How do you not carry a gamebit screwdriver around with you when you're buying high priced NES games? I take one with me when I go to the game store to buy $50 games.

[@OleMacDonald]

He’s a risk taker

[@selbyjohnson5986]

The pins are so new I would think it was fake too. It’s like nobody ever played it.

[@MysteryAGMLegend]

JRPG Life the saviors of this video, buying the nes game bit for Rick

[@unclemogi]

Not the body pillow ending 💀

[@rollingwithstones]

The Pokémon Game Boy was originally $749 and he accepted your offer of $660 cash but $750 was flashed on the screen.

[@georgewashingmachine1]

It’s an Editor Riff error.

[@iamPROTOTYPE]

@@georgewashingmachine1 hes got a lot on his plate

[@tomtroni]

Shit is scripted

[@Roxxxxxxxbottttter]

He pays Riff too much.

[@denvernaicker8250]

what's the difference between $750 and $660 in the retro videogaming world? ...about $90

[@stashmerkin9576]

How do you not have a game bit on your keyring or something? Elisa to the rescue!

[@jrpgwife]

😊

[@Cheeseshredder]

@@jrpgwifegood job, u guys come prepared. 👍 smart.

[@ChrisHNgo]

Rick has not learned the lesson of carrying a Nintendo Game bit out to any gaming convention

[@Vicissitudemagazine]

Because he's an idiot and not a professional salesman/collector. Just a youtuber wannabe.

[@davidtran9444]

Rick walks around still with the mindset of a collector instead of a business proprietor. He should be concentrating on accumulating product rather than adding another retro kiosk to his store.

[@phile6889]

You would think its a tool of the trade by now but nope...

[@aceboogie2021]

Always thought why don't they check for authenticity. Thought they do it off camera or something.

[@drunkensailor112]

​@@davidtran9444he buys this stuff for his personal collection. Not his shop

[@lyrand6408]

The real mistake was probably to have purchased a big hitter knowing that the seller didn't know himself if it was real or not ahead of time (not to mention that some sellers would simply outright lie that it's real to start with). Not sure I would ever purchase big hitters like that 'on the spot' so to speak. It'd have to be done at a store and the seller would have to open it up and we'd both look at it to make sure.

[@Reiku78]

I would of never bought it with that case. Cause that was major suspect.

[@tanigarcia100]

Had the same thing happened to me the guy said they just got a Hagane in they haven't put for sale no price sticker 1000 for it I told him to open and he said he couldn't

[@ca18drifta1]

That WII sign was mine I traded it in to 1up games here in Mesa, AZ like 2 weeks before the expo

[@megamob5834]

How does no one at this convention have a game bit? 😂 Also, you’re a mad lad for buying that from complete strangers without authenticating it… 😅 I wouldn’t spend more than $20-$30 on a cartridge without opening it up first

[@Vicissitudemagazine]

I mean he's an idiot. He probably sells fake crap at his store.

[@Cosworth190e]

Its just click bait... of course he knew it was legit off camera before buying

[@MarketplaceMaverick]

It might sound crazy but I bought 2 Bonk's Adventures (loose) in one lot on Marketplace. Both were real :)

[@Atizzle121310]

I am living in japan currently and I saw that gold Mario in a second hand store in better condition than that one for like $50 lol the price difference in America is wild!

[@CalebSmith-do9jd]

If it was $50 and in better condition you would have bought it

[@freddycoronado2496]

Retro I'm going to be driving thru Conway sometime Friday.. obviously stopping at the shop will be the highlight of the trip can't wait to visit

[@DaWrestla]

Damn I miss the $10 Game Collection and old school Retro Rick - but good for him that he is doing so well

[@ThiKu]

Agree!

[@HoLeeFuk317]

"We never opened it up to see if it was real". Sure guys

[@AutoYoung]

I always wondered why the cartridge had to be so big if the board was so small…

[@johncraig2684]

my wife said to me why is my board so big and your cartridge so small.

[@verygreedy100]

Some of the boards are significantly larger...thats one of the smaller ones. A lot of Koei games are larger or the ones with the famicon adapter in them etc.

[@coinworker]

They wanted the cartridge to resemble a vhs. It was an "entertainment system" not a gaming system. This was a marketing thing done because of the video game crash caused by atari. This is why the NES in the US is so different from the Japan version. The crash never happened in Japan.

[@kumarp3074]

Famicom (Japanese NES) shells are much smaller. One reason is that Japanese companies were under the impression that in America "bigger is better". It's the reason why the Turbografx-16 is twice the size as it Japanese counterpart - the PC Engine. Even though they basically have the same internals.

[@kulmor69]

The way the cartridge goes into the slot

[@LinkProFacil]

I'm not much into the retro game scene but I've been collecting my game since I was 10 years old about 29 30 years ago. I still have all my sports cards miscellaneous carbs in comic books. More than I can count of each. They do have sentimental value and I haven't touched most of them for 30 years but your channel and channels like yours have motivated me to crack the boxes open and see what I got. I'm not much of a retro game collector so I'll definitely get rid of all those in the comic books most of the cards. Thanks for the nice videos and the much appreciated.

[@Pickers44]

Gimme that Dead Rising shirt @10:53 😭😭😭

[@CAdamG]

Genuinely baffled that two massive video game collectors don’t have a bit on them. They are so cheap and easy to carry lol

[@e3man01]

Congrats!🍻🎉 on getting a NES heavy hitter! Bonk is a wonderful series! I'd love to get a Gargoyle's Quest 2 CIB one day.

[@Smok3tr33]

anyone else notice thats actually the famicom gba micro with the mother 3 faceplate? lol you can very clearly see the 20th anniversary on the back.....

[@sellectivecollective90s]

I'm glad it's not just me 😂

[@Smok3tr33]

@@sellectivecollective90s it gets worse. They have made reproduction faceplate lol so this was potentially a whole ass scam

That was making my stomach hurt! I’ve been duped with a repro, granted the stakes were a lot lower, but it’s a horrible feeling.

[@uluvkhyle]

love the video man

[@bdillmore40]

The Bonk games are great, but without checking the board, and actually testing the game on the spot I personally would not have dropped that kind of money on it. Glad it worked out in your favor in the end Rick!!!!

[@denvernaicker8250]

mario vs mickey cross-over especially after the mario movie, that would be a great game and movie!

[@You-gk1el]

I was at game jam south last one they had in Huntsville Alabama. And there was a guy that had a big bowl of mixed n64 games for 5 a piece and Mario party 2 & 3. They were so cheap I asked if they were repros and he said he didn’t know they were just untested. But they looked questionable, so I got them and couldn’t stop wondering and did the same thing he did and found a guy with a gamebit drive to see and sure enough both were legit just super clean like bonk was so I got them cheap as hell I was pumped

[@BlankZone34]

Hey rick a cool idea doing something like creating collection of video game with just 10dollars.

[@SEXYMAN71778]

All my years growing up in the 80’s n 90’s playing Nintendo NES, i never played Goonies

[@vuln3r028]

I don't understand how you can go to a convention and spend all that money without having a driver to open cartridges lol unless this was staged to make it suspenseful

[@HUNNEYMONSTER]

Goonies 2 5 screw cartridge but the b-roll footage was for the Goonies that came out on the Famicom, they're not the same game though they're similar. I can't complain though one of the main reasons I bought a Famicom was I wanted to play that Goonies.

Man if that mother 3 faceplate was on the original red micro it wouldve been like 500$ cause the 20th anniversary micro does not go for 400

He didn’t even notice that. I thought that was going to be the mistake if he bought it

[@SoberJokR]

Should be with Riff more often

[@supyo1]

It baffles my mind you can’t tell that’s legit. Mint games exist… the pins being nice is not a red flag. Imagine a place that authenticates things for you and gives a condition number. Ita wild that a service like that is shit on.
