20 minutes from 20 Thane Gaming videos! “Dark Aspects of EarthBound” all the way to my newest series, “Nintendo Innuendo”. From the sillier “50 things to do with Mario’s Head” to the ridiculous “Paper Mario’s Fandom Explained Using a Broken Family Analogy.”

After combing through all of my uploads in 2020 (totaling almost 5 hours) I spliced, split, and sandwiched my favorite moments into just 20 questionably nutrient-dense minutes. Note that this compilation is filled with mostly sillier edits.

At the very end I compiled of all the different ways I’ve thanked my patrons this past year. Thank you to anyone reading this and to everyone who’s supported me in 2020...here’s to next year!
