[@andrasszabo7386]

The first Game & Watch I had was Mario's cement factory. I found that in a nearby dumpster in its original box with a lot of other cool stuff. Then there were the russian clones. But the Mario one I have played a lot. Also my father enjoyed it, too. He was unbeatable in that game.

[@callingalldannys]

For those who don't know, that McDonalds DSI is MAD rare. In Japan, McDonald's would train their employees using those DSI's along with a McDonald's DS game (which is even harder to come across). Super cool that you have one, keep it forever!

[@SixtyDoesStuff]

Awwww, I'm always struck by nostalgia whenever I see a green DMG like mine that was stolen as a kid.

There were actually 3 tingle games exclusive to Japan, one was club Nintendo released and the other two are regular releases, which are sequels to each other

[@TheAstropath]

The first of the Tingle games (Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupee Land) wasn't actually Japan-exclusive as it had a European release as well (Which is fully playable in English).

Fun video, thx for posting. Nice score on the mystery DSi, it was used for training purposes in Japan back in 2010. Looks like you got the training software and all!! Sweet.

I just watched the documentary about the Maccas DS and its matching game last night. I kind of want one some day, but the Pokémon one is cooler. Especially with Sinnoh coming back around this year.

Hey Elliot!! I know you like watches and I thought it was worth mentioning that the same company “Mani” that made that cassette player also made a gameboy wrist watch in 1992. That’s something I think you might enjoy!

You were right about the Zelda game&watch stand. I currently live in japan and preordered one on amazon jp, i got the stand alongside the game&watch itself

[@TREEKO978]

someone I met in Japan gave me a tetris micro arcade (same pruduct, different name) and I love it! one of the best ways to play tetris portable IMO.

[@JomasterTheSecond]

Fun fact, the Cassette Boy _is_ official. I know it at least got a general European release with the official Nintendo seal on it. There was even a Cassette Boy Colour, too.

[@undeadgamer2347]

I remember when I was very young my grandparents bought me a brand new Palkia and Dialga DS lite, I loved that thing and I used it until I'll literally fell apart, wish I would've kept the box and the shell of it, I never thought it would be worth something one day

[@haitchgee8502]

Great video again Elliot. I’d love to one day see you and Freya do a tour of Japan 🇯🇵 looking at retro stuff in the country of origin. Would be so awesome!!

[@SonicManEXE]

That massive stylus and its stand would be super neat to play Pokemon Ranger with.

[@dodgydruid]

I bought one of them "retro sticks" which has a pair of very nice wireless controllers and the stick is just a HDMI stick that has a SD card stuffed with games, I am upgrading my RPi from a 3 to a 4 and thought to just use this as intermediate til I get me Pi 4 build sorted. Quite looking forward to its arrival as it alleges 4K on the blurb, suspect its just a cheapo android stick.

[@Rokios]

I do believe the rarest Tetris is the Mega Drive Tetris (G-4007) Cancelled right before release so there's estimated 6-50 copies.

[@holdenmincks1774]

Super excited to see the original DS transformation video I just got one of them as well and am nervous to change the shell

[@hicknopunk]

The tetris boxed for Japanese gameboy is rare? I have one, but i flattened the box (safely). A bunch of the things I bought in Japan I made the boxes flat to get them home in my luggage safely. That will probably affect the value I bet.

[@ActualCharky]

I think it's the fact it's a combination of the big box and the minuet that makes it rare, in this case. The standard edition isn't rare at all.

[@hicknopunk]

@@ActualCharky i bet it is the standard one

[@ActualCharky]

@@hicknopunk tbh, I got a small-box minuet for less than $10 on sendico. They're only reallyrare on a global scale, they're quite common in Japan. I've never seen a big box Tetris at all though.

[@christophermorin9036]

@@tenchuu007 If the case of the TV is large enough, I don't see any issues in de-shelling a dtv converter box and just hot gluing it to the inside of the case. Then you just solder the inputs and outputs where they need to go. That little Sony though, I don't think it's possible. I've taken apart portable televisions before and even a CRT that small is about 5-6 inches long, there would be no space inside.

[@tenchuu007]

I was thinking one of the reflex Walkman versions. I think there's some space inside, no sure how big an antenna it would take.

[@ericcook5745]

I don't know if you've been following the trend behind the McDonald's DS but at least to my knowledge there was a few people trying to find the games for them as well because they're rare as well and last I knew of most of them were found I think except for one I don't know which one if you even have the cartridge for it you may have the missing piece of the puzzle that people have been looking for. I could be mistaken cuz I've only been watching it but I think it's the third cartridge out of three that no one was able to find yet I believe the other rooms have been uploaded already I'm not sure totally but something to look into either way I'm sure you'd be a fan of it regardless.
