Such a blast kicking it with you and game hunting. Thanks again for all the fun and letting me crash with you. Too bad we didn’t get some good pics of you and I riding the Jack rabbit 🤣

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

We should have gone back to the jack rabbit

[@GameCubeGalaxy]

Some solid pickups at the convention man! Maximum Carnage is a good one! Sounds like you and TC had a really good time. Also, glad you finally got Home Run King!

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

It was a blast. Yea home run king was on my list and so was courtside that I just picked up.

[@GameKulture]

Man o man what an awesome looking expo! Crazy amount of stuff but weird the lack of more common titles you’d think would be there 🤔 love all the arcade cabs 😍 Phenomenal pickups man! 🔥Always been intrigued by Faxanadu, you’ll have to let us know what ya think when you try it. Aero was awesome! & funny you mentioned Blockbuster as I’ve got a ex rental PS1 title on its way which I’ll have to tag you in when it arrives. Also AvP & the LJN Spider-Man games 👌 #LJNDefender ✊ Sorry for the essay 😂 great vid pal 👍

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

Definitely tag me in the photo when it comes in I love that stuff. Rental stores was just a better time in life lol. Perfect Friday night was rental store, pizza and some beer. Love the feedback GK

[@GameKulture]

@@LameDadRetroGamer hell yeah brother! Was a cool past time going to the rental store to check the new movies 👌👍🍻

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Nice dude! I know you and Tac had some fun for sure. 🍻 That’s really off how they did the purchasing at this game con? 🤔 You had some great grabs. Base Wars is an awesome baseball game probably one of my favorite baseball games on the NES. I honestly love the box art on all the old Marvel games from the 8 & 16 but eras. Even if the games aren’t great the boxart is worth getting alone. Maximum Carnage! 🤙🏼

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

I've talked to some vendors since the show and they have expressed how difficult it was to be vigilant and pay attention to thieves. Base wars is so dope. Love that one. Agreed the box art is awesome and those were the best of the franchise in my opinion. Shame we don't get more games like that.

[@SquarePegs]

David rocking that B E A U T I F U L Astros throwback! A thing of beauty right there! What a bizarre way to run a show - a queue to pay? That really seems crazy to me. Jeff Bagwell - the GOAT 1st baseman. I will always regret that the Sox traded him - generational talent. Stoked you picked up Faxanadu! It's a fantastic title! Love that you and TC got to spend time together, my friend. You guys are the best. :)

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

Jay your a legend my brother. I loved baggie back in the day. Yea dude very strange way to buy games and I've spoken with some of the vendors since and they expressed how difficult it was to stay vigilant the entire show.

[@GenerationPixel]

Some class pickups, but Adventure Island is just a poor man's Wonder Boy 😉 Maximum Carnage, very nice.

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

I hear that a lot about Wonderboy lol.

[@DoYouNerd]

Great pickups! The Aero games look like a lot of fun, I think I missed out. 😮 The AvP premise still holds up no matter what. Back in the day, THAT was an epic crossover concept. The personal connection to Gears is awesome BTW!

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

The first aero is the best in my opinion and agreed AVP no matter what form of media is awesome. Yes sir once my wife chainsawed a locust I knew it was meant to be

[@TotalLevelYT]

Some cool pickups there! I really enjoy Maximum Carnage, I have the Genesis version. Spider-Man X-Men Arcade's Revenge I thought was solid too as I have that on Genesis as well. Sounds like you both had a fun time there!

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

Dude it was a blast. I really like the older marvel Spider-Man games. Dude huge congrats on 500!!!!!

[@TotalLevelYT]

@@LameDadRetroGamer yeah I enjoy a lot of older Spider-Man games. Thank you very much, half way to the 1000 mark lol

[@DanofWar101]

Awesome pickups! Seth did show me your Spider-Man, and I was pretty jealous, but I didn't know about Maximum Carnage!!! Now that's a game I want in my collection! I used to rent it on the Genesis all the time back then! To be honest, I think that this is a convention where I would totally go! In the end, what I want is to add more games in my collection, especially titles that I don't see regularly! Base Wars is a fantastic game that I used to have, and I need to get it again! My cousin and I used to play the crap out of it as kids! You and Seth are people that I would totally hang out with if I was able to go down South! Remember kids: "Please don't beat up a broad" - LameDad 2023 🤣! Great video and keep up the good work!

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

Maximum carnage was a key game on my list and really wanted it on genesis but o well. Dude base wars is so dope. Really impressed by how much fun it is.

[@mtshark7]

Very nice pickups!

[@w0rdsandstuff]

glad you had a goodtime, i was there as well! i actually had marvel v capcom2 for dreamcast but it had a hollywood video label on it (eBay seller forgot to mention

[@orangeblitz4786]

Adventure Island is so good to play from a nostalgia point of view. Played it on an arcade running NES games in Mexico. Means a lot to me

[@davidretrogamesplayedbadly3533]

What an odd way to sell games, as you mentioned very easy for stuff to go missing ☹️. Wonderboy is great fun as is maximum carnage. Great pick ups.

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

Ive talked to some of the vendors that were there since the show and they expressed how hard it was to be vigilant throughout the show. Lol Wonderboy haha

[@gullpayne]

Great pickups - faxanandu was one I wanted to try and learn how to pronounce

[@Owazrim]

Home run king might be fun to check out. I prefer the more arcade style sports games. A line so you can buy something seems really strange. How do you haggle?

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

Home run king is pretty good. The purchasing was just weird, I hope nobody got ripped off. I go in with straight cash and typically offer $10 less than eBay prices on normal items. Bigger more expensive I may try to knock $50 off

[@Owazrim]

@@LameDadRetroGamer you got to haggle especially if you have cash.

[@cyberangel9967]

Radical Reggie is a great KZbinr and he had a panel at the convention. He is friends with MetalJesus who is very popular on KZbin. I had traded some games at the convention but i regretted it the day after...i traded in some expensive games and didn't get alot back...😑. I won't trade no more games at any convention ever again.

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

We listened to reggies panel for a few minutes. Everyone was hitting him up about hidden gem content

[@Heaaaps]

Stupid setup, I'd imagine there were some stole alright. Really Wariowoods is crap? nooooo and im a wario fan (I've not played it) hahaha the saw

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

Lol 😆 I know you love wario anc I was thinking of your reaction when I cut it. It's a terrible game, a simple KZbin video would show you all you need to know

[@Hellv1n]

This setup seems very poorly thought out to me....I always wonder how vendors keep track of all their stuff on a table with big crowds and distractions making a sale at most cons and just throwing all their items on the floor for a free for all....yikes lol. Looks like a great event, a giant retro gaming flea market. Seems like a nice change from all the same youtubers that show up at all these cons I'm not interested in meeting.

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

It was very strange indeed and I really hope nobody got ripped off. Your comment my friend especially the last sentence is one of the best comments I've ever received. Thank you for watching I truly appreciate it.
