Hey Guys/Gals! :D

Just wanted to let you all know that I'm going to start doing videos again here soon. I got to get some free time to work on the cave. It's gonna have so much better lighting and looks than the old videos! :)

It's been a crazy busy year... but I'm ready to get rolling with restorations again.

We will be removing the store/items listed on this page and I have created a new marketplace for retro games. It's gonna be a no BS, fun place to buy/sell. There will be moderators to watch for scams, fake profiles, bootlegs being passed off as real, and we will keep away the toxic people that have made some of the other buy/sell/trade communities soooo disappointing.

There will be monthly live auctions hosted by me, prizes to give away, and lots of fun!

Come join us and see what our first contest is! It's gonna be announced Friday! :D

It's been a rough few months. Between health issues... having covid for a 3rd time... and depression... I've done literally nothing with my channel/page. Work is starting back up. Feeling healthy again. Got that itch. No... not that kind.

Some exciting news coming soon.

If you are run a game channel... and are on the east coast... message me. I have something really cool coming up and I'd like to include as many game channels as possible.

Teaser... :O Yes, it's blurred on purpose.

This system is looking sexy! :D Can't wait for you to see the final video coming within the next week! :D

I normally like to just give stuff away... but I have such an excess of XBOX systems, and parts, that I need to sell some to start buying other stuff to work on. If anyone needs OG XBOX parts, or wants a fully restored and modded system, let me know.

Short little video tonight at 9 PM ET. Pouring an XBOX jewel. Finished product will be shown on the final Gaming off the Grid video in about a week.

My first attempt at pouring an XBOX jewel! Come see me screw it up! :D My first attempt at pouring an XBOX jewel! Come see me screw it up! :D00:01 - RGR Intro00:32 - --------------------------------------------------------------...

Bah... gotta love mother nature. 4 days of rain again.

For now... while I wait for parts and painting... I'll be making videos of my collection! What would you like to see? :P

Launch Day Nintendo Restoration - Part 1!
Scheduled for 10:30 PM ET! Come check out the first of two videos in this restoration series!

So... I managed to salvage the part of the video that was messed up. Unfortunately, it's enlarged and the quality isn't that great now... but at least I have footage to go with the audio now. :) Finishing up this edit then will start piecing together part 1.

I got parts in the mail today, so I can start on part 2! YAY! :)

Part 1 should be out this evening... maybe 9-10 PM ET!

So... my birthday is coming up on the 28th! :D If anyone wants to send me broken games or systems for me to repair on the channel... :)

*giggle*

No, seriously. :) I want stuff to fix. ;)
