Appreciate all you guys do, I never intended my vid to go after subs for my channel. I was hurt and wanted to share. It was hard for me to even make the video as i typically dont like making rant type vids (yep, it was a very very sedate rant video :P). The Ms Pac was actually Mikes, I only sent him the Frogger, Galaxian and Donkey Kong that were repaired. John (Gamester81) is still a main host of the ColecoVisions Podcast along with our newest member the author Brett Weiss. The ColecoVisions podcast covers classic coleco toys and the colecovision game system. I have had one of your subscribers start a gofundme page to buy sandwiches (which really cracks me up :P) I have asked any money raised be donated to a charity like Extra Life or something similar. The first time I met Pat was at Game On Expo in Mesa AZ last year. I stopped by his table with Mike and got the look "Dude, why are you hanging with this guy" :P I still have lots of supportive friends in the community and would like to consider you two part of that group now :P I may be a small channel, but I have a big heart :)
I read the updates on the atariage forum and took a look at your channel. I have to say I am impressed by the content you offer, so much so that you have a brand new subscriber. Also I am happy this got resolved, although Mike's go fund me comment was pretty ridiculous. Go luck to you in the future sir.
Thanks :), I really appreciate what Pat and Ian has done for me as well :P I found a place to send the GoFundMe money that was raised. I am going to donate it to Nanochess of Atariage to help his family out. you can read about it in the ColecoVision subforum under the Team Pixelboy News Bulletin May 2016.
Mike Kennedy is the gift that keeps on giving. Except the gift is a pair of socks. Not super nice ones like wool ones, but ones that rip the moment you put them on, are threadbare and are either too big or too small.
He's a diaper full of loose stool lol that's the best Ian. I love these podcast videos. Man I really have to actually watch the whole podcast one of these days.
In the limited chances that I've had to meet Willie, he's been gracious, he cares about the systems that he loves more than almost anyone I've ever met, and the absolute last thing he much cares about is the money. He's driven to Ohio with a friend to be at CORGS a couple of times now, and it's been great every time! So yeah, you screw that guy over, never the less it's Mike Kennedy, that's it. Can't support anything he's even kinda close to touching, which sadly means no more Retro Magazine either.
Willie is a personal friend, too...this is incredibly bad. Willie would literally do anything for anyone. he's the nicest guy I have ever met. and he has caught shit for the Chameleon when all he wanted to help. this is incredibly shitty.
I have a lot of experience dealing with drug addicted people, and Mike seems to share a lot of their symptoms. This comment is from my personal collection.
Pat, don't ever get rid of Ian! You two are fucking great, but when Ian is pissed at something, he does exactly what I do..... Just fucking spit the truth! Your style is great Pat, but when Ian is pissed... That's just gold! Keep up the great work!
Deadpaddy O'Riordan i had never heard of an ad hominem before and it took me three years to finally look through the comments on this video to figure out what the hell Pat said.
You would think ole' Mike would realise you can't untarnish your reputation in the age of the internet. Everyone knows, you can wash the stains off. You did it champ. You're the guy.
I do, in fact, know exactly what a grease trap is and have had to clean them. Ian, that's a fucking brilliant insult. Those things make me dry heave and almost vomit, much like Mike Kennedy.
That is some intensive repair work, trace rework is no fun. You also second guess yourself forever because if it needed trace work in the first place it may still be breaking. Among other reasons.
Huh, there's an infamous guy on ebay reselling old computers for far too much money named Socaleer, I wonder if there is any relation to SocalVideogames...
We need a new spin-off channel: "Ian Reacts." Ian watches videos where people get fucked over and then Ian calls the people doing it whatever things that pop into his brain. I'd watch that.
there's some pretty gross stuff that accumulates in the grease trap at the mcdonalds i work at. -shudders- ill be sure to say hi to mike when i clean them out next. haha
As a volunteer firefighter, I once had to attend to a fire caused by a grease trap that was NEVER cleaned out! Only time I nearly threw up in my air pack, face mask... yeah, they help protect your respiratory system and face and block out SOME smell, but not ALL OF IT!!! (shuddering at remembering that smell) In that particular state, ALL forms of eating establishments (this one being a deli type place in a gas station selling fried chicken and other types of fried foods) are required to post their health dept. inspection grade in public view... there was NO WAY in hell they got an "A Grading" due to that grease trap and all the grease residue build up on the surrounding walls and equipment!!! (in fact, I still gag at just thinking of that place!)... kinda makes you wonder if there was a bribe or simply having the health dept. mailing out a written test type of inspection instead of an actual visual inspection! EVERYBODY of the fire dept. who responded to that incident remarked about that one thing of their "health dept. grade" vs. actual conditions we saw and had seen prior!!!
I'm pretty sure this could be looked at as selling stolen property if Willie could prove they were originally his. In the UK, you could probably take him to small claims court.
OwLs_ VeTeR, Willie lent the games; so when Mike sold them, he was selling someone else's property without permission. That still counts as stolen property.
+OwLs_ VeTeR uh yes these are stolen goods. It would be the exact same thing if you loaned your friend a computer and then he goes and sells the computer. So how is that not selling someone else's goods?
+bigscreen bird because you handed it over, like when you hand your car keys to a valet and they drive off with your car. Yes the legal system is fucked up
So not only is Mike misleading on the description for the ebay listing. He's also basically selling stolen property. What's next for the scumbag? Robbing a Gamestop?
I thought people where mad when Pat said gloves where coming off because he was trying to bring up boxing again, when him and Ian haven't covered wrestling in some time.
Straight up, the Kickstarter platform in general is just broken. It is FAR too susceptible to criminal activity as there is literally NOTHING stopping a person from starting a Kickstarter and just running off with the money. This in itself is completely unacceptable! The money should be held in an account and should not be able to be touched until a product is delivered! I realize this is impossible when the funds are needed to create the product, but there is literally no system at all in place to protect the investors. There absolutely needs to be SOMETHING in place to protect those who are investing in any Kickstarter programs, and the fact that there isn't one is just not ok in any sense of the word. In essence, Kickstarter is a scam artist's dream.

hope you get your machines back. pretty whack what happened to you. praying and wishing for a happy ending on your side!
I subscribed to you're channel dude

Willie, you're a good man. I love your honesty. You should've at least taken out enough of that go fund me for a big sammich tho.
Ian's nicknames for Mike Kennedy are pure gold.
Tripcore
Agreed.
I hate his nicknames, fuck him
YOU DESERVE IT PIG MAN
I agree. Gotta remember that so I can use it. 😆
#GiveWillieASandwich
Here, here.
Yes, yes, yes! YES!!!!
can we start a subreddit dedicated purely to saying nice things to Willie?
Hey, I'd buy the guy a Long Island iced tea. With what he's been through he deserves one.
"he's a fuck", classic
What a shit load of fuck.
Hey Guys, This Is My New Name spitting some truth there
I look back at these sorts of tirades as Banner becoming Hulk. I sort of become overtaken.
gg gg it's a fucking podcast you cretin chill out
hes gone :)
He's the Amy's Bakery Company of retro gaming collector.
Thanks, now I cant unsee AVGN or Pat coming in as the Gordon Ramsay of retro game collecting o.o But yeah I can certainly see the comparison....
lol
amys as in the organic food company? they're fucking delicious.
Hahahahaha
@@SerlingPictures look up Amy's baking company kitchen nightmares, watch the episode then come back
These two make for good radio hosts honestly. :) Always entertaining.
I love when Ian gets pissed off and revved up, love you guys!
6 years later I wonder if they got a hold of all these buyers
The grease trap of humanity 🤣🤣🤣 🤢 i gagged a little bit at that but totally get it! What a shithead 🤘
"He's the grease trap of society."
False. A grease trap serves a purpose.
So anyone that bought Mike's "apology" over the Coleco Chameleon debacle is probably feeling mighty silly now.
A grease trap might be dirty, disgusting, foul, hellhole, but it does have a use. Unlike Mike.
Also it should be pointed out Mike sold these on EBay, not his own GameGavel.
Mike Kennedy is the gift that keeps on giving. Except the gift is a pair of socks. Not super nice ones like wool ones, but ones that rip the moment you put them on, are threadbare and are either too big or too small.
Actually, he's a pair of Minions socks.
He's more of the fruitcake everyone gives away at Christmas and no one finds palatable.
Mike Kennedy is the Sonichu of classic gaming.
YOU KIDDING ME
YOUR WIFE WAS A WHOLE NOTHER STORY
SHE WAS COLDER THAN A FISH FROM TSUKIJI
Reminds me of a quote from Better Call Saul: "There are wolves and sheep in this world. Figure out which one you're gonna be."
He's a diaper full of loose stool lol that's the best Ian. I love these podcast videos. Man I really have to actually watch the whole podcast one of these days.
Oh, Mike. It's always something with you.
"covered in brimstone!" fuck i love Ian! XD
In the limited chances that I've had to meet Willie, he's been gracious, he cares about the systems that he loves more than almost anyone I've ever met, and the absolute last thing he much cares about is the money. He's driven to Ohio with a friend to be at CORGS a couple of times now, and it's been great every time!
So yeah, you screw that guy over, never the less it's Mike Kennedy, that's it. Can't support anything he's even kinda close to touching, which sadly means no more Retro Magazine either.
Reading Smoke & Mirrors by UKMike in 2021 brought me here.
Please don't die from laughing Pat
Willie is a personal friend, too...this is incredibly bad. Willie would literally do anything for anyone. he's the nicest guy I have ever met. and he has caught shit for the Chameleon when all he wanted to help. this is incredibly shitty.
Love Pat's beard
Coleco Chameleon...The gift that keeps on giving.
I have a lot of experience dealing with drug addicted people, and Mike seems to share a lot of their symptoms.
This comment is from my personal collection.
If you say "Mike" three times in front of a mirror at 3 am... You'll see that mirror on eBay the next day "from my personal collection".
one of the few times I actually enjoyed watching Ian. well done, boys
Ian is hilarious with those insults. accurate, but also hilarious.
The saga with that thing is never over.
Pat, don't ever get rid of Ian! You two are fucking great, but when Ian is pissed at something, he does exactly what I do..... Just fucking spit the truth! Your style is great Pat, but when Ian is pissed... That's just gold! Keep up the great work!
The Galaxian buyer seemed to be happy with it. He left positive feedback for it too.
where do I listen to this when it's live?
I have never wanted so badly for an individual to be drawn and quartered, as Mike Kennedy.
"That was a pretty, over the top, ad hominem." - Pat
Sooo rad.
Deadpaddy O'Riordan i had never heard of an ad hominem before and it took me three years to finally look through the comments on this video to figure out what the hell Pat said.
the shitstain hellspawn part had me choking on my fucking sandwich
You would think ole' Mike would realise you can't untarnish your reputation in the age of the internet. Everyone knows, you can wash the stains off. You did it champ. You're the guy.
My favorite episode with Ian, ever!
I do, in fact, know exactly what a grease trap is and have had to clean them. Ian, that's a fucking brilliant insult. Those things make me dry heave and almost vomit, much like Mike Kennedy.
"grease trap" LMFAO
Crying laughing, best pocast yet. Ian, you're amazing dude.
That left camera is blurry, every video, lol. I would have thought someone on the other end would have caught that by now.
That is some intensive repair work, trace rework is no fun. You also second guess yourself forever because if it needed trace work in the first place it may still be breaking. Among other reasons.
This guy is an absolutely wretched person.
Please descend back to your home, Mike.
descend....as in basement? or hell? LOL
+gozinta82 His basement in hell
+Jesus Christ Yup. Satan's basement.
+Professor Mercury please no, we don't need that shit here
The world is my home, so fuck you
"Diaper full of loose stool"
Ian with the walkoff homer after the hit parade he put out on Mike Kennedy
Watched this on your full Patreon Podcast, but had to see it again. Ians descriptions of Mike is amazing. He is, a fuck. lol
At least grease traps serve a purpose. I'd say he's more like the crusty burger that fell under the grill a year ago that nobody noticed to clean up
I worked in restaurants for years... like none of you bastards saw it...
Huh, there's an infamous guy on ebay reselling old computers for far too much money named Socaleer, I wonder if there is any relation to SocalVideogames...
ian, i love you and all your descriptions
Let's all give Willie some new subs and views.
Show him some love: ruclips.net/user/SVT512
Just subscribed
We need a new spin-off channel: "Ian Reacts." Ian watches videos where people get fucked over and then Ian calls the people doing it whatever things that pop into his brain. I'd watch that.
i love the way Ian insults people
You guys make my day every damn day, laughed so hard.
The ride never ends!
Ian had me laughing pretty hard in this one.
dude in the red shirt looks like a long haired T-Rex with his arms on the fuckin chair like that...
#BuyWillieASandwich
The Ultimate Guide to the Coleco Chameleon
I'm happy the sandwich buying train is a'rolling again!
I can imagine a podcast in the near future where Pat and Ian taking turns saying "fuck Mike Kennedy" back and forth for five minutes straight.
Ian in this episode= AVGN And I love it.
"He exudes vomit from every pore"
Gold.
Gold.
Ian exudes vomit from every pore
Willie needs some honest guys to support him like us
The from my personal collection line is becoming the new RARE in bullshit line in ebay listings.
Ian's ad hominems are the best ad hominems
When I hear "Willie", I think of ALF. Just gonna throw that out there.
there's some pretty gross stuff that accumulates in the grease trap at the mcdonalds i work at. -shudders- ill be sure to say hi to mike when i clean them out next. haha
AND YOU GET A SANDWICH AND YOU GET A SANDWICH, EVERYBODY GETS A SANDWICH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Grease traps are the most vile inanimate objects in the world. Good comparison Ian.
IT CONTINUES!!!
I am a bit chunky, may need to buy me a Calzone! lol.
Ian's a savage.
I remember my last time cleaning a grease trap, The new guy threw up.
As a volunteer firefighter, I once had to attend to a fire caused by a grease trap that was NEVER cleaned out! Only time I nearly threw up in my air pack, face mask... yeah, they help protect your respiratory system and face and block out SOME smell, but not ALL OF IT!!! (shuddering at remembering that smell)

(in fact, I still gag at just thinking of that place!)... kinda makes you wonder if there was a bribe or simply having the health dept. mailing out a written test type of inspection instead of an actual visual inspection! EVERYBODY of the fire dept. who responded to that incident remarked about that one thing of their "health dept. grade" vs. actual conditions we saw and had seen prior!!!
Awwwe Willie!
Tell us how you really feel about him Ian. That as a brutal as it was brilliant, well done!
I'm pretty sure this could be looked at as selling stolen property if Willie could prove they were originally his. In the UK, you could probably take him to small claims court.
(Sees "Coleco Chameleon" in the title), yeah this going to be fun. lol The car wreck that keeps on giving.
technically can't you consider these stolen goods ?
No because Willie gave him the games, mike didn't take them by force
+OwLs_ VeTeR yes but he says "from his own collection "
OwLs_ VeTeR, Willie lent the games; so when Mike sold them, he was selling someone else's property without permission. That still counts as stolen property.
+OwLs_ VeTeR uh yes these are stolen goods. It would be the exact same thing if you loaned your friend a computer and then he goes and sells the computer. So how is that not selling someone else's goods?
+bigscreen bird because you handed it over, like when you hand your car keys to a valet and they drive off with your car. Yes the legal system is fucked up
grease trap of humanity... ouch... brutal but fairly accurate lol
excellent condition from my personal collection (covered in brimstone)
GREAT! JUST GREAT!
I could listen to Ian roasting Kennedy all day long.
This shit honestly pisses me off. I can only imagine if one of my friends sold my games behind my back.
Why doesnt he sue his ass?
He did SELL STOLEN ITEMS on eBay!!!!! That would get him in jail, boy!
The man called RetroGate.
So not only is Mike misleading on the description for the ebay listing. He's also basically selling stolen property.
What's next for the scumbag? Robbing a Gamestop?
Just when you think you got out, Mike K. keep's dragging you back in.
I was the one who bought Donkey Kong. I left a comment on Willy's video. I'm going to do my best to make this right for Willy.
My friend owns a Frogger machine like that, but I won't certainly sell it behind his back like a scumbag!
I thought people where mad when Pat said gloves where coming off because he was trying to bring up boxing again, when him and Ian haven't covered wrestling in some time.

does anyone know if we can get him arrested for attempting to defraud investors at the toy show or something?
Ian seems happy in this podcast cx yaaaay sometimes he seems sad and quiet
"sry paul"
Are we sure he knew they had a shitty repair job?
Why didn't Kennedy sell them on gamegavel?
Nice adjective use Ian!
oh no the guy sold something that works...what a jagoff
Try listening to the whole thing, try comprehending what words mean...it's remarkably easy to get the point if you just LISTEN.
*reads the title* holy shit! My world no longer makes any sense
Pat, rock the beard permanently, it looks great
Leave a bike in a park unlocked and guaranteed it'll disappear. Its SCUMMY human nature to take advantage of a situation, sadly.
