i think we all want to see more footage of dan as a child
Yes definitely, it is great to see it from him.
+eddy friday PLEASE WE NEED MORE FOOTAGE OF HIM D:
He should be here not Ashens or Da- wait a second...
+eddy friday he was so cute :3 I want to see more kids nowadays with huge ass glasses like his
+eddy friday MOAR FOOTAGE
Things i learned today.
1) Dan has a sister
2) Sonic the Hedgehog has a debug mode.
My only question:
How would i activate the debug mode in the sonic genesis collection version on ps3?
I think Dans sister is Hannah Hardcastle on twitter but I'm not 100% sure. The debug mode was probably removed in the ps3 version but again I'm not 100% sure.
Robert Tucker - (shadykillar123) FUCK
+RedLightningTheLegend My question: How would I get access to more home videos from miniCubed?
Trophonix fuck knows
RedLightningTheLegend Whats wrong? haha
Ashens does a fantastic Dan impression. Like it sounds like Nerd3. He's fucking amazing
That's Dan.
+Bigbangkamehameha 2K15 no u r
+Tre Had OK....
+Bigbangkamehameha 2K15 In his "Nerd^3 is changing... NOW" video, Dan said he was being replaced by Ashens as a joke. That's why everyone is mentioning him now :D
+Bigbangkamehameha 2K15 Im PRETTY sure that was sarcasm, just a hunch
26:55,
IT'S SO ADORABLE I'M GONNA DIE
Chibicubed will rule the internet
+Dizzynoodlegamer Can we please call him Tiny Dan.
+ejisonfire319 TINY DAN RULES!
little nerd
+Stan Claas and hearing Dad cubed as the stereotypical dad :3
Steve sounds exactly the fucking same in the home video.
+concon09090 Truuueee
I agree
Dan's on the other hand sounds really high pitched. It's fucking adorable.
+concon09090 Well, unlike dan he didn't go though puberty since that video
Steve is actually immortal, so decades and centuries mean nothing to the permanent fixture that is DadCubed.
Already with the retro gaming, Ashens moves fast doesn't he? Incoming Amstrad Let's Play series!
But damn, he does Dans voice so well.
EDIT: Loved doing that debug cheat in Sonic 2, forcing Super Sonic, so awesome.
wow. that was funny. I'm joking. it wasn't. it wasn't funny.
Meh, each to their own. Worked on the Twitter video =p
+LeiFlux07 You could debug Sonic 3 as well but it was a lot harder to do.
+LeiFlux07 Either you didn't watch the end of the Nerd3 twitch chat freak the fuck out video or you think he double trolled us. At the end, Nerd3 reveals it will still be him.
+Hayden Ware hehehe dumbass.
I thought Dan was saying upsy, downsy, rightsy, leftsy. But I now realize he is saying up c, down c, left c, right c.
Same
You're not alone at all.
+Ervin Raduly HOLY CRAP..... Did not notice that....
Dan and his sister were precious at the end, and Dad Cubed interacting with them was also very cute.
***** Nah, just a robot who has trouble comprehending human emotion and relationships.
Without the intro it's like walking into a room full of people without saying hello. That's quite impolite may I say.
+Jeff Fabiano I do.
+Jeff Fabiano I love what he says
I do
Aha! Screw you Jeff!
+Segimaru HELLO PROCRASTIN- *Starts crying and turns house into an aquarium*
Wonder if that Sonic plushie Dan got for Christmas in 1994 was the same one he used for the Harry Potter Kinect video
Hayden Stock RIP Burnie McBurnerson
And so a new series is born. Be welcome NerdCubed Loves.
+Artur Araújo What about nerdcubed loves Just Cus 3
+Artur Araújo Bows down to artur, just cause
+MrRockboy222 And Just Cause 3?
MrRockboy222 Wait, that was a "Plays".
***** He said Just "Cus" 3.
Dan: Most people knew about the level select cheat
Me: SONIC HAD CHEAT CODES?!
Ashens got consistent
+Callum Gilbey If only Sonic had a sofa
+vooran Eyyyyy
brage lundsten Yo!
+vooran That was all i had to say really.
+Callum Gilbey There will come a day when the Ashens jokes get old.
Today is not that day.
Legend has it that Dan was born with those glasses and foofy hair
Since Dan's not doing it anymore I'll provide the intro.....
HELLOOOOOOO PROCRASTINATORS!!!!!!!!!!!!
+PcJoe243 AGAIN!
+PcJoe243 Just let it die.
+Superiodity No... I'll just spam Dan and ask him to put the intro back :3
+Fried Chicken :D if you do that you'll look like an ass. :D
+Superiodity It will never die.
Dan and his sister unwrapping sonic and tails soft toys may be the cutest thing you will ever see.
Little NerdCubed at the end :')
+Tom Monty ;)
+Tom Monty Look at his glasses! Fantastic!
Don't forget little banana cubed. She was so cute when she hugged the tails toy xD
+Tom Monty NerdSquared :3
+Ben Gibson NerdReciprocalled
We now know 100% Dan isn't lying about his name like some people suspect, his mum says 'what did you get Dan?' At the end
I don't think anyone every accused him of lying about his name
+Llorrac TN You're new here, aren't you? lol
+Jontheawsome92 And his sister said "Daniel!".
i think more people were suspicious of his last name
+Jontheawsome92 He lies about his last name, which he says is Hardcastle
BABBY DAN!
+Joe Wilson-Palmer Babby Dan? :P
vooran BABBY DAN PLAYING SONIC IN THE VIDEOS
***** OH BABBY DAN! HE BE A CUT WIDDLE FING
vooran DAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
I loved Steve saying "crikey!" Made my day
aww man, im gonna miss the 'all other music is in-game music. it makes me want to...'
I miss it to
It makes me want to miss it too.
As he said in the last ditch effort for hit n run "it makes we want to kill off this couch gag"
Daniel MacKinnon aww, i just thought it was bye to HELLO PROCRASTINATORS and the different sierieses. i REALLY enjoyed that,when i joined i went BACK and watched the others to see those.
Good to know Dan and his dad haven't changed since 1994
The intro is so nice. The three being dropped off by the heart that is in time with the music, brilliant.
This video feels wrong without the "hello procrastinators"
We'll get used to it.... I guess.....
+Ultimate Spoopynator That's horrible. It's his life and videos. He can do what he wants. You shouldn't ruin his job because you can't get used to one tiny thing.
+Gaming'sLeastGreat So jumping straight to topic without an intro makes it smooth? How about no. It just feels like he is throwing the video to our faces, but what can you do? We'll get used to it.
+Sean Freeman It was a good idea to remove it. Like Dan said, the intro was a creative comfort zone. The hello procrastinators intro thing was making him fall into a pattern. By removing that, it forces him to think on his feet. Also, there IS an intro, it's just a very short animation with the sounds of the game in the background. So it's not just "throwing the video to our faces", +Charoula1608. Like Dan, I usually just skip intros if they're over like 5-6 seconds long. If I go to watch a video and it starts with 10 seconds of dubstep and a strung out intro animation, I just find another youtuber to watch lol
Trophonix
Yeah because a few word intro is so long that you have to skip it. /sarcasm.
It definitely doesn't have to be the same words, I get it, and the intro of the game is cool visually, but the audio isn't smooth at all, just jumping straight to the topic doesn't sound nice to my ears. Yes, you read it. MY ears. MY opinion.
I kept replaying the opening 'nerd³' sequence because it was so damn pleasing to the eye. Your editing skills have really kicked up a notch when it comes to little details! I did notice some details in your older videos but this is next level, well fucking done on the reboot.
Could we have footage of Dan as a child on the IRL channel as like a weekly thing? Called maybe NerdCubed's time capsule or something? I would watch that so badly!
Oh my god little dan is the most precious thing i swear i could just die after witnessing that
"It's Sonic AND Knuckles"
I have been here for 2 years now, and i didn't know he had a sister...
That's understandable.
Been here since the shitty old vlogging days, didn't know that either.
+PS4 Games on a shelf I've only noticed her being brought up recently in Dadcubed's Q&A, and this video right here.
+PS4 Games on a shelf There's a video of Dadcubed playing against Dan's sister over on his channel. They're playing soul calibre if you're interested.
+PS4 Games on a shelf same, old vlogging days were charming though
I wonder what Steve from the home videos would have thought if someone told him in 20 years he'd be playing games for a million people with Dan...
Just a thought

what is your profile pic?
Rainer Kuusik It's supposed to look like a big-toe coming up from the ocean, covering the three lined sun.
vooran oh ok now i get it
+Rainer Kuusik hairy nipple
vooran HAIRY NIPPLE
The outro is too cute for words. Nerdcubed and his sister getting their plush dolls are just too adorable.
All other music is in game music, it makes me want to see more BABBY DAN
The footage of Dan at the end, and you hear his dad's voice, imagine that from his point of view, remembering your son opening sonic teddies on Christmas and seeing that same footage years later when he's a famous TH-camr on this magical thing called the internet and has over 2 million subscribers.
So beautiful *sniff sniff* little cubed 1995, 20 year old footage, holy hell.....
I cried when I saw that
Absolutely adorable the little Dan opening his presents :D And I think I found your secret; you were actually born with those glasses :D
those glasses...
born to nerd³
Fun fact: Using the debug mode on Sonic 2 (Jesus, I remember my excitement waiting for it's release on "Sonic Twosday"), spamming waterfalls like crazy and turning back into Sonic, overloaded the MegaDrive's RAM and corrupted the colour palette turning Sonic green and black. He looked totally badass.
Please... please say it... Greet me in the correct way... please...
***** OoOoOoOH YEEEAH that's the stuff
+David Byrne Consult a doctor. I believe you have an unhealthy addiction.
I CAN'T HELP IT. I'm a procrastaholic
Poppycock! It's over! You must fight the habit! The longer we deny it the more we suffer T_T
+Gaming'sLeastGreat hey! I Enjoy you're videos!
Those videos are probably some of the most personal (non game related) things dan has shared with us. He wants a clear border between personal life and youtube life and I can respect that
(not saying someone can't).
Isn't there a new sonic game coming out?
Take your bets people, will it be a Nerd³ Loves, or a Nerd³ Hates?
+Joe Wilson-Palmer Nerd³ Haifisch
nerd³ hates
Razorswiftz Yeah, Nerd³ Meh
+Joe Wilson-Palmer Sonic Boom: Fire and Ice will most definitely be Hates.
+Joe Wilson-Palmer Neather... It sound be on Nerd³ Tests! ;)
You still had that unique sound in your voice as young as 3 or so years old, and you are one exited man about sonic.
Has anyone noticed that the:
All other music is game music... It makes me want to ... something something something
has gone away? RIP GAME MUSIC DESCRIPTION
I still have my old genisis. tragically I do not have a TV to play it on. damn you technology and your advances over 30 years!
Ashens said he'd introduce some retro games to the channel.
yay will
I think the reason old soundtracks no are so memorable is because they don't have 15 instruments, vocals and a lot of beats, they were all really short memorable beats.
I would recommend uploading in 60fps for retro games, because there are a lot of 30fps flashes in these old games, and they tend to go away when exported in 30fps.
A Dadcubed vlog before Dadcubed
the end clip is literally a Dadcubed prequel
bit music themes are memorable because their simpler to remember, does that mean their better?
+JesterBe3 What about any song from undertale?
well if you listen it's more or less 8 bit music with some extra tune on top
+JesterBe3 it depends on what you find better. But if you want the themesong to become a classic, simplicity is the way to go.
JesterBe3 Also it's a specific taste of music, I adore it.
+JesterBe3 I don't think it's just that they're simple to remember, although that could help them in being so memorable they get burnt into your very essence.
I think somebody once described old chiptunes as being better mainly due to the technical limitations meaning that good composers had to make tunes with incredible melodies, rather than being able to produce movie-like epic, atmospheric and/or ambient soundtracks. I would agree with this notion, myself.
Dan brought up a good example to contrast against in Uncharted. Yeah, the theme tune is pretty memorable, but the rest was just kind of background noise that set the tone. It's not that it's bad, on the contrary it's actually quite good, but it isn't memorable.
I'll bring up what I think is one of the best examples of the classic stuff: the soundtrack to Mega Man 7. It's especially nice, because the SNES was in the butter zone. Not as limited as previous consoles (or the Seyga Genesis/Seegah Megadrive's "Crackling Ass" brand soundchip, which was pretty awful in essentially everything except Sonic games to my knowledge), which resulted in much better soundtracks, yet still limited and still early in the lifetime of modern videogames so it still had great melodies because that was the norm for good composers. Just listen to Forgotten Factory (AKA Junk Man's stage theme) and try paying more attention to the background to catch the detail in the beat and harmony, you should see what I mean. Do doo do do doo dooo doooo do...
I honestly felt like my heart exploded or stopped a moment seeing the budding of a nerd. So precious
26:50 The Foof in its early years.
When dan was opening the present at the end, I hope I wasn't the only one going: AWWW MY GOOOD
Babby Dan has a sister??
+Nison545 modern days Dan has sister too??? We need SisterCubed!!!
+ScienceDiscoverer I think his Sister is BananCubed, there is a video with her and Dad on DadCubed's Channel
Oh my god the clip at the end was the sweetest thing ever, Little Nerdcubed is such a cutie!
Dan as a child is the best thing ever.
Love that the fact that Dan was introduced into gaming by Sonic. Same here, but the game was Sonic Adventures DX: Directors Cut on my old GameCube.
I remember this game on SEEEEGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAA
+benjamin jones 2 completely different generations of people right there.
The Dan and his sister at Christmas is the best
#HelllllllllooooooooPrrrooooocrastinators
procrastinators for life
Holy crap, Ashens and his baby sister are so GOD DAMN CUTE! Man!
Yeah Dan's mum!
It's Sonic AND Knuckles you ill-informed gibbon. xD
This is honestly the cutest thing
I didn't think I'd find you here :)
could just imagine Present-day Dan stood in the corner in a long robe saying 'All as planed'
You can hear DadCubed at the end, and he still kind of sounds the same....
I couldn't help saying 'ahw' at least once during the ending.
Little Dan with his little glasses.
NerdCubed IRL ALL THE HOME VIDEO'S
I love your dad yelling "Crikey" when you got the present
Dan. We expect many collaborations with Sister cubed. DO IT
+Xecium Games Her name is Bananacubed
+JohnThomas5246.
Seeing tiny Dan at the end then going straight to THE NERDCUBED!
TinyCubed!
I think the music thing is because it is easier to remember chiptune music purely because it is very explicit, everything has to happen in a certain way and has exact notes. Whereas now they can do whatever they want making it more difficult to remember.
26:53 "What is it?"
"Sonic"
"Crackhead"
What...
FollTrace mishearing “crikey” as “crackhead”
It's been... shamefully... A very long time since I've watched Dan. And.. I'm loving it all over again. I believe the Reboot has already done so much good for the channel. 3 more years! 3 more years!
Oh..I kept thinking he said "Upsy, Downsy, Leftsy, Rightsy"..
he did say that
+bernardobiritiki not "Up, C, Down, C..etc" ?
+William Newton i heard upsy,dowsy,leftsy,rightsy let me look up the code
+Toah Ewok fuck off weaboo pice of shit your input is completly unwanted here
+William Newton i just looked up the code and you are righ it is up C down C etc
Priceless right at the end XD Steve "Crikey", hasn't changed a bit also Dans thick ass glasses
more baby dan plzz
Creep
+Axel Jager didn't you think baby Dan was cute?
You can debug the special stage, and with that, you can place the continue "coin" thing that was mentioned in the manual, or "guide". As a bonus, it works as it was intended to.
"Mr. Meeseeks isn't supposed to be alive for this long, things are getting weird."
DAN YOU WATCH RICK AND MORTY
Dan and his sister getting sonic and knuckles was so cute.
That ending was actually adorable!
And those glasses Dan!
I love younger siblings cause they are just as happy getting the sidekick toy as you are of getting the main character good on you BananaCubed
I think little Dan has made this the best monday of my life.
The cold open feels so much different than "Hello Procrastinators," it'll take some getting used to
I like how DadCubed sounds sounds so excited in the second video.
baby Dan's voice is exactly the same as it is now. he even did that little exciting inhale that he does now.
Mini Dan: Sonic and Knuckles!
Steve: Woow... That's good....

"What is wrong with you?" he says as he turns Sonic into a mechanical fish and flies away.
That ending video made me cry. Oh how far you've come...
I like it how Steve has the same voice from when Dan was five to now
I have to agree to a certain extent with the underpowered hardware. There's a newbie programming software called Scratch which is severely limited, but it's extremely fun to make proper games in it because you work around so much and can carry those skills into a proper language.
I used to play this game for so long that it damn near blew a fuse in my head. Until my vision turned red and i was playing it in my dreams. Good old days.
I feel like a missed part of the video with Dan just starting instead of saying hello procrastinators
From what I remember, the end credits thing stopped sonic from Jumping, which lead to his death.
Talking about overloading games has reminded me of when me and a bunch of friends used to use land mines in Halo 3 to overload the map. That was fun.
Aww those home videos. Dan was only Nerd² back then.
Fun fact, there WAS a press start thing in the rom itself, and people have managed to implement it back in.
The "sega" noise at the start took up way more than half of the space on the disk
That ending is absolutely fantastic. Perfect way to end a video.
I started with Captain Claw. Tough as nails but so beautiful, satisfying, memorable and fun, the frustration quickly wore off.
5:04 "MR. MEESEEKS ISN'T SUPPOSE TO BE ALIVE THIS LONG, THINGS ARE GETTING WEIIIRRD"
I want to see DadCubed's take on those last clips. It's strange hearing him exactly the same and Dan completely different. That's how aging works, I know, but still.
