PlayDate Console Review

[@2kmatty]

babe wake up tweeterman posted

[@deathrowskater72]

I remember watching you on my second gen iPod touch in 2008/2009. It is amazing that you still are posting videos. Always thought it was cool that you and I both worked at RadioShack. I always asked my district manager if he knew you because I lived by the palisades mall. Great upload!

[@-throat-]

Just got my PlayDate today. It's real' real' cool! Also, funny you mentioned that it looks like SpongeBob, because July 17-the date this video was recorded on according to 22:21-is actually his birthday!

[@theowlsofouterheaven]

You got me with the cracked screen. 😅 Thank you for reviewing this Ian! Been wanting one but they're pricey!

[@DarkStarRules]

2:21 I was about to say "ain't no way he made a 24 minute unboxing video/trying to fix the device video" lmao

[@NERDmNERDf]

You and me both got ours in at the same time I see.. based on your progress release week wise. I have a suspicion those first 10,000 units were all sent to major content creators and other reviewers…. Hope you got yourself a analogue pocket too! Love to see a video on that.

[@TweeterMan287]

Whoof, the Analogue Pocket is way beyond what my pockets can afford right now! Plus, I already have my childhood GBC with a backlit screen and a flash cart, so I'm pretty good already!

[@bland9876]

Wasn't it called gravitar on the 2600 where you had to fly around with gravity and shoot all the enemies? That game needs a remake.

[@koopa1248]

Oh yeah it’s tweeterman time

[@bland9876]

Is anyone else being reminded of wario ware and game and watch gallery 4?

[@chrish4317]

I’ve watched you and have been subscribed for 8-10 years now!!!!

[@JetteroHeller83]

Crazy Gravity looks like an early build of a game that I purchased from the catalog called Gravity Express. For Gravity Express, I'd recommend docking the crank. You can then use the playdates accelerometer to direct the ship. It works surprisingly well.

[@Lachlant1984]

That screen, it's so reflective and the image is so clear and crisp, I can see why you wish it had a backlight, but if you play it under good lighting it'll look fantastic.

[@travisburkley23]

God I love that you still post man I remember studying your stacker videos like everyday after school and now I've been at high school for like 5 years that's crazy

[@ThatOneAudioGuy]

I think it's been 10 or 11 years since I started watching and I find it fascinating that the video structure hasn't changed at all. Flashback to the golden age of KZbin.

[@supersonicgaming6718]

Watching this in lower quality fits with the nostalgia value in your case considering i been watching u for 10+yrs

[@damantioworks]

Man same, been watching since 2012

[@supersonicgaming6718]

@@damantioworks makes me happy he still makes videos even today

[@Pridetoons]

The Legend returns!

[@wyatttheskid]

It’s nice to hear from you

[@pikabluebear9941]

18:12 Well played.

[@Goldmight]

I still think 180 is way too much for this. Considering something like switch lite at 250.

[@1fareast14]

Figured you'd be into this. I would be too if it was cheaper, seems like a solid 5-10 hours of fun, but not at that price. Gotta celebrate a hardware gimmick when you see one :)

[@DragonHeartHisMajestyX]

New TweeterMan video?! (opens the video so fast that I cause a ripple through space and time)

[@davoid96]

Nice footage of you cranking it

[@TheIrkenEmpire420]

What the Tiger Game Com's screen and graphics could've been

[@NifTy-8w8w]

Wow good seeing you again

[@pokemonbakuganrock]

Throwback ! It’s like I’m back in middle school, thanks for posting man !

[@user-lt2rw5nr9s]

I know Teenage Engineering from their Pocket Operators and other music gear. What a surprise hearing them involved.

[@john_toss]

I thought you “broke” your block of cheese when I saw the cracked screen lol. Great video as always. I’ve been watching you since 2011

[@MorganNye]

Happy 33rd birthday to you Ian!!!

[@FriendlyNeighborhoodNerd]

If I get one months or years into the future when there is a season 2 or 3 would I still be able to get games from previous seasons?

[@TweeterMan287]

Oh yeah, totally

[@2bdone2]

New video yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[@sk-2848]

banger video as always

[@RoyalRefraction]

The lack of a back light is a deal breaker for me sadly. Shame as I love every other aspect of it.

[@coondogtheman]

I want one of these but it plays DOOM. And maybe it would have a camera. I know the screen is black and white and would be pointless but why not. I have other devices that take pictures but display on a black and white LCD screen.

[@StarcleBlaze]

Didn’t know this existed until you covered it

[@HelloThereUniverse]

He's backkkkkkkk!!

[@Notester82]

Nice overview of the Playdate and some of its games! Also aaaaaa, can't believe I fell for the fake cracked screen -u-

[@randchuck2492]

I actually would've loved to get one of these but it's way too damn overpriced for not even having a back light. This is the first time I've seen that case and it's really nice but 30 dollars is insane for that tiny case.

[@mckidlet]

Maybe if they make a 'pro' model that has a backlight then I'll buy it! but for now I'll wait.

[@n00bpwner36]

[@TweeterMan287]

i play amogus with my boys

[@shipguy55]

I love my little yellow block of cheese. I was in the first wave of orders so I got mine a while ago. I really enjoy Sketch. Share. Solve. and Super Corp Tax Evader so have them downloaded already. Playroll got me really hard when I first downloaded it, and a cool secret is you call play the song backwards. A few of the games of season 1 you gave a poor description of though. Lost Your Marbles is more of a marble game with visual novel cutscenes, Echoic Memory is a sound matching game and DemonQuest 85 is a visual novel.

[@TweeterMan287]

I shoulda played more of some of the games so that I could accurately describe them... oops

[@RachelWolfe]

I saw the thumbnail and I still wasn't suspicious of a "-roll" title

[@daemonspudguy]

Kamibox is developing for the Playdate? He makes some of my favorite mobile games.

[@linewizard]

I had a preorder opportunity for the devkit for this thing a couple years ago, and I still regret not picking it up. I just put in my steam deck order, so I can't really justify buying one right now. Looks cool though! I hope to get one eventually

[@ozmond]

I still haven’t gotten mine

[@-throat-]

I've been watching this channel for 10+ years and I realized...JUST realized in the intro, you're wearing a Strong Bad shirt! Nice =)

[@AutumnRain]

ordered one of these when reviews first started coming out for it but dang!!! still not going to be showing up until next year :/ i'd love to develop a game for it if i have the time.

[@TweeterMan287]

I'd love to be a console tester!

[@AutumnRain]

@@TweeterMan287 Oh, oh I don't know how to say this. I'm kind of an RPG gal. LOL

You really rickrolled us? Is this 2007?

Your voice...dropped? I'm old.

[@MorganNye]

It dropped since 2010.

[@sciencemageTV]

@@MorganNye Haha, I surely haven't been here in a while! I'm 23 now and remember watching Tweeterman videos after spamming Ashens and AVGN... It's nice to see the channel alive and well.

[@MorganNye]

@@sciencemageTV Wow, first of all hello, been a long time, and why did you spam Ashens and AVGN? Just curious

[@koopa1248]

I love warioware type games and this thing looks like a lot of fun

[@homegrown5189]

Very cool...I really thought it was broken!

[@alex23324523]

the miyoo mini v2 is 1/3rd of the price and plays at least 100x more games, lol

[@1Soniccool]

You said sus have you been playing too much Among Us

[@pikkyuukyuun4741]

imo, this thing costs way too much money but they arent a big company so making profits is understandable but still
