Crap, please don't label this as for kids. It's not meant for kids, it's meant for archival and entertainment purposes.
Thanks for paying attention to my request! I have been going to this location for so long and it feels so good for someone to finally cover it!
Wow I can’t believe there where able to show your comment!
Btw when will you show your new 3 stage
Thanks for even asking, I really really wanted this location to be featured. I appreciate you requesting it:)
Ngl this video was awesome! Springfield has some interesting photos back then and I’m glad there working perfectly again and kept there stage to! 👍
I’m glad we got to keep Springfield. It’s a really nice stage. I may go sometime even though Pineville is the closest retro store to me. And also, I’m glad we kept two Rockfire explosions
Thank you so much for crediting me man! I’m so happy that you made a video!!!
It’s shocking just how little the location changed after receiving 2.0.
Glad that the bots are in better condition!
Awesome video! I love this location so much and had a blast at the grand reopening!
One other important thing about Springfield is that it is considered a "low volume store". In 2024, it lost its salad bar and is one of the worst performing stores in the district. A new family fun center recently opened in the area as well hurting business. This is a big reason why it became a legacy store. They saved money not having to give it 2.0 and hope that the animatronics bring in tourists.
Awesome video dude! I'm hyped to be working with you.
0:25 thanks for taking all our video requests! Springfield IL is my 3rd Favorite Retro store!
0:25 thanks for putting me in
Wow you are getting really great at thumbnails good job 👍
Thanks, but my thumbnails have been made by @saan1ty for awhile now.
@@ItzaRob can you plz make a history video of chuck e cheese in tampa florida
It was a very good video. I’ve been waiting for a story video about this place, I’m waiting for the next story video.
Very Nice Video… as always 😌✌🏽 👌🏽 lol Now, if I may- Two history reaction/video ideas I have in mind (One of which: being a HISTORICALLY ICONIC LOCATION…. Loved by MANY OF US within the fandom, and VERY COMMONLY KNOWN as that of the Chuck E. Cheese location in Huntsville, AL) Seeing as though I currently now reside in the Huntsville area, and they have DEPRESSINGLY and UNFORTUNATELY FELL VICTIM TO THE ULTIMATE NEW REMODEL of 2.0 😔🤦🏽♂️ I am still intrigued to come to find their origin/backstory!! I apologize in advance if this is something you’ve done already! Huntsville is a very special LOCATION to me… though with its own features (that had separated THEM from ALLL THE REST… in a way, it still kinda resembled and reminded me of my HOME Chuck E. Cheese from my childhood, first coming up in Illinois) That then, ties in and leads me to the other idea I had in mind for a history/reaction video (Now, THIS ONE may be a bit short… given due to the lack of photos/videos to surface the web…. Therefore, you might wanna COMBINE this into one whole video doing: this one FIRST and Huntsville right after lol) but my second history video idea… is that of the M.A.T.T.E.S.O.N. IL location!!!
And the only reason I put the periods in between is cause it always gives that little red squiggle at the end (And I hate when that happens 👀 lol)! But anyways, these were just two ideas I had in mind for the LONGEST (however, I knew you went through a point in time where you weren’t DOING reaction requests, so that’s why I had put it off)!! Anyway, I hope you have a blessed day, blessed weekend/upcoming week, and I look forward to seeing the next history video you plan on doing for the Pensacola, FL location!!! 😀
They are starting to replace the older artwork, such as the interior Chuck sign which got destroyed and replaced with a 2.0 one
Nice! 😀👍🏽 This interesting location is far away from me, as it’s 3 hours drive from me, as it’s located in the state capital city of Illinois. I’ve seen videos of this location back in the 2010s (after they got a CU 1-Stage, and luckily, the last location to still have this, as it sits there today after it was announced that the company would keep that along with other 5 retro stores during the 2.0 remodel).
Also, Pensacola is the city where everyone’s popular RUclipsr, including myself here, and has autographs from Logan and Chilly, SML (formerly SuperMarioLogan until 2021, due to a C&D from Nintendo) is filmed. I passed that city back in 2017, going from there in Tampa, FL from a cruise with Royal Caribbean to Cuba (now you can’t go there as of late 2017) to Texas (in the Dallas-Fort Worth area) visiting my Filipino-American relatives there.
@@EthanCrossMedia yep that's the SML CEC they have footage from the two episodes Jeffy and Juniors birthday parties back in the mid 2010s. They captured quite decent footage of the animatronics and store.
Wow! Visiting this location tomorrow! Thanks for the video!
Hey man! I’m really sorry I wasn’t able to get back to you with the info I had on this store, things just didn’t go well on my end, but I’m still excited to see how the video turns out!
Wait isn’t dis a legacy store now?
Yes it is!
@@BradyT-gg5wow he is a history of this location which is a legacy store now 😮
@@Rockafirefan121 yeah and nobody except like me and a few others actually cared about the store until legacy was announced
Nice video itzarob you've done well again 👍. Hey I wanted to also let you know if you haven't already that the Pensacola location the one your covering next is also an interesting one to cover since famous RUclipsr Super Mario Logan has made two videos there of the characters Jeffy and Juniors birthday back in the mid 2010s and they captured great footage of the animatronic show room and store itself.
It will be cool if you could mention and possibly use there footage in the next video. I'm sure Logan is more than willing since little kids randomly use his footage on RUclips at anytime.
Very interesting store, great job covering it!
Also, thank you for announcing the switch. I’ll now use the wiki regularly!
Good video glad they keep their animatronics
I hope you mention in the Pensacola vid that several SML Videos were filmed there
