In the interview, John talks about how he got into the hobby, how his tastes in collecting have changed over time, and what game he would never sell. With over 20K subscribers, John gives some tips on what it takes to have a successful video series and podcast. John’s basement collection currently contains 35 games, and it is obvious that each on has a story behind it, and a special place in John’s heart. (Disclaimer: John is very animated when he speaks, and there is noise when he bumps the table as he talks with his hands throughout the interview.)
Before the interview, your hosts Patrick and Preston talk a bit about the new reality TV show sizzle reel, Pinballers, and whether it’s a good fit for pinball. Sticking with the pinball topic, Patrick goes into detail about his new pickup of a PinSound circuit board to bring his Star Wars pinball machine out of the disco era. Finally, Preston details some of his new gameroom additions including his late-to-the-party Wii U acquisition and newly-constructed LED-lit shelf for collectibles.
