[@Night-Jester]

Yeah I'd say you have a few fans!

[@Etibbetts1]

Happy to see those guys at the gameroom trading post opening a new store! Jimmy's the man!

[@EXCEEDINGSHADOW]

I missed you guys uploading these videos, I’ve watched all your game chasing videos 100’s of times including the whole season versions

[@hogie267]

I still don't understand how these guys only have 140k subs after all the years of amazing content and production quality

[@TFitz1]

One of my favorite channels ever not just for gaming but in general 👍

[@QuantumLeep]

Exactly what I was thinking! Keep up the content! 🙌

[@common_c3nts]

Neither can I. They have a professionally done show for a decade. They should be at over a millions subs.

[@newfiekiyaygaming2139]

Absolutely, one of the best!

[@jett9142]

I heard Riff on Pixel Plus’s podcast say something about how they don’t play the algorithms because they don’t give a shit. I don’t know what that means but I agree 100% with you. Especially when you see other channels with so many more subscribers. Their loss.

[@MetalJesusRocks]

It’s good to have a new episode! I missed you guys 😜

[@thechosenwon6762]

Metal Jesus in da House

[@theulimatecollecter7333]

I agree the game chaser rocks 🎸 you rock metal jesus

[@maartenn2217]

I love how Chris collects. No hoarding, no extreme haggling, just buying the heavy hitters that are nostalgic to you. Exactly how I'm collecting

[@rebelspark86]

Same here man!

[@KennytheHedgehog619]

lmao the N64 sign is already up on eBay for 10 grand

[@kaio0777]

@@KennytheHedgehog619 nah you serious i am going to need a link for that.

[@BartSmith85]

@@KennytheHedgehog619 It's not the same sign as that one is like new condition. The one Jay bought has some signs of wear. There is also another one listed on eBay for US $3,399.00 (worse condition than both mentioned).

[@MarshallFlores]

So nice to see Mike and Jimmy again.

[@The_Game_Juggler_ME]

Imagine this year being the surprise return of other people like video game Mike .

[@BloodyEyeGamer]

This was an amazing episode, feels like old school Game Chasers. Needed this today, thanks guys! 😁

[@SethFowler]

So stoked to see this pop up in my sub box! Awesome episode! So glad you guys are back to it!

[@8BittyLPCommittee]

Game Chasers... just makes a man feel good.

[@bsimms3686]

that's a merch idea

[@1985Link]

Same here dude

[@comedicmatters]

As a video editor (and professor of video editing), I have to commend you on your editing. It's professional with a certain Tim & Eric charm with the soundbites and joke call backs. Fine work, Billy! Glad to see you back! The tale of the old guy re-opening the store after his wife died was sad, but it's nice to see he's back doing what he loves! What a fantastic N64 sign. Damn, nice find.

[@TheGameChasers]

Thanks a ton mam

[@StopLate77]

I don't comment on KZbin often but a new Game Chasers episode makes me happy.

[@goodwi11]

Jimmy backpedaling and claiming he knew the actual price of Metal Warriors is hilarious

[@kingorion88]

Hes not backpedalling. He said in the episode right after he sold it that he knew what it was worth.

[@goodwi11]

@@kingorion88 Correct. That’s when the backpedal started. I wouldn’t want to admit I was caught slippin to these guys either tbh

[@nad92422]

I've been suffering from severe depression lately. And something about watching your guys' show is soothing. I've been watching since the Nintendo U came out and I saw that unboxing video. I'm glad I found your channel.

[@vincemcinerney2082]

Jay's face when he saw the bearded dragon eggs was hilarious 🤣

[@HiroesX81]

Good to see the store back in another form. Ive been re-watching the first seasons and I had wondered about it. Also holy crap ive never seen Jay spend that kind of money on anything before on this show but damn good find.

[@shane3674]

Your timing is great Billy. With everything going on we could use a new episode. We love you guys!

[@kylepayne3332]

"On todays episode of the game chasers..." Oft music to my ears! Thanks guys!

[@kylepayne3332]

@Text on Telegram @thegamechasers is this a real thing???

[@gaming_hippie4806]

This has to be the most under rated video game collecting channel, glad you guys are made a new episode

[@AdriftForWeeks]

It's so good seeing Mike and Jimmy. Hell yeah, man.

[@RetroRob420]

20:19 Just keep watching behind Billy. That lady scared thee, living, sh*t out of me. I didn't see her walking up before in the earlier shot. She looked like a straight up statue!😂😂

[@Grindhead_Jim]

🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@Portal2099]

Mike and Jimmy should have your channel playing on a TV in their shop. The best advertising they could ever ask for.

[@Cvaniafan4life]

Great episode Billy. It was terrific seeing Mike and Jimmy again. Sorry to hear about his wife's passing. Those are great people. Take Care guys!

[@JohnnysCards55]

Yeah thank you Game Chasers you really did well setting up this video and how the old Store Owner closed their shop but then started again after their loss. With all the horrible news and challenges people face nowadays with mental health the pandemic etc, this really helps a lot of people. We love y’all and are lucky to have you guys.

[@Epik_Comixz_Drew]

Man the joy that fills me when i see a new Game Chasers video is the best & We get to see Mike & Jimmy again What an episode !! Also sorry to hear about mikes wife passing away RIP

[@turism0388]

The feels of this episode... The game room trading post episodes are by far my favourites of the show and this was amazing. Mike and Jimmy havent changed. This is the best - thankyou!

[@GameSack]

I hope you're displaying the PlayStation side of that sign and not the N64 side. Have a little pride.

[@redmist78]

That made me spit up my drink.

[@The_Game_Juggler_ME]

Thank you 👏

[@SCU3A_S7EVE]

That PlayStation side can lick my taint.

[@ThaGreatestAlexander]

it is pride month after all

[@SnipingIsFun]

Dude........seriously!? You find a way to display both.

[@MegaKoeyKue]

I just got into this series, been watching through your season compilation episodes. It's been fun to see the show progress through all of your travels.

[@damightybenstein]

...I did it. I finally finished my annual Game Chasers marathon! I'm glad to see that Mike had gotten back into the video game business with a new store in Hot Springs. I also didn't know that Jimmy was Mike's son, so that was an interesting tidbit. One of my biggest regrets was not being able to visit the old Game Room Trading Post. I really need to go to the new store and tell him that Billy and Jay sent me, because I wouldn't have known about either of the two places if it wasn't for the show.

[@RetroR0bbie]

Cool to see they opened another store.

[@lonewolfbobbyblade]

YES! I've been waiting for a new episode. I literally just finished watching through the entire series again, and finished the last episode 2 days ago. This couldn't have come at a better time. Thank you!

[@TheGameChasers]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@Gabaghoul1987]

It is soo good to see these two again after so many years. This is classic game chasers.

[@iicarlyy9770]

“That’s why I came back “ 😭😭😂😂😂 Jimmy’s too funny

[@IowaRetroGamerDad]

I binged all the seasons of this the past few weeks and its so cool to see Jimmy and them. Its like a time machine because I was just watching when you first met him.. and now everyones old. lol

[@Guns7469]

Do I wach this now? Or save it for a weekend and get the beer ready? BOTH!!👍👍

[@retropapa3821]

The only channel on KZbin that's about collecting video games for the love of it not just buying to resell them. These guys are awesome been a fan for all these years.

[@IlliyaVjestica]

This was such a brilliant episode. Nice to see the Game Room Trading Post is back is some form. The haggling over the sign was epic. I think that's the most Jay has ever paid on something.

[@Squiggles95]

It was great seeing Mike and Jimmy again. So glad they’re back doing what they do best. Gonna have to make a trip out to Hot Springs soon.

[@EQOAnostalgia]

Great to see the trading post guys still doing their thing, albeit more scaled back. Also LOL @ 7:47 "Genisis"

[@Johnnygrafx]

That negotiation was epic! I love seeing two genuine people figure out a fair deal like that. Great episode guys!

[@kevinmota8751]

So happy to see another episode guys. I'm glad to know Mike and Jimmy are continuing their love of video games in another adventure. Thank you so much Game Chasers for making my day. Smiles all around.

[@skylaandkylieswonderland5088]

Iam from japan ,i have been watching game chasers and toy chasers since 2017 .. always happy watching you guys

[@Legato1243]

Mike and Jimmy!!!! So glad to see them back in the game, great episode guys!

[@ZuccoFigures]

Great episode guys. Thanks for keepin it genuine throughout the years.

[@TheGameChasers]

Thanks for watching throughout the years

[@sunwentai1]

Collecting for lesser known consoles or microcomputers can be really fun for those low low prices, but when you actually have an emotional connection with it, it's amazing. And that sign is an amazing find! And well bargained.

[@Nissehultan]

”That’s a really good game”

[@TheGameChasers]

Hey thanks!

[@misfit_kev]

I love seeing Mike and Jimmy back on the show again, I’ve always wanted to visit their store more than any other store featured in any episode. Great stuff as always guys, already can’t wait for the next one!

[@n0isyturtle]

A cool sign, with a cool history, and a cool story of how you got it. That's what game chasin' is all about!

[@Night-Jester]

What! Great seeing Mike and Jimmy!!! I didn't see that part coming after the sad tribute to Game Room Trading Post first. Awesome!

[@westleyleonstudios]

First time here - Got to say, great work you guys! This is on the level of a quality TV show. Seriously, not many do it at this level and appreciate the work you're putting into this.

[@vincemcinerney2082]

A new Game Chasers to watch right after work! Life is good!

[@SnackCannon]

HERO is probably my favorite Atari game! Played it a lot with my dad growing up. Miss you, dad. You're the real HERO.

Awesome game :)

Wow, this is so cool! Thanks for the new episode!

[@zachbrierley776]

So awesome to see Jimmy and his dad again. The visits to the store in Malvern are some of my favorite episodes!

[@jamess.9743]

wow another classic episode! Mike and Jimmy episodes are always great!! loved Jay's haggling ability.

[@sinfulsloth8867]

Damn, almost had me real sad when u mentioned game room trading post closing. Then you end up going to their new store. :) this felt like some 2016/2017 game chasing. Good stuff guys

[@Getcrow]

Not only is this giving me my nostagia fix for retro video games, its giving me my fix for retro Game Chasers. Nice!

[@mainelyretro]

Yes!!! Mike and Jimmy are around. I will never go to Arkansas, however knowing they are still around makes the world a better place.

[@Randhrick]

Rewatching this episode for the 10th times and just realized something, on the season 2 episode when you guys discover Game room and trading post Billy gets a sign, years later they are back and this time Jay gets another sign, amazing

[@arcadeages3917]

The editing is so good on this channel. Thanks Joe!

[@MoonSpiritChannel]

Good to see another Game Chaser episode, and seeing that Arkansas store get new life. And glad to see the Retropalooza going on back there b/c I was there and happy to be back in Arlington!

[@JakeAndKamHaveIssues]

Damn, seems like an age ago when you guys filmed episodes at their old store. Really happy to see them carry on the business - what characters!

[@Ziggy7800Pro]

Hell yeah 2600 rules! I love playing it on my CRT...Great episode!

[@atarigirl729]

[@DiscordedHaru]

I was feeling sick earlier today and kinda bummed out, but seeing this show up on my KZbin was like a good omen. I loved the episode!

[@cheatcodecharlie]

First off we LOVE CHRIS!!!! CHRIS IS THE MAN...... lil bro definitely needs more camera time.....just love his new passion for video games compared to the others his garage game room...its just great to see someone start getting into his passion.....

[@CincyGameHunting]

That Hostage ST game looked so familiar. Then it clicked. That's Rescue: The Embassy Mission on the NES!!! I loved that game growing up. I always thought it was so cool with all the different types of gameplay involved. Same reason why North and South is one of my favorite NES games. Very cool!!!

[@a755007]

Love to see Sam & Jimmy again! They seem like awesome guys! Very unfortunate his wife passed. Thanks for the awesome content, we've missed these very much!

[@Kornheadfan]

My girlfriend cancelled our plans for the evening....but then the light of a new Game Chasers episode shone down and brightened up my evening. Thanks guys! Looking forward to more episodes of this, Toy Chasers and eventually being able to buy the movie on Blu-ray

[@TheGameChasers]

Glad we can help

[@shakenbake7777]

Jimmy just cant let that metal warriors go

[@TheCrookinator]

Congratulations on the movie guys. Me and my daughter watched it together and had an absolute blast. Can't wait for our physical copy to arrive to add to our collection 😀

Ahhhh every minute pure pleasure. Thank you guys. Big hugs from Germany!

[@austinkoeppen6122]

Sweet, now when I visit Retro Rick's store I can swing a little further south and visit this place too.

[@quicksilverbalt]

Love Retro Madness! I typically hit up the Hulen location.

[@dogmd7]

Such a great episode and I am loving the negotiation evolution of Shady Jay. Love that the crew is back together and you guys did good helping out Mike and Jimmy's small business with your purchases and got an awesome sign. But someone has to tell Jimmy to change out that typo on the "Genisis" label 😂 7:52

[@The_Game_Juggler_ME]

Fantastic episode with so many surprises like the return of the Game Room Trading Post crew & Atari ST video cameo ya know!

[@TerryParr]

Steve ,the owner of Retro Madness, is such an awesome guy.

[@TJacks23]

Love seeing everything come full circle 10 years later..amazing episode!

[@tarmorattassep9786]

I was having a pretty awful week but thanks to this new awesome episode that you guys put out, everything bad in my head instantly washed away! Thank you for making my week!

Saw myself in the background for a few seconds 😂 officially been in a GC video now 🤘🏼😅

[@chadwolsieffer109]

Awesome so glad you guys are back, this just made my day! Very cool seeing Mike and Jimmy also!

[@themightymesprit7325]

Welcome Back Mike and Jimmy. It's great to see you guys again on Game Chasers and this was a great start to a new arc of the show. Keep up the great work Billy and Jay.

[@speedwaynutt]

Having recently rewatched the Complete Seasons featuring The Gaming Trading Post it's awesome to see the old guy Mike again.

[@hiphopexorcist]

So glad you put out a new episode! Missed vicariously living through you guys going out game chasing. Being a married man and a grandparent doesn’t allow me time to game chase myself. Love you guys. Good to have you both back in action.

[@zerojayzero]

You know, I may never be anywhere remotely near Hot Springs, AK but the split second you guys said they reopened, I threw a fist up in the air for it.

[@damightybenstein]

There's a town in Alaska called Hot Springs?

[@charlespeterson8659]

Awwww! So stoked to see the Game Room Trading Post guys!

[@redmist78]

One hell of a surprise for a Thursday. That's so awesome They just opened up shop in another area.... And Jimmy came back!!!!

[@SnipingIsFun]

Never thought I needed to see Billy metal gear his way across the floor but I am certainly glad that I did.

[@dotheevolution78]

I just don't understand the algorithm. I'm not trying to dunk on Wood but I enjoy your content way more than his. You guys deserve way more subs.

[@carnage8393]

Another great video Hostage on the Atari is the same game as rescue an embassy mission on NES or at least in the UK

[@TieDyeShyGuy]

The backstory alone makes that sign worth it.

[@metalfacemark]

Great to see game chasing back again! Lots of laughs in this one, I love the Atari st stuff, my dad had one too which I eventually inherited, my first game was Typhoon, I was blown away by the speech in it!

[@lemaitrethemonk]

Nothing better than someone in customer service wearing a T-shirt that says, "If you can read this, you are standing too close." Love that shit!

[@spankboogie1503]

This is truly sad! I always thought i would eventually visit this place and i had no idea they closed it down. My favorite episodes of game chasers were the times they visited the gamers trading post. Thanks for making this episode its bitter sweet.

[@spankboogie1503]

Definitely awesome they opened another location! Maybe i can visit the new place at some point.

[@animosiity]

That bearded dragon lady is my spirit animal 🦓 Super glad to see a chasing video guys!

[@justingabel8031]

Awesome episode, glad to see the guys from GRTP are back in business, easily one of my favorite stores (visited twice and bought waaaay to much lol) may have to make a trip to hot springs sometime soon

[@lasersnake]
