The Game Chasers Ep 55 - Garage Gaming

[@the_echoYT]

Chris's transformation since becoming the cameraman really is something. He goes from "yeah I guess I'll film for you" to like Game Chaser Jr., and that's super cool

[@SuperMastodon]

+The_Echo I know! He quickly became one of my favorites of the show now!

[@KFXG]

Best Game Chasers story arc :P

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

For the record I'm the chode who got the Warcraft 2 on Saturn from Billy ^__^

[@snesie7172]

+AlphaOmegaSin eric looks stoned

[@largeowl6024]

+snesie 717 these guys don't get stoned they just have fun the ole fashion way.....gaayymssss!

[@dannyboycomics]

+AlphaOmegaSin Yeah, figured that was why you were in the episode

[@DaCanary]

+AlphaOmegaSin Theres a good chance if someone mentions a chode that It's you they're talking about. Well you or eric.

[@n1ntndo133]

I so saw that coming!

[@dogmd7]

For those who are wondering, Galaxy Games has had a "for sale" sign outside of its building for months now, with no word about reopening on Facebook page since the start of the pandemic. The last post made stated that they would be "closed until further notice" in early March. That was the final post on their social media page. Seems like the store is closed now unfortunately.

[@TheGameChasers]

I hate everything about that

[@Flashback_Funhouse]

@@TheGameChasers Judging by their Facebook page today, looks like they're back in business. Time to hop in my saucer and fly to Roswell!

[@willnox1]

2022 Annual "Rewatch every video" from The Game Chasers from the start of the channel to now. Thank you reliving an amazing past. "That's a really good game" Chris is such a good dude

[@kellystoller7225]

This comment may never be seen, but @the game chasers are the reason I started collecting again. This episode reminded me of why game collecting/chasing is so much fun, just watching Chris and the guys talk about all their gaming memories brought back so many memories of KB Toys/Software Etc/GameStop/etc. If you guys ever read this I wanted to say thank you for inspiring me and reminding me of all the fun times.

[@travisj.1938]

Dude totally forgot about Software Etc!!! Man nostalgia is a heck of a drug!

[@SlyBeast]

Man, when Chris was talking about what video gaming is all about, I raised my beer.

[@ZephPlayz]

Been watching this show since season 1, love it, keep up the good work :D

[@mtgdoss73]

chris is the star of the show these days i think.

[@Guns7469]

Absolutely, Chris is bad ass, and hilarious!

[@puddingkartell5453]

+mtgdoss73 yoll

[@SnackCannon]

I love when Jay complains about catching himself slipping, basically. I start cracking the fuck up. He gets so upset when anyone finds anything decent and he didn't see it first. I also think he undermines Chris's knowledge of the games he runs into. Don't be like that, man. That's the way game chasin' go, right? Hahahaha EDIT: This is honestly one of my favorite episodes ever, and shows just how much Chris really loves chasing, too. He's probably my favorite Chaser, ironically, considering he chases the least (and was never a Chaser). I always relate to the games he picks up more than the rest. Thank you guys so much for the work you've put into this series. It's become my favorite gaming series on KZbin. Much love from Kansas City.

[@KewieCRC420]

I like how Billy's cousin passion for gaming really came out on this episode. Thanks for sharing those stories and please share more. Keep up the great work guys.

[@lorenzovegar]

Anyone else hold back tears while Chris was talking about being cameraman and talking about memories??,this show just keeps getting better and better!,thanks guys for making this! Chodes!

[@sdzero]

Chris's game setup in his garage is pretty freakin' sweet. I like this episode. Thumbs up!

[@divefraggle]

That projector image quality looked surprisingly good for such an old game to be blown up like that. Very cool. This is the best episode of the season so far. I love this show.

[@RetroRescuers]

This episode made me smile. One of the best in a long time no big price games but a bunch of awesome REAL moments, the reason i started watching the show in the first place. :)

[@interghost]

The whole part with Chris at the end was great. It's cool to see him finally getting into all the gaming and reliving the past too. Cool prices on the games from Galaxy too... again!! Thanks for the episode guys, cool as always ;)

[@thebosshow]

Has to Be one one My favorite episodes EVER ! very sentimental and special . everything has a return and Chris did an AMAZING JOB getting that case set up perfectly . everything worked out better than expected and made for I'll say again , one of the best episodes to grace my computer screen . Keep em rolling Boys :) cheers

[@primemover80]

Agreed

[@phunq9087]

this is the greatest thing ever, you rock Chris. Chris you deserve to be embraced so hard by the retro community!

[@talleyrandxlll7037]

That projector setup is brilliant. Well done Chris

[@Chewyness]

This one was a little bit of a heart warming episode, I liked it.

[@travisj.1938]

Totally agree gives ya the warm cozy blanket feeling 👍

[@AndyUpNorth67]

Episode 55. I can safely say i've watched all of them, plus the specials in a week or so. There's some good entertainment on this channel.

[@athalosgallant]

This is actually one of my favourite episodes, seeing Chris growing into a full-fledged Chaser. You can see how much that shelf means to him, so good on Shady Jay not being Shady.

[@chriss.9398]

We definitely need an updated game room tour from billy and jay!

[@Gabaghoul1987]

6 years later, still as entertaining as ever.

[@donny4182]

Man those prices in the Roswell store, amazing!

[@surfthestreets86]

indeed

[@youtubasoarus]

+Vidja Gamer That's 5 years ago pricing around here. O___O

[@nerdcave6797]

You could say they're.... Out of this world...

[@donny4182]

Hiyooooo!!!!!!!!

[@mrpan1270]

It's insane. Jay got. a $25 factory sealed Ocarina.

[@mosenpai8216]

Another great episode. Very heart warming episode indeed. Couldn't help but shed a few manly tears.

[@travisj.1938]

This is an All Time great episode thay tugs on the heart strings! Chris is the man EXCELLENT addition to the show. I always enjoy the episodes he is in, and looks like I am not the only one after reading the comments.

[@matthewhellmers225]

The girl at that store looked like she could have been a character from a 90s teen movie, "She's so plain. Nobody will ask her to prom, until she does that plot specific thing and finds her confidence. She gets a make-over that consists of taking off her glasses, letting her hair down, and putting on some pretty clothes. She becomes prom queen."

[@ryanhoffman5654]

+Matt Hellmers lmao

[@RetiredMegatron]

+Matt Hellmers LOL nailed it! and yes, she was really pretty.

[@tonyb7615]

That's what makes her so desirable. And u just made her an object. Do not fucking do that.

[@travisj.1938]

LoL nailed it👍

[@jackpliskin161]

I love the evolution of where Chris was when he first started showing up, vs where he is now. I love seeing that fire burn! There was a time I thought I was done with gaming, A few years passed and I realized I was wrong. Had to buy and sell and trade and hunt but I got to where I'm happy again. Still hunting of course.

[@Scottsquatch]

Galaxy Games has some crazy fucking good prices!

[@the_konami_kid]

Chris is the man!!

[@shadowtheoblivious]

this was fucking awesome and that end bit with alpha...priceless! XD

[@RetroR0bbie]

Galaxy Games is *LEGIT* Prety deep near the end when talked about nostalgia. This is why most of us love this hobby. 6:04 Hulk Hogan's Dad

[@MarktheMartian]

You guys are great and Chris makes the show even better!

[@shane3674]

How have I not subscribed to this channel before now? I could watch this all day!

[@PunkScrafty]

Finally got to see Chris' soft side, was a good change from the usual. Good episode, boys!

[@Captain_Neckbeard]

Honestly one of the few laugh out loud funny shows. Jays scarcasm and the crazy ass people you guys run into make this show gold.

[@vio2112]

Chris has been one of the best additions to the show.

[@PeteSkerritt]

That last segment was freaking fantastic. When video games trigger memories or offer that escape from hard times, I can totally relate to it. It's why I got into retro stuff 4 years ago; I have a lot of memories-- mostly great memories-- that come with playing those games, and when life kicks my ass and leaves me bleeding, I can find solace in playing them. Man, Galaxy Games is awesome. 2,500 miles away from me, sadly, but I'd love to go some day. The prices are more than fair, and you guys found some really good stuff. It's a reminder that game stores aren't always out to get you on pricing. Some places are awesome-- I'm glad that I have a place like that just a couple of towns over.

[@omfgblondie]

Chris is quickly becoming my favourite. That was a really sweet story of him reliving his childhood, especially playing NBA Jam with his dad.

[@Mister80Retro]

Holy crap, the garage setup! I want

[@JoshBattin]

Anyone else get the feels from this ep? Just goes to show ya, Jay and Billy are stand-up guys!

[@JoseVargas-bb7vf]

That was the best episode I've seen in a long time guys. Good job

[@clintoncronin2504]

I know this is an old episode and all, but the whole story of finding the old Nintendo mall / KB Toys displays is pretty awesome. It reminds me of my own childhood, and being lucky enough to be able to have similar memories. I’m sitting here repairing some old Gameboy handhelds for a few customers thinking about how cool it is that they’re going to be sharing these games with their kids and all. Love the show guys. It’s cool that you take care of each other . You could tell that getting the case meant a lot to Chris.

[@alphaxomega4522]

Wow this episode is very emotional, one of the best so far!

[@mumfnah]

Chris' garage is mad nice, the chair, lighting, that cabinet, that projector. I want that in my life

[@SlipperyMooseCakes]

Moments like that game cabinet swap are why I watch this channel. Well that and the video games of course. Don't ever forget who you guys are and where you came from. Thanks again for another awesome episode.

[@Proosdagel]

I love how Chris has rekindled his love for gaming due to game chasing influence. The logo on the cabinet was really neat. Love the show guys, was super excited to see a new episode had been released.

[@TheInfiniteMiseryJumper]

Awesome episode guys, go Chris for making this an emotional one.

[@Darkstar263]

That garage is amazing. Especially the projector.

[@kyle-os3wh]

This show needs to be on TV. It's perfect for it!

[@victormelendez9676]

Best episode in a while you guys really captured the idea of what Retro Gaming is about, connecting to those memories from when you where a kid. Seriously though that game case looked badass with the lights in it.

[@LukesGamerRoom]

Great video guys. Nice job snaking that cabinet Chris! No nuts commandeer the playstation one now haha.

[@RetroIslandGaming]

+LuciousShowcase Another quality episode! Good deals. Those mainland USA people crack me up.

[@videogamegenius]

Great Episode. 23:32 That is bad ass.

[@damightybenstein]

I just finished marathoning this show and I can say that this has been an inspiration for me to start actively game chasing in my local area. Last weekend I spent a great portion of my Saturday just going to different flea markets and thrift stores just looking for something to add to my game collection. While I highly doubt I'll ever come across something like Surprise at Dinosaur Peak or Little Samson, it doesn't matter to me because for me it's all about having fun and hanging out with somebody that's also looking for old video games. Can't wait for the next new episode.

[@matthybel955]

Love your channel, definitely entertaining during the stay at home thing going on now! Also you dudes look like wrestlers

[@crashoverride576]

This is probably the best chasers episode to date. You all need retro game night in his garage.

[@johngiron3704]

"Fuck this unsub!" Buwahaha priceless! 10/10 made me laugh!

[@superkool7]

First of all, let me say that you guys are friggin awesome! Thank you so much for making this awesome show and putting out there for all of us. I found out about you guys not too long ago and literally watched every episode within 3 or 4 days. Can't get enough! I know times have changed for collecting, but please keep making episodes for as long as you possibly can! Can't wait to see you guys at RetroWorld in CT this October! Thanks again!!

[@mrsleepystevey]

Great episode guys! Chris' game room is turning out amazing

[@zombiejlt1]

Did Billy say "Ring Commander III" at 10:18? Lol.

[@DCReviews4]

This is one of my favorite episodes I love seeing Chris turn into a gamer I grew up in Texas around guys like him it is cool to see.

[@MrBda241]

That touching moment when they were negotiating for the Case, I can hear that Piano guys, very touching for you game chasers.

[@MSUHitman]

Wing Commander 3 is one of the best FMV games of the 90's. My favorite PC game series.

[@caseyisrawgamingwrestling1253]

yes! a new game chasers episode, a great way to end the day :)

[@StoneWolf2077]

+Casey Yates indeed

[@CliffConway]

Dude that Gretsch drum kit in Chris’s game room is so sick...like the cherry on top, lol

[@xaer0knight]

man, so much electronics. I wonder how much retro PC stuff is out there. I bet there have been some gems like a BeBox or an Apple IIGS just waiting out there! Unopened floppies, CDRWs in a Retail Boxes, AGP Video cards are starting to spike in price as well! Clint from LGR, Roadgeek, vwestlife, and UXWBILL would just so crazy out in Texas ROFL! RetroPC collecting seems to getting just as popular.

[@idstormtroopers]

19:55 had me crying, "a bottle of liquor, pineapple juice, and a turtles in time" - and he was serious, i had to show my friends this clip it's so funny

[@JimBeezie]

With that family negotiation at the end this episode was fucking awesome. Better than anything on TV.

[@james21113]

It was a hard day and i needed the episode but i gotta say man you guys are awesome. Also billy and jay i love what you guys do for us. But Chris,Melvor and dadongo thank you for shooting the episodes. you guys give me fuel for game chasing. you guys make me believe i can find the hard to find games. THANK YOU GUYS :)

[@Maxgainingpower]

Nice talking with you guys in Norway. Love your show. Thanx for signing the shirt :)

[@drdrillvga]

Another good episode keep it up :) love seeing all these old game i used to play as a kid and to see some places where you pick them up for a good price is really cool, too many resellers out there trying to rip people off, love the show i just wish there was more than one full episode a month :)

[@NintendoHodge]

Great episode guys and love of Nostalgia and Love. Nice to see Chris get to keep the cabinet. Love that store in Roswell.

[@SharifSourour]

You know you're at the end of your N64 collection when you pick those games!

[@Pegwarmers]

They made a King Arthur game!?!?!?! I love that show... and the toys! Wow.

[@lildrewdizzle]

Jay very cool of you to hook Chris up with the cabinet! I met both of you guys at the last Retropalooza in Arlington and your both great people. I have nostalgia for KB Toys and the old games so very cool to see this episode.

[@Untouchaable]

Great episode. Jay isn't too Shady in this.

[@carnagekasady4743]

Jay, that was a classy move giving Chris the cabinet. especially classy since you brought up what you owe on the Sega CD case. that's kind of touching the way you hooked him up. mainly because I would have done the same thing. I wish I had some of the stuff you guys have, it makes me want to collect. but damn, it's just so damn expensive now.

[@jameslindsey666]

That cabinet set up is pretty sweet. I plan on making a Nintendo themed cabinet when my SSB amiibo collection is finished. Also, fuck collecting amiibos. I only started to help with my ptsd and panic disorder. Had something to do with rewarding myself for leaving the house?? or some shit...plus my son enjoys getting new ones in the collection.

[@resdog01]

I was driving home from work today listening to Pat's podcast and thinking "I sure hope the chodes have a new episode soon." you made my night! Season continues to be some of the best you've done. keep it up, you guys rock.

[@resdog01]

Ian is back :-). I thought Pat did great alone!

[@exsandohhsify]

I'm on vacation in Puerto Rico and I'm so glad to be watching this video during my vacation!

[@4amLaundry]

That cabinet looks amazing!

[@mercenaut]

I'm not even into video game collecting but I'm jealous of that deal for Duck Dodgers!

[@B33FY2011]

Chris with the feels of nostalgia took me back to all the times I played video games with my dad as a kid and them prices in at Galaxy Games in Roswell are kickass.

[@ParaholiX]

I really liked this episode! Also it's nice how we can see over several episodes that Chris is one of you guys at heart. It was also nice meeting you guys, wanted to talk with you two more but thanks for the autos. Maybe someday we'll go ghost chasin' but until then, it was a pleasure. -(Super Mario)

[@MrMrsCIQ]

Loved the episode guys! I started watching your channel back when I started collecting a few years back. Keep them coming. Mr & Mrs CIQ

[@loco_Fox]

Game room/garage looking good Chris! oh yeah , thats the same reason I had to get wing commander for the 3DO around 5 years back, that and demolition man on the 3do. Great stuff as always, Jay if your reading this, your live steams are missed bro!

[@Rpena1448]

Day went to shit when we found out my dad is out of a job earlier but thanks to this new ep my spirits are up. Thank you Game Chasers for the smile

[@RetroHabit82]

Great job on that display cabinet Chris! And he's reppin the GC logo too!

[@wilkiedriver]

10:49- An early Prince 8-Track tape...in it's original packaging. Amazing.

[@TeamNameless]

Hell yeah! That cabinet looks absolutely fantastic! To be honest, if I were Chris, I would've done the same exact thing.

[@MrFathead]

This was my favorite episode so far. Claiming that cabinet was hilarious, but after seeing him talk about the nostalgia of it and seeing how he set it up how could anyone not let him have it.

[@ClassicContagious]

Chris did an amazing job on that case. Looked sweet.

[@The_Creative_Workshop]

a month since this episode. I keep checking back for new ones... still I get to watch it again :)

[@Jeremymcdev]

I really like Chris and I'm glad he's become a big part of the show.

[@Call_MeJD]

Joker recommend this channel and I love it. Subscribed. Alpha your right. Thrift stores do treat their stuff like gold.

[@cineman73]

Chris' KB cabinet turned out nice. i'm really jealous of that display.

[@TeamChav]

Chris got some skills cleaning that case up like that, also looks like he's got the beginning of a awesome man cave on the horizon

[@beerdeadretro8468]

Awesome episode! Great job on the season 3 dvds too. Very happy with it

[@EchoesOfExplanation]

To be completely honest, I didn't like Chris all that much at first but as the show went on he really grew on me :) The show has always been funny as hell but the the moments where you guys would go home empty handed due to nearly complete collections was becoming more and more commonplace. Chris has definitely brought an original, fresher feeling to the show and has brought it to a new direction that I'm loving. Awesome episode as always!

[@gerardolarios54]

He might have pulled that move with the cabinet but he has such a big heart I can see why you didn't care much he really love it.
