Third Party Controllers for Nintendo 64
Nintendo’s poor marketing doesn’t make the Wii U a bad console. There were issues for sure, but I’m glad the Wii U is getting some love. Without it, we wouldn’t have the Switch (second best selling Nintendo console of all time).
10:57 I agree that the Xbox 360 controller is probably one of the best controllers made. The shape is just great and the triggers and sticks feel great
keep the streams going!! youre criminally underrated
Thank you so much! I'm hoping to have new stuff coming soon :)
nintendo land was so fire
One thing I thought was interesting is that, all of the Minho families count up in numbers, so it’s possible that the home Grunty annihilated had 10 members.
It is funny how Luigi evolved. There is like 4 different Luigi: - Bardakoff's Luigi is the embodiment of the little brother, something you would think Toad would sound like. But to be honest, I like this carefree joyful version. - Martinet's Luigi's first version is the shy and somehow sound pissed. Like, a father who would participate in an activity he doesn't like and fake being happy so that his children have fun. I guess that is why I always felt Mario Kart 64's Luigi odd inbetween the more energetic characters in the roster. - Smash Bros has an interesting take. For the early iterations, they took Martinet's Mario but speed up the voice, converging with Bardakoff's take on the "little brother" thing. *THEN,* they turned Luigi into a weird depressive guy with unwilling expression when doing move, or the Negative Zone Final Smash. That is an odd characterization! Probably the one I find the most interesting. - The definitive one: Martinet's Luigi's last version is a joyful but scaredy-cat type of character, thanks to Luigi Mansion. This new take was interesting but now feels like... too "corporate" or too "standardized" if that makes sense? But I kind of like it, even if they really want him to make a "looser" sometimes (why?). During the Wii era, I got the feeling he was portrayed more like a weird uncle of some sort.
i still play this game every day, i may not be good at making stuff but i enjoy the game to its fullest
nice video, bad greenscreen
Wow, Julien is so chilled out and has a great attitude x') such a fun watch :3
Thanks! Was a lot of fun to make. Julien is such a great dude!
@@KotBox yuppp imagine if you somehow got him, thomas spindler and giles goddard (programmer of the SM64 title screen head) to do a 3 way matchup on MK64 😂 all three of them are legendary i swear lol
Smart man
The three characters I mainly use are Diddy, Drumstick, and T.T. Timber and Banjo have the best jingles though. The music in this game is amazing.
I'm a diehard defender. My mum has the windwaker edition n i played some skyward sword on it. loved it. had the wii too but the wii u, also with minish cap was better. i gotta disagree with you on one thing tho, i loved twilight princess on the wii
just a recommendation (a very late one also) but do not use a usb stick but instead a proper external hard drive
That's what I've been hearing! Once I've got the extra cash to snag another hard drive, i plan on switching
Great video! Didn't watch.
They do go into that detail more in the DS remake game. Shame that the quality of game play dipped in it.
I loved my Wii U back then. Took it with me everywhere and spend hours gaming on it. Although, I wasn't so into the vWii on it, mainly because I was never allowed to use any TV screen and playing on the Gamepad alone wasn't possible (still isn't, even with Homebrew - but hopefully one day). There is a setup with the Gamepad as the "TV screen", but without anything to hold it, it kept falling over and since many Wii games want you wagle that Remote or point it at the sensor bar, it was quite uncomfortable to play anything. There are Wii VC Injections that allow you to use the Gamepad - which is amazing - but I'd still prefer to be able to control everything on my System with it (mainly the Wii Menu itself) and have access to those controls without needing to specifically inject them into every game that allows that...
Wizpig ptsd
I just have to say this and I realize i'm 7 months late to this video but here are 2 things BETTER about the Wii U than the Switch 1. The Wii U Had its own web browser 2. You didn't need a frickin internet connection every time you wanted to start up a downloaded game Nintendo is looking for ways to make the switch better, there ya go nintendo.
I bought mine for a little over $200.
5:30 I see no Virtual Boy on the table
Wait said you had a Wii u then you didn't have a Wii u 😅
Banjo,TipTup and Timber are my fav characters
I am 45 years old and have only just got this system. I actually love how jovial it makes me feel! The Wii IS the game we wanted back in 1983!!!!!!!😁❤😁❤😁❤😁
That's awesome! Enjoy it, this system is great 🤘
Fun fact, Nintendo Land is a pack in title with the black Wii U That version was a more expensive version as it comes with more storage, and extra little goodies like a kick stand for the gamepad, a charging stand for the gamepad, a stand for the Wii U, and a physical copy of Nintendo Land. It's the version I got back in 2013-14 and boy howdy I had fun! And not to mention the Minecraft Comunity on that thing! Even after the shut down me and The Bois still hang out on Discord to this day! 💙
6:44 I noticed that none of the batteries where original because the original one is smaller than both of those so that means that at some point in that game pads life the old owners replaced the batteries
Interesting catch!
Believe me because I replaced my Wii U game pad battery and the size was unbelievable between the new one and the old
Aaaand dislike, what a waste of time this video is.
You boight a Wii U in 2023? Weakling. I wait till 2024.
Timber!!! My first n64 game!
Is your Wii U modded?
Gonna have to get one just to play Twilight Princess HD. It caught my eye all the way back when it came out, even though I didn’t start playing video games until recently as an adult, and it’s the Zelda game I’ve always been most keen on experiencing for myself. The art style is so evocative, haunting, and beautiful.
I'm part of the few people who bought a wiiu on launch 💀
Idk online games made me feel lonely in single player games like handhelds 😂
7:56 pretetendo juxt
Timber was always my favorite character to use, even without knowing all this.
And now a lot of the physical Wii U games are like $100+, so RIP.
Yeah that happened fast didn't it? The WiiU boom is happening!
i've had my wii u since 2013 and its always been the go to console for parties or if i want to have fun, its a really good console and i'm glad people are actually talking about the wii u in good ways instead of disliking it like back then
Smash 4 walked so Smash ultimate could run
So true. Smash 4 laid a lot of groundwork for Ultimate! Man I wish they had kept Smash Run from 3DS, that mode rocked
Yes, it will always be worth it, no matter what.
I’m surprised Conker is able to drive with that BAC level
10:57 Funny thing about those analog triggers: The Wii did had analog triggers, it was only on the Original Classic Controller, and to my knowledge it was never used on the console, but you can use them either connecting it to a PC or through modding your Wii (To be used in Gamecube games). Nice video, i can relate so much to you on the history you had with nintendo, i had a similar experience growing up jaja. Greetings.
I wonder what Nintendo had in mind when they made those triggers analog! I bet they considered having gamecube compatibility...
love the video! The Wii U was the only Nintendo console I had and I loved it to death. I just started to play it again and this video really got me happy that people still love the Wii U
Timbers my main
Had no clue. Was too busy drifting those corners. This is cool to know though. Gives me a fresh perspective.
While I love the history, I feel the most life & love hearing Martinet in Kart 64, Golf, & Tennis. Those will always be to me, the TRUE voices
My thoughts on this video in no particular order: I fully agree on wanting specifically designed karts again, kart customization becomes cumbersome when everyone is looking for the best combo and all the kart bodies feel painfully generic; It doesn't help that you can't see all your kart options at once, which could easily be done with pre-made karts. I like the idea of the dynamic item boxes which has technically been done before; DK Pass has a special item box that rewards higher-end items for those who use a mushroom to boost to it. Costumes are good, and I also want Mission Mode back too, with some sort of loose narrative to tie it together into a story mode. I think the Wonder Flower is overrated and people are currently high on Wonder hype. Instaed of a new "gimmick", I'd much rather have a tighter gameplay mechanic that rewards skilled players. Something like maintaining a combo to earn specific items, I don't care what it is as long as it's consistent. As for unique wants, please just give me elimination balloon battle again. I also want the roster to be more creative and draw from sub-series like DK, Yoshi, Luigi's Mansion, and Wario's two series. In specific, characters like K. Rool, Poochy, E. Gadd, and Ashley are my top picks.
Cool video. I wish Wario's German roots were more prominent nowadays, Thomas Spindler's performance is still great even today
Hum why? All WII U best gamew are on Switch...
oh i remember the afterglow console controller days...
Very good! Keep doing more videos just like this and you'll be sure to succeed! There's not a doubt in my mind!
