Do you think we will EVER find Barbie Groom & Glam Pups in person? Comment below!

[@cicerothenekoknightplaysall]

I think you're more likely to find it at a con like you found the Louv game

[@indy5280]

Or you have to go to Canada and pray

[@samt7756]

No because as a lapsed 3DS collector, I’m going to be the one finding it first hahaha. Seriously though , I did see it at a convention last year but for like $800 over pricecharting/last sold :-o it was then I decided, I’m good with my collection. I got to hold it at least though which was nice. You have the Louvre (?) which is a 3DS exclusive and a way cooler collection piece imho. I have an actual grey Louvre 3DS XL used before the changeover to the cooler purple ones so I counted that as my final “big” piece haha

[@indy5280]

@@samt7756 You might be better off getting the Pal version of Barbie Groom & Glam Pups as that goes for closer to $140ish if you don’t mind it being a pal version

[@Deadlock2896]

you might be able to find it but overprice af

[@indy5280]

Great finds. Rest in peace Hermie. He reminds me of an old cat I had. Also from 2003 who passed at the age of 13

[@jrpgwife]

It's been devastating without her. She was always sweet, gentle, and a ray of sunshine every day for 21 years.

[@RwnEsper]

Very nice looking store. RIP Hermie! 21 years is a really good life for a cat, our furbaby turns 20 this summer.

[@JoeFpoc]

I love Stella glow on the 3ds. My second most played game on there behind dragon quest 8, such an amazing title.

[@vinylreckoning]

Seth is a stand up guy. Also, sorry for your loss, truly heartbreaking to lose our pets.

[@JRPGLife]

Thank you so much 🙂

[@rjbishop6128]

That's not a shop, it's a dream library of games :o

Haha right?!

[@zfairley18]

Holy shite, I did not know they opened one of these in Mesa. My wife and I had our honeymoon this past October in Japan and loved going to all the off stores. Thanks for the PSA, can’t wait to stop by! Also, we got to briefly meet you both at Game On a couple months ago. Love the content guys!

[@JRPGLife]

Love to hear about the Japan honeymoon, we spent ours there as well! Thanks so much for watching 😀

[@ThyGreenKnight]

I love Book Off. I've been building my Famicom and Super Famicom libraries from there. (pro tip. Remove one game from the storage bin so you can flip through all the games in the bin more quickly, but don't forget to put the one game back when done.)

[@oopartsw911]

Sorry about Hermie, guys. I’m in the same boat with ya. My pup passed away just a few days ago.

[@JRPGLife]

So sorry for your loss 😔

[@superdave3093]

Great video guys! Heard good stuff about Book Off wish I had one in my state. So sorry about your kitty Hermies that sucks. Sorry about your loss 😢 🙏

[@NemoCat20]

So sorry for your loss ❤️ Lost our kitties at 17 and 18. 21 years is amazing. 💖 Just started following you both. Local AZ person and I have been to Book Off. Amazing store!! Love we have gotten so many cool Japanese stores.

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks so much for watching! Book Off is great! It's about time we get some quality Japanese stores out here in the Valley 😅

[@jasonshouseoffunandvideoga7169]

Great vid as always. My condolences on your loss. No words will ever fill the void that a loss of something you truly care about. It's nice to know that folks do take the time to say so though. ♥️🕯💔 2 more to go! Getting closer to achieving your complete collection. ☝️🙌🤔

[@CicadaStan]

RIP to Hermie, sorry to hear about your loss guys. Stay strong and much love! ✌️

[@Gameingsince87]

So sorry for your loss and congrats on knocking down list even more

[@kometlf-2246]

Sorry to hear about Hermie. I know how it is. But love the videos! Can’t wait to see yall finish the 3DS collection

[@Skifictious]

....I'm back! Great video, well edited and good arc. Also sorry for your loss, RIP Hermie

[@phile6889]

The CC would have to stay with the Mrs.... I would spend a fortune in there! and condolences for your cat 😥

[@AnotherWatchChannel]

I had a marketplace deal lined up last year for the Barbie Pups game to buy for $5. All we had to do was meet up. Then he decided to look up the game on price charting… FML… lmao. He told me earlier this year he sold it for $3700. Made for a good laugh.

[@JRPGLife]

So close!

[@RetroHoundGaming]

Oh no I just finished the video…I’m sorry about your loss you two sincerely ….rest in peace Hermie

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks so much 😔

[@dannyjordan7530]

Love the videos. I like to watch a bunch and take a shot every time Dan says “adorable”! Keep up the great work. I just watched a few. Feeling pretty good! 🤣🤣

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks so much 😀

[@woah56]

I just bought a 3ds thanks to ur channel

[@JRPGLife]

Hopefully you enjoy it! 😀

[@Itwasme007]

The chrono trigger statue was beautiful

[@TheInfiniteMiseryJumper]

Much love Hermie 🙏💛 Great video as always guys, and what an amazing store! It's kind of wild how much more expensive Groom & Glam is is over there, you can pick it up for under 100 all day long in the PAL territories. Good luck with the rest of the hunt!

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks so much 😀

Thank you so much 🥹

[@closrod8856]

RIP Hermie. I know how it is to lose a beloved cat. 😢

[@MaxH0ward]

It was really cool to see you guys check out the new book off. I went there in march and personally felt they were kinda overpriced. I saw several things i wanted that were way above ebay. And the book offs ive been to in california werent anywhere that expensive. But its still a cool store

[@lordcheesus1013]

Congrats on the game finds today! I'm glad you found the box for Transformers. Transformers: Prime is one of my favorite shows for that IP. I didn't even know they had games for that show until I started watching KZbin shows like yours.

[@JRPGLife]

Very cool!

[@UAF_ViVi]

I'm so jealous at the amount of video game stores you have over in the USA. In Australia, its rare to see a specialty store like that one in this video. We get EB games (our version of Gamestop) and maybe another big boring vendor that don't do retro and that's just about it.

[@NoiseCommander3DS]

Right, I saw book off on Japan but you have them in the us? I am jealous

[@6door6four96]

Sorry for your loss guys! Truly heartbreaking to lose a pet let alone one you have had with you for such a long time when we had to put my last childhood dog down 3 years ago i was super sad but after a few months i went and bought the same type of puppy i still miss him everyday but my new boy reminds me of him all the time

[@JRPGLife]

Thank you for the sweet story 😊

[@Earthling247]

That store is great. So much good stuff for sale. You guys are quite lovable, if you ever wanna adopt an older gentleman, I’ll volunteer.🤣 Glad y’all got to pickup some nice finds. ✌️❤️

[@hirux2659]

Man, wish there were places like this closer to where i live. The places I see streamers going to are so clean! The places around me are nowhere close to the amount of stock and variety, makes me want to just reach into my screen and grab a few of those games, figures, etc. :)

[@cicerothenekoknightplaysall]

Ah hell yeah Don't even need to watch it yet it's already going to be a Banger

[@sethtanner1]

Thx for the feature! Can’t wait to meet you at Sege this year!!

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks for the games! 😀

[@midnightpanthora]

Aw your cat is so cute may he rest in peace, I had a black cat too called Cleo. Wow 21 years is a great age for a cat. I can't believe you've nearly finished your collection that's awesome!

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks so much! Hermie was a treasure and she will be missed for a very long time 😔

[@Eagleknight815]

I gotta go check out Book Off. Between you and Nick (1up games) - seen two videos now for them and looks like a great place for some finds! RIP Hermie and hugs to the you both.

Thank you for your kind words, as always! 🙂

Most likely to find at a con or game shop RIP Hermie, Lost Oz 18-05-24, rescue cat, prob be 14-16yrs old.

That’s chrono trigger statue is AMAZING definitely my favorite game of all time and most nostalgic!

The 3DS is one of the best handhelds. I feel bad for people who get "motion sickness" from the 3D

[@JRPGLife]

I do at times 🤢

[@gabbothegiver]

That book off is Pack wooo, great scores🎉🎉

[@jasongarner5980]

I didn’t know about a Book Off in Mesa. A bit of a haul from Peoria but definitely worth it once in a while. I just brought back a ton Super Famicom games from Japan last summer. Thanks for the heads up!

[@JRPGLife]

Absolutely! It's worth the drive 😀

[@waltsoph3]

WOOT! YAY!!! Looks like you guys had a really good day ! 😃 What a selection! Man I wish there was a store like this in my area. Still awesome job guys can't wait for more!😁 ( P.S. I'm truly sorry to hear about the loss of Hermie. May your cat rest in peace. )
