Ive had that green sign for over 10 years ive never been able to find out where it came from. Thank you so much for finally solving that mystery for me
4:46 PSM (Playstation Magazine) stickers sighted! The mags always came with a circular sticker to put on the lid of your PS1. Most of these were promo, but the smiley with the eye patch was the magazine's own logo/character. Absolutely loved that magazine!!
That was awesome. I had the entire psm mag collection and gave it away to a friend. Luckily, I kept the first 5 editions to myself and still have that smiley sticker. I remember waiting each month for those magazines like it was yesterday. Great times !!! ❤😊
I know videos are supposed to be short to keep people’s attention spans but yours are too short for me. The content is so good I’d watch a 2 hour movie lol good stuff Rick and Michael!
been watching you for a few years now, i believe its been a few years lol but love your positive view on life and your attitude is amazing, looking forward to all the future vids you're gonna make
Thank you for sharing your story and collection. Your a very humble guy. It's crazy how games hold so many conversations. I got my 1st NES for passing summer school in 1st grade so I understand.
Those are great games but my favorite is x-men vs street fighter I know it is broken because it was early in the vs series But it was the game that introduced me to the vs series, and I invested a lot of time in the arcade When Mvc 2 and sf III came out I was already in university and couldn’t play as often at the arcade local Only once a month, well life goes on. I just received my terraonion ODE for the Dreamcast So I’m gonna install and start grinding mvc2 take my time unlocking characters
Smash Bros is easily my favorite fighting game Ultimate and Melee especially!! But I also love Tekken, Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. I even like Multiversus and Dragon Ball FighterZ I guess I just like fighting games lol.
Too many favorite fighting games to name just one as the best ever, but I'll go with Rival Schols on the PS1. Played that for hours with friends, lots of great variety and combos, and it still holds up and is still fun to play.
Hey Rick...ya may have regerts about buying those two games, but he's gonna remember that and now you're on the kiosk kings good graces! I think the next good find is coming to you and not the buddy in Cali!
Soul caliber & Killer Instinct own more hours of life than any other fighter. I actually bought a cib KI from Rick before he could even put it out on a shelf.
So i started fighting games with SF2 and that will always have a special place in my heart. However, my favorite fighting games will always be the Guilty Gear and Blaz Blu Franchises. They knock the ever loving poop outa any other fighting game for me.
Sf2 og , playing it religiously on the arcade until it came out on the snes. Then, i became super expert learning and mastering everyones moves in expert mode. Hardest level. ❤😊 still play it till this day. When killer instinct came out, i was also hooked. 😊
my favorite fighting game would have to be Mortal Kombat.....not just the first one, but the whole series....they kept getting better and better with graphics and more outlandish fatalities as well as guest characters....
I'm going to say Marvel VS. Capcom 2 because it had an insane roster of characters and I've got a lot of good memories playing it a lot with friends on the Dreamcast back in the day.
Capcom vs. Marvel 2 original XBox , with Clay Fightes on the SNES, Primal Rage on Sega. Punch Out on NES and Tekken ps1... as I grew up with the new systems, I had a favorite game.
If I'm not mistaken there's only like 1,000 of those Mario Brothers 3 in the box as they were a packing item originally and never really sold individually so that is actually pretty rare if you don't buy it you're a sucker
100 percent. Nothing changes. Supply and demand. If things get more rare prices go up and people sell. Will always be a market but prices could go way up and then down.
Nostalgia is like a drug. Millennials have become adults and a lot of them have disposable income to spend on games of their childhood. Retro stores and game stores will be around until the millennials die. The newer generation grew up with less physical media so that's probably the time when these stores are going to struggle
@@nateg5505 and when they pass on and only kids that grew up playing downloadable games exist why would they want to go buy from a store like that? they will have no reason to and have no connection to any of those games. these stores will die out sooner or later.
Not much of a fighting game guy but; Marvel vs Capcom 2 on the Dreamcast. I used to take it to school and 8 of us would have tournaments in a spare class room during lunch
Nice brother - I'm currently on a WWF nostalgic-driven triathlon journey, complete with a double-sided Hulk Hogan/Ultimate Warrior bike, Ironman Wrestling championship belt, and more. Would love to connect!

Marvel vs capcom 2 for sure. I’ve got 2 kiosks I’d let go the amiibo kiosk and Wii U kiosk as well
“Buddy out in Cali” must be BALLIN lol
Plot twist - It's Riff
Is Mort doing that or just CIB? @@Koolicyde
Nah, that’s just a common made-up phrase to build up scarcity and selling price!
right?
Cali has the highest taxes and worst regulations that punish entrepreneurs and business owners which why MANY LEFT
That’s the weed plug
The Mrs. Retro cameo XD
Tekken Tag Tournment always one of my favorites
Power stone 2 on dreamcast never gets old.. its just madness on the screen. Great video👍🏽

Mortal Kombat arcade version is hard to beat especially with learning all the different finishers. It kinda changed fighting games forever.
Literally am addicted to YT because of Rick
Those boxed turtles games would go great with my boxed turtle NES.
Thank you for sharing your story and collection. Your a very humble guy. It's crazy how games hold so many conversations. I got my 1st NES for passing summer school in 1st grade so I understand.
It gets better and better 🎉
The value is in the appreciation. You're good, man. As long as you're enjoying the purchases, don't fret it!
Art of Fighting Neogeo When you hit somebody with the turbo kick. That felt so good. Awesome game
I'm the guy who sold the 13' GameCube E3 banner to Cakehoarder on RUclips..... The one he mentioned @ 6:23
He ain’t lyin…😎
Street Fighter 3: 3rd strike and Marvel vs Capcom 2 on dreamcast will always be my favorite fighting games
I also agree with 3s and MvC2.
Definitely
Yep
this guy knows
Those are great games but my favorite is x-men vs street fighter
I know it is broken because it was early in the vs series
But it was the game that introduced me to the vs series, and I invested a lot of time in the arcade

Congratulations on the festival level-up!!! That guy has a crazy collection that he just driving around with.
I saw a few things I wanted in that trailer. Also that Killer Instinct display 🔥
Smash Bros is easily my favorite fighting game Ultimate and Melee especially!! But I also love Tekken, Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. I even like Multiversus and Dragon Ball FighterZ I guess I just like fighting games lol.
I just ordered my VIP Retrofest Arkansas ticket. Let's GOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Either Powerstone or Bloody Roar.....those were my jams back in the day.
Although also enjoyed a little tekken and some clay fighters.
Street Fighter Alpha 2, had so much fun with it and nostalgic game for me
Your videos are always on point, keep it going
Too many favorite fighting games to name just one as the best ever, but I'll go with Rival Schols on the PS1. Played that for hours with friends, lots of great variety and combos, and it still holds up and is still fun to play.
YES, I’m so glad I live close to Arkansas so I can go there!
12:36 I LLOOVVEEEE Mrs. Retro! she is so cute!
loved pitfighter from genesis. also a huge mortal kombat trilogy fan from n64
Best fighting game: Smash on the Gamecube, destroyed many friendships.
When I heard the challenge I said Dead to Rights on the OG xbox and its a 73. I'm calling that a win.
I love those posters on your wall. If you have an NES Zelda one, please bring it. I'll buy it from you.
RJ
Definitely would have bought em! You’ll make a profit but will probably be the slow dime as opposed to the fast nickel 👌🏻
Hey Rick...ya may have regerts about buying those two games, but he's gonna remember that and now you're on the kiosk kings good graces! I think the next good find is coming to you and not the buddy in Cali!
Killer Instinct SNES and I would have absolutely bought those NES games yes.
Love the Killer Instinct piece. Also booking my ticket for RetroFest
I've always thought that the Tournament Fighters cover art is so cool...
best ever is killer instinct
Agreed! TJCombo!
Soul caliber & Killer Instinct own more hours of life than any other fighter. I actually bought a cib KI from Rick before he could even put it out on a shelf.
So i started fighting games with SF2 and that will always have a special place in my heart. However, my favorite fighting games will always be the Guilty Gear and Blaz Blu Franchises. They knock the ever loving poop outa any other fighting game for me.

Really enjoyed the store and the experience. Must have made this video right after I left. 😂
my favorite fighting game would have to be Mortal Kombat.....not just the first one, but the whole series....they kept getting better and better with graphics and more outlandish fatalities as well as guest characters....
RICK! Sell me that Freddy Funko! I need it haha
I'm going to say Marvel VS. Capcom 2 because it had an insane roster of characters and I've got a lot of good memories playing it a lot with friends on the Dreamcast back in the day.
Tekken 2 and a very very very close second is def jams fight for NY.
Capcom vs. Marvel 2 original XBox , with Clay Fightes on the SNES, Primal Rage on Sega. Punch Out on NES and Tekken ps1... as I grew up with the new systems, I had a favorite game.
If I'm not mistaken there's only like 1,000 of those Mario Brothers 3 in the box as they were a packing item originally and never really sold individually so that is actually pretty rare if you don't buy it you're a sucker
Thanks for the heads up. I subscribed to Pizza Hut!
Best fighting game, soul Calibur 2 on GameCube
That Italian Job Heist scene was too good hahaha
Don't worry dude. I heard your story about them cutting your game 😭
I luvved the quirkiness of N64 clayfighter. Hopefully get the directors cut eventually
Can’t wait to see you at so cal !
Best fighting game of all time? For me, it's TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 1, the arcade version!
Will stores like this still exist 5-10 years from now?
Yes. Because nothing beats actually going and looking and handling games.
I very much doubt it. Only the good ones will survive
100 percent. Nothing changes. Supply and demand. If things get more rare prices go up and people sell. Will always be a market but prices could go way up and then down.

Dang, I have a CIB Tournament Fighters I am bringing to SoCal expo I was looking to offload for a better price than that... maybe Riff will want it :)
Injustice 2 or Soul Caliber 2 or Soul Caliber 4 but also ultimate Tenkaichi 3 so so many 😂😂😂😂
Virtua fighter 2 arcade or soul caliber on Dreamcast
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 (and Mortal Kombat 11)
Street Figher 2 in the arcade, or Soul Calibur 2 on gamecube

Power Stone on the dream cast is the goat
Best fighting game for me has to be Tekken 3. Spent so much of my childhood playing that game!

Garou: Mark of the Wolves on Neo Geo / Arcade will always have a special place in my heart...
MK 2, SF 2 and Killer instinct all a 3 way tie for my fav fighting game of all time
Favorite fighting game is Tekken 3 for me. Also the metacritic game was fun.
Best fighting game… how is it not Shaq Fu??
Mortal Kombat 9 but I think that street Fighter 4 is the best
He had awesome stuff... gotta help out your great connections... good buy in the long run :) Also they look sick ha ha
Ima look into it!! Coming from NorCal
Got the vintage macho man t shirt on love it!!!!
Mortal Kombat # 1 fighting game
Killer Instinct and Marvel VS Capcom on Dreamcast. The PS2 version is slower but still good
For some reason Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance stands out in my head because I played it so much as a kid.
I actually had the 6 foot killer instinct standie that had a batter in the back and his eyes blinked red was a sweet piece
i'm a warriors on ps2, or supersmash bros on n64 for the beat em up g.o.a.t.
Excited for the Expo!
Not much of a fighting game guy but; Marvel vs Capcom 2 on the Dreamcast. I used to take it to school and 8 of us would have tournaments in a spare class room during lunch
Street Fighter 2 the OG changed the world!
That's right. It's what started me with fighting games. My fav still st2 og. ❤😊

Nice brother - I'm currently on a WWF nostalgic-driven triathlon journey, complete with a double-sided Hulk Hogan/Ultimate Warrior bike, Ironman Wrestling championship belt, and more. Would love to connect!

Mortal Kombat 1, 2, and 3 on Sega Mega Drive 2 16-bit

Great Hauling boss Retro
Best fighting game, Marvel Vs Capcom 2. MVC2 to me was the evolution of X-men Children of the Arom, which is a great fighter as well.
Mortal Kombat. Any of them.
Only fighting games I got into were MK 10 and Injustice.
