i used to think when i was a kid i was built different for unironically enjoying waggling the wiimote because it "got my energy out" until i got a mid-20s ADHD diagnosis and realized i'm just unhinged.

You half the resolution by placing blocking bars vertically a bit over the screen, and then rip the displayed image into these same bars, every other only visible to the left eye rendering from a virtual camera a bit to the left, and the same thing with a virtual camera a bit more to the right for the rest of the bars of the screen not rendered for the left eye already.

I would say a plug and play is any game console with most or all games being built in, so in my book, my homebrewed wii with all my totally legal wii and GameCube games backed up on an external harddrive is the ultimate plug and play.
Gaming fads huh? Woulda thought that short but sweet Gamer Products episode woulda been included since that also has fad fodder. Like G-Fuel, where the G stands for Gaming fad.
Oh yes.., the virtual boy! I remember long ago.., at ye ol blockbuster one weekend. I went to rent a n64 because it just came out and they still had a virtual boy on display and getting to play that system changed my life forever!!! Since that day, the last vision I’ve ever had is a red tennis ball getting smacked towards me in “3D”! I’ve always wondered how life like and realistic the n64 ended up being!
The wiiU was a great entry into streaming to a handheld. If you were playing a non extra screen intensive game it was no problem to give up the TV and play on the handheld screen
Honestly with all the plug and play consoles I would get from my parents to keep me busy, I wonder why they never pulled the trigger on an actual console instead
Fans: Give us a 3D Zelda, and a 3D Metroid! Nintendo: Ok fine. *releases 3DS* Fans: That's not what we wanted. Nintendo: We're sorry. We'll try 3D again in 10 years.
It's canonically ambiguous, with numerous jokes about whether it's "hey y'all" or "hey all", but in the Madden '08 Christmas Special Terry says "hey scott, all here" in response to Scott saying "hey all, Scott here".
Skylanders released for PC? I can almost guarantee no one paid to unlock characters. There are way too many "trainers" that allow you to cheat on any PC game like the GameShark for N64 and original PlayStation. I remember spending literal hours adding cheat codes to my GameShark. I typically used it to screw around once I had beat a title, but I ended up using it a bunch on titles that were either too difficult or to explore the closest things we had to an "open world" game.
Since it's been years and all these gimmicks have faded away for good, I only have one question: Are you still willing to part with that Capt. Reynolds statuette? I'm asking for a friend
Eh. It was kind of. That's not a bad thing. It was the only official wireless controller of the era. Call it a hook, a unique selling point, or a gimmick, it was designed to impress and get people's attention. It didn't really work but it's one of the finest controllers ever made.
Couldn't disagree more on the wiiu, the screen on the controller was often not necessary to play the games and in Monster hunter tri ultimate in particular you had your inventory, or your map on that screen, Microphone and volume and it worked well. I've never played my switch in non docked mode, because the controllers are awful. The Only game i found the wiiu controller awful for was starfox, which nintendo has yet to figure out how to give us another starfox 64, so i dont put that on the controller.
Remember when xbox fanboys tried telling us that the 360 sales were comparable to PS3 sales? They called it a "console war" because they either weren't intelligent enough to look up worldwide sales numbers, or they were so desperate for the xbox to seem as if it was competition, rather than a company that thinks it can buy success instead of building it like Sony and Nintendo did. I enjoyed the 360 Elite as much as anybody. However, I didn't deny reality, or avoid the simplest of google searches in oder to tell lies about its sale numbers. I still see xbox the same way I saw them when they announced the OG xbox. They try to buy and force their way into the gaming community to make money, instead of having a genuine love and interest for it that they could relate to the community with in order to produce great products.
Ah, Disney Infinity, if they'd copied what Skylanders had done, it would have been a MASSIVE hit. Something that would have been nearly unstoppable. Instead, it was boring, uncreative garbage. Kinda sad.
I disagree about everything 3D related, I love 3D so much, it adds a whole extra dimension to 2D. I primarily still play on my 3DS because I love the 3D effect so much My parents have a 3D TV and I found out that most programmes have 3D support (I doubt things are filmed in 3D and instead it’s just some post processing to add in depth, but it’s not in the TV because there are some shows without 3D), even cartoons like Bob’s Burgers is in 3D. I feel like it always enhances what I’m playing or watching for it to be in 3D The only times I ever turn off the 3D on my 3DS is for a second before I turn it back on and make what I’m looking at pop. Cumulatively my 3D has been off for no more than 5 minutes across hundreds of hours of playtime. I cannot imagine choosing to play with it turned off, I bought some games that didn’t have 3D and I just didn’t bother to play them because I had other games I could play with 3D
Yo Woz! Why haven,t you covered REAL VR gamining yet? Because its CRAP! I used to love the ps4 vr game BATTLE ZONE...then i got a ps5, and vr, and a portal, and guess what...I CANT PLAY ANY OF THE VR GAMES I HAD ON PSVR4 ON PSVR5!
Scott's always got that look that says "Please hear me out, and don't break my knees"

Boy, this one really jumps around, huh?
Bless you
When the world needed him the most, he returned to us all
They've plagued video games for as long as they've existed and for at least the next two hours
A small snippet indeed
Yeah 2 hours is short X3
35:15 ""it's a whole ass nother realm to consider"
the best description ever of the Z axis
3DS to this day is still trippy as hell like how the fuck does it work so well?!

Scott's budget for gaming nonsense much be astronomical.
NEW SCOTT COMPILATION!!!!! WOOOOOO
YEAH BABY!!!!!!!!
THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!
The waste chasers part was HILARIOUS 😂😂😂😂❤
The best sort of fad
So close!
43:53 Scott checking out the Alita manga, my man.
fun fact: Disney infinity 3.0 gold is on steam. you can play the full game it without the figures.

Gaming fads huh?

the g in g fuel stands for guess what the g stands for
Babe wake up .. Scott dropped a snippet
10:28 Scott hit me into an ad
Sameeeee
My favourite part 🤣
Wait where's the Wii U episodes
Pretty sure a fad implies popularity
@@Ren_kurogane_CK OOF
Wouldn't be a snippet anymore
Oh yes.., the virtual boy! I remember long ago.., at ye ol blockbuster one weekend.

Since that day, the last vision I’ve ever had is a red tennis ball getting smacked towards me in “3D”! I’ve always wondered how life like and realistic the n64 ended up being!
Man I used to be in love with Scott videos still watch them to fall asleep sometimes
I'm surprised the microconsoles episode wasn't included. Those were the definition of a fad!
this is a bunch of banger episodes imo. i always thought "when gimmicks go too far" (at 0:00) was underrated
the spongebob plug and play is how i spent HOURS burning the spongebob screen into my parents tv
Gaming fads! Sounds good to me!
The wiiU was a great entry into streaming to a handheld. If you were playing a non extra screen intensive game it was no problem to give up the TV and play on the handheld screen
this channel has gone from scotts snippets to scotts compilations
This actually reminded me that I haven’t seen one of those Lootboxes at stores an a few years
i loved my 3d tv. i never could understand why my family didnt enjoy it as much as i did.
Remember: it's not a phase, it's a lifestyle
Scott's chair at 0:05 is kind of serving saddam hussein hiding spot
Holy sh*t, who else up waggling their wand right now
A 2hr video of Scott? My time is now!
find it really funny how all the things in the thumbnail are some sort of fad, the lootbox, toys to life, the kinect, and then theres just the 3ds
Never understood the appeal of blind boxes and lootcrates. If I am going to spend money, I want to KNOW what I am getting.
It doesn't even make sense that only Wild Style is a Master Builder, because Batman is one too.
It's because that's DC Batman, not Lego Movie Batman. Lego Movie Batman only shows up in the Lego Batman Movie world and levels.
@@batmanbud2 Oh that's confusing.
15:07 The Famicom 3D system actually looks badass.
HEY YALL SCOTT HERE!
NO NO. SCOTTS HERE. NOT THERE
HEY YALL SCOTT HERE. RIGHT HERE
It's the alien Hey All, Scott There
Stfu you imposter. We have time to waste, but its on Scott's video, not you.
*all
You woke up the nerds
Scott 2 hrs isn't a snippet. It's an essay
I could’ve sworn this existed already
Every Scott the Woz video is his way of justifying all the random video game shit he has
You looked cute in that oversize shirt 😭
“Gaming fads - Scott the woz. . .”
if this is a snippet i dont WANNA know how long a bit is
Did you give up on us... I miss 5 years ago Scott.
Should i be saying goodnight to everyone 😂 zzzz time.
Scott is scott
Honestly with all the plug and play consoles I would get from my parents to keep me busy, I wonder why they never pulled the trigger on an actual console instead
I’m surprised they haven’t came out with plug in plays that use HDMI ports. Maybe they have, but I haven’t seen any besides the atgames stuff.
The WiiU crawled. So that the Switch could run
im surprised this isnt a main channel video
Fans: Give us a 3D Zelda, and a 3D Metroid!
Nintendo: Ok fine. *releases 3DS*
Fans: That's not what we wanted.
Nintendo: We're sorry. We'll try 3D again in 10 years.
Is it "Hey all" or "Hey y'all"
🤔 genuinly curious
It’s all.
@@Real_Faygo thanku
It's canonically ambiguous, with numerous jokes about whether it's "hey y'all" or "hey all", but in the Madden '08 Christmas Special Terry says "hey scott, all here" in response to Scott saying "hey all, Scott here".
@@Kingbobman69 a clue to the true nature of the catchphrase, intriguing! 👀
gimmick doesn’t even sound like a word anymore
10:07 Fuck Barnd?
36:28 boy do I have some news for you
stained was that blood.
16:48 TH-cam ad did you know you can get your prep for free?
2hrs, yes
ok but like, what is that spaceship for "when gimmicks go too far"

Hey!
Retro game treasure is thr best
Since it's been years and all these gimmicks have faded away for good, I only have one question:
Are you still willing to part with that Capt. Reynolds statuette? I'm asking for a friend
The wave bird wasn't a gimmick
Eh. It was kind of. That's not a bad thing. It was the only official wireless controller of the era. Call it a hook, a unique selling point, or a gimmick, it was designed to impress and get people's attention. It didn't really work but it's one of the finest controllers ever made.
A lot of bot comments....
7 years in????
In before Switch 2 is some kind of 3D or vr enabled system
Is Loot Box still a thing? It was everywhere at one point...
Hey ya’ll!!
Oh god anaglyph 3d is the worst for ppl who get motion sick.
Anyone else accidentally misread Fads as Faps?
these snippets are too short
this was fun thanks I hope that is star Wars 3 is next
Looks like he hasn't made a video on the Wii
Gaming was a mistake
These compilations span too much time
I reflashed many of those NES and SNES mini consoles with over a thousand games and re-sold them for like $300 a piece.
What is the game between 0:53 and 0:59?
1:00:05 the amount of cope on display is immeasurable.

Pooh’d my pants to this
Gimmicks are quite distinct from innovations. An innovation is NOT a gimmick, and a gimmick NEVER becomes an innovation.
41:42 Almonds are overrated, personally.
