Game Hunting in Las Vegas

[@Drago05]

Totally uncool to raise prices in front of a customer. I would totally walk out.

[@ConManRon]

No need to take it personally

[@lpccali]

aaronk274 yea it is. That’s some pussy broke boi shit

[@ConManRon]

@BottledCitrus prices change bud. Especially in the reused video game market

[@ChaosGenerator]

I went to Las Vegas once and couldn't wait to leave. The negative energy there was so intense and within the 24 hours that I was there, somebody already brandished their knife while I was walking by him. It was around the 4th of July so places were raising their prices to take advantage of the tourists. The traffic and drivers were so bad that it felt like I was going to die out there that way as well. All of that flashiness just seemed awfully empty too. I'm a more low key small town sort of guy so maybe part of it is just me but that was a nightmare experience in my book.

[@PJ-sv4iw]

oh no, we have a BADASS HERE.

[@ChaosGenerator]

@@PJ-sv4iw I'm just telling my story because it really was that crazy. In all my travels (of which there are many) I have never been to such a cesspool and that is saying something huge.

[@PJ-sv4iw]

@@ChaosGenerator You're missing out on all the male strippers then!

[@MetalJesusRocks]

I need to go back to Las Vegas and visit my mom soon. Maybe I can sneak away and check out some cool game hunting spots like this.

[@IndysGameplayVids]

Your footage makes me want to travel to Las Vegas and normally I wouldn't touch Las Vegas with a ten foot pole.

[@TheDolanar]

Glad to see you’ve hit up my town. I go to retro city games a lot of the time. Doug the owner is an awesome guy and I always feel he’s selling the games just slightly lower than most places. We play games has always been crappy. They have a really good selection of games at both locations and the second location you went to I’ve gotten treated well in the past but I’ve always not liked the owner.

[@sndwav2049]

Welcome to Las Vegas, Reggie! Was really cool to see you visiting all the places I go. Yeah, WiiPlayGames on the east side is an "interesting" place. I was once offered a slice of pizza from the clerk's Dominos box because I argued the price of a DS Lite console was to high. They wanted $65, a year or two ago, for a bare crimson and black unit (my kid had just broken the hinge on mine). I told them it was too high and I would give them $49. He said $65 is the price and I'll throw in a slice of pizza (that he was eating right in front of everyone). I walked out.

[@odinsplaygrounds]

That really sucks about them raising the price in front of you. If you knew it was good value, you should just have bought it and not asked them about it. It’s shitty on their end, just saying it’s best to not even give them the hint it’s worth more though.

[@ConManRon]

Support small local businesses . These game shops have a tough time staying open. If you like them, support them.

[@fanatic8316]

Destructo Disk honestly out of all the video games stores they are the worst

[@samvjr9486]

New subscriber to the channel Reggie. Love the retro game pickups and reviews. I really like the chill atmosphere of your reviews. I'm also an Army Vet.

[@OlDirtyDiego]

Retro city is probably my favorite game shop in Vegas, I picked up some great 3ds games there! When it was my birthday this year, I went there and it was one of my favorite birthdays! Cool video Reggie dope watching you game hunt in Vegas!

[@giantdekushield833]

thats so crazy to see you basically visited right behind my house man! I havent been there in like 3 weeks and now im mad ive been buying only manga lately and not many retro games

[@sebastiantravis9406]

As much as I love Video Games, I love Comics/Mangas/Graphic Novels even more lmao. Hopefully even if you haven't been buying any Mangas, that you still find time to read them lol.

[@retrorick]

That museum type store was amazing!!!

[@guyinapandasuit2691]

I appreciate this video for many reasons. I moved from Seattle to Las Vegas last October, and work right by retro city games. I wouldn't be surprised if you stopped in my store and too while you were there. Also had a bad experience at "We Play" There are a few other game shops on the north end of town that you should check out next time you visit. Also Dirt Dog is probably the Best restaurant in Vegas.

[@DEsArcade]

I used to live in Las Vegas and I haven't heard of any of those stores except Fry's. I go to thrift stores for games. I was there in January and found NES games at Savers for 2.99. My bad employee story would be at Funcoland. I was looking to buy Wardener for the Sega Genesis priced at 0.50 cents ( If I had a penny I would go to funcoland to see if I could buy a game). As the employee brought over the game he looked at it and said to me ' this game looks pretty cool, I'm going to keep this for myself' then walked away.

[@MiamiSunrise]

This vid will definitely give me some ideas for game stores to hit in Vegas. Sounded like you had great time, the livestream with Saru, Elvis, Jesse was a lot of fun too!

[@marvelvsdc6611]

Reggie, you had me ROTFL when you mentioned the worker at the store that had to ask his boss for everything!!!! 🤣At the other store, you should’ve recorded the owner once he pulled out his phone recording you! 😂 You’re hilarious Reggie, love the content!👍🏼👊🏼

[@GatsuRage]

4:10 quick fact of the day: they make majority of fighting game characters with big feet and hands so they can be seen more during gameplay for visual reaction type of thing... that's an intent design desition since early CPS2 (capcom fighting games) which industry took as template for majority of fighting games we have today.

[@popixel]

Man Reggie, you make me so jealous when I see these types of posts from you and Saru at this place.

[@matthewpordes3224]

Stores are not supposed to raise the price on games in front of you. If they made a mistake with their labeling, they are supposed to honor what was listed. The fact that they didn’t is unethical. In certain cases you could report this to the Better Business Bureau. At the very least leave a bad review on Google. Maybe the owner will get in touch if the employee did not act on store policy.

[@odinsplaygrounds]

Reggie is all about those gummy bears 🐻

[@BankkeyAoshi]

Saturday morning with family. Much love

[@skaterisme2]

I can't believe that guy raised the price right in front of you wtf that's definitely not a way to treat a customer

[@The_RadicalOne]

skaterisme2 agreed.

[@darkus2015]

watching cars 3 was a real eye opener for me. It has a great message when it comes to moving on and knowing your limits. It describes growing up in such a subtle fashion.

[@kennypitts4829]

I recently moved from San Jose, Ca to Arizona. Game stores in San Jose were not good at all; one downtown was in a basement where the manager would just play pokemon with kids... I sure hope to find good ones near Phoenix/ Scottsdale. Take care!

[@giantdekushield833]

retro city games is the store i literally go to to buy all my retro games XD

[@iamnotyourbuddyGUY]

I order from them online a lot also. I live in Northern Nevada.

[@mijemumijemu4466]

I had a Sega Genesis growing up i think my 2 most played games were Joe Montana football 93 and Herzog Zwei, those were so fun back in the day.

[@jjabuki]

Awesome video Reggie. Actually I expected it was a little longer 🤣

[@jowellgamingshow6907]

Always great to see pickups from you and nice video game hunting! I need to do this soon, I have just been buying retro games mostly on ebay since I usually find good deals but I miss doing things like this. Keep up the good work Reggie :D

[@mechabroski9993]

great to see some travailing, i did some travailing recently and went a bit out of my way to get some great deals on games, used some strategies from your earlier videos and they came in handy.

[@Will-nq3fo]

I'm 3 hours out from Vegas. Love me some "Retro City games". I've gotten a few Gameboy games there I always wanted. Great video man!

[@Stephen_Eee]

I've been trying to remember that "city of lost children" for years, I rented it and hated it, but wanted to pick it back up for some weird reason. I even asked you on live chat once about a game with a 'girl by some docks and stairs' hoping you could figure out with that GrEaT description, but this is it.

[@lightbornadventures]

Aye much love from the valley! Its too bad about your experience with the customer service. I've had some bad experiences at these local retro stores, there just doesn't seem to be much love for retro collecting here in Vegas. Retro city games is the only store that I can recommend quality and good service.

[@conorl1894]

Great find on the rainbow islands/bubble bobble ps1 game. Love rainbow islands, still haven’t completed it

[@braydenpecina1063]

It's crazy how every store in America has a bunch of the PS3 Cabela games. They're hard to find here in Australia.

[@luigi386541971]

Man i wanna visit vegas so bad! It reminds me of California with all those mountains and retro game stores! I loved California when i went last year!

[@screwthenet]

And though I have hated vegas in the past, I have been PUMPED To visit that store for a while since I saw MEtal Jeebus do a vid on it. Saru Sama too did a vid on the store. I NEEDS MONEY THOUGH! :P Great VLOG REGGIE DONO!

[@TechWithSean]

4:17 now THAT is a proper PS3 selection, the generic game cases at GameStop crush my soul.

[@Epiphanetic_]

dawg I live about 10 minutes from that Wii Play Games store, I love that place but you are 100% accurate about the customer service there. everybody working there always has a stank attitude! hahaha thanks for saying something man, hmu next time you’re around

[@maxsonly]

Thank you for sharing your experience in Vegas : )

[@Mr_Zel]

Had a game store the other day .. I had asked a price on a game .. the store worker , turned a game around to check the price and pealed off the sticker n dropped it not thinking I seen it and raised the price and I said oh it’s not the price that just “fell off” .. knowing I seen him peel it off.. and he said yeah I guess I can do that price .. they were both decent prices but still bad business for doing that thinking I wasnt paying attention

[@babyfudge]

I live in Vegas, and A Games Paradise is my probably my favourite store here. The owner was very quiet when I first went in there. But once you get chatting with him, he’s actually a cool dude. Wii Play Games is a great store too, but your definitely right about the customer service. Retro City Games awesome! I need to stop by there to check out their vita section. Hopefully they have some more vita games this time around.

[@The_RadicalOne]

Kelly-Mae Mahoney yeah he steamed cool, just the phone thing threw me off 😆

[@babyfudge]

Radical Reggie haha! ☺️ There’s some more cool stores out here. Hopefully you’ll have some time to check those out next time. The Swap meets out here are really good too! There’s a great swap meets store called Liberty Hustle.

[@jayar1stocrat941]

There is a goodwill near me that has an electronics outlet. I use to build my collection off of them they had great games at dirt cheap for 2-5 dollars that would go for 30-50 bucks. Now they have it so it’s 2 for 6 dollars and the good titles they keep in glass and mark them 10% below market value. Just seen ncaa 14 for the 360 and they had it for 99.99 smh. It’s goodwill though right lol.

[@brycebennett20]

Who remembers Hastings those were cool stores when they were around. Anyways nice stores good finds

[@gfresh007]

The Zia records in Mesa AZ have a decent selection for PS3, PS4 games. Games are well taken care of there and customer service is pretty good.

[@PuroresuFan]

I had an issue similar to your story when I went to Gamestop at Mesa Riverview back in May 2019. I went to go buy WWE 2K16 for the XBOX One because it had an 8.99 price tag on it, and when I brought it to the counter, the cashier raised the price to $16.99. I was dumbfounded at why they raised the price for a game that released 4 years prior. I still bought it and I don't regret that, but I never went to that Gamestop again.

[@robertjames9547]

Hey Reggie now the pawn shops around my area are pricing the games like at GameStop they go and look on the computer for the price at GameStop and match the price smh 🤦

[@Littlebuddyg]

Heck yeah man

[@blank964]

The story about the clerk who had to check with their boss reminds me of my last job as a newspaper reporter. The way it was setup was the main editor was barely in the office and delegated everything to the assistant editor so anytime a decision needed to be made they'd have to wait to hear back from the main editor. Just pure stupidity. Also regarding the price change, that reminds me of when I go to expos and some booths don't have the prices down for games. If I ask for a price, one of the people would pull out an ipad and go on Ebay to get a price for the game.

[@EvilPixel]

i regret not going game hunting when i went to vegas :(
