1. when discussing Mortal Kombat, when mentioning the 10 year graphical leap, I meant to put in footage showing the contrast between the eras of gaming, and totally forgot... woops...
2. When discussing Final Fantasy VI and reviving General Leo, I, at one point, accidentally say Emperor Leo, then to back to calling him General Leo.
3. I apologize for referring to Ridley as female TWICE in this video. honestly, two apologies was probably necessary anyway. I must have accidentally typed up those parts about Ridley in such a time span that I forgot I did, same goes for the recording process. I think enough time passed from the first time I apologized while recording that I simply forgot I already had!
(I was once again sick while recording some of the audio for this one. The recording process was over the course of a month, so changes in my voice are probably quite noticeable! Also, my microphone picked up a lot of mouse clicking throughout the recording, so, hopefully it's not too distracting. I did my best to edit them out as much as I can. Oh, and my cat of course meows at least once in this video, so, watch out for that!)The Impact of The Blair Witch Project: The Right Film at the Right TimeNEScRETRO2023-04-15 | Join me as I discuss the impact of The Blair Witch Project on the motion picture industry, how it brought viral marketing to the mainstream, and how its directors fooled the world into believing that three students had disappeared deep in the woods of Maryland.The Creepy/Strange YouTube Video Iceberg: A Deeper LookNEScRETRO2022-12-05 | Join me as I talk my way through the Creepy/Strange YouTube Video Iceberg, with my own personal anecdotes, opinions, and theories behind the many bizarre and mysterious points this iceberg has to offer!
(This is yet another reupload of my original YouTube iceberg video that was first uploaded on October 31, 2022, which had some copyright issues, then reuploaded again on November 12, 2022, which was age-restricted. I kept this upload on my channel, as it's the true, original, uncensored version, so if you wish to watch that, it's still there, just age-restricted. As I want my videos available to be viewed by everyone, including those who do not wish to make a YouTube account (These people are locked out of watching age restricted videos) I went ahead and edited the video to be suitable for all ages. You'll notice that the video is two minutes longer, and that's because I expanded a little more information on one point on this iceberg. Can you find out which one it is? Enjoy!)

This is a small section I'm adding for missed facts, or things I got blatantly false, that I would like to add here for posterity. Comment if you feel something should be added to this list!
1. The Super Mario 64 "so long'a bowser" quote was originally removed from the "Shindou Pak Taiou" version. basically, a version of Super Mario 64 with rumble, and some fixed glitches/oddities, such as no longer being able to do backwards long jumping, a popular speedrunning technique.
2. the hell valley sky trees return in WarioWare Get it Together on the Switch, and with that, Nintendo officially acknowledging them.
3. Mario's stereotypical Italian accent provided by Charles Martinet, can be blamed in regards to many mishearing "so long'a bowser", sort of like how he says "it's'a me, mario!" I didn't think this was something that needed to be said, as it's a bit obvious how heavy Mario's accent is, but I get comments about it a lot so I'll include it.
4. In regards to Metroid's Justin Bailey password, samus having the pink leotard and green hair isn't a unique color pallet. it's the color that she changes to when she wears the Varia suit. that's it. the color is NOT special or something given to samus because of the password. when samus doesn't have the varia suit, but is wearing the leotard, she has reddish brown hair, and this switches to blonde when you switch weapons to missles. when you have the varia suit equipped, her hair simply changes shades of green. I always thought Justin Bailey was unique because the color samus takes, but no. its just special because it gives you everything, including the varia suit equipped right from the start, hence the green hair.
(I used so many songs in this video, it would be quite a task to name them all, so, if you're curious about any, just leave a comment and I'll do my best to get the song name for you!)

Maybe in the future, I'll make a second video discussing newer discoveries!
