yeah, but its like making fun of a guy that not only didn't know crap but CLAIMED to know crap and made a youtube.com video proclaiming the crap they didn't know. If a guy seriously went on youtube and started giving flower arranging tips that was blatantly wrong, I would not blame a florist at all for making a parody of it. And what about celebrity gossip? HELLO, THE SOUP WITH JOEL MCHALE! (although you are british so you probably don't get E! network)Quote:

The main point here is don't act like an expert if you are a noob or even a newb.
Ok, someone had to say it, and I'm pretty buzzed:
I'd completely hit that. Just based on her interest in retrogaming and her voice. Seriously. However, it should be duly noted I have not looked at any of her other videos. Just don't want to ruin the fantasy. http://www.vinylfetish.net/images/smilies/spock.gif
Slightly more on-topic:
Rarity depends on how you do your shopping. If I were limiting myself to strictly local stores, I'd have exactly zero Neo-Geo MVS games. I wouldn't have flux or my Japanese Sonic the Hedgehog cart. Locally speaking, games like SMB3 and Mario Kart (not in the video but I'd buy it if it ever showed up locally) can be hard to come by. Most of the flea markets and retro stores around here have everything except the "common" top-selling titles and when they do have them, they're horribly overpriced. If you're looking for NHL '94 or some crap, it's no problem, but anything more desirable than that and you'd have some issues.
Finally, I say don't knock someone because they're proud of their collection. I'd say this whether they were male or female or whatever. Sure, it may not seem like anything special to people like us, the uber-hardcore collectors, but if someone's busted their ass trying to get a game that's important to them and they want to talk about it on Youtube, let them have their fun, IMO.
You're not alone. This one's my favorite:Quote:

again, like I said before, its not funny that the guy made fun of her, its just how good of a job he did in doing so. Honestly i would find his video funny without knowing it was based on her video, its just that watching her video first makes you understand a couple of jokes like saying the greatest hits are worth more and how he laid all his games out, etc. I'm not laughing at the fact that he's e-body slamming her, I'm just laughing at the ridiculous things he came up with to say about the games.Quote:

So stop trying to score 'nyeer nyeer' points!
I've come to realize she isn't the only one with a very erroneous rare game video, he could have been making fun of another one (one of the hundreds) and it just seemed to me he was making fun of hers. They are all the same, some dude that's never really looked into rarity AT ALL hops online and claims he has the rarest game collection ever. I saw one from some central/south american posters with a bunch of SNES games with torn labels, all relatively common, maybe 50 total, and the dude with the camera is like "OMG NO ONE HAS EVER OWNED SO MANY SNES GAMES EVER, YOU HAVE THE BEST COLLECTION IN THE WORLD!!!!11!!one!!!1" So, again, stop focusing on the fact that a girl made a video (OMG NO WAI!) and just listen to the funny comments of the guy making the parody video, that was the real focus here.Quote:

this is my favorite, god awful, lol! I'll give him a little credit because I'm sure its harder to find SNES games in Mexico, but the dude filming it is such a toolbag.

Still you are talking about casual collectors simply showing off their collection to other casual collectors. It is like bothering to poke fun at casual DVD collectors for not know what is really collectible.Quote:

Mythicon?
The $9.95 price shows enough reasons why the 2600 caused the console market to crash.
