DUDE WHAT THE HECK?!? I asked you nicely 😭 Unbelievably kind my man. You honestly have no idea how much I'm shaken by this. You never ever, ever need to send me money. But thank you. I'll put this towards something to benefit the channel. Massive love dude 🙏 Have an amazing day
You and Valve are offering a level of transparency that is rare these days. Love your content, and I check your channel multiple times a week to see if there's a new vid to relax to! :D
I typically don't comment on TH-cam videos (I know what an original opening to a comment) but I really want to tell you this. Your character is phenomenal. You are such a genuine and kind person, participating in and creating charities and music composure. You start every video by greeting the viewer as more of a friend than anything else, which is something I do not see often. You appreciate everything you get, small or big. Heck you even give back what you make. I haven't even mentioned the structure of your videos, they are amazing. They are very organized, very informative, and have a hint of comedy. I found this channel from your top 5 games for Steam Deck, which has impacted not only me, but many others. Don't worry about hate you might receive or the way you come off, just be yourself. Wow I just realized I wrote a ton, you ain't getting those 2 minutes back. Anyways I hope you have a great day and I wish you great success on your TH-cam journey. #steamdeckboiz
Holy shit man...this got me. You don't understand how much I appreciate you taking the time to write such a beautiful comment. So incredibly kind of you. Even my mum text me about this comment hahahaha. Im truly humbled 🙏 Thank you so much for sticking around and putting out such positive energy into the world, we cant get enough of that 😊 Have wonderful day my man ⭐️
#steamdeckboiz love your channel. Also I’ve said it before but the quality of your videos is why I subscribe. A lot of steam deck videos look like they were shot with a potato webcam. Keep making quality videos with quality content and your channel will grow.
#steamdeckboiz Damn, Mike. You are the most genuine person I've seen on TH-cam and that's through 15 or so years. I just like listening to all the things you say. You seem like a great guy. Glad you're getting some traction. Also, it doesn't feel like any bragging is going on. You're humble and just helping people out to understand the ins and outs.
I had just gotten my Deck when I stumbled on your channel, I do not subscribe to many channels but you being a Final Fantasy fan, great content creator and doing deck-related videos, it was a given for me to subscribe! Wish you the best of luck, #steamdeckboiz ! Would love to see more content from you!
A few months back I came here for the Steam Deck vids but I've stayed for the Mike! You've been getting a lot of love and comments just like this one in the chat, and they're fully deserved! You've got a lovely mix of engaging and chill that keeps me coming back for more. Keep it up Mike, I hope your channel continues to grow by leaps and bounds! #steamdeckboiz
Ahh man, so so kind. Thank you so much 🙏 I KNOW?!? You have no idea how overwhelmed I am. Feel incredibly lucky to have great people like you come along for the journey and continue to be unbelievably nice. Will forever be so grateful. Thanks again mate, I hope you have a great day 🙏
I think your videos helped a lot of us who were waiting for a Steam Deck with no end in sight. I filled the void with content, but I'm happy to stick around even though I've had the deck for a couple months now. #steamdeckboiz
Loving your style and looking forward to seeing more of your videos in the future. The way you talk and present things is so pleasant, so I could enjoy listening to you talk about almost anything. #steamdeckboiz
Really loving watching your journey. Jumped in at the beginning and it's been a wonderful ride. Remember, don't ever feel slimy - people love watching you and are getting something out of it. You are allowed to profit from your work! Keep it up! #steamdeckboiz
Hey man! How're you doing? Ah thank you so much mate, really appreciate that. Makes me feel much better about posting this video. Hope I can share the benefits with everyone as I continue making videos 😊
Hey man, I'm just so happy for you for reaching a new height in your channel. I've been a follower of your channel since you have hundreds of followers and now you have thousands! I really hope my channel can reach the same achievement as you. It's so hard to be recognize when there's so much competition going on haha rooting for you man!
You convinced me to buy a Steam Deck, and since then I've been so happy with my purchase. I work at sea, so the portability of the Steam Deck has been awesome, and I've been busy cleaning up my huge backlog of games! I'm amazed at your high quality of content, and every time you upload a video, I click on it as soon as I have time. #steamdeckboiz
Hey! Ahh thats amazing! Im so glad you're enjoying it. Ah dude that must be such a game changer having it on a job like that. Funny enough I was talking to my friend who's in the navy the other day, he has long stints at sea and is gonna get a steam deck for the exact same reason! Thank you sooo much for sticking around to watch the videos mate 🙏 Really appreciate you being here 😊
i don 't know what to say - i love you man. it 's really rare that someone is that kind and inside out beautiful like you. feel blessed! #steamdeckboiz
@@mike.barnes i just love everything about your videos. you deserve every single follower and i hope that you reach more people with your positive attitude and great character. feel hugged! 😌
#steamdeckboiz Hey Mike, I’ve watched every video reviewing and first impressions/tests of the steam deck on TH-cam before doing my purchase. And of all the people I’ve watched you are the only one that I’ve subscribed to, because you have a very different energy and love your vibe. I’ve been thinking of doing my own Yt channel for a while, and I think I will come back to your videos because they inspire me so much, so thank you ! Keep your videos coming, and genuinely wish you a big success success on Yt. Ps : Steam deck was my best purchase in years ! Love it.
Ah Steve, this is craaazy kind of you. You have no idea how much I appreciate ya taking the time to write such a nice comment 🙏 Thank you man 🙏 Dude definitely start a channel. Honestly the only regret I have is not starting sooner. I've just subbed to you incase you decide to post. Have a great day mate and thank you again 😄
Frigen love your channel man. I honestly don’t care what you base your channel around, gaming, tech, music, production, I just like your vibe and would literally watch anything you make. #steamdeckboiz
Ah man, what a beautiful comment. Thank you dude 🙏 You have no idea how much I appreciate this kinda comment. Theres so many things id love to make videos around but am apprehensive that people would enjoy them. So thank you for this mate, means a lot 🙏 Have a great day
Thanks so much man, incredibly kind to say that! 😄 Im honestly having a blast as a smaller channel though, id be happy if my subs froze where they are tbh! Have a great day man 🙏
So happy for you buddy! But frankly you deserve more! No wonder your videos are so interesting, because you have been an educator for a long time. Keep it up bud. Can't wait for the next one! Cheers!
This channel is so unbelievably underrated, the quality of your videos outshines even the biggest youtubers with a big crew of peopke and to think that you do this channel by yourself and make videos of this standard baffles me. I thoroughly enjoyed every single on of your amazing videos and got super exited when i saw that notification pop up that you had posted another! keep at it, you are amazing #steamdeckboiz
Ah man, I cant handle the kindness. So appreciate you taking the time to write such a nice comment 🙏 So glad to have you around. Have a great day dude 😄
Tobi! Congratulations, you won part of the giveaway 🥳 Thanks so much for getting involved 🙏 Whenever you're ready shoot me a message on Insta - 'mikebarnes1994' or email - mikerjbarnes@gmail.com. And I'll send you that gift card 😄 Have a great day!
DUDE WHAT DA HECK?!? This is so so so insanely kind of you. You honestly never ever have to give me money, but I’m so incredibly humbled for the gesture🙏🏼 I’ll put this towards something to improve the channel, unless you would like me to pass this onto the Ukrainian charity I mentioned? Thanks again man, this made me emotional 🙏🏼 Have a wonderful day
@@mike.barnes you seem like a really genuine guy, so I will leave it to you as what you put it too. I’ll be happy with whatever you choose. Thanks for the reply. Have a great day too. 👍🏻
Thanks so much man 🙏 It's a pleasure making them! Honestly Im still bewildered that this is happening, so overwhelmed hahaha. Good luck on the giveaway mate, have a great day 😊
Love the style and humour in your videos, especially the Steam deck ones. However these videos have cost me money in that I now own a Steam Deck… so thanks for that Mike 😂. Nice to see your charity donation too 🙌🏻 #steamdeckboiz
Really enjoying following your channel evolving from the first video on. Thanks for sharing all your experiences in an honest & funny way at the same time! #steamdeckboiz
#steamdeckboiz your channel is a breath of fresh air and my partner and I always take the time to watch your videos. Thanks for the insight into adsense, it was helpful for someone like myself who is teetering on the precipice to setting up a channel for themselves. All the Best Mike & Hannah!
Ah dude, so incredibly kind of you guys. So lovely both you and your partner watch together 😄 Tell her I said hello! Definitely start a a channel my man, my biggest regret is not starting sooner. I've just subbed incase you decide to post 😊 Have a great day dude ⭐️
Found your content through binging Steam Deck videos, and subscribed because you seemed like just a genuine dude. Plus your relaxing voice is such a nice change of pace from the usual gaming channel. 😂 Keep up the good work! #SteamDeckBoiz
Great video, really informative for the breakdown of all the different behind the scenes youtube going ons. Congrats on the channel growth, long may it continue. #steamdeckboiz
Hey man! Ive been subbed to you when you made your first steam deck vid and i gotta say, your production value and your personality are absolutely top tier 🥰 love the work homie Ps. I want you to succeed soooo badly 🤞
Always enternaining and informative. Your passion for making these videos shows in the quality of the outcome. I really hope it doesn't wear out and you continue to have fun, and us with you. #steamdeckboiz
So glad you're enjoying them man! Hypes me up to make more 😄 Totally, I think the big key is to have fun with the videos, luckily I absolutely love making them. Thank you so much for taking the time to comment man, I really appreciate it. Have a great day dude! ⭐️
I discovered you from your steam deck video, but honestly since the quality is so amazing, I've just kept watching since I'm curious about what you'll put out next! Really enjoying the editing and the humour. #steamdeckboiz
⚡GUYS⚡ To say I'm overwhelmed would be an understatement. I was so close to not posting this as I thought it would be super slimy and vain but your reaction has been SO unbelievably kind. THANK YOU 🙏 Its truly such a honour to know that you're enjoying the videos despite it being a non steam deck related. Also two more people donated to my charity TIME which is absolutely INSANE. 🤯 George and Steve I honestly cannot thank you enough. You are truly the BEST BOIS 🙏 Thanks again dudes, I appreciate you all more than you know. Have a awesome day ⭐ #steamdeckboiz #steamdeckgurlz
1st thing I remember feeling and saying to myself, the very 1st time I saw you in one of your video, is how sweet and kind you came across and I can tell quite quickly and usually get it right 😊 You should really consider mentioning and talk about your charity a bit more often or even do some or a series of videos just about it. Everything happens for a reason... by your charity work getting more exposure all the people you've been helping will benefit from it and very likely you'll be able to reach and help a lot more 😉👍 Keep up the good work 🖖#steamdeckboiz
Hey Gluca! How're you doing? Ah dude this was such a lovely comment for you to leave 🥲 Thank you so, so much! You're so right, I think I'm going to use my outro to mention the charity in future videos to help spread the word. But id also looove to do a series on how I started it up as its actually quite straight forward and I think lots of people should consider starting up non profits/charities as its soo gratifying and you can even turn it into your job! Thanks again bud, really appreciate you taking the time to comment! Have a wonderful day ⭐️
You seem like a really good dude man - I found your steam deck video a week or two ago and slowly the algo has been serving me up the rest of your videos... really enjoying the videos and your journey
#steamdeckboiz Great content my man. I found you a little while back from your Steam Deck is my favourite console vid, when I just got my deck. Love the chill vibe, keep the SD vids coming!
I’m glad your channel is doing well! I bumped into it while scrolling through Steam Deck videos, and I just had to subscribe. You’ve got a great personality, editing skills, and such, so I can totally foresee your channel becoming huge in the near future. Keep up the good work! #STEAMDECKBOIZ
Your channel is great and I am really impressed by the content.. The amount of fun and energy behind it is just astounding. 🖤 Looking forward what you'll do next. #steamdeckboiz
Hey Martin, how's it going man? Ahh dude thats so kind of you, thank you. Im so glad its coming across like that as I honestly have a blast making these videos. Have a great day dude! ⭐️
I found your channel only recently - but you've really inspired me to get back to making videos on my channel, after losing the motivation. I've set myself the modest goal to reach 1K subs this year.
Ah dude I’m sooo glad to hear that! I’m certain if you stay somewhat consistent and try your best to improve little by little with every video you’ll easily hit that target before the end of the year 😊 +1 sub from me
Love what you've been doing with the channel! Glad I subbed after seeing your steam deck video and I'm looking forward to more videos from you #steamdeckboiz
Another great video. I stumbled onto your channel through TH-cam autoplay, which I usually have turned off. Thankfully this time it turned out great. You seem like a really genuine dude, keep up the great work. #steamdeckboiz
I started following you because of you steam deck video. I received my steam deck a few months ago, and I’ve been watching a lot of videos about it. I really liked yours so I decided to subscribe #steamdeckboiz
Dude was that you?!?! Honestly man, you have no idea how much it moved me to see that donation pop up the other week. So, so, so kind 🙏 And another donation? 🥲 Mate, I don't deserve this hahaha. Will be forever grateful man, thank you, thank you, thank you ⭐️
Incredibly kind my man, thank you so much. Feels scary to post non steam deck related content but I'm so glad you've stuck around. Really appreciate it dude 🙏
What I really enjoy about you channel is that it's clear you're just doing this for fun. You're super transparent too. Also they feel a bit effortlessly funny. Thanks for all that you. #steamdeckboiz
Thank you soo much man 🙏 Im so glad that comes across as I honestly have a blast making videos, doesn't feel like work at all! Have a great day my dude 😊
@@mike.barnes Its everything i expected and more! I really dont have a single bad thing to say minus maybe the input lag when you try to play it on a TV, which is not really a big deal 🤷♂️ i’m just glad it lives up to its name, my current gaming platform is PS5 and its honestly just utterly disappointing.
#steamdeckboiz This is fully deserved man, I have enjoyed all of your videos so far. You seem like a genuine humble guy and deserve all the success that comes your way. Keep it up mate 👊🏻
#steamdeckboiz Great and insightful video there Mike. Discovered you from your amazing steam deck video which was the final push I needed to buy my own! Keep up the great content, you deserve all your success!
You are right, it's so rare for channels to blow up so early in the way yours did but you deserve. Normally when channels start out, the creator is still figuring things out from a video-making whereas your TH-cam videos are already at such high-quality. Looking forward to more. #steamdeck #steamdeckboiz
Ahh thank you so much mate, really appreciate it 🙏 I got very, very, very lucky, but I hope I can continue improving on the video quality over time 🤞 Have a great day!
Hey man! Ah dude you are so welcome. I hope you're okay and are safe my friend, really scary times at the moment. All my thoughts go out to you and I hope I can run some more donations soon. If you have any specific recommended organisations please let me know 🙏 All the best mate
You just have the best sense of humour and that you have music classes on skillshare is just such good timing. Especially hyped for the lo-fi production one, will check it out very soon! #steamdeckboiz (I hope it's ok I'm really a steam deck girl)
Thanks so much! 😄 Oh no way! You're on Skillshare?? That would be awesome if you wanted to check out my classes on there, I really hope they're useful for ya. Are you into music production then? Oh of course, the steamdeckgirls are 100% the MVP's here haha 😄
@@mike.barnes not on skillshare yet, but this might the course to get me there :) I used to be into music and music production but chose a different career path and neglected it for a long time. Trying to get back into it now!
There are a ton of channels that sprung up from the steamdeck hype, but yours is def one of the best. Most of them are boring and are reading the changenotes aloud as news. #steamdeckboiz
I did wonder how you managed to make such well produced vids for such a new TH-camr but it makes absolute sense now I know you honed your skills in skillshare. Keep it up bud, you're a hero.
I was looking up videos about the Steam Deck and i'm not a PC gamer but i do want to get a Steam Deck; and i watched your video and it wasn't overly long, you came across very "down to earth", and your views and opinions about just having a busy lifestyle and especially juggling wanting to game on your PC, but also trying to get in quality time with your other half really related to me, and i subbed you straight off just that one video and i never do that. Good luck with your channel i hope it continues to grow and you can get that P, make YT's crazy algorithm work for you. 👍
Hey Raiken, how's it going mate? Ahh dude thats so kind of you, thank you. So glad you're enjoying the vibe 🙏 Hope I can continue making videos you're into. Have a great day dude 😄
Thank you so much Adam, really appreciate it man 🙏 Honestly having a blast making videos. Hopefully they offer some value to people! Have a great day my man 😄
Your video is very inspiring and love the charity work you do with spreading the joy of music for special needs folks. I remember when I subbed to your channel you only had 34 subs but I was hooked on your first steam deck video. I just knew you we're onto something special and wanted to be apart of that. Great work and can't wait to see more steam deck content from you too. 🤙🏽#SteamDeckBoiz
Thank you my man! Just got yourself another sub ⭐️ Thats sick man! All you need right? I used my phone for the first two skillshare classes and it was super easy with great quality. Phones are believably good these days right?
Thank you so much for this highly informative video. As a new(-ish) content creator, this was both highly educational and entertaining. Keep up the great work! P.S., Found your channel through my home feed, presumably because the algo saw me doing research for my own??? *shifty eyes*
Keep up the great work! Picked up the Steam Deck around the time you posted the first video so I *had* to click on it when TH-cam recommended it. #steamdeckboiz
Thank you my man! So glad you've stuck around 😄 How're you finding the steam deck? I honestly have only played one or two games on console since getting it lol
Love the videos, so far. Great vibe, you come across as incredibly polite and gracious also. Keep doing what you’re doing, it’s a genuine treat to watch your carefully curated output. 👏🏾
Ah man 🥲 This was SO lovely of you to say. Thank you so much my dude 🙏 Really appreciate you taking the time to comment. So glad you're enjoying the videos. Have a great day my dude ⭐️
Awesome stuff Mike! Been amazing to see the channel grow so much in such a short time! You're so humble man I think everyone needs to be around your energy more often and it always puts a smile on my face to see a new video from you! #steamdeckboiz
Joshua! Congratulations, you won part of the giveaway 🥳 Thanks so much for getting involved 🙏 Whenever you're ready shoot me a message on Insta - mikebarnes1994 or email - mikerjbarnes@gmail.com. And I'll send you that gift card 😄 Have a great day!
#steamdeckboiz hey I appreciated your video so much! I got my Steamdeck around the time I think you did too, so our excitement for the device seemed in sync. It was perfect timing! You also have a great sense of humor 😀
Hey Jennifer! How're you? Ah it's honestly my pleasure 😄 It's so great right? I try not to be a materialist person, but sometimes something just comes along that is such a game changer right? Thank you! 😄
Just to put your channel into perspective dude; I don’t have a Steamdeck. Nor will I have the cash for a Steamdeck anytime soon, as much as I’d like one. Here because of your presentation and perspective. Keep on keeping on man 🤙
Hey Mike, super generous and kind what you're doing, but you should definitely keep what you earn from YT in the future. nothing wrong with that! But also... #steamdeckboiz
#steamdeckboiz I found you because even though when can't buy Steam Decks here in Latin America, I like watching every video about it. Came for the SD, stayed for your quality and humor. And speaking of latam, thanks for that milisecond of Tongo
Glad I could help my man! Thanks so much for sticking around my dude, massively appreciate it 😄 And glad you appreciated that couple seconds of Tongo 😉
Crazy to see how your progress on this channel, great to be part of that journey. Love your humor and the jokes you sparkle in there It's super kind of you to offer a giveaway and give the money you make on this to charity, it's really not necessary but it's super nice #steamdeckboiz
Thanks so much for being here and joining on that journey 😄 Massively appreciate it 🙏 Thank you, its such an honour to be paid to do this, but I would love to spread the benefit to all the cool people here too whenever possible 😊
You're doing so well, when I had a gaming channel years ago the max I made was 60 quid a month and that was after around 5 years of grinding lol Though to be fair... you could have described my TH-cam genre as 'Hey guys welcome to my minecraft video' 🤣
Your content is so humble, down-to-earth and just plain awesome! :D Seriously love your journey and you might have convinced me to sell my gaming laptop to pick up a steam deck and have a bunch of change left over :D #steamdeckboiz
Ah mate, thank you so so much 🙏 So glad you're enjoying the videos 😊 Ah man you should soo consider it! It's apparently abit of a pain to get windows working on it, but if you can I think you'll have everything you need! Also, just checked out your channel. YOUR VIDEOS ARE SO GOOD DUDE. I just finished reading call of cthulhu and absolutely love the cosmic horror genre. Great taste my man 😄
@@mike.barnes ahhh whattt?! That’s insane you checked out my videos haha thanks for that. I’ll be doing more storytelling/writing content for ttrpgs and narrative design (most of my freelance work) :) really appreciate it :)
I have always wondered how TH-cam monetisation works out for smaller channels as it has always seemed like a "secret" that content creators don't want to discuss, so thanks for this enlightening video! #steamdeckboiz
Came across your channel trying to make FFXIV work on my own Steam Deck and your vid was super useful so thank you! Onwards and upwards fellow warrior of light #steamdeckboiz
#steamdeckboiz This was so informative Mike! I've been playing with the idea of starting a channel for a while now and it's nice to get a little inside peek. I've always been curious about revenue from sponsorship as well, maybe you could delve into that in the future? Love your videos! 💝 Hey there are some #steamdeckgurlz here tooooooo 😝
Thanks Semia, really appreciate it 😄 Yes great shout! I haven't accepted any sponsors yet but if the right thing comes up and I think i'll give it a crack. If people like these kinda videos I'll do an update in six months time and delve into sponsors if I get the chance! Definitely start a channel! My only regret is not starting sooner. I've just subbed to your channel incase you do decide to post 😊 Have a great day Semia 🙏

This channel is so unbelievably underrated, the quality of your videos outshines even the biggest youtubers with a big crew of peopke and to think that you do this channel by yourself and make videos of this standard baffles me. I thoroughly enjoyed every single on of your amazing videos and got super exited when i saw that notification pop up that you had posted another! keep at it, you are amazing #steamdeckboiz

I found you from the SteamDeck videos but stayed for all the rest of your content. Love what you're doing. :-)
DUDE WHAT DA HECK?!? This is so so so insanely kind of you. You honestly never ever have to give me money, but I’m so incredibly humbled for the gesture🙏🏼 I’ll put this towards something to improve the channel, unless you would like me to pass this onto the Ukrainian charity I mentioned? Thanks again man, this made me emotional 🙏🏼 Have a wonderful day
@@mike.barnes you seem like a really genuine guy, so I will leave it to you as what you put it too. I’ll be happy with whatever you choose. Thanks for the reply. Have a great day too. 👍🏻
#steamdeckboiz love watching your videos when they come up, it's great that you gotten such quick success cuz you've definitely earned it
Thanks so much man 🙏 It's a pleasure making them! Honestly Im still bewildered that this is happening, so overwhelmed hahaha. Good luck on the giveaway mate, have a great day 😊
Love the style and humour in your videos, especially the Steam deck ones. However these videos have cost me money in that I now own a Steam Deck… so thanks for that Mike 😂. Nice to see your charity donation too 🙌🏻 #steamdeckboiz
Thanks so much man! So glad you're enjoying the videos. Hahaha I would say im sorry about that...but im not 😎 How're you finding the deck so far??
Really enjoying following your channel evolving from the first video on. Thanks for sharing all your experiences in an honest & funny way at the same time! #steamdeckboiz
Thanks so much man! It’s my pleasure 😄 Really appreciate you sticking around 🙏🏼
#steamdeckboiz your channel is a breath of fresh air and my partner and I always take the time to watch your videos. Thanks for the insight into adsense, it was helpful for someone like myself who is teetering on the precipice to setting up a channel for themselves. All the Best Mike & Hannah!
Ah dude, so incredibly kind of you guys. So lovely both you and your partner watch together 😄 Tell her I said hello! Definitely start a a channel my man, my biggest regret is not starting sooner. I've just subbed incase you decide to post 😊 Have a great day dude ⭐️
Found your content through binging Steam Deck videos, and subscribed because you seemed like just a genuine dude. Plus your relaxing voice is such a nice change of pace from the usual gaming channel. 😂 Keep up the good work! #SteamDeckBoiz
Thank you so much man! Incredibly kind of you 😊 Hahahah thank you, maybe ill do some asmr 😂
Great video, really informative for the breakdown of all the different behind the scenes youtube going ons. Congrats on the channel growth, long may it continue. #steamdeckboiz
Hey man! Ive been subbed to you when you made your first steam deck vid and i gotta say, your production value and your personality are absolutely top tier 🥰 love the work homie
Ps. I want you to succeed soooo badly 🤞
Hey man! How're you doing? Ah dude thats really kind of you, thank you 😊 Its honestly a pleasure, thanks so much for sticking around 🙏
@@mike.barnes I’m great! Absolutely dude, keep up the great vids and I’ll continue watching 😁
Always enternaining and informative. Your passion for making these videos shows in the quality of the outcome. I really hope it doesn't wear out and you continue to have fun, and us with you. #steamdeckboiz
So glad you're enjoying them man! Hypes me up to make more 😄 Totally, I think the big key is to have fun with the videos, luckily I absolutely love making them. Thank you so much for taking the time to comment man, I really appreciate it. Have a great day dude! ⭐️
Enjoying your videos - you called it - saw you from your steam deck video - glad to hear you are earning something back! #steamdeckboiz
Keep up the great work. Came here for from your steam deck videos but have stayed because you seem like an awesome guy. Thanks!
#steamdeckboiz
Thank you so much dude! Incredibly kind of you. Thank you for taking the time to be so nice. Hope you have a great day man 😊
I discovered you from your steam deck video, but honestly since the quality is so amazing, I've just kept watching since I'm curious about what you'll put out next! Really enjoying the editing and the humour. #steamdeckboiz
Love the vibe of your channel and happy to be here for the journey! #steamdeckboiz
Thank you dude! Massively appreciate you sticking with me for the journey 😄
This is the clearest definition of transparency. #steamdeckboiz
⚡GUYS⚡
To say I'm overwhelmed would be an understatement. I was so close to not posting this as I thought it would be super slimy and vain but your reaction has been SO unbelievably kind. THANK YOU 🙏 Its truly such a honour to know that you're enjoying the videos despite it being a non steam deck related.
Also two more people donated to my charity TIME which is absolutely INSANE. 🤯 George and Steve I honestly cannot thank you enough. You are truly the BEST BOIS 🙏
Thanks again dudes, I appreciate you all more than you know.
Have a awesome day ⭐
#steamdeckboiz #steamdeckgurlz
1st thing I remember feeling and saying to myself, the very 1st time I saw you in one of your video, is how sweet and kind you came across and I can tell quite quickly and usually get it right 😊 You should really consider mentioning and talk about your charity a bit more often or even do some or a series of videos just about it. Everything happens for a reason... by your charity work getting more exposure all the people you've been helping will benefit from it and very likely you'll be able to reach and help a lot more 😉👍
Keep up the good work 🖖#steamdeckboiz
Hey Gluca! How're you doing? Ah dude this was such a lovely comment for you to leave 🥲 Thank you so, so much! You're so right, I think I'm going to use my outro to mention the charity in future videos to help spread the word. But id also looove to do a series on how I started it up as its actually quite straight forward and I think lots of people should consider starting up non profits/charities as its soo gratifying and you can even turn it into your job! Thanks again bud, really appreciate you taking the time to comment! Have a wonderful day ⭐️
@@mike.barnes My pleasure. Wish you, everyone around you and all the people you reached and will reach in the future, the very best 🖖😘👍
You seem like a really good dude man - I found your steam deck video a week or two ago and slowly the algo has been serving me up the rest of your videos... really enjoying the videos and your journey
#steamdeckboiz
Great content my man. I found you a little while back from your Steam Deck is my favourite console vid, when I just got my deck. Love the chill vibe, keep the SD vids coming!
Thanks so much my man 🙏 Really appreciate it. New steam deck video incoming 🚀
Your videos are great and this level of transparency is really refreshing. I look forward in seeing how much you'll grow and evolve. Keep it up
I’m glad your channel is doing well! I bumped into it while scrolling through Steam Deck videos, and I just had to subscribe. You’ve got a great personality, editing skills, and such, so I can totally foresee your channel becoming huge in the near future.
Keep up the good work! #STEAMDECKBOIZ
So kind my man 🙏 I feel honoured, thank you 😊
Love the steam deck videos been watching for about a month now! Thanks for the entertainment 😂 #steamdeckboiz
Glad you like them! 😄
Your channel is great and I am really impressed by the content.. The amount of fun and energy behind it is just astounding. 🖤 Looking forward what you'll do next. #steamdeckboiz
Hey Martin, how's it going man? Ahh dude thats so kind of you, thank you. Im so glad its coming across like that as I honestly have a blast making these videos. Have a great day dude! ⭐️
I found your channel only recently - but you've really inspired me to get back to making videos on my channel, after losing the motivation. I've set myself the modest goal to reach 1K subs this year.
Ah dude I’m sooo glad to hear that! I’m certain if you stay somewhat consistent and try your best to improve little by little with every video you’ll easily hit that target before the end of the year 😊 +1 sub from me
@@mike.barnes Thank you♥️
Pretty interesting of the statistics of a relatively new monetized channel. Congrats on the success of your hard work 👍
Thank you my man! ⭐️
Love what you've been doing with the channel! Glad I subbed after seeing your steam deck video and I'm looking forward to more videos from you #steamdeckboiz
Thanks so much my dude! So glad you stuck around 😄
Another great video. I stumbled onto your channel through TH-cam autoplay, which I usually have turned off. Thankfully this time it turned out great.
You seem like a really genuine dude, keep up the great work. #steamdeckboiz
Oh no way 😂 Thank you TH-cam autoplay hahaha. Thank so much Nigel, really appreciate the kindness mate
Love the quality of your channel, but mostly how down to earth you are. The content anyways feels like a nice warm hug.. #steamdeckboiz
Incredibly kind mate, thank you so much 🙏 So glad that the videos are spreading good vibes. Thanks for sending those good vibes right back 😄
I started following you because of you steam deck video. I received my steam deck a few months ago, and I’ve been watching a lot of videos about it. I really liked yours so I decided to subscribe #steamdeckboiz
The donation to TIME was well deserved. I hope more people are able to donate to such an amazing project! Thanks for being here Mike 😀
Dude was that you?!?! Honestly man, you have no idea how much it moved me to see that donation pop up the other week. So, so, so kind 🙏 And another donation? 🥲 Mate, I don't deserve this hahaha. Will be forever grateful man, thank you, thank you, thank you ⭐️
@@mike.barnes Yeah it was! I don't know why I clicked anonymous, didn't mean to do that. You do deserve it though :)! Keep it up man 😄
Looking forward too watching every upload mate! Such underrated content.. love the work keep it up! #steamdeckboiz
Incredibly kind my man, thank you so much. Feels scary to post non steam deck related content but I'm so glad you've stuck around. Really appreciate it dude 🙏
What I really enjoy about you channel is that it's clear you're just doing this for fun. You're super transparent too. Also they feel a bit effortlessly funny. Thanks for all that you. #steamdeckboiz
Thank you soo much man 🙏 Im so glad that comes across as I honestly have a blast making videos, doesn't feel like work at all! Have a great day my dude 😊
Your Info about the Deck influenced me to actually buy one and i couldn’t be happier. So thank you for all the help on that! #steamdeckboiz
Ah yes dude!! It's so great right? How're you finding it so far?
@@mike.barnes Its everything i expected and more! I really dont have a single bad thing to say minus maybe the input lag when you try to play it on a TV, which is not really a big deal 🤷♂️ i’m just glad it lives up to its name, my current gaming platform is PS5 and its honestly just utterly disappointing.
#steamdeckboiz
This is fully deserved man, I have enjoyed all of your videos so far. You seem like a genuine humble guy and deserve all the success that comes your way. Keep it up mate 👊🏻
#steamdeckboiz Great and insightful video there Mike. Discovered you from your amazing steam deck video which was the final push I needed to buy my own! Keep up the great content, you deserve all your success!
Thank you so much my man 🙏 Oh sweet! How're you finding the steam deck so far??
You are right, it's so rare for channels to blow up so early in the way yours did but you deserve. Normally when channels start out, the creator is still figuring things out from a video-making whereas your TH-cam videos are already at such high-quality. Looking forward to more. #steamdeck #steamdeckboiz
Ahh thank you so much mate, really appreciate it 🙏 I got very, very, very lucky, but I hope I can continue improving on the video quality over time 🤞 Have a great day!
Hello from Ukraine and thank you for donating, man!
Hey man! Ah dude you are so welcome. I hope you're okay and are safe my friend, really scary times at the moment. All my thoughts go out to you and I hope I can run some more donations soon. If you have any specific recommended organisations please let me know 🙏 All the best mate
You just have the best sense of humour and that you have music classes on skillshare is just such good timing. Especially hyped for the lo-fi production one, will check it out very soon! #steamdeckboiz (I hope it's ok I'm really a steam deck girl)
Thanks so much! 😄 Oh no way! You're on Skillshare?? That would be awesome if you wanted to check out my classes on there, I really hope they're useful for ya. Are you into music production then? Oh of course, the steamdeckgirls are 100% the MVP's here haha 😄
@@mike.barnes not on skillshare yet, but this might the course to get me there :) I used to be into music and music production but chose a different career path and neglected it for a long time. Trying to get back into it now!
There are a ton of channels that sprung up from the steamdeck hype, but yours is def one of the best. Most of them are boring and are reading the changenotes aloud as news. #steamdeckboiz
Thank you my man, incredibly kind of you to say 🙏 Have a great day dude
When I have watched that video i did not notice how small was this channel, awesome quality man! #steamdeckboiz
Thank you Daniele! Massively appreciate it 😄
I did wonder how you managed to make such well produced vids for such a new TH-camr but it makes absolute sense now I know you honed your skills in skillshare. Keep it up bud, you're a hero.
Also whens your next stream dude? #steamdeckboiz
@@joshmoss8977 That experience really helped me out! Too kind man, thank you 🙏 I'd love to do one again soon! Had such a good time with the last one 🔥
I was looking up videos about the Steam Deck and i'm not a PC gamer but i do want to get a Steam Deck; and i watched your video and it wasn't overly long, you came across very "down to earth", and your views and opinions about just having a busy lifestyle and especially juggling wanting to game on your PC, but also trying to get in quality time with your other half really related to me, and i subbed you straight off just that one video and i never do that.
Good luck with your channel i hope it continues to grow and you can get that P, make YT's crazy algorithm work for you. 👍
Hey Raiken, how's it going mate? Ahh dude thats so kind of you, thank you. So glad you're enjoying the vibe 🙏 Hope I can continue making videos you're into. Have a great day dude 😄
So refreshing to see someone make content just for the joy of it. Hope to see you have continued success and happiness, Mike! #steamdeckboiz
Thank you so much Adam, really appreciate it man 🙏 Honestly having a blast making videos. Hopefully they offer some value to people! Have a great day my man 😄
I didn't think I'd join the giveaway, but I guess it wouldn't hurt. Thanks for the interesting video and the laughs. #steamdeckboiz
You never know ehy? Its my pleasure, thank you for watching and sticking around 😄
Congrats Mike!! Will be at 10k in no time!
Thank you so much man!
Your video is very inspiring and love the charity work you do with spreading the joy of music for special needs folks. I remember when I subbed to your channel you only had 34 subs but I was hooked on your first steam deck video. I just knew you we're onto something special and wanted to be apart of that. Great work and can't wait to see more steam deck content from you too. 🤙🏽#SteamDeckBoiz
Ah thank you so much man 🙏 Woah 34th sub! Thank you so much for jumping on board so early 🙏 Have a great day dude
Thanks mate. Great tips! I’ve been making vids for 7 years just past 4k subs, I still just use my phone to film & edit! 😂
Thank you my man! Just got yourself another sub ⭐️ Thats sick man! All you need right? I used my phone for the first two skillshare classes and it was super easy with great quality. Phones are believably good these days right?
This was really interesting, thanks. I hope you keep up the great work.
Thank you so much for this highly informative video. As a new(-ish) content creator, this was both highly educational and entertaining. Keep up the great work! P.S., Found your channel through my home feed, presumably because the algo saw me doing research for my own??? *shifty eyes*
You're so welcome man! So glad it was useful for ya 😄 Oh nice mate! Just checked your channel, awesome work man keep it up! Subbed 😎
@@mike.barnes Thanks so much for the sub and kind words! I'll be sure to stick around~

Thank you Ari, massively appreciate it mate 🙏
Keep up the great work! Picked up the Steam Deck around the time you posted the first video so I *had* to click on it when TH-cam recommended it. #steamdeckboiz
Thank you my man! So glad you've stuck around 😄 How're you finding the steam deck? I honestly have only played one or two games on console since getting it lol
Been loving the content! I found you from Steam Deck videos but keep coming back for the lulz. #steamdeckboiz

Just to put your channel into perspective dude; I don’t have a Steamdeck. Nor will I have the cash for a Steamdeck anytime soon, as much as I’d like one. Here because of your presentation and perspective. Keep on keeping on man 🤙

Thank you man 🙏 Makes me feel much less slimy for posting this!

I found you because even though when can't buy Steam Decks here in Latin America, I like watching every video about it.
Came for the SD, stayed for your quality and humor.

You're doing so well, when I had a gaming channel years ago the max I made was 60 quid a month and that was after around 5 years of grinding lol
Though to be fair... you could have described my TH-cam genre as 'Hey guys welcome to my minecraft video' 🤣
Wholesome boi only gets more wholesome, go Mike!
Your content is so humble, down-to-earth and just plain awesome! :D Seriously love your journey and you might have convinced me to sell my gaming laptop to pick up a steam deck and have a bunch of change left over :D #steamdeckboiz
Ah mate, thank you so so much 🙏 So glad you're enjoying the videos 😊 Ah man you should soo consider it! It's apparently abit of a pain to get windows working on it, but if you can I think you'll have everything you need!
Also, just checked out your channel. YOUR VIDEOS ARE SO GOOD DUDE. I just finished reading call of cthulhu and absolutely love the cosmic horror genre. Great taste my man 😄
@@mike.barnes ahhh whattt?! That’s insane you checked out my videos haha thanks for that. I’ll be doing more storytelling/writing content for ttrpgs and narrative design (most of my freelance work) :) really appreciate it :)
I have always wondered how TH-cam monetisation works out for smaller channels as it has always seemed like a "secret" that content creators don't want to discuss, so thanks for this enlightening video!
