So I did a thing...

[bikingjahuty]

I said I was going to do it for years and I finally decided to actually do it.


I created a dedicated gaming youtube channel and I posted my first youtube video. It's a top 5 list of my favorite video game magazines from back in the day. Beyond being my first video and the result of a lot of trial and error in making it, I'm overall very happy with the quality of it. It was as much a learning experience for me in video editing and audio recording as it was my desire to make a video I really wanted to make. I'll be doing more videos with actual captured footage in the future, but am currently building a new PC for this job. Beyond lists I also want to do reviews on games as well, but I'll still post about them in the 52-games thread too :p


Hope you guys enjoy the video, let me know what you think of it, and if you're so inclined, subscribe to your fellow VGcollect member

PS. In case anyone was wondering about the name, it was a nickname given to me in high school by a punk rocker kid I used to hang out with. He called me that because of my ability to sound just like Wigglytuff despite my otherwise deep voice. He started calling me that, a few of our other friends called me it too, and the name sort of stuck in that circle of friends. I can't do the voice as well as I used to, but hey, there's your riveting backstory

Yeah it is! I probably put at least 15-hours into making that video, and there were several nights where I started working in it around 7pm, literally never looked at the clock once and then it was some midnight. Have the script ready for video #2 and going to get cracking on this today. Hopefully I'll have them up by next weekend

I'm a magazine collector too, and have some Nintendo Power and others american and UK issues, but, being a brazilian logically my collection is focused on the magazines released in my country.

Recently i made a instagram, to post some of my book, magazine and game collections, and other things, it's a fun thing to do in quarantine.

Thank you so much! Yeah there are some excellent international magazines as well. Obviously at the time I never saw them in stores, but I've bought some over the years off ebay and they're fun to look at even if I don't know what is being said in them most of the time :p


I bet you guys had a ton of Sega magazines in Brazil given how dominant the Master System and Mega Drive were down there.

Subbed! Love the icon by the way

Subbed. There are times where I click on videos but dont make it all the way through cuz its not engaging enough however this was and kept me guessing when I saw that Nintendo Power was number 2 only to be reminded of Gamepro. I miss them.

I'm glad you liked it. I used to be fairly artistic when I was younger, but my skills are more than a bit rusty. I've never dabbled in digital art, so it was scanning in my drawing the old fashioned way :p

Wow! I really appreciate the compliment! That was how i'd intended it, although it really worked out with me liking a magazine more than Nintendo Power.
