I am sure a lot of you know VGDS does some excellent work on bringing everyone's channel logos to life on his dust sleeves. But did you know you can purchase other friends sleeves from him as well? How about the custom work he does with specific games and 3D sleeves? Please check out his channel for the VGDS podcast and hit him up on social media to place an order or have him do something new for you. Check out the channels of my friends whose sleeves i picked up in this video below. They are all making fun content and you will enjoy.

Thank you as always for the support! Appreciated.

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Dude! Anytime at all! I will likely have something new soon for you to look at. You do excellent work buddy. 🍻🤙🏻

[@VideoGameDustSleevesVGDS]

@@DrinkGameswithJosh ill be here waiting. Haha.

[@coopleofnerds]

Vgds always does great work. I need to hit up the trade section more in the retro collective. Some awesome trades. I need to give game gear a second chance now that i have the analogue mega sg.

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

VGDS does awesome work! I have something else I am thinking about having him do soon too. Might be a cool one. 😉 You absolutely do need to check out some trades with the group. Lots of cool things moving around for a ton of systems and all the folks are very generous and very cool. 🤙🏻

[@Gold2thGaming]

Ive been to south vagina but never tasted the beers mine was from a furry cup,arts & crafts special video with some cool items 🍻💪

[@pappabeargaming]

South vagina is cool, gets goofy in North Vagina, things aren’t where they should be!😂😂

[@Gold2thGaming]

@@nostalgialane2684 No definitely Vagina 🤪👅

[@pappabeargaming]

@@nostalgialane2684😂😂😂 you’ve never been?! North vagina is where it gets scary!

[@Gold2thGaming]

It takes some licking the place i went, i do know that

[@themanboycave122]

That’s awesome how you support and promote the community. We need more of that on KZbin.

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

We absolutely do! I love sharing this hobby with all of you. Love watching everyone’s videos and seeing there pickups and adventures. Cheers buddy! 🍻

[@GenerationPixel]

Some very cool stuff, but the Gear Master is an excellent acquisition 😎👍

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Absolutely dude! Really cool way to play my SMS games. Think I need to modernize the screen on my game gear though. 🤣

[@DadRacer]

Super awesome stuff from Kiwi, Retro Projections, and Mega Buster! Love the 3D printed stuff and the Game gear games. The flask was a thoughtful touch.

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Always a pleasure reading with any of the folks in the RC! It’s really been cool being in the Discord and getting to know everyone. 🤙🏼

[@GamerAhmer]

Love the dust sleeves! Definitely heard a lot of things are going on the shelf! Is it time for a game room tour?! Would love to see everything displayed. 😁

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

I know…I know…I need to get off my butt and do a game room tour. 🤣 I just don’t know if I feel like I have anything that’s all that special to share other than that its just my happy place. 🤷‍♂️

[@BuzzsawGaming]

Nice stuff man! Cool channels as well! Thanks for the video man! Oh and the beer looks good too! 🦎

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Thanks dude! A lot of great people with channels on KZbin and our little Retro Collective discord trade group is a pretty special part of it. This was an amazing beer to go along with some amazing trades too. 🍻

[@Real_Sgt_Tom]

Wow those Gold Tengen sleeves match up really well. Love this cool community!

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

To be honest he does a great job with all the sleeves he makes, and he really did a nice job with the Tengen sleeves and all the custom stuff he does. Check him out and if you do let me know. I will pick up a sleeve. This community is the reason for spending the time to make any videos. Love chatting with you all and sharing the hobby. 🍻🤙🏻

[@RetroRivals]

Some absolute great dust sleeves. Keep meaning to get some.... I got to get on that. Awesome trades with the community and that Mario Party game that was sent along as a gift. So nice 8-bit do controllers are amazing! You will not be disappointed. Trust me.

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

You totally need to get sleeved! I will definitely pick one up for my collection if you do. He does some cool work and he will sleeve any style of game too. Have a custom slip cover made for one of your favorite horror or rpg games. 🤷‍♂️ I love this community! The discords I am part of, the polo chat groups and the general comments here on KZbin really make it such a special way to share this hobby. Glad to have you all as friends. 🍻

[@DoYouNerd]

I mean, the content IS good, but we're totally here for that smile! 😁 Hey, thanks for adding a dust sleeve to the collection! Love the work VGDS does. Still trying to get Lady Laci to let him sell the special 3D sleeve but she still says no. 😂😂 Awesome community here! And dude, that Sega converter is great. I loved all the stuff they did like that; what a time in gaming!

[@VideoGameDustSleevesVGDS]

Thank you, man everyone refers to that sleeve. 😂🤣

[@DoYouNerd]

@@VideoGameDustSleevesVGDSLOL it's a classic! Maybe someday she'll cave. LOL

[@VideoGameDustSleevesVGDS]

@@DoYouNerd that's an understatement. That sleeve seems to be most talked about. 😂 She will never cave. 😂 Maybe one day without the 3D effect. 🤔

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

The 3D effect is what makes it most special. That’s reserved for Tom only! 🤣

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

The community is the real reason KZbin is special. Otherwise what’s the point? I have so many friends that I have yet to meet from all over the world. 🤙🏻

[@pappabeargaming]

Sweet trades, I like the cartridge trays from Mega Buster Retro. I got a few myself. I need to set myself up with some dust sleeves. I’ve gotten a few already from folks. Mario Party is awesome! Great addition. Nice Flask from the Flask Collector!

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Mega Buster makes some really cool 3D prints. Almost wish I could learn how to do that stuff just to make cool things for the game room. I recommend VGDS for some sleeves. He will do custom things as well. Quality work all around. Such a great bunch of fellas here In the community to trade and socialize with. At some point you and I need to do a trade too. 🍻

[@pappabeargaming]

@@DrinkGameswithJosh I reached out to him last night. I'll be placing an order. 😄

[@MockingjayYT]

Now that's a potent beer! 🍻 Very cool flask.

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

For as potent as this brew is it’s super smooth. Goes down very easy. 🤣 Love the flask and all the trades. The RC hooks it up again! 🍻

[@matcam89]

Very nice gifts and trades, it truly is a great community- very nice of Kiwi for Mario Party such a great game!

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Heck yeah man! I love this community and being able to share the experience with you all. One day maybe you and I can make a trade too. I have some spare PS3 sitting on the trade shelf. 😉 DM me on X or Instagram if your interested.

[@matcam89]

Absolutely i am going away on a business trip but ill connect with you when i get back!@@DrinkGameswithJosh

[@rayh7105]

Beer, and community. Haha I love it. Not just youtube, everything should be about beer and community.

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

I couldn’t agree more! 🤣 Stoked to be a part of it and to raise a glass with you all. 🍻

[@retroprojections]

Master System.. Game Gear.. same thing! I mean.. YEAH Wonderful video, I love seeing all the creative stuff people make and think of! What KZbin is all about indeed!!! 🍻🕹️👾

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Uh yeah…I am getting old and the brain doesn’t work like it used to. 🤣 KZbin really is about the connections we make with one another. Otherwise why out the effort in if you can’t share with new and old friends alike. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@TheGameroomAwakens]

Some slick stuff mate! Really like those 8bitdo controllers. 😁👍

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Always a pleasure trading with everyone in the community. Especially the RC guys!

[@LameDadRetroGamer]

Ive really been meaning to get with video games dust sleeves and get some mads, he really does great work.

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

For real dude! Chris does a great job with these. He will make whatever design you want and for whatever system you want. He does some great custom work too! 🤙🏼

[@atcandotherthings4985]

Wireless super Nintendo controller ? What a concept

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

A novel concept…but a cool one indeed! 🤙🏻

[@RetroEdUK]

Some awesome sleeves Josh particularly the Miketendo one 😍 Really spruces up the tengen collection. Great to get the gear master mate and love the master system titles. Amazing stuff 👊👍😊🍺

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

VGDS does a really cool job with these dust sleeves. Awesome guy with a cool side hustle for sure. 🤙🏻 The Tengen sleeves really pop don’t they? I may have to see what other styles he does similiar to those. The gear master is very cool indeed. Stoked to be able to play my SMS games that way. I think I am gonna upgrade my Game Gear screen soon too. Give them the proper treatment. 🤣 Cheers Ed! Have a great week d buddy. 🍻

[@IowaRetroGamerDad]

Josh! The main man of the community! I still look at the PS4 box you sent me and love having every sony box now! Great video dude. I love VGDS too!

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

I am very happy knowing that you have that box and I was able to help you get it! 🤙🏻 VGDS does such cool work on everyone’s channel sleeves and his custom work is fantastic too.

[@8232Bittzz]

Awesome Trades bud! without the community it's just games and they wouldn't be nearly as fun. The needle is moving quickly for the NES set. You've gotten into some stuff recently that's push my knowledge limits. I'm waiting on Playmoore's Game Gear Screen to come in before we under go surgery. Depending on home it goes I'd be more than willing to be up for another. cheers bud! 🍻🍻

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Couldn’t have said it better myself. If not for you and a couple of others,I most likely would have stopped making videos after just a couple of months. I have definitely been pushing hard on the NES and N64 sets but I still need some substantial titles that will either cost me or I will need to be lucky. 🤣 I am looking forward to hearing how the game gear mod for Josh goes man. Almost the weekend now! Cheers! 🍻

[@Pjvenom1985]

I'm not a advocate of alcohol personally of course more of a straight edge boyo drugs wise generally speaking, but I do enjoy hearing a little about the locations/where they come from on your videos, as for the gaming & community aspects I'm 100% with ya, I'm not even a collector but every time I see trading or good folk in the community getting a game they've been after a long time it puts a smile on my dodgey Irish mush!😁 Great video Josh good man stay safe!🕹💪🍀

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

I totally understand that buddy. I say live an let live and just enjoy what you enjoy. I think that’s a big part of the craft scene when it comes to beer. The locations, the breweries, the beer and the people are all unique. It’s a reason I have fallen in love with it to be true. 🍻 Same as the game collecting. It’s just as special to me to be able to share the gaming and collecting experience with everyone as it is to play the games sometimes. Thank you as always for taking your time and watching my foolishness. 🤙🏻

[@marcgoesblindgaming2076]

Those dust sleeves and that sega Game tray are awesome , I had no idea there was a converter To play master system games on a game gear So that's great , Now you can enjoy some Is master system rpg action , Enjoy that delicious beer Josh

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Stoked to be able to play the SMS games on the game gear. The converter is awesome! Some primo trades here with everyone and what a gift from Kiwi too! Oh man…very solid brew here for sure! No punches pulled in my enthusiasm for it. 🤣 I really like what VGDS does with these sleeves he makes. He does some great custom work too. 🤙🏻

[@LindaTheGAMERGal]

Yasssssss!

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Whoop whoop! Linda! 🍻🤙🏼

[@AngryDadGaming]

Hahah, oh geez, those tripels…listen, early on in my ‘beer exploration career’, I picked up a tripel or so, drank one after a long day at work, and felt completely sh*tfaced. I was like, “…what the hell, what’s IN this beer?!”, and then I noticed it was 10.6! I was like, “oh, no wonder…I just drank practically ‘two’ beers in a half hour.” 😂 Damn, man…I’m always impressed how much you’re willing to invest into your collection. I mean, the fact that you had your own DUST SLEEVES made for each Tengen game is insane! I won’t ask how much that cost you, but I’m sure it was enough! 😅 Haha, you rock Josh! Stay cool dude! 🤘

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Dude! I know right?! Some of these craft styles can be surprising how potent they are. 🍻 A couple of my wife’’s cousins like to rag on me about the beer I drink. 😂 They pull that “I can drink beer all day” shit. I am like…c’mon man. That Coors light shit is like drinking water. It takes 3 of those 12oz to get where I get off of a pint of this stuff. 🤣 To be honest it’s not that expensive to have the dust sleeves made by VGDS. But I guess it’s perspective. 🤷‍♂️ I could have bought a couple of cool games with the dough but I think it’s cool and it also supports a small business from a good guy here in our community. As always thank you my brother for watching my nonsense and for being a cool member of our little gaming community. Cheers buddy! 🍻

[@Mega-Matt21]

That mega man master system game! and another mega man inspired channel!?!?! 😯😯😯

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Heck yeah dude! Right up your alley for sure. Love this community! Thanks for being a great part of it Matt. 🍻

[@Owazrim]

The Gear adatper for SMS is a nice thing to have. Miracle warriors crystal warriors no biggy. Some nice trades and pickups.

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

Thanks buddy. This community continues to be pretty special. Stoked to have this adapter. Think I am gonna have a new screen put on my game gear soon too. Love that I can play them that way and these two RPG’s are gonna be fun to play. 🍻

[@Owazrim]

I picked up a modded GG with new screen and av out years ago. It has since been replaced by the Mega SG and the GG adapter. lol

[@backinthedaygamer]

I may mentioned this b4 but I have a Tengen Tetris box that I’d like to trade… I don’t collect boxes but when I bought it it was the only one and I wanted it bad lol

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

What would you be looking to trade for it? Hit me up on a DM on Twitter and we can see if we can figure something out, I actually already have the manual and the cart so it would be cool to have.

[@backinthedaygamer]

@@DrinkGameswithJosh So I see there's been NO sales on ebay for 18 months so I'm going to see if I can hit the lotto. Sorry lol

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

🤣😂🤣

[@backinthedaygamer]

@@DrinkGameswithJosh FYI it sold for $40

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

@@backinthedaygamer I know…I bid it up to $40 and lost.
