There is a decent amount of cringe in this video for me haha, but the end is cute. This video is a product of its time. It was made during the great Pewdiepie vs T-Series war of 2019. I have tuned into PewDiePie’s stuff a fair bit throughout the years, but never more than in 2019. Looking back, it does feel like this marked a shift in the “vibe” of YouTube – with more big budget channels gentrifying the amateurish feel of the site before that. I still love YouTube, don’t get me wrong, but it is different now. Back then you really felt like you could hit the big time if you just made a really good video. I don’t know if it’s the same for channels starting out anymore. Maybe they’ve all moved to TikTok?

Anyways, I still watch Pewd’s videos every now and then. And I’m glad to see him living out his wholesome life in Japan.

It’s been 10 years! For the 80th and final ep of A-Bit of 8-Bit I will be reremixing some of my favourite tunes from the last decade. Mario with Queen? Undertale with Harry Potter? The Beatles with Steven Universe? It’s going to be LARGE. In the lead-up, I’m making these 30-second Chip Clip shorts to highlight and reflect on my favourite 8-bit moments.
