Chasing Nostalgia is a show that follows Ralph (Retro Ralph on YouTube) on a journey around the country as he checks out the coolest and most unique arcade collections and retro memorabilia. Ralph will do anything to preserve the memories of putting quarters on the glass, and is on a mission to rebuild the retro-gaming future.
