This series is basically meant for sadistic gamers who want to see a man suffer from crappy GameStop orders. I love it
We just want to feel relatable
Matty really got the “most gambler’s quit before hitting it big” mindset lol
One more haul then im out lol
@@ThePhantomKingX But you're on a hot streak already cant quit now!
@@MJamesRave you're right can't quit while I'm up!
@Sotelo74 who's Matty?
Fun fact (from a previous GS Employee): The POS system allows you to specify what games you want, and they allow search results for consoles as old as the NES. If you take the time, you can find stores that have copies of older games you're looking for and have them sent to your store. I got a complete copy of Silent Hill 2 for I think $60-70, on top of a bunch of rare PS1 games that were super cheap and in great condition.
They never send to other stores...
Explain how to do this please, I can’t find an option for this online
@@victorvargas9330
The should unless they are lazy. It's literally their job to AND it's "free" for them to do (with the UPS account they have). All they need to do is get the game, package it, and wait for the driver to show for daily deliveries/pickups. And I know this as a former GS manager.
@@Heazie Maybe. Though granted, I called several stores out of state because a collector's edition was out stock within 100 miles of my local store...
@@victorvargas9330
I assumed you had the request come from a store itself. I can understand not doing it for a random caller. If you go to the store close to you and have them call in the request I can't imagine they'd make an excuse not to send it. Having a random game show up from a store isn't ideal for anyone.
You need to take the cover art out before you wet it. This way you don't damage the cover art. Also an antibacterial wipe works better for cleaning. Less wet and really gets the grime off.
I take the cover art out and use Goo Gone on stickers. Then wipe with a paper towel with some rubbing alcohol on it (his paper towel is FAR too wet) to get rid of any grime, and the Goo Gone smell. Goo Gone works wonders on pesky stickers, but the citrus scent is awful.
I think he missed the point that they're shitty fucking old games dude no one gives a fuck about the resident evil 6 cover art like it's a great game don't get me wrong it's not a collector's item
“You can just cut that part out” 😂😂😂
Single-handedly keeping them afloat. God bless you.
These GameStop videos are always a blast Matty (we have GAME over here in the UK, i've never had anything like cases being missing or broken from them) It's honestly really funny to watch :'D Love the channel, keep it up dude :)
The man juice portions are hilarious. The $450 experience in this economy.
Who’s just jerkin it on these games Lmao 🤣
"This feels light and disappointing". I know I am up for a treat with those words 😂
Hearing they throw out boxes to save space is just pain
As someone that works at GameStop, most DS/3DS games people bring in for trade don't have cases, and when they do, my boss doesn't want to keep them anymore so he throws them out (but I take them when I can to save them from impending doom)
So that's probably why the majority of the 3DS games you bought were just in those plastic holders, I'm sure my boss isn't the only one that gets rid of the cases
I just got to the part where you mention they throw them out to save space which is essentially right lol
At least with getting the handful of cases from work, I've been using it as an excuse to grow my DS/3DS collections. Though it has made me realize for a good chunk of them, cart only isn't really cheaper than CIB lmao
I was so tempted to order like 4 games from them a few months ago but the fear of getting a busted ass nasty case was too much for me. Even though the cost was not much, i didnt wanna risk it
I've always just returned stuff that doesn't come complete with no questions asked
Hand wipes
@@grizzlypug8520 hilariously they give me full refund, so when it's 4 games for 40 deal they refunded me the full $20 for the one game that was some nasty ass case
I could give a shit. When done right, Gamestop is a steal. Who cares if it doesn’t have a case. All that really matters is that the game plays… But maybe you people don’t play these games. That could be the case.
@@WeWaltRun Yeah they usually have good deals. At least when I used to buy retro games from them. I use to get genesis games complete for loose price often
Even buying “new” games from Gamestop is a risk sometimes.
Facts I bought a "new" game from them once and it didn't even have plastic wrapped on it like wtf
In my country, there are stores that sell new games which are not sealed. Mostly because they don't have fake display cases so they unpack the real ones. If they have multiple copies you will get a sealed one but if you pick up the last copy, too bad. I don't really mind, honestly. I will open them anyway. And I always inspect the disc before purchase.
Also, not all stores work this way, luckily. 😀
Honestly, yeah.
I went to the midnight release for Dragon Ball FighterZ and the copy they gave me wasn't even sealed lmaoo. It was an open copy that I assume they had out to put on shelves? It was in a protective plastic bag. By the time I realized, it was too late to go back for an actual sealed copy 💀💀
Yeah I've seen a few video of people saying that managers would take stuff home bring it back and make employees put it back on the shelf as new lol. It's believable tbh considering the way they do things.
I love these videos. GameStop shouldn’t sell games at the same price without the case and manuals though. I refuse to buy them that way.
That makes two of us.
I love the GameStop videos! They are by far my favorites on this channel, keep the content up! 👌
Pro tip: to get marker off most surfaces, draw on it with an erasable marker to get it wet and wipe it off. Also, rubbing alcohol will work on some marker as well.
can confirm, a coworker showed me the erasable marker tip.
Matty - these are my favorite videos. I could watch you open these boxes endlessly.
I can't believe you received a game that was cracked for $15 usd? Crazy. That service needs a major quality control check! I would send that back. Great video to show the current state of buying retro games.
You’ve got me deep diving into collecting as well! I’ve been hunting eBay, facebook and Mercari. Always on the hunt for CIB! What do you do with all your games without cases? Would like to see a video of your full collection!
When I went to gamestop, they didn't have much. They stopped selling old stuff and only had stuff for current gen.
LOVE THESE VIDEOS AND THEY KEEP COMING THANK YOUUU❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
"It's in the box." Eye twitch. 😆
This remains the Goated CZcams series 🙌
With the rise of social media and CZcams and everything else Gamestop had YEARS to rectify everything that people had issues with. They did nothing to change and have only become a relic of the old days. The same that can be said of Blockbuster.
Love this series! Thought it was over after the last one! Been a while.
I’m addicted to YOUR gambling… Thanks
The man juice is back!
12:26
Love these videos!
Matty has slowly went from an optimist to a pessimist who has no hope in this world for GameStop
You know what Matty you earned my sub 👍
I love this videos for the drama. So much joy and pain. (mostly pain in this one)
Gamestop has been throwing out cases for years even back then during the ps2 Era
I came here for the manjuice and I was not disappointed.
Love this series
Gotta say, that intro is absolutely iconic!
Matty: I might have fun. :D
Gamestop: Emotional Damage!
Matty: :(
Matty's wallet gotta be on life support by now lmao
Great to see you today! Had a terrible time getting my wisdom teeth yanked yesterday, thanks for the video to help me relax homie.
it really takes a lot of time to mentally recover from such an endeavour >.<
you're doing gods work here.
may you ever walk in the light of the complete in box copies.
I feel for Matty but I’m gonna be honest I laughed so hard it brought me to tears whe he said“ that’s man juice! That’s man juice!”😂😂😂 keep up the great work
Bro i know how much you love manuals and recently i got a good deal on ultra street fighter iv and super street fighter iv and ultra didn’t have a manual but super had this nice thicc boi with color and everything. You popped up in my head when i saw it. I knew you’d appreciate it. One of best manuals I’ve seen in awhile and surprisingly was a ps3 era game
Boy, that escalated quickly... I mean, that really got out of hand fast - Ron Burgundy.
Yes! I’ll have to watch this on my lunch
YES! I love these lol-
I ❤️ these type of videos.👍
“HAHAHA
NO.”
My favorite Wii games are MarioKart Wii, Wii Sports, Super Smash Bros Brawl, and Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess. Seeing Smash Bros and Twilight Princess with no official case, all scratched up, and with man juice on it hurts my soul
Matty losing his composure in slow-mo just cracks me up!
Love this series. My last Gamestop haul was back in january when I ordered around 10-12 PS4/PS5 games, they had this deal of ¨buy 4 games of $20 or less¨ and get 50% off which seemed too good to be true. I think it was kind of a win, as only 2 games did not come with the original artwork. But Matty here really likes to gamble lol. No way in hell I would order anything from them from before the PS4/XBX1 era, too risky.
I’ve replaced a large amount of games that got damaged from a flood now I have a stack of loose games. I’d be embarrassed trying to sell them at GameStop. So I haven’t a clue why people trade disc only games in. Should be a crime
You can repair ps2 discs with novus 2 Fine Scratch Remover
Unfortunate that SFIV didn't come with the box. I think that was the first 3ds game I got (the 3ds had a pretty infamously terrible launch lineup), and the original run at least came with a cardboard sleeve with a lenticular "3D" cover art. Pretty neat, if a little cliche.
Every Time Mr Matty Releases a Gamestop Video Their Stock Shoots Up!! 🤑
"THAT'S MAN JUICE"!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣!!!!
One thing I always check for are hairline cracks on 360 discs. I've found them to be extremely common around the center. Not immediately noticable
You’re the man, Matt!
I like this unhinged, ready to be hurt again Matty. He's wiley and unpredictable
my Deus Ex CD had 3 big cracks, you could place a knife between the cracks, but it installed the game every time lol
I worked at GameStop awhile back and we were never asked to throw out cases. People just come in and sell caseless games
No sir! You are retro rebound 0:39!
For permanent marker on disks, write over it with dry erase marker and then wipe it off after. The chemicals in the dry erase will debond the ink and should allow you to wipe it clean.
The decal is what holds the data: that's why the bottom of the disc can be scratched and still sometimes be used. Once the label is scratched, the data is lost. You can think of the plastic part of the disc as just a protective delivery mechanism for the printed metal shelf.
My boy, on the next Gamestop Roulette throw them Gloves on.
love these
Man this was a rough one to watch, gotta love gamestop selling loose Galaxy 2 for $45.
Fire into bro
The excitement I got when I saw the thumbnail. Let’s see what we got boys.
I just realized I started collecting old games I was nostalgic for from the gba era because of Matty reviewing DBZ games lmao
Happy to see you post this the day after I quit GameStop lol
Honestly I would expect the man juice games from dk oldies
Not sure I can watch these videos anymore. I don't take pleasure out of seeing Matty in pain
Matty out here spoiling us again.😊
This is why I keep my all my game cases and manuals (if it has a manual) because I collect games but if I ever sell them so this sh*t doesn’t happen
Love your video's
This reminds me exactly of what its like to order from CeX in the UK.
oh don't bloody give me that horrible memory again :'D
Dangit, Matty. Take the box art out before you wipe the cases with wet paper towels. You are getting water under the edges of the cover and you're gonna warp the box art or cause it to mildew if it gets trapped in there.
i am sorry for maybe stupid question - but as i understand you order a particular game in GS but the condition of the game is random? i dont get that. or is it like a cheaper option - where you pay a little bit less but risk the chance of getting a game without a case?
is there an option to just buy a normal copy or do they cost more for a guarantee of good condition?
p.s. btw i love these videos, i just didnt ask this question before because i am unfamiliar with how GS operates. but love this format of videos
Matty, the camera ain't picking up the dirt. But anyone that's shopped at GS or EBgames here believes you.
Why do I like these videos so much? 😂
Dang they sometimes don’t send it with the disk?😅 I guess GameStop is very different from GAME
Not sure why you seem so surprised DS games don’t have a case. No one kept those around. I actually have a stack of them with no games I found in a box lol.
Man juice!!!! 😂
I mean those cases sit on the shelf at gamestop touched by everyone who knows where they have been. Not surprised they would be dirty.
I don't know if this was the same for other GameStop's, but when we threw away our game cases to save up space, we had to cut up each case to prevent re-sell from dumpster divers. When we also got an insane number of copies of a specific game (Desitny 1 at the time) we threw extra copies away and added huge cuts into the disc so they couldn't be read on consoles.
Do you return the defected, no case, and no cover art ones? You should! That’s a way to recover!
Surprised GameStop still sells 3DS games. But the retro gaming store sells more 3DS games than GameStop if you want to build your 3DS collection even more.
Have you done a library collection video? That'd be pretty sweet view
yes!! my favorite of yours
I have those scissors too. It’s for meat though 😂😂😂
Luckily the advantage of places Game Exchange and Vintage Stock you can see what you are buying and its usually decent selection. But my god, I've seen some of the NASTIEST game cases and its unbelievable how they accepted it at that state and put it on shelves. I legitimately bring wipes to my game hunts now. Independent game stores for the win!
Lol I got that same scissors

Dude I just recently spent $50 on a sealed copy of Metroid Samus Returns man you got ripped on that one
The Resident Evil Origins disc could be a rental. It's common to mark them like that to find the disc in the rental drawer.
It’s always so interesting watching this series because anytime I order from Gamestop (and I’ve gotten some ps3 games, wii games, etc) I’ve never really had any of these issues other then them not coming in original package isn’t or having a few scratches (never bad enough to not be useable) guess I’m lucky
I always make sure I get a little manjuice on my games when I sell them.
When cleaning residue and adhesive/stickers, take the artwork out, then use acetone and a paper towel. Works very well.
The Street Fighter IV case slip cover for the 3DS case is a lenticular picture. Its the coolest 3DS covers in my collection.
People still Play this Game on the Ps3.
I can’t begin to tell you how much I love this series 😂 so good and the editing is top tier
How do you do this? Whenever i check the app they only list current gen games.
yo kai 9$! damn, these are cheaper than case replacements in UK
Buy more quick Matty! They're about to shut down a crap ton of Gamestops I think.
