get this silent hill, metal gear solid and a couple others for ps1. Fatal fury, mvc2, last blade 2, capcom vs snk, plasma sword and i think record of lordess and a few others. I looked on ebay and there is someone who is selling most of those games. That sucks he said he doesnt own a dreamcast in the video.

There are hundreds of independent sellers on eBay, Amazon, and so on for whom games are simply merchandise too. They probably aren't making youtube videos about acquisitions, but still :lol:

Hipsters play video games?

I thought hipsters only cared about being seen in big-rimmed glasses while talking about shitty indie rock bands no one cares about while wearing ridiculous clothes that make computer nerds look like marines.

Hipsters don't and play them, they buy them to have the status of a gamer, and generally don't play or play little compared to their retro gamer counterparts.

The rest is right though.

I know a lot of people here who buy games and don't play them or play them very little... I thought they were just called collectors :P

I have yet to meet a real "hipster". All I know are people that make fun of supposed hipsters and that perhaps call friends "hipster" as a joke or call people they don't like a "hipster" as some sort of put down.

Makes no sense to me.
