[@Retro_Game_Craze23]

13 years and still rewatching The Game Chasers!

[@aquadonkey.]

And here i am again... ready to see the evolution of billy again

[@aquadonkey.]

And im back again

[@MetalJesusRocks]

Man, all the B-Roll you shoot for these videos is awesome! Great job!

[@jamcwa]

Man I love seeing gaming channels in each other’s comments.

[@Pimpeaux]

The best/worst part about rewatching all of the old Game Chasers episodes is that you can slowly see all of the good prices wither away from collecting.

[@vagrantender]

2024 and starting the rewatch once again.

[@TheGameChasers]

Thank you! Hope you enjoy the show

[@xturtlenerdx4361]

Rewatching the series/channel again! For some reason fall/halloween seems like the perfect time to go watch these again.

[@cutterhicks7203]

Back here again to watch em all in 2022

[@ESPINOZA316]

Today I begin my journey to re-watch all the episodes again. Game Chasers are like a drug

watched this series back in high school... showed up on my feed out of no where tonight, now I'm rewatching it at 33 years old. holds up so good, production value better than hgtv 😆

[@TechShanty]

Time to re watch the entire series from start to finish. Love this channel and never want to see it die. I found This channel about 6 years ago and it really helped me get through a tough time.

[@SlixkNixk305]

Wow guys this is great stuff! This is the best video I have seen on youtube in ages.... This is what KZbin is supposed to be about! Great job!! keep it up! Your production value is amazing!

Dude I'm seriously blown away at your production value and creativity. I have a feeling that you're channel will explode and get very popular soon. Keep up the fantastic work, and really an amazing job. More people need to know about this channel! =)

Everybody knows 2020 was a wack year, but now its 2021 and it’s our turn to rewatch the entire series!

[@im_an_alvani]

This show and this episode will forever and always be a classic. It opened up a new world to a lot of people and helped many (including me) through difficult times. Y’all don’t get enough credit.

[@PeteDorr]

Loved this video and can't wait for more! Its unique, fresh, and very well edited (I can only imagine the amount of hours put into editing this together)

[@darthgeorge28]

Just started rewatching this in 2024! My favorite retro video game channel!

[@sardaomalandraj]

I rarely rewatch stuff but DAMN this show is freaking awesome so, let's begin!

[@theCtrlAltGeek]

[@TheVirtualBomb]

Crazy that this was uploaded 10 years ago, glad to see the series is still going!

[@covereye5731]

Going to rewatch Game Chasers and playing every game they find in order on RetroAchievements.

[@pedroabicalho]

Two Legends are born...

[@SuperJTthunder]

I can't believe I just now discovered this show. I am an avid KZbin user and have been in love with classic games for a long time. Now I know where all my free time is going!

[@aintnoscrubbb]

Having a game chasers marathon and re-watching all the seasons!!!!!

[@variousspaghetti]

Not only is this video legendary....but I just scrolled through the comment section and it's an artifact of history within itself!

[@austinsaunders3821]

Happy 10th anniversary, Game Chasers! I remember watching this video that started it all when it first uploaded! Even now when I go back to watch the first two seasons it reminds me of simpler times in my life. Here’s to 10 more years of awesome game chasing adventures! :D

[@michaelpresswood]

Decided to start from the beginning and watch the entire series again.

[@RushedTurkey]

5th time watching the full series again!

[@scratches12mevideos]

Game chasers never gets old. Always great to rewatch old episodes leading up to new episodes

[@retreauxnintendeaux1663]

Crazy going back to Episode 1 again after all these years!

[@jamesklug1835]

You guys are fantastic! I own an automotive aftermarket company here in Southern California and rarely game. I have about 30 mint condition SNES games and am continuing my collection because of this show. Truly amazing work guys!

[@rebmon10438]

I had to go back and watch this to remember what Entertainmart used to look like. RIP Entertainmart.

[@patyellowbear9928]

I started watching You guys around 10 years ago and I started collecting games myself after beeing inspired by the show. I have around 500 PlayStation and other cinsoles games. It has been a great journey. Thanks

[@kommanderskombat3339]

I love this it's like an even nerdier American pickers.

[@ryanpetrak]

can’t believe this show is almost 12 years old… love seeing what these guys get even if it was so long ago. it’s like they’re shopping for me😂

[@Darkstar263]

I wish there were games shops as good as that here in the UK

[@SANDIEGOROOTS619TM]

Darkstar263 I know, A friend of mind live in arhem holland. He says the same, I end up getting stuff he wants, he pays me on paypal and i ship it off to him. There some stuff out there that we don't get either :)

[@Darkstar263]

LIAM64 I just looked it up. Looks nice but I don't live near that part of the UK I'm in the South West in Swindon. We have no independent shops here unfortunately. Though I have seen a company which has a few branches in different places. Called 'Planet Games and Gadgets' I've been to the branches in Bath and Cirencester and there's another one down on the South Coast in Weymouth that I want to try looking in too. Here's the full list of branches - Bath - 3 Branches in Bristol - Chippenham (Wiltshire) - Cirencester - Dorchester - Eastleigh - Frome - Newbury - Stroud - Taunton - Trowbridge - Warminster - Weymouth If anyone lives near those places, check them out. Occasionally find some old stuff there.

[@Darkstar263]

LIAM64 Years ago. We used to have a couple of independent shops here in Swindon but they all eventually closed down. Literally all we have now is GAME. The selection sucks in there. I suppose the only other places to look are pawn shops and charity shops but that's it.

[@tomapple64]

Darkstar263 there is good game stores everywhere... you just have to look for them... some stores aren't in the modern age... and dont have websites... or any info online about them.... a local store in my area is like that... but their prices... oh man... so cheap... when you are out and about... just keep a constant lookout for stores... you never know where they will pop up

[@LizardOfOz69]

+thekid20x6 at least not all your game shops are freaking rooms upstairs with no elevators. And being disabled on wheelchair.

[@thatstarlad1606]

Time to binge from the beginning again!

[@PastoKage]

And here we go, I'm gonna re-watch all the seasons for the fourth time :D

[@zombiejlt1]

Fourth time? I lost track of how many times I have rewatched this series over and over lol. Love the show love the fans!

[@HLGFreeman]

I am so glad to find this show!! Nr. 1 because I am a collector myself, Nr2. because you guys do a great format and Nr3. because I've such fond memories of all my working trips to Dallas/Irving scouting game stores and movie stores on my time off. Just have such fond memories of that place and it's great to see and recognize some of the places here (I'm from the Netherlands).

[@Guns7469]

This episode is the best comfort blanket ever. 👍

[@GabrielGarcia-su9po]

The good old days when it was fresh

[@JamesFernando1988]

I go back to watch game chasers more than any other youtube channel. Maybe my 5th or 6th complete watch through. Love it.

[@DaCanary]

Is my audio bugged or is my left ear just getting special treatment?

[@thiinkiing]

+DaCanary my left earbud does not work -- i only hear background music in my right ear.

yea something with the video same here

[@TheComicBoss]

Going back through to like and comment on every episode. Probably my all time favorite online show. Never gets old.

[@WrestlingWithGaming]

Dude, who are these guys? Lol. As someone who started watching beginning with more recent episodes a month or so ago, I gotta say that this is a great first episode. You guys have definitely grown and become more natural and entertaining but man, you really started off with super high quality content. The production values here are great for today's KZbin standards but 7 years ago? This was a real rarity on KZbin. Congrats on the well deserved success.

[@grandolddrummer]

I know, right? A true underrated gem on KZbin =)

[@Jesse__H]

I totally agree with you but ... honestly it kind of weirds me out. I'm brand new here, and I'm not sure what to think yet. On the one hand it's so slick and well-produced and -edited for youtube, especially for retro gaming content on youtube. But on the other hand it kind of has that "un-reality" of network reality TV, where the planned narrative is _imposed_ upon the actual footage and even if the footage tells one story (or no story), the post-production work hammers it into a completely different shape, to tell a different story - the story mandated by the show concept. And that's a style of filmmaking I don't typically enjoy. I dunno, maybe I'm being overly critical. I'll keep watching before I make any final judgments.

[@mrpan1270]

Let the binge commence. The early episodes are from a different world. And it's fucking beautiful. Best KZbin series of all time.

[@cutterhicks7203]

Watched this in 2011. Back again for like the fifth time in 2020.

[@MikeJustesenFilms]

Started to watch this series... SO hooked on it. Showed it to my brother. Now he's hooked. Fantastic..!

[@halfdarkshadow]

Well then, I heard about your channel so much from other KZbinrs I follow, word of mouth, etc., but I never knew what Game Chasers even did. I saw one of your recent episodes and I'm hooked. Time to have an adventure from the first episode, all the way through xD

[@SolidusGabriel]

Same thing here with me. I watched by accident one of their newer videos yesterday and got completely hooked on the style of their show. I gotta admit that I'm really surprised for not having heard abou these guys before, and I've been following gaming related content on KZbin for a really long time now, since the early days of AVGN.

[@zombiejlt1]

I dont know how many times I have watched this series from beginning to end and even though I want the dvds, I am still going to binge watch this show even more than I do others. And just in time for Game On! Hope to meet you guys soon until, binge watching even at work.

[@holler_if_ya_hemi5459]

3rd time starting from episode 1. It's crazy starting at the beginning again and seeing you guys with your hair so short haha.

[@TheGGShow77]

I just figured out that your theme song is the Street Fighter II on the SNES. I knew I had heard it before. Great episodes--they literally never get old. I re-watch them about once a month. Thanks for the monthly entertainment.

[@Its_Sweaty]

2021.. 😁

[@renkane3086]

Best show on KZbin. Hands down

[@dotgp]

Can't believe this is 10 years old wow

[@PeteSkerritt]

It's taken me way too long to start catching up from the beginning of this series, but I'm glad I'm here now. As cool as it is to hunt down games that we love so much from our youth, it's much more fun making those trips with friends for the experience. On to #2.

[@Chakeis]

Time for a marathon!

[@Prophacyx]

These guys are legends, gonna rewatch the whole serie !!

[@JamesFernando1988]

11 months later, im back again to start from scratch.

[@raypeterson3719]

3rd time watching the entire seasons. Good shit. Just don't stop doing this show. KZbin needs you.

[@Psychopathetica]

Had a weird dream last night I was game chasing with the Game Chasers and 8 Bit Eric. No joke O.O

[@HeathenDeluxe]

It's crazy to watch this 1st episode and then see the later ones. You guys became a lot more comfortable. Not to say you were awkward to begin with or anything. But you guys were a lot more stoic back in the day. GREAT SHOW.

[@ant-fan]

My left ear really loves this video.

[@gabewow]

One of the best shows on KZbin. Been binge watching all 5 seasons cant wait till the next one. Greetings from Panama city , Panama yes even down here you have fans keep em coming ill keep watching cheers

[@CYDeviant]

Is it just me, or is the audio very left sided?

[@aidanbernal]

Yep.

[@clay6394]

C it's the opposite for me

[@johnberg3032]

I love binge watching the seasons at work, well, listening to them. This will be the first year I can attend Retropaloza. Super pumped. Pumped for the movie too.

[@RoussDogg]

Anyone watching in 2019?

[@panzerdalek6965]

Alright, I'm hooked after i watched all the Retro Hunter videos I found these guys and I'm loving it! Great job on the awesome show!

[@magicmost1]

"i knew i had to have it" was born 4:00

[@TKedOut]

Man, I still remember the first time I watched this video. Weird to think that years later my channel is about the exact same thing. Still, I'd never have had the motivation to make videos about collecting with my friends if it wasn't for you guys. Thanks for that.

[@TechnicalCakeMix]

I have to binge the entire Game Chasers series from start to current day at least once a year, otherwise the Dark Side wins ...that's how that works right?

[@elroysworldFR]

Seriously. This show came out way too soon! We need stuff like this again!! 110% First time watcher but this really feels like one of those reality shows that should be on cable tv!! I love it!! Makes me want to make a show like this!! I wouldn't be half as good but damn.. It just looks like such a fun time!!

[@rickymason5643]

You guys looked so much happier in the early series

[@Night-Jester]

I'm starting the whole Game Chasers journey again...wish me luck! Rewatching everything in order.

Why is all their video commentary only coming through the left channel in this video?

[@StAlchemyst]

I've had this happen only a few other myself. All early or vids where some one is starting out or doesn't seem to be very experienced. Puzzling...oh well

Holy!? I can't fully express, HOW much i'm impressed with the raising quality of your productions. It's like you took a FFX crash-course in Hollywood and majored at a fancy art school in directing and script writing.... turbo style :) This was seriously TOP! - well planed and obviously pro-style executed. Impressive ! I bet it's just a matter of days until this is featured on KZbin's front-page :)

[@kobrien4121]

My ex-wife wanted her N64 + games back, i said no problem. I passed a lighter under the cartridges and poured soda into the console. She rang me back l8tr and said, i just remembered that they are yours so keep them

Just caught up with this episode.. Watched the one with tigger and the near Top-Loader brawl yesterday. Awesome show you guys! It's pure TV caliber entertainment. Props! Nice grabs on Final Fight 3 & even Fast Food.. You don't see that Atari cart in the wild, ever! Very cool game stores.
