Well, Jirard just dun goofed.
Heh, this topic showed me how out of touch I am with the YouTube crowd, 'cause I don't know who the frag most of these blokes are. I do know about Scott The Woz and Caddicarus but I've never given them a fair shake other than watching a vid or two once.

I've liked this dude since stumbling across his channel many moons ago. Just straight-to-the-point video games, no pretentiousness, no BS.
I guess while I'm here, I might as well recommend Nick Robinson; he does documentary-style videos that cover a hodgepodge of topics, mostly relating to video games, that are quite entertaining. Some examples include: Can we rescue a deleted Pokémon - 15 years after its death?; Mission in Snowdriftland: Nintendo's forgotten Flash game; The Smash Bros Direct that Nintendo censored in America; the classic, The 10-Year Hunt for the Lost McDonald's DS Game; and of course, The Problem with Luigi's Mouth.
I've also watched this guy on occasion.

Yeah I'm waiting to see more on how that all shakes out for Jirard as it really sucks to see for someone I've been following for like a decade.

His world got shooken for sure. Pure scoundrel.
Anywho, I just came across Manley Reviews. The dude's quite simpatico, and his videos are highly entertaining and boast high-quality values.

I don't know the how or the why; heck, I don't even remember when, but I found this gentleman, a rather nice old chap who not only collects comicbooks and movies and has a really good taste in books, but also happens to be a gamer, an avowed Destiny fan. I know it doesn't necessarily fit this topic, but overall, it's quite relatable, and I genuinely had fun watching his videos and thought linking to his channel would maybe put a smile on someone.

If you’re into deep-dive retrospectives, I’d recommend Digital Foundry Retro. They don’t do humor all that much, but their technical breakdowns of classic games are seriously impressive. Another good one is Kim Justice. Her long-form videos on old British computers and obscure console history are always interesting.
On a side note, if you ever deal with weird or old game audio formats, you might find this SND converter useful. It helps with converting those files to MP3 or WAV without the hassle. You can check on https://www.movavi.com/audio-converter/snd-converter.html
