I really enjoy seeing everybody, buyer and seller, coming in on some fair deals where every one seem happy. That's awesome

I don't know how KZbin recommended this to me, as I don't watch anything gaming-related, but I'm glad it did. Watching you shop for N64s took me back to when my parents gifted me the n64 at Christmas. Similar to your story, but my parents made it seem like I didn't receive a gift that year. Everyone opened presents and I was left there without a gift. My parents told me “we were saving your one and only for last” I remember tearing up as I opened it and caught a glimpse of the System on the box. Thank you

[@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice]

However you got here. Thanks for watching! 😊

As a true 90's kid I can't tell you how much nostalgia this video was for me when i saw the N64 and Gameboy Color, hit me right in the feels and almost made me shed a tear remembering all of the great memories I had with my brother and friends. I can safely say, I lived in the best era to be a child and I didn't even know it at the time. Side note, I have no idea how Ocarina of time isn't on your top 10 my guy, my odd listing on my top10 would be jetforce gemini.

[@Triforcebro]

All I remember is the pain the 64 joycon would give my thumb

[@brandonyeaton7156]

OoT and Banjo Kazooie 2 huge ones missing from a top 10 list!

[@sonnyc3826]

in the "feels" . thats what separates the 80's from the 90's we dont use the word "feels" like that. Nintendo 64 was after super nintendo and the original Nintendo which were better well when Nintendo was the top seller or top Dog then SEga Genesis came

[@c.c.541]

When I was in primary school, my father bought me a Gameboy Pocket and a Famicom. To this day, I still remeber the smell of the video games section of the mall where we used to buy the game cartridges. I still remember the jittery feeling while I was looking at boxes upon boxes of games, imagining what they could possibly look like. It all feels so magical when you're a kid. I still play video games but it seems like the most of the magic is no longer there.

[@spenserdavis788]

Yo, that signed Mario deserved a bro hug. In situations like those, "Thank you" is not enough.

If you able to spend $10 grand on anything let alone a hobby item, there is no such thing as broke. It means you have plenty of money spending like that in the bank without worrying about bills

Rainy El Niño storm night. My parents say they need to go to target. We drive over, me in the back seat. Listening to Fleetwood Mac on the radio. We run out of the car into the rain, and slick parking lot. Parents take the shopping cart, and I run straight to the video game display and demo cases. I discover Mario 64… it was the most amazing thing I had ever seen or played. I’m 35 now and think about it all the time.

[@Paisles]

Similar story here. Im about to turn 30. Nothing is more nostalgic to me than the memories of sitting in front of the game cases checking out all the new games and admiring the artwork of the cases / boxes 😭

[@OmegaIvanovic117]

December 1996, I was 5 years old. My dad and uncle said they got us(My brother and I) something “nice”. I was not expecting anything big because we didn’t had a lot money back then. They show me the box N64 and Mario Kart, I couldn’t sleep that night. It was impossible for me to close my eyes other than blink from time to time. What a wonderful memory

As a kid we opened all of our presents on Christmas morning but no N64. Then my parents saw a letter on the mantle. Turned out to be a scavenger hunt from Santa. We found an N64 at the end and had a memorable Christmas.

[@Zyyk0]

The not for resale signed Mario64 is so cool! Huge congrats :))

I sold my childhood collection after I got married, and now that I'm divorced and rich I've been rebuying them....only in mint condition. I'd rather be married, but having my games collection back is a nice runner-up prize.

[@sneekz07]

Are you buying to to fill the void of not being married?

[@jrf7210]

Need to find a wife in the first place who doesn't want you to sell off your childhood, or anything you are into. They should support your hobby's and sentimental stuff even if they don't understand it. My wife got me a masterpiece Optimus Prime for Christmas one year, at the age of 38 or something, and got me a gaming PC chair one x mas as well.

[@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice]

Welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@markc1793]

The issue i always have with conventions like this, is there's often a lot of people selling the same thing, assuming we're not talking about super rare stuff, so it feels like trying to find the best price/best deal is hard as by the time you've looked all around and figured out that "yep, that first guy had the best price" you go back to find he's already sold it. I guess it's a "me problem" but it just makes these sort of things difficult for me.

[@Thunder43Blue]

My first gaming device was the Atari ST520. I call it a device because not sure it can be called a console. However, my fondest memories and gaming joy was spent on Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64. I came from a poor background, so having these consoles meant so much to me. My Super Nintendo bundle was the Super Mario World, and my second game was the European version of contra called Super Probotector. To me, it will never be contra.

[@Michael-ut6zb]

Excellent choices here. Definitely would pop in Smash Bros for the nostalgia. Since we're talking N64 I think you are missing Zelda Ocarina of time and Perfect dark. I still own my copy of Pilot Wings 64 which was a launch title for the N64. Such a good game one of the best games on the system. Criminally overlooked.

[@Mean-Mr-Mustard]

This is one of my favourite videos I have seen in months. So much nostalgia, so many people loving it!

[@jdonez8347]

So lucky...that's cool af, just found your videos and this brings me back to being around 8 and gettin the consoles and games late but still enjoying tf out of them. Gaming changed my life. I love to game...😅 will be 35 on Jan 3rd 2024...thinkin about buying a Nintendo switch to Mario it up

How do you come across a convention for this? This is amazing!

[@iowatheother4986]

I personally love when everyone writes what the game is on top of the 64 games, so much more convenient and a time savor to just look it over instead of having to look at every single one lol

[@toniembiscuso2949]

I might go out and buy the sets that remind me of my dad. He really loved gaming with me. We were poor but he always found random game finds. I remember him and I playing and beating windwaker. Also following that story id get fed up of him hogging windwaker and I put a quarter in a electric socket and all of the lights and game data went out. HE WAS PISSED 😂 For all his faults he was a cool guy. I remember after a bad day of school he picked me up and surprised me with a used copy of kingdom hearts 2. At the time I never even played the games but he thought id like it. Now it's one of my favorite games ever. I'll never forget how that day made me feel. I miss him, alot. Ps. Idk why I decided to share this. The video just made me think of him.

[@diesel9723]

And you did it without committing charity fraud. I applaud you sir 👏

[@JulioNavarro-ov3ek]

You know when you have all the money to spend is it really that much fun buying games when you can just buy them all. I think when you don’t have as much money to spend and buy games gradually is more fun and fulfilling.

[@LeadMe2TheBliss]

True, but they are businessmen, they buy to sell not to play the games.

Thanks for making me remember all those fun times I had as a kid as well playing all those N64 games... pretty much same top 10 favorite games as the ones on this video 😅

[@blackcat-dh8gq]

I was reminiscing watching this. I was a kid when NES came out. I spent my childhood playing SNES. I remember reading a magazine behind the Christmas tree drooling over the forthcoming N64. My friends would come over and play N64 all night. I remember seeing it for the first time on demo at Toys R Us. I feel sad for those that missed these things and more.

[@ilovemusic6794]

Oh man I wish I had $10,000 oh this would all be split to my kids when I die at 200 years old! 😂😂

[@SgtMiller]

Remember getting my first N64. My family couldn't afford it for a while, I was fine with it. Maybe a little disappointed but I was still happy with what I had. One day I was out helping my Dad carry something back in from the car - he took out that same N64 box and I was in tears.

[@citisoccer]

When you said you're looking for your top 10 N64 games, I'm thinking 'Man, If Goldeneye and Kart aren't in his list, I'm out". Lol literally the first 2 games you said.

I remember being a young kid and thinking about what I'd ask for if a genie granted me 3 wishes. I can't remember all the wishes, but I do remember that one of them would have been, when I turn on the water faucet at my home, instead of water, NES games would come pouring out. I've remembered that as a point illustrating that I have no idea what I really want and how, even if I could be granted my heart's desire, it probably wouldn't do much for my long-term happiness.. Seeing this, though, I guess I would be king of the nerds at these gaming conventions if I'd have gotten that wish.

Remember people, it’s resellers like this that hurt nintendos market so that’s why they don’t put any big Pokemon classics on the gba or re2 on the n64 package for the switch. And it hurts just gamers because Nintendo keeps good games at higher prices so these resellers don’t hurt the value by flipping them for any decent profit since they’re already 45-70. If they didn’t do this, the switch main titles would price drop quicker.
