    I had to pause this one after you said your from the other side of Pennsylvania. I’m from Bradford,PA Game hunting is definitely hit or miss. The prices are all over. I always hope to get the older adults that haven’t looked up the prices. Great finds and video. Hope you enjoyed The Falls

    • @ElDabstroyero
      @ElDabstroyero  6 месяцев назад

      Bradford is way up there! Being in a rural spot definitely adds to the challenge of the hunt, but I suppose the trade-off is less competition!
      Thanks so much for dropping a comment, glad you enjoyed the video! The Falls were honestly so cool - I was in awe of the force of nature!

    my favorite pickups are the gamecube games. I started collecting them about 14 years ago. I was in college when the gamecube was out, then it was all about the ps2 and xbox. So i didnt get a gamecube until after the the wii was out for a few years. I went to niagara falls in October 2022 wth my wife and a couple friends, we 19 hours from iowa. It was really cool, I can tell from your shots you went into the park, on the rainbow bridge and last part appears to be the canada side with the last shot. had some great pizza there.

      I love a nice GameCube pickup too! I’m like you, I was a little late to the GC console. Niagara was so gorgeous! And yep, we walked from the American side over to the restaurant on the Canadian side - it was an amazing view! The boat ride into the falls is can’t-miss too!

    I know I'm a bit late to the party, honestly lately haven't felt motivated to really be watching much RUclips. But with the weekend here I need to try to get caught up on some stuff. 1st of all the console set up looks super sweet man. How did you find Chaotic (assuming you got to play it). I have it on a couple of consoles, but haven't gotten around to putting any time into it, may have to try to aim for the Plat on the PS3 version soon enough. Always got to get some game hunting in whenever possible. Looking forward to this episode man, you always see such cool stuff, whether it gets added to the collection or not. The collection is growing and becoming such a thing of beauty. I think a top 10 games in the collection video would be a cool thing to do at some point. Some cool games in that first one, hope they get in contact with you about the Nintendo and Atari stuff. I actually picked up the Charizard Funko Pop myself a little while ago from a buddy. The Playstation games are cool, and I had a modded PS1 back in the day, but at $5 a game, it like meh, would be cool to pick up for like $1 a piece or $2 assuming they work no problem, but would lean towards $1 just for it, even as not legit, be nice little things to add if you had a console to play them. That little shelf was a nice thing to come across just to fill in spots (at the very least) in the collection, couple bucks a game too, right up the price point you're aiming at. Even at the over $100 price tag, there some very cool things in there. I knew they did a Carmen Sandiego games for the PC and all, but didn't realize they did one for the Xbox. 100% agree with you getting the MMPR Magnets, I would of snagged them as well. That Yogi looks so unique though, then again from the year it is from no surprise there. I loved Dinosaurs back in the day, actually have come across Season1 & 2 on DVD as well I would of picked up that Robbie Sinclaire one as well as a few more for sure from that box of toys. I've never been to Niagra Falls, but need to say such a sight to behold. This was a blast and some nice finds man, so many games. I think for me the CIB Genesis games have to be the find of the video for me for sure. Cheers man, looking forward to the next one. #Roadto1500

      Never late and always welcome here, Tom!
      Chaotic didn’t catch my attention long enough for an opinion, which is probably saying enough as it is haha - but to be fair, I am not a huge fan of the Wii. 👀
      I think your top 10 idea is a good one and I’ve been thinking about it too! The flip side, I have almost 15 episodes of this filmed and in need of editing - so time is my enemy currently! 😵‍💫
      Unfortunately, no word from them yet - and congrats on the pop, it’s dope looking! For me the ripped games were a big “no thanks” - I barely have space for legit games haha
      The Carmen San Diego game sadly looks dull as heck, but still a nice find for 1/2 off!
      Hope you get the chance to check out Niagara, I was on the fence but after being there, you really get a chance to appreciate the sheer power of a force of nature right in front of you.
      Thanks for joining and see you next time!
