It's interesting to see how Strider has evolved over the years. Starting with cartoons, moving onto food and lego and now entering the realms of video games(which he has done a bit before). I think its quite impressive how he can cover so many topics as some content creates can't do that. Good on your strider :3
A part of me wishes he talked about recent cartoons like The Owl House, Amphibia, Glitch Techs, etc. but I still enjoy what Strider does no matter the topic
I guess it because you know some people grow out of joy of watching cartoons. I know I have. I used to love watching Steven universe , Gravity falls, StarVsevil, SpongeBob, Fairly odd, Adventure time, etc. If I was still a younger dude today I think I'd like those new toon, but I found it hard to sit down and watch them. Sometimes cartoon humor can frustrating and I feel like I couldn't give the same enjoyment as I did as someone below my 20s. I recently like Harley Quinn, but I wish they would tone the Crassness a little. P.S. I also have a sorta TV childhood back in the day so I really wished I trade that in for friendship. So trying to better my mental health.
That's the fun thing about "Top 10" channels! The creator can just do a top 10 list of whatever they find to be interesting, so they're incredibly versatile channels!
The joycon drift issue can be permanently fixed now with replacement gullikit sticks. They use magnets instead of physical contacts making drift impossible
Been using... can't remember what it's called, but it's a liquid designed for cars, comes in a can with a thin, plastic nozzle which can spray the liquid under the joy con flap. Doesn't fix the issue permanently, and when it does fix the issue for a while, I sometimes still have to put up with VERY minor drift, but nothing unbearable and it works. Point is, it's a non-intrusive, non-technical, temporary fix, so how does the gullikit stick work? Is it simple to set up?

You can just pour isopropyl alcohol in the stick and rotate it a bit. Really easy fix. When you get stick drift, pour isopropyl alcohol in the stick area and rotate it for a bit and you’re good to go. Save that money on buying a new controller my friends unless you want multiplayer.

I've got the Year of Luigi 3DS, and I used that thing so much it's actually broken IIRC Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, New Super Luigi U and Mario and Luigi: Dream Team also sold rather well
Joycon drift isn't just a Nintendo problem. I have my PS5 controller experience something similar with the camera. For the past couple months, it keeps going to the left after a random amount of minutes after using it. It's an on and off problem but one that is really disorienting to me, especially when doing photo mode with the games I play.
I don't get how these idiots think the drift defect is a Nintendo exclusive issue when it happens on other companies controllers as well, its not like Nintendo CREATED the drifting issue on purpose, it probably only happens more quickly due to how poorly executed the Joycons were designed since they're small as fuck, it's not entirely Nintendo's fault but it still kinda is and the fact these Joycons are so fucking expensive doesn't help 😑
Oh, I can explain the vitality sensor! There were actually two uses. One I had heard about was for those extremely frightening horror games, the sensor could pick up how frightened you were and make things... arguably worse. Nothing like letting a horror game know you're scared to make it make it worse. Second, for the calming thing, this is classic Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. A biofeedback thing. You get a look at your heart rate and do the breathing techniques to reduce it, and you work on it in realtime with feedback. Trust me, I'm a nuthatch who got just enough therapy to not expire from constant anxiety attacks.
The real reason for R.O.B. was that, because of the video game crash of '83, retailers no longer wanted to sell video games. Nintendo came up with this gimmick to originally sell the N.E.S. as an "Interactive Toy with a Robot." This ploy got the console into stores, as well as the games. Once Super Mario Bros sold like mad, retailers' mentality towards selling video games changed forever and the rest is history :)
Speaking of Smash Bros. Smash Ultimate should have been on the list. Since that game is evil Satanic trash that's not even worthy of the table scraps of the Wii Shovel Ware Department.
Weird, yes, but the gas mask game boy thing is actually brilliant. Surgery is a terrifying concept for adults, but for children it’s a literal nightmare. Letting them play their favorite video game as they’re slowly sedated keeps them calm and collected. I really like that idea.
I had surgery for the first time earlier this month, and I fell asleep before they even gave me any gaseous anaesthetic XD They gave me a few pills to take before wheeling me away and I think one of them might have been for sleep. I struggled to get up onto the surgery table I was so sleepy
I prefer XBOX like XBOX live since Nintendo online made a terrible mistake like removing cloud data if you don’t pay every month, and it’s also glitchy. XBOX live is free, so it’s recommended to switch to Xbox
Love that Boo has gotten so much more animated! I have been a fan, subscriber, and watcher for a few years! Loved this video and when you do longer content. But it's nice to see Boo more often! I kinda think of him as the 'Pokemon' you'd have outside its Pokeball like Pikachu And Pika is just as iconic as Ash! Would love to see more little cut aways with Boo
I love how expansive Phantomstrider is with his types of videos. From TV, movies, food, products, games, and much more, I am always entertained by the great variety he has in store for us. This one is one of my new favorites too.😃
@@JustaHedgehoginSonicBoom Exactly! He also takes controversial topics and odd problems with an ounce of humor, but with wholehearted understanding as well.
Like the new Pokemon. I really wanted to play it but after hearing and seeing just how poor the game's quality is it definitely isn't worth the money and I am appalled that Nintendo would release such an unfinished product.
*proceeds to make Mario Sunshine and Majora's Mask, two rushed games that are one of the best ones in the series* *also makes Star Fox Zero, a delayed game that sucked massive chode* Miyamoto never actually said the quote, btw, even if he did, such a statement would be completely wrong
Personally, I feel like a lot of Nintendo's recent faux pas (mainly the poor handling of the NSO) is a direct result of Satoru Iwata's passing. He really was one of the best things to happen to Nintendo from a business standpoint.
I rarely use NSO, but when they make an SV Pokemon COMPLETELY dependent on it to evolve (Finizen-->Palafin) the completionist in me begrudingly got the lowest tier sub for it. Can't use Pokemon Home without it either, it's how I bridge transfer my version exclusives in SWSH with only one Switch to use. Because I really don't want to drop $500 on another OLED Switch just to trade (and then have to pay for NSO AGAIN on the other Switch).
@@jazzratoon I never had that, my internet wasn't good enough to handle online play with my PS3. Never got a PS4 and if I wanted a PS5, I can't find one anywhere.
I know right. I have been a massive Nintendo fan all my life. But their greediness this generation has genuinely made me dislike them and I have now moved on to PlayStation. (Seriously, screw Joy Con Drift). Of course. I will still buy Nintendo game when they are good. Like Metroid Dread and probably Zelda: tears of the kingdom when it comes out. But I’m done pre ordering disappointing games like Animal Crossing, Mario Tennis and Nintendo Labo
@@nine_tails137 exactly. I can actually understand it with PlayStation. You get 36 free games every year, there are dedicated servers and it just works without any connection errors. Yeah, I would prefer it to be free. But at least it works and is actually a good deal. Nintendo Switch Online is just shit, since you don’t pay for anything. Nintendo isn’t even maintaining servers or anything. All their online is done peer to peer (completely dependent on Wi-Fi). Making the connection slower. And they don’t have to spend a dime. It was free during the Wii, DS, Wii U and 3DS era. I don’t mind paying for it, if they actually enhanced the experience. But it honestly feels like the Wii U had better online. There is no reason we should pay for it.
As a Die Hard WiiU fan, it still hurts. It hurts so much too me. I’ve had my WiiU since I was six on Christmas 2013 and it’s such an underrated system with so many neat features and incredible games. And considering that basically half of the Switches games are WiiU ports, think that shows
@@GamerErman2001 I had this only with a Xbox 360 controller. All other controllers I ever had didn't develop this issues. It might be a 1% thing, but considering how many controllers are there 1% will cause a lot of people to complain.
2:29 That made me laugh 😂 Kids (like me) were *also* growing up in a time when Nintendo meant it might work this time or it might frustrate you. Hands up 🙋♀️ for all my peeps who spent hours of their childhood blowing in to cartages.
I'm surprised you didn't have Joshscorcher in on this. He actually did a similar list nearly 3 years ago called top 10 Nintendo Fails, not only that, he's also done lists of top 10 fails on other game companies, like SEGA, Square Enix, and even EA.
Still Wish that Strider and Josh put Super Smash Bros Ultimate on their list. Since that game is demonic trash that was made in one day then vomited out the next day
@@Rusticabcd agreed but its the console that ruins it, the switch is absolute garbage. I’m sorry to say that if you’re a fan but it genuinely sucks imo
@@Rusticabcd honestly it wasn’t that bad but I just have a huge hatred for the joy cons and they ruined my whole experience with the switch especially since I was really looking forward to it. To me it’ll never be redeemable and I hope their next console doesn’t have the same issues.
I'm so glad to hear someone else like the Wii U! Maybe it isn't the most stellar console out there, but it was a great replacement for our Wii after it sadly stopped running. And Nintendoland granted me and my sibling many, many hours of laughs.
Whenever I heard of the Gameboy PediSedate, that reminds me of Angry Video Game Nerd saying that one line, _"I WANNA BE SEDATED WITH A GAMEBOY! I WANNA BE SEDATED WITH A GAMEBOY!"_
I love Nintendo so much. I know that for sure, it is my favourite thing ever so I am glad you touched upon this. Especially since it is things that I have dealt with like the joycon drift. It is very annoying. And even though I knew all of these, I enjoyed it all in the video
I love amiibo (I’m trying to get them all) but the worst part of them has always been availability. Reissues are almost never a thing and stock is almost always sparse even for new ones
One other issue I recall Nintendo having was the N64 control stick situation where people were getting blisters on their palms. I'm pretty sure Nintendo released gloves for that issue. Basically glorified gardening gloves...
You know Nintendo offers free repairs on Joycons in America right? Maybe quit complaining and get them sent to Nintendo, you guys are more lucky in America that the fact Nintendo offers free repairs and the UK doesn't so think about that for a moment
@@HylianBean97 I know that but what happens to them when be sent out. Will it be broken or scrush by the other package? Will be stolen? Will it be fixed and then later the joy con drift will come back?
Wait the Amiibos were a failure? I remember I used to collect all of those things for the Nintendo Wii U Super Smash Bros all the way in 2014, 2015 and 2016.
Amiibo can't be called a failure by any metric, they regularly sold out back in the day and yeah they've waned in popularity but it's also been 8 years for a product that was born out of a fad that it was late to and yet still managed to outlast the competition. Amiibo is basically free money for Nintendo
what a wonderful and refreshing change in tone, great to see you in your element and as a Nintendo fan myself its great to see someone speaking out about these things that Nintendo are very guilty of. cheers stryder , mrs stryder boo and luigi fan xx
I have the opposite of a joycon drift. Instead of my joycons playing the game themselves, they disconnect for 1-2 seconds. They don't disconnect from the switch itself where I have to slide them in again to reconnect them, they just don't respond for 1-2 seconds until all control is given back to me like nothing happened at all. 1-2 seconds may not be a long time, but it is when you're playing 200cc in mario kart
I actually also had joycon drift. but I managed to fix it easily. there is a spray you can use. here in germany it is called "kontaktspray" I used a bit under the rubber-rim of the controller and I haven't had Joycon drift in over 3 years now. I think it's mostly due to dust collecting under the Joycon stick.
I feel like Nintendo does what you said on number 10 because they feel like the idea of free promotion from the fans because I have a feeling that they don’t see the fans doing free promotion for their games is not needed, worth it or profitable apparently?😅🧐🤔🤨😑🙄
The only one I've really experienced is the drifting with my joy con's. Thankfully a $12 repair kit and a nerdy boyfriend makes it a bit easier and cheaper for me to get that fixed if/when it happens lol. I did experience labor but only because my boyfriend begged me to split the cost with him. I generally wasn't interested in it though
For accessories, we could also add the N64DD (US and Japanese prototype), NES internet adaptor (Japanese exclusive), NES Lottery attachment (Michigan only prototype), the Wavebird (Gamecube wireless controller), and even more that I am completely spacing. EDIT: The XBand SNES Modem (Prototype)
How fitting that this came out today as I have started playing Pokemon Red and Sun on my 3DS for the first time in almost 5 years and I have played a bit with Bayonetta 3, SSBU, AC NH, MK8D and Sonic Frontiers all on my Switch. So it was quite a Nintendo day for me.
20:58 The GC controller port and the memory card port are both needed to play GameCube games so I think you should have just said that they cut the backwards compatibility instead of listing the 3 things as different. You can use the GameCube controller on some Wii games but in that case you should have said (in my opinion) “the Wii mini loses the ability to play GameCube games, meaning you can no longer use the GameCube controller on compatible Wii games if you want to” or something along those lines.
I know this is very unrelated to the Nintendo,but I wanted to tell you that in your “scary SpongeBob games” video, you were confused on how squidward worked in the “five nights at the krusty krab” game. It’s because you were mixing up flickering the light with holding the the light. Hopefully with this new info, you can beat night 3(and probably night 6 because of how easy it is).
I have a Switch Lite, and I have NEVER seen any JoyCon drift on my end. Granted, it's just the Switch Lite, but it is majorly useful in avoiding paying out the nose for a JoyCon that sometimes doesn't work. Some games aren't compatible with the thing, like Mario Party Superstars, but hey, it's cheaper! 19:47 In case you're wondering what is causing poor Strider to convulse in horror, apparently, in that game, you have to tinkle (a.k.a. PEE) in this game, or else you'll wake up to an angry mom and a stained bedsheet. I'm dead serious. I had to look that up.
"Why are people ok with nintendo putting up a paywall to play online?" Because Xbox Live and PS Plus? I mean it was only a matter of time, at least a yearly subscription for the general online is less than half Microsoft and Sony are charging.
You know, I never understood that idea of a 'comfort content creator' but you know what? Strider would be one for me. His videos are always so warm and welcoming.
Another person effected by Nintendo’s copyright thing is a RUclipsr named SML. He used to be called Super Mario Logan and he used to make plush videos with Mario plushies but since Nintendo copyrighted him he had to use puppets that don’t look like the Nintendo characters
1:21 that’s Dragon Quest XI S. I highly recommend you play that game. It’s a masterpiece. From its story, memorable characters and it’s turned based combat that feels new. I won’t go into detail, but if I were to say who’s my favorite characters to use, it’s Sylvando, Erik, and Jade.
The rob has such a cool design and it’s even made it’s way into smash bros and Mario kart but the overall way the accessory works I can understand why it didn’t sell well
I think another reason why the sales for Amiibo dropped is because they stopped shipping products to small town stores where the only thing fun to do is play video games, forcing people to go too far away to get them or order online where they are more expensive than they should be. People like me who want certain figures can’t get them due entirely to location and scalpers/resellers.
This is a good reminder to people that despite its legendary status in video game history Nintendo is not a perfect company anymore so then its competitors and that we shouldn’t forget to call out its mistakes despite its solid track record of games
Despite its failure, I actually like the virtual boy. The music and graphics are good if you can ignore the red and the 3d is impressive. The game library, while small, isn't half bad for basically being a launch lineup and nothing else. The homebrew scene is great too. Glad to own one. Most of all, it pains me that we never got donkey kong country 2 like originally planned. Played under comfortable conditions, it could've been an awesome experience. Also glad I have a Cdi. Hotel isn't half bad for an arcade style game and the prototype of Mario's wacky world's proves the cdi could make some pretty graphics, if the system were more powerful and with nintendo being more willing to guide philips through development, a decent follow up could've been made to smw1.
The mini consoles always seemed so cool to me. I have a Switch Lite now (it was a gift so I didn’t have a say. But I still love it), and my cousin a couple years ago had a Wii Mini and I just thought thought it was the coolest looking thing. Maybe it was the colours. Because like the switch lite it had more variety with the colours, and it just seemed intriguing. Colour = neutron activation sometimes for me. Maybe it’s just my way of coping for having the downgraded versions of everything. Though I also had a Wii U and that seemed like more of an upgrade than anything.
Even the d-pad on a Switch Lite tends to start producing phantom "up" inputs after heavy use. It's particularly annoying in Super Mario Maker when Mario climbs a vine that you didn't intend to climb. You learn to put your finger a little lower on the d-pad to keep the game from reading an up press while you run past a vine.

That Vitality Sensor looks like something used in a doctor's office to take temperatures and check pulses. The correct term for this device is Pulse Oximeter Thermometer.
With the drifting you can use an controller instead of buying 10 new ones in feel like 😅. As far as i know the controller has less issues, and i really like playing with them. Mine do not have any issues after 5-6 years
Nintendo recently filed a patent for a new kind of joystick to be used in their next console, it uses some sort of magnetic fluid in them that prevents them from drifting also another thing about Nintendo Online, it doesn't use servers, it runs off YOUR OWN WIFI, so if the host (first person to connect in a game) disconnects, then SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE PLAYING, it's really bad
The Game Boy Micro was actually useful during middle school assemblies. It was super small and didn't raise as much attention as the SP. Made it easier to snuggle in
You should do sega next but the opposite due to there's way to many failures so I think what about the good sega as a company has done, like buying atlus or beginning online gaming with the dreamcast and the sega channel.
Pretty good video, but I do think there's a bit of inaccurate information regarding the Philips CD-i. It would have made more sense to list Number 1 as "CD-i Games," not just "CD-i" in general because Nintendo didn't actually produce the CD-i. Nintendo did have plans to make a CD add-on for the SNES with Sony, but the plans fell through due to licensing disagreements between Nintendo and Sony. That's why Nintendo went on to propose a similar add-on to Philips, but the accessory itself never came to fruition and Philips produced the CD-i especially after the commercial failure of the Sega CD. It ended up being too much of a risk for Nintendo to take at that point. The thing about the contractual agreement between Nintendo and Philips is that Philips was allowed to produce some games with certain Mario and Zelda characters, which is why we got those infamous CD-i Mario and Zelda games. Nintendo apparently had no part in the development process for those games except for input on the character appearances, so the independent studios who were in charge of developing the games had freedom to create whatever they wanted to put in, all on a console that had technical limitations due to being made more as a home entertainment system that wasn't exactly a console dedicated to solely video games (some applications were designed for business and educational purposes), resulting in technical problems for the Mario and Zelda games themselves. There's definitely some parts you got right, but I honestly think more extensive research could've been done for the CD-i segment. However, the Philips CD-i has quite a history that could be a whole video in and of itself.
I don't think Nintendo sees Nintendo online as a failure because it's so forced, I have Nintendo Online + Expansion back because my Wii U broke (story bout that between the lines if you'd like to read) ----- I'm Canadian, I got my Wii U in Canada, my brother and I LOVED it! We never got a lot of games for it, only like 5 or 6, but we thoroughly enjoyed each game However, we had to move to England, and we weren't leaving this Wii U behind! So we got a converter and brought it over with us, I think we had our Canadian Wii too, but that broke On the virtual console, we bought the original Paper Mario, which my sister absolutely loved, she played it all the way through, backwards and forewards and everything One fateful day, she asked me to hook it up! So I did, we'd moved yet again intoba smaller house so we relied on a power strip, and I plugged the step up converter, which was a bit old and sketchy at this point, into the power strip and sparks flew out of the converter box, I had NEVER moved so fast in my life It tripped the breaker and we never got a new power cable for the WiiU ----- So with the access to older games, that I don't have, Nintendo Online is worth it, it's given me many good experiences with my family and friends, but it's an absolute rip off that you have to pay an extortionate amount for online play! I do like that you get DLCs with it though, but it may be cheaper in the long run to outright buy them if you buy Online a lot
fun fact on the apprentice: It has fatalities you can input during the game overs, and is actually a good game that took advantage of what the CD-I was capable of. Also for CD-I zeldas, the animations were done by Russian companies, and the more you look into Soviet Animation, the more the style makes perfect sense.
Have you ever saw how this nintendo copyright issue rewrote the life of youtube channel SML? It used the Mario game characters with original characters since 2007, and by 2019, they had to recreate all of the Nintendo characters like Mario, Bowser, Rosalina, Toad, and even original guys like Junior, Joseph, Cody, and Black Yoshi, and turn all of them into original designs
If I can issue a correction on your Nintendo Switch online section, $20.00 for basic internet functionality aside, you mentioned repeatedly that they charge a monthly fee. It’s actually an annual fee. $20.00 usd *a year* is not that bad, when they actually expanded it to over 100 games as of 2023. Including ones that have never been rereleased on other digital stores of theirs.

But hopefully these new sticks become standard.

For an honorable mention, I would also put in The Year of Luigi.
Losing nearly $400 million dollars just to promote Green Mario all year.
My 3DS XL was actually one from the Year of Luigi. There's actually a design printed on the bottom of it lol.
Wrong. The Year of Luigi 2013 was a Success. The thing that lost Nintendo that much money was the failure of the Wii U which released in Nov 2012
I've got the Year of Luigi 3DS, and I used that thing so much it's actually broken
IIRC Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, New Super Luigi U and Mario and Luigi: Dream Team also sold rather well
It had nothing to do with the Year Of Luigi, it was just because of Wii U overall popularity
Luigi is not “Green Mario” , he’s got a whole ass personality and his own games.

The crazy thing is that R.O.B is such a popular thing back in the 80’s it was in the smash bros series since Brawl!
The real reason for R.O.B. was that, because of the video game crash of '83, retailers no longer wanted to sell video games. Nintendo came up with this gimmick to originally sell the N.E.S. as an "Interactive Toy with a Robot." This ploy got the console into stores, as well as the games. Once Super Mario Bros sold like mad, retailers' mentality towards selling video games changed forever and the rest is history :)
Rob also appeared as a playablw guest character in Mario Kart DS for the original Nintendo DS.

Smash Ultimate should have been on the list.
Since that game is evil Satanic trash that's not even worthy of the table scraps of the Wii Shovel Ware Department.

Weird, yes, but the gas mask game boy thing is actually brilliant. Surgery is a terrifying concept for adults, but for children it’s a literal nightmare. Letting them play their favorite video game as they’re slowly sedated keeps them calm and collected. I really like that idea.
Yeah, I was one of those kids and was terrified surgeons would chop me up like a meat carcass. This may have helped me.
I'm afraid of that fear
Im a fan
I had surgery for the first time earlier this month, and I fell asleep before they even gave me any gaseous anaesthetic XD They gave me a few pills to take before wheeling me away and I think one of them might have been for sleep. I struggled to get up onto the surgery table I was so sleepy
Plus it wasn’t a consumer product so I’m not sure if it can really be called a failure
Interesting how just a few minutes ago I was thinking "PhantomStrider hasn't uploaded in a while"
It really be like that every time.
@@sageoffire3964 true
It was two weeks ago
Same lol
I prefer XBOX like XBOX live since Nintendo online made a terrible mistake like removing cloud data if you don’t pay every month, and it’s also glitchy. XBOX live is free, so it’s recommended to switch to Xbox
Love that Boo has gotten so much more animated! I have been a fan, subscriber, and watcher for a few years! Loved this video and when you do longer content.
But it's nice to see Boo more often!
I kinda think of him as the 'Pokemon' you'd have outside its Pokeball like Pikachu
And Pika is just as iconic as Ash!
Would love to see more little cut aways with Boo
Boo is pretty awesome :)
I love how expansive Phantomstrider is with his types of videos. From TV, movies, food, products, games, and much more, I am always entertained by the great variety he has in store for us. This one is one of my new favorites too.😃
That’s what I love about him 🥰

"A delayed game is eventually good. A rushed game is forever bad."
-Shigeru Miyamoto.
Sometimes a game can be delayed a bunch, then have its production become rushed, and still be bad
Duke nukem 3D bring the prime example
Like the new Pokemon. I really wanted to play it but after hearing and seeing just how poor the game's quality is it definitely isn't worth the money and I am appalled that Nintendo would release such an unfinished product.
*proceeds to make Mario Sunshine and Majora's Mask, two rushed games that are one of the best ones in the series*
*also makes Star Fox Zero, a delayed game that sucked massive chode*
Miyamoto never actually said the quote, btw, even if he did, such a statement would be completely wrong
clearly corporate never listened to him
Personally, I feel like a lot of Nintendo's recent faux pas (mainly the poor handling of the NSO) is a direct result of Satoru Iwata's passing. He really was one of the best things to happen to Nintendo from a business standpoint.
I rarely use NSO, but when they make an SV Pokemon COMPLETELY dependent on it to evolve (Finizen-->Palafin) the completionist in me begrudingly got the lowest tier sub for it. Can't use Pokemon Home without it either, it's how I bridge transfer my version exclusives in SWSH with only one Switch to use. Because I really don't want to drop $500 on another OLED Switch just to trade (and then have to pay for NSO AGAIN on the other Switch).

God, as a massive Nintendo fan... all of this hurts... nice vid as always Strider
Hi.
I know right. I have been a massive Nintendo fan all my life. But their greediness this generation has genuinely made me dislike them and I have now moved on to PlayStation. (Seriously, screw Joy Con Drift).
Of course. I will still buy Nintendo game when they are good. Like Metroid Dread and probably Zelda: tears of the kingdom when it comes out. But I’m done pre ordering disappointing games like Animal Crossing, Mario Tennis and Nintendo Labo
I really don't like the whole: "Pay to play online".
I already paid for the console and the game. So why do I need to pay more for online play?
@@nine_tails137 exactly. I can actually understand it with PlayStation. You get 36 free games every year, there are dedicated servers and it just works without any connection errors. Yeah, I would prefer it to be free. But at least it works and is actually a good deal.
Nintendo Switch Online is just shit, since you don’t pay for anything. Nintendo isn’t even maintaining servers or anything. All their online is done peer to peer (completely dependent on Wi-Fi). Making the connection slower. And they don’t have to spend a dime. It was free during the Wii, DS, Wii U and 3DS era. I don’t mind paying for it, if they actually enhanced the experience. But it honestly feels like the Wii U had better online.
There is no reason we should pay for it.
@@wplays4271 Honestly, I'm concerned Pokemon players like myself, won't be able to trade Pokemon because of this?
As a Die Hard WiiU fan, it still hurts. It hurts so much too me. I’ve had my WiiU since I was six on Christmas 2013 and it’s such an underrated system with so many neat features and incredible games. And considering that basically half of the Switches games are WiiU ports, think that shows
Sounds like you never played ps4 or ps5
I was actually surprised to learn about Joycon Drift. I’ve had a Switch for a few years and I’ve never had that issue.
It's actually a problem with a lot of game controllers but it's either more common or more well known with Joycons.
@@GamerErman2001 I had this only with a Xbox 360 controller. All other controllers I ever had didn't develop this issues. It might be a 1% thing, but considering how many controllers are there 1% will cause a lot of people to complain.
@@lumer2b Now that I think about it I had drift happen to an XBOX One controller.
I will never stop being honestly shocked hearing about the failure of the WiiU. Mainly because my family got one back when it came out.
I got one and it was great with VC games. But Nintendo screwed me and now my ethics on pirating Nintendo stuff has lowered
2:29
That made me laugh 😂
Kids (like me) were *also* growing up in a time when Nintendo meant it might work this time or it might frustrate you.
Hands up 🙋♀️ for all my peeps who spent hours of their childhood blowing in to cartages.
Strider doing more stuff with his top tens is just such a breath of fresh air and I am seriously happy about it
I'm surprised you didn't have Joshscorcher in on this. He actually did a similar list nearly 3 years ago called top 10 Nintendo Fails, not only that, he's also done lists of top 10 fails on other game companies, like SEGA, Square Enix, and even EA.
Still Wish that Strider and Josh put Super Smash Bros Ultimate on their list.
Since that game is demonic trash that was made in one day then vomited out the next day
@@dylansmith5206
Are you kidding? Ultimate is the best Smash Bros. Game, the worst has to be 3DS/Wii U.
@@Rusticabcd agreed but its the console that ruins it, the switch is absolute garbage. I’m sorry to say that if you’re a fan but it genuinely sucks imo
@@filxie
The switch isn't garbage.
@@Rusticabcd honestly it wasn’t that bad but I just have a huge hatred for the joy cons and they ruined my whole experience with the switch especially since I was really looking forward to it. To me it’ll never be redeemable and I hope their next console doesn’t have the same issues.
I'm so glad to hear someone else like the Wii U! Maybe it isn't the most stellar console out there, but it was a great replacement for our Wii after it sadly stopped running. And Nintendoland granted me and my sibling many, many hours of laughs.
Whenever I heard of the Gameboy PediSedate, that reminds me of Angry Video Game Nerd saying that one line,
_"I WANNA BE SEDATED WITH A GAMEBOY! I WANNA BE SEDATED WITH A GAMEBOY!"_
I love Nintendo so much. I know that for sure, it is my favourite thing ever so I am glad you touched upon this. Especially since it is things that I have dealt with like the joycon drift. It is very annoying. And even though I knew all of these, I enjoyed it all in the video
I don’t have any issue with pro-controller. Maybe try one of those if you want.
I love amiibo (I’m trying to get them all) but the worst part of them has always been availability. Reissues are almost never a thing and stock is almost always sparse even for new ones
I hope Nintendo can print new batches of Metroid Amiibos :)
One other issue I recall Nintendo having was the N64 control stick situation where people were getting blisters on their palms. I'm pretty sure Nintendo released gloves for that issue. Basically glorified gardening gloves...
Nice reference to Jim Carrey Christmas Carol. I actually saw it for the first time last year. It was awesome!
I feel bad for the amiibos, I loved those lil guys. I just wish they were handled more.
The joycon drift was so frustrated for me. It got to the point where I didn't play my switch for a couple of months.
You know Nintendo offers free repairs on Joycons in America right? Maybe quit complaining and get them sent to Nintendo, you guys are more lucky in America that the fact Nintendo offers free repairs and the UK doesn't so think about that for a moment
@@HylianBean97 I know that but what happens to them when be sent out. Will it be broken or scrush by the other package? Will be stolen? Will it be fixed and then later the joy con drift will come back?
great vid phantomstrider you alway's bring a smile to my face
Wait the Amiibos were a failure?
I remember I used to collect all of those things for the Nintendo Wii U Super Smash Bros all the way in 2014, 2015 and 2016.
The way they were handled was a failure. They still sell well, but not nearly as much as back then
Amiibo can't be called a failure by any metric, they regularly sold out back in the day and yeah they've waned in popularity but it's also been 8 years for a product that was born out of a fad that it was late to and yet still managed to outlast the competition. Amiibo is basically free money for Nintendo
what a wonderful and refreshing change in tone, great to see you in your element and as a Nintendo fan myself its great to see someone speaking out about these things that Nintendo are very guilty of. cheers stryder , mrs stryder boo and luigi fan xx
Thanks for the visit!
@@phantomstrider I'm a permeant guest by now lol
@@phantomstrider Hey just curious why don't you like south park anymore?
I have the opposite of a joycon drift. Instead of my joycons playing the game themselves, they disconnect for 1-2 seconds. They don't disconnect from the switch itself where I have to slide them in again to reconnect them, they just don't respond for 1-2 seconds until all control is given back to me like nothing happened at all. 1-2 seconds may not be a long time, but it is when you're playing 200cc in mario kart
This was such a fun video to watch, great job Strider! I have to say #9 really needed to be #1, personally....you all did an amazing job together!
I still own a virtual boy lol
I gotta say personally every time you were done using that thing as a kid I would have the worst migrane of all time
Lol same
All in red and black lol
9:12 "It's a shame good old R.O.B failed so badly and was never attempted again"
Me who owns 47 Amiibo: 👀
My brother and I have wanted video related content for quite awhile. Thx Strider!
I actually also had joycon drift. but I managed to fix it easily. there is a spray you can use. here in germany it is called "kontaktspray" I used a bit under the rubber-rim of the controller and I haven't had Joycon drift in over 3 years now. I think it's mostly due to dust collecting under the Joycon stick.
I think it’s wd-40 contact cleaner in america
“I want to be sedated by the GAMEBOY!” - AVGN
I dont know what it is exactly, but it’s always a pleasure seeing a new video of yours! 🙌🏼
Finally, a video that isn’t just Strider shaming people for eating food!
I feel like Nintendo does what you said on number 10 because they feel like the idea of free promotion from the fans because I have a feeling that they don’t see the fans doing free promotion for their games is not needed, worth it or profitable apparently?😅🧐🤔🤨😑🙄
The only one I've really experienced is the drifting with my joy con's. Thankfully a $12 repair kit and a nerdy boyfriend makes it a bit easier and cheaper for me to get that fixed if/when it happens lol. I did experience labor but only because my boyfriend begged me to split the cost with him. I generally wasn't interested in it though
Every day is a good day when Strider uploads, even at 11:00 PM
True, I love his videos
Since when was amiibo on failure I absolutely loved them! I even still have my Mario smash one still to this day
For accessories, we could also add the N64DD (US and Japanese prototype), NES internet adaptor (Japanese exclusive), NES Lottery attachment (Michigan only prototype), the Wavebird (Gamecube wireless controller), and even more that I am completely spacing.
EDIT: The XBand SNES Modem (Prototype)
What's wrong with the Wavebird?
@@foxymetroid Nothing past being a financial failure for Nintendo.
Don't forget about the NES piano, the Wii car adapter and the GameCube keyboard controller from Japan
@スパイダーマン I forgot about the ACII Keyboard controller!
How fitting that this came out today as I have started playing Pokemon Red and Sun on my 3DS for the first time in almost 5 years and I have played a bit with Bayonetta 3, SSBU, AC NH, MK8D and Sonic Frontiers all on my Switch. So it was quite a Nintendo day for me.
You know, the Nintendo law suit thing reminded me of Mattel for how copyright hungry they are.
Joy on drift: exists
Me who doesn’t use the joycons: man, sucks to suck
20:58 The GC controller port and the memory card port are both needed to play GameCube games so I think you should have just said that they cut the backwards compatibility instead of listing the 3 things as different.
You can use the GameCube controller on some Wii games but in that case you should have said (in my opinion) “the Wii mini loses the ability to play GameCube games, meaning you can no longer use the GameCube controller on compatible Wii games if you want to” or something along those lines.
I'm glad the CDi was a thing, because without it, the world of RUclips Poops would never be the same
I think last time someone paid a lot of money to play with cardboard, They ended up throwing away the TV it came with
I heard their neighbor got some use from the TV, but ended up wanting some cardboard afterwards.

Hearing the Super Mario World Music in the background of this video is my everything 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I know this is very unrelated to the Nintendo,but I wanted to tell you that in your “scary SpongeBob games” video, you were confused on how squidward worked in the “five nights at the krusty krab” game. It’s because you were mixing up flickering the light with holding the the light. Hopefully with this new info, you can beat night 3(and probably night 6 because of how easy it is).
I have a Switch Lite, and I have NEVER seen any JoyCon drift on my end. Granted, it's just the Switch Lite, but it is majorly useful in avoiding paying out the nose for a JoyCon that sometimes doesn't work. Some games aren't compatible with the thing, like Mario Party Superstars, but hey, it's cheaper!
19:47 In case you're wondering what is causing poor Strider to convulse in horror, apparently, in that game, you have to tinkle (a.k.a. PEE) in this game, or else you'll wake up to an angry mom and a stained bedsheet. I'm dead serious. I had to look that up.
I knew Joycon Drift would be here… I’ve had this issue with my first joycons
"Why are people ok with nintendo putting up a paywall to play online?"
Because Xbox Live and PS Plus? I mean it was only a matter of time, at least a yearly subscription for the general online is less than half Microsoft and Sony are charging.
You know, I never understood that idea of a 'comfort content creator' but you know what? Strider would be one for me. His videos are always so warm and welcoming.
I loved the Wii U. Every once and awhile I’ll still go and get it out and play some games.
I like how "Tito" is just Sam from Total Drama dressed up as Angry Video Game Nerd.
First! Great vid Strider!
And thank you for FINALLY giving Switch Online a much-deserved kicking! Especially after how it ruined GoldenEye!
Another person effected by Nintendo’s copyright thing is a RUclipsr named SML. He used to be called Super Mario Logan and he used to make plush videos with Mario plushies but since Nintendo copyrighted him he had to use puppets that don’t look like the Nintendo characters
“Phantom thumb” is such a funny way to describe joycon drift😂
1:21 that’s Dragon Quest XI S. I highly recommend you play that game. It’s a masterpiece. From its story, memorable characters and it’s turned based combat that feels new. I won’t go into detail, but if I were to say who’s my favorite characters to use, it’s Sylvando, Erik, and Jade.
From the distance, you can hear a certain angry nerd yell “WHAT WERE THEY THINKING!?”
I love his views on the nintendo products and more. I hope he doesn't get a copyright strike for this video. Great job strider.
The rob has such a cool design and it’s even made it’s way into smash bros and Mario kart but the overall way the accessory works I can understand why it didn’t sell well
3:21 Ayo that was my clip! Great video regardless 👍
Strange, I still haven't had a case of Joycon drift... I dunno why I've not encountered it. I've had OTHER issues, but not drift
I think another reason why the sales for Amiibo dropped is because they stopped shipping products to small town stores where the only thing fun to do is play video games, forcing people to go too far away to get them or order online where they are more expensive than they should be. People like me who want certain figures can’t get them due entirely to location and scalpers/resellers.
Sure they were crappy, but you can’t deny that the CDI games provided great, nostalgic YTP material 👌😌
This is a good reminder to people that despite its legendary status in video game history Nintendo is not a perfect company anymore so then its competitors and that we shouldn’t forget to call out its mistakes despite its solid track record of games
Despite its failure, I actually like the virtual boy. The music and graphics are good if you can ignore the red and the 3d is impressive. The game library, while small, isn't half bad for basically being a launch lineup and nothing else. The homebrew scene is great too. Glad to own one. Most of all, it pains me that we never got donkey kong country 2 like originally planned. Played under comfortable conditions, it could've been an awesome experience.
Also glad I have a Cdi. Hotel isn't half bad for an arcade style game and the prototype of Mario's wacky world's proves the cdi could make some pretty graphics, if the system were more powerful and with nintendo being more willing to guide philips through development, a decent follow up could've been made to smw1.
Phantomstrider here is a top 10 video idea you should do next: Top 10 Most Violet Villains in Cartoons.
Nintendo may not be one of those "Flawless Companies" But they are one of the recognizable companies ever that has a lot of titles, I like it!
Sega is recognizable too
I Was in Discord Server where someone tried to argue that the Labo will have a bigger impact then God of War (2018) since they came out the same day
The mini consoles always seemed so cool to me. I have a Switch Lite now (it was a gift so I didn’t have a say. But I still love it), and my cousin a couple years ago had a Wii Mini and I just thought thought it was the coolest looking thing. Maybe it was the colours. Because like the switch lite it had more variety with the colours, and it just seemed intriguing. Colour = neutron activation sometimes for me. Maybe it’s just my way of coping for having the downgraded versions of everything. Though I also had a Wii U and that seemed like more of an upgrade than anything.
Honestly the Wii mini was a steal
Given it came with a controller and MK Wii the console was basically free
I got a switch lite because I didn't want to pay more for a future I wasn't going to use.
Even the d-pad on a Switch Lite tends to start producing phantom "up" inputs after heavy use. It's particularly annoying in Super Mario Maker when Mario climbs a vine that you didn't intend to climb. You learn to put your finger a little lower on the d-pad to keep the game from reading an up press while you run past a vine.
i had to go through joycon drift its been a freaking nightmare

That Vitality Sensor looks like something used in a doctor's office to take temperatures and check pulses. The correct term for this device is Pulse Oximeter Thermometer.
With the drifting you can use an controller instead of buying 10 new ones in feel like 😅. As far as i know the controller has less issues, and i really like playing with them. Mine do not have any issues after 5-6 years
The inverted Joy-con in the thumbnail gives me so much stress and anger and anxiety that it is funny
Nintendo recently filed a patent for a new kind of joystick to be used in their next console, it uses some sort of magnetic fluid in them that prevents them from drifting
also another thing about Nintendo Online, it doesn't use servers, it runs off YOUR OWN WIFI, so if the host (first person to connect in a game) disconnects, then SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE PLAYING, it's really bad
The Game Boy Micro was actually useful during middle school assemblies. It was super small and didn't raise as much attention as the SP. Made it easier to snuggle in
You should do sega next but the opposite due to there's way to many failures so I think what about the good sega as a company has done, like buying atlus or beginning online gaming with the dreamcast and the sega channel.

Small correction: You need a membership to play online on Xbox Live, but not for free games, only paid games require a subscription.
Pretty good video, but I do think there's a bit of inaccurate information regarding the Philips CD-i. It would have made more sense to list Number 1 as "CD-i Games," not just "CD-i" in general because Nintendo didn't actually produce the CD-i. Nintendo did have plans to make a CD add-on for the SNES with Sony, but the plans fell through due to licensing disagreements between Nintendo and Sony. That's why Nintendo went on to propose a similar add-on to Philips, but the accessory itself never came to fruition and Philips produced the CD-i especially after the commercial failure of the Sega CD. It ended up being too much of a risk for Nintendo to take at that point.
The thing about the contractual agreement between Nintendo and Philips is that Philips was allowed to produce some games with certain Mario and Zelda characters, which is why we got those infamous CD-i Mario and Zelda games. Nintendo apparently had no part in the development process for those games except for input on the character appearances, so the independent studios who were in charge of developing the games had freedom to create whatever they wanted to put in, all on a console that had technical limitations due to being made more as a home entertainment system that wasn't exactly a console dedicated to solely video games (some applications were designed for business and educational purposes), resulting in technical problems for the Mario and Zelda games themselves.
There's definitely some parts you got right, but I honestly think more extensive research could've been done for the CD-i segment. However, the Philips CD-i has quite a history that could be a whole video in and of itself.
I don't think Nintendo sees Nintendo online as a failure because it's so forced, I have Nintendo Online + Expansion back because my Wii U broke (story bout that between the lines if you'd like to read)
-----
I'm Canadian, I got my Wii U in Canada, my brother and I LOVED it! We never got a lot of games for it, only like 5 or 6, but we thoroughly enjoyed each game
However, we had to move to England, and we weren't leaving this Wii U behind! So we got a converter and brought it over with us, I think we had our Canadian Wii too, but that broke
On the virtual console, we bought the original Paper Mario, which my sister absolutely loved, she played it all the way through, backwards and forewards and everything
One fateful day, she asked me to hook it up! So I did, we'd moved yet again intoba smaller house so we relied on a power strip, and I plugged the step up converter, which was a bit old and sketchy at this point, into the power strip and sparks flew out of the converter box, I had NEVER moved so fast in my life
It tripped the breaker and we never got a new power cable for the WiiU
-----
So with the access to older games, that I don't have, Nintendo Online is worth it, it's given me many good experiences with my family and friends, but it's an absolute rip off that you have to pay an extortionate amount for online play! I do like that you get DLCs with it though, but it may be cheaper in the long run to outright buy them if you buy Online a lot
10:42 It's rumored on a quite night in the distance you can still hear the AVGN screaming "I WANT BE SEDATED WITH A GAME BOY!"
31:02 you do know that Nintendo didn’t make the cdi Phillips did. Nintendo just let them use their characters.
Do Top 5 Worst/Best Taiwanese Cartoons!
fun fact on the apprentice:
It has fatalities you can input during the game overs, and is actually a good game that took advantage of what the CD-I was capable of.
Also for CD-I zeldas, the animations were done by Russian companies, and the more you look into Soviet Animation, the more the style makes perfect sense.
I wonder if you’ll do a top ten Sony/PlayStation fails and a top ten Xbox/Microsoft fails
Have you ever saw how this nintendo copyright issue rewrote the life of youtube channel SML? It used the Mario game characters with original characters since 2007, and by 2019, they had to recreate all of the Nintendo characters like Mario, Bowser, Rosalina, Toad, and even original guys like Junior, Joseph, Cody, and Black Yoshi, and turn all of them into original designs
If I can issue a correction on your Nintendo Switch online section, $20.00 for basic internet functionality aside, you mentioned repeatedly that they charge a monthly fee. It’s actually an annual fee. $20.00 usd *a year* is not that bad, when they actually expanded it to over 100 games as of 2023. Including ones that have never been rereleased on other digital stores of theirs.
