A Pickup Story

This is a story of not only my greatest pickup to date, but most awkward as well. Special thanks to my wife, Rebecca, and nephew, CJ, for helping out with the dramatization portion of the video. For funny vlogs, music, and more, feel free to check out his channel. Thanks for watching and your support! :)

That was a really funny story and an amazing deal. I would of drove that far as well. I hope to own a TG-16 someday.

The TG16 is such a great system. It has its share of crappy titles, but the good ones are extremely good. I sold my TG16 stuff a while back, but plan on rebuilding that collection down the road. I think the Turbo Boosters can be hard to find sometimes, and especially a working CD drive. As far as US games go, I recommend also picking up Super Star Soldier, Splatterhouse, Ninja Spirit, R-Type, Air Zonk, and Dragon's Curse. Great pickups!

@beigemore Thanks for the comment and recommendations! How have you been by the way?

That is really creepy, but that is a really awesome score on the Turbo Graphix 16, i still remember playing it at my friends mostly playing Bonks. Something similar but not creepy happend to me when my brother and I went to pick up a N64 with games off of craigslist. We drove past the house really slow, and my brother sticks his hand out and points at the house like a gun and tells me is that the house, only thing is there was a bunch of people infront of the house and i think we scared them.

@rrob78 Thanks man! I would like to add Bonks to the collection at some point. LOL @ your story! I assume the pickup went okay?

@johnnyjohnson It helped that I wasn't doubled over laughing. :D

@darrenwalshsock Thanks Darren! I changed the speed/duration of that portion of the video. I think I changed it to 10x normal speed. I know what you mean about not wanting to stay. I was sending text messages to my wife during that time, just to let her know I was okay. LOL!

Nice work with this video Johnny,i loved the driving sequences how did you make the footage move by so quickly? The whole pickup story sounds completely crazy,im not sure that i would have stayed inside of the house but the Turbo Graphix was well worth hanging around for :)
