I used to have 17 psp

[@RL_Stine_88]

What time on the 29th??

[@BryantAvant]

Rick I’ve asked toy collectors as well, do you think the market for 80s and 90s merch has peaked right now or will it continue to rise in value over the next 20+ years and will it still be valueabl after the millennials are gone?

[@eelobrian6727]

Rick, it has been quite the journey following your channel over the years. You went from hunting flea markets with Cary, Tommy & Chuck, to having them run expo booths for you, to opening a massive store, to getting major sponsorships, and now your own full length infomercial. Amazing dude. i remember when you were bummed if games were over $2 🤣 So crazy how much has changed in the collecting community in such a relatively short amount of time. Looking forward to many more!

[@yewnew]

I miss Tommy Nitro 😢

[@noggvod]

I’m the employee that sold him the two games at the last vintage stock. Def come check it out and come buy stuff from us and talk video games if you’re ever around Fayetteville Arkansas!

[@mlballhawks]

Just heard Rick say, "...I don't like Star Wars..." and now I'm questioning everything.

[@marioortiz9164]

🗑

[@joroar18681]

me too... bummer😒

[@vintagecrazyjay4970]

When I heard that, I was like, "UNSUB"....but I'll give him a second chance

[@1CrispyCracker]

Sorry dawg. Getting the downvote for that slippage

[@onetrues3978]

Yeah he's into pokemon, power rangers, cartoonish games that look to be designed for younger kids , thinks Nintendo made the best systems and is wearing a 3rd eye blind shirt. I enjoy the channel but it's hard to relate honestly quite often. Age gap I guess. Good for him. He likes what he likes.

[@HeavyDebriefings]

Watching this has made me realize the term grail/grails means absolutely nothing.

[@ricopage7470]

Exactly my thought.

[@bwagz8966]

I agree

[@smithmr1]

A Grail is a personal thing. One man's grail is another mans trash.

[@HeavyDebriefings]

@@smithmr1 none of those were picked up here. They were picked up for a Whatnot auction. A big ticket item does not always equate to being a "grail".

[@lewismatthewj]

the term is really what the individual desires.

[@mikeh.9954]

I'm always amazed at the amount of stock these stores have ...

[@johncraig2684]

Ricks turning into Richard Simmons

[@TheGebs24]

There’s NO better feeling than finding a Gaming Grail. I love the hunt 🇬🇧❤️ We all do right?!

[@HomeworkRadio]

I loved it when you spoke to the lady in the thumbnail. She's awesome! 😂

[@oisinmckellar3046]

I wouldn't call those grails if they fairly are easy to find. All solid games but if all fairly easy to find they arent a grail in my opinion. A grail in my opinion need to difficult to find uncommon and low print or manufacturer run.

[@Teadrinker710]

Well that’s just like your opinion man

[@TheNintendoDScollector]

Gotta collect em all

[@patrickgarvin2570]

Great grabs fellas. The super puzzle fighter is the biggest get for me. Those vintage stock stores are really nice looking, I've never seen or heard of them. 🤟🤙🤘

[@ValcristRoda]

Props on saying the title "Suikoden" correctly! The creator passed away recently so seeing that game gives me feels.

[@chrisstearns4512]

I remember my mom buying me that same black label on clearance for my bday, her not knowing anything about RPGs I had my doubts. Turned into one of my all time favs and I have been saying it so wrong for almost 30 years. Never knew

[@Cheeseshredder]

It's pronounced Sui-skro-dem

[@eltenda]

Awesome thanks for sharing dude

[@cooper9607]

As someone that also lives in arkansas Vintage Stocks are pretty cool I bought my copy of Epic Mickey there!

[@ThisBenners]

Great hunt, keep finding those grails!

[@JSNMSR]

Hell yeah, you're in my area. Welcome to the neighborhood! There's a Game Xchange in Van Buren, Ar. as well.

[@pawsomelabrastead9244]

People may be saving for the spiritual successor to Suikoden called "Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes" releasing on April 23rd 2024. It was a Kickstarter game that had huge funding success, but the best part is that its being directed and produced by Yoshitaka Murayama who created Suikoden.

[@RL_Stine_88]

People may be saving for it?? What do you mean saving for it haha? Also, isn't that game launching on Game Pass day one?

[@joshuacamps4990]

Anyone remember the 10$ game collection series? That was peak Retro Rick.

[@flamingduck11]

Excellent video Rick

[@brianspacil7599]

Got the pleasure of running into y'all while you were filming this.

[@noble_wine]

Baby park mesmerized Rick. 😂

[@GamerAhmer]

So many cool stores!

[@kbramlett6877]

There are 3 Vintage Stock (V-Stock) stores in the Greater St Louis area. One in St. Peters MO., one in Chesterfield MO, and one in what is known as South County MO. Also, there are 2 in Joplin, MO.

[@RetroPennsylvania]

Awesome video 😊

[@StonerJames]

Rick, I laughed my ass off when I heard you say Suikoden. You are the only one I've heard pronounce it that way. The correct pronunciation of Suikoden is "Psy-koden."

[@FallujahMarine0311]

No lie, the real gem in this video is that 3EB shirt...

[@nfsracer12341]

I live right next to Crested Butte, Colorado. Always makes me smile to see Michael's CB shirt!

[@WallyZ_World]

Omg I lost it @10:08 🤣🤣💀💀💀💀💀

[@p1xai]

mario dance rmx 😁

[@willcusterjr2519]

you totally bypassed the door with the full size TARDIS

[@SOUTHERNPRIDE246]

Dam just realized that I won one of the games featured on this on your Whatnot tonight. That’s pretty sweet. Thanks for what you do Rick.

[@kennyboggs3676]

Retro Rick and the Arkansas Picker are two of my favorite KZbinrs!

[@swupetey05]

Maybe the only grail in the video, price wise, doesn’t even get mentioned (Although I don’t know why anybody would want it). Color a Dinosaur in the Box.

[@Jokir4754]

4:29 Super Robot Taisen OG Saga DS. Passes it right by. Clearly difference of opinion on what is considered grail.

[@joshsparrowchannel]

that zelda "insert" is the map!! cmon Rick!! lol

[@AutoYoung]

3:56 Should’ve got this for Riff. You KNOW he loves Bow Biters…

[@rorymartin8250]

you have alot of cool vintage shirts come through your channel...this third eye blind might just be the best!!!

[@-Down-D-Stairs-]

Crypto Rick back at it again with another video boys!!!

[@lukekart]

That third eye blind t shirt is so so dope. So jealous.

[@bradtraq1]

How does such a big store filled with 90 percent crap stay open and have multiple locations in a small radius? Crazy to me

[@714milky]

1:06 *illuminati confirmed*

[@krissycirino8230]

There is video game retro store around my home in downtown savannah, GA that has the same Pikachu and i believe it is for sale.

[@galaxygoonz6303]

Heck Yeaa I Never seen another vintage stock I live in topeka kansas and we have one here

[@cloficc7234]

For 200 Bucks, this better be the 5 screw lol

[@DemonicPresence666]

Love the Third Eye Blind shirt

[@greglong9894]

I’m the weird guy that actually really likes Castlevania 64

[@donnytucker]

NES controller box is sooooo nice.

[@1234tbent]

Suikoden mention in Retro Rick?! Love it

[@rydamusprime]

I recently ordered a CIB Suikoden II to finish my North American Suikoden collection. Now I just need the card game for GBA and I will have all the Japanese games that weren't released here.

[@ZackMuffinMan]

Nice!!

[@VintageGamerLtd]

"Grail" is the most overused word ever on this channel... but I don't even care. Just fun to watch! =)

[@heartlandvintage]

I enjoyed this episode

[@jaime85624]

We're playing fast a loose with the term "grail"!! ;)

[@ECTOERICSARCADE]

Yes Rick you are correct, half the games do not have to be Castlevania...ALL THE GAMES HAVE TO BE CASTLEVANIA!!! 👊😜👍

[@JGanes]

Several years ago, I called them about that Pikachu and they said $1500.

[@AluccardX]

I'm feeling pretty good since I have like 75% of these CIB.

[@Backintoons8515]

I just did watch a whatnot commercial!

[@davidfly7426]

And now I want Freddy’s… Thanks Rick!😂

[@DealhsHand1]

I keep marking my list off of places to not go because all the good stuff was already bought

[@Leny1777]

I have never seen Donkey Kong 64 on any store not even in the 90s.

[@fedsen]

Being a leap year day that the giveaway happens, I'm slightly bummed you didn't find an old school CIB Frogger to giveaway.

[@AndrewGamer666]

Hey retro rick love your channel you do great gaming videos also I got donkey Kong 64 for my 64 yesterday I got the 64 on Monday and got new games for it yesterday nice pick bro😁👍🏼

[@phantom_cards8599]

Me. Casually looking at my chain chomp lamp

[@anime_link2264]

I’m the employee that sold him the charizard lol.

[@mjdf122]

Retro Rick back on the hunt for grails

[@daveguiney3437]

the same boxed zelda $250 in the uk unreal

[@paulsmith9786]

6:13 😱😱

[@Fatninja479]

I doubt the DK64 has the expansion pak with it, but $75 for the game, box and presumably the manual isnt bad

[@robertjohansson9853]

Classics would be the right term

[@jrksoldierx1436]

i would check the upload , videos not playing right

[@parttimegamer5938]

rich with the evil is good signs

[@ryandann9362]

Haven't watched the video yet, but seeing a boxed copy of DK64 being called Grail #9 is strange. "Grail" has apparently lost all meaning. It just now means anything cool and worth more than a hundred bucks I guess? Before a Grail meant something rare and hard to find. Not even necessarily expensive. Stadium Events being one of the most well known. In N64 circles it would likely be Sculptors Cut, or one of those games packaged with a shirt or figure. In Ps1 circles it would be a jewel case variant of a Long Box game like Ridge Racer. Ohh geeze I bought Silent Hill black label!! GRAIL!!! It's lost all meaning.

[@kris198921]

There may have been 1 or 2 actual grails in this video

[@7thangelad586]

Carey is so good-looking.

[@vh9129]

prices in america are so high for this stuff , wish I could sell my stuff in america :D

[@craigstevens3394]

My tummy hurt

[@SuperIronDan]

I live near Montreal and I'm so jealous of all the store who sell retro game in a short radius in the US, it's a barren wasteland around here...

[@pcphoenix123]

I was thinking the same thing…

[@Spooky-XVX]

Ricky Edit, calling it now.

[@ne0n1880]

Belgium isn't in the list of country's on whatnot, too bad

[@jarenlanoria6366]

retro rick

[@unklejohn8575]

Dang! That gal in the thumbnail is cute!!

[@stevemelo]

Looking for rare games is more accurate. A grail to me is an Action Comics 1 or if you want it to be video game related, Stadium Events. Just saying. Not hating I just feel like the term grail is just getting overused these days.

[@retrowatcher]

Exactly. Drives me crazy lol

[@esaiortiz999]

Yayyyy

[@jeremiahhogeland8022]

Hey Rick, you’re looking for grails in this video I wanna ask you about one of my personal grails. How about PSone X-Com UFO Defense?

[@dakoitcave817]

“Charizard is our childhood!” Not sold on that.

[@kubakiller]

Grails 😂

[@Pipo2709]

Nice

[@gullyfoyle2615]

I dont think rick knows what a grail is.

[@mitchellnelson8225]

Gotta nitpick just a bit. Just watched this video, and you kept saying you were in Fayetteville during the first 3 stores. You were in Bentonville and Rogers. The last vintage stock was the only one in Fayetteville.

[@GodsMinion7]

There was a golden axe for Sega!

[@artrogue4150]

For my son !! My tummy hurts.

[@EternalLoveAnkh]

Dude! I got my eyes set on a sealed Zelda, not just CIB. March 1 is my birthday, so do I get a birthday present? lol RJ

[@p1xai]

nes controller boxed ... nice grab

[@justinmuir8235]

Where can I get my hands on that amazing black Retro Rick jacket you had on?

[@rydamusprime]

Missing the map for Zelda as well

[@andrewgrant6516]

Don't you just hate it when "content" on media platforms just turns out to be extended adverts for competing media platforms?

[@onitutu]

Hello @RetroRick i love your channels, i love the whatnot too but because im in another country, i never know the exact time you re gonna be there. Can you put a countdown somewhere? It would be nice for everyone who doesnt live in the US like me but have someone who can receive the games and then send them to me later. Thanks a lot, keep growing, have a great day !

[@shuny11r23]

Wasn't that SuperRobotTaisen on the DS considere a Grail?

[@PoKeMoNrUlEz91]

How much was that base set 2 charizard? Only asking because I’ve been saving mine since childhood

[@lucasjabrandt5762]

I want one of those fancy TY beannie baby

[@bonestcc]

There a place in pasadena texas that works for a church and they sell nothing but holy grails everything there is a holy grail they sell video games and pokemon cards and star wars stuff and comic books u should check It out 1 day u might find something u like
