I Spent $400 On Old Games At Retro Game Stores And...

As a man of the people, I have taken your feedback and re-directed our spending series. Today, we don't play the GameStop Roulette. Instead, we focus our efforts on spotlighting retro game shops that I found during my trip to Niagara Falls. While out there, I spent over $400 and got some sweet pickups.

I kinda like the 'surprise envelopes' and seeing the games lose or cracked cases or stickers where they shouldn't be. Sadistic I know but also entertaining to watch the anguish of a bad purchases, we have all been there

My jaw absolutely hit the floor when I saw what this video was gonna be. I live in the Niagara area and frequent these shops regularly!!! Each have their own charm and pros/cons. It was sureal to see footage of a game shop that's less than 5 minutes away from my house! Love you Matty! Keep up the great work!!!

Congratulations on your engagement! You became one of my favorite creators with Retro Rebound this year. I also watch the main channel but this is the content I really love. It's cool you went out to local game stores after the community vote, I appreciate that. There are some great pickups here! Obligatory shout out to the trails pick up, I have never even seen that version of sky before. I also stand with you on infinite; I think it's one of the best fps games ever. I actually just finished playing Tales of Xillia for the first time yesterday, so that was a funny coincidence for me that you picked it up!

Tales of Xillia is actually my favorite game of all time. I bought the same edition you've bought in 2014 and who could have known it will become my favorite game ever. At the same month Xillia 2 came out, so I bought it as well right after beating the first one, and loved it as well.

Issue with Bioshock Infinite is the game was late in the generation and was primarily designed around Unreal Engine 3 as opposed to 2.5 of the previous ones. It's so much smoother on remaster or pc. I have PS3 version solely as I have a ps move and I enjoy the motion controls

Oh it’d be interesting to play that on the move, how does it work are you on rails when you shoot ?

I never owned a PS1 in my life either. Kinda crazy how much we have in common. I feel so tempted every time I walk into Gaming Generations - the retro/new game store in my area. They usually have a PS1 in stock and I almost get one every time. I went in there on Friday and snatched up a beautiful copy of Battle Network 5 for very cheap. It was 25% off all used games so I ended up with almost $100 worth of games for $55.59. I set a hundred dollar budget for myself so with the leftover money I bought the DS version of BN5 for $38 and the Blade series from the Walmart $7.50 bargain bin.

Also the "Tales of" series is fantastic one of my favorite JRPG series but they are a huge commitment but I hope you get around to it cause I think you'll really like them.
