Birmingham Retro Gaming Market was NO JOKE!

[@clivepotts1273]

As someone who can't get out much due to health reasons, I love this type of video, thanks for taking me there 😉

[@TheGebs24]

This warms my soul Clive. Next time I visit a market, you can set me a challenge. I’ll do my best to complete it for you. That way, it’s even more special for you mate

[@jamesmincks6065]

That Altered Beast sign 👍👍☺️☺️😎😎

[@smallpaul2923]

Many years ago I gave all my ps1 games to a charity shop. Looking at the prices of retro games I'm thinking shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit lol

[@kekklesbekkles]

I was the guy buying the Master system Converter next to you when you were checking out Discworld, didn't realise youd asked me to move! Sorry!

[@pnvgordinho]

21:52 You probably have that on the Amiga. Soccer Kid. Nice game.

[@ForSunday]

Prices are outrageous these days but a lot of new collectors aren't realy clued up and just accept higher and higher prices as the going rate.

[@catlovesquirks3424]

Lovely to meet you at the gaming market Gemma! Sorry if I freaked you out by knowing your name but after watching your channel for four years it just felt natural saying hi like that 🤣hope you liked the SNES you bought and I can recommend Bullet Witch - definitely worth checking out.

[@TheGebs24]

Always my pleasure to meet great people like yourself. Bullet Witch yeah? Cheers

[@catlovesquirks3424]

@@TheGebs24 thank you so much! I live super close to Vintage Gamer (Nick) so am always on the hunt. You helped me find my passion for collecting so thank you for that, always excited to see what you're picking up/playing! Amiga was my first gaming introduction back in the day so I love your recent Amiga stuff. And yes deffo pick it up if you see it, it's a Bayonetta clone but pretty fun ❤️

[@reece3891]

Gem watching this MADE my day it really did! Cheered me up ❤❤❤

[@Reverands]

Great seeing my childhood then seeing stuff my mum sent to the charity shop made me cry

[@RETROSTREFA]

Hi Thank You for photo with You 😊 now it’s time to visit Doncaster 🕹️

[@AndrewHawnt]

Heading to the Nottingham video games expo later this month at the Richard Herrod Centre? Could be fun.

[@wolverinescratch]

My friend in the UAE says the video game collectible market over there is on the rise and they have the money too

[@tonmtbcomic9066]

Jess dater bass and spread sheet lol

[@ScottX68000]

I had no idea there was a game market on at Birmingham! The only one I'd heard about was the one in Doncaster on 5th Feb next year. To be honest with it being December I don't have spare money for retro games anyway so maybe it's for the best I missed this one! Hope you had a great time.

[@haggerz84]

This was May 8th 2022. Still trying to find out where abouts though...

[@haggerz84]

Just found out it's in the custard factory in Digbeth.

[@kekklesbekkles]

@@haggerz84 This wasn't may, it was literally last weekend.

[@haggerz84]

AHH, fairs. The video confused me as it had a poster thingie show up saying it was May 8th. I realised it was the one a few days ago when the lady in the video mentioned it was near Xmas... Thank you for the correction though ^_^

[@theoldpcgamer77]

So glad I'm old enough to have played every gen of gaming ever so I played it when it was new and great and at normal for the times prices. I can't comprehend the prices of these old games, shocking.

[@PatrickIngham21]

Same although started later than you with megadrive/snes, my family couldn't always afford the latest system when it came out, usually got brothers hand me down and glad i got to enjoy buying games a bit later like when snes/megadrive/saturn/ps1 they were like £5-£20 pound range not £100 + !! I also remember wanting to check out Jaguar and i got one from telegames for about £30 and then found some of the games being randomly being sold in GAME sealed old stock for like £1 a game. Stuff like this doesent happen now it must suck being a teenage gamer most of this stuff is out of reach unless your a working adult with free cash to spend !

[@theoldpcgamer77]

@@PatrickIngham21 I know what you mean about bargains. I saw a copy of snatcher on Mega CD for about £5 boxed but no manual in the early 2000's. In the mid 90's Japanese Megadrive games were under £10 in some random shop in the city centre. Import games were £50 on release from early 90's to late 90's and many of these are crazy amounts now. You couldn't give this stuff away back then.

[@B5s4]

“ Find out if I “Brought” it soon”. ?!!?!! 19:26

[@martinsvendsen1665]

Man! You do travel alot :) thx for taking us with you :)

[@spookygeek9459]

Thank you for showing me in your video was nice meeting both of you. I did get one of them plaques that you was talking about. I got the one with the two dragons I was going to get the assassins Creed figure but I was thinking about it when I went back, it was got but it was a great day. It was great seeing you both you again you take care keep safe all the family 😊😊👍🎮🎮

[@stuartmoxon5850]

Did you buy the snes doorway to Dorkness have one in now 😊

[@matthewkiely5097]

Those arcade marquee’s looked amaze 😮😮😮

[@silverian]

Thanks for teleporting to Birmingham Retro Gaming Market!

[@iancawley9777]

the eye of judgement is a card game that is played using the ps3 camera

[@manuelcosta224]

I didnt know that a Bioshock ps4 was made ! Thanks for sharing your tour videos !

[@darcyooh5543]

I have a Question, in the UK with your current Gen gaming hardware and PC's as well as monitors and TV's Are you able to have NTSC versions of games that run at 60hz on your monitors and TV's over there in the UK or is it still PAL 50hz across the board?

[@Damian808UKOfficial]

I guess we could now,. finally lol

[@tomfum]

Oh Gem i saw so many games i used to own in that video and how much they are going for now is crazy. So many games and the prices were so high as well. I wish id gone though it looked good

[@davidjohnuk39]

What was those gaming glass things called or where do you get them from don't matter

[@mygodafish88]

Well I was in this video any awful lot without even realising you were there 🤣

[@bluwolf9357]

What a great gaming market... But some prices were just aaaaarggggh.... Loved the video Gemma!!!! 🤘🤘🤘♥️

[@Mellbergfan]

Discworld 2, one of my favourite ever games. Absolute classic!

[@Saxonsince81]

I have to be honest I was a little disappointed overall, still I didn't leave empty handed and I did land a few decent bargains

[@pferreira1983]

22:03 It's Soccer Kid. For some reason they changed the name for North America. 😆

[@HyperTeddyBear]

7:42 - Table also had Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for... £55!

[@8BitBoyUK]

Great video mate. Haven't caught much of your stuff this year but definitely need to do some catch him up. Merry Christmas

[@MattGamesYT]

Great seeing you again Gem! You heading to Nottingham VGE on the 17th/18th? It's a new event but looks promising and we'll be there ('cos y'no, we're bloody everywhere these days lol).

[@mickeyfryers4854]

I was there remember seeing you there it was fab

[@richnesbitt312]

Those saturn games arent for sale he's just showing of his collection

[@Fox_Mccloud11]

Love the video!

[@gaminggrandad10]

Great video Gebs loved it fantastic items shown 👍👍

[@StabStabStabStabby]

Repros are literally worthless (and technically illegal). People should be ashamed of charging more than £5 for the box and cart.

[@davidgill6933]

Gemma is the Birmingham gaming market worth going to ? I'm from Ireland and seeing this video me and my friend really wanna go...how often do these events happen?

[@honestfigurereviews]

I wish you would show the price of everything you pick up,would make viewing a lot more interesting 🙂

[@garryhedger331]

I would be very broke attending this retro day

[@deanrussell1234]

£75 for a magazine wowzers!!!!!

[@tonmtbcomic9066]

I would ask if he would deal lol

[@LangersVW]

That turtles bin …. How cool was that 😊

[@Yorkshiregamer1]

Very nice vid as always but some of that stuff seemed high to me

[@comicron]

That guy who sold you the Snes seemed like a right arrogant Tosser lol. Anyway cheers for the video Gemma.

[@jamcasual5714]

I love alan! i make a beeline every time I go to an event he is at!

[@TheGebs24]

He’s such a friendly chap. I’ve got a lot of time for him 😃

[@RetroBreak]

Was a great market! Always enjoy your tour videos :)

[@Acuraweaponx]

Drinking game!! One shot every time Gemma says wicked!! 😂 love your videos!!

[@TheGebs24]

I’d be dead 😂😂😂😂

[@robhuanout5443]

christ. £70 for Clockwork Knight 2 on the Saturn. Might consider selling my copy.

[@The_Lamer_Gamer]

Everything was over priced there for my liking. Glad I didn't bomb your video this time.

[@rollerxcore]

hopefully not everything ;)

[@The_Lamer_Gamer]

@rollerxcore not you mate, love my bits off you. X

[@honestfigurereviews]

Not worth going to places like this anymore when the sellers are more expensive than eBay ...

[@sufamidan1006]

Did i just see fifa 17 for £10?

[@waynetemplar2183]

I'm peed off that I missed this :-(

[@rogeriosilva9811]

Não pegou o snes

[@B5s4]

Only thing that I got from this video was the fact that you overused the word wicked, profusely!

[@Bluntz_]

Ayo, we were there too! 🔥

[@goldinho]

Iceferno!!!
