These documentaries are easily "TV Quality" and possibly better than any other video game channels I've seen! Thank you!

f.k.b.

Honestly I can't recommend this channel enough. Thank you for your hard work in making these beautifully detailed documentaries. I've never seen such a "TV Network Ready" game documentary on YouTube. I'm in awe of your awesome

I love how you went though the effort if creating a model for the prototype SNES controller for the single shot where it was needed. That's insane attention to detail. Good job!

Great way to follow up Gaming Historian's doc on SMB3.

The visual aesthetic of these videos is truly unlike ANYTHING else on Youtube. You put so much attention to detail in making these absolutely gorgeous visuals that mimic the beautiful style of Nintendo. Pure, 100%, nostalgic bliss on full display. Your visuals and production puts me RIGHT back into the 90's, in which these games were made, and puts me right back in the mental headspace I was in when I first saw these games. Your visuals capture how my imagination saw these games. I love it to the point of tears.

What's crazy is that just like Mario devs, final fantasy composer, Nobue Uematsu, didn't even learn music but just played with it. Now he's the Mozart of video games.

A part of me wishes I could be a young programmer during the early nineties. That's when making video games was extremely exciting. Just look at the burst of classics that came out even in 1989. Must have been exciting. Love the video, by the way.

That smooth jazz remix at the end was the cherry on the sundae.

These days, of all the drama channels, fake news, "top 10 things you should do with your life", stale let's plays left over and abandoned channels, this is one of the few pieces of content I still enjoy on YouTube. Documentaries and making of videos of my favorite videogames and cartoons growing up. Learn how the magic is made and perhaps someone in the audience will be able to step up and replicate why we loved these games so much.

One thing I will never forget is be the first time I ever saw SMW. I thought the item box was the coolest thing in the world. And likewise, I'll never forget the first time seeing Mario 64 at a Walmart and playing it. After that, I came in that store every damn day and played that thing as much as I could. Me and every other kid in a 10 mile radius. Thankfully I didn't have to wait long to get my own. No longer was I relegated to simply walking left to right to play a level from start to finish, maybe coming across a little nook or cranny hidden somewhere. I could explore whole WORLDS. And not like in Legend of Zelda for NES, but sooo much more immersive and all encompassing. I'll never forget that sense of awe and wonder that came with that exploration. Not just Mario 64, but all of the 1st gen 3d games.

I still come across games that give me that feeling from time to time. Breath of the Wild was a huge one. Or GTA V, or really any of the GTA games since Vice City (never got into GTA 3). But it's nice that even though I no longer enjoy movies or shows or music, I still have something which brings me joy. Mario Odyssey's another off the top of my head. Which says a lot because I even have a hard time finding games I like anymore. At least new games. And they're almost always from franchises I know I like, like Zelda, Mario or Metroid.

The only exception being indie games. I rarely come across indie games I don't like and I've spent in excess of $1500 on indie games in the last year. But again, I stick mostly to one relatively new genre called zach-likes. Which are games where you solve puzzles by programming. Very fun stuff. If you're into programming or computer science. Very nerdy. It's named for the company Zachtronics, which originally started the genre with games like TIS-100, Astra-256, Shenzhen I/O, and ExaPunks. But I digress.

Yoshi's island is such a gem. One of the best artistic directions ever.

Thanks so much for making this! Would love to see you take on Super Mario RPG!

I was planning on watching the first minute then running an errand to finish it later, but your videos always draw me in so I ended up watching the whole thing in one go forgetting what I had to do. Can't emphasize enough how much I love the way you blend knowledge and entertainment so seamlessly. Amazing work as always!

Already smashed that like button before it hit 5 seconds.
Already know it was professionally and well made.

Looking at this game 26 years later still just blows me away by how good it looks. The games backgrounds are still some of the most beautiful of any game I’ve ever seen. Even the new Yoshi games don’t capture that same beauty
