I said I wasn't going to buy these games but I lied. | Game Collecting Pickups Ep. 10

[@Mallerd]

I always appreciate that you never really have anything bad to say about the other consoles and their generations. Obviously your preference goes to Playstation which you really love but you still casually collect and like the other consoles. I dont know but I feel the Game Collecting Community can be kind of Elite in their console preferences and its nice and refreshing to see you embrace everything in some way

[@VintageFiendClub]

I’ve always been the same way. Playstation was my first favorite but I have a special place for Nintendo and Xbox / PC.

[@FaLaN69]

Ryan's the chillest person ever to exist.

[@IvailoNachev-xc3zu]

Personally I think this is how it should be done. I was mostly a PC gamer for now but I still like playing with consoles. People should think what he is doing takes a lot of time, space and money. Currently I own one desktop computer I built myself recently, one newish laptop, one old desktop pc (Windows XP era) and laptop, PS3 and PS5. My first consoles I had when were NES and Atari because my family was too poor for something like PlayStation. I feel like I have too much electronic these days but I still look at cheap handhelds instead of using my phone which I have two of them. I think people these days spend too much time looking on KZbin someone else playing or engaging in petty fanboy arguments over games than ACTUALLY enjoying them. Honestly sometimes I miss the pre-internet and 2000s internet times before current corporate cable television internet.

[@Luhiner]

console wars is just an internet thing for children not for adults

[@IvailoNachev-xc3zu]

@@Luhiner You would be surprised that I have seen people still doing this in their 30s. I have to agree that the console wars between PS3 vs Xbox 360 or Nintendo vs Sega was something that 99.999999999999% of people didn't care and lived on in very few people's heads. Now it is modern to say that video games are no longer fun because they think only AAA games matter and now after all these years they discover that maybe they should look after AA games more. Then they pick up their phone and start playing their microtransaction filled waifu gatcha game and forget about it.

[@washbrook]

"Gets me jazzed up downstairs" Greatest sidenote of the year. 😂😂😂

[@Eski813]

Ya like jazzzz 😏

[@jdsawyer7895]

💀💀

[@Fast_Travel_Gamer]

He listens to jazz in the basement while he plays the games...

[@Chakeis]

I love seeing you opening packages, it's my favorite videos, especially the mystery boxes!

[@GreatBeardofWisdom]

When you put that Wario game in the plastic case, only to adjust it to make sure the flap is on the back to keep it out of view. That right there is the sign of a true collector. Big props to that. I'm a CD collector and the lengths you sometimes have to go in order to preserve physical items are lost on a lot of folks. But yeah, that attention to detail, chef's kiss my friend. Appreciated.

[@The_Ghost_Gaming]

I was yelling internally when the box protector was on backwards. Thank you for fixing it 😂

[@6door6four96]

Gave me an aneurysm lol

[@princegroove]

Collecting is fun and interesting for sure. I recently started buying games for the Wii and Wii U while prices are still reasonable.

[@SweetKingTanner]

One of my favorite series

[@Yomismo28]

I have always had this recurring childhood memory from time to time of me playing a certain game for the ps1 back when I didn't even know how to hold a controller. I never knew the name or how to look for it. When I've seen you holding 40 winks I inmediately thought of this game. I looked up the demo on youtube and that's it, I have finally found it after so many years. Thank you so much!

[@HUNFakeDeath]

one of my favorite series for sure :D thanks for sharing your passion with us :)

[@type2red]

Congrats on the house Mystic and all of your success! Great channel love your content man.

[@Gmp141]

“Gets me jazzed up downstairs” haha good one Ryan 😂

[@AlmostCoolGuys]

Theres something soothing about these videos. Also a good source for ideas of what to collect.

[@grahambaker7563]

Another great video, Ryan! And a chance to see a good portion of your game collection behind you!!

[@jorelplay8738]

that’s so nice to hear that you bought the house you moved in!

[@bravesnut55]

These are honestly my favorite KZbin videos rn. Binged all of your previous vidoes

[@dudefromtheearth]

I really enjoy the unveiling of these classic games you order Ryan. I use to feel like I was alone before when I still only had a PS2 up until November last year when I finally got a PS5! I just stuck with buying PS1 and PS2 games because there was so many great titles made during that time frame. I have paid as much as you pay for new game for the classics because I wanted the games that are like new if not new and stopped buying as many games stating they are in very good condition because you take your chances when you do that. It's a real thrill to buy classic titles whether for PlayStation or other consoles. I get it and oh yes the magazines are really a trip down memory lane! Their really a part of history now and still a way to learn about more great classic games.

[@damascus6480]

My copy of Pixel Remaster came in last week, I forgot about it and it sure was a nice surprise when I got home from work. Unfortunately I couldn’t get the North American version.

[@XBFNoodles]

My dad surprised me with a Playstation very close to launch when I was about 8. He had just gotten a great job after going to electronics school at night for several years. He bought the longboxes of Jupiter Strike, Shockwave Assault and the regular cases of Pandemonium and Crash Bandicoot. I sunk so many hours into those games. We eventually had to move to BFE Nebraska and that Playstation helped me cope with having no friends for several years after the move. Anyways, just discovered you, sir. I'm enjoying the videos. In a world of over the top, boisterous and borderline annoying video game youtubers, your demeanor and style is just really chill. Thanks for the content and I look forward to more!

[@ferryshuttlex]

yes, this series is really fun. glad to see a new episode!

[@anna-kb1cu]

Love these type of videos Ryan! Keep going with the incredible collection :)

[@y87_99Firebird]

As someone that also just moved I'm getting back into my usual ebay buys slowly.

[@Real_Sgt_Tom]

Some great pickups and love getting older games Frogger that still play good today as they were intended back then.

[@Tation16]

I recently got Frogger temple of the frog with the manual for about $5. That is one game from my childhood. When I saw the cover and gameplay I knew I had memories of it. Now I want to get some CIB GameBoy games.

[@Benjamas-]

I wish I could get the magazine subscription for a reasonable price in Australia, but the shipping is 2 to 3 times more than the magazine itself, which is not a reasonable cost for shipping in my opinion. Good haul as always Ryan.

[@zombl337og]

not a collector at all myself (love my digital STEAM library and FREE Epic Store Games Library lol), but im glad theres people going for 100% collections of consoles that can be literal museum exhibits

[@NoonDragoon]

I totally feel you on games coming back unexpectedly. I bought Baten Kaitos Origins for a decent price and then like 2 weeks later Nintendo announced an HD collection of the games. Still good for my GameCube collection at least!

[@ItaChu787pr]

5:05 WHAT?! LOL

[@GMMXX80]

So, the Wario Rumble for the GBA, yeah, there's people that are gonna say "What a stupid price to pay for that game" but, I'm telling you, there's games that I paid a rediculous sum for at the time but I'm glad I pulled the trigger on because compared to what they're going for today, Id be having to pay A LOT MORE so as time goes on you won't be kicking yourself for paying that much and you'll say "Man, I'm glad it bought it then." The ONE thing I'm always mad at myself for not buying is I had a chance to get the Fortune Hunters Edition of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. It was pathetically priced what the going amount for it was, but I didn't save up the extra money I couldve to buy it and I regret it because as absurd as the going price was then, now it's completely out of this world so, you'll get over it and find in a little ways down the road. A waste of money? Well, yes, money like this is always better spent on investing in a family rather than things thatre gonna turn to dust eventually anyway, you can't take em with you but, while you're waiting to become a dad, not bad

[@Nades_]

Other than the prices I'm really enjoying collecting retro games. Was gonna get a Dreamcast but don't wanna over do it.

[@TucBroder]

Agreed. The Gamecube and PS1 is a nightmare here in Denmark. So expensive xD. Good thing I can buy loads of PS2, PS3 and Wii games on the cheap :p

[@Nades_]

@@TucBroder Resident Evil games on the older systems are going for at least £50 here in England, crazy prices.

[@cloud_spiky7]

Immediately went on Play Asia and bought the FF Collection for Switch! Thanks for the tip!

[@MrCell333]

Yes! I missed seeing these! When I seen this video pop on my feed I clicked on it so fast!!

[@GameJunctionMedia]

This is so relatable. Lol Keep up the great work on the vids!

[@JacobNelson2014]

This is so smart to do this so you can write off all the games on your taxes!

[@Agentunderfire]

Yea this year for gaming has been really impressive! I’m on Street fighter 6 right now (Amazing btw) Gonna dive back into Dead Space (Great!) RE4 Remake is in the backlog (Can’t wait) FF16 already pre-ordered! (Excited). Now looking forward to Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, MK1, Assassin’s Creed Mirage and Alan Wake 2!

[@TISUAL]

Oh man I can't wait to start collecting for ps1, ps2, GameCube, SNES, N64, but definitely NES. Right now I'm on PS4 and ps5, but I should also be collecting for PS1, ps2, & especially GC(since my mom got myself one for less than $50)...the games are just so high. At least for GC that is...looking forward to mainly GC exclusive games if I start collecting for that console. Mario kart is a must!

[@TheatreKiller]

My boy is back! These videos are wonderful for poor people like me who live through you haha

[@styleshbk]

Fun fact: Steve Carell is the commentator for Outlaw Golf.

[@hermes_job_observer144]

Do you have Opoona for Wii? It's an interesting one you don't hear too much about.

[@expensivecardboard]

Awsome pickups. I still need to get Wario Lans shake it for the wii. Maybe this video just convinced me to pick up a copy this weekend.

[@Chmima]

Outlaw Golf! Yes! My girlfriends family and I had weekend tournaments that revolved around that game! 😂😂

[@jerrym8532]

Hey Ryan! Great vid! Would be really cool if you put a very short clip of gameplay for each game unboxed, for us to have an idea.

[@bigup5543]

love it as always. keep tweaking your mic and room acoustics. I really notice the bigger size of your room and you sound so much more quite. a good VST compressor could possibly help.

[@CalvoV8]

"Gets me jazzed up downstairs"- Mystic

[@Grimlydemise]

My 1st thought with the protector was "Why did he put it in there with the flap covering the front", glad you fixed that

[@docicusalignjon]

This video's title is me the very second I get my paycheck

[@MajorPanda_KD]

"it gets me jazzed up downstairs" Dude...

[@LordFarKwadth]

Why you gotta attack me like that! “Those cases have sicklecell” ouch 🤣

[@hopefullyhigh]

Love a good melissa cameo 🐱

[@wmv8996]

"Move over Mario." Makes me think of "Goodbye Halo" on the box of Tribes for PS2.

[@TheGamerNerd025]

7:17 that reaction LMAO

[@chansemorris866]

I used to do the same I kept all manuals and box art when I sold to GameStop they would get disc only from me. Happy I did that

[@Scott-M1]

I never understood how when discs became loose in their cases, the manufacturers couldn't just solve it with a simple foam washer or something, to stop the disc from unclipping in transit? So many times i had scratched discs due to this in the past.

[@Mckylan]

I wasnt expecting to see 40 winks. That game is underrated and one of the early gaming memories I have is from this game.

[@IrnBruEnthusiast]

My Final Fantasy collection just arrived today 🙌

[@romxilda]

Melissa in the thumbnail is the cutest!

Wish the magazine collection charity had a UK equivilent, £50 montly just for shipping, couldnt find a cheap alternative over here :(

[@Bigsteve187]

Gets me jazzed downstairs dude what a saying 😂😂

I'm the same with vocaloid albums man, now i have so many that i can't even count them (that moment when you get obsessed with collecting stuff)

[@23.shkola.63-t7i]

wait, they have albums?

[@RaspoutinesGhost]

I remember getting the Frogger mini cabinet that Coleco put out, I played that thing into the ground.

[@landmonkey22]

Sony should support this channel!

[@MrBoop4345]

If you're looking for an acrylic protector for your wario twisted, you might get in contact with rose colored gaming. It's a company out of Cleveland, Ohio that makes stands and acrylic coffins.

[@Tjoeb123]

I played 40 Winks once as a child. It was pretty good! In fact I really wish it got a PSN release here in North America.....

[@carston101]

I remember playing elibits on my sisters DS. Didn't really understand the game too well at that time but I had a lot of fun with it! Still have the game cib, just no DS to play it on lol.

[@greencontroller9692]

I love these videos, thanks Mystic

[@DankerTVTimeCapsule]

40 winks is coming back Ryan. pc has it on gog, and it will be on the Evercade handheld.

[@icen5336]

Can confirm, Elebits does indeed live rent free in my head

[@matteogilles4238]

On fire today! Great commentary.

[@xrhaiden7849]

Outlaw golf is one of the best lol. It’s also available on the original Xbox

[@fivejedis]

Can't believe how crazy Wario Ware Twisted has gotten in price. I remember buying it at some thrift store for like 8 bucks. Obviously no box but even just the cart goes for crazy money.

[@geoffnaylor3734]

Greatest regret lending that game and not getting it back

[@MilkWasABadChoice17]

7:18 Literally the best thing to say. Period.

[@wmv8996]

You've gotta be the most passionate playstation fan ever. Which is made even better by the fact that you aren't and have never been some crazy fanboy. You're always optimistic about gaming in general and call out Sony and others for their dumb decisions and praise the good ones.

[@CStove]

Great grabs! I've had 40 Winks sitting on my shelf for years and have yet to try it. Let us know how it is!

[@JeskidoYT]

who knew, IN A BIZARRE TIMELINE, a FINAL FANTASY game compilation costs more than GODZILLA GODZILLA. WHYYYY

[@Moe_A5]

I thrive for these video updates!

[@aqlandmirrorvideogamerandc2983]

The GameCube games pikmin 1 and 2 are kind of experience. But now they are coming to the switch in physical form of a double pack. Never played pikmin and I'm happy that the physical is happening. So I'll get it. Plus super mario RPG is getting a remake on switch physically and the og snes game isn't cheap.

[@Supersmallchibiwolf]

I love these pickup videos they are interesting and fun. I can't wait to see what's the next games you plan to get. Also how many games until you finish your game retro game collection ? do you make a list or add to it as time goes on ? Cool video. ^_^

[@gaganmalik4421]

Damn you lucked out on that Final fantasy collection. Nice

[@GrapeJuiceCXX]

He did. They were all gone in like 3 hours. Collectors Editions were the last ones to be sold. The normal switch version was gone so quick.
