The Ultimate Smash Brothers Collectable Prank Messing with Retro Games Store Owner

In this video, we play a prank on local retro shop owner Adrian from Live Action Games with one of his most prized possessions while he's out of the country.

Friends can be a mixed bag, some will support you, others will point out every flaw you have. Even more, some will do dastardly things while you are unavailable, and guys tend to be pretty savage to their other guy friends. Well, our local shop owner Adrian and his girlfriend Kristen, they left to go out of the country to visit Austrailia and Adrian's family and then to Japan to visit Akihabara.

While Adrian was gone I told him I was going to stop by occasionally to keep an eye on the shop for him. Being gone a month, as a small business owner, that can be stressful. But one of the other reasons why I wanted to stop by occasionally was I wanted to mess with him. Severely.

Adrain has this awesome looking oversized collectible box from the Gamecube version of Super Smash Bros. I know how he got it, what he went through to restore it since some jerk face cats decided to pee all over it. He LOVES this thing! Which meant it was my immediate target!

Originally I was going to take the box with me and take it to my work to hide. The more I thought about it I really didn't feel comfortable removing it from the store. Like I know how much he loves this box, I would have felt horrible if something would have happened to it. Talking to the guys watching the store, we were trying to figure out where to hide the box INSIDE the store. Then the idea hit me.

Adrain has a PS3 kiosk that he has an SNES Classic installed in. Looking at it, it looked like it just might fit the box. We slid the slot wall up and BAM, it was like it was made to fit this box. We hid the box inside the kiosk and sealed it up. Now, I actually started feeling guilty doing this and was going ot back out of doing this, but the boys thought it was hilarious and wouldn't let me back out of it.

Friday night I received a tweet from Adrian - I WIll Shiv You in the Kidneys!

Oh no.

I went to the store Saturday, but before I did I went to get a peace offering in donuts and chicken nuggets. When I opened up the door to the shop, I heard 2 words - "F-OFF!". And then some laughing, so I knew it was ok.

In the end, Adrian had a great trip, the store was still standing, Kristen said YES to his proposal to marry him, and he brought back some cool stuff. I had asked him to keep an eye out for Doki Doki Panic, a Famicom Disc System, Famicom Classic and Super Famicom Classic. Well, we struck out on the Famicom Disc System and the Doki Doki Panic, however he did snag both of the MIni Famicom systems for me. Make sure to check out the unboxing videos on the channel, coming soon.
