    I was the kid who won the chance to be in The Mask II. Wanna know what they did instead? When they eventually found out that Jim Carey had no interest in doing a sequel, I received $5,000, a leather jacket, a bunch of THQ games for the Super Nintendo and, when I got to talk on the phone to the woman who voiced Princess Toadstool (which was ridiculously awesome) on the cartoon, I got asked, "is there anything you wish you had from Nintendo"? I already had a N64 so I said I'd love Pilotwings 64. One week later, that's what I got in the mail.
    Nintendo is and was a fantastic company. I still have one of the letters from then and the jacket.

      Nearly every gaming magazine back in those days had someone answering letters in a humorous, often offensive way. Seems like that all went away in the early 2000's.

    • @agonleed3841
      @agonleed3841 7 лет назад +8

      happycrank Ouija board is synonymous with kinda magic, spiritual, speaking into the void.
      Luigi is the second player in Mario Bros. Sometimes the BEST player gets Luigi to give the shit player a chance to play. So When Mario Dies, Luigi goes further. Showing whomever is Mario player all the traps ahead. And when he dies, Luigi, then you could technically say his ghost told Mario where to go.
      Plus it rhymes. Luigi, Ouija.....idk. It does.
      Take all of that or just part of that, and you still should get the joke

    A Nintendo Power game ad introduced me to Shantae. I never got to play it back then and well...still haven't played it. But the memory of seeing that ad will always stay with me forever.:D

    The stapled Nintendo Power Volume 82 page is actually the jar of toenails he already showed in the video. People theorize he probably forgot what was on the page before he stapled it and bought a copy of the magazine to record for the video.

    Random fact: The page stapled shut is the jar of toenail clippings pic. He's been asked before by many. It's also easy to check this by looking up old Nintendo Power online. When he talks about the stapled page, you can see the issue is Volume 82.

      I'm still not convinced though since that's kind of baseless evidence to my eyes.
      If he showed it already, there would be no point of stapling it since us the viewers, have already seen it.
