Pinball In Calgary, Arcade1Up Dragon's Lair Pickup & Toy's R Us Clearance - Store Surfin'! 4

Pinball In Calgary, Arcade1Up Dragon's Lair Pickup & Toy's R Us Clearance - Store Surfin'! 4 During my business trip to Calgary Alberta Canada I got to check out their biggest pinball selection at the Hidden Spot plus had a close call with a local. When I got home It was time to go pick up an Arcade1Up I had orde3red during a sale and then Scarlett and I try to find Toy deals at Toys R Us as an item that was marked as sold out on their website, may still be available in store and on sale. Then we hit up Newfoundland's biggest Redemption Arcade!

Welcome to my channel. I have been playing and collecting games since 1987 and I use this channel to share my passion and memories of gaming. I review games that I believe are under appreciated or wrongfully dismissed on Game Genie Reviews. Video Game Nostalgia is a fun series where I take a look at a topic from my gaming past and share games that come to mind from it. I also do Top 10 lists, of course I do...what else is on youtube right? Well I like to think I put my own spin on them because they are based on my life in gaming. Hope you enjoy the channel and always looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Everybody, Thanks for watching! Don't forget to let me know what you thought of the episode and what your favorite part was

[@TPRErik]

Gatorade was invented in my hometown, Gainesville, Florida. It is named after the Florida Gators football team. The more you know….. :). Thanks for the video.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

I actually did know that

[@gman95162]

I agree with you Mr B, today's arcades should be called carnivalCades, which are cool for today's kids but nothing close to what they were in our youth, arcades were dark, the only lighting came from arcade screens that lit up the place and the look was magical, instantly transporting you to an out worldly science fiction environment, as a teen the arcade was the place to be and meet girls :) , man....those days were AWESOME.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

I started going to the arcades as a 9 year old in 89 so i missed most of that but they still werent these redemption arcades thats for sure

[@gman95162]

@@MichaelBtheGameGenie yeah i was 17 in 89, but you still got to see the golden age of arcades my friend, I remember in the mid 90's a sit-down arcade by SEGA called Virtua On, It was one of the coolest arcades Ive seen. Arcade On Mr B, your videos are great.

[@carlo1132]

What a chockfull episode, even toy deals for Scarlett, nice! What a crazy story, with the stalker lol, glad you made it out ok!

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Me too, I have to stop being dumb

[@gamebit9063]

Man, Canada is like living in the 90s in the US a good way. You got a Toys R Us, electronic stores and malls with GameStop!

[@JP-xq7fo]

Canada is most definetly not living in the 90's culturally lol

[@JayPase]

Motion blur / slightly out of focus on some scenes. Still excited for a Dragons Lair 2 and Space Ace playthrough. Tip: don't loan your phone to anybody - you could have directed him to go inside to one of the establishments if he was experiencing an emergency

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

I have a gimble that wasn't charged this episode, next episode that wont be an issue

[@jayr33]

Jackbot is one of my favorite machines. Nice selection of Marvel carded figures. Those are actually pretty hard to find here in store.

[@Fenshiro]

Me and my daughter just went toy shopping and found the same wolverine action figure. $13 US @ target.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Nice work!

[@Bo_Knows_Tecmo]

Good choice on the retro 1’s. Although I probably would have went with the discounted ones. Looked like a fun time. Good stuff Mike B.

[@Grayson950815]

I don’t know if I’d ever make it inside The Brick if there’s a Toys-R-Us right next door!

[@olblueyes7670]

Looks like a fun day outr with your daughter. Nice pickups as well.

[@tedadamgreen]

Congrats on Dragons Lair, Wolverine and the Nikes!

[@tedtait3429]

Next time you're in Calgary feel free to shoot me a message. Hidden Spot is good, but there are better in Calgary and in less sketchy areas haha. Burn Block for instance has great tables and is in a really fun part of town.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Well less sketchy I am down for, this place was suggested by Pinball Map and Bee Kong, first time he has ever led me astray

[@tedtait3429]

@@MichaelBtheGameGenie Not even astray; just a bad encounter and first impression....Truthfully, that can happen in nice parts as well, just bad luck on your end haha.

[@andys_gameroom]

Glad you all were okay after the weirdo issue! One of my games on Jaws, I did the trick shot (hitting the bumper coming out of the launch Lane), it went down the left flipper lane and launched the shark fin target in the middle. I hit the fin target and it drained right down the middle. I was kicking ass for about seven seconds there. Jaws is a seriously fun table.

[@chrishillier6348]

Great video. The black and white picture is great looks like an album cover.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Always fun to see the adventures of ScarlettB. Never loan your phone to Danny Trejo or was that Johnny23? Been a while since I've seen Con Air.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

lol noted brother

[@decadentdave]

That time Michael B got accosted by Danny Trejo 😂

[@maskranger38]

I got the xmen 97 Wolverine

[@TheCornerCade]

Mike I can fix the motion blur, hit me up.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Thanks Danny!

[@edt1138]

You'd like to get your hands on Elvira again? I think she might be too old for you. Poutine is better than a burger anyway. Lance never had any interest in the ticket games, whenever he would play something like skee-ball and win tickets he always gave them to his sister.

[@pc5440]

Elvira doesn't like men either. lol slow your role

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Lance sounds like a good kid. Hey Ed, listen man if i still had a shot at Elvira age and all i would still take it

[@pc5440]

@@MichaelBtheGameGenie deleted my reply? unsubbed immediately.

[@user-xp8sv9dx5b]

You want to collect the X-men 97 figures.

[@kevinclauson7613]

great video, everyone who sees this comment skip to 15:34 for iconic arcade

[@JamesHatesEverything]

What framerate are you shooting at? Enjoyed the video but was killing my eyes in parts.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

30 FPS, i dont know what is going on with this phone. I have a Gimbel which i'm hoping helps going forward

[@JamesHatesEverything]

@MichaelBtheGameGenie try kicking it up to 60 fps, make sure your video export from your editor matches your framerate. Should help eliminate the ghosting.
