I kinda like the 'surprise envelopes' and seeing the games lose or cracked cases or stickers where they shouldn't be. Sadistic I know but also entertaining to watch the anguish of a bad purchases, we have all been there
My jaw absolutely hit the floor when I saw what this video was gonna be. I live in the Niagara area and frequent these shops regularly!!! Each have their own charm and pros/cons. It was sureal to see footage of a game shop that's less than 5 minutes away from my house! Love you Matty! Keep up the great work!!!
Congratulations on your engagement! You became one of my favorite creators with Retro Rebound this year. I also watch the main channel but this is the content I really love. It's cool you went out to local game stores after the community vote, I appreciate that. There are some great pickups here! Obligatory shout out to the trails pick up, I have never even seen that version of sky before. I also stand with you on infinite; I think it's one of the best fps games ever. I actually just finished playing Tales of Xillia for the first time yesterday, so that was a funny coincidence for me that you picked it up!
Just wanna say congratulations on the engagement Matty. You come across as such a genuine guy on this channel and it's great to see good things happening to good people. 👍
Thanks for showing the address for mixed styles! Just added it to places I need to visit for video game collecting and video game preservation! Also thank you for mentioning game eye. Gonna be a lot easier to track what I have lol. Retro rebound was the yt channel that convinced me to take part in video game preservation. You're making a difference in video game preservation man. Keep it up love your videos!
I enjoyed this video a lot and hope you do more retro game stores in the future too, but I do miss seeing you pull the games out and reacting to their conditions surprisingly.
Love these videos. Fwiw: I hope you don't feel the need to continue to increase the spend. If you wanted to spend $400, by all means: I'm happy you're investing in something you love. You don't need to increase it for the audience, though. We just love watching you get all happy on games you really enjoy and have an affinity for. Peace.
OOOO She's not gonna like that one Matty, you'd better watch out! In all seriousness though, i wish you two all the best, i really love this video series and i can't get enough of the channel, great content :)
I live in Ontario so I grew up going to these retro game stores, it's sweet to see that you visited them and got some good stuff. Me and my Dad used to always visit Mixed Styles and another one that was really big here called Entertainment Overload. Sadly the latter (my personal fave game store) shut down a few years ago.
Tales of Xillia is actually my favorite game of all time. I bought the same edition you've bought in 2014 and who could have known it will become my favorite game ever. At the same month Xillia 2 came out, so I bought it as well right after beating the first one, and loved it as well.
@@dariushines1251 I never played Arise. But Berseria was great. Best story out of the nine Tales games I've played. Combat wasn't as good as Xillia but still lots of fun.
For FF8, I actually bought the remaster, I think it's really good, I can see why people don't like this one as much especially back in the day coming off of the Legendary FF7, but I still need to show it plenty of love, Leon is also in Kingdom Hearts, and you can even get Squall's outfit as a cosmetic in Final Fantasy 14 (if you're interested in MMOs)
Thank you for mentioning the gameye app. Had no idea it existed and is going to change the way I collect and shop. So many times I've wondered if I've owned something already whether physical or digital since I'm subscribed to ps plus and I've legit bought physical before when I had already claimed it on ps plus
Issue with Bioshock Infinite is the game was late in the generation and was primarily designed around Unreal Engine 3 as opposed to 2.5 of the previous ones. It's so much smoother on remaster or pc. I have PS3 version solely as I have a ps move and I enjoy the motion controls
I still have the 360 versions of Bioshock 1 and 2 in infinite and they run pretty well especially when you play them backwards compatibility on the Xbox One X and Xbox series X
Woah woah woah, hey hey hey wait wait wait. WHAT? My boy got ENGAGED? Congratulations man, not only that but you ALSO got to go and sleep in a MARRIOTT; WITH YOUR NEW FIANCÉ? You are KILLING it man
Enjoyed this retro game shop video for better quality finds vs gamestop with their typical cart-only, missing the manual and aftermarket box/artwork junk. Keep up the great work Matty! Also, I agree with the sentiment others shared that hopefully you don't feel the need to increase your spend just for content, video games are spendy these days..!
I never owned a PS1 in my life either. Kinda crazy how much we have in common. I feel so tempted every time I walk into Gaming Generations - the retro/new game store in my area. They usually have a PS1 in stock and I almost get one every time. I went in there on Friday and snatched up a beautiful copy of Battle Network 5 for very cheap. It was 25% off all used games so I ended up with almost $100 worth of games for $55.59. I set a hundred dollar budget for myself so with the leftover money I bought the DS version of BN5 for $38 and the Blade series from the Walmart $7.50 bargain bin.
The Last Story is amazing! On wii i highly recommend it and Pandora’s tower. I don’t have collectors edition tho. Beautiful. Can’t wait to some Naruto videos! Clash of Ninja and Rise of Ninja and their sequels were awesome. Please cover the Tales Of series!!
awe that sucks about the ps1. I had one in 1995 when I was turning 5. Still remember going from playing Evander holly fields boxing on Sega with my dad to a few months later playing ps1 demo disc from Pizza Hut. Kids will never understand that nostalgia cos that era is dead. Thanks for shinning light on ps1 era Matty!
Revenge of king piccolo is a pretty fun game. I think it's sort of a sequel to dragonball advance adventure, which is an awesome game. I wish attack of the saiyans would of kept going.
Ahhhh so excited for FF8! My favorite of the series really hope you enjoy it! Also the "Tales of" series is fantastic one of my favorite JRPG series but they are a huge commitment but I hope you get around to it cause I think you'll really like them. Loved the spotlight on retro game stores but also really like the mystery of the gamestop videos, of what games you got and the condition they are in, just really love your reactions it really makes the video. Great video keep up the good work sir!
The last game with soundtrack that I picked up is The Witcher 3 bonus content edition. It was just a couple months ago at Gamestop. They had that sale 4 for $20 used games and I saw it for the PS4. I was shocked and it is in mint condition. Stickers and everything is in it.
attack of the saiyans is really bloody good, but you can probably get through it in about 5 hours or so since it only covers from the Piccolo Jr battle to the end of the Saiyan Saga.
I feel like you can tell what your biggest hobby is by what you search for when you're on vacation "______ stores near me" y'know. Like you mentioning at 1:38 about that "one fated search". I do the exact same thing but not for retro games since I'm not a big collector of physical media. But it's interesting how whatever hobby one is passionate about becomes a google search when in a new city. 😅
6:26 Also, Matty, if you like BioShock Infinite, you should look into this upcoming game coming out called "Atomic Heart" it's slated for Feb 2023 and it looks deeply inspired by the BioShock franchise
Hey next time ur in Canada come to London Ontario and go to the 2 Game Cycle stores here. The workers and owners are awesome, friendly and all about games and I've found so many great deals and rare games There's also another store called Microplay and they have some good stuff too.

I remember seeing Jump superstars at a best buy on ds. I got the last story at launch and it also has a lil slip thats a pain to keep with it. I don' think I ever see it with it when its being sold. Everytime I move I'm afraid I will loose it. XD
We put pieces of clear tape on the sticky side of the sticker stickers and put it on the game afterwards at the pawn store I work at to avoid putting adhesive on the games/instruments
@@retrorebound8887 moncton, new-brunswick. It's called parlour pawn. I just put monster rancher2 (ps1), pac man world(ps1),ultimate muscle wrestling (ps2) and ribbit king (ps2)under layaway today and boutght tasmanian devil for the snes as well XD
I think you should look into the legend of dragoon its an old ps1 jrpg one of my favorite games with a great story and combat i really enjoyed and still enjoy playing today.
I kinda like the 'surprise envelopes' and seeing the games lose or cracked cases or stickers where they shouldn't be.

Tales of graces f and xillia are what got me into the tales franchise
As a Brock student I got so excited when I heard you visited st.Catherines :)
