@@DoubleJumpVideoGames Are you based in Fort Myers FL? That's where I'm at!

Retro Rick might have the best gaming store in the entire country. It’s like a museum/ gaming store. The fact he’s only had it for almost a year is insane.

Some stores might be bigger, loaded with more inventory, prices could be better, Ricks store is basically a gaming store/museum for nostalgia. Pink gorilla is awesome from what I've seen too. But what Double Jump has something thats hard to duplicated from my "perspective "That's Cooper & Abbey's charisma. Their staff/the whole crew. Everyone is so likeable and friendly. Every store mentioned here are special in their own way. Great job guys.

I love these IRL crossovers xD

2 of my favorite gamestores. Planning to go to USA from the Netherlands and want to visite these stores. See ya in the future!

When two of the greatest stores in retro gaming collide

I kinda miss the old videos he had and the cool game room with all of his collection.😢

14:26 I was about to say that It'd be so rad to have a cover printing service for people to order bespoke covers for their games. I love the idea of Store specific covers as well. I really gotta come by DJVG.

My two favorite KZread video game store owners!!!!! Love it! Now Retro Rick you need to visit him!!!!!

I do love me some Retro Rick videos, seems like the sweetest guy ever! Sadly I dont live in US so visiting the store would be kind of hard but if I ever get there then i will try and met him :) Great video btw! Not only praise for the adorible Rick

Game Point was my local video game store when I went to college at UCA in Conway in the early 2010s. It was already the best game store in Arkansas but Rick has taken it to an entirely new level.

He did a really amazing job with that store! I hope I can visit one day!

This is the collab I've been waiting for! Thank you both!

I love this little interview and game store tour

Omg I been watching both channels for years this makes me excited!

Awesome collab for sure. Retro Rick has a very cool looking store. Cool video as well. Thank you both and take care.

Retro Rick's Ren & Stimpy shirt is off the chain! Instant nostalgia for me because I had the same one in the 90s. I loved that show and still watch it today on DVD with my kids.💚 🤘😁👍

Very cool that the only two game store channels I watch did a collab. I heart you

Cool seeing you visit this store

Glad to see yalls channel blow up and collab with other big channels 🔥🔥 hope to see yall in store again soon ❤

Two of the best! Love the collab!

Great video, Rick's place looks so cool I might have to take road trip down south.

Good video guys..great store Rick..PRG would rock with all of you there..GET IT DONE!!..

i have been waiting for this collab for years! 😁

Great collab for sure. 2 of my favorite

I love that block that Game Point is on. I can't wait to visit, myself.

Simpson statute looks really cool (it says: Come here.. sit down.. and let's your friend take picture of you with Simpsons..). Great to see Retro Rick's game shop!

I regret not visiting your store before I moved to Georgia. Maybe one day when I visit home.

So cool!!!! Rick you need to come PRGE and also come to Coopers store as well!! Such a great collab. I was wondering why there wasn’t a vlog for a while and when this popped up I remembered 😂😂

Having the statues and other memorabilia does draw in more attention from shoppers. Even if they do not buy anything, they may pass the word about the statues to friends and family. If I had a game store, it would be set up like yours and Rick's.

Ricks store just makes me feel happy

I'm sure you can create a killer game store if you get a bigger space! Good luck with that! Btw, are you guys still considering getting a laundromat?

It’s like Marvel and DC just converged!

Come to PRGE !!!!! I really like also seeing the business side of things, it makes it so much more relatable and actually even personable! I love it! I love collabs like this! We need another one of Hairy Tornado too, please!!!!

fun video i love Rick hes a good dude glad i can call him a friend

Great video. Hope to check out this store one day...

Great people. Great Content Creators. Great store. Life is good and fun video is fun.

The advantages of his store jump at the eyes immediately to me: 1) There's next to no "empty space" to look at (I.E. portions of walls with nothing, etc). There's a lot to look at. The kind of place where every little nook and crannies got something to look at or that will grab your attention (and is buyable, most of the time, outside of the big statues for decoration). 2) The above point allows this: the consumer will be tempted to keep exploring, it will basically convince / influence the consumer to stay in the store longer; which increases the potential for a purchase. It's part of a carefully thought-out procedure in retail to maximize "store time" on the part of the people coming in. 3) The staff is amazing and they, themselves, will convince you in a way to stay and chat (even if just briefly). They seem to all be knowledgeable about video gaming in general which means - with time - a consumer going there regularly could create a real bond of friendship with the staff and sometimes just talk about gaming this, and gaming that. That, in turn, gives the impression to other newcomer consumers in the store of a very friendly and welcoming place to buy and sale gaming stuff. Basically Retro Rick didn't miss a beat, it's retail well done, and well thought out.

Retro Mike is a pretty awesome guy, even if he never get the Nintendo Powers I need

Rick’s on point about leveraging that massive space for front-facing inventory. Not only does merchandising this way present better, but also helps manage inventory levels Fillmore effectively. He’s smarter than he looks! 😛

Nice A Retro Rick Double Jump Collaboration

Holy s*** yeah collapses f****** badass

Great crossover!

The collab we knew we needed. Love it

You don’t have a lot of Sega stuff because it’s all in my collection!! 😉 18:50

I ❤ the Bart Simpson "Cool You're Jetts, Man" t-shirt. I had one when I was a kid. FYI - I'm now 43.

So glad Thicc Slimer made an appearance!

I think the entrance to the shop looks so congested with all the statues specially the Hulk doesn’t belong there. I think it belongs up in the storage area looking down on everyone.

I got to complete a dream with this video being the 1000th like

Custom Retro Rick switch game covers just a simple logo and character thats in the games. theyd sell

Collaboration of the decade

That professional lighting idea for the new place sounds great! As a theft deterrence and night time advertising, i hope it happens.

He needs security cameras installed throughout and right outside his store. All connected to a computer on the second floor.

Awesome colab!!!

7:20 YES..i hate looking at spines..."movies,games,books"...I dont have the time or patience for looking through thousands of spines..AND low shelves is a pet peeve as well. Bad back and im not 20 anymore. So having shelves up around knee high and higher is good for people like myself.

I just picked up the Donkey Kong Banana Hammock also ! Ready for beach season waa hoo !

Awesomeness

Ricks store is cool and all but my dream is still to visit Double Jump hopefully in October

I have that same grabber 😂 its perfect

You can tell Retro Rick puts alot of love and care into his store. I hope he does well in the future.

Best game store I ever saw better then gamestop love the Ronald McDonald and Ghostbusters

You should travel to more stores across the country

150k plus subs , beast mode. Route to 200k subs

Retro Rick store is a gem

Favorite is the Simpsons couch freezing awesome 👍🏻

Oh cool

Those DJVG branded cases, will you sell them loose? Would love some those for my switch games.

I wanna visit both of your shops then off to Japan for super potato 😊

Were you planning on crossing through north Texas before angling further back north?

Hahahahahahaha "Sign my banana sleeve"

I'd love to go to both of your stores but unfortunately, the road trip from Bangkok would be a bit too far.

Dam good video!

That Tails statue is cursed. I want it.

I love gaming.
