Gamestop does have some good cheap games, especially older ones! I found one for my DS once that was $5 and used, and on ebay was going for like $25 used. I would love to get another Wii, I used to love Wii Fit and I have been really wanting to play it lately. I haven't looked much, but from what I saw finding a Wii now is difficult, and they can be very pricey. 

Thank you for the compliments.  I'll just keep doing what I'm doing, then. 
My wife gifted me a Wii for Christmas a couple of years ago along with Speed which ended up becoming a favorite.  I would visit GameStop anytime I had about $5 in my pocket because some Wii games were $3.00 or less.  I found that monster truck game for $1.99 complete in box.  It became a favorite as well.  The video I took of it was only my second time playing it.  I play these most often when I want some Wii game time.

I watched a few of your videos, and they were cool and fun to watch! I enjoy watching someone else play games, especially (like I said above) the Monster Truck one as I haven't played that in so long. 

Have you guys seen Ninja Odyssey for Intellivision? I had no idea Intellivision could look this good! Ninja Odyssey is a new platformer for your Intellivision. Levels and gameplay are just like Wonderboy, but it looks incredible for an Intellivision game. This game works on any original Intellivision system and doesn't require any additional hardware. This almost looks like a 7800 or NES game. Well done!
 

Boys are back in town!  Commando On 7800 - come get some! 
 

It makes it easier to do when we actively cultivate a nice community by attracting nice people.

I totally agree with you! It's nice coming on here and seeing everyone get along and have fun. I feel like any other website or forum I have gone on that involves some sort of interest people are always arguing with each other and overall the community can be quite unnecessarily mean. I love how everyone on here gets along and is NICE!  😄

My score so far...

He probably could if Nintendo would allow it.  But the are very protective over their IPs lately.

It's also available on the Atari home computers 😉

Bummer...I liked his shows.  Then again it has been going on for a really long time and all things have to end eventually.  Looks like the never ending mission to review everything has ended.  😞 
 
 

It can't be easy.  Not to mention how critical on-line nerds can be.  They'll pick on every little thing -- your voice, your physical features, or even how you play the game.  It can really get you down eventually. 

I can understand being burned out. It's okay to take a break. I don't understand changing the channel and confusing loyal viewers. It's easy to create another channel dedicated to a different subject.

Both of you have hit a nail on the head.  There is a lot of bullying and negativity that goes on in the video game world that is really uncalled for and completely unnecessary.  That magazine I was a part of had members that would get harassed bad but nothing was ever done about it.  Those people left.  I have not heard from them since.
That's why I like it here...no bullying or anything of the sort.  We are all good sports and win or lose enjoy a great played game. As much that goes on in this world you would think none of that would carry over to video games, online or not, but it is there...unfortunately.  I, personally, would love to see an end to it.

I always enjoyed his game reviews.  I felt that he sort of vanished and I can see that that did indeed happen.  The negative comments did not help the situation at all. 

This is the LAST Jag CD in my collection.  We’ve reviewed them all - well according to my collection.  This has been a good run and we have a handful of carts left to review. Stay tuned folks for more Jag Bar
 

Here's a question for all the original owners who were there on Day 1: Did you think Atari 2600 Pac-Man was bad when you first got it? Was it a huge disappointment out of the box? Or did you enjoy the heck out of playing that game and only later came to realize the rest of the world thought it was bad?
Genuinely curious to see if you guys had varying experiences and there was a bit of a "Mandela Effect" going on, or if everybody was on the same page from Day 1 saying "It stinks!"

Welcome to our 77th Squad Challenge! We're shaking off the Coronavirus and fighting cabin fever with a healthy prescription of Dr. Mario on NES! Dr. Mario was one of the big NES titles for 1990 and felt very at home with other puzzle games like Tetris. Can you help Mario destroy the viruses by throwing vitamin capsules into the contaminated bottle? We're still keeping things light and breezy as we deal with this Coronavirus situation and get back into the swing of things in the forums, so kick back, relax, and put on classic game of Dr. Mario. I hope you guys are ready for a new season of High Score Squad and good luck to everybody participating! 
 
NOTE: Upcoming Squad Challenges will be simple and straightforward until the site issues are completely resolved. We'll dive deeper with some fun Squad Challenges this summer. Thanks for playing, and enjoy!

Congratulations RadioPoultry!
 
Congratulations @RadioPoultry! You knocked it out of the park! Pac-Man Day challenges are always some of my favorite, and Ms. Pac-Man on Atari 7800 is hands down one of my favorite games for any system. It was great to get back in the swing of things and have so many participants join us in High Score Squad. We even had a few of the wives turn out! Having family and friends jump in and play along with us is something we should do more of in the future. @RadioPoultry takes the cake with an impressive 75,610 points! The Don @RickR posted a really impressive 72,120 to claim 2nd, and @greenween was right behind him with 71,350 to take 3rd. @kamakazi20012 @TrekMD @Justin @Gianna @btbfilms76 @Atari Creep Ms. BTB and Ms. Creep all joined in this one! Congrats to RadioPoultry for making it to the top, and to everyone who jumped in this squad challenge and shared a score! I'd like to encourage RadioPoultry to post his new high score on the Scoreboard, and let's make sure this Challenge continues on!
NOTE: Our next High Score Squad Challenge will be a *cough cough* Corona challenge. Be there!
 
 

 
 

I’ll check out your channel once I’m done working (from home!) today. I’m interested in the truck videos and I haven’t played the monster truck game on wii in FOREVER so it’ll be fun to watch. 😌

Looks like a shift in focus over a year ago. 
 

I remember one of the CGR videos mentioning something about transitioning over to Amazon Prime.  It was a result of YouTube/Google making changes in the qualifications for a YouTube channel to receive revenue from ads placed on their channel.  It affected some channels that rely on that revenue to produce quality content.  I'll have to see if I can find that video.
I have a channel, too, and try to upload content regularly but it is often difficult for me.  It's easier for me to find about half an hour to play a game than it is for me to find the hours it takes to make a YouTube video.  But I don't get anything from my channel as it doesn't meet the qualifications.  I do it to showcase my passion for video games.   

I wasn't aware of any of this until today. Seems highly sus to me. I heard something about Amazon Prime and Patreon, and I noticed the channel name had changed from Lord Karnage to Inecom, but I did not realize he had abandoned the whole Classic Game Room thing. That seems like a dumb thing to do.
I found a YouTube video explaining some of what happened. It's a critical video so keep that in mind, but it answers some questions.
