According to Nintendo YouTubers, Nintendo's ENTIRE 2023 release schedule leaked... without providing any source.
Direct date leaked? I saw videos on how the 2024 lineup leaked.
no
@NintendoPrime, they're not making Odyssey 2
Nintendo Prime and Mike Odyssey, the two kings of terrible clickbait YouTube channels
It's hilarious on how in one of these videos there is talk about the "rumored/leaked list" but there is no such thing, isn't not even shown in the video.
It is what it is. Don't hate the player. Hate the game.
The recent trend of patent reporting has become exhausting, as well. Especially when the patent interpretation is wildly off-base. It's not even a good speculation base. It's just... nothing.
Could quote more, but it's mostly just more repeated stuff.
Nate obviously gets it in so much as "don't hate the player, hate the game". TBH, I wish the game didn't work the way it does on YT. As an example, some of my favorite videos I have done recently are:
(actual news with future NSO speculation)
and
(discussion video about switch as a primary vs secondary system)
My favorite content I produce is technically my weekly podcast, but I get few complaints about that. The common theme you see in this stuff is that there is very little viewership of said content. The youtube game to grow and get viewership is kinda disgusting at times. I know, you can point to many of your favorite content creators and point to how "they didn't do this to grow" - but they also did other things that no longer work today. It's life.
As an example, Mike Odyssey is well aware (he's a friend of mine) that I disagree with almost every take he makes on patents. I cover them sometimes too, but I am aware that patents are mostly nothing burgers save some very rare instances. Most of them are stuff that's already been done, or stuff they experimented with and decided not to do. The only two recently have any remote interest to me, one of them around AI upscaling (which isn't big news or anything) and the other showing those wireless VR headsets along with extra phones doing AR all connected to a central device connected to a TV.
IMHO, it's probably just a concept they experimented with behind the scenes and will never release, but it's interesting - at least to me as interesting as the supposed ToTK patent about falling and shooting arrows etc - which may also be a scrapped idea.
YouTube is a silly place. I like to think most of my actual thoughts on stuff, most often expressed on my weekly podcast, are pretty based - but in the end, growing on social media is a bit of a game. And the game calls for extremely clicky headlines/thumbnails - riding out similar concepts and ideas that are trending in a moment - and hoping that in the end you can maybe use doing so, to build towards a longer term form of what you really WANT to do.
Mr Beast even outright - in his hiring stuff - straight up requires new employees to be amazing at clickbait. He's right out in the open about it. That's the largest content creator in the world. I am no Mr. Beast, but it's just... it's what the game is. I wish the game was play differently, or at least played like it was 5 to 8 years ago.
I will be honest and say I wasn't aware of the Blue Shell video before releasing my video. I saw Mikes video, talked to him about it, and decided I could do it myself too, and added some extra rumors in that he didn't have in his video. And yeah, that video got rightfully blasted in the comments by a dozen people and has my lowest like to dislike ratio in 3 months.
Sadly, it also has 9000 views, and gained me 60 subs. 3x the views of talking about real news like Goldeneye 007's date, and 8x the normal amount of sub growth. The game is disgusting.
Of course I am not required to play the game. But I actually DO enjoy making content and such. It's almost become one of those "necessary evils" that I hope one day I grow to a point that I can slowly phase it out. Time will tell I guess. Probably hit 100k this year over this stupid stuff.
That being said, no clue what's coming in the direct. The whole "direct leak" thing is just about restating known rumors that were already talked about previously on the channel basically. Nothing has leaked. January is a month of scraping the barrel.
I am sorry if it upset anyone. I don't really mean any harm. But I do create youtube content for a living. So, it's life. I definitely can't be exactly like Mike Odyssey though. He's a super nice guy, but he can block out all the negativity about it. Instead, I am here on a forum unrelated to my channel talking about it.
