Bunch of autists who rely on clickbait and rushing to upload trailers before Nintendo. Their 8-12 year old Nintendo fanbase think they are credible in any way.

They have no credibility and are considered a joke.

Great reviews.

Nah I know them from the Smash 4 analysis vids but besides that they're a total joke, especiall their reviews.
Stereotypical Gamexplain review: I give this game a smiley face, even though it sucked balls because we need more viewers and we cant allow to break down a game which we have talked about for months now.
>>
>>341250967
Dont forget they're huge beta cucks that cant get enough of cramming their liberal views on to every single Nintendo game.

It's youtube. You have to have that mentality or persona to get the views and money. It's the logical thing to do if you considered thats what you wanna do. It attracts those archetypes. Is it good/bad? .

I used to like them, but now I really hate them. They sold out big time, they make shitty click-bait "discussions" over every single thing, literally an hour after it happens. And they post final bosses and credits before a game is released.

Their only single redeeming factor is trailer analyses. And even those are mostly pointless and full of speculation.

You guys are joking right? How in detail can you be about link climbing a mountain?

Yeah it's a discussion even, not just one guy giving theories. I can tell if that's better or worse at this point.
>>

How do they get so much stuff to show?

Does Nintendo actually send them stuff?
>>
>>341253680
It's so surprising given all the EXCITING new Nintendoâ„¢ content coming out that they need to cover as well!
>>
>>341253680
I haven't watched but I assume they wonder if the Bridge is Eldin bridge, what those towers do, if the lake is Hylia, if you can climb stuff and what significance the shit in e background has.

Or they could just wait till the game is out...

His top of the years are reliable, his reviews tend to have valid reasons for the points other than "I like the gimmick" or "it's a good concept".

I trust him.
>>
>>341253417
Well they need those jucy klicks and Nintendo wasn't ecactly a swollen cow those past couple of month.

Just wait after Treehouse is over, Youtube will choke from bazillion videos "explaining" every blurry Zelda polygon.
>>
Remember when they released a shitload of -1min videos that one time?
Remember how they lost A LOT of subscribers over it?
Remember how GameXplain was clueless about why they lost so many?

They cut it out after a while, but still. Tells you on what kind of mentality they operate.

>>341253718
They are Nintendo partners. They get invited to shows and review copies. Other than that they reupload Nintendo's videos, their recordings of the Directs THEN then reupload trailers/footage they saved from Nintendo's channel, then last but not least rumors in particular by Emily Rogers.
>>
>>341253718
Nintendo gives them games to review, which they then pick apart piece by piece for as many videos as possible.

Then they'll make videos for every single leak under the sun, with lengthy discussions and fan-feedback discussions, no matter how obviously fake the leak might be.
>>
>>341254085
How many?
I'm going to unsub soon just due to the amount of stuff once Pokemon is out
>>
>>341253935
I'd like him and others a lot more if they'd stop inserting their faces into videos. No one came to see these goofballs' faces and yet they keep doing it.
>>
>>341254231
Can't remember, it was years ago. But significant enough to let them notice and us mention once in a while in these threads.
>>
>>341254151
I was surprised they didn't do videos on the whole MH 'rumor', not even a 'it's fake' video.
>>
>>341254231
At least they don't spoiler everything in their video thumbnail, like the two newly revealed pokemon yesterday, like other fuckers did.

pretty sure that dude with a lisp is a kike as well. all he plays is mario and zelda and uploads clickbait and already posted nintendo trailers for easy money.

He only does it for the top of the year afaik, the individual face reviews and analyses are without his face, which are the ones I watch.

Why does the red always have to bring politics to this shit. You can obviously tell they're libs by their mannerisms, but you are really reaching here.

For some reason it meant two genders

Oh god, the autism on GoNintendo over that was ridiculous. Even after revealing it to be old artwork, they still insisted it was a girl because of the eyebrows. One dude responded to every single comment with "but did you look at the eyebrows?!?!??!!?"

I do watch some of their stuff but I always have to take it with a grain of salt because they are massive shills for Nintendo. But Nintendo has gotten so bad this past year or so that even they've started giving up on them.

He doesn't do reviews anymore. He milks his drones on patreon for money and uploads videos of him reading a wikipedia summary of games in his shitty voice while saying memes and thanking patreon backers.

Speaking in all seriousness.... Mysoginists who think having a female Link is "controversial." Their analysis videos are in depth but their commentary feels like it is coming from 8 year olds.

>>341250802
None. I care a lot more about presentations of games than opinion pieces at this point. This is how I discover and decide on a game:
>see coverage of some new game
>look at metacritic scores
>seriously start considering whether it's something I'd be interested in playing, based on genre etc.
>consider how much I'd pay for it and stay tuned for a sale

"Revievers" only play a role as part of step 1.

>GameXplain
Literal Nintendo shills.
>>
The only objectively trustworthy review of a game is the opinion of /v/ taken at least a year after its release. No where else in the internet will anyone speak more openly and no company will sustain shilling for the game for a year after its release, outside of maybe mmo games.

If i have to buy a game before a yeaf passes, i wont read reviews and instead i will look up how the dev or publisher have performed in the past. If there is a demo i will try it, if there is no demo and i absolutely want it, i will pirate it and have a go. If all these fail, i will read the negative user comments to get an idea of how bad it could be before finally committing my money.
>>
All these replies and no christcenteredgamer mentioned. /v/, anon is disappointed.

>>341257212
Some still argue over whether HL and HL2 are good games, /v/ is a shitfest of a reviewer, what are you even
