Of course you needed that mouse. It'd be like getting Lethal Enforcers without that blue plastic .357 light gun! Besides you said under $20 for the game cart, nothing was said about peripherals. Loophole!

[@JRPGLife]

You make a great point! 😲

Project Horned Owl! That was the first game that came with my Playstation. Loved playing that game with friends.

[@NinjaxShadowXx]

Wario's Woods on NES was worth like $50 a year or two ago so it was probably for that version of the game.

[@JRPGLife]

That makes sense 🤔

[@humanpr0ject1]

Hey y'all love the videos! Quick tip: I find that if I film CRT screens with my phone and zoom out even a little bit to the wide angle lens, it will remove the refresh rate flickering issue. May or may not work depending on your phone but worth a shot

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks for watching! We actually film with GoPros and a Sony ZV-e10, so it can be rough 😅

[@robl6933]

I was fortunate that my brother and I had jobs when the NES and SNES came out. Buying tons of these games when the first came out. Now they are all packed away in their boxes. I bought alot of them on the 3ds, so I have them when I want to play them. Great video!

[@DogKama]

I just stumbled upon your channel when I recognized the Phoenix Area in one of your thumb nails, and its wild to know the locations you guys visited. I live right up the road from Game Smash, and forget its there, but they also do console repairs. Another story you likely visited before given they have three locations, but Fallout Games is a good one to check out.

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks so much for watching! We definitely frequent Fallout Games locations in a lot of our videos as well. It's great to have all of the variety we do in the Valley 😀

[@gabbothegiver]

Epic video🎉🔥🔥, I love it

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks brotha!

[@jasonshouseoffunandvideoga7169]

Great pick ups and continued series. You knocked a ton of those games off the list, persistence and patience pays off. The umbrella resident evil set looks awesome. I didn't know they released that. Seeing lethal enforcers on a arcade, iceing on the cake for me, brings me back to a different time indeed. 🙌✨️

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks Jason! Yeah, the Lethal Enforcers cab is so cool!

[@thepickinpreacher]

I am loving this new fast step thing

[@JRPGLife]

Lol thanks!

[@retro_games_of_time]

Magical quest is an awesome underrated Disney game in my opinion. I had it as a kid loved it. Never was able to beat it but have so much nostalgia to it. You both should def play it and beat it

[@JRPGLife]

Agreed! We need to put some time into it 😀

[@twig-e6431]

I always enjoy going to all of my local mom 'n pop shops, a Half-Price books, or pawn shops. There was a new one in Greenfield, Wisconsin near me, that I checked out yesterday....probably the first new store I've been to the past 3 - 4 years. I even went to my local flea market, the first time since the mid 90's. There definitely was some gnarly stuff! There is a guy that does KZbin vids that lives near my area, and I may check out his stuff at the antique mall.

[@happyguy3013]

Love your videos , amazing as always....I thought it would be cool also to put the prices of the consoles...

[@JRPGLife]

Definitely something to talk about at some point 😀

[@Wheels8504]

Really enjoyed this! Do you ever look for the manuals for the games? They're a must have for me.

[@JRPGLife]

For our own personal collection, yeah. But for the Nintendo Quest, if we find the game AND manual for under $20 total, then maybe 🤔

[@Wheels8504]

@@JRPGLife That makes sense. I thought that's how you were doing the quest. Looking foward to the next video.

[@Eagleknight815]

Great find on magical quest by the way! One of the best games for the Super NES

[@JRPGLife]

We really like it 😀

[@DavisComicFinds]

I’m just upset they didn’t have the mousepad. Still have mine from when I was a kid. So much fun was had. Magical Quest was one of my first games on SNES. My dad brought it home for me and my sister.

[@JRPGLife]

It would have been nice to get one, but oh well. Happy to hear you have some great memories with Magical Quest 😀

[@mathiusoshana4674]

That first place is awesome, the service is amazing, good prices and a lot of different games, i remember playing ps2 and psp back in the day. When I visited the place and found out about all the games he had i bought the psp and ps2 and a lot of games for it, the guy helped me through out the visit and the prices were really good, highly recommend

[@JRPGLife]

That's great!

When it comes to the mouse, as Mills Lane would say, I'll allow it!

[@JRPGLife]

Hahaha thanks!

[@Hellv1n]

Saw that shelf of custom SNES cases and the crazy price and instantly knew it was nothing other than good ol Game Smash

[@JRPGLife]

We were so happy to find all those games there 😀

[@bdillmore40]

Honestly not bad for those 3 games, and the mouse controller! At least i don't think so anyway. All in all great pickups! Loved seeing that Ultimate Muscle Legends vs. New Gen. on Gamecube at the last store!!!!

[@JRPGLife]

Rare Gamecube is always great to see! 😀

[@GamersManuel]

I'm assuming that was the price for Warios Woods for the Nes.

[@jrpgwife]

Oh! That makes much more sense!

[@JRPGLife]

I thought so as well, but the tag said SNES on it 🤷‍♂️

[@undamned]

Mmm, Haus Murphy's. I went there a long time ago and it was excellent! And Tetris Attack is one of my all time favourite puzzle games! I think I've played all the variants except the GBC Pokemon themed one. I also managed to score an unopened Super Famicom Panel de Pon (the original game the other themed versions were based on) 😊

[@JRPGLife]

Awesome! Of course, you would have the CIB Japanese version lol

[@IowaRetroGamerDad]

I got the mouse and Nintendo mouse pad. I got lucky a while back. When I was a kid, my babysitter had it all and Mario Paint was so fun!

[@JRPGLife]

So much nostalgia!

[@MortsGarage]

Glad to see you find all these games, but the way that store had all the SNES games out in the fake cases was awesome looking.

[@JRPGLife]

So true! Very clean display 😀

[@Eagleknight815]

Soapbox! My bookmans is not sketchy! Yes, it's in a sketchy part of town but it's a great place to pick up games! Plus, you have a nice hobby shop there and salad and go!

[@JRPGLife]

Haha you've convinced us!

[@Lithium_82]

Slamming NO DISCOUNTS on every item is crazy though

[@ratzombie]

General Chaos is rad! one of my favorites as a kid

[@JRPGLife]

We need to try it out!

[@albertruggiero1032]

I assume they had the price of the nes wario’s woods on that snes one.

[@Satiator123]

Has she figured out that you can, in fact, fly off the track in F-Zero?? I did something similar early last year and bought a bunch of $20 or less games that I know are worth playing so that there would be a decent selection to play next time my son's interest in my retro collection is peaked.

[@erikjohanson3929]

Magical Quest, just seeing the game being started up got me all fuzzy inside. Me and my brother had a lot of fun with that. It reminds me that I need to rebuy that particular game, shouldn't be to hard to find a copy somewhere.

[@JRPGLife]

It was surprisingly fun 😀 So glad to hear it triggered some nostalgia!

[@suparasukkasem3319]

Wait, I didn't know there was an Alundra 2 ?? The first is amazing, how did I miss part 2, was it released afterthe Playstation 2 came out?

[@JRPGLife]

It came out the year before the ps2, but it reviewed poorly. It's a decent game, but the original is better 😀

[@deathmog91]

hey did you guys hear about book off opening in mesa?

[@JRPGLife]

Yep! We plan on visiting it someday soon 😊

[@brisingr14]

My most recent purchase was God of War III for the ps4. It was just 15 bucks at book off.

[@JRPGLife]

Awesome 😀

[@Retromicky82]

Fantastic pickups though my 2 favourite mickey games on snes are mickey Mania and Mickey no Tokyo Disneyland on super famicom

[@daviddonnell2153]

The reason why they're outrageous is because you have certain KZbinrs on the west coast collecting a NES set and a SNES set. They influence people to go buy certain game because it is something that looks rare and that brings up the hype to purchase the game and prices go up

[@JRPGLife]

Interesting theory, thanks for watching 🙂

nice pickups

Add Magical Mirror Starring Mickey Mouse to the gamecube list. That one should be 20$ or less

I have a full on Simrig, love Gran Turismo as much as I can, as well as arcade racers like F-Zero. I never knew there was only two camps of racing fans. If you haven't tried it yet, since Nintendo is too scared to release a new F-Zero, Fast RMX on the Switch is amazing.

11:52 Re-sealing a previously opened product and pricing it as sealed…that has to be considered scummy business practice. Am I wrong here?

[@JRPGLife]

You are right on, but I honestly believe that Bookmans just doesn't know exactly what to look for regarding authentic seals

[@tysonpestner]

That’s a fair assessment. I think I would fall under the opinion that as a business, ignorance is ultimately not a valid excuse for selling something like that to a customer who might also not know it’s not authentically sealed at the sealed price. It’s better than intentionally knowing it’s not authentic but not by much. P.s.- enjoy the videos you make and your collection process.

My pet peeve (and it happens in other KZbin channels so please don’t take any offense) is why pronounce “Jaguar” as “Jaguire”. I mean it’s an Atari console not a Tom Cruise romantic drama film. 😜
