AKIHABARA Retro Game Hunt: 100% PS2 Games!

[@andogamer1]

PS2 was an amazing console and tons of games! Luckily I still have my PS2 slim and some good games. Gradius V is amazing! I have the North American version 😊

[@MadPanicGaming]

A brilliant shooter indeed. My PS2 slim and a wallet full of games used to travel everywhere with me.

[@gsggshhhh455]

Great! Thanks for including some gameplay footage too

[@FalcomScott312]

Nice seeing so many amazing PS2 games here & I'm a big fan of the PS2 gaming era here! Glad seeing a copy of the Neo Geo games for the PS2 system which are so affordable compared to the AES which is so stupidly expensive to collect for now a days.

[@MadPanicGaming]

True, but pretty much anything is affordable compared to the AES lol

[@TheKazzerscout]

I need to get back. Game hunting in Akihabara was glorious.

[@MadPanicGaming]

Hopefully it'll still be there when you get back lol

[@MoonlitSlime]

The PS2 has a seemingly endless library, especially including Japanese only titles! I haven't been to Japan yet, but I do like picking up assorted odds and ends online

[@MadPanicGaming]

Over 4,000 official releases, plenty to choose from

[@RichRetr0]

Great video as always Jim! Could you bring back the conversion rates? I like torturing myself by seeing how cheaply I could be collecting if I only lived in Japan lol

[@hudsonball4702]

I have the NA Grimgrimoire! Great game with a great story and characters. I wish it had gotten an anime adaptation! Even the English dubbed version is better than most. I also recently got a JP version of Dragon Quest 8 CIB in great condition. I need to get a protective case for it.

[@MadPanicGaming]

My favorite DQ game

[@darktetsuya]

so much good stuff! not surprised to see the taito memories games going for crazy money last I checked online they were going for quite a lot, yeesh. also yknow I forgot most of the Ys games were on PS2! I remember playing Ys 3 back on SNES, whenever I get back around to collecting for PS2 I may have to look these up! (like I downloaded the EGGch version of Ys 1 on Switch I really have to get back around to it soon.) also the gradius games!

[@MadPanicGaming]

Taito Memories Vol.2 is worth every penny just for Warrior Blade

[@Korusuro1981GamingAnimeA-id6th]

Funko Land? Man by the time I could get around to check their stores out, Funko Land had already became Game Stop.

[@MadPanicGaming]

It was a decent enough shop, but the staff were always jerks lol. It's almost as if that was part of their training.

[@TkyoSam]

This was badass!

[@MadPanicGaming]

The best kind of ass next to big.

[@robertthenerd8617]

Love the MST3k reference, love that show!😂😂

[@MadPanicGaming]

One of my all-time favs

[@Soberliving]

Awesome video man! I love the ps2, btw the video we made already has about 300 views! that's huge for my small channel! thanks again for sharing it buddy, all the best.

[@brollicon]

I miss seeing ps 2 game's at thrift store every week. Man what an era

[@MadPanicGaming]

There's always still a ton of them at Hard Off, so I'm grateful for that.

[@venomtang]

just came to slap like, I'll be saving this for the evening

[@MadPanicGaming]

Much appreciated

[@HansBoopie]

Speaking of M2 ShotTriggers, I would really like to see the new Aleste make it from the arcade to the Switch! Thanks for another video!

[@FuzzyKedama]

19:00 Hahaha MST3k. I know exactly which episode you are referring too. TOUGH DARK FIGHT. GRISTLE MCTHORNE BODY. THICK MCRUN FAST. PUNCH ROCK GROIN. Hahahah

[@MadPanicGaming]

My sense of humor is 50% MST3K, 20% Beavis & Butt-head, 20% South Park, and 10% Ren and Stimpy

[@sipscha]

I was in Akihabara a year ago today :( DAMN I MISS IT

[@atomiswave1971]

Gregory Horror got a pal release. It failed the usa quality test for 3d Aaa. Never got released stateside. It's on my pal wants list.

[@MadPanicGaming]

Had no idea. Thanks for the info!

[@atomiswave1971]

@@MadPanicGaming just spent money on pal Ys ps2. Can't find 2d game though. Maybe japanese only.

[@fazares]

very cool stuff

[@MadPanicGaming]

Thank you kindly.

[@vincently1995]

I like PS2 games.

[@QF_Dan72]

4:24 What's cool about Taito Memories is that they have four releases in Japan whilst NTSC/PAL only two releases. Too bad Taito will never rerelease them again. Now, they rather make Taito Milestones that only have few games which is lame.

[@solracrod]

I liked I commented I’m subscribed And I always enjoy the shows!

[@MadPanicGaming]

THANK YOU!

[@chocolocojames213]

Gradius V is so delicious 😋😋😋

[@MadPanicGaming]

It is indeed.

[@dave4shmups]

Are you into PC gaming at all? Because I know you mentioned that PS2 emulator.

[@MadPanicGaming]

Not really a PC gamer aside from emulation.

[@MrIamcrusty]

Did you have a old KZbin channel? The game room? The main logo was a bird.

[@MadPanicGaming]

You're thinking of Classic Game Room. No, that's not me, but I do get confused with Mark a lot.

[@MrIamcrusty]

@@MadPanicGaming damn man. You guys have the exact same voice.

[@giovannyvasquez1099]

Hey, Jim! How are you doing?

[@hatdude5138]

It’s sad Sony does support PS2 games on the PS5. I have to believe the PS5 has the horsepower to emulate PS2 games.

[@Mahoromatic]

Wait until they unlock the console and we get homebrew

[@Cosmic-Naga]

Name of track at 0.35? Anyone

[@MadPanicGaming]

Ultimate Fighters by Kippy
