alright
ok
sadly gamestop is leaving Ireland I can't buy my games anymore 😔
I went to the same park you did in Super Mario 74.
When i can tell what city you where in, in Iowa... XD
Out of all the GameStops in PA you literally went to my local one lmao
Hey Schaffrillas!
IKR. XD
He went to my local one too
The fact that he went to a gamestop in Oklahoma that I pass by pretty commonly, and there wasn't a Sonic and the Secret Rings poster anymore blew my mind.
I ligit just watched you before this video
Fun fact: there are only two escalators in the entire state of Wyoming, making it the only state to have more GameStops than escalators.
Wyoming is such a funny state
@@jeepmega629 even the name is goofy, wyoming
wyoming, more like WHYDIDYOUNAMEITTHISoming
@@yololthepikminenjoyer I wyome
man i would hate that state (I love escalators)
Route 50: Being called the loneliest road in America South Dakota highways: Are you challenging me?
So are we just gonna ignore John completely disappearing for the rest of the video after day 12 lmfaooo
Yes
The fact you spent about $2500 and only saved 50 is the most gamestop thing I've ever heard
It so is. It's not even enough for a new game.
A dollar per state.
It really is. I have like 70K points over almost a decade & that's apparently only like 60 dollars of discounts.
And if he traded in all of the games he got on his journey, he would be lucky to get 2 dollars.
@@R3D_Lantern at least you still have your points. Over a decade's worth for me and they threw it all away because I wasn't subscribed for a while
Hey dude I was the TSA guy who recognized you. It was actually crazy surreal to see one of my favorite KZheadrs come through. Hope carls doing well, and I love the video!
That’s awesome 🎉
🧢🧢🧢
bro is cappin
bro dont lie you post clash royale vids
Okay if you're fr... how many muslims have you done a cavity search on?
I would love to do this with independent game shops. They always have a cool promotional material to give away.
Seems like a way better idea
20:00 Bro the music adds so much to this comment
This is so wild haha awesome to finally see this uploaded
yeah me to
As an Ohioan myself, it was quite cool to see him go to the Steelyard Commons GameStop, one that I’ve been to a few times.
Hey I’m from Ohio too
Imposter >:( I’m the real yoshi!!
Im also from Ohio
he shoulda gone to one of the ones in cincinnati
When he was in Ohio i noticed the highway thing that they were on.
12:29 I believe the holes are for straight line winds. If you're near Lake Erie, it isn't uncommon to have some strong winds coming off the water.
*e n t e r f a c t*
Hold up. Ain't you Nathaniel B?
So awesome to see this done! Absolutely handsome mad boys
Yeah Connor!
Ohhh my god is that Conner the waffle from fortnight
hey Conner
The fact he felt worse playing every Mario game in a week than driving and flying through the entire country over the course of a month scares me
Sometimes the travel is good for us gamers who stay inside all the time
To be fair, he did go to Hawaii at the start of it which likely helped a lot.
9:05
Going on an adventure like this with friends does sound amazing
Probably because traveling the entire country is a lot more free feeling than being in your house for a week on a screen
One of my favorite videos from you. Keep up the good work bandy!
Ngl, this has become one of my favorite videos from Nathaniel
My deepest condolences for Carl and his ear, really unfortunate that he had to go through that during the trip
Press F to pay respect to him
@@NueIsBestWaifuF
Nathaniel and the gang being a big boss team for doing this exploit. Praise for Carl for feeling better soon.
i love these manchildren so much lmao
Sus bus
Hey excuse me whats the song at 3:23
As a Marylander, they rarely sell DS and Wii games like they used to
I'm 90% sure the south dakota store used to be an electronics boutique. Not an EB games, but the original color scheme for electronics boutique before it got rebranded/bought out. My local mall had one when I was growing up and I recognize those purple walls anywhere.
30:31 That's definitely an older Holiday Inn room 🤣
The dedication that went into this project is astounding. 😂 Well done, guys!!
Verified person and only a bot, cool.

This is pure dedication 💪

Thank you man
How about I thank you now?
If you ever do something like this again, it would be cool to see 50 states worth of mom & pop game stores. You’d see a lot more variety for sure.
Yeah.. That would be neat..
gamespot should of sponsored him.. for all that effort
I would watch the heck out of that
Literally had this same idea 😂
Never heard of it
I found this video inspiring. I'm always sitting at home on the weekends and can hardly say I have any real friends atm.. I would like to go on a similar adventure some day.. Respect man.
11:28 the fact that my local game stop is literally not even 0.5 miles away from a Lowe’s and a Home Depot is crazy 💀💀
Visiting 48 states in 3 weeks might sound insane to a normal person, but this is Nathaniel Bandy. He's done challenge videos that have pushed him to that point since 2019
Don't forget alaska and hawaii
@@apexhunter935 Remember, this was after Carl and NB visited Hawaii and Alaska
as a missourian, it is interesting seeing him go to the South Belt gamestop, i have been there a few times, any other people who live in/near st joseph?
Knowing that he went to my local mall's Gamestop (the Hawaii one) is particularly surreal, especially since I hang out there quite often. It's crazy to see him talk about the fact that there is kinda a Toys R Us in Macy's like it's foreign.
i loved the Asian massage parlor there in that mall, they go the extra island
Eh, it's not like you'd live anywhere other than Honolulu, And it's not like Nathaniel would go anywhere in Hawaii other than Honolulu!
Hawaii gotta represent!!!
@@jennifermorrey7378if I knew he was there, I would’ve love to meet him in person and tell him how much I love his ranking videos.
Yoo
this needs way more views👌🏽Awsome video!
Watching NB and his friends go insane is just oddly feel-good
Nathaniel is single-handedly keeping Gamestop alive.
He is now under murder threat from Rich of ReviewTechUSA
@@somebodyoncerolledme7211what?
@@LoginJ It was a joke given than Rich is constantly predicting Gamestop's demise and hates anything that keeps them going
include canada pls
Unlikely. He bought cards, which GameStop receives very little profit on if any due to volume and time it takes to sell them. Most of their profit comes from pre owned.
knowing that nathan was in the same state as me, even for just a few hours is truly terrifying.
bro fr
for me he was 10 mins away LOL
He was 2.5 hours away from me in minnesota💀
He literally went to my local store 💀
I SAW HIM WALK INTO THE MICHIGAN GAMESTOP
Out of anywhere in Vermont you just so happened to go to my hometown one! I rarely see KZheadrs showing off our gorgeous state so I appreciate the effort you took to drive there. And yes, usually you end up going out of the state to get back in, just apparently is always faster.
Out of anywhere in missouri he went to one of my hometown ones (there is another gamestop on the other side of my hometown)
23:13 "Okay, so 2 Horrible things happened. 1. There is a lot of snow outside. And 2. I shaved." ok
I didn't know horrible was a noun
@@zaneheaston8254 thanks for addressing that. it's not a noun, but i was probably really tired when i typed that just like i am rn.
I was looking for this comment. Funniest bit in the video! 😂🧔🏼♂️🪒👱🏻♂️
Fun fact: The Gamestop you visited in Maine was my old store. I was there for six years and was originally hired as part of the grand opening crew. I had to transfer to a New Hampshire store about eight months ago (funny enough, I'm in the next town over from the NH store you visited!) and I've missed the old place a lot. Firstly, thanks for affording me a chance to see the place again. Glad to see that the new manager is keeping it in good shape. Secondly, I appreciate the kind words about it. There's a lot of me in that store and even though I don't run it anymore, I still take pride in its accomplishments.
Which store in NH was he in?? I live in NH and been trying to figure it out for hours now 😂😂
@@xMrTreeMysterx That was Rochester.
What store in Maine was it?
@@RoachForce141 Biddeford.
@@bsmoove57453 Thank you! The map they used in the video made it seem like they went all the way up to Houlton, but I couldn't recall there being a GameStop in that area.
This is like Eddy Burback and Ted Nivison going to all the Rainforest Cafes. Appreciate the dedication man!
Precisely what i was thinking, especially when it showed the Rainforest Cafe inside Mall of America.
I literally thought this video was inspired by that
@@boogiedaddy3434 ikr
That’s what it reminded me of 😂 another level of unhinged and irrational decisions

That was an amazing intro
And an amazing outro
I'm someone from Alaska and I was excited that you went to the Diamond Center Mall. My only regret was that I could've gotten to meet you there. But, I'm just glad you got to see Alaska's beautiful mountains
26:07 that's plainrock's gamestop in flagstaff. I can tell because it shows where he went for a few releases
30:17 I’m shocked as to how they managed to go to a GameStop that is mere minutes from where I live
19:20 Desert Bus vibes
Desert bus is an awesome game, you should make a video of playing it. I know you did it In Mario Kart Wii, but the original game takes a lot longer to go through im pretty sure.
Hi Troy!
Hi
Wow, TWD98 replied!
Yo
HOLY BALLS NO WAY ONE OF MY FAVORITE KZheadRS WAS AT MY IRRELEVANT NEBRASKA TOWN. YOU JUST MADE MY GAME STOP 1000x MORE SPECIAL. THANK YOU SO MUCH NATHANIEL🙏
What town in Nebraska
@@lilyyoung1002 columbus
HOLY BALLS HE WAS AT MY LOCAL GAMESTOP IN MISSOURI (the one in st joseph, at least that town has some relevancy)
Ahh so cool man! Crazy that you stopped at the Beloit GameStop in Wisconsin. I worked there back in 2015 - 2017 while in college. Amazing time with great people.
I'm from Alaska and I live right next to the Diamond Mall! This is so awesome to see! Thanks for actually coming up here!
Only Nathaniel and the gang would spend a whole month going to 50 different gamestops
I would do that to but to many travels for me 😊
Mr beast never do that...... Yet
Glad to hear Carl is feeling better. Also, props for sticking through this GameStop adventure all the way through. It was quite the endeavor to see your long drive.
I think this is genuinely my favorite video I've ever seen
That opening screen... the... splotchy, smudgy, look had me freaking out for a minute thinking my monitor was cover in trash. 0:16
Nathaniel Bandy deserves an Oscar Award for the biggest GameStop fan. Edit: Wow 100 likes already
He even bought a shirt
maybe he does👍
fr
Did you hear about Ted Nevison and Eddy Burback who went to every rainforest cafe in the US? Cuz by this logic they also deserve a best fan award.
@@Sushiwolves dang thats crazy
Honestly he’s such a good friend for explaining to us exactly what was wrong with his friends ear
Ain't you Nathaniel B
I grew up in Alaska and was so happy to see the mall I frequented countless times. It's nice knowing that skating rink is still there.
Nathaniel Bandy is slowly becoming the Mr Beast of Nintendo
How can you not love this guy? He’ll do anything and succeed at it. You’re the best NB 😁❤️
3ds pfp. nice
@@pixeman agreed
27:42 “Double cheeked up on a Tuesday afternoon “
awesome video, quite a long and insane journey to get to every GameStop.
Y’all came to my store! Thank you for being respectful and not recording staff! You went in the wrong entrance! 😅 (Iowa) Hope you guys had a positive experience!
Fellow Iowan!! Hello!!
Mason City Ia?
Sorry I'm late. Is this the Iowa Meet-Up section?
@@Leamax33 I suppose so, by pure accident I'm finding my people
Anyone else in my area? I'm about 2 hours west of des moines
I don’t go to GameStop often anymore as I did, but it sure sounds insane that our man Bandy visited the same store (in different states) 50 times. Praise to Carl for feeling better after his ear situation.
I’m am overjoyed you went to my GameStop location in Billings Montana, just the thought of one of my favorite KZheadrs visiting my location can make me die happy
You just earned a new subscriber! Also i want that choose one game bundle card
Now Bathaniel needs to do an “EB Games” in every Canadian province.
That would be BRUTAL
It has been renamed to GameStop in Canada
EB games is Australian, not Canadian.
@@Wakapat_YT was also Canadian, but recently rebranded to GameStop.
@@Mrchair734 he can come to the land down unda then
Having grown up in Eastern North Dakota, it's funny to hear how people explain driving through the Great Plains for the first time. There's something about the several hours of straight highway with no stops until you hit the next city because it's just farmland and small towns with one gas station and a bar as the only places to go to. The fact you can always see several miles ahead of you at all times unhindered is magical. Those drives will either make you go crazy or you'll genuinely enjoy every step of the way despite looking at basically nothing.
As a North Dakotan as well, this is accurate.
I remember going to The Badlands in SD on a family trip. My parents thought the city (Rapid City or Sioux Falls?) was pretty close (pre-GPS when people used actual atlases and road signs) because they could actually see the lights. They were wrong. Being that far from civilization is oppressive to me, and I live in North Florida where the highways are surrounded by a billion pine trees on either side. I'm pretty sure I went to the Gamestop in FL where the uploader went.
As a New Jersan/ New Yorker that sounds like the latter
i’d love to live in eastern nd, i live in central florida and while the weather is nice… there’s just TOO much going on
I would enjoy that, but only as a once in a lifetime experience, with 100 hours of quality music on my stereo and no worries about a destination, just cruising along where the road goes. If I had to drive in that area every week for work, I would hate it within a month
The game stops that look different on the outside have to meet whatever local codes they have for the area. I especially like seeing gas stations get forced to comply, makes for a much more unique neighborhood.
33:51 Someone probably stole it.
27:45 wait a goddamn minute THATS MY HOME STORE. I WORK AT THAT ONE. AGHHHHHH
Noice
These guys went to every state to one GameStop per state. That’s some hard work. They deserve respect.
Especially for Carl man, Carl really took a big Al during this trip, manga minor tear in his eardrum, which there an allow him to fly until is your got better, talk about that look from there
Agreed!
@@Neasyorc sir doesn’t really matter the date. This isn’t an original idea
This is still one of my favorite videos on KZhead. Mixing travel and gaming. Genius
20:37 right as i seen the parking lot, i immediately recognized that one.
Is this springfield?
I hope I have the same level of friendship that Carl and Nathaniel have with my own friend in the future. It was a great video with so much dedication put into it.
Do I stand alone in believing Nathaniel Bandy should be included in the Guinness Book of World Records for visiting every GameStop within the United States?
yes you do because he didn't he just went to one in each state, not every one of them
@@clocknerd9930 True
Actually, to me it seemed as though he only went to one, each state?
Even the abandoned one in Tennessee!
24:39 thats ironic
27:15 honestly don't understand why they keep boxes of games that are OUT OF STOCK on display, had that happen to me with a gamestop and the danganronpa collection....
As someone who works at GameStop as one of the employees there, where I live very close by at, I’m surprised that you traveled all over the country, going to every GameStop you visited! That’s mad talent, my guy! You could’ve visited and went to the one that I work at in Hixson, Chattanooga Tennessee. I’m neither disappointed nor am I surprised that you didn’t go to that one, but maybe you could visit us one day! 🤣
I’m sorry for Carl not only do I hope he feels better but that he’s completely healed and not have any issues
I was thinking to myself “Imagine he goes to that one in the mall” and then you mentioned the ice skating rink and I had to re-watch that clip like 5 times before realizing it’s the mall
17:45 I've actually been to that plaza a good couple times, Legends Outlets, and it's basically just a mall outdoors. Still a really swank place.
21:26 there goes the Mr. Beast collab
Lol
The dedication for this video is awesome and I’m glad you guys did it I hope you guys enjoyed it and I can’t wait to see what’s next. Keep up the amazing work
Wow this was very fun to watch. I wanna road trip and do something like this now 😂
9:29 Sweet. I wish I knew where that "massive mall" was but it looks pretty cool
“Add the stroke!” -Nathaniel Bandy, 31:29
Tru he did say that
Great video! Kudos to everyone involved for sticking out the journey. I know this was exhausting 😭
The Ocarina of Time Mask Shop Music is so beautiful! 🤩
I am impressed you went to the Gamestop at the Flagstaff mall. I give ya props for that
I love the insane stuff Nathaniel is doing on his channel recently
yes he has done lots of cool and wacky things over the years
This really shows that Bathaniel is friends with boulders by putting party hats on the boulders
And living with them too….
This is your best video by FAR!!
oh man the spyro 1 dark hallow music at 11:50 got me feeling so nostalgic
As someone who loved Ted Nivison's video on visiting every Rainforest Cafe and has never been to America, this was a fantastic road trip video! Ohio was crazy, and it was cool seeing some of the less popular states like Montana and Wyoming
Speaking of Ohio, he probably went to the worst Ohio game stop possible
Seriously though, MAJOR respect to Nathaniel for actually doing this. This probably took TONS of dedication to do. Congrats on completing this, man
Id love to see a video like this for retro game stores, see what weird stuff you can find
this deserves millions of views
Shoutout Nathaniel for living in Virginia. As a native, it helped me relate to this journey far more than I would have otherwise. It was a genuine relief seeing a familiar environment at the end
21:14 Nah. It describes more of a room full of 1-2 Switch Fans.
I’m a West Virginia native in the Jackson county area, been watching your channel for a few months and never new you’re from around here so cool 😊
