Get 10% off (save up to $44!) your own authentic Japanese snack box from Bokksu using my link: bit.ly/2Q581oa and code GILLYTHEKID10 So have you ever tried out any "budget" eShop games?

[@averagebritishguy7082]

IDK if this is a thing in your neck of the woods, but over here you can get some Eshop games for absolutely free. The only one I can remember off the top of my head is an Angry Birds knockoff with rabbits instead of birds.

[@stanstanstan2597]

Yes, Mr. Gilly. I have. *traumatizing flashbacks*. By the way...Would you be interested in a video about rip-off games on mobile? I dunno if I’m s’posed to ask stuff like that or if it’s rude or something(I hope not) but a game called Super 3D Bear Adventure, a Banjo Kazooie knockoff, has piqued my interest in the subject.

The steampunk Bomberman game is five cents. It's like an oldie-time dime novel, but a game. That's clever.

[@tidepodpadthai2633]

Half of these look like something I'd see on Miniclip or the App Store in 2010

[@JohnDoe-wq5eu]

No arguments there.

[@yuurou7927]

Golfing over it. Yes it exists, so the home alone golf ball is a parody of a parody of a passive aggressive self parody.

[@KawaiiKing64]

If anything, I found Markiplier's rage in Golfing Over It funnier than when he played Getting Over It

[@Matthew_Klepadlo]

If you guys want a really good game, I recommend Aragami. It’s a Japanese-esce shadowy artistic game where you play as a spirit of vengeance. You sneak around and kill enemies not unlike the Batman Arkham games. I recommend it and it is AWESOME!!!

[@cnhnx]

Tenchu is closer game to compare to Aragami, it's probably the one that inspired Aragami.

[@Pupppeteer]

8:09 "ever wanted to fix a bus" ehhh sure lol.

[@igotboredokay.2023]

I think the story book game is made to be played on the right joycon, as if this is a game fir little children, a pair of joycon, and definitely not a pro controller, not protecting it, just giving some logic.

6:36 how do you make a game that is this simple, claim you will make DLC for it, and then DONT?

[@EngineerOfChaos]

I liked the concept of Void Space Racing. It's not often that we actually get a space game with more realistic feeling physics. It's too bad the novelty sort of wears off after the first race or two.

[@chaliceohearts4658]

2:55 Hmmmm... A game in which you fly around with terrible controls and you have to go through hoops within a set time limit to progress.... Where have I heard *that* before???

that was exactly my first thought

Cue the Superman 64 stock music because they couldn't use the John Williams theme

These switch videos you have made are awesome and this is why.....my teenage son also watches you and idolizes you so instead of asking for expensive games he wants to play what you play and see if he comes to the same conclusion about them!saves me a ton lol

[@ZeusTheIrritable]

I always get suckered into buying these games, and I almost never like them. I just can't get mad at a game I got for the change in my couch though.

[@DairunCates]

There's occasionally a real gem like Akane (which was 1 dollar during the last sale and is one of the best arcade actions games I've played in years).

[@therunawaykid6523]

I love the random mixture of things available the switch eshop I even saw an art app that lets you draw works of art on the switch

[@REzado63]

You should do one of these once a month dude. It's a big big help

[@stickee4045]

"Because I have a hard time passing up anything with matcha in it" So you're basically me but emo

[@chrisgonzalez3388]

You should check out “Astro Bears” it’s only 99 cents. It’s actually really fun, I play it with all my friends and they all genuinely enjoy it and use it to settle arguments

[@landofgrundo]

I forgot I downloaded it during Christmas for 99 cents but just used my gold points to get it for free, I'm going to go play it now, thanks!

[@Kingpinn02]

I was kind of hoping Gilly would talk about Anodyne since it’s on sale rn for 99 cents.

[@ShiroTori47]

"Because I have a hard time passing up anything with matcha in it." Dude, same.

I got Membrane for a quarter (on sale) and it's pretty good. Kind of reminds me of a slightly polished flash game.

I feel like these videos could be even longer and I would still sit through them. Very entertaining. I know editing these is probably a bitch and takes forever but longer videos would be hella dope

[@maxximumrockatansky7186]

If you like neat pixel games, look at Inside System's library! They aren't all dollar menu but they're cute and cheap usually. The dungeon crawler being my favorite; Dark Witch Story

[@ulvind]

As a speedrunner of Void Space Racing... Yeah, the game doesn't have much going for it, though once you get the hang of its (frustrating) controls it's not that bad actually. I bought it for a quid and I thin it's worth the quid I spent. But definitely not the 5 quid it's being at rn on the eShop. And there's some games that are way, waaaay worse than this that are up for a dollar. Looking at you, Real Drift Racing...

[@MythicMachina]

Yo, i was thinking, what if you did a video on indie games that people reccomend to you? Maybe some that flew a little bit under the radar? Mainly this is just an excuse for me to tell people to check out Wizard of Legend. It's super good, but never quite reached the popularity of something like Hollow Knight.

[@MrBonessss]

Agreed, found another little fun game Johnny did a couple of years back called Dust: An Elysian Tale. It's a fun Metroidvania-esque game with a 2D hack and slash combat.

[@MythicMachina]

@@MrBonessss to be fair, a lot of people know about Dust. I feel like a video about indie games with some popularity, but not enough to go mainstream would be cool. So games like Shovel Knight wouldn't be in it. Those games that you are like "hey, i think i might have heard of this before." 20XX is another good one. It's basically a rougelite megaman x

[@nnickplays9713]

@@MythicMachina Speaking of, A Robot Named Fight is a rougelite Super Metroid / Metrovania game. It's...quite good. You unlock more gear / upgrades as time goes on for future runs, it's pretty rad but it's quite hard at later points. And has a Little Brother Co-Op mode too, and I think a versus mode. It was worth every penny.
