They just go by year Im guessing. Its 2017 now, so 21 years ago was 1996.

Nonetheless a clickbait title that suggested the Switch has the smallest launch line-up ever when that is not the case. Perhaps since the title suggests 'ever' but not the actual video it managed to get away with some things. But my main point remains, its another money grabbing clickbait Nintendo Switch video.

It takes alot to get noticed on Youtube. Tough competition. Even Pewdiepie is still using major clickbait titles.

As popular as he is, I don't think you should set yourself to be like him. If you're in for the money, sure. If you want to simply make a good channel, he's the last person you should seek

Just watched the video and saw nothing wrong with it. One of the announcers was even an obvious Nintendo fan who called the Game Cube "fucking awesome". As for the title, "weakest launch ever" has a question mark behind it, it's not a statement.

Also, if you don't like the video, why are you advertising for it?

Im not subbed to him or anything, but I dont see the problem with him. He just makes videos he wants to make. He doesnt take himself very seriously and does alot for charity.

So you're so angry about these clickbait videos.. that you link to the video and create a thread for people to watch it?
So your anger.. gives them more views, attention and money.

Didn't exactly think this out did you.

Well bad reception causes a better long term impact.

Also come on, I doubt this thread is going to make much of a difference on how many views they get, they'll make just as much money regardless whether I made this thread or not, I'm not that petty to refuse to call on something over that.
