I found a very unique retro game youtube channel and wanted to share.

He does what he calls "Visual Reviews" where he talks about the visual appeal of retro game boxes and cartridges. It struck me as a very odd but very original idea for a channel. https://www.youtube.com/user/JcaliforniaJ

Tell your mom about this for instance

Shilling your own channel should be a ban...

>>3063830

Not interested in youtube videos since I have high IQ, and people in those videos nearly always speak too slowly or make lots irrelevant chatter like "hey guys remember to subscribe" which causes me to close the window and read instead.

However, box art is in fact really important, and people miss out of the importance of it. I have always believed that eventually emulators will incorporate them. But ultimately VR is going to have 90s living rooms, with virtual 3d boxes which can be rotated and manipulated, and we'll get to directly see and hear the experience of inserting the cartridge into the console.

This, a thousand times. Not sure if it's linked to IQ, but I wouldn't be surprised. My favorite way of getting news and info is just to read it. Can't stand listening to people try and make a presentation out of it.

I honestly think N64 had the ugliest boxes around.

You'd think he'd have copies of these boxes that weren't all beat up and shit
>>
>>3064131
I rather like how the N64 had the multi-color aesthetic (red, blue, green, yellow, grey, black) and used it for many aspects of the system. You'll find it used on all the sides of the game box, the console's box, the controllers as well as the boxes controllers came in, and other accessories too.

The visible physical side of /vr/ gear is a very legitimate topic to appreciate, in fact, it can be something very interesting to focus on:

Speak for yourself, maybe we'd want 90's living rooms, maybe we'd want 00's living rooms, hand in hand when those games were most accessible, maybe we'd want 80's living rooms, maybe earlier, from when entertainment genres closely tied to many games were in their heyday?

Quick question:

Without checking, by your own memory only,

which Mario Party had the box cover with Mario in the Cowboy Hat, and which one had the game die with the number on it?

I dont get people that post youtube channels here.

Even if it wasnt shilling, I would never want to put a decent channel in the sights of 4chan.

Mario party 1 (I think the die said 3 which confused people)

Besides being a youtuber should be a hobby, people making money off of that shit is kinda dumb. They don't contribute shit.

people who are popular on youtube started out because it was "fun" and then they got big and they did it full time.
