Thank you. First thing I thought of. If I give away my most prized possesions I hope someone asks me if I'm OK.

[@DieAlteistwiederda]

@@ErKtheErK as a collector I would only give away my stuff if I knew I won't be here for much longer. It's different for the broken items someone else send.

[@marzbar5877]

Yeah, I got a similar feeling that I couldn’t describe until I read your comment. This is kinda worrying, even after watching the video on Elliot’s 2nd channel that the original owner sent

[@ErKtheErK]

@@marzbar5877 Watched that too. Glad there was a follow-up. Thankfully just a good guy, hopefully, that wanted to pay it forward. Probably says more about me. Letting go of my nostalgia would be a huge red flag.

[@stratosphere94]

That was my immediate thought 😰

[@blu_lennox]

I'm so happy this became a main channel vid, especially since Ryan was so generous. Elliot your mission is to preserve Ryan's memory's by giving them games a loving new home

[@nealhammersmith8798]

A little late to the party here but I watched Ryan's story. There be a lot of love in those boxes. To spend that much money on shipping and send that collection of bangers, he must respect Elliot a lot to carry on with his childhood dream.

[@KlingonCaptain]

People don't generally give me things, but you know, sometimes I give myself things... when I can afford it.

I wonder why they sent everything in their gaming collection, do they not want it anymore or they like TRF that much?

[@namebrandlabel]

[@susu5331]

I am guessing maybe they are moving or going to university? I bought my new 3DS from a nice fellow who's going to study abroad. (And I tried to send my WiiU and games to a friend as a gift when I was leaving UK, so I think that's reasonable)

[@josebosua1489]

[@aliceinmansonland448]

[@anthonymaddaford8474]

Same.

[@josebosua1489]

Thought the same 😰

[@aaronkuminski1415]

Ryan is a baller if he can give away all that. Or he truly loved these items and knew they they would be save with retro future and how much they would be appreciated it's wonderful. Ryan made someone's day I think that's what he was going for

2,000 USD maybe more. I'd send the guy a nice check for his kindness. He deserves it and everybody could use a little cash. Maybe give him all the ad revenue from this video as well as a portion of your patreon income this month. The right thing to do.

[@Gameboy-Unboxings]

Hahaha yea right. He's obviously a greedy POS. I can see smaller channels keeping their p.o box up but once you get to 100k subs, take that shit down. These people make me sick who send thousands of dollars of stuff to a person who more than likely makes in a day what they make in one or two weeks.

Yeah something most people in the world will never know is how much it costs to ship stuff for Canadians. I literally shipped a gift to a friend that was less than 1KG, living in the same city as me, but oh the other side of the city and I have no means of going to them for the time being and to ship it to the other side of my own city it cost 31$ with the shipping box cost added in and still it’s going to take them 1 week to make the delivery!

You should buy another one of those exploded systems and put it together and see if you can actually build a working one with the framed parts. obviously you would have to provide missing hardware such as wires and what not but i feel that would br a good idea for your channel for the views and interest.

That sounded like you never played the Professor Layton games. Please do, they are incredible! If I'm not mistaking the American versions have different voice actors to the European one, but maybe you don't care about that? Either way, they're best played in release order: Curious Village, Pandora's Box, Unwound/Lost Future (best one), Spectre's Call, Miracle Mask, Azran Legacy (the US names may differ from the European; it can be a bit confusing =P) The crossover with Phoenix Wright is best played after the main games! =D
