Rarity: Retro Video Game Collecting in the Modern Era (2021). 1h 41m

“Look, this u0026quot;movieu0026quot; was just put together with self-filmed clips by youtubers and liberal stock footage inserts so technically itu0026#39;s awful, but what makes it a real slog is the need to aggrandize WATA games and that whole scam. They literally just wave off valid criticism of WATA by saying itu0026#39;s all jealousy which is really something else. Then you have the fact that the key faces in this movie are simply showing off their stuff and talking about how valuable it is and how they turn down offers, etc. The actual u0026quot;realu0026quot; people like Metal Jesus, Riggs, Hancock, etc are barely in it while the hoarder scammers of the WATA crowd get to wave their proverbial dicks in your face with their rare stuff. Get a life! And no how many times someone says that preserving a sealed game etc is preserving history, pop-culture, or art, doesnu0026#39;t make it true. These things were commodities. You are celebrating plastic and cardboard. The game exists outside of those things. A part of me wishes disc rot on all their rare games, but being somewhat of a collector myself (albeit with way stronger boundaries than these people) I will admit itu0026#39;s neat to see what they have, but the smugness of them really gets me.”
