Whilst you may not have heard of the Gold and Silver pawn shop in Las Vegas, you have undoubtedly heard of the reality TV show Pawn Stars. Before you get your mind in the gutter I am talking about the actual pawn shop owned by Rick Harrison, his old Man, his son Corey and family friend Chumlee. The show Pawn Stars debuted on July 26, 2009 and has since become one of the most successful reality TV show’s ever made! Check out the full video at the bottom of this post! You never know what will come through those doors, especially being located in Las Vegas (usually known for it’s Online Casinos and grand physical casino’s) and open 24 hours a day! But for today we are going to bypass the classic old guns, the gold bars and the fake Rolex’s that usually appear in the show and take a look at some of the awesome video game related stuff the store has seen in the last 8 or so years. So without further ado, sit back, relax, smash that thumbs up button and Letsa go as we explore 11 times Video Games featured on Pawn stars! Pawn Stars Nintendo Game  Watch Collection (Season 5)  History Before there were Game Boy’s there was the game and watch! This lady came into the store with a handful of classic Nintendo Game and Watch’s including the infamous Donkey Kong 2 game and also the classic Mickey Mouse game, both of which are really collectable now-a-days. Corey goes onto explain that Nintendo made their money to fund the NES by making and selling things like the Game and Watch series, which is pretty cool when you think about it. After some back and forth with Chumlee and Corey, the seller eventually gets $250 for the package of game and watches and the pawn shop gets a great score. Pawn Stars Elton John Captain Fantastic Pinball Machine (Season 14)  History Hold me closer tiny dancer…Did you know that back in the day there was actually an Elton John pinball machine? I didn’t either but apparently they were a thing! This Captain Fantastic Pinball Machine made it’s way onto the show in Season 14 after the owner ran out of space in his home. The seller was asking for $4500 because of it’s condition, however it was then valued at $2500 by one of Rick’s experts. In token bartering fashion, the pawn star’s owner offered $1800 which was countered by the seller’s lowest point of $3000. A deal couldn’t be struck because the margins just weren’t there for Rick. Pawn Stars 1980s Japanese Arcade Games (Season 4)  History Back in the 80’s the world couldn’t get enough of arcade machines. We are talking before everyone had their own consoles in their homes, Netflix on TV or even computers to play games. So what else are you going to do but head down to the local arcade for your video game fix? Season 4 of Pawn stars saw this awesome collection of 1980’s Japanese Arcade games come into the shop for sale. Super Dodge Ball, Dig Dug and Yie-ar kung fu were the titles and the seller was originally asking for $1500 for each one, totalling $4500. After some heavy negotiation however, the crew of Pawn Stars were able to get all 3 for an amazing price of $600. Pat The NES Punk on Pawn Stars Some of you may already know of Pat the NES punk from youtube! He is mainly known for his podcast on video games, his visits to flea markets and his massive collection of games! In this short clip we can see Pat trying to sell his 2 copies of the Nintendo championship game cartridge, one in classic grey as well as the shiny gold version. Unfortunately the clip cuts off before showing if the deal is done or not, with Pat asking for $35k for the games, however Pat does appear later with these cartridges in an AVGN video so it’s a pretty safe bet that he either didn’t sell them or he later purchased them back. Pawn Stars A Working Commodore 64 (Season 14)  History Ah the good old Commodore 64, it had to make this list. In season 14 of Pawn Stars a working Commodore 64 was brought into the shop. The C64 as it is sometimes known was released back in January 1982 and has even been listed in the Guinness World Records as the highest-selling single computer model of all time, with sales estimates between 10 and 17 million units. The seller initially asks for $250, Rick counters with $100, a little bit of haggling ensures and in the end a deal is made for $150. Pawn Stars Evel Knievel Pinball Machine (Season 4)  History Some of you might be familiar with the original Jump Man known as Evel Knievel! For those that don’t know him he was essentially a stunt man known for jumping his motorbike over insane distances and obstacles. Well, somehow his fame led to the creation of this Evel Knievel Pinball machine which featured in season 4 of the show. The machine came in with a little bit of damage, however the original artwork and board was in good shape. The seller initially asks for $3000, however Corey figures this would be the price for it if it was completely restored. The pair eventually come to the figure of $1200 which leaves everyone happy and the deal is done. Unfortunately for Corey, when he looks to have it restored he finds out that once the work is done the machine would only be worth $800 or $900! The repair ends up costing $340 and with a bit more research Corey finds out that the machine is actually worth around $1200 to $1540! Not bad in the end.
