The Reason WHY We QUIT Nintendo | Nontendo Podcast #1

we didn't decide on a intro no we did not we have nothing well this is the first one so we're gonna we're gonna like work our way into one we have like or like after a few podcasts i feel like we'll have like a set intro do you wanna do you want to say the name of the podcast it is right nontendo podcast we should have waited to start until it was red we've stopped i thought about that we started at the white pot do you want to wait no we've already all right this is my great friend wood over here what are you doing sure i've been waiting to say this because we've we've set this up so we're looking at each other and i'm like looking at i don't usually look at people okay i have a great smile thank you so much and i've been waiting to say that until we started how you doing your teeth are so white i just whitened them really i did i would do that but apparently my enamel is shot to heck oh yeah it's it's it's tingly instincts the the dentist told me like i went to the dentist recently kim can attest to this i went to get a checkup and a clean and after five minutes she goes so i want to help you save your teeth what's the worst i haven't been to the dentist in like many years apparently i grind well kim can also attest to this i grind my teeth at night badly it's not good you need like a guard that's what he said and you just don't i well i don't want one you're you're i can't imagine you're a bad destination in my mouth you just try it a few times well i have to go and get a mold done um but yeah that in coffee has r has destroyed that's why i'm widening my teeth because i've been drinking a lot more that's that's healthy just just trying to tell me coffee's not healthy glug all the coffee destroy the teeth but then lighten them and ruin the announcement and you only white in the front so the backs are gonna be all messed up we're supposed to be getting started to the topic of the podcast at the very beginning as our managers explained that we need to do true actually that is true the one thing we were told when we said to our managers we were starting a podcast which you need a clear goal a clear definition of what the show is right so starting with the five minute rent on teeth care is probably not the best probably not no uh we both are nintendo youtubers right mostly we do very similar things on the internet with nintendo i've been pushing for this for so long and you have wanted nothing to do with it so it we had a meeting with our management uh not a meeting we were just hanging out really yeah and you kind of accosted me our manager we have the same manager our manager was in the middle of us yeah and you said that's why we need to start a podcast and i reached over and i said we would freaking kill each other yeah you did and then our manager said yeah but you'd make a lot of money and i was like that's why and then ryan the owner of the whole company went on like a 20-minute rant about how podcasts are like the new thing that they want to do but that's what that means like a whole team of people to do the podcast and then you guys all tried to convince me that i'd have to do nothing for it and i would just show up and just roll and that ended up being only a little true that's mostly your own fault to be fair i mean i got look man i have you have a brand and i have a brand and my brand is doing stuff like over the top yeah and making things look nice talking about waiting for the pushback because he's wanted to do remote for this the whole time i'm trying to do as little work as possible i feel like when you said that would you say i would kill you or you would kill me i feel like it was you worried that you would get sick of me very quick yesterday i said i'm gonna kill you and you took like offense to it did i you got like offended and and then like i did something else and then i came back and you're like that'd be really bad if you wanted to kill me i was like what and you were like you said you wanted to kill me i was like when did that happen like i moved on you tell me you hate me no is that you hate me i tell everybody that i hate them that's like my go-to when somebody tries to rib me with something i go i hate you and then i move on because it's like you ripped me i'm ripping you back i don't want to be hated i want you to love me you're a content creator on the internet it's just gonna happen true it's gonna be hate so okay so we are both nintendo youtubers yeah that's true am i rattling too much here 10 minutes into the podcast we'll finally get into what the title is should i take these off am i rattling you're good dude okay i'll just go like this a ride baby we're both nintendo youtubers we have a podcast where we just talk about everything nintendo um and this episode we want to talk about uh why we uh why we quit nintendo yes so so you first why why when you were working with nintendo did you decide to quit funny story uh i've never ever worked with name oh that is coming close uh you definitely did yeah i did a long time kind of i wasn't paid it was love hours that's the yeah listen as creators they just give you free stuff they tried to take my money how did that when they wanted to when they wanted me to not only be an ambassador but sign up to the program to actually use their footage and they would take a cut of my royalties that was the thing back in the day all the other game companies decided that uh if we used their gameplay footage and stuff that was free promotion for them so they were like cool with it but nintendo was like that's our ip we want a percentage of your of your ad revenue did you ever even consider signing up today so i don't really do game to be a nintendo gameplay something that my uh my viewers know very well and a lot of if you know that story already you might be thinking oh great we have to hear about this again i've actually i want to skim it but i think what i want to do and i told you is i actually have some horror stories yeah of working with nintendo one in particular that i've never told just out of like respect for nintendo yeah but i i mean we're here now may as well right do you want to hear it yes of course should we stop no i don't should i skip over let me skim over the situation right okay so nintendo had an ambassador program they still do yes i'm just not a part of it what is the ambassador program explain that i don't know i was on it for a long time i never really figured it out it's just nintendo gives you uh games early in hopes that you will it's it's kind of like you kind of represent the brand i guess you it is an official thing nintendo hires a company called golan who they reach out to influencers creators whatever and like hey do you want to be an ambassador and it's like a it's like a mini official thing you don't get like a certificate or anything it's the but you get to put it in your twitter bio and that's all that matters it's two it's very invasive i feel like compared to other companies like capcom has one and they're like you can be a capcom ambassador you don't have to put us in the twitter bio or anything just here's a game i think it's more that who would who would want to put that in there like fighting game guys or something ambassador for nintendo and capcom are two very different things right sorry to the capcom fan so you lost a good portion of our audience that's what i mean is that i've never seen another company that is so forward with their like ambassadors and makes them do certain things it is like very ideal they're very strict about it i wonder why they decided that was even a good idea because it's tying their brand to creators but that's why they're they're so picky about who they pick that's why they dropped me twice right and why they got rid of me do you want to tell that story i guess i should because that's that's they've probably heard your story before but uh real quick uh i applied back in like 2018 or something when my channel was like doing pretty good because i had friends who were also taking off and and they uh they applied um and i was like sure i'll do it and i got rejected i got a nice little rejection email i was like that's weird why the hell would they do that that doesn't make any sense and then i i looked at i was scrolling they said that they just looked at my social media and stuff oh that's what did it so i i looked through my instagram and one of my most recent pictures was me dressed up as mario giving the middle finger and i think it says hey [ __ ] are you like under interesting you couldn't have any worse affordable so that might have been what did be it i applied i think a whole year later and they rejected me again but in hindsight i honestly don't think that's what did it i think what did it and i thought about this after you got rejected or after you got kicked off i think it's because i talk about emulators and now i do very frequently yeah they don't like that they really don't i did not like that because when when i when i brought up the whole middle finger mario thing uh but our other friends like aj fanatics four oh i'm sorry redirect he's got a new channel now okay he's not plugged other podcasts oh he's in the first ten minutes of our party uh go watch go listen to that directly to you it's on itunes oh great so he said it probably isn't the the the middle finger or the fact that i say ass a lot in my videos it's probably uh because i did emulator stuff he said other channels can get away with cursing every once in a while but also like i feel like my vibe is just not the nintendo but i feel like i kind of lean into the the [ __ ] niche a little too much to cycle back around i think this is a good point because people might be wondering already if they watch both of us how this is going to work because everything i've ever done is family friendly i am a family friendly content creator and as you just said password as you just said [ __ ] that's how it's going to work this side of the room just oh nice family friendly buddies nintendo that side of the room i can't speak for it to be honest i don't know what's going to come out of that mouth so you that's another thing i i don't curse in my i mean i curse in my videos but i bleep them so when people watch my live streams and stuff they go i can't believe he curses so much and it's like you just hear me in the videos i rage you on twitch all the time and i it's really hard it's as soon as you get rated it's just i can't even say it because i am not like you i'm usually i can turn it off during podcasts i try to tone it down on this but i had to say what i said at all turn it down i had to say what i said as mario it's part of the story uh so why did you get kicked out oh god that's a point of contention and the thing is can i you give me your thing i'm i'm definitive in my theory i think i have the perfect theory so you got kicked out right after you did the breath of the wild hacks go on but like a week before that go on we did we did we did a video on your channel of uh a multiplayer rom hack yeah uh operating time yeah that that flaw under the radar for a lot of people didn't realize yeah we did a hack of that and then a week later i did a emulator video and i think maybe nintendo saw the hack and they were like that's his last chance yeah that was like that was like that's how they're [ __ ] on the bus straw and then as soon as i hit the breath of the wild it was just he's gone he's out of here that's what i think did you win um yeah no i mean i talked about it a bunch but i obviously worked with them for like three years as an ambassador and then they dropped me i do think that was a part of it i think a lot of things was part of it you know i talk about mental health a lot i have videos with me like crying about that i have can't possibly be a problem they're not that specifically but it's the overarching thing of i'm very much wood i'm very much a giant personality that talks about whatever is in my heart at the time and i think all of it is part of like when they're saying this guy is an ambassador for us but this guy also just talks about everything and anything i think that becomes risky like maybe like oh that's fine but what else could he do right and i think that all played a part in that but as i said a bunch of times i think it ended up being the best thing because now i'm just carefree and i can do whatever i want yeah like do a podcast with you and not worry about nintendo launching and being like wait we rejected that guy twice yes absolutely i've had other moments with nintendo like uh i went to pax east they have a big presence at pax east and i always have appointments with game companies to like check out their games and stuff but nintendo is the one that i need to do the most for my channel because the one most people are interested in and the last few packs eases pre-pandemic they were showing off new games and stuff and they had like it was like a mini e3 for them uh and i could not for the life of me get into their frickin booth they had like you know like uh like a little desk and you can like sign up with um i'm a media could i like i have such a good story today and they're like they're like no you can't we got no appointments for you so what i ended up doing was again i don't want to throw him under the bus i'll do it because i'm about to well aj no he really helped not him he uh i just stood behind him with my camera like oh like i'm filming him and then i just started playing the games and filming myself that's smart i mean i felt dim too but i also filmed myself so i snuck in and i started playing oh you're supposed to play one game i'm like playing all of them and then i got to freaking uh uh travis strikes again or whatever oh yeah that game sucked that game was very bad and i've never played uh uh no more heroes games before uh uh and then after i was finished playing they're like great you get to interview uh suda51 and i was like who's that oh what i love pseudo51 and then i saw him and i was like oh i know who he is i don't have any questions i just want to say i'm a uh i i'm a fan and then i took a picture with him and then i was like wait so you did an interview and there's no video with it i had nothing to say i had i was what was going to say why is your game garbage i gotta say yeah i mean i wasn't i didn't i wasn't there with him in person but uh they sent me that game to review and i was like i'm a huge super 51 fan i told the guy that sent me the game key i was like thank you i'm a huge fan i can't wait and he was even like yeah we only sent these out to a few people shooters really looking forward to the feedback and like i'm a huge sort of 51 fan i played all these games and i started playing the game right away and i went this is so bad i i don't i don't know if i even reviewed it in the end and i got follow-up email like hey what did you think of the game and i was like i haven't got around to playing it yet okay i'll get to it soon tell studio what's happening i i had to talk to him through her translator and the translator was like offended i didn't want to do an interview he was like what i don't understand i was like i just want a picture with him well now you wouldn't have to use a translator because you speak fluent japanese hi no anything else there you go uh sumimasen yeah uh hi yeah thank you what's another one we learned kim we had five days that's fine okay moving on so speaking about let me tell that story um because you mentioned the go on a pax thing and then whatever so the worst thing that happened when i was working with nintendo and i said they didn't do anything for me and they really didn't they really don't for a lot of it they don't they don't they don't even give games early anymore because people leak them and stuff and that's really all they do by the way when you're an ambassador representing the band and europe you're a part of them all they do is send you the occasional game key i mean that's what they did to me it's not a huge and with like minecraft dungeons they sent it like three days after the game came out and they were like sorry that's the worst because it's like i already bought it i needed i know i needed to maybe what's even worse than that is because when you've accepted that they're sending you the key from then on on no matter what you post anywhere online tweets facebook instagram youtube videos you have to have hashtag free game you have so when they said they were sending me minecraft dungeons on switch i i was like okay i'm gonna stream it make videos but they didn't send it right away so i went and bought the game and then i like i was streaming it on twitch and the next day they were like we're gonna get you that code tomorrow we saw that you streamed it yesterday and you said that you have to put hashtag free game and i'm like but you i i take it back then i paid for it that would make me so mad but i'd already signed the thing to say that i would do it so i had to free game something that i bought yeah no that's not that's not how that should work that's how it works i would say take that back i paid for it it's not a free game i'm lying now to my audience but the other thing is uh okay so e3 what e3 would they have been showing breath of the wild 2016. i want to say yes seriously so they reached out to me 2016 nintendo and gotland and they were like do you want to go to e3 and i was like yes that is sick and like back then so you have to remember i had like a couple thousand subs i just started working with them this was like the coolest thing i was like yes please um so i i road tripped like 25 hours to get there with like 200 bucks in my pocket i get to the e3 event and i'm lining up to get my badge and i'm like going over to like what it's been a long time ago but wherever they would hand out like the press badges and i like give them my name and they're like you're not on the list and i'm like sorry and like not like nothing not on the list not under nintendo not under anything so i'm emailing my contact at golan because i have no phone numbers or anything so i'm emailing my contact out the front after a couple hours because they're in the contact is in the building by the way right i finally get a reply and they're like oh say that this person said it's okay or blah blah blah i said i showed them the email and they're like okay take this badge the badge they gave me was general admission right because that was like the first year or the second year they were letting anyone in and not just like you didn't just media or whatever e3 is really for media it's for people to go people are demoing their games but they don't want joe schmoe to be playing that first year where they let it open to the public was the worst year for the public because it was not set up that way and that's where i went yeah because nobody when you go in with a general admission badge to something like that no one wants to talk to you i mean i'm walking around with my camera and i'm like can i play the game and they like literally people were just saying no you can't play and you were there to represent nintendo yes and you couldn't do that because you had a general admission i couldn't play any i couldn't talk no one wanted to look at me like i was having a terrible time like i'm there on the floor and i can't interact with anything but the worst part is the only game they brought was zelda the only game nintendo bought without it they had this giant like structure for it they built this massive dome that had all these figures you could play the game that was like line up and blah blah blah the only way you could get in is with a media badge or higher so i didn't have so they were there and that you they wouldn't let you play their game the only thing they brought to the e3 i wasn't allowed to interact with whatsoever and the only reason why i actually did manage to get in was because i went with metal jesus rocks and he happened to know the guy that was in charge of the line to get in and he snuck us in that's ridiculous i was so upset and by the way mission also uh no he he got in through another company he's been a big channel for a long time but and here's another thing that sucked too and i've never i think i've told that story briefly maybe on a live stream or something nothing something i never said was the contact i had at golan was at the convention right yeah yeah they just wouldn't talk to me the whole i'm not making this up right like i was emailing i couldn't get a reply but and i i don't want to but juror you know the completionist yeah he worked as an ambassador probably might still do i don't know but he was friends with them because he was a big channel at the time he was working with them so they were walking the floor the whole time i had gerard's number and i was messaging him like hey can you get her to meet me out front can you get her to help me like can you figure out this badge situation and he was like very nicely being like oh yeah i'll see and like putting it off and i have a feeling he was actually asking her they wanted nothing to do with me they couldn't care less there was one point she walked right by me with him and i was like and they just didn't why invite you i don't know that's absolutely ridiculous but that's what i mean like when that when i eventually got that that message or whatever the email they sent me saying i was dropped it's like okay you know like i've had this like that happened and you never send me games and now you're like i just don't wanna just buy i had a similar e3 story with uh bandai namco namco bandai i'm dyslexic i get it flip-flopped doesn't matter uh they it was the first year i couldn't get a media badge for uh e3 for whatever reason but they were like hey uh we'll give you we'll give you a badge and it was uh general admission yeah i think so and uh we couldn't even get into the convention with cameras or anything and it's like i'm here with a company a general admission badge generally admit you to to the convention so i wasn't able to get in because i had a camera with an interchangeable lens my camera was this big and the lens was like this big my brother brought a whole ass camcorder with a rode uh like like like mic shotgun mic and they're like come on oh wow because it was an interchangeable lens so he was totally fine why does that matter i don't know that i hate e3 and the second day we went they were like no bags and i was like i checked mine's within the constraints like no bags anymore i was like what do you mean anymore they're like since you got out of the uber no bags in case there's like extra lenses in the bag so i just i just went to different security lines until one of them just didn't care and i just got in with my pick so it was they made it such a pain in the ass to film e3 and i told bandai i was like you know you gave me this general mission badge i'm here to cover your stuff and i can't even do that and they're like okay whatever e3 sucks e3 is horrible so glad it's ruined and coming back that i get that question all the time like how do you feel about e3 like are you upset about it you're so happy i'm glad they were the worst i i got worse and worse and worse i watched e3 my whole life like i think i started watching very early on and the dream was always to go yeah and then you go and you're like this yeah obviously nintendo put an extra spin of salt on that to make the whole experience a lot worse for me but even when i was on the floor and looking around i was like okay this is fine and when you go to e3 too you don't get to sit and watch all the reveals and yeah like i don't know if you people realize that but that the thing you happens before the convention yeah that big live stream where everyone sat there like reacting to xbox and bethesda with mobile phone games you don't get to do that when you're there and you miss it when you're there yeah so you're better off just staying at home yeah and you i mean that's gone there were a lot of times where i was sitting on the floor like editing something like in the corner and i'm like why did i come here i could i could have done this all from home gotten probably more views than when i'm doing here busting my ass to be fair we just hate going outside though i feel like we we went into this podcast we went in with a lot of energy with a lot of energy but like we we went in with all the all the nintendo information and we barely talked we didn't talk about the button okay what would you like to say about the button why do we have a button on top of the tv i feel like that we're jumping all over but as we said with this half being the nice half i know at some point you're gonna say something that's too far don't don't give me a reason [Laughter] i feel like you're gonna you're gonna make it so that people are gonna expect something to come from this end i feel like at some point you are going to end up saying something as you often do that's going to make me cringe so we have the same manager yeah why won't you take roman as a sponsor what's wrong with that come on so whenever bob says anything that might make me feel somewhat uncomfortable or crosses the line i'm gonna hit this red button 52 of men have the problem i'm not one i'm i'm in the 48. you you someday statistically it'll happen to you are you in that statistic no i'm good baby is that what you say is that is that what you say in the sponsor yeah i say i'm one of the problems by the way i don't have this problem but if you do the thing is you can't get a sample of it until you talk to like uh you have to like talk to the doctor like through have you taken it no i can't because i have to like talk to a doctor and someone lie to the doctor and say that i have a problem so what do you say in the sponsor spots 52 of men have a problem a sex problem do you does does a good portion of your audience think that you have a sex problem my audience every time they see one of my videos where i have a wacky ad like that they're like what the hell about i thought i was coming in here to see what the newest coolest emulator was and now i'm being talked to about bonus how do you rationalize that what what made you accept that sponsor my audience i think less than two percent is under 18. okay so i was like i mean this is a problem people have okay you know if i can help you know a small portion of my audience why not it couldn't be me not something to be embarrassed about i'm not embarrassed because i mean we don't gotta be embarrassed to talk about it some people got problems what is the problem it's a penis problem you can't get you can't it doesn't like adults don't do the thing like the 52 percent is at all yeah well it just doesn't you know it's just like this and it's not like that this is good for positives you know what i'm doing is it supposed to be every every once in a while you want it this is no good when you want it to be and if you can't do it just take a pill and you're good how much is the pit i don't know even they don't even i don't even make me say it in the read i don't believe that 52 percent all right go do the statistic i don't know it's on the page we'll talk about it later we'll talk about it like cut that cut that cut that cuddle where do we go from here i don't know you know we uh we didn't really discuss what we would talk about after the quitting nintendo thing so we why did we decide to talk about quitting nintendo let's talk about that i thought we weren't going to address that why not we have to we don't have to we literally you literally said you didn't want to no that's not what that no we that was about something else now you're backtracking okay we don't have to let's talk about it okay so we we decided to name this podcast uh why we quit nintendo because we thought it was really funny to absolutely steal kitten krista's first episode yeah your idea to be fair i said it as a joke and then you were like i loved it immediately just like the name was your idea so the original name was the official non-tendo podcast we should definitely tell this story and uh we uh were advised not to do that the actual lawyers told us not to put the official nintendo podcast what's your tm at the end the joke is obviously that it is the official non-tendo podcast it is the it this is that yeah but we were told not to because for some reason calling it the official nintendo podcast could be breaching copyright laws and lines whereas just straight up calling it the nintendo podcast is fine yeah that's fine this is skirting around it a little bit we also had some logo iterations that were just straight up the nintendo logo i liked those ones but uh yeah this i felt like was a little more uh open but i mean it's still pretty obvious what's going on here but again like obviously uh we're not affiliated with them in any way because we already talked for a whole podcast about why we're not we were or you were at some point unless i've come close pokemon company is pretty good to me i'm just saying nintendo this o here we could make this an eye just saying nintendo you guys are missing a whole podcast now you guys need you guys need some extra dudes if you like what we can do i can stop saying ass if you like everything you've seen so far nintendo message me we'll figure it out i'll come back um not golden though we don't want anything i don't want anything to do with golan i will not stop talking about emulators though i have a thing with people like putting in their twitter bio like uh like nintendo ambassador or the worst is when they say their sub count in their twitter bio it's like why i don't think people are following you because they already know right that is true i don't think i ever put ambassador in my twitter buyer i don't think i had enough room because i got a cram like satisfy and gfuel so that's another thing i really hate when sponsors are like you got to do this or usually it's like it's like a chair we'll send you the chair but the twitter bio you gotta put our thing it's like for a chair what's your twitter bio right now it's it's just like haha gotcha or something i mean i made a tweet the other day i was like made my twitter bio a little more professional and i was like haha god you idiot mine yeah my instinct god i'm such a sellout mine is like all sponsor stuff just no minecraft mine just links to all i would put sponsor stuff in my in the name of my twitter name if i could they but they that's that's like if you had a website with a lot of traffic and you had an ad in it there that's an ad space you don't sell that for a chair you sell that for money money g fuel's like put our name in your twitter bio like okay how much true they do pay me for it yeah but ambassador i don't think i ever put ambassador well you look at people you look at all the content crews you look at their twitter bio you can tell like okay that dude is just is just selling out his twitter i also want to say that with the ambassador thing i feel like often nintendo uh has small channels being ambassador that's that's not that not that i want to use the word small but it does seem like no they're very picky and they pick people who represent their brand well regardless of how many subs they have 100 yeah and i feel like they'd rather cast a wide net than have a couple of channels that are really big and a lot of them are growing channels yes which is a better word than small that is better for the small you i feel like you had a lot of eyes on you so like uh the smaller channels of the growing channels that that are nintendo ambassadors uh i feel like they don't pay much attention to them they're just like they're just like you seem like you have a cool vibe here's a free game make sure you say free game uh and then you say free game safe and everything like here's your game say free game we're gonna watch you and make sure you don't talk about emulators or say ass too much oh yeah and they gave me a cease and desist one she should just hit your mic almost threw up that that's trauma for me saying cease and desist hold on let me finish my thought though the growing channels i understand when they put ambassador in the twitter bio because it's it's pride you know it's like i've made i've done something i'm making it you know i've been noticed it feels like they're saying look i have merit nintendo says so yeah that's what it feels like that's why i don't like that it's cool though it is cool it was a cool feeling getting to work with them so like i get it i do get it also we could talk about uh remember that controversy a few weeks ago with artesian builds the see the pc company we can let's stay on topic though i just want to say that a lot of twitch streamers had that company in their body oh yeah oh that is relatable that they made no money from having that there it was just like all these twitch streamers think it's like a clout thing to be sponsored by a by a piece i had never heard of artesian builds they hit me up and it offered me like a hundred dollars off an 8 000 computer i was like what did you take it i was like are you guys crazy why would i give you seven thousand nine hundred dollars for for to sponsor you get out of here that doesn't make any sense it doesn't make any sense it's ridiculous i would want at least two hundred dollars i uh i was gonna say um i don't know if i should say who it was i had somebody who i love dearly reach out to me after my last video talking about because i've made like four talking about the nintendo ambassador program and so in my last video i mentioned how and i do want to address this i mentioned how i was like i wasn't a goody goody two-shoes nintendo youtuber who would just do or say anything that nintendo wants me to say and i had an ambassador reach out to me who i'm friends with and they were like is that is that what you think about me is that i know is that how you feel about me and i felt so bad like my heart but why would they think that because i i you were an ambassador because i well it's yeah but no it's because in the video i painted and i accidentally painted um ambassadors to be goody two shoes who say and do anything nintendo wants and because i didn't do that i got fired the problem is there are some that are like absolutely off but not all of them but there are some that that just feel like like they're not doing anything towards the nintendo brand they're just guys who got lucky and nintendo decided yeah you're good you do sometimes i see channels and people who get sent like 17 switches a week early before launch and i'm like how god i'm so happy like i wouldn't i wouldn't consider like the completionist to be like a goody two-shoes guy but it seems like nintendo like gives them a bunch of stuff they're just very selective i've always been jealous of the completionist's relationship with nintendo like he's got pictures like with reggie and miyamoto where they're just like chilling yeah there's one picture like he was so early youtube true he and i mean we we we're big fans of him i like it i love him i like his videos and i've been making a really long time so back in the day doing like crushing like youtube gaming content uh of course nintendo was in on that but now i feel like they've removed themselves from creators like that yeah yeah yeah but no that's not how i felt or feel about all nintendo ambassadors and obviously some yes but obviously some yeah obviously some yes you suck do better make an emulator who do we hate oh do you actually want to no okay but no obviously a lot of them are really really nice awesome people that are doing their best there's no we got no grudge against them no no no no no almost no grudge with almost not everyone it's mostly just how nintendo handles their ambassador program which is really bizarre and weird yeah and i'm just butt hurt that i don't have free stuff it wasn't that good what wasn't that good getting the free stuff other ambassadors got sent little care packages and stuff too sometimes like yeah some people would get like crazy stuff yeah and i want to name names but i'm not going to miss click got like a big one thank you she got like a big old something before i saw her get some like whoa that's awesome that was exactly who i was thinking what did she get like recently everything's awesome everything all right cool kirby stuff but it was like right before that she got something i was like oh my god i know and arlo what are some games let's just start listing nintendo youtubers arlo gets stuff all the time like that pc he's a puppet he's a puppet so i mean there's a lot of plausible diabetes right he's not a real person well look we get free stuff from other companies so i don't want to like you know be salty oh no yeah i definitely get i think that these people who get the free stuff deserve it i'm not yeah most of them 100 yeah it's just cool stuff and i'm like damn there was a short period of time where the pokemon company gave me some free stuff and i was like oh my god thank you so much they're sending me stuff now it's weird because i talk a lot about emulators and there's always pokemon stuff on there but they don't seem to care for some reason well like when i get i don't know like when i did the breath of the wild video i did like pokemon mods in there and stuff but like i when they started reaching out because they're actually trying to build a relationship with me now they're great and when they start i got falling off with them they haven't talked to me when they started reaching out i was like do they know do they know about everything that happened they don't seem to care do i bring it up what if nintendo finds out will they be mad i don't know but i get free pokemon cards now yeah i did for a short period of time i just gave them to people because i didn't i don't know that's probably why they stopped sending you pokemon cards i mean i open them like on stream and stuff but um that's probably not what they want they want like a whole ass youtube video for it that didn't want anything from me i did like social media content whenever they sent me something they sent me a whole box with like figures and toys and pokeballs and all the coolest thing i ever got was uh the shirt the custom shirts they make now we're just bragging yeah i was just sat here writing about all the freaks this podcast this episode was supposed to be about how we stopped working with nintendo we can talk about how we work with other companies that are related to nintendo true what's wrong with that we're on topic what who else do you work with that's it really yeah and like otherwise he likes i almost started a relationship with playstation but i don't know what happened there what happened i actually don't even like the playstation 5. so i feel like that might have something to do with it that's like the that's like my least favorite car yeah you're always on xbox like when scoot and i are playing games and we're like you should come play like valerian and you're like no i'm too busy and then we see you come on because like you pop on xbox like you're like call a dude abuser right now like i'm freaking working on stuff and then and then like i signed on to xbox play my girlfriend for like 30 minutes and you're like oh my god you said you couldn't play with me it's valor and wednesdays and you say you're busy or busy playing i got you to start playing valorent that's true i'm just gonna go back in time and slap myself in the face and be like i have spent kim don't listen i have spent too much money on valerian in a very short amount of time i spent 100 that one day and i was and you were making fun of me yeah the first time we played you were just you wanted to buy one skin one ten dollar skin and you were like i gotta get some credits and you're like yeah the hundred i'll use it i'll use it yeah i've spent maybe like and grant i've been playing for like a week i've spent maybe 40 bucks okay once on skins i mean i spent around that but i have credits now for my stuff all this battle pass is gonna be over soon we gotta grind a little bit we have been well now we're done with the podcast stuff i got time now maybe on sunday i got this one gun that when i get the final kill in a round like a big black hole like takes over the whole screen and like a galaxy comes up i want the comic book one really bad that one is good so if you've never played valorant the uh the the store front is different for everybody and it changes very frequently so you just have to hope that the the gun that you want is in the storefront i keep waiting for a knife to be in the storefront so i can get a cool knife i do want a knife because you do pull out the knife a lot and the knifes are really cool you ever spend uh you spent did you spend a lot of money in pokemon unite that's another free-to-play game moving on i i was going to talk about how you work with a pokemon company even though you made a video crapping all over pokemon that was another thing i was like i hope i hope they don't see that because and here's another story pokemon unite did a thing with with screenwave on network and they were getting a bunch of creators to do the pokemon unite mobile thing and they pitched me like screenwave pitched me to them and they said no they were like no we don't think he'd be a good fit and the only reason i can imagine i wouldn't be a good fit is because the day the game came out i made a video putting it on blast about it being paid to win i had a lot you had a lot of people were arguing with you about that and i don't understand how you could ever look at that game and see the argument you have and say that it's not pay to win no you're dumb i had the jackson over here off camera he's the one who said that it's not pay to win and i was like but then blah blah blah and you're like yeah and i'm like but then blah blah blah and you're like yeah and i was like so it and you're like okay yeah okay i see it you're annoying i was told the microphone wasn't close enough to my mouth you gotta eat it but i can't move it any higher the sm sit up okay the sm7b baby you got to eat this thing i didn't i didn't spend that much good a little bit look at me look at me this is how you got to do it what might yeah but look it's right leave it all right you're good you'll be all right we'll fix the next podcast i didn't spend that much money i actually didn't spend that much money at pokemon oh no i did because i maxed out for the video yeah a lot but that wasn't enjoyable most people who are that into pokemon united are spending a lot because they keep releasing uh pokemon they're like a lot of money that wasn't joyful buying though that was now i'm so focused on this michael just it'll it'll sound good in post when the screen wave people work their magic because they're great but yes that video was a hundred percent accurate i do not see how you cannot find that game to be paid to win although apparently they have patched it a lot to make it better right but it's still pay to win yeah no i agree i played it i wonder if pokemon has seen that video absolutely the people who wanted to sponsor the pokemon unite stuff absolutely looked at you but that was probably pokemon united was like oh i don't know about that i was going to say that's probably 10 cent there might be nothing and pokemon well honestly pokemon company probably watched my video and went yeah true though true though let's give this guy free stuff 100 how about we shout out our patreon okay what is it then which people it's a patreon where if you want a bonus episode every week wow as well as behind the scenes i decided that i filmed while i was uh waiting for this podcast to start you can go to patreon.com forward slash nintendo podcast hopefully we can get that url i don't know if that's even how patreon works they'll be like i don't know either you could see it'll be somewhere uh but yeah we're hoping to uh do a lot more content for for our special little supporters because we have a lot of people you know that hang out on our twitch chats and stuff people who like to support us a lot and i feel like they'd appreciate that do you think we have a lot of crossovers do you think this what we've done so far today is worth paying for uh well we haven't actually done the patreon content yet that's true i'm not sure but there's a three dollar tier where they just it's just general support is this is this worth three dollars listen man here's what i always tell even my supporters on twitch if you are deciding whether or not to support me or buying yourself a coffee the next day for the love of god get yourself a freaking coffee or like you know you got to make sure you can eat spend money on you first but if you're like freaking the monopoly man and you're just throwing money around three dollars man that's great nothing also this is free content for 99 of people do you need coffee yes do you need to eat it's one of the joys of life that's true yeah we had an hour yet i don't know what are you getting bored little okay we could just leave no i don't want to okay you want to play uh it's not plugged in zelda's mask it's not plugged in at all mario 48. do you want to get into a debate about what's better out of his elderly 64 000 zelda 100 so zell okay so i only recently played through uh ocarina of time like i like last year i you can't do it you can't you can't judge it now i played it when i was a kid well clearly you didn't because i played it once again it came out and i said this game sucks i don't like rolling around this field i don't know what to do so then i played it again on the 3ds and i was like i thought i quit like pretty early playing the game i looked at that uh thing nintendo had like when they decided the 3ds eshop was going to shut down they showed you your statistic of what you played i spent 20 hours on on ocarina of time for the 3ds so i had a pretty decent amount of time in there so i played through the game recently and no that game's not good but i'll say if i would i could understand being there in 1998 i think this was on the game came out and like play sitting there legs crossed playing the game just running around exploring the world you like you like hit a rock and then a whole dungeon appears like that stuff is probably really cool to experience but these days you i mean you just get that in like every game right yeah but you can't judge it based on these i absolutely can because mario can't before it feels good just moving in the game it does just moving around you're like i don't think so i don't believe so i i would say i am the opposite where i didn't play mario 64 until a few years ago and it's tough it's tough so i used to defend mario sunshine a lot i'm like yes i was like look man mario sunshine gets a bad rap it's one of the worst 3d mario games but all the 3d mario games are awesome so just because it's one of the worst doesn't mean it's bad it's still great then i played through that when they put it on the switch and i was like never mind this game is rough as hell but i still think mario 64 is better than that occurring in our time i feel like even at its time next to mario 64 if you'd played both on launch back in the day no brainer ocarina of time is the better game bigger more expansive dungeons storytelling cinematics atmosphere lighting zelda so that's the music the thing that would hook you on ocarina of time is the atmosphere 100 percent the thank you the things that you discovered i'm so glad you agree with me how walking because most of what you do in that game is just walking around and exploring but that just did not hook me and it never hooked me it felt like a like a truck have you played elden ring yet no i i don't think i would like it you would like it actually kind of the more i think about it the more i might think i like it but i i com i think you're completely out of your mind if you think that certain enemies or bosses can't one-hit kills how can i be out of my mind i see it all i see clips of it all i've finished the game and you haven't played it everybody that i talked to says that that happens except for you and jack bob is refusing to play elden ring because he thinks an enemy at some point might want to hit him i think that there's a lot of unfair stuff in the combat yeah and i also hate i also hate having to have to hit the a button you hit the a button then you're like yeah and then they do the attack if you're using like a great big heavy sword and you're not leveled enough to use it sure right i know you could do certain buildings there's like one look i played some other souls games like the magic the gathering not because the game's hard i just i just want it to be fair like when i play through like a really hard like mega man boss or something like i talk to dan about um he says that the elder ring bosses feel like that because like it's patented you have to yeah there's there's there's patterns that the bosses do and and you have to kind of die once or twice to figure out what the pattern is but in like these 2d games like mega man or any other games with like really cool really hard boss fights uh it doesn't feel like there's an unfair thing that you can't dodge or or get away from and that's just not something that i i see in like an elder ring i i see a lot of garbage happening in elven ring but you've never experienced it so how would you actually i've experienced it in the other souls games that okay now that is fair yeah that's why i don't that's right no outdoor is really fun and you should play it but then the more i see other people playing i'm like maybe i would like this you absolutely would yeah so i don't know i feel like it's too late now i'm like out of the zeitgeist it's been like three weeks that's how i am with games though i feel like if a game if i don't play the game immediately when it comes out i'm just never gonna i will say that horizon forbidden west feels like it came out like five years ago at this point already that came out at the worst time it did did they they must have the first one the first one came out when when uh breath of the wild came out they have to do it like like we're gonna put our game out and it we're gonna put it right before another big game so that if it doesn't do well or people say that it sucks we'll be like well it was just bad timing why else would you i would at least delay it till after elden ring yeah like two day like like like a week right that's the best at least another one that got screwed like that was do you remember titanfall 2 yeah i loved that game that was an amazing game it came out in between battlefield and call of duty i think it was so much better than those yeah i know the story mode was sick it was incredible it was one of the like the most revolutionary shooters i saw my first ever bodega cat today oh my god i didn't tell you sorry if that was kind of a jarring transition what happened right now right near the airbnb that we're staying in it feels like like a weird like whimsical twitter thing when you see pictures of bodega cats and stuff but they legit are in like almost everybody i only learned about it when i was playing spider-man recently okay because there's like a whole mission around a bodega cat and i swear we saw that exact orange cat today it was in like a smoke shop it was just it was well it wasn't smoking oh i didn't assume that it seemed like you did no i just why would you be in a smoke shop it's the person that owned the the cat wasn't running the smoke shop no why was it you know a smoke shop oh i walked past a smoke show all right to get to a sandwich i was walking my dog the other day and uh he does this thing where like he will dart at like food on the ground and if you don't realize how much like chicken wings like just bones are just all over the floor like in the city until you have a dog and you're walking specifically chicken wing yes chicken wings are really bad for if they're cooked they're bad for dogs because they can get stuck in their throat i have a terrible story about that that i won't tell okay well i'm walking him it's my roommate's dog it's not my dog but it's like the same thing i'm walking him and he does that dart thing and i yank him because i don't want him to eat whatever's on the ground and it was because he's we were walking by a bodega door was wide open and the cat was at the it's like a busy new york city street the cat is just at the at the edge of the little bodega threshold and the dog darts at him i yank him and the dog gets an inch away from the cat's face and the cat's like oh my god that cat almost died that day i don't as a cat owner i don't understand cats that don't bolt for the door as soon as you open it is not all your cats well actually logan doesn't do that when you open okay so in our house when you open a front door logan will run hiding under the bed just in case anybody walks through the door and simon will do his best to trip you up and push past you and bolt out of the house because he hates us and just wants to be as far away from us as possible so whenever i see like the bodega cats or there was a cat on the street as i was walking by the other day there was a garage of a house open and a cat was just sat on the car like looking out of the garage like my cat would be gone yeah so when i see these bodega cats i'm like how are you not losing them although i did pass a bodega that said lost cat oh no they really don't care like that that bodega the doors always open i was walking past the other day the cat walked into the street and walked back it's like how are you doing this it's a busy city street like do you love your cat because if you love your cats i feel like a lot of these bodega cats the cat just shows up like i don't think like they get the cat for the bodega i think the cat just appears like this this is where it is this is my smoke shop now i really love things around the vibe of new york though and things like that it's surreal seeing it in person like kim and i got sandwiches at the place across from the smoke shop and we were standing in there and as we were standing waiting for our sandwiches like this guy would come in and the guy running would be like sammy he said hey and then that guy would go in and the next guy would come great like hey greg and the whole time the guy's looking at us and like trying to figure i could tell he's like trying to figure us out i was feeling very judged and then when we paid for our food he was like you guys not from around here right i was like no but that's weird cause like i understand that there's like uh like regulars but like you're in a really busy city but that's what's crazy we went back there this morning to get water and while we were buying the water he goes you like those wraps and i was like yeah they look good that guy's good he even went yeah the one with bacon is nice like he knew he remembered what we ordered and everything that's awesome i know i like it a lot i don't like that if somebody says like if they recognize me from being in the store i will go to another store you told me that once i don't want to talk to anybody you said if you walk in and they're like do you want the usual you you have it i'm out so helpful because then you won't have to talk to them no that's the problem because what if you don't want the usual this used to happen to me at the dunkin donuts on long island i would go in there and they would always give me a caramel like latte frilly thing and it was it's too it got too sweet and i i i like aged out of it and he if there was a line he would make it for me before i got to the counter yeah which is like he's trying to be really nice and i appreciate it but i couldn't i i didn't want that it was funny when i worked at burger king or hungry jacks for me when i was like 14 there was this dude that would come in all the time and he would always order like a double bacon whopper with like extra onion like it was very specific there was like 10 things he came in every single day at the same time so i got to the point where i was there all the time like us guys were there all the time we would we would make his order as he walked in or even like at the time and i'm now realizing maybe he didn't want that anymore yeah and every time he came in he was looking bigger and bigger and bigger and he was probably thinking i wish i could quit these just a cheeseburger would be fantastic what if you were wrong and he was just eating it because he felt bad that you were making what if it was like a game like that whisper game where like one person tells someone this is the order this is the order and it got to the point where it became from no onions to extraordinary yeah he sat there eating his onion burger like i hate onions yeah that's probably what happened look it's like really nice when they do that stuff but like no like i don't i've always wanted to walk into a place and get the usual and have just be like you want the users i kind of like when they just like give you like an extra like hey like they know like you don't have to have that much correspondence you know like hey it's like oh what if what if you walked in they were like hey bobby how's the youtube i'm out i don't want that double expresso no cream all right love of god or like i gave you extra cinnamon today it's like i didn't want it though earlier the customers this guy does youtube and twitch.tv our friend passini who works with us a lot he will if i'm in public with him sometimes we'll walk into a store he'll go wolf den and i'm like shut up and one time somebody was like oh yeah i know i got i'm like i don't want you to do that anyway we've talked for a while that was good yeah that was good you're happy with that i'm very happy with how we did it are you actually yeah this came out pretty good okay i'm glad are you not what happened no there was a couple there was a couple points there where i looked at you like help me but i don't think you even noticed and you just kept talking okay good no i'm glad it's it's a weird sense of relief excitement i was really nervous to do this i was excited i don't know i'm not nervous i've been stressed as all hell trying to get stressed i've wanted to do this with you for so long and getting you to agree to it and then you just the whole plan and oh god what you said was you wanted to have little to no work to do if we did this you were to do nothing but rock up and film and then you decided to just go crazy with everything not look a lot of it i didn't think would take as much work as it did and uh there's also certain things that i feel like i need to look it's a it's a collaborative effort for sure we need to put a little you know we each need to put a little something i didn't want you to just do freaking everything well i feel like i've done nothing well now that's that's now is when you start doing stuff i got to start doing thumbnails but anyway you put in so much work and i just i wanted it to be good and worth your time and i i hope you liked this first episode you only get one first that's true this will be it needs to be worth their time true and hopefully all the stuff we

after the fifth one like right like it's gonna get better the fir immediately after the this one that you're watching now i was like we should have done this we should have talked about what we love about nintendo we didn't even mention like dumping on it what the podcast is or why we're doing it because we don't know it's true we don't know we know we mostly talk about nintendo stuff and we're just gonna you know fluff around that's true i guess it was a good representation of what people figure it out as we do it okay a little bit of light bickering and i saw all that if you liked it thank you that's it we just wanted to add that [Music] me [Music] you
