I Finally Went Through All of It

Summary

The video documents a seven-hour review of a Facebook Marketplace haul containing roughly 2,500 items—about 2,000 games, along with consoles, toys, and accessories. The creator presents highlights rather than the full review; the complete video is available on the Boise Critical Gaming channel.

The collection is both a huge retro-game haul and a trip down memory lane. The creator revisits games he kept from childhood, including copies marked with the dates he completed them, and recalls choosing games by their box art in stores. He’s excited to play through much of the collection, though he doesn’t plan to finish every game—especially the long run of similar sports titles. He does intend to at least try nearly everything, including the odd or apparently terrible games.

Highlights

• Nostalgic favorites and forgotten gems: He fondly recalls Ghost Recon 2, NBA Street, NFL Street, Mass Effect, Silent Hill 3, Wave Race 64, and Sega Marine Fishing. He also praises War of the Monsters, Minority Report, and Red Faction: Guerrilla.
• Rare or surprising finds: The haul includes a sealed copy of the obscure Hurdy Gurdy, Sunday Funday (described as the last NES game released), Dragon Warrior III, and adult-themed NES games whose reported sale prices astonish him. He also finds boxed copies of Chip ’n Dale Rescue Rangers 2 and Snowboard Kids 2, along with many other sought-after titles.
• Authenticity and condition: He notes that some expensive-looking items may be reproductions. In particular, the Pokémon Red and Blue cartridges appear genuine, but their boxes are replicas. He also finds graded games alongside ungraded copies of the same titles.
• A broad tour of gaming history: The collection spans NES, Genesis, PlayStation, Nintendo 64, PS2, Xbox, GameCube, Game Boy, Wii, PSP, PS3, PS4, and TurboGrafx-16, among other systems. Notable discoveries include Splatterhouse for TurboGrafx-16, a large GameCube collection, and numerous special editions and accessories.
• More than games: He finds items such as a Lightning McQueen CRT television, Donkey Konga bongos, a Mario Paint mouse, consoles, power supplies, and collector’s-edition extras.
• Plans for future playthroughs: He’s especially eager to revisit series such as Castlevania and God of War, and to try games he missed, including Final Fantasy Tactics, Xenoblade Chronicles, and Dante’s Inferno. He also wants to review some notably bad or bizarre games.

The video is primarily an enthusiastic collection tour rather than a gameplay guide; it doesn’t offer step-by-step strategies or specific gameplay tips.
