If you can never make it to a convention I'm attending, I also sell my stuff online johnriggs.myshopify.com/

[@SchnazzyVideo]

John, just found your channel based on looking for conventions all throughout WA. Mostly an arcade game collector but might expand NES. I see you like Bagman as well. I have a restored one and a SuperBagman that doesn't need restoring. Love those games. Great Channel!

[@bok3rnes425]

I love the Video game Expo like this where they show you a lot of Old school catalogue games. Keeping the old school vibes and good memories alive. Great Adventure John❤❤❤

[@hayabusa8314]

Always wonderful to see and chat with you this last weekend John!

[@silverian]

Great to see Game expo footage!

[@jarridkamphenkel2117]

Thanks for the Ardenfall exposure and the great conversations, John! Oh! And the awesome NES Cart Air Freshener!

[@adampaulausky2044]

When you were looking at the wall of games in plastic bags it kinda reminded me of video power I think when it became a game show and at the end a player would run through aisles of video games and stick them to their vests

[@Meshonik]

I was there on Saturday, it was a solid show. Can't wait for the years to come and see how it evolves.

[@JLAvey]

I tried going to an expo there once. When I arrived it was raining and the line went around the block. I turned around and returned home.

[@DavidWhitley]

good to see Kelsey smiling.

[@TravisMCP]

Had no idea they had this in Puyallup Dang, I have to go next year.

[@JohnRiggs]

Yeah, same guys who do summer con, anime con, and soon that horror con. Next year for sure.

[@tylerpemberton3134]

18:58 drop dead fred is fn awesome

[@disparityband]

the devils daughter is great, and from my previous experience not on dvd. on point timing,

[@soundertillidie]

Graham games is the best retro store in the Puget Sound...period

[@TLEberle]

Glad to see you pronounced Puyalluo correctly.:@)

[@Raz3rPVP]

17:24 you got me playing that shooter game lol man I'm so bummed I didn't see you

[@krisfrederick5001]

Video Game Expo at a Fair?! That's cheating like Game Genie! Just like records, it's mind blowing how many video games exist. You could never hear or play them all, that's the beauty but also somewhat depressing in the same vein. You may never hear your favorite song, or play your favorite game. Thanks John for bringing us along as always.

[@pigs18]

Grotesque was G1, but at the tail end. I don't think he was released in time to be on the US cartoon. He was part of a line that had a sparkwheel that you flick to make sparks come out of their mouths. Unfortunately the gimmick meant that the center part had to be solid. This led to the derogatory term "shellformer" where only the outer pieces were used in a robot's transformation.

[@mtshark7]

Awesome stuff John!

[@capcomfan11]

That event is badass, met solid snake david hayter.

[@gyorg3407]

great video john, you always make these expo vids extremely entertaining, thank you :D

[@SquarePegs]

Castle of Cagliostro would be an insta-buy for me.

[@Bigcat253]

So mad i missed this and it was only like 15 min away from me could have met you and kelsey and cody!

[@fritzzorn9086]

Romance of the Three Kingdoms is possibly my favourite series. I got into it via the PS2 entries, but XIII on PS4 is one of the best, especially if you get the PUK dlc.

[@tardiscommand1812]

Forget the stack, take the rack!

[@CastIronRestore]

KORG synth for the DS....I had no idea such a thing existed..will be looking for that

[@UnknownArtist1984]

Riggs getting all the deals 😂

[@AngryStraightWhiteMale]

4:33 two favorites of mine….BIG TIDDIES & DBZ

[@bradbla]

Faces of Death monkey brains scene scared me for life. People are monsters.

[@kikacruz4560]

It wasn't real. It was just a fake scene done very well, look it up

[@Mega-Matt21]

see you at MGC this weekend!

[@blahmcblahface3965]

McCease and McDesist incoming 😂

[@supadab]

IT WAS A BLAST!!!!!

[@ike-2357]

hey @JohnRiggs you should shop at new 2 you, its a location in port orchard washington that sells retro games, and a whole lot of other stuff, bought many things from there over the years. its in the process of relocating, soon it will be open its already moved, the finishing touches are almost done.

[@jhighturntup5558]

Never thought I would hear someone say they like the subtitles but to each their own.. ✌

[@JohnRiggs]

So much seems lost when they're forced into an english dub.

[@jhighturntup5558]

@@JohnRiggsAhh I see well not really Unfortunately im kinda blind , I have a macular degeneration that's the only reason I don't like trying to read the subtitles... But yeah There is a lot less than transition.. lol

[@scootsmutny2681]

You never bring up Starblazers😢

[@jamesdean9957]

Whoa… how did I miss this?

[@capcomfan11]

I hope by summercon those vendors that sell vdeogames and horor action figures return.

[@treedeblue]

Riggs showing Washington some love

[@RandyBandana]

That power rangers VHS green ranger with Tommy on the cover.....🤘

[@crazyadventuresandreviews]

At 15:54 you got a pic with Tobey maguire. Cool I didn’t know he was into retro games.

[@VDRP]

I want a McMess Around! Is that legal in Canada? BTW: Great to see Kelsey!!!

[@HECTORMONTALVO-le9cn]

So many games! But oh those VHS...Faces Of Death and Many Taboos Of Death! You don't know how hard these shockumentaries are to find today and are not available on disc. I had like 25 of those and sold them for like $200 back in the day now I'm sorry. I think I would need my grocery cart because of how much I'll buy lol!🤣 Thanks for sharing your adventures at the expo for those of us that can't go John!👉🙂👈

[@randyvoid155]

wicked city had a ton of uh....nudity.

[@mjdf122]

John Riggs back on the hunt at the convention/expo

[@masterroshi9942]

Whoa you got some great nes titles there Jon that's great

[@john-michaelbecker3365]

Someone ran over a nes cart with a rollercoaster!! Can you fix it???!!!

[@rufnek3124]

100 for metal storm its a bargain for that title

[@ggbetz]

Disney Sing Alongs were amazing! But then my parents would get mad when we sang during the movies!

[@JohnRiggs]

That's the literal point! lolol

[@ggbetz]

@@JohnRiggs explains why we didn't get that many!

[@HillMu1975]

Had too much going on to go this year, hope it goes next year.

[@64bitRewind]

A loose copy of Mike Tyson’s Punch Out is really going for $45 these days? 😮 Damn, I’ve been living under a rock!

[@tylerpemberton3134]

World cup is not super dodge ball....but i think more replayability

[@adampaulausky2044]

Do you make Nintendo coasters or coasters of bootleg or repro games

[@EternalLoveAnkh]

I just subscribed! Are you going to SEGE? RJ

[@HBW87]

Hey John, are you planning to go to Retropalooza in Houston in May?

[@JohnRiggs]

I'm not.

[@joseph_b319]

Didn't want to grab one of those Silent Service games?

[@JohnRiggs]

I need ALL the silent service games

[@mattmania8117]

All the best deals happen before doors open.

[@JohnRiggs]

True. So many Vendor to Vendor.

[@JunkerDC]

$175 dang you rich !!!!!

[@feelsbad6312]

Have you ever been in any fights or scuffles at any of these cons??

[@JohnRiggs]

Never. And don't plan on it. Trolls talk big behind keyboards but will never actually do anything or say anything to your face. So not yet, I should say.

[@alex64gaming]

I wish they would have these expos in king county. Way too far from my area

[@johnDingoFoxVelocity]

Didn't bother going I'm sorry I'm not spending 330 per person to go to a gaming EXPO it was sad that all of there vendors could have been making bank at sakuracon and the only seller there selling imports games and media made off a millionaire by the end of the event because everyone wanted his stuff and no one wanted to go to the gaming EXPO plan a different date next time

[@frieddata]

The 3 day pass was only $95

[@johnDingoFoxVelocity]

@frieddata advertised online was 330.00 for the family pass not talking single passes and I can go to sakuracon for 70.00 for three days which is way cheaper.

[@frieddata]

@@johnDingoFoxVelocity well you said "330 per PERSON" a family pass is different

[@masterchief247]

You gotta change your ad settings man. WAY to many ads for a 23 minute video. Literally a commercial every 3 minutes. Terrible.

[@JohnRiggs]

Did you actually get a commercial every 3 minutes? KZbin is supposed to pick and choose so it wouldn't play all.

[@lady1kaka]

KZbin is practically UNUSABLE without Premium or AdBlocker nowadays...

[@bjmanzey]

Seems like a you problem, I had no issues and I definitely don’t pay for KZbin premium

[@alex64gaming]

Just pay for KZbin premium. No ads. It’s way better

[@jdmartin4293]

Didn’t happen to me at all 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@tabsntoot]

Hey cool
