[@Publishedreamypoet]

[@HenryLaPierre]

Original Nocturne, followed closely by the Japanese release of Persona.

[@LupusWarrior55]

Snowboard Kids DS (it has Jack Frost in it) is it in your collection? Haha

[@jrpgwife]

​@@LupusWarrior55 yes!

[@davidtobin1]

The editing in this episode was excellent! Great music choices too. 👍👍👍

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks so much for the kind words 😀

[@SkyGuy_123]

The cover art on Jack Bros is one of my favorites

[@JRPGLife]

It's so awesome!

[@lostworldvideogames]

6:15 Flight of the Navigator on Laserdisc probably looks amazing!

[@pnx_world]

The deals were great at Rick’s con love how you did the ending it came out really good! perfect music choice

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks so much for saying so Xavi 😊

[@Kiekie2018]

A video from Retro ricks con that wasn’t titled all about retro Rick? And they accuse you guys of clickbait, forget those haters! You guys rock 🤘

[@rodflounder]

I got to hold that sealed jack bros before it was sent in for grading

[@JRPGLife]

Dang!

[@Publishedreamypoet]

Was nice to meet y'all! I was the guy with the FFVI sleeve. It was so packed and crazy that it was hard to stand still. Thanks for the autographs as well!

[@JRPGLife]

Awesome! Thanks for saying hi, it was great meeting you as well! 😊

[@JustinBarcellos-fp5qc]

I hope you guys go to Japan. I look forward to watching those adventures.

[@JRPGLife]

We hope to go again soon! It's been 9 years since our last trip 😵‍💫

[@LatashaMoore-y7r]

This is my favorite channel

[@GamerAhmer]

Great addition! Still looking for that one myself!

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks! Good luck with your hunt 😊

[@RadJunk]

Glad I could help! 😬

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks so much for the deal!

[@weeziepuff13]

I bought a Virtual Boy from Blockbuster back in the day that came with Jack Bros in the box! $50 total. Wish I hadn't sold it now. Jack Bros was definitely my favorite Virtual Boy game

[@HenryLaPierre]

In case you're interested and weren't aware, Nocturne had a physical card game whereby starter packs were packaged with 1 of 3 carded action figures (Main, Chiaki, or Isamu).

[@deathmog91]

Hey if your free next weekend there an anime con down in tucson. It called con-nichiwa.

[@slightwork1681]

Happy Sunday! Have a great week!

[@zevzero]

Oh man! I have that old Pikachu. My mom got it for me at Babbages. It has been sitting on my game shelf since I was a kid. That really took me back. Great video! I really need to get out to a con

[@DitchDr101]

I remember the trailer for Fire in the Sky scaring me as a kid 😂

[@samuelbussieres8961]

Love fire in the sky, its gotta have the best if not the best in cinema alien abduction scene, that 12 minutes is frightening with the "experiment" theybare doing on the main dude

[@JRPGLife]

Right?! Too bad the best part doesn't show up until like the last 25% of the movie lol

[@cucumbercountry4634]

Phoenix Resale jumpscare

[@JRPGLife]

😅

[@cutekeyboard]

WOAH! Dragonology?! I've never played it - but my folks got the books for me as a kid? Like at Borders years and years ago. Honestly - I'm now going to have to pick that up just because I had the books when I was a kid. I didn't even know they made a game?! So wild.

[@MSUHitman]

If you ever come to STL for a convention, the store I play Magic at, Bodach’s Games, has Jack Bros. ESRB CIB. It’s a combo tabletop/videogame store.

[@Fakeditto]

Astro bot for 25 is literally robbing them blind, that game is so good!!

[@JRPGLife]

It was the PSVR Astro Bot, not the new PS5 one, so the price was fair 🙂

[@TheFleaX]

I picked up a loose copy of Jack Bros about 10 years ago for $70, so glad I got it when I did. I own a Complete set of US VB games. I thought about going after the exclusive ones only released in Japan but a few of those are impossible to find.

[@MaxH0ward]

10:00 i didnt know there was a dragonology game but as a kid i had this big book called dragononology that im guessing the game was based on

[@IowaRetroGamerDad]

You flipped right by Explorers in the Lazer Discs! Such a great movie!! Fire in the Sky is crazy. Really freaked me out.

[@KingKozak-e2t]

Ssshhhh

[@smolborbbeads]

your guys smt collection is so cool!!☆▽☆ i had no idea there was a PQ 3DS collector box thingy!! :o

[@Aerialslayer]

Congrats on the Jack Bros find guys!!

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks so much!

[@NORDIC_WOLF]

excellent video!❤

[@jamezclements2670]

Y’all are the DS gods! I’m looking for Blue Dragon Plus CIB. Haven’t hadn’t any luck in the past two year. If you ever find I would love to pay you for it!

[@alexi111]

3:05 🤣

[@DanielNostalgicBitz]

ive always wanted to get a virtual boy but one day i will ! 🤠👍

[@accuracy146]

"I thought I smelled a handheld" lmao

[@shoheiimamura4067]

Make your vids longer! The fans want more.

[@BOXERCRAZYBROWNCLOWN]

I feel ya on finding games on the virtual boy, I have only one, mario tennis japanese version

[@theretrobeard]

That’s a nice hand in that thumbnail. 😆

[@JRPGLife]

It was the PERFECT model 😀

[@midnightpanthora]

I love flight of the navigator hope you find on laser disc one day! 80s had the best fantasy/scifi movies: flight of the navigator, Willow, never ending story, legend, dark crystal, Labryinth, Krull, princess bride, gremlins, ghostbusters and many many more. Secret of Nimh is great too, read that as a kid great book.

[@Vehl]

Kings field series is my favorite Playstation Series. Wish they would make another one. =/

[@HenryLaPierre]

Have loved the Kings Field series since the 1st was released in Japan and kept the fondness through the Shadow Tower and the Souls games.

[@STEVEGOTITPOOL]

You Are THE NAVIGATOR!!!

[@TheoConway]

eatman is like an older version of trigun

[@OasisHank]

Hey it’s still jack bros! I was here and never saw the graded one either

[@daviddonnell2153]

I got Jack Bros in the late 90s when it was cheap at EB games. I cannot believe the price tag on it now.

[@JRPGLife]

Very cool!

[@ramiet16]

I have played P3P, P4G, and P5R and really loved them with Persona 5 Royal being my favorite (probably biased as it was my first). I just got Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance in SteelBook so I’m excited to try out that series for the first time!

[@JRPGLife]

Awesome! Have fun!

[@sonicichigo5962]

Wow the house of the dead had a vinil i love that game series

[@WavesNGames]

The Secret Of NIMH is a film you watch once as a child and never forget a moment of. I think they call that trauma these days.

[@JRPGLife]

😅

[@dudeway4606]

In the Japanese version of Jack Bros. you can swap the in game text from Japanese to English by entering L trigger + R trigger + Left D-Pad Left direction + Start on the title screen. You're welcome 😊

[@JRPGLife]

Yep! That's exactly why we were totally fine with picking up the Japanese version in the first place. Such a great feature! 😀

[@stashmerkin9576]

The Keep on laserdisc! The book was better but the movie was pretty good.

[@deathbob091]

eatman is one of the most underrated animes

[@JRPGLife]

We haven't heard of it until this trip!

[@ArkansasPicker]

Fire in the Sky is AWESOME!

[@JRPGLife]

Right?!

[@Xtrafix2015]

lol I saw a video when pixel game squad asked ppl what console is worst and rad junk said virtual boy😂 not that I know much about it but great choice ❤

[@mysticaria4029]

Any chance you guys will be at the Sac gamers expo? Seems a little far for you but just thought i'd ask anyways. Would be neat to meet you both!

[@JRPGLife]

Unfortunately not, but maybe some year 😊

[@PeperonyChease]

You think they bothered to release the Virtual Boy in Europe?

[@mjdf122]

JRPGLife at Retro Rick’s convention/expo get those games

[@kittykatcupcakke2518]

Do y'all have Boktai Sun is In Your Hand? I had it and was young and sold it and regret getting rid of it. It was a big reason I would go outside even if it was still to play video games.

[@JRPGLife]

We do! Fun game 🙂

[@VinnyVidiVintage]

What do you have against Groundhog Day? That is one of my favorite movies

[@JRPGLife]

It's a good movie, I've just seen it WAY too much 😅

[@pobtv3]

When was retro fest this looks fun

[@JRPGLife]

It was in October 🙂

[@JCtheComicGeek]

I love them all! In saying that I still think it is the silliest thing that these 2 would not tell a certain KZbin interviewer their age! I'm like c'mon its not that big a deal! Age is just a number after all! Its not like their trying to dodge the draft or something!

[@JRPGLife]

We like to keep the mystery alive 😉

[@poochydog4417]

I was an original owner of this game I got it for under $5 at Blockbuster and sold it on eBay for $100 it currently is selling on eBay 650 it is a good game can anybody that tells you the virtual boy is in portable I played the s*** out of that thing on road trips

[@boyonthephone1]

Sorry to sound like a noob but what do you mean when you say oh no it's graded?

[@JRPGLife]

We just don't like buying sealed or graded games, we want to open them and play them 🙂

[@boyonthephone1]

@JRPGLife thanks but what is a graded game. I've been collecting for about 10 years but I have never been to an expo. I just go to my local retro game stores.

[@JRPGLife]

You'll have to Google it, it's hard to explain 🙂

[@jrpgwife]

​@boyonthephone1 it's when you pay a company to evaluate the quality and condition of your sealed game with a rating system. Then they encase the game in a permanent plastic case. Which makes the game more valuable to a certain type of collector. 😅

[@boyonthephone1]

@jrpgwife thanks for that cos I had no idea what they were. 👍

[@philliptrepczynski3679]

"boo monster collectors" whole video is collecting for shin megami tensei collection 😂

[@JRPGLife]

Hahaha good point!

[@ShadowArtist]

Hey now! Ground Hog Day is a *awesome* movie, why are you saying you "never want to see that movie again"???

[@JRPGLife]

It's a good movie, but I have seen it HUNDREDS of times lol. I've had enough 😅

[@robert557]

bastard! is a classic ova from the 90s but if you want to check it it netflix had a new version came out last year more up to date animation and a full season or 2 instead of just an ova

[@JRPGLife]

Is it any good?

[@ZackMuffinMan]

ooo

[@bossf1ght169]

can the virtual boy even play Japanese games?

[@JRPGLife]

It can! In fact, this game can be played in English with a few button presses 😀

[@goodnightmoon]

tbh i'm okay with japan version of gamesand they're waaaaay cheaper

[@EstonianBerserker]

Im sorry but what $25,000 game you’re talking about?

[@JRPGLife]

It was a graded Jack Bros. Someone told us there was one for sale here 🙂

[@GrimMetropolis]

Shin Megami Tensei. Now say it 3x fast

[@JRPGLife]

😅

[@jarredkrum9894]

No virtual boy game is worth $700 unless ya dumb. Lol i have most em cib and few are fun but not 700 fun lol

[@JRPGLife]

I'm good with being dumb, thanks for commenting 🙂

[@filbert910]

This is why emulation and roms are so popular, 10-25k for a game is insane.

[@toddgrant557]

Drives me nuts when you tubers put up click bait titles to try and gain more views !

[@brandonau9875]

Then get off KZbin 😂

[@toddgrant557]

@brandonau9875 ohhhhhhhh....so funny

[@JRPGLife]

Thanks for watching and commenting anyway 😊

[@chain_sawyer7469]

Agreed!!

[@toddgrant557]

@@JRPGLife I generally like your content.....there is just no need for misleading titles. Just be honest, the video was about finding a Japanese jack bros....you had no intention of ever looking for , let alone buying, a $25,000 game !
