Even as your editor….I can still watch this video and enjoy it after spending all day editing it. Great work on storytelling man!

[@mjdf122]

Caleb wasn’t around for Pokémon red blue yellow gold and or silver haha much love and respect to you both get those games

[@jaxxonvideogameresale]

Lol I'd feel the same way

[@Jappe132]

Hi Riff! I hope you realize that if you don't have friends that doesn't automatically mean that Caleb wouldn't have friends. From now on I will say that Ricky and Pixel Game Squad dudes are paid actors. The acting ain't that good so you should pay them more. I love you guys

please chill with the switch clicks i beg

[@eightbitace1234]

Usually if GameStop gives you a crap case for a game even if the display copy has art, they’ll give the display art back to you if you ask.

[@Rubiksguy]

Your sit on the lawn and chat near the end really got me in the feels. You seem like youd be a great guy to be friends with. Coming from a Pokémon fan and Yugioh reseller :)

[@TrillDLA368]

Not a collector huh. "ReSelLeR"

[@Chris-hs8pc]

No money out of pocket doesn’t mean spending $240 just to get an expected profit of 60..

[@nathanielarchibald901]

Agreed. These videos are entertaining but the math does not check out

[@ImmortalLemons]

I thought this video would be Caleb robbing a gamestop

[@200zero]

5:26 that monster hunter figure at THAT price is such a steal. actually its robbery. Two years ago i paid 433$ for it and recently checked on amazon to 480 - 800$ today

[@cubedstudios]

I really find ur videos useful… I am a collector and you live in my area. Sometimes you make videos at places ive been and pickup games that I was gonna go back for lol.

[@btread8875]

How is Phoenix Resale helping you here? 🤔 He is taking games that you could have bought cheaper and selling them online for more.

[@cubedstudios]

@@btread8875 the stuff that he doesn’t pick up plus he exposes me to new places to shop

[@btread8875]

@@cubedstudios Are you able to find anything at those new places? I have found that resellers in my area wipe everything out and all that is left are sports titles and other unwanted titles.

[@rippleffect1396]

Love the videos man!! It’s so fun to see all of the limited run Switch games you’re able to find. Also, looks like we live in the same area! Super cool! Keep up the great content!

[@JacklostYedmore]

This makes me really miss physical video game stores :( The last ones here in Norway closed in 2020 :(

[@giganticmoon]

I feel bad, I love these places just to look at games, then, I strike, and BUY every single last one in stock. My wallet hates me, I had a 540.00$ dollar budget, wasted on switch games-I’ll name all 12 games, the Sony and Xbox games are excluded. Anyways, I also spend too much time buying physical games-Still, I feel bad.

[@one_with_kevrything9825]

Sounds like you might have a business to start, friend.

[@scottjohnnyhelgemoaune2951]

I remember when Trondheim had both GameStop and Platekompaniet at the same place😔

[@ditwitt2380]

why?

[@abdulnasirbushra6049]

Youre very close to Finland in here all Prismas have atleast like 30 - 40 different switch games and Gigantti has even more with some on sale for 30 euros if they are kinda random (youll find some great ones for 30 like sonic mania or crash bandicoot n sane trilogy)

[@sho6227]

Riffs bits always make me crack up and smash the like button I swear. It's like his comedy reminds me to like the video or something XD

8:30 I might be crazy, but I can hear the opening of super mario bros thru the skips and landing of the case hitting the ground.

[@raff3509]

I love editor Riff's jokes, they really add to the videos lol

[@mzstylermzstyler9924]

Caleb I really enjoy your content! The heart-felt pokemon talk at the end really resonated with me much love ❤️

[@matthewbockwitz6107]

I was able to get the Pokémon oled switch and the games. So excited to play them.

[@SteveSwanson88]

When u buy a game to resell/flip on Amazon or eBay, u don't know if or how long it will take to find a buyer. U could sit on a game for a while and have to lower your price to sell it, thus losing profit. Then u have to package up and ship all of these games out which is a hassle. U have to spend hundreds up front to buy these games in the expectation of being able to quickly flip them for a profit. It's a large initial investment that may or may not always work out as intended. I will only do a few game flips per year. Mostly during the holiday period.

[@nathanielarchibald901]

Thank you. I was thinking this same exact thing.

[@veganpenguin9857]

You don’t know what it means to me to see that midnight releases are still a thing, my greatest gaming memory was waiting for the original black ops since it came out on my birthday in November, you triggered a happy memory

[@JoeGrizz1y]

Midnight releases happen all the time. Except they aren’t really at midnight. It’s always like 9:30-10:30 when the go live. They just aren’t special anymore cause you could digitally download the game and get it the second it unlocks. Another reason is pre-ordering has ruined it. As their is no problem getting your hands on one as you are pre-purchasing which adds to the desired amount. Plus there has never been a game that absolutely blows the hype through the roof to where people fight to get a copy. Back then, it was always the fear of missing out and possibly waiting to be told that they ran out of stock. I think the last year I ever had trouble buying a game on release was probably around 2012/2013. Games are just way more accessible today, and 99% of games are overhyped or garbage at release. 😂

[@pancakefaith3199]

I have been watching you and trying to start reselling any tips you have inspired me to start :D

[@Shin3y]

My GameStop didn’t give me the enamel pin, they always forget the preorder bonuses, but it’s the only GameStop within a few hours of my house. (Also I thought the games were pretty good at least, performance was a minor issue for me)

[@_JerryBoi_]

I don’t know if you’ve been told this before, but you could say “I’ll catch you guys... on the switch”. Great video!

I did when I was a teen but yea I don’t see the point because i went home and played the game quickly before going to sleep because I was tired from being out in the cold waiting in line.

[@cubansupreme]

As of me posting up this comment right here, I just started playing Violet but I haven't unlocked the online stuff yet. I'm kind of ticked that the Union Circle (4 player co-op in the overworld") only works with people in your Switch friends list or with random people you send a Link Code to somewhere online (and vice-versa). Plus one of the new Pokemon requires you to level it up to level 39 while another player watches you in a Union Circle in order to evolve it. What places online would be a great place to find people to do Union Circle sessions with?

Way 2 soon to say this so stfu, I hated sword and shield but I never immediately hated on the game in the first week because that’s not enough game play to hate it. If you played it fully already then u clearly rushed it and couldn’t fully enjoy it

[@smilehunterohring]

I see why you say this but for me and another friend we had an blast messing around in the world

[@cherrybarcia7712]

It’s the not the gameplay isn’t fun, it’s that the performance issues are much worse than usual. I cant play for 5 minutes without watching characters move in 20 FPS or environments begin to glitch out. The game is fun, but it’s not fun to play when it’s this messy

[@MrMonkey2150]

@@smilehunterohring you can’t say it’s bad after this little amount of play time, it’s not fair to the game since you obviously wouldn’t be giving it a chance. So this guy is probably just a troll or a little kid

[@ImTheGibby]

In our city 2 cops found 3 guys doing coke outside our gamestop while waiting for Pokemon Scar/Vio. They tried to fist fight some guy for his double pack. All three of them got hauled off in the paddywagon for attempted assault, robbery and under the influence of narcotics. It was kinda funny tho watching them try to get ahold of the guy with the double pack while being dragged by 8 cops 😂

I dont get the issue with the monkey ball game. Why didnt you ask them to give you the other case? Thats what i do at gamestop and they usually change it out for me
