Back in the day I was excited for the next X-Files episode. Fast forward decades and now it's the Vlog Files 🕺🕺🕺

[@Sedifet]

Luke's got mad skills...7 years old? gtfoh

[@ryanpyle9822]

I know he doesn't like being filmed but you should make a video of luke playing all the way through ghost and goblins if he can beat it one day.

[@richardlynch329]

Welcome back to "Last Gamer" I've decided to add a second story on the games room...

[@theone2be33]

Richard Lynch or perhaps going "Underground!"

[@watittakes2264]

LOL

[@seagramrip187]

Best channel hands down 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘i gave up on my channel just focusing on horse betting :)

[@matttaylor1107]

I want a Last Gamer shirt

[@mabec]

In neon pink!

[@Truthfulnerd]

Who in the hell dislikes this video? Seriously, what did they not enjoy?

[@LastGamer]

Truthfulnerd can't please everyone 😊

[@theone2be33]

The JEALOUS Ones!

[@SP-cl5yp]

Maybe it's Mandy or Jess. I will not be surprised if one day one of them says: "What? You wanna move the stuff again?! The hell with this. Do it yourself" lol

[@sgtlegacy7]

Great video as always! How about "Fan station" for Whats in the box?

[@theconsolekiller7113]

Your son has some real skill. Good shit. Its great to see that he appreciates the classic games. I have the same issue. Now that I got the emulation PC set up again recently, and the huge backlog of unfinished 360,ps3,ps4,wii u games, etc prior to that, its difficult to focus on one game at a time. Even when new games just come out. There definately isnt enough time to complete everything, so I mostly play the games that stand out the most to me. I often go back to the older games for the challenge and satisfaction. Plus they have a distinct feel and gameplay was king back then. Love all types of games but newer and older games have unique differences over eachother.

[@Beaps73]

'Welcome to the Fan Zone......get ready'

[@LastGamer]

Beaps73 👍👍👍

[@M-NX]

nice to see that Luke knows his games..🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@DadLadsGaming]

Great stuff again....Luke is a retro ninja, brilliant.

[@Ekvan_]

hey joel, just wanted to say that your a great entertainer. i was just playing breath of the wild which is an amazing game and i got a notification from my phone saying that your video came out. i have never gotten off that game so fast in my life.

[@LastGamer]

Epic Ethe 🙏 thank you. Awesome game indeed

[@FireFlux73]

I think the should make a remake of the first Need for Speed with amazing graphics, but maybe with a few new tracks and cars and call it Need For Speed : Back to Basics ;) Always great video's and I always watch all your content. Thumbs Up!!

[@chiefmegadeth]

GT is just so outdated. and its very sad :( Forza 7 looks amazing! ill be ready when the X1X comes out. i want that Native 4k 60fps!

[@seagramrip187]

Love that final fight shirt 1 of my all time fav arcade game still remember when i seen it at the arcades hooked straight away didnt go to school lol

[@carlosb8130]

Great Collection, btw are you planning to have a VR gaming spot in your gaming room?

[@LastGamer]

Carlos Bello maybe. Not sure

[@homi7760]

You have the biggest video game collection i have ever seen and you have so much knowledge in gaming not only that you worked your ass off your whole life to get to where you are today you are awesome keep doing what your doing i look forward to the future of last gamer

[@itsaPIXELthing]

"What's in the Box: Stuff you sent me" ;) something like that! Another fantastic vlog/voyage! I can't thank you enough for sharing these videos! Besides being so inspirational, their such a stress-relief, if you know what I mean! And they just make me start my day with a smile, 'cause, when you upload your videos, it's breakfast time here in Portugal! As for racing games, I'm a huge fan! And I'm enjoying the recently released remastered version of Baja Edge of Control (that I absolutely loved on the X360) and WRC 7 (the official game of the world rally championship), both on the PS4! Check them out, if you can! Cheers! Have a great weekend!

[@TheMrDEd]

Your intro music always makes me want to play GAMES!

[@LastGamer]

Mark Edwards that's the idea 👍👍👍👍

[@TheMrDEd]

Did you compose the intro? I feel I recognise it but can't put my finger on where its from??

[@LastGamer]

Mark Edwards its in the credits. Virtua racing :)

[@TheMrDEd]

Ah man thats the one love it!

[@M-NX]

whats in this FANBOX???

[@theone2be33]

M NX that was my idea as well! Fanmail + Xbox = Fanbox! Or Fanmail + Playstation = Fanstation!

[@M-NX]

theone2be33 whats in the SupportBox???

[@mabec]

"Wha-What's in the Fan Box."

[@Brasop]

Definitely needs to be called simply ‘what’s in the fan box’

[@M-NX]

Brad Russell we will see what Joel says...😂😂😂

[@gwokymarla]

Call it Community Corner and maybe do Q&A inbetween each box.

[@sunnykashyap5436]

man you are the best but i wanna know are you PRO gamer of cource you are pro gamer

[@usmansm]

I remember playing Ghost n Goblins when I was about 4-5 years old. And it was pure torture! A kid playing such hard games when could barely read what was on screen was tough as nails. Watching Luke playing these games really takes me back, wish I still had my C64. Also a minor suggestion from my side, if its possible it would be nice to have 3 videos a week sometime. It doesn't have to be a regular thing, but since now you are doing Last Gamer full time, would be quite nice to have them thrice a week. Also waiting for the Story mode director's cut version to come out, and then continue with it please, eagerly waiting for that. My suggestion for the section are: 'Fan-boxing' or 'From Fans, with Love. (kind of like James Bond reference there). Keep them coming!

[@LastGamer]

usmansm like the suggestions. Can't do three a week. Need to focus on quality

[@BASHEM72]

Love your show Joel. I'm a collector as well. Nothing like your collection. But I have got close to 1000 games and counting. Keep the vlog files coming. We will be watching, from Jacksonville, AL

[@LastGamer]

BASHEM72 🙏 thank you

[@MacPaiin]

Damn, awesome skills Luke! Nice playing.

[@herbieass007]

I would definitely wear a last gamer t shirt!

[@grahamcomplete3663]

What's in the Mailbox? It basically writes itself

[@claudrapoza]

Fanmail Vlog, Fan's care packages

[@ardormor5945]

great video like always. Hope another tour when everything is finished in the room

[@TheUpliftingGuy]

The legendary Gran Turismo. The grandfather of all motorsport racing games. When Gran Turismo 1, 2, 3 and 4 were around, were was Forza and Project Cars? Exactly!

[@seagramrip187]

I gave up on gran turismo :)

[@HelloComics]

Thanks for the update, the room is coming along nicely. Your son sure is becoming a hardcore gamer, probably whoops the ass of anyone his age on these retro games. As for the new section instead of "What's in the Box?" I would just add a word and call it "What's in the Mail Box?"

[@Ace_of_DiscaL]

Dear Joel! I quickly came up with these names: FUN WITH FANS - FANTIME - TLG & FANS - CATCHING UP - SUBSCRIBER ZONE

[@watittakes2264]

I live for this show now Haha, favourite youtuber.

[@seagramrip187]

Forza 7 on xbox x mate

[@MrGretzky9966]

Would love the t shirt once they come out in 3x. What's in the box (Fan Edition) sounds good. The play station color will be awesome. I think need for speed will be big. I remember playing need for speed on the SEGA Saturn at my buddies house around late 90s

[@tyrizzo1]

You should call in "Final Fan Mail"

[@maniacsatwork]

Possible name - Fanstop

[@K1NGARTH3R]

Can your son, Luke finish Ghosts N Goblins? What's his top score! You can point press a bit more on level 4 when you get to the bridge after the initial jumps. I can't believe a 7 year old can play the game better than me haha. Better get back to practicing!

[@jaimeb.384]

My idea Fa/unboxing

[@1punch_man]

Rocking that final fight Shirt. The artwork is phenomenal. Luke's skills continue to impress.

[@DaveImagamegeek]

Have you tried Dirt Rally in PSVR it's awesome Joel. You need a lot of patience with Project Cars 2 .

[@Asmodeus1967]

Hey Joel. Just finished watching your vid. No doubt, GT will definitely be the most sought after driving game. Can't wait. LAST GAMER T'S???!!! Now THAT'S something I'd love to get my hands on. I'll be on the lookout for em. All the best for the week-end, and looking forward to your next vid. Cheers from Montreal, Canada & I wanna play like Luke. WOW... That's what should be on my Last Gamer T. lol

[@FlyingWalrus100]

My suggestion for the new segment name: - What's in your Box? - What's in the PO Box? Lol - What's in the Box: Last Gamers Edition - What's in the Box: MLG Edition (Mail for Last Gamer) I don't know if they're good, but I do know I will be getting one of those shirts! Also, painting the PlayStation cabinet/shelf gray is kinda dull compared to the rest (red for Nintendo, green for Xbox, etc.,...), Why not paint it with the colors of the original PlayStation logo? (Yellow, Blue-Green, Blue, Red). Just another suggestion. Love the videos Joel!

[@imusingsocialistmedia3014]

Like your t-shirt.

[@ArcadeObsessed]

Call it “Your Mail Room” Joel, Maybe Another great video keep up the great work 😀

[@arcadefever]

Ghosts'n Goblins is one of my all time Favorite Arcade game. I am very lucky to own the original arcade cabinet. But man, that game is difficult....Your son is a serious gamer Wowwww....i never been that far on GNG !!!!!

[@mackstertube]

I have always played Gran Turismo mainly as it wad on PlayStation and that is where I spent $5000+ on account driving rig. Plus I bought the rig for dirt 3. But now I have the Xbox one s I have been playing Forza horizon 3 as it looks beautiful and it's in Australia. However not havinga rig for Xbox is killing me as the first time you get a rig you turn into a kid again. It's amazing and of you but a good one it will be the best piece of hardware you ever buy. But I kind of want to get a rig but can't fit a second in my lounge for forza as I think gran Turismo got complacent kind of dropped the ball on the graphics side, or is it Forza just over took them, especially with effects. Forza might be more arcadey but Damn it is winning me over like yourself Joel. I want 3 rigs but have not got the room. Also like to update to hydraulic setup. Joel have you seen those new all on one hydraulic racing rigs that you can bolt to your chair. I think pagnian imports on Australia was selling them although they cost $2000-$3000 from memory. You would probably love one for your racing games since you love outrun etc.

[@Jsnow552]

You could always slap a blue sticker on fan boxes and maybe a red sticker on developer/contacts/friends boxes. It might help keep things organised, and you could then name the segment by colour. For example "Blue Box Treasures - Volume 1" or "Red Box Loot - Volume 1" Just an idea :)

[@ffkoteji]

Your boy is killin it on G&G!!! As for the gifts from the fans episode, what about "Where in the World?" or "Connecting with Fans" -- Sadly I can't think of anything catchy. Either way, excited to see the room finished, and some more arcade cabinet stuff whenever it comes.

[@1punch_man]

The back seat game watching and reactions cracks me up lol. I can totally relate. Edge of your seat stuff.

[@warwickbaines-bennett7721]

What's In The Box: Integral? or maybe What's In The Box: Special Missions?

[@williamgraham7153]

"What's in your box?" then go fan by fan think would be a cool way to do it. Final fight t-shirt is so awesome.

[@craigpilkington4323]

Does anyone know what Joel actually does (or did) for a living... this guy must TRULY be ultra rich? I've watched a lot of other 'game room' type videos and those guys have collections most of us could only dream of. This, however, takes it to a completely new level - this is almost museum game collecting for total system preservation.... absolutely astonishing collection!!!!

[@mfletcherg122]

I am probably the only one here, but NFS has my money. The new GT looks like rubbish and I'm a GT fan. I even repurchased GT4, because that is the best of the series. I have GT6 and all I can say is that it is better than 5. I will eventually get Forza 7 for PC. It looks amazing.

[@bunsenb]

looks awesome! that red color scheme on the boxes really does make it pop, excited about the new segment my box shouldn't be far away. I Like the idea of t shirts, personally the racing game I'm looking forward to if Forza 7 I've always been a big fan of Forza my favourite one of the series being Forza 4 so many great cars and tracks to pick from and great multiplayer on that game if its anything like that I'm sold. Horizon 3 was awesome too especially running at ultra on the PC with the 21:9 ratio support, racing games on an ultrawide screen is excellent

[@robh2100]

I can't wait for those shirts to be on sale, it'll be really cool to get one. I think the new what's in the box segment should be called "what's in the box: fan edition". Can't wait to see more of those videos.

[@aidan7933]

Hi Joel, amazing collection and love your videos. Just one question, where do you buy your games and gaming memorabilia from? You must know the best ways after amassing such a collection. It’s also great to see that such a massive and amazing collection is situated in Australia as well. G’day from Sydney and keep up the great work!

[@Shuey187]

The music during the credits had a moment where it sounded very Deep Purplish!

[@SpraykwoNTheChef]

Another top quality vid Joel. Always look forward to the beginning and end of the week because of Last Gamer. Nice work! You ever thought about gaming with viewers?

[@mackstertube]

It is so funny you say about our first world problem of having so many great games come out and not being able to finish them. It is my biggest thing with gaming and is the only thing that gives me a type of anxiety, although it is a good type of anxiety I guess. But you feel like you are either wasting money or not doing the devs justice. Plus then you go back and play them sometimes and you have to relearn controls but you are at the hardest part of game floundering a bit like a beginner. Also I have had to learn, although failing at it, not to worry about trophies as I waste time on that when I probably could have finished game but then go onto something new. This time of year all the great titles come out too. I think I an trying to only buy what I really want but that is still like 8-10 titles before mid November and there my bare necessities. Then this year COD WWII looks good January I am getting collector's edition Nino Kuni 2. Revenant Kingdom. Basically I will have to try and finish each game before the other comes out. But then I have the problem of being hooked on destiny 2 plus I always want to get Fifa. But Destiny 2 and Fifa demand so much time plus the driving games. I mean you can probably just buy Fifa, Destiny 2 and just play them for a year by themselves out even add in a driving game. But then what about the usual 20-50 games that come out that feel like a must play. It is the biggest problem on gaming today and with all the fantastic titles this year. I think one of the best years for a while. How do you deal with these modern title problems Joel. I mean you have another 22,000+ games on to of that? Doo you only buy a few modern titled or are you buying like 50 to 70 like some of us tragics. I mean I am buying titles for ps4, vita, Xbox one s, pc, new 3ds xl, nintendo, and even occasionally my phone since they are actually porting real gaming titles now like some final fantasy, some tell tale games, those wuite fun hit man games, Lara croft one, Terraria and other indie titles. I would like to know if this is your biggest stress since you have worse than all of us probably. At least you have your son to play them as well so you are getting great value out of games you buy. Would love to know how you decide on modern titles or of you just play a few then wait for others you want to play but wait for them to go on sale since it doesn't take long these days and they are cheap. I mean I saw Titanfall 2 for $25 yesterday and that's not even a year.

[@terryttx]

Nice skills Luke, future Pro gamer no doubt! :)) I'm happy to hear about new segment, the Last gamer army will find out a name for sure, at the moment I don't have any idea. Thanks for updates!

[@the1ucidone]

So my favorite game ever made is Solstice on the NES. I'm curious as to what your opinion is about that game particularly. Also, your son Luke is super good at Super Ghosts and Goblins. Very impressive.

[@streetmagik3105]

Whoa, Luke really is a Skywalker. He was tearing Ghosts N Goblins apart--awesome! It's cool to see someone younger respecting retro games. Your son is a beast. I remember him tearing it up on the Outrun 2 arcade in an earlier episode. Love it!

[@danielprice6184]

Forza 7 looks great, footage of the Xbox one x version looks stunning. Also looking forward to the new Gran Turismo game, hopefully won’t be delayed!

[@samgittins3522]

The different coloured boxes may well be a small change but I feel like it makes a huge difference, the red looks much nicer than the yellow so I'm glad to hear that you'll be having them colour coded for each section Joel. Look at Luke go! He's clearly really into Ghosts 'N Goblins there which is fantastic to see, good to see a classic game being enjoyed by someone from the younger generation. I feel old after typing that last sentence out, still... all is well, keep up the good work and again it's good to see all these small changes adding up to what will hopefully be an even brighter future for this already amazing channel.

[@striderreborn1467]

Ohhhh those kinda Glasses. lol I heard there was a Devil May Cry Liquior bottle and shot glasses but I didn't even know eye-glasses were a thing. That's a plus. :)

[@moveit987]

At least the shelves around the wall area would better have double depth.Then there would be more flexibility - e.g. put some related item infront of the games - and it would't reach inside of the room too much.Also it wouldn't have so much the feeling of "don't touch, otherwise it will slip out of the shelf".Additionally, you should compact the shelves within the room more. Then you can easily gain more space for more stuff.But of course ... don't forget to move the room around to a different location when completed ;)!

[@NerdyLaundry]

Great job as always Joel. Awesome to see Luke enjoying some real classics. Would you say he plays classic games more often than modern? You guys get in on so couch co-op together? They need to bring that type of gameplay back.

[@azorelow]

Just watched while having breakfast in Germany. I feel very well entertained by your videos. Thank you for that! :)

[@NicHills]

The new segment should be called "what's in the box - fan-mail" - can't wait to see the cool stuff you get sent!!

[@Video-Games-Are-Fun]

i beat ghouls n ghosts in the arcade in one life. never died once. only did do it the first time around as you have to beat it twice. age was 13 when i was at my peak.

[@rudii7]

Luke is a beast! haha I don't know how i finished most of the games i played in my youth. They were all so brutally unforgiving. Another great vid!

[@jNoxx]

Love the shirt on Luke, haha, awesome. WE NEED MORE.

[@DragoonLagi]

awesome that you have such great fans, :) and really like to buy a shirt. :)

[@Shuey187]

I like the idea of a "What's in the Box: Fan Edition", but I think a better name that would avoid confusion would be "What's in the Box: Supporters Edition". Thanks as always for letting the rest of us into your world Joel - it's always a joy :)

[@LastGamer]

Thank you for the support 👍

[@turntablesavage6490]

Probably Forza this year...project cars 2 looks kind of interesting.

[@vwgolfer1873]

I love Gran Turismo i was raised on that game lol but this one coming out is kind of a slimmed down version. I did like Project Cars 1 alot of people hate on that game but i think ill get PC2 and maybe get GT Sport later on

[@bryan87nc]

I would like to see another freeplay friday, and the Wheel of Awesomeness!! I enjoy the randomized pick and plays.

[@CaptSpeirsB744]

Joel, if you know of someone in a similar setting as yours that has received gifts from fans to what if any negative consequences they went through. I for one had two customers that gave very nice gifts and their expectations later, were way out of line and not really appropriate. Most people have good intentions, it's the few that can ruin your day. Great video as always, thanks.

[@kenkobra]

Hey I don't know why you don't have a million subscribers but let's get you there. Great job with the channel and kept it up!

[@ChrisShepard8122]

The new segment should be called "What's in the Mailbox" simple and clean. Falls right is next to your other segment title. :)

[@RetroReset]

Should be called Fan Box Files.

[@Gaz2023]

Hi Joel not messaged you yet but first of all wanted to say how much I love what you have done and what you do. the videos are looking really crisp thought at one point I was watching 3D as the room stood out so much. Keep up the good work and look forward to seeing more great videos in the future.

[@serbiangamer]

You should not be creating T Shirts with licensed logos and pictures. I would suggest to create your own brand, and get some team of designers, where they will create new merch constantly. I am sure a lot of people would be interested to buy T shirt with just Gamer logo on it, but done in many different variants, styles, colours, design etc. Only quality needs to be good. Good luck man!

[@LastGamer]

Milan Nedeljkovic 👍

[@vwgolfer1873]

Got lucky and was able to get SNES Classic Mini! Cant wait to play some throw back SNES soon

[@kenmys]

Luke is playing retro games like G&G... Raising him right. Appreciate the classics!

[@MrSnake9419]

Absolutely admire your son for still checking out the classics before his time, so many kids nowadays miss out on such good games because they're too focused on the new shiny games.

[@Gruzbee]

Fantastic video, as always. Love the Final Fight tee shirt.

[@jamesliddel6310]

Great channel. I would be careful who you give your address to though mate. Theres some weird people in the world.

[@slbvideoarchive]

Love these updates! Can't wait to see the completed project!

[@youratoolyabass]

Hi mate you should put a list out of games that you need for your collection so ya fans can see why we have that we could send to you. You shouldn’t feel strange about accepting gifts we are all fans and we would enjoy knowing that we are contributing to the collection

[@MrBen2177]

Luke got some insane skills. This game is hard as nails and he's owning it. Super inpressive. I like your parenting ;).

[@jackpottoys8616]

Such a great vid. Watching you watch Luke playing G&G’s was the best!

[@benoit1335]

+Last Gamer Does "Latest Gamer" (your son) finish the NES version of the game?

[@deadlymate9675]

my favorite pinball arcade machine was terminator judgement day have you got it or played it before

[@Dannydogmouth]

Special Guest Luke :) Great stuff guys. Could watch this all day

[@SuperHighTechGamer]

Like father like son:) If Luke can beat Ghost N Goblins, he can beat any game! Big Gran Turismo fan too. I don't know why but GT 3 and 4 on the PS 2 feel better than the later games....

[@LastGamer]

SuperHighTechGamer agree man on both counts. Love GT series

[@Mysticfateee]

That Final Fight t-shirt looks amazing!... i'm a little jealous. Although personally i would prefer a Sor2 t-shirt with the box art on it instead... still jealous though!. Watching you walk through the isle of Nintendo really does give you a feel of walking through a library... although instead of books its video games, haha. It is weird hearing that lots of people are sending you things... i would imagine there isn't much people could send you that you don't already have. It's kind of funny seeing a father watch his son play games instead of the other way around haha... Sorry if this comment is a bit all over the place but there was a lot i felt like commenting about. As for the name i can't think of something that's not generic... the only thing that came to mind was fanbox but that sounds a bit weird... maybe care package? sort of like a call of duty reference? unless that would cause copyright issues...

[@LastGamer]

MysticFate 👍
