I'm not a professional video editor, experienced voice actor, talented animator, inspired film maker, or any occupation of your average RUclips conglomerate.
Some call me Drew, Drewbert, Drewski, Drewbrewski, Drewsalem, and Mtn Drew. You can just call me Welbig since another guy took the name I wanted to go with.

How to Deal with Mr. X
As much as I'd love to do a dedicated review of Resident Evil 2, there's a bunch of those already so i'll probably wait. Till then I'd like to deep dive into Mr. X as he's such an infamous part of the Resident Evil 2 experience. I've been on both sides of the spectrum between those who love his constant harassments, and those who want nothing to do with him when he's around. As someone who generally DOESN'T like having him around, I've devised a mostly soundproof guide to make Mr. X as non threatening as possible. I hope to benefit those who want him to feel less like an actual obstacle, and more like brief encounters that are as brief as they can be.

Emulators Vs. Retroarch
Просмотров 82 тыс.Месяц назад
I try to go over the general experience of using unofficial emulators and their standalone software, compared to using Retroarch. Playing on unofficial emulators can be a daunting task for those who've never pursued it. Solutions for that demographic do exist such as Retroarch. Unfortunately while Retroarch is the most popular and known emulator hub, it's still not without issues that can make ...
Why I Bought the RetroTink4K
Просмотров 18 тыс.3 месяца назад
You may have heard of the RetroTink4K. Specifically regarding the outrageous price. For most, such a high entree fee would most certainly not be worth it. However I found extremely beneficial use with the Tink4K that makes it worth every penny. The CRT filters. With old CRT displays getting more challenging to find, and modern retro releases not including good CRT filters in most cases, the Tin...
Ode to the Octagonal Gate
Просмотров 10 тыс.4 месяца назад
I've been thinking about a small little aspect in gaming and that's the use of an octagonal gate on Nintendo's first few 3D consoles. It wasn't until the Wii U when they ditched the Octagonal Gate. Because of this the libraries for N64, GameCube, and Wii have frequently been challenging to enjoy with modern controllers simply because the octagonal gate is missing. May seem like a pointless issu...

A Totally Calm and Collected REACTION of the (6/18/2024) NINTENDO DIRECT
Просмотров 2 тыс.5 месяцев назад
So I managed to catch that new Nintendo Direct that aired earlier this morning. Always a good time to watch stuff live. Prepare to witness one of the very few times I legit lose my composure to an announcement. Usually I'm quite composed and stoic over hype related stuff. Anyhoos, just a fun lil reaction. Should hopefully have the next vid finished real soon.
Why I Don't Like *Most* HD Texture Packs
Просмотров 45 тыс.6 месяцев назад
I have been told many a times to simply just get a texture pack if I feel retro games at higher res provide less than desirable visuals. Unfortunately I find most texture packs from fans and devs, aren't quite the fix most would insist they are. I feel more comfortable playing retro games with their original visuals, displayed in an original format at lower resolutions. I understand this is a b...
Elden Ring: My First Impressions
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.7 месяцев назад
Only a never ending game like Elden Ring could ever call for first impressions only after beating the game. This gargantuan game was a predominant reason why uploads have slowed down a bit. It's not an exaggeration with just how huge and long this game is and even after finishing it there's still got to be 10s of 100s of hours of content for me to try. Either way, the game is done, and it is on...

*MAJOR SPOILERS* *VIEW AT YOUR OWN RISK* Out of all the different types of video game experiences, the one of the original Zelda has always fascinated me.

And this'll be the last video on this subject matter. Whew! This ...
Learning to LOVE The Legend of Zelda (NES)
Просмотров 9 тыс.8 месяцев назад
The Legend of Zelda is a game that I never had much interest in playing growing up, simply from the dated nature of it nowadays. However recently there's been a rekindled interest in really giving this game a chance, and the results were certainly interesting. Despite how aged this game may seem nowadays, I am now of the belief that this game is still just as playable as it was then and can be ...
Learning To LOVE Metroid (NES)
Просмотров 3,5 тыс.9 месяцев назад
Metroid is a well respected series with a first entrée that's not looked on fondly in today's age. I have my unique history with this game, resulting in enjoying it far more than I ever thought I would. I'm at a point now where I'll greatly defend this game and don't think it's as bad as many modern gamers would make it out to be. Sure it's old, but it's no less fun imho. Music Used: Kraid's La...
Consoles Vs. Emulators

Retro gaming is a lot more complicated now than simply picking up a retro console w/ games. So many options, so much to consider, countless pros and cons on both sides. I've been active on both sides of the console vs emulator debate and find that while each have their shortcomings, retro gamers have it better than ever before.

Why I Don't Like Twilight Princess HD
Просмотров 120 тыс.10 месяцев назад
Probably going to be my most divisive video, but one I wanted to make anyway. Twilight Princess is a game I hold pretty dear to me. The HD version for Wii U is a fine enough version. But as a person who really cares about the minor details that most don't notice, I ultimately feel disappointed with it, and find it a lesser way to play the game. A completely minority opinion to have to be sure, ...
NOW Dolphin Is The Best Emulator!!

Dolphin has been recently updated to allow for sharp pixel video output thanks to a new resampler setting. Needless to say it looks spectacular so I wanted to bring some attention to it. Apologizes for some of the compressed footage in certain footage and desktop capture. I get it may make direct comparisons harder to see. I'm hoping to be able to capture 4K video some time in the near future w...

RA is the best thing in Retro gaming ever. Just learn howto use a pc! 😂
The HD Version strips away the whole nostalgic part about this amazing game.
I'm an advanced user, complex solutions does not bother me and I thoroughly enjoy my RetroArch setup. To each their own. If you need simplicity, then go find a simple solution.
I’m going to be honest MR X was terrifying when I first played Resident Evil 2, I used a easy S rank strat to bypass mr x. That by playing the game on normal
I accidentally rewatch this every 3 months haha great video
Honestly, you just can't beat RetroArch. It's the be all end all for 2d emulation; if you're going into 3d, you're better off getting standalone emulators, merely from a performance perspective. Before that, though, RetroArch just offers a unified interface that allows you to configure all your retro systems more-or-less seamlessly. Universal controller mapping + short cuts for emulator options without ever touching a mouse and keyboard. And that's not even counting how easy ES-DE makes it (try reading the guide next time, it makes it a breeze), with preconfigured emulators, shaders, and overlays. Or, you could always buy a dedicated emulation handheld. For me, that's honestly the peak way to emulate games nowadays; there's something about having a dedicated system for retro games that just makes it feel special. Bonus points it looking like a tiny Game Boy.
Just got mines ordered ahh Man being single isn't too bad!
I just want to play Switch 2D games with CRT shader options. Because I can't stand all those so called 'Pixel Art' crap that is another term of 'I am a lazy developer, and this is a new good thing' bullshit.
What's up with that awful sounding background noise?
Retroarch truly is a brainlet filter
2:05 absolutely. My favorite and most impressionable one is Twilight Princess. Also my favorite art style, music and characters lol
Jack of all trades, master of none, but better than a master of one.
1:17 stopped watching after this
RetroArch is working on switch without a need to change to android so Im cool with that
that's great
these things are getting More And More Stupider ,700 bucks wtf...Basement,Get Old Tv And Call It A day
The old copies you see on eBay are USELESS NOW! It’s emulation from here on boys! Throw away your old copies and EMULATE THE GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!! *YOU SHOULD EMULATE!!!!!!!!! ITS WORTH IT!!!!!!!!!!! QUIT LIVING IN THE FUCKING PAST YOU IDIOTS!!!!!!!!*
Piracy and emulation helps preserve retro games. Those old copies of retro games that are being sold on eBay are NOT Preservation because those copies are being rotted away from the INSANE prices they are being listed and sold for.
🤝option labyrinth enjoyers
Yess🤝 I mean I've memorised it so not really a labyrinth now
The "washed out" and "hazy" parts of the older versions actually enhanced the game. The side by sides you show just emphasize that - the newer textures being higher definition and more color saturated just kind of takes away from the almost watercolor-esque style. It felt like pictures from a storybook. Obviously I don't know if that was ever the intent, but I guess it's one of those things where you don't realize how good it was until it's gone.
Video Game Preservation bad excuse for stealing games
Morpheel and Argorok had some awesome Shadow of the Colossus vibes, as you cling to these behemoths and stab them
Galaxy was literally the whole reason I even bought this game. I eventually tried 64 and Sunshine as well, but got bored after 5 minutes of playing them
i deleted RetroArch because what even is the point of it when individual emulators are faster and easier to configurate
They charged 60$ for 3 ports....
I just don't get Retroarch, I never get it to work, it's so confusing. I can set up individual emulators without issue
The best Gamecube/wii emulator but an awful PS2 emulator!
20:39 you're welcome 😊 love your stuff
You should try retrobat it seems to have the best of both worlds it feels like this video is super old because this is using the best options from maybe 5 years ago ignoring the better tools of today
I grew up with this game on the 3DS. Using the circle pad instead of the D-pad handles very smoothly and beautifully for me, at least on my copy! For someone who hasn't grown up with the original 64 game, I really loved the 64 DS remake and it's one of my favorite games of all time. Yet I can understand the criticism of how the controls are a bit stiff using the D-pad and how the gameplay isn't super smooth. However, I think the controls are vastly improved just simply playing the game on the 3DS thanks a lot to the circle pad! So I can understand where you're coming from, but I still love this game regardless.👍😌
im lucky i grabbed it or i wouldnt be able to play these games cuz i dont have the consoles for these games.
Have you had a chance to try the new intec Hall effect stick?
Nah. Frankly I'm pretty selective over N64 stick alternatives. Lately I've been following RockerGamings progress of producing a new line of steel bowls and sticks. I've got his steal bowl and am quite happy with it. It wasn't cheap (bout $45). But it, along with new kitsch bent gears transformed a dogshit worn stick into the best OEM feeling stick I've used on an original controller.
wow the music transition is the worst thing
Good luck getting dmca'd from nintendo
i hate retroarch. it's just a needless barrier to launching stuff that makes everythings way more awkward and cumbersome
Don't underestimate your intuition! Those "nitpicks" were perfectly spot on criticism that definitely annoyed me enough to not even bother getting the HD remake. Clearly the older versions are far superior. Wish Nintendo would see this video
Frigging hate retroarch. It just sucks
RetroArch is fine enough for *playing games*, especially on mobile, Linux, iPadOS, etc. But emulation is so much more than just playing games, that it's illogical for standalone emulators to shift development entirely into RetroArch cores. There just isn't enough functionality with RetroArch in terms of graphics layer toggling, memory hacking, or debugging. Tool-Assisted Speedruns or even LOTADs are also better done on standalone emulators, or Bizhawk. RetroArch will never fully replace standalone emulators. At worst, it'll be yet another application in the pile on the off-chance you decide to use it for Netplay or CRT filters or whatever. We developers at RetroAchievements stick with standalones or our own version of LibRetro for achievement development, as a testament to how RetroArch fails to be a "one size fits all" emulation solution.
Hmm, but what about using this on a non-HDR, non-4K TV? I have a regular early-2010s 1080p TV from Sony which I want to use for PS2, what do you think, will Tink help with that?
If you don't have a 4k tv of any kind then I would not recommend this product at all. The best device for your situation would probably be the Retrotink5X. That's the premium scaler for 1080p screens. It's $320 which is a lot so if that's too much there may be other options you can consider like the OSSC which is the best budget scaler I've used.
@@Mr.Welbig eh, I'm just one of those weirdos who are willing to overpay hundreds of $ for even the most marginal of improvements, so I'm trying to understand if things like settings profiles are enough of a QOL upgrade to actually use Retrotink4K on a regular 1080p TV hehe.
tbh i think ratched is very human in this game which makes him kinda special but only in the first one
The only reason and instance that i used retroarch was because i could just not find a way to put project 64 to emulate an controller (that shit is harder than i thought)
It depends, tbf if you only care about 1-2 consoles retroarch Is overkill, but as someone that regularly uses N64, SNES, Gameboy Advance/Color, NES and sega consoles i find retroarch better, but still i spend way more time on pcsx2 or rpcs3 so it's always dependent on how often you play other consoles
Sometimes I feel like going through my PC and doing a digital cleaning, but I do get a teeny bit overwhelmed when I see everything all at once. I guess I’ll follow an art rule and only organize one type of thing at a time. Like where my emu apps actually go, like do I want to store shortcuts in a folder, and what would I do with the games?? More folders? Sure, sounds cool. Thanks Mr. RUclips Guy, I have a goal to accomplish today!

Will a WaveBird work with the the N64 adapter?
Mr X was scary to me at first, but after you figure him out he is more of an irritation, because he does just interrupt gameplay. But, hes also super easy to deal with
Wow you actually uttered the word piracy...more than once even. Thank you for not being a whimpy baby gamer who cant even acknowledge reality.
