LGR Fifteen Years Later
Added 2024-06-28 13:00:17 +0000 UTCI can't believe this but... I'm celebrating 15 years of LGR! And when I first starting making these videos, the retro gaming and vintage computer scene looked quite different. So let's take a look back at how much the hobby has changed in the last decade and a half! Which is mostly for the better, I feel.
Thank you, genuinely. for your ongoing support, on here and elsewhere over the last fifteen years. It's been a blast and I certainly have no plans on stopping anytime soon :)

I could not get enough of your content when I first discovered you like 12 years ago, I found someone talking about all the old DOS games I loved and I was elated. Thank you so much Clint!

2024-07-04 07:35:18 +0000 UTCGG, I´m not that long a viewer of yours(since 2021), but appreciate the content. And unfortunately in one thing you are right - prices for old hardware are skyrocketing. I don´t collect old PCs that much(would be a space issue) but older digicams and some handhelds like Psion and HP LX. Often people have very odd and outrageous ideas what these are worth. Like "oh hey, I throw in a carry case with dirt on it, some ancient memory cards with small capacity, some tele-converter that makes everything unsharp and that stuff alone means I can ask 300 bucks for that!" LOL, certainly not.

2024-06-29 16:08:59 +0000 UTCWhat a great video, glad to have been on this journey with you. I also felt very alone back in those days, like nobody cared about our games and systems, I never could have imagined the landscape we're in today.

2024-06-29 13:24:23 +0000 UTCClint, I have thoroughly enjoyed your videos for at least 9 of your 15 years on YouTube. And I’ve said it before on Twitter, but after watching the IBM Unboxing, the power of the algorithm led me to a video from my current boss, and somehow I turned that into a job. The internet and YouTube is a big, weird place, and I hope to see you around on it for years to come.

2024-06-29 01:58:21 +0000 UTCGreat work on these last 15 years. I was also surprised to see my a screen shot from my website showing off my QX-10 CF adapter, always fun to see my work show up in other peoples videos.

2024-06-29 00:31:18 +0000 UTCWell, of those billion of things you’d change if you did it all over again, I suppose that is all of the hard earned wisdom so you continue improving. Congrats on 15 years and bringing us along on this fun, retro journey.

2024-06-28 23:36:01 +0000 UTCGreat work!! Have to say I completely agree with the thrifting comments. It has been years since I walked into a Goodwill or other shop and found anything but piles of what I consider junk. I'm not there for clothes or sports stuff or glassware, I want my awesome random electronics back, dang it! lol Words can't express the little jolt of just pure happiness I get every time I get the notification that there is a new video. You are very much appreciated. Here's to many more years of fun!

2024-06-28 16:40:11 +0000 UTCThank you for giving some credit to where Linux is at right now. I'm so happy I could finally just ditch Windows entirely unless it is XP or 98SE.

2024-06-28 14:59:45 +0000 UTCI haven't been on the bus for the whole 15 years but am on the bus for the long run now. It was a pleasure to have met you at Computer Reset two years ago. Hard for me to believe its been that long but time flies when we're having fun and even when we're not.

2024-06-28 14:50:31 +0000 UTCI am just going to fluff my ego and take responsibility for the mention of linux and proton, so excuse me while I sit over here and squee. Lol A great video man, some of the look backs gave me nostalgia chills. Heres to another 15 years of (Or however long you choose to, and continue to enjoy) doing LGR, LGR Blerbs, and the biggest and most important of all.. LGR foods :p

2024-06-28 14:00:16 +0000 UTCThank you, Clint, for fifteen years of LGR. You put together really great videos, on such interesting topics, and I'm really enjoying the bird streams these days, too. It's such a delight to see new videos from your channel(s), and I'm happy to continue my support.
