It's funny seeing old Scott right next to new Scott. The quality was always good, but it is very apparent that he has made serious efforts to improve everything.
Scott: Here's an hour and a half long video about stickers Nintendo puts on their boxes. Me: Thank you for this bountiful feast, you are a generous soul and I love you.
I remember another one of these labels, the “Nintendo Selects” line, and I hope these discounted games come back for the switch. Update 1: Well, looks like there’s some rumors about Nintendo Selects coming back for the Switch. If this ends up being true, I’ll be so excited!
It's a diagnosisbthat gets thrown around a lot, but I wonder if you transcribed this video and gave it to a therapist, how many times they'd slam it with a stamp reading "OCD".
seeing someone know wtf picross 3d is amazing. that game KICKED MY ASS as a kid, whenever i'd play on my sisters ds lite. so happy to see someone actually liked it too
Super Famicom boxes would send you into outright *apoplexy.* The box art is orders of magnitude superior to the NA and EUR releases, but holy fuck! One long edge of the box has the game logo, the other has the Super Famicom trade dress, the game ID, and (optionally) a smaller version of the game logo... Though *no one seems to agree on which side is which.* So if you want consistent spine-facing, your games will face all sorts of different directions, seemingly at random. What's worse is that some developers can't decide whether box art should be landscape or portrait orientation. The majority is portrait, but then you've got devs like Square who put out many a game with landscape orientation box art... And it's not even *all* Square games, either! If it was, you could forgive it, you know? Just put all the Square games on one shelf! Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, Romancing SaGa, Front Mission... All landscape... But then games like the Seiken Densetsu series and Hanjuku Hero are portrait...just for shits and giggles! Even with the SFC launch titles the wheels had already come off the wagon... Gradius III was in landscape orientation *and* fucked up the trade dress versus logo spine display compared to all Nintendo's first-party games.
Everyone in the comments regurgitate scotthewoz manuerisms its kinda disturbing to me tbh. Take me back to the days of scottthewoz having like 6k subs, and started to explode because of a jontron subreddit takeover. This man became a meme back then it was legendary
The original PlayStations Greatest Hits was the epitome of discounted games. It was a big reason why Sony was so successful. Everyone else including themselves tried to recapture that magic later down the road.
36:01 my dad had one of these and gave it to me as a kid. Knowing what it is now I am incredibly pissed because I left it out in the rain on my play set outside and it was totaled :(
I understand the problem when your organizing the games alphabetically, but for me it makes the most sense to organize my games by release date. But I'm only collecting a few games (all Sonic games plus whatever outside of those I want) so it makes more sense to order them by release
I just noticed the European versions of wii games have different spines. All the fonts are exactly the same like the switch and even on the nintendo selects versions we don’t have an emblem of some sorts.
You must see our PAL snes and n64 Nintendo Classics 😭, they s**k (spoiler: we had reprint also for NES games, like Zelda... which was reprinted as a... normal grey and not gold cartridge 🫣😵💫)
Of all the discount games I thought the GameCube yellow okay. That yellow is the same they use in clearance aisles so it makes sense that it’s that color because it’s a discounted game. The rest i have no idea the reasoning.
A lot of my ps2 games were the burgundy ones , we didn't really buy videogames a lot so i was a little late to getting a PS2. Some really great memories. Also why hasn't taito rereleased taito legends?!
Time to wash down the last 5 hours of watching Scott the Woz with another hour and a half of Scott’s Snippets
Which is just what we need after more Scott the Woz.
Which is just what we need after... more Scott the Woz!
Which is just what we need - after more Scott the Woz
Which is just what we need after...more Scott the Woz
Which is just what we need after... more Scott the Woz
all im saying is i’ve never seen scott the woz and scott’s snippets in the same room together
That sneaky Scott's stash guy too
yeah I've got my suspicions about that mf @@Heather420

It's kind of wild how consistent his methodology he uses when making videos has been. Was he born with a video making template or something?
his writing is generally better. been following him for years and it's cool to see where he is currently

Every Scott the woz compilation makes my day a little bit better
The biggest compilation of deception ive seen since the creation of social media.
"That's not a bat, those are boobs!"
Just wait till you look at Sonic Adventure 2, Wott The Scoz.
Holy sh*t, I love bread! Thank god this tutorial worked so well
i sure do love ranting about video game marketing
Sweet, yet another compilation of Scott the Woz vids I can add to my sleepy vids playlist
this a long ass snippet
I remember another one of these labels, the “Nintendo Selects” line, and I hope these discounted games come back for the switch.

Yeah, 60 dollars for a 7 year old game is kinda outrageous imo
cant wait for the wiiware/dsiware compilation
I like how your legs are mostly hidden. Im glad you got them under control. Thats "great marketing". Well done team, and mustache guy.......i guess🤔.
We usually refer to him as "summers eve guy" 👍
I like the difference between Scott's idea of 20 dollars and actual 20 dollars.
It's a diagnosisbthat gets thrown around a lot, but I wonder if you transcribed this video and gave it to a therapist, how many times they'd slam it with a stamp reading "OCD".
8:56 I have never seen a stand alone copy of JSRF. I always seen it bundled with Sega GT. I'm shocked
I didnt realise this was an hour and a half long lol
nice thumbnail scott

I love all the effort you put into this

Scott talks about words on boxes for an hour and a half.
you could always print out your own custom game package wrapper and slip it into the sleeve
High pass filter please.. That backround humm is quite loud trough speakers :)
I feel like 3d classics could fit here
Yeah, it’s weird that video isn’t here :/
i love you , Scott !!
As someone who has a ton of manga, yes, spines.
Thanks for the video!!!
Given the very weird and very clearly bs rumors of Nintendo Selects coming out, this compilation came out at an interesting time.
The original PlayStations Greatest Hits was the epitome of discounted games. It was a big reason why Sony was so successful. Everyone else including themselves tried to recapture that magic later down the road.
My Scott The Woz box collection is all screwed up by these Scott The Woz Compilation boxes!
36:01 my dad had one of these and gave it to me as a kid. Knowing what it is now I am incredibly pissed because I left it out in the rain on my play set outside and it was totaled :(
I’d have sent you to the moon 🤣
honestly, i think i'd literally kill for those famicom collection boxes. the coolest collectibles i've ever seen.
and, the rest of the video is good.
This will make a fine addition to my collection
When you say Mobile Suit Z Gundam out loud the Z is meant to be “Zeta”.
Metroid new play control reminds me of one of those arcade games at Dave and busters
I understand the problem when your organizing the games alphabetically, but for me it makes the most sense to organize my games by release date. But I'm only collecting a few games (all Sonic games plus whatever outside of those I want) so it makes more sense to order them by release
Fun, fun, fun!
Why am I surprised that Scott would have a VCR?
Hi I'm british, I had bomberman on the Amiga, except he was known as dynablaster there ha. He was on loads of platforms, yeah not a Nintendo creation
The 3rd boss in Sifu has me stumped, I've started the fight as low as age 25 but I just get smoked on phase 2 and can't figure out her patterns 😢
I think seeing the original Dragon Quest on Classic NES would have been cool but I may be biased 😂
WELCOME

Time for Scott to stall even longer for the Wii U part 2 video which he said would be a few days late but now has been over a week late
1:53 HOLY FUCK IS THAT MADWORLD
the title should of just been called “nintendo rereleases” instead and that’s it
You are handsome and cheeky.
he is isn't he
I took this as a random compliment. I needed it thank you so much
Of all the discount games I thought the GameCube yellow okay. That yellow is the same they use in clearance aisles so it makes sense that it’s that color because it’s a discounted game. The rest i have no idea the reasoning.
Wait, there was a Seaman 2?
For old people or not- I would fight someone for a picross 3D rerelease on the switch.
i love when scott calls me "honey", it's so cute
This guy gets it. Wait what I have OCD 😅
If you think about it, Twilight Princess on Wii was the original New Play Control game
If anybody caught it
Konami = ultra 🤣🤣
Personally I separate my greatest hits from the regulars for better style
Real fans remember when this had no custom thumbnail
Succulent blue border in this vid
bread.
Anyways can I have the files of that marketing video i wanna transfer it to actual VHS
39:06
Lolol
Crazy that you call an hour and a half video a snippet.
A lot of my ps2 games were the burgundy ones , we didn't really buy videogames a lot so i was a little late to getting a PS2. Some really great memories. Also why hasn't taito rereleased taito legends?!
1:04:46
Wow, Scott the Woz made a political joke
wowie!
Why is this more than an hour long bro smh
Yeah....they should have kept fire emblem in Japan. The overwhelming vast majority of people couldn't care less about it. It's just not that good.
horrendous take
12:05
re release xbox 360 games would be forward compatible with Xbox 1 >]
12:09
33:16
Yo
Should just get used to the label thing there always gonna do stuff like that. And whats wrong with yellow?
you dont have to print the pdf to read it, weird flex
