Wii U Post-mortem with Happy Console Gamer!

[@HappyConsoleGamer]

Thanks for having me on! you are as always an amazing host! also such fun conversation!

[@EPN]

+HappyConsoleGamer hugs brother!

[@da3696]

Wow, you guys must do more videos together (maybe 3-4 per year), you have great knowledge and I trust your opinions. Thumbs up!

[@jeffbartolo288]

RPGs!! Love em, my favorite game is lunar remade the psx

[@MrZenith16]

hopefully we'll see you helping out on ep from time to time with reviews or on one of the many rocket and ray guns awards. that would be cool to see

[@5oups3yeVi3w]

A wonderful channel - A great interview (with an emphasis on 'inter') subbed but also really happy to see Johnny so excited :D

[@arnoldrivers9666]

HappyConsoleGamer is by far my favourite gaming youtuber. no gimmicky, cheesy shit. just a down to earth guy who loves videogames.

[@superman3486]

i would be in "awe" if you both had your own show together..the chemistry you both bring to the table is top notch! you guys both rock

[@andrewvaaler8633]

You guys are great. Best of luck on building your viewership on KZbin. You surely deserve a ton of subscribers. I really appreciate how you both don't take the overly cynical and "rant-y" or even spoiled acting approach. Videogames are an awesome pass-time and we are lucky to be able to consume the art form that teams of people pour their lives into creating. Nice to see it properly appreciated.

[@usher67]

still blows me away seeing u guys together

[@RetroMyke]

It feels like my childhood is talking to my adulthood. Love both these guys.

[@ryanchapman6162]

You guys are great together. Love the conversations

[@9Tcrookedteeth]

its so great seeing someone i've watched for over ten years come together with one of my favorite 'youtubers'. Its great being a canadian and watching great fun stuff. Thanks. WTF!? how old am I!? lol... :)

[@djjameswyld]

Really enjoyed this... thanks guyz.... fantastic listening to other peoples. gaming history...

[@DarrylG]

I could watch you guys talking about games for hours and hours

[@nozomusuzuki7916]

Victor, you are Canadian Royalty of Video Game World!

[@j23roa]

i had no idea this youtube channel existed.. i used to watch vic on tv back in the 90's... reviewing n64 games around stanley park and downtown vancouver.. i dont remember the names of your co hosts though... or the names of your tv shows.. but your voice brings back memories. subscribing instantly

[@j23roa]

oh right, electric playground... did the tv show get a new name or makeover or did some company buy out the show? i remember seeing it on tv around 5 years back and it looked so different

[@seal3081]

Watched the whole thing, please have johnny again on your show!

[@Stage-1_Gaming]

Excellent video Victor! What a great video game/geek culture dynamic duo. PLEASE bring Johnny back for more episodes. Keep up the great work and I hope EPN grows stronger and bigger.

[@seal3081]

Thanks for introducing me to this channel Johnny.

[@theinfinity7s]

This was really cool.You guys have great chemistry together and great perspectives on the industry and how it has evolved. Victor, thank you for being such a genuine fan of gaming and bringing to the forefront of the questions and experiences, most media coverage miss when covering games. The emotional aspect. The creative spark. Hope you guys get to do another video together.

[@canadianturtle7240]

I've been watching both you guys for so long that it almost feels like I know you personally.

[@SilverSamurai12]

Awesome chat. Thanks for doing it and hope to see more like this. I remember watching EP before it was on G4 (I think it was on CTV?) on Saturday afternoons! Was always in awe that there was tv show about video games!

[@mikeearwicker5660]

Thanks Vic for having Johnny on. Amazing...would love to see this happen again. Love both your channels! This is great!

[@MollyAnnMissie]

This was good! You guys have great chemistry; The conversation was so natural and engaging: The hour just flew by. Would love to Johnny come back for more.

[@HandheldAddict]

people talk about the great things about Vic, his passion for games, etc. all true, but I think one of his greatest strengths and a key to his success is how he is with people. He seems to bring out the best in others through his interactions. bravo Vic.

[@LOWkenshin]

Awesome chemistry guys! Love Vic and HCG, you guys are legends!

[@Zeebo1]

Big fan of both you guys. Both awesome people. Great duo.

[@jonasking9587]

Saving this for later. Johnny is always such a joy.

[@behindthedesk2]

Absolutely fantastic. Loved every minute of this episode.

[@retroforce6919]

It was very pleasant watching you guys talk about the past. Looking forward to more shows from you. 👍

[@TheGamePhilter]

You guys, are the best. Great show on both sides.

[@Theendingman]

two pioneers. Great stuff. Audio was good too

[@marthazard2]

LOVE this channel, so happy that happyconsolegamer introduced me to it

[@lanfan9488]

I never watched Vic growing up, but I was a huge fan of G4 in the US, so when Johnny recommended his channel, I was stoked!

[@kryyptyyk]

This deserves vastly more views. It's criminal how low your view and sub counts are. Such a shame. We need to do better to spread the word! I've watched this episode (and the Very Victor Lucas Christmas episode) about 3-4 times, at least, over the past year or so. Great stuff.

[@TwinCrystal]

You guys make a great team. More of these videos!

[@KingXanadu]

Super fun video, more of this please!

[@nozomusuzuki7916]

Good luck Vic! And Johnny Millenium, you are a truly wonderful man! Thank you for helping our pal Vic!

[@robertdfinzel]

I know this is old but new to me. I ❤️ that you have remained humble, through the years. Video games are your passion and you treat them delicately, recognizing that even when they are “bad” a group of people tried there best. I salute you. Ignore the click bait and comment thread minority. Keep doing what you do, Vic.

[@DragonHunterG]

Excellent conversation and insights

[@treasonwhat4]

thank you hcg for directing me here and holy shit ep is back...lucas is the man, canadian classic. 2 classy dudes right here.

[@hitachicordoba]

Great conversation, thoroughly enjoyed it! Funny to notice the slight generation gap between them lol

[@BazookaTooth707]

You guys work really well together. I love it lol

[@maximpact24]

Victor, you and Johnny have great chemistry! This was such a great watch man. Thank you. Maybe you can have Mr. Millennium on again?

[@yotty97]

he spells it "millenium" lol, i.e yes his name has a spelling mistake and he refuses to correct it LOL

[@DatGameCollector]

HOLY SHIT i used to watch you so much on g4! I miss g4 so much. WELL early g4.

[@RobbyHuang]

You guys have such a great chemistry, so glad you started Film Fury!

[@Quaif]

So glad you're still doing this Victor! Happy Console Gamer is great!

[@Round2GamingChannel]

Fantastic episode Vic! Was awesome to see the both of you together :) Thanks so much for the terrific show!

[@jasonbuckenberger3122]

Great episode. Great chemistry between the two of you. Absolutely LOVE my Wii U. I got mine just recently and there are some fantastic games! Great way to play Switch games in HD still way cheaper. Solid console

[@CaptAwesumNo1Zone]

Miss seeing you two together, gotta team up together sometime this Christmas for a visit episode

[@j06-e7u]

you guys should make a video at least once a month. Great content!

[@TheOneJat]

Could listen to you guys talk all day, great ep.

[@notoelegancko89]

Awesome conversation guys, I've enjoyed every minute of it. And well said - if only Super Mario Maker had been a launch title, things might have gone so differently.

[@Gammaworlds]

We need more of these episodes or even a podcast!! Love when Mr. Lucas and Mr. Millennium get together!

[@Heavymetalrille]

This was great, i enjoyed this video very much. You should do this again, how about a video togheter after the Switch has been released ? A suggestion among many things that come to mind. Thanks for an awesome video guys!

[@milkapeismilky5464]

Great conversation! Standout for me was Cool Console talking about his dad trying out Mario Kart. Made me sad for his loss, feel like the other presenter just ignored that moment.

[@timberwolf3781]

Vic that is why we watch you......you are the Pro we trust. Everyone asks you " is this a launch day buy Vic?" because we trust you because some of us have been watching you for 20 years! I bought Titanfall 2 last night because of your recommendation....I am 90 mins in and loving the hell out of it! Never stop what you do Vic....keep finding a way to make this work!

[@stephanier3343]

Awesome show guys.

[@Duncanvp5]

Vic needs more subscribers. This is great! I been a fan of his since judgement day on G4. Been a fan ever since.

[@SoulStorm360]

Judgement Day on g4 was this shit!

[@nozomusuzuki7916]

Yeah, all of us should do it!

[@GameEscape]

I know that Johnny's podcast is kind of on a hiatus, but I think you two would have an amazing podcast. Great chemistry and passion going on in this live stream. I would listen religiously, should such a podcast come about.

[@nintendad8168]

Great show guys btw

[@rossrobertson674]

it must be a generational thing cuz I'm 10 years younger than johnny and me and my friends loved smash bros on the 64, and every one after

[@Xeogred]

The super powers combined.

[@YTHandlesBlow]

I still find it funny that Mario Maker started off as a flash game in production years ago, then the guy behind the game got a c&d order...then a lil bit after the game got announced for systems

[@RyuHayabusa06]

The Wii U is actually my favorite console of recent years. I had so much fun with it and it's such a shame that it wasn't very successful. SMB 3D World, SMB Wii U, DKC Tropical Freeze, Zelda BOTW, Shantae, Ducktales, SMB Maker, Shovel Knight, NES Remix, etc were so much fun. The Switch looks like it will continue the magic of Nintendo.

[@laustin7791]

Victor isn't a Canada treasure. He is a North American treasure. As a US guy I adored EP and reviews on the run. Johnny is a treasure as well and of course good ol Tommy.

[@mackstertube]

Don't know who you are yet Vic but have subbed instantly thanks to your good mate here as I have been watching him for a while now and trust him enough. Enough that if he had that raport with you, I am guessing you are decent bloke. I always start off giving people my sub and they have to earn the unsub, so please don't earn an unsub.

[@paulnewhouse5126]

hey wait, isnt that the gujy from that old show "ep"? (electronic playground)?? O

[@cyberzander09]

Great episode :)

[@JetFire0422]

Great show guys

[@MatthewMcGravey]

Johnny Rocks.....EP Rocks.....wicked vid!

[@MARK111174]

Tron is still one of my favorite movies

[@aarondagostino6149]

If Wii U launched with Mario Maker and allowed people to show it off on KZbin it would have been a game changer.

[@MARK111174]

My Dad's favorite was Empire Strikes Back on Atari 2600

[@zanychelly]

Johnny is an awesome person. Nice show. And , if i remember well, the Wii was not as big as the Ps2

[@danielpatrick3268]

Love this so much!

[@ninjasec]

watching this again, I just got a great Wii U deal from a friend, started Breath of the Wild, it is so amazing. . This rundown is for Jason Bartlett :), I can hear you say it in the new year :)

[@DS-xn6ju]

I had no idea about all these wiiu games. Thanks for the vid.

[@MARK111174]

I see how you mentored super derek, very cool man

[@519MaLoNeY]

THIS WAS OUTSTANDING!

[@JungleAWayOfLife]

Vic's game room tour video would break KZbin. Do eet!

[@NocturnalToothbrush]

I loved this!

[@nwawallace]

Sweet. Great vid!

[@nwtyrantbecerra7827]

damn i always wondered what happened to victor i remember watching him and tomy in the early g4 days. lol good stuff guys.

[@5oups3yeVi3w]

Splinter of the Minds Eye iwas an early discovery for me - I was born in 1984 but this story really made an impression :D

[@HandheldAddict]

I love Tank! Tank! Tank! helped that I got it for $5, but it's so frenetic and arcadey. glad to see it get some love here (at least from Johnny)

[@DJSteezy]

Same as the rest, I loved you on Judgment Day. New subscriber here.

[@tmaccarter1576]

finally you on youtube not cable kind of late.

[@samyargo9752]

Man, I miss TechTV/G4

[@moisesvirella94]

God I can relate so much with the whole if people knew what I was listening to feeling.

[@MARK111174]

interesting, Johnny and I both born the same year

[@nozomusuzuki7916]

Switch is turning out to be a must have console now.

[@efdlg3147]

Wii U Starts at 41:18 ...

[@paulsutherlandgolspie]

amazing

[@silent_jav]

Ohh man! It's so good to see him again! :,-)

[@internetuser-os5hw]

Great video.

[@Ryo22]

Please do more videos together. Great chemistry!

[@dobuitaarcade3229]

Project Zero is an great Wii U game to but I think it was a pal only physical release in other regions it was a download only title. man I loved the Wii U it was very special for me because it was my step into hd gameing and on top a chance to play wii and the third party titles like cod or mass effect etc that I never did bevor. i was a retro gamer only bevor. So for me the Wii U has a special place in my heart and in my thoughts its the dreamcast of newer generations, so overlooked by the people that they don't see the quality. I mean come on just xenoblade x is worth to buy that console ... wich better rpg came out in that time it's awesome. oh man I'm getting emotional right now :D by the way that was a great video :)

[@TrickyVagrant]

When Johnny started talking about smaller youtubers never finding an audience that is definitely how I feel. So many times do I feel, "What is the point." It definitely sucks and it is very hard to keep going.

[@Mrdeniro100]

Tell people in the comments what you do and ask them to check out the channel.

[@tjlnintendo]

Would that cause more hate if you advertise on comments?

[@teneleven2818]

A friend of mine back then said he watched Jem and my little pony. He said so what I don’t care. I think a lot of kids did the same not wanting to admit it.

[@coldskyclouds7188]

my fave game of all time is divided up between like 15 games.. but my fave song of all time is prob 'wanna be startin somthin' by michael jackson

[@MARK111174]

like Tommy said, lacking launch titles killed WiiU

[@Alleyne070707]

EP and Happy Console gamer, Canadians rule!!!

[@davegabriel]

Not big on Transformers, Vic? Never seen the movie? Wow, I'm shocked. I figured you'd be all over them, especially being a toy guy. You should definitely make time for G1 at some point.
