The REAL TREASURES of SEGE? Southeast Game Exchange

[@retrobeliever]

Man this was amazing, the camera and footage looks so good! Top Tier vid my friend, really great to see all the people you caught on film! And fantastic pick-ups for the Genesis, Aladdin is amazing and I always liked Pitfall but the Jaguar version is my favorite 🤷🏼‍♂️ So glad I worked up the nerve to talk to you, great meeting you!!!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thanks buddy! I wish I had been on the ball and got some footage with you! That’s awesome I’m excited to check out my new Genesis collection. Maybe I’ll have to venture to Pitfall on the Jaguar to check it out! Super glad we got to meet and hang out my friend!

[@retrobeliever]

@@RetrocartCollector oh that’s ok, I try not to be in people’s stuff….i just live in the moment if I can, sometimes though it’s just gonna happen lol. But yes, can’t wait until the next one my friend!!! ❤️🎮

[@SquarePegs]

Amazing to get to meet you at SEGE, my friend! This video is a killer recap - awesome Genesis pickups. Nightshade is a sneaky good get as well. And yes - the community is the best about the show. Being able to spend time with my friends is always the best part of any show. :)

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thanks Jay, I appreciate you. Can’t wait for the next one and hope we can visit more next time. Nightshade looks like an amazing game, I’m super glad I could add it to my collection there. The community is amazing, it’s totally awesome to get to spend time with great people at these shows.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Awesome to hang out with you, brother! The editing on this one is incredible!

[@RetrocartCollector]

It was an awesome time hanging out brother! Thanks again for everything! Thank you, I really appreciate that!

[@Retro-Lover]

I wanted to go to sege so bad maybe next year

[@Retro-Lover]

How long was the wait to get into the expo

[@RetrocartCollector]

@@Retro-Lover it’s a super fun convention. I hope you can make it next year!

[@MortsGarage]

Loved getting to see you again at SEGE! Great finds on the Sega stuff too man.

[@RetrocartCollector]

Was great to see you too brother! Hopefully we will get to hang out again soon. Thank you, I’m excited to delve into the Genesis library!

[@Woodmanclassics]

Glad you made the trip down! Another great video!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thanks brother! Next time I'll plan better and we can hang out some more! Gonna have to check out your collection!

[@ArkansasPicker]

Still can't believe you found a razor scooter game 😂

[@RetrocartCollector]

I honestly thought it was an impossible task 😂

[@ArkansasPicker]

@@RetrocartCollector You used the power of maple syrup.

[@RetroRivals]

We had the pleasure of being able to attend SEGE last year and break into Andy's game room. It was such an amazing time. Can't believe how many Genesis games you got for $100!!! Amazing. Oh and to answer your question, the people were 1000% the best part of the con for us. Ohhhh and we can't forget that Austin is an amazing host!

[@RetrocartCollector]

That sounds like an awesome time! Good ol' Andy, he's such a gem! Me too and all CIB. The Genesis will be fun to collect for. Its for sure the people. He is, they put on such an awesome event there its totally impressive.

[@barnsongelectric]

Awesome vid!! It was cool seeing you at SEGE. Glad you made the trip bro🔥

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thank you! I’m really glad I made the trip, it was a lot of fun seeing everyone and checking it out 🎉🎉

[@GamerAhmer]

This community is the best! I agree! 😊

[@RetrocartCollector]

So many great people in this community. I feel lucky to get to be a part of it with folks like you in it.

[@MANNYSARCADE]

So much great stuff, that place looked huge.

[@RetrocartCollector]

It was massive man! And just all games left right and center. Was a super cool convention!

[@NerdLife84]

Man SEGE looks like an awesome convention! Place looks huge as well! I love how great this community is! I can't wait to be able to go to SEGE

[@RetrocartCollector]

It was an amazing convention. Not only was it huge but it had so many awesome items. I hope you can make it to it in the near future my friend. You would really enjoy it!

[@IowaRetroGamerDad]

I'm hoping to get to Midwest Gaming sometime!! I'm always too freaking busy. lol

[@RetrocartCollector]

Midwest looks like it would be a cool one too! Maybe I'll have to try for next year.

[@RetroWolf_YT]

Good stuff man! Glad you enjoyed SEGE!!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thanks brother! It was a great time and great to see ya and get to visit some!

[@sethtanner1]

Screech! So cool meeting you! Keep retro alive in Canada! See you soon!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Seth! So great meeting you too man! Just rocking it up here until I can live down there in the heat! LOL Hope to see ya soon my friend!

[@MXSretro]

Great vid! It was awesome meeting you!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thank you! It was great to get to meet you and your family!

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Dude! This was an amazing video you put together! I live the editing you are doing and it was so well put together. Super cool to see what you were on the hunt for and that you got some great deals. Contra Force! Nice! (Super C is still the king!) 😂 You are absolutely correct about the best thing at SEGE. It’s always the people and the community love! 🍻🤙🏻

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thanks brother! These ones are a lot of fun to make so I’m glad you enjoyed it! Super C is my pick as well 😁 Was glad to cross one off my hit list and compete that set with Contra Force. Absolutely, the people in this community are amazing, super glad I get to have friends like you through this community!

[@Charles-c9x]

Im a rapper from Ottawa. Love your content, especially the NES stuff as that is what I collect. Keep it up, great energy

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thank you! I'll be checking out your stuff!

[@porchman]

Awesome video - love the Genesis - top notch guy right here & so many legends in this one sheesh

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thanks brother! Im hooked on Genesis now, it might have been a mistake for my wallet to start down that road 😂🤣. There were some pretty amazing folks just bumming around at SEGE for sure! Could have used some 🐪’s in the house tho!

[@Nesmaster101]

The inventory on offer here looks incredible. Pricey, but fun to look at. I didn't know you collect Mighty Max! Would love to see that. Perhaps combine it with a mini review on your thoughts of the game. Decent cross off with Contra Force. A nice one for the collection, even if the game isn't well regarded. Nice seeing you again this weekend, and thanks for the sticker! Looking forward to your future hunts. :)

[@RetrocartCollector]

There was some pricey bangers for sure! Really fun place to adventure around at. That's a great idea! I'm just cleaning games for some haul videos in the near future so I'll plan to show my collection off when I get to that. It was great seeing you too. I hope the sales went well yesterday for you and it was a great event! Thanks again for letting me know about it!

[@LimestonePicker]

Fun video!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thank you! It was a lot of fun to put together.

[@Pacmancase]

Such a great time my dude! Always great to see you!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Totally an epic time brother! Was great to see you too man, next time I’ll plan better and stop in at the store!

[@Videogamelover58]

Glad you guys had an awesome time

[@RetrocartCollector]

It was such a fun time! Totally awesome!

[@PretirementDays]

Awsome! I know you had fun

[@RetrocartCollector]

It was a totally blast!

this was a fun video my friend!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thanks brother!

[@Brownsniper1996]

Awesome video, per usual.

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thank you so much! I do my best 😃Its all thanks to Legends like you!

[@Hellv1n]

Just discovered your channel. Great video, well put together. I LOVED getting to see some of the Genesis stuff offered at SEGE! I am 8 games away from a complete Sega Genesis set, I would have loved to attend to see if I could have knocked any out haha!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Thanks for stopping by! I really appreciate that you checked out my channel. There was so much to look at for the Genesis there. It was probably a bad convention for me to start down the Genesis rabbit hole at, because I was just hooked on looking at games for it once I started! 😂 That’s totally epic you only have 8 left! Which ones are you hunting for? SEGE is a great con if you can make it there, I was really impressed by it!

[@Hellv1n]

@@RetrocartCollector Thanks and NP. Would definitely like to attend someday. Last games are: Bible Adventures, Joshua, Miracle Piano, NCAA Final Four, Pele, Sparkster, Tecmo Super Bowl II & III

[@RunWithCurt]

lol I’m so loud 😂 good seeing you as always brother

[@RetrocartCollector]

No way man, I blame Saturn Steve. 😂😂😂 Was great to see ya too brother! Hope to see ya soon, maybe at Rick-A-Palooza. 😂

[@vinylreckoning]

So good meeting you my guy!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Was great to get to meet you two! I really enjoyed our visit and laughs.

[@pnx_world]

Honestly I know the product and games take a bit of the stage but we also noticed that the biggest and hidden treasure of this conventions is the community aspect. It’s one we wish we could’ve enjoyed a little more. We did had a 2 day pass but went home instead to avoid traffic and spend time with our little one. But we will plan better next time to make more space to hang around more and meet people! It was our first convention and it was still a blast! So much fun!

[@RetrocartCollector]

The community really is amazing. I’m glad you had fun at it even tho your time was limited then! Hopefully next year you can spend some more time and get to meet some folks, everyone’s awesome and super easy to chat with!

[@pnx_world]

@@RetrocartCollector yea we are definitely planning to try and make it longer and more comfortable trip to try and enjoy the con without rushing. we did meet some people this time around like Mort and Dan from JRPGLife. also love the shirt btw huge Blink fans ourselves

[@RetroGamingPandemic]

Pop punk bros!!! 🤘

[@RetrocartCollector]

Pop Punk bros for life! 🎉🎉

[@chriskoschik391]

0:21 lol man when I see those mint condition Nintendo Power magazines, all I want to do is rip them open, sit in a hot bath, and read them like I did as a kiddo! Were you as surprised as I was in seeing John Riggs height? I figured he was a short geek until I saw his stature lol

[@RetrocartCollector]

lol that’s funny man! I need to start picking them up more often. It’s so cool to check them out. I dunno about in the bath tho 😂🤣😂 that’s sounds like living dangerously. I was pretty surprised when I met him in person too. I knew he was a tall guy from some comments from the other guys about him towering over them, but I was still surprised when I ran into him the first time.

[@japangamejunk]

Growing up in rural Georgia I would have loved events like this... In the 90s it wasn't exactly the most culturally accepted thing in the Southeast comment 69 nice

[@RetrocartCollector]

Same here, I would have loved stuff like this back in the 90’s! I see kids running around at them and wish I could have been that kid when I was younger. It’s for sure a different time, gaming is looked at a lot differently now hey! Nice! 😂

[@NESADDICT]

Hate I missed ya bud!

[@RetrocartCollector]

That's ok man! Next year hopefully! Tell Russ to give you my contact info.

[@Kalamari-contra]

If Contra Force was named anything else other than a Contra game it would rank higher. It’s actually not a bad game at all.

[@RetrocartCollector]

You’re right there. I like the idea of it and really don’t mind it. It’s too bad they tried to tie it into the Contra franchise.

[@MrMonktube]

At around 8:22 when you move the camera to the right would you happen to remember the name of that vendor?? I bought a lot from them and I wish I could remember who they were.. great vendors. Awesome event. Will be going again next yr.

[@RetrocartCollector]

I'm not sure to be honest with you. I wish I knew for you! There was so many great vendors there, such an awesome event I agree. I hope I can make it next year too!

[@Charles-c9x]

Shidane Arone KZbin rapper and creator

[@RetrocartCollector]

Not sure who that is but I'll look them up

[@chubsy]

Ive never been. How much was admission?

[@RetrocartCollector]

Single day tickets were $20. $30 for a 2 day pass. It was a pretty impressive event for that price. So much to look at!

[@chubsy]

@@RetrocartCollector i figured itd be more than that. i wanna go next year!

[@RetrocartCollector]

I hear it will be a 3 day event next year so that would be a good one to go to.
