DKOldies' recent upload fulfilled a request from a massive American rapper who requested that his order be filmed by the company. This order is from Lil Yachty, who went to the comments section in a previous video and gave his order number for a feature.
The company happily made a video for Lil Yachty's order, focusing on a massive collection of retro games for five different consoles.
One of the most iconic titles here is "Donkey Kong Country" in immaculate condition, with the game and its manual in a brand new state.
Other titles include "Halo," "NBA JAM," "Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2," "Marvel vs Capcom 2," "Mortal Kombat," "Spider-Man," "Star Wars: Battlefront 2," "SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom," "Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2," and more.
Yachty purchased games for five consoles including the Xbox, PlayStation 1, SEGA Genesis, SEGA Dreamcast, and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES).
With this massive purchase, DKOldies also threw in "Sonic Adventures" for the SEGA All-Stars console for free.

DKOldies is a famous online store for retro games, and the company offers its content on its online platforms like Instagram to show the process of receiving orders and showing off its quality games.

Retro Gaming in the Modern Times
Whether people argue that 8-bit or 16-bit titles are outdated, there are still enthusiasts, collectors, and avid gaming fans that want to get a hold of these titles.
Even Nintendo and Game Freak's "Pokemon FireRed Version" sold for several thousands of dollars in an auction for a sealed, pristine condition copy of the game.
Back in 2019, one of the most sought-after retro games in the market went up for sale, and this is the famous Nintendo franchise, with a vintage cartridge of "The Legend of Zelda." The original game sold for a record-breaking $870,000, with the item being a sealed copy of the first-edition release for the American region's NES console.
People who kept their games from the past are reaping the rewards now, especially as most of the past titles are considered vintage, especially for the massive franchises in the world.
DKOldies surely is a trusted retro store that already saw massive recognition before, now fulfilling an order for Lil Yachty, with the rapper satisfied with his retro games this holiday.
