Thanks for all of the love on this new video everyone! It was delightful putting this all together and it’s a treat in itself knowing you enjoyed it too 😊

[@Kwizii]

Hi, as a french person who was in the US this summer, I had a similar experience. I collect Zelda merch and in Europe we have so little of it and it's super expensive, in the states I found amazing and silly stuff! It was fun hearing the excitement in your voice because that's how I felt when I found a child's book Molblin's magic spear and my family was looking at me weird so I had to tone it down :D (Also UK is not exactly representative of Europe in some aspects, your experience may vary per country) :)

[@hannah60000]

Your last point is very correct. Europe is a big place after all!

[@wonderfulfable]

Zion, the excitement in your voice as you game hunt is contagious. It's like I am vicariously living through your experience. 👍👍😎😎😁😁

Cex and Cash Convertors are basically the same concept too. They're "second hand" shops. Charity shops rely 100% on donations where as second shops rely on trade ins. The age of dedicated gaming shops is long gone in the UK sadly. Was amazing back in the day and there are still a few dotted about but the culture has moved online mostly.

[@sonnyrynsaard3567]

@@leighdappa not sure where you are in the UK but charity shops in London are sometimes awesome, found some ls3/4 games at ungodly low prices, some snes carts and once found the entire fullmetal alchemist manga series for £2 a book

[@sonnyrynsaard3567]

@@leighdappa hm, for what it's worth, I've had pretty good times with cash converters. They ship nationwide and prior to buying something you can ask them to take pictures of the item to make sure it's all in good condition. I got some boxed 3ds systems from there and everything was all good, even honored my asking for extra bubble wrap incase it got damaged during shipping

I was in the UK last month and checked out CEX after watching Jon's video. I managed to find a steelbook copy of Xenoblade X for only 25 pounds. This was a ridiculous steal and I wasn't expecting to find games so cheap there. Definitely will play that, it was one of my most wanted games before the wii u eshop shuts down.

[@ianwagj]

Zion! Let me give you one hell of a tip when it comes to PAL GameCube games. Most PAL GameCube game do have a PAL 60Hz option on them, it's just that to enable this you need to press and hold the B button as the game boots up, just as you do if you wanted to launch games in progress scan mode on NTSC models. It'll show a menu to select 50hz, 60hz, or perform a test to see if your TV can do it. You'll need to do this on a CRT so that you can at least see the scan, it'll wrap around and around, but once you fix it, you should be able to get the 60hz mode to run. The catch being is that it's PAL 60hz and no NTSC 60hz, so there might be colour problems and more incompatibility issues. It's just that if you don't do the B button thing, you'll be stuck with 50hz. The only other thing I could suggest is buying a TV from a military base, they typically has TVs that will work on multiple signal types because they expect that soldiers might be stationed abroad in a country where TVs might work differently. So if you know a friend or a family member in the army or navy, they might be able to order a TV that supports NTSC and PAL out of the box.

@@brandonscott3423 Dolphin emulator is free

[@raptros]

@@epic6178 Bro, how many times people need to say this about emulation. Companies hold licenses back because of emulation it hurts the ability for Nintendo and other companies to release certain games legally if you keep pirating them, you think Square is gonna want to license Mario RPG for the NSO if people are willing to just pirate the damn game?

[@diegog1853]

@@raptros But he owns the physical game... he can just create an ISO of his physical game from his disc and play the game on dolphin completely legally, no piracy at all. Emulation is not piracy. And besides... your argument is kind of backwards, people WILL pirate certain games as long as they are not available, if square would like to avoid people pirating their games as much as possible, the best thing they can do is sell their games, not selling them doesn't solve anything, just makes the problem worse. People want to buy old games, retrogaming is a huge market, new ports constantly comming out. For most consumers piracy is the last option, it is just a lot harder to do, as easy as it might seem to some, setting up an emulator with a comfortable controller set up, finding the roms, etc is hard for most people. Something they are willing to do only if they really really want to play the game or if they are already acquainted with tech and emulation. I don't blame emulation for the awful practices of a lot of companies regarding their legacy content. They want to create artificial scarcity and emulation at worst is a small fight against that. Not to mention a huge fight for preservation.

[@Rawk__]

As somebody who has a terminal case of “British”, this was such a wild video to watch for me. All of these shops are so common place around the UK, and when you’re that used to something, you take it for granted, or at least I do. I often find myself frustrated by CEX’s pricing, or pretty unfazed by charity shop finds, but being able to see an outsider perspective really makes me appreciate these things more. Also, I never thought in my wildest dreams I’d hear somebody so much as mention castleween, let alone have a designated segment on it. I feel heard! ~Rawk

[@cvanims]

It's so wild, the differences in trivial things like this across different countries. The internet's growth has changed so much to get us all on the same page.

[@tonyx7]

I went to Spain in summer of '04 on a family trip. Nintendo was doing this summer tour thing were they had booths on the major towns, showcasing the Gameboy Advance limited editions (Tattoo version is what I recall), and the latest games. Everywhere you look there seem to be Gameboy Advance stuff. I got Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, and Metroid Zero Mission. As a young teenager I didn't even know about region lock but, looking back I'm glad I got games for a region free console.

[@Food4Dogs]

Loved this, Zion. 😀 Had to smile at mention of Kira Kira Pop Princess! 😎

[@Toaster05]

It's funny how from a North America perspective CeX can be seen as a potential bargain hunters dream. Being from UK myself I see them as rip off merchants. The sticker prices in my local store would make an onion cry!

[@BassBanj0]

I think they are great on prices for the most part They seem to price things up that are more popular etc so there are definitely games that are overpriced, but for the most part I find their stuff fair and better than most other places

[@Zveebo]

I don’t think they are bad at all, especially give you have the benefits of being able to check the product in person. They do inflate the price of more recent stuff sometimes, but for retro games they are usually pretty fair, and sometimes a bit of a bargain compared to other places to buy.

[@Toaster05]

@@Zveebo it seems to vary wildly from store to store. My local has some crazy pricing going on at times but it's a small town store, I'd expect London prices to maybe be more competitive due to competition.

The only things I've seen at Cex that I think are overpriced are GameCube games. TTYD costs £120 now.

[@PyraJord]

@@Toaster05 The prices at CEX are done by an external pricing team the whole company follows. All stores use the same EPOS system and should have the same prices unless they havent updated the price labels.

[@worldsboss]

I love how you talked about CeX like it was some crazy obscure place that nobody had heard of 😂 I shop there regularly! It’s true that a lot of games are cheaper here, but Etrian Odyssey V or the SMT games on 3DS are all ludicrously expensive 😢

[@Hecilo]

Awesome Video, but as a former collector from Germany, I can say that you shouldn't mix up UK with other European countries. Games there cost a friction of what they cost f.ex. in Austria or Germany. Which is why I also had a chunk of games from there. Also due to various censorship rules, it's sometimes better to get your game from abroad. On a classtrip to London 2009, first thing I did was buying Mad World which never released in Germany due to the adult rating.

This vid brings back such good memories of my time living in the UK and visiting CEX! Such fun. Also during those 2 years I found this little shop in London that sold new gaming gear but if you went downstairs there was a basement full of retro games. I always got so excited to go visit the store and pick up goodies from there. Keep up the amazing content!

[@VGManiac456]

10:45 Actually, while a vast majority of DS games are region free and can be played on any DS or 3DS system regardless of the region, games that utilize the DSi's hardware in some way (ie: camera or WPA/WPA2 internet connections) are semi-region locked and can only be played either on the correct region's DSi/3DS systems or an original DS/DS Lite from any region. It's a very small number games that do this (the only games I'm aware that are this way are DSi exclusive games and the Gen 5 DS Pokemon games), but it's something to keep in mind if you find one of those games. That said, yeah. The prices for older games here in the US is absolutely ridiculous, so I'm pretty surprised to see such cheap prices in other regions for some games even with conversion being considered.

[@blackstep_dad2572]

You are the “actually” meme lol

[@worldsboss]

I really feel as though in the US people artificially inflate the prices to make them seem more valuable, causing people to pay more for them, and so on. Some games really are valuable, but most are not worth anywhere near market value over there.

Game hunting in Europe actually differs wildly in each country, France and the UK are very different from let's say Belgium or Germany. A major hassle Europeans have to deal with as well is the language barrier as some games are dubbed in the native language of the country it's being sold at without having the option to change languages. I live in Belgium, more specifically the Flanders region and I have to deal with French versions of games constantly...

[@Michafrar]

So true, as a Belgian, I resorted to just hunt for UK copies. But whenever I find something cool, it’s always some french (irl) or Italian (online) copy

[@VogueDistortion]

I agree, every country has it's own market. Some prices can vary between regions and game tastes are slightly different (so some games can be more or less obscure). Many of the prices seen in the video are better than what you would pay in a shop here in Belgium.

[@ct4547]

In Luxembourg it‘s the worst actually. If you find games with only one language, it differs from every shop. Some have them in German, some in French and some in English. Sometimes dutch is also packed in either the german or french Versions. I mean, I don‘t care about them games not being Luxembourgish, I don‘t like that language anyway.

[@VogueDistortion]

@@ct4547 I think we are both 'crossroad countries' so it is not really that surprising. :) At least most games are multi language these days. It doesn't really affect gameplay. And sometimes I am happy to buy a german, Italian or French version just because it is a few euros cheaper. In a way it is also charming that I have game boxes in all the possible languages.

Interesting to see your experience browsing European games 😊 One big asterisk is needed though. You kind of had the luck of buying your games in the UK and thus the games will be in English. But if you buy across the mainland of Europe, you need to watch out for regional versions with no English whatsoever! As a Belgian from the Dutch speaking part of Belgium, I bought Black & White back in the day from a bargain bin in the Dutch speaking part, but the game on the disc turned out to be in French … It was luckily a PC game and they released the English language as a patch, but you will be out of luck with other games and especially with console games.

I live in Sweden and most physical stores for video games are out of business here. Occasionally I'll stumble on one, but even so prices are ridiculous. There are a couple that always show up on our version of comic con, but it's not even fun to browse their selection because of the prices. But I did go to the UK back in 2019. I went to MCM Comic Con in Birmingham and walking past the video game stalls there were an absolute delight. I got complete in box copies of Pokemon Ruby, Pokemon Platinum, GBA version of Link to the past and Yu-Gi-Oh Duelist of the Roses for PS2 (but no manual for that one) for a total of 115 GBP. That wouldn't even pay for Platinum alone in Sweden. Looking at Swedish "eBay" right now (3 years later, but prices haven't gone up that much as far as I know), I'd have to pay the equivalent of over 300 GBP for those same games, not including shipping. Also went to a CEX in London where I stayed. Didn't buy any games there, but did buy a Complete in box Playstation Vita for 85 GBP. Best I could find in Sweden for a boxed one is 200+ GBP and a loose one sells for around 130-150.

[@Andyliini]

Seeing this really made me think how used games sales are different everywhere around Europe. I live in Finland myself, and I have noticed that many of the games that are super expensive in US or UK, can be found relatively cheap here. For example, I read that Dragon Quest IX can be over hundred dollars or punds, but here I was able to find one for 40€. And there was not even a huge demand for it. Or course, there is less demand for these games and therefore way less supply as well, but trying to find out of print games from DS/Wii -generation onwards can fun and sometimes surprising. Older games tend to be more rare and have carts only as preservation of cardborad boxes and paper booklets weren't exactly a priority for people before retro gaming became cool.
