[@haruhirogrimgar6047]

@purificationthroughputrefaction To add emphasis to the sentence. It is extremely common for English speakers to add adjectives to make a sentence more dramatic or hyperbolic. I could totally rewrite this radically cool sentence to have just of half the totally tubular vocab by just cutting out the mega-awesome adjectives. Or: I could rewrite this sentence to have zero adjectives. They mean the same thing but one is more eccentric. If you want to be pedantic about "literally" and "figuratively" there are at least a million better comments or phrases to pick on about it.

Holy moly. I spontaneously remembered my blues clues game on an orange and purple gaming system. While watching a how to prepare wine for formal drinking. This is so surreal. Oh my god... the alphabet part... that gives me the chills. I loved the noises. I would just fail for the point of hearing. I remember the noises and colors and fun, but I don’t ever remember the things I “learned” but then again I read stalin in my free time... so I guess I wasn’t a normal kid. I was also a really dumb kid who couldn’t understand how to finish a lego game. Nor had the patience to do so(undiagnosed adhd). Once as a kid I completed the Star Wars one, but didn’t have the patience to try to collect everything. So I was always broke and couldn’t buy anything because I would get like 10k coins when a character costs like 100k when realistically anyone with more than five brain cells would get about 75k per level. Back the the games, I remember blues clues too loved the sounds, the marvel marvel one loved the sounds, and idk more but it’s too hazy and fuzzy. And honestly bruh, I might now be cognitively capable without it. Like I wouldn’t of even been able to get to 10% in more advanced games like that sponge bob game. But still keep in mind I practically couldn’t read when I should of. This is really too surreal. The colors are still very... nice... they are very colorful. And that sponge bob one I couldn’t figure it out. I just played the picture games. I also have dyslexia. But the colors are so nice. Their graphics are compelling. As if it’s a game some modern kid would wish they had. Like I see some of the things kids grow up now with and it’s so... gross. It’s just watching coco melon and other really capitalist hellscape things like tiktok.

[@KernelColonelCollardGreens]

Oh boy I remember this thing. This was actually the 2nd console that I ever had access to, the first being the LeapPad (not sure which one, apparently they made a few different ones which i had no idea about when i was a kid).

Alphabet Park, Scooby-Doo, Winnie The Pooh, Lion King, honestly if it Disney I prolly had it lol. We had this old VCR TV that used to be in my parents' room, but it somehow ended up in mine with the VSmile. I have this distinct memory of sitting on the side of my bed in this really soft sleeping bag playing Winnie The Pooh early in the morning. At some point, my mam came in with a plate of toast for me, and sat down with me to watch me play for a bit while I basically chatted away about it. I think Winnie The Pooh was a mild special interest game for me at the time, because I played through it so much I still remember the ending image of all of the characters eating a meal together lol. But yeah, I played this thing to death, and if it weren't for it, I don't think I would have my special interest in video games at all tbh. In a way, I can thank this little orange and purple brick for helping me decide a career path.

I'm genuinely concerned about Billy's mental health but at the same time, the deeper he sinks into madness, the funnier his videos get

Kind of sad that he didn't about the Winnie the Pooh game. I remember it being a pretty chill and calming game for me as a kid since I loved Winnie the Pooh a lot. It was really wholesome from what I can remember.

I used to have one of these with the portable version! I remembered just flipping the controls on the portable versions out of boredom when the battery was dead

The way he pronounces Descartes is.... interesting.

I absolutely loved the wall-e and Cinderella one (and alphabet Park) so much!

[@discretelyobvious]

This was legitimately my favourite gaming system as a kid. I remember being allowed to take it into the hospital to share with the kid next to me when I had one of my surgeries. It was so much fun.

These consoles haunt my local goodwills. I see them ALL the time.

[@PopStarAzena]

I owned one of these as a kid, I believe it’s currently at my uncles house, I loved that thing so much

[@francescamendoza336]

I remember playing this! Thanks for unlocking this specific memory of mine. I never owned it, but I used to visit my cousin a lot to borrow it.

[@nope6021]

Oh the obscure memories that are coming back just from the thumbnail. SOMEONE I knew had this. It may have been me, but at my dads house that I only went to on some weekends. Or it was my cousins, on my dads side. But I remember that weird controller and what pushing the buttons felt like.

[@BossSwagMaster]

That was my childhood game system before i could get a Wii 🎮

[@Sarah34523]

I played the Ariel and Dora game constantly... it all felt like a fever dream until I saw this gameplay. It has haunted me since like, 2005. I'm almost an adult now, and I feel like these were creepy, terrifying figments of my imagination.

@sarah34523 good comment, what i believe those are what's so called 16-bit graphic design what they like used for Sega Genesis or maybe Atari games. The whole world will never know about videos games give us little children nightmares, me i just love some of the games when i used to play, i just enjoyed spending fun time memories to play and rememeber those good days.

Easily one of the best videos you’ve ever made.
