he felt worse playing every Mario game in a week than driving and flying through the entire country over the course of a month scares me
Sometimes the travel is good for us gamers who stay inside all the time
To be fair, he did go to Hawaii at the start of it which likely helped a lot.
9:05
Going on an adventure like this with friends does sound amazing
Probably because traveling the entire country is a lot more free feeling than being in your house for a week on a screen
So awesome to see this done! Absolutely handsome mad boys
Yeah Connor!
Ohhh my god is that Conner the waffle from fortnight
hey Conner
One of my favorite videos from you. Keep up the good work bandy!
Cool to see you made it to my local Best Buy in Colma CA! There used to be a GameStop in the shopping center next to CZcams but sadly it closed.
Nathaniel and the gang being a big boss team for doing this exploit. Praise for Carl for feeling better soon.
i love these manchildren so much lmao
Sus bus
Hey excuse me whats the song at 3:23
As a Marylander, they rarely sell DS and Wii games like they used to
Visiting 48 states in 3 weeks might sound insane to a normal person, but this is Nathaniel Bandy. He's done challenge videos that have pushed him to that point since 2019
Don't forget alaska and hawaii
@@apexhunter935 Remember, this was after Carl and NB visited Hawaii and Alaska
as a missourian, it is interesting seeing him go to the South Belt gamestop, i have been there a few times, any other people who live in/near st joseph?
11:28 the fact that my local game stop is literally not even 0.5 miles away from a Lowe’s and a Home Depot is crazy 💀💀
I'm 90% sure the south dakota store used to be an electronics boutique. Not an EB games, but the original color scheme for electronics boutique before it got rebranded/bought out. My local mall had one when I was growing up and I recognize those purple walls anywhere.
This is like Eddy Burback and Ted Nivison going to all the Rainforest Cafes. Appreciate the dedication man!
Precisely what i was thinking, especially when it showed the Rainforest Cafe inside Mall of America.
I literally thought this video was inspired by that
@@boogiedaddy3434 ikr
That’s what it reminded me of 😂 another level of unhinged and irrational decisions
Immediately thought of that video when I saw the thumbnail lol
Nathaniel is single-handedly keeping Gamestop alive.
He is now under murder threat from Rich of ReviewTechUSA
@@somebodyoncerolledme7211what?
@@LoginJ It was a joke given than Rich is constantly predicting Gamestop's demise and hates anything that keeps them going
include canada pls
Unlikely. He bought cards, which GameStop receives very little profit on if any due to volume and time it takes to sell them. Most of their profit comes from pre owned.
Fun Fact: The Arizona GameStop you went to is the one in Flagstaff and you know what CZcamsr is there. You guessed it PlainRock124
I found this video inspiring. I'm always sitting at home on the weekends and can hardly say I have any real friends atm.. I would like to go on a similar adventure some day.. Respect man.
The dedication that went into this project is astounding. 😂 Well done, guys!!
Verified person and only a bot, cool.
lol
This is pure dedication 💪
Fun fact: The Gamestop you visited in Maine was my old store. I was there for six years and was originally hired as part of the grand opening crew. I had to transfer to a New Hampshire store about eight months ago (funny enough, I'm in the next town over from the NH store you visited!) and I've missed the old place a lot. Firstly, thanks for affording me a chance to see the place again. Glad to see that the new manager is keeping it in good shape. Secondly, I appreciate the kind words about it. There's a lot of me in that store and even though I don't run it anymore, I still take pride in its accomplishments.
Which store in NH was he in?? I live in NH and been trying to figure it out for hours now 😂😂
@@xMrTreeMysterx That was Rochester.
What store in Maine was it?
@@RoachForce141 Biddeford.
@@bsmoove57453 Thank you! The map they used in the video made it seem like they went all the way up to Houlton, but I couldn't recall there being a GameStop in that area.
Watching NB and his friends go insane is just oddly feel-good
30:31
That's definitely an older Holiday Inn room 🤣
Knowing that he went to my local mall's Gamestop (the Hawaii one) is particularly surreal, especially since I hang out there quite often. It's crazy to see him talk about the fact that there is kinda a Toys R Us in Macy's like it's foreign.
i loved the Asian massage parlor there in that mall, they go the extra island
Eh, it's not like you'd live anywhere other than Honolulu, And it's not like Nathaniel would go anywhere in Hawaii other than Honolulu!
Hawaii gotta represent!!!
@@jennifermorrey7378if I knew he was there, I would’ve love to meet him in person and tell him how much I love his ranking videos.
Yoo
knowing that nathan was in the same state as me, even for just a few hours is truly terrifying.
bro fr
for me he was 10 mins away LOL
He was 2.5 hours away from me in minnesota💀
He literally went to my local store 💀
I SAW HIM WALK INTO THE MICHIGAN GAMESTOP
I grew up in Alaska and was so happy to see the mall I frequented countless times. It's nice knowing that skating rink is still there.
Outstanding! What a thoroughly entertaining video. Thank you.

The game stops that look different on the outside have to meet whatever local codes they have for the area. I especially like seeing gas stations get forced to comply, makes for a much more unique neighborhood.

Dropped this 👑
Ur doing god's work blud 🙏🏻
Dude! He drove through the Canyon from Thermopolis to Riverton! Man, I wish I could've meet him, but awesome video!
GOD DAMN IT I THOUGHT I DID THIS FIRST
Only Nathaniel and the gang would spend a whole month going to 50 different gamestops
I would do that to but to many travels for me 😊
Mr beast never do that...... Yet
Out of anywhere in Vermont you just so happened to go to my hometown one! I rarely see CZcamsrs showing off our gorgeous state so I appreciate the effort you took to drive there. And yes, usually you end up going out of the state to get back in, just apparently is always faster.
Out of anywhere in missouri he went to one of my hometown ones (there is another gamestop on the other side of my hometown)
Ahh so cool man! Crazy that you stopped at the Beloit GameStop in Wisconsin. I worked there back in 2015 - 2017 while in college. Amazing time with great people.
I'm someone from Alaska and I was excited that you went to the Diamond Center Mall. My only regret was that I could've gotten to meet you there. But, I'm just glad you got to see Alaska's beautiful mountains
Glad to hear Carl is feeling better.
Also, props for sticking through this GameStop adventure all the way through. It was quite the endeavor to see your long drive.
Thank you for your hustle. You are an amazing channel.
I'm from Alaska and I live right next to the Diamond Mall! This is so awesome to see! Thanks for actually coming up here!
Nathaniel Bandy is slowly becoming the Mr Beast of Nintendo
HOLY BALLS NO WAY ONE OF MY FAVORITE CZcamsRS WAS AT MY IRRELEVANT NEBRASKA TOWN. YOU JUST MADE MY GAME STOP 1000x MORE SPECIAL. THANK YOU SO MUCH NATHANIEL🙏
What town in Nebraska
@@lilyyoung1002 columbus
HOLY BALLS HE WAS AT MY LOCAL GAMESTOP IN MISSOURI (the one in st joseph, at least that town has some relevancy)
30:17 I’m shocked as to how they managed to go to a GameStop that is mere minutes from where I live
I was thinking to myself
“Imagine he goes to that one in the mall” and then you mentioned the ice skating rink and I had to re-watch that clip like 5 times before realizing it’s the mall
Honestly he’s such a good friend for explaining to us exactly what was wrong with his friends ear
Nathaniel Bandy deserves an Oscar Award for the biggest GameStop fan.
Edit: Wow 100 likes already
He even bought a shirt
maybe he does👍
fr
Did you hear about Ted Nevison and Eddy Burback who went to every rainforest cafe in the US? Cuz by this logic they also deserve a best fan award.
@@Sushiwolves dang thats crazy
26:07 that's plainrock's gamestop in flagstaff. I can tell because it shows where he went for a few releases
Ngl, this has become one of my favorite videos from Nathaniel
19:20 Desert Bus vibes
Desert bus is an awesome game, you should make a video of playing it. I know you did it In Mario Kart Wii, but the original game takes a lot longer to go through im pretty sure.
Hi Troy!
Hi
Wow, TWD98 replied!
Yo
How can you not love this guy? He’ll do anything and succeed at it. You’re the best NB 😁❤️
3ds pfp. nice
@@pixeman agreed
this needs way more views👌🏽Awsome video!
That opening screen... the... splotchy, smudgy, look had me freaking out for a minute thinking my monitor was cover in trash. 0:16
Now Bathaniel needs to do an “EB Games” in every Canadian province.
That would be BRUTAL
It has been renamed to GameStop in Canada
EB games is Australian, not Canadian.
@@Wakapat_YT was also Canadian, but recently rebranded to GameStop.
@@Mrchair734 he can come to the land down unda then
These guys went to every state to one GameStop per state. That’s some hard work. They deserve respect.
Especially for Carl man, Carl really took a big Al during this trip, manga minor tear in his eardrum, which there an allow him to fly until is your got better, talk about that look from there
Agreed!
@@Neasyorc sir doesn’t really matter the date. This isn’t an original idea
This is still one of my favorite videos on CZcams. Mixing travel and gaming. Genius
20:37 right as i seen the parking lot, i immediately recognized that one.
Is this springfield?
As someone who works at GameStop as one of the employees there, where I live very close by at, I’m surprised that you traveled all over the country, going to every GameStop you visited! That’s mad talent, my guy! You could’ve visited and went to the one that I work at in Hixson, Chattanooga Tennessee. I’m neither disappointed nor am I surprised that you didn’t go to that one, but maybe you could visit us one day! 🤣
Y’all came to my store! Thank you for being respectful and not recording staff! You went in the wrong entrance! 😅 (Iowa) Hope you guys had a positive experience!
Fellow Iowan!! Hello!!
Mason City Ia?
Sorry I'm late. Is this the Iowa Meet-Up section?
@@Leamax33 I suppose so, by pure accident I'm finding my people
Anyone else in my area? I'm about 2 hours west of des moines
I’m am overjoyed you went to my GameStop location in Billings Montana, just the thought of one of my favorite CZcamsrs visiting my location can make me die happy
17:45 I've actually been to that plaza a good couple times, Legends Outlets, and it's basically just a mall outdoors. Still a really swank place.
Having grown up in Eastern North Dakota, it's funny to hear how people explain driving through the Great Plains for the first time. There's something about the several hours of straight highway with no stops until you hit the next city because it's just farmland and small towns with one gas station and a bar as the only places to go to. The fact you can always see several miles ahead of you at all times unhindered is magical. Those drives will either make you go crazy or you'll genuinely enjoy every step of the way despite looking at basically nothing.
As a North Dakotan as well, this is accurate.
I remember going to The Badlands in SD on a family trip. My parents thought the city (Rapid City or Sioux Falls?) was pretty close (pre-GPS when people used actual atlases and road signs) because they could actually see the lights. They were wrong.
Being that far from civilization is oppressive to me, and I live in North Florida where the highways are surrounded by a billion pine trees on either side. I'm pretty sure I went to the Gamestop in FL where the uploader went.
As a New Jersan/ New Yorker that sounds like the latter
i’d love to live in eastern nd, i live in central florida and while the weather is nice… there’s just TOO much going on
I would enjoy that, but only as a once in a lifetime experience, with 100 hours of quality music on my stereo and no worries about a destination, just cruising along where the road goes.
If I had to drive in that area every week for work, I would hate it within a month
Do I stand alone in believing Nathaniel Bandy should be included in the Guinness Book of World Records for visiting every GameStop within the United States?
yes you do because he didn't he just went to one in each state, not every one of them
@@clocknerd9930 True
Actually, to me it seemed as though he only went to one, each state?
Even the abandoned one in Tennessee!
This video is by far one of my new favorites of yoursss
We want an unlisted playlist of all the footage unedited, that would be sick
I don’t go to GameStop often anymore as I did, but it sure sounds insane that our man Bandy visited the same store (in different states) 50 times. Praise to Carl for feeling better after his ear situation.
I hope I have the same level of friendship that Carl and Nathaniel have with my own friend in the future. It was a great video with so much dedication put into it.
9:29 Sweet. I wish I knew where that "massive mall" was but it looks pretty cool
oh man the spyro 1 dark hallow music at 11:50 got me feeling so nostalgic
27:45 wait a goddamn minute THATS MY HOME STORE. I WORK AT THAT ONE. AGHHHHHH
Noice
“Add the stroke!”
-Nathaniel Bandy, 31:29
Tru he did say that
I’m a West Virginia native in the Jackson county area, been watching your channel for a few months and never new you’re from around here so cool 😊
Id love to see a video like this for retro game stores, see what weird stuff you can find
This really shows that Bathaniel is friends with boulders by putting party hats on the boulders
And living with them too….
I love that you went to the Steelyard GameStop in Cleveland, I went there one time and it was awful, but gotta rep Cleveland!
That feeling of being unsure if the store you're trying to go to is abandoned or not is just how it feels to be in Iowa.
21:26 there goes the Mr. Beast collab
Lol
As an Ohioan, the motorcycles you saw are not out of the ordinary. This is legitimately an average day in Ohio.
Yup
Only in Ohio
@@Sam-TheFullBull true
Ohio memes aren't funny anymore
@@ToledoRailfan Ohio memes are still hilarious. It being the worst state in the US makes it so
You just earned a new subscriber! Also i want that choose one game bundle card
It's crazy knowing you went to the GameStop I used to be the manager of, right next to the Kay Jeweler's I bought my fiance's ring at.
I spent so many days going in and out of that store, to the point where it was basically my life. This video is a cool reminder of what I used to do.
Not to mention I was still the manager of the store at the time you filmed the video, since that banner hanging from the ceiling was up before I put up the Diablo 4 banner.
There had to be at least one Gamestop worker who was like: "hold up, ain't you Nathaniel B?"
Ohio
I’m sorry for Carl not only do I hope he feels better but that he’s completely healed and not have any issues
I live in MA and even though the segment was short I SWEAR I immediately recognized the GameStop you went to there.
Wow this was very fun to watch. I wanna road trip and do something like this now 😂
The dedication for this video is awesome and I’m glad you guys did it I hope you guys enjoyed it and I can’t wait to see what’s next. Keep up the amazing work
24:49 “college campus for adults” isn’t college already for adults?!
Exactly 😂
College is basically a trailer for adult life
27:42 “Double cheeked up on a Tuesday afternoon “
I am impressed you went to the Gamestop at the Flagstaff mall. I give ya props for that
13:25 holes in the stop sign
Only in Ohio
@@prodSpazeY Those are vent holes that allow wind to pass through the sign. Those prevent the sign from being knocked over from the wind. Look it up its done on purpose.
That’s Ohio for you
Great video! Kudos to everyone involved for sticking out the journey. I know this was exhausting 😭
I think this is genuinely my favorite video I've ever seen
awesome video, quite a long and insane journey to get to every GameStop.
