YouTube Spotlight: Why You Should Buy a Wii U in 2014

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BE6wCAXfp2o[/youtube] I don’t always agree with online gaming site GameSpot, particularly concerning their decision to award The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword a 7/10 score, but there’s always something to disagree with, and often something to agree with when it comes to any online publication. Today’s YouTube Spotlight video may seem optim...

YouTube Spotlight: GilvaSunner

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdXgHUvpAuY[/youtube] Fans of GilvaSunner’s YouTube channel know that he uploads Nintendo soundtracks with exceptional quality.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuO-sbpylHg[/youtube] Today’s edition of YouTube Spotlight takes a look at user TheJWittz’s channel, which, until very recently, covered mainly Pokemon material.

YouTube Spotlight: Xbox One vs Nintendo 64

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yL0dLEzutk[/youtube] I remember a time when YouTube was in its humble infancy. It has been interesting to watch the video-sharing site go from there to its current status of the single most popular video-sharing site on the web. If you’re like me, you’re a YouTube regular, using it to watch everything from the latest in-the-millions-of-views bab...

Youtube Tuesday: Super-Fast!! Super Mario World Song

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHcfGYVHpnI[/youtube] Do you think you know everything there is to know about Super Mario World? I thought I did until I saw this video. Apparently in the last special stage you can collect green berries with yoshi that add 20 seconds to your timer, since it is a really long level. Yet, the fascinating trick is that if you use the berries right you can rever...

No way any of this is happening.

Youtube Tuesday – Stop Motion NES

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joA-GJYh-MI[/youtube] Sean sent this video my way a couple of days ago and I’m honestly surprised he didn’t post it. If you haven’t seen it yet… you are sure going to be in for a surprise of what I call nostalgic joy. Side note, anyone readers out there do animation or do stop motion claymation or anything? If you do and have anything...
