I really enjoyed this documentary about the video game industry. As a child who grew up in the 80s/90s spending all my free time playing Nintendo and later sega- this was a really fun walk down memory lane. I really sympathized with all of the collectors and liked the different viewpoints and styles of collecting. Made me want to go home and hookup my N64, which is the oldest system i still own lol.
Amazing documentary for children of the 80s/90s and those interested or are currently collector's of 80s-early 90s nostalgia especially video games, and video game systems. It's well put together and briefly explains the various systems discussed for even the casual collector or for those interested in learning more about the collecting fandom. Looking forward to the possible part 2, or physical release with deleted/cut interviews which as I understand is happening!
The film is primarily based on collecting NES games and doesn't get into the nostalgia of the original era of gaming. It feels like a 2021 film based on 2021 gaming.
The people used in the film don't tell the story of gaming in the 80s and 90s and just don't have a sense of what it was like to game during this time. It's like they decided to collect something and chose NES cartridges, which produces a very boring film.

This documentary will make u feel like you went back in time to the 80s to 90s, or u took a trip to a retro arcade.
Seeing video games as a collector's game is on a whole different level.

I never knew about the people who collects old / older video games. This movie documents behind the popular video games and go deeper on people collecting games. It's funny, educational and also eye opening. Highly recommended it.
