Riff, that outro legitimately made my wife cry. AMAZING JOB

I did not expect a masterpiece in explaining 90s nostalgia at the end. That part needs to be it's own video. It is epic.

The 90s was the best decade that there was, or ever will be. I'm sad for those who never got to experience it.

I'm literally shaking from the sheere nostalgia this outro gave me. Please give this it's own video. Really want to share it. It perfectly summarizes why i'm collecting N64 and watch WCW Monday Nitro Episodes over and over again. Dude, thank you! ♥️

I have the same feeling for the 80s. And early 90s. Amazing times, indeed. No cells, no internet, just our imaginations, our friends, and the sweet nectar of water from the hose.

90s onions are affecting my eyes. Totally wasn't prepared for this video. 😭

Im so privileged to have been born in 85. Being the last generation to truly be a kid and have all those wonderful things you talked about but also to grow up as technology grew up. Being able to fully understand and use today's technology but also know how to survive without it is something that is mostly unique to us 80s and early 90s kids

Did not expect to get emotional watching a PGS video. That outro was great.

I grew up in the 80s and 90s and feel extremely blessed to have experienced the 2 best eras of all time.. that 90s tribute to end the video was pure gold. Great job, Riff!

The final segment on the 90s is so good. Thanks for the flashback of memories!

Being born in 75 makes me so thankful to grow up when i did. I was able to enjoy the best of toys and the best gaming era ever. To live it all and watch it unfold created truly amazing memories. Great outro. Reminded me alot of when AVGN did the outro on growing up in that era. You cant truly appreciate it unless you lived it and reflecting on it bring the happiness of the memories and the tears of wishing you could do it all again.

Never realize what a golden era your in until it's over, that ending hit hard as a 95 kid. Some of the last true childhoods 90s to early 00s in my opinion

Well done 90's montage at the end. Really reminded me of how many awesome movies we had. I don't really watch movies anymore.

I am absolutely bombarded by this video going from a regular cool swap meet to a brief summary of the beauty that was the 90s. Makes me wish I was born a decade earlier.

The 90's outro was masterpiece, but there are levels of nostalgia, Aaron. Hearing you frame those words against the thoughtful sound-track, and the intentionally meaningful inflections of your voice... it made me nostalgic for Retro Liberty.

You guys need to make that 90s video it’s own video and post it on other socials so it’s easy to share! You guys captured the feeling of the 90s perfectly and i want as many people to see it as possible. What an unbelievable time we got to live through and experience fully

Dam Riff your bit about the 90's was moving! Really hit home with me x much love from the UK ❤

That outro made me so happy that i grew up in the 90's, it brought back so many good memories. Sometimes i feel old but i can at least say i grew up in one of the best generations.

Still don’t understand how this channel doesn’t have over a million subs. Epic video and love the outro. Almost brought a tear to my eye😢😊

Randomly came across Retro Rick about 6 months ago, got hooked. Finally got curious to see what else Riff and Ricky were up to and have been thoroughly enjoying this and the Plus channel. But this video... holy moly. As a father of 6 (soon to be 7), this really encapsulates the kind of world we are desperately trying to raise these kids into. Loved loved loved that outro.

Wow dude that ending had me in tears 😭

Dang, Ricky always has the best shirts to me. Gambit was one of my favorites on the X-men cartoon and he has an ALL OVER print of it? He can't keep getting away with all of his shirt swag. I need that and his Gengar shirt. Love the video. Always enjoy seeing you guys have fun and the energy in these videos.

Awesome montage brother. That's exactly how I feel about the 80s, and even the early 90s. I turned 13 in the summer of 1990 and it's a time in my life that I look back on and cherish with great admiration.

Dude. This might be my favorite video on all of KZfaq, ironic I know being on a social media platform. Well done. Then end was fantastic. As a child of the 90s it saddens me that today's age is instant gratification but I know I can always go back with my collection of my past.

you nailed the 90s in 5 min, amazing stuff riff. so happy I got to live in it. born in 87.

Riff, great job!👍🏾 Showing and talking about the 90,s! All those clips and everything you said really got to me, I have a 12 year old boy and he has no idea what it was like for guys like us! I gotta show him this! Keep it up Pixel squad 👏🏾 What up Ricky!!! 🎮🕹

The ending is really something special, well said A-A-RON♥

How silly you guys are in the majority of the video juxtaposed with the seriousness of the outro really hit hard. And that silliness really kind of echoes the 90s friendships you were describing at the end. Well done! Love you guys!

Ending caught me off guard & it hurts too deeply because of how true it is, 90s-early 00s are just simply unmatched

Riff, as a 90s kid myself, that outro resonated with me SO MUCH. It was amazing dude. Putting aside ideas like the butterfly effect, If time travel ever becomes a mainstream thing and can be proven to be safe without any detriment to the person time traveling or on the world as a whole from the time after which said person time travels back to, I'd LOVE to go back to the 90s specifically, even if only for a day but hopefully much longer and just bask in the availability of things that I miss. And of course the nostalgia. Like the original first few sets of Pokemon cards, Gameboy Colors and Super Nintendos being on store shelves, getting to rewatch all the classic cartoons on tv, etc. And I'd want some money too so I could bring some of that stuff back to the present with me. The 90s were so awesome! :D

The retro 90's part was amazing! For me it was the 80's but the same feelings now. Nostalgia is strong. Congrats on 100k subs also, you guys rock!!

This is the best PGS video yet. Riff crafted an absolute masterpiece of a tribute to the greatest decade of all time. To start with with a swap meet where Riff and Ricky both were in excellent moods and firing on all cylinders to end with that tribute was nothing short of incredible. This feels like your guy's Magnum Opus. With the swelling score and Riff's incredible monologue over expertly crafted video of pure 90s nostalgia, it simply doesnt get better than this on all of KZfaq. I cant express how much I appreciate you guys and the work you put in for your dedicated fans. This video was a rollercoaster of memories and emotions ending with a heartfelt nod to the greatest generation of nerds and collectors the world will ever know. We love you and we love this channel and a special shout out to Riff for creating what is now my favorite KZfaq video of all time. Thank you. So much.

I was born in 1991 and I shed a tear listing to you talk about the 90s every word you spoke Is true and all of us toys r us kids will be the only ones who know the fond feelings you speak of I can say I'm proud to have been a part of such simple times and hope one day maybe just maybe the world cab get back to such cool times I hope to one day meet you riff your awesome and remind me of the 90s

Outstanding. Just incredible video Riff.

The 90's was the greatest of all time and i'm very glad and privileged to have been a part of it. I shed a tear watching the end of this video. Thank you very much!! Very touching.

The end about the 90s hit me right in the heart 😢

That speech was EVERYTHING. Literally was my childhood and I sure as hell could not have put it into words as eloquently as you did. Thank you so much for that.

Love the 90s outro Aaron. The 90s was simply amazing. So many awesome music, movies, cartoons, video games and toys. Thank you for taking the time to make this throwback outro. Take me back to that time please.

Wow what a heartfelt speech about what we all once knew in the 90s. Absolutely love this channel

The big vhs is just called 3/4 inch tapes. Have many of them and players at my house.

I was born in 1990 and feel very blessed to have experienced every year of it. Having 2 older sisters show me the way and guide me through that decade is an experience I will forever be grateful for.

Wow the 90’s montage at the end was insane thanks for bringing back so many good memories with that segment that was great thanks Riff 🖤‼️

Love this video. Brings back memories from the 90s.

I know I'm already a few days late, but what you did from 14:49 minutes onwards was one of the deepest, most nostalgic, melancholic and even saddest things I've ever seen. Many congratulations to whoever put that together and to whoever wrote the text. It seems like your thing, Riff, and if it's your thing, you really touched several points that are very dear to me, but at the same time very sensitive as well. I was born in 1978, so I'm an archaic dinosaur by today's standards, I grew up during half of the 80s, but I especially remember the 90s as the definitive era of my personal and intellectual development. There will never be anything like this era again, from music, to video games, to the physical interaction we had and the simplicity and lightness that everything seemed to have. Everything was real and simpler. Personally, I'm from a generation that was born analogue, but grew up digital, so I've experienced both sides of the coin. Pieces like this make me want more and more to go back in time, even though I know that won't be possible. It makes me sad, like I said, but also very happy to have lived in that time and to have had so many good memories that I've been able to hold on to to this day. A big THANK YOU to all of you, Pixel Game Squad. I've been following your content for a while now and it's because of moments like these that I know how real you are and I appreciate what you do to try and capture those times through your collections. Thank you very much to all of you!

My wife and I have had a stressful few months with work and life. Two weeks ago, I made an old style party invite, asking my wife to come over to my 'back in the day' sleepover party. She was so happy when she read it and would frequently tell me how excited she was. So this Saturday we dragged our matress downstairs, ordered a pizza, found and ate snacks that reminded us of the 90s, played Super Nintendo and watched the original Candyman on VHS whilst snuggled into retro sleeping bags, wearing pyjamas of our favourite cartoons when we were kids. We are in our late 30s/early 40s and we had the best date night in ages. Watching this video reaffirmed exactly what we said last night. The 90s was simpler but so much fun! Thanks guys, that was beyond beautiful!

Riff, that ending was incredible! I know you had to be emotional doing that voice over because, as a 90’s kid myself, I got teary eyed watching it. Fantastic work

Dude, that gambit shirt is 🔥🔥🔥 Also, that 90’s bit at the end hit hard. Legitimately one of the best things you’ve ever done on this channel ❤️ ✊

I knew all my closest friends growing up thanks to gaming. We use to talk about our favourite games and moments in secondary school and play out our favourite scenes in Primary school. My favourite memories were going round each other houses playing each others consoles and games. I'm now 30 and feel like with everything being online people aren't truly connected. Talking to people online is ok but it doesn't feel the same then going up to a person randomly, start talking, instantly clicking with them and becoming friends. That Outro really reminded me of my childhood.

Born in 84 and wow, Riff. I had a FLOOD of memories come back and at times teared up. Excellent job.

Riff! Tony here from Carthage Missouri Born and raised in Anaheim I have endless memories of walking the same paths at Golden West Swapmeet every Saturday morning the way you and the crew walk now. Bro I just want to say that what your doing is Terrific. What you just presented today in this video is truly inspiring and amazing. Thank you for keeping the 90s life alive and thank you for what you do! Keep it UP! ( I use to work for computer works Goodwill in Santa Ana so its Cool to see Brian in your videos from time to time lol )

Yoooo that ending got me in the feels 😢. 87' baby here. Growing up in the 90's with my older sister, Was like no other.Thanks for the reminder that we had it good. 😎

damn man....i was NOT expecting to be in TEARS from this video. You described my childhood perfectly and I miss it more than anything.

Beautiful depiction of the 90s in the end. Glad was born in the best era for kids. Awesome

That 90's clip was awesome and you are right we can never get back the innocence of the 90's or even earlier. I remember when my next door neighbor got an intellivision and it started my game fever and collecting. As Archie Bunker would say.. those were the days

I was a 70’s kid and 80’s teenager, so I really appreciated your reminiscing about what it was like to be a kid in the 90’s. Thank you!

the ending of this Vid...boy oh boy...that summed it up for a lot of us...great job guys!!!

It's one of the greatest videos you've done. Absolutely brought a smile and atear to my face. Great job on this one

I miss the old times kids now will never understand what the 90s/early 2000s were like when I pass I want to relive the good times for ever on repeat with everyone

Wasn't expecting the 90s tribute to hit me like that. 😢

Riff, That whole short about the '90s that you put on the second half of the video, you got to post that all by itself, it's something that's got to go viral, You brought up things man I haven't thought about since I was 5 or 6 years old

2:23 the mannequin head next to Ricky 😂

Wow. I’m tearing up over here. That was so poignant and bittersweet. Thanks PGS for all the throwbacks and nostalgia. Love y’all!

I was in my 20's in the 90's, so much fun picking up new Sega games as they came out and then buying a launch PS 1 an playing games with my kids when they were young...

I found a Thrashed version of that Mighty Ducks shirt a couple years back and sold it for like $60.

Brother, that outtro was unreal and really hit home. It temporarily brought back the feelings/memories of being with my family members that are no longer here. The countless hours of game play and tv shows with my brother. Please make another one

Wtf was that ending??!! My wife nearly started crying and I just don't find any words. Brilliant, seriously, I don't know if you edited it Riff, or you "just" wrote it and narrated it, but it's beautiful and brilliant. Huge shout out to whoever edited it as well, it is perfect. The piano, the videos, the message, it's just perfect. (apparently I did find some words lol, also thanks Ricky for his Goldfinger performance , really made my day🤘)

Oh my gosh that outro really hit me off guard I absolutely loved it! Not ashamed to say it choked me up a bit. Over the last month or two I've been bingeing your back catalogue because I just love being a part of the fun that you guys have then suddenly this... This put into words exactly how I feel about collecting and WHY WE DO IT! Thank you Riff and the rest of PGS!!

I'm a 90's kid and that little video at the end brought back memories. I gotta say i do get nostalgic for the 90's but at the same time i enjoy the present. I love this media era that we live in.

Born in 97 So I still had a good amount of the spill over of the 90's in my early 2000's childhood and your outro reminded me of much more simple times.

Tug on those nostalgic heart strings riff…I was born in 81, nothing with ever be closer to my heart than my experiences as a 80s and 90s kid. If we could only freeze time or at least get the world to realize we need to go back to simpler times…

well dang that bit at the end just brought me to tears because thats exactly what i tell others when they ask me why do i collect all this retro stuff i love this community i know we all feel this way so dont ever let your inner child die keep these memories alive !

Great 90s summary. I've always thought that it's strange that this generation as you say in need of instant gratification have access to the most amount of knowledge (literally in their pockets) yet they seem to be the least informed. Phones and social media have sadly dumbed down society instead of increasing the average intellect 😞

Dude that outro…no words man. Brought tears to my eyes. Love it. Please make a separate clip of just that lead up and outro so it can be shared more widely. Thank you for making thar

the outro kicks very different, remembering all of this stuff makes me very happy. 90s so simple but beautiful

Was not anticipating being in my feelings this Thursday. I’ve been feeling super depressed about the fact we can’t go back, but also so grateful for being born in 86. Dang it Riff, you always get me. Love this channel and everyone in the squad.

Part of the reason I watch and collect is to get a piece of that nostalgia... To see you guys finding the things I grew up with and remembering the simpler times. That outro hit it! Thank you for putting that together and reminding us of what we had.

90s= the GOAT years

Editor Rift totally hitting us with that morgan freeman like outro was nothing short of amazing . U just put our hole lives in a 7min clip and it took many of us back I'm sure like it was yesterday . We are blessed to have lived during such an era . I wouldn't trade it for the world . If I could go back to those Days I would in heart beat . I miss it all so much . Thanks for that man .

I have to say, I got pretty emotional with the 90s nostalgia part at the end. It's true that times then were much simpler, and things were much truer than they are today.

It's sad we'll never see it again and the people that didn't get to will never experience nothing like it

I have watched this channel grow since NES Pursuit… this journey you guys are on is a wonderful thing to experience… This has been one of the best ones yet… Congratulations and thank you for sharing

Damn that Ode to Nostalgia got me 🥲

DUDE! the end is amazing just amazing and soo true... Maybe someday just maybe we can have our 90's return once again... Thanks Riff and the Crew for that great flash back to the best times, Keep it alive with this channel please and great work. /crying

Wow that really hit home. There’s definitely a reason I love collecting it brings a comforting warmth and return of hopefulness to my household. Thanks for the reminder why we do this! Hope to bring some of the values we learned in the 90s to our children coming up!!

Man I miss the 90s childhood. You never know what you had til it's gone and it's really sad to know that nothing will come close to the 90s and so many generations are missing out on something that was truly special.

you truly never appreciate something tell its gone thats for sure. i miss the 90s so much thanks for finding all this footage and resparking my love for things in the 90s and as i sit here playing runescape i think about all the memorys of my childhood thank you

9-11 changed everything. 😢 Thank you for that outro. Goose bumps x1000.

The ode to the 90s really hit home with me. Talk about a punch to the feels with reliving our childhoods, well played sir, well played

Your description of the 90s sounds a lot like the 80s to me. In the 90s I graduated high school I had a job you know grown up stuff but it still brought back memories from my childhood. Thanks to you and your entire crew.

Riff and the guys just get it. The 90’s was such a great time and I’m so glad I was a kid during that time. I think the pixel games squad should do a documentary in this style and take it to festivals, that end segment was moving 🙌

The 80’s were my childhood graduating in ‘91 in the military 1993 and Gaming was more than a fad. The memories I gave from then through now. Carefree days , gaming, friends fun. Great video 🤟🏼

I miss the 90s everyday. Life just feels so empty now. I will forever cherish that part of my life. We all have to remember how lucky we were to experience such a beautiful chapter of human existence as KIDS. Everything breathed creation and art. Our imaginations ran wild every single day. Absolutely loved the outro, dude.

Bro! I'm from Puerto Rico, and that hit me right in my feelings. Made me remember my awesome childhood. Thanks for that video, we the 90's kids needed that video desperately.

Rarely does “ stick Around for the end for something special at the end” stand and deliver. This was something special thank you Riff and Pixel squad for this amazing video. Words can’t describe what that outro just did for me

That 90's outro was amazing. Have you ever thought about making a full length documentary on this? It really hit home for me and from the comments I'm seeing, many others as well. Keep it up #90s

wow, outro is amazing, this is my childhood, thanks

The 90s was the best great to have been a child in the 90s if I could back in time I would pick 90s

Riff honestly bro you have tugged at my heart strings on that outro so many memories there on thoughs flash backs, and this is why we collect nostalgia to try and have an escape from the normal media day to day life when back then it was just simple,love the content and the crew much love Josh peace out x

The Super Smash Bros. commercial with the song "So Happy Together" playing as they beat each other up remains my favorite TV commercial of all time.

From someone who was born in the 80's but lived in the 90's, that video encapsulated what the 90's were about.
