Now thanks to the internet a lot of unreleased games have become available that we can now enjoy. My current favorite is Star Fox 2. What is yours?

Let's plays are the laziest form of videomaking on youtube, next to pickups. Originality and a script will help your content improve. This is not the best way to get people to watch your channel.
I also hate Let's Play videos. And I don't think I've ever played an unreleased game before.
I've never personally played it but Space Fantasy Zone for the PC-Engine looks absolutely amazing.
"Ai Oboete Imasu Ka?"
BS Out of Bounds Golf. Wrote a review for it over 4 years ago. Not a lot of people knew about this game then... those I've since introduced the game to have all said the same thing: the game is super fun and interesting. They may not be as crazy about it as me, but I've never heard one bad thing said about this game. Check it out if you haven't already.
4 player mini-golf on the SNES. With the evil ability to knock your opponents' balls out of bounds. Doesn't get much better than that.
Rant and opinion videos are the laziest actually. Most successful channels do the least work also. This is not a let's play this is a longplay with information on the game and commentary. I only used my video to show if nobody knows about the game. Everyone else's videos have poor video capture and I feel mine shows the best possible footage of the game that can be recorded in HD. I could care less if people watch but until I find a better source of material for my topics I will continue to use my own videos as a reference.

Because this is not the stone age where I tell a story and you imagine what a game looks like. I provide a video of game footage so people can better understand what I am talking about if they have never seen the game. Just because everyone else lacks visual aides does not mean it is the best way.
So us ancient forumtards are lacking because we don't have a hd camera and don't constantly post lame-lazy videos to try and get ad revenue?
This is a retrogame forum, everybody here knows of Starfox 2 and what it looks like. Bring something new to the table.
Gaming Historians stuff is far from boring, it certainly blows anything you've done out of the water. Let's compare your Starfox 2 videos. I like how you're dissing other youtubers with better content than you. GameSack? Don't make me laugh. Joe is an egomaniac and the other guy couldn't read a script to save his life. Talk about falling asleep, it's like these guys read through every retro magazine and copy and paste reviews into their videos.

That's false. The channels I watch put in work and you can tell. Anybody and their mother can film themselves playing and talking about a videogame. Lets play or long play it's the same damn thing. I suggest taking a look at Gaming Historians retrospective on Star Fox, to know how quality videos are made.
If I get stuck in a game without being able to progress then I'll just turn the sucker off and deem it not worth playing. It's real easy for me to lose interest nowadays. If a game requires a faq then it's not for me.
You could care less if people watch? Stop lying.
Shall I be the first to mention Bio Force Ape then?
The one in thinking of never released here and that's radical dreamers. Released in Japan over the satteliview has some relation to chrono trigger
Anybody can record but not everyone can record and capture the best game footage and actually have worthwhile things to say while playing a game. As for the Gaming Historian he is great if you want to fall asleep or remember the days of high school when you had a teacher so boring you would need caffeine to pay attention in class. If you are really looking for quality content try Game Sack they are actually entertaining and informative not some monotone video game librarian.
You must be from the generation that thinks trying is too hard and expect someone else to solve your problems if you quit playing a game because you lack the skill or intelligence to progress. You are missing out on a lot of great games and experiences with that mentality.
I do not do this for a living. This is a hobby so no I do not care in the least if I get 0 views. I do these videos for my own entertainment and if somebody else enjoys them great if not there is plenty of other content to dislike on YouTube instead.
+1, I hate when that happens. BTW your location, "A van down by the river" is awesome. Chris Farley was a comedic genius.
