Would I have to get an associate to unlock each video game cabinet or are they open already?
Same with everything else big. You’re pulling the ticket for it

Did they sell the old systems back in the day?
Any type of action figure like star Wars or gi Joe and never open them would be worth something.
Other thing might be Pokemon cards, not sure if that's big still.

Grab every single console and game I could for two minutes. LEGO’s next, as many as I could

There were no video game cabinets back then. You’d get a card from behind the display and bring it to the front where they’d grab it out of the big magical video game room

You strategize. Identify the items that are small, easily carried, and have the highest resale value. Essentially, you want to rank the highest resale dollar per cubic inch. You want to commit the first ten or twenty items on that list to memory and you want to clean the store out of those items.
Then, you come back later and buy what you really want with the cash you got and pocket the rest.
Granted, this was harder back then because there was no ebay.
It's what I'd do today, though.

‘86 Fleer basketball Wax boxes. I vividly remember stacks of them
If you know.. you know...
I cringe to this day thinking about my 6 year old self laughing at them and going for the 86 baseball instead

The GI Joe USS Flagg!
And all the transformers I could get.
I’m 42 and I still want that aircraft carrier.

I mean that’s the big no one ever remembers.
Toys r us had a ticket based system all the way up to Super Nintendo times.

Lmao
I was born in 85 so I grew up in the NES through N64/PS1 heyday and I still couldn’t remember those details

Thought about this a lot.
At that time, Gebesis games and Ninja Turtles were our objective. Maybe bikes too. They used to have Dynos.

I would have loaded up on Barbie dolls and traded them for handjobs behind the monkey bars.

Oh yeah. Pretty sure you could even get a Commodore 64 with a bunch of games and hardware and whatnot.
