ACTION BUTTON REVIEWS Tokimeki Memorial
by Action Button

A nearly 6-hour video where Tim Rogers describes his journey through completing all good endings (i.e. romancing every girl at least once) in the first Tokimeki Memorial game. Only a couple hours of the video actually detail his gameplay experience, the rest covering Tim Rogers' research on Japanese ADV history, Japanese idol culture and his personal experiences in Japan. It's hard to pick any one video by Tim Rogers, because I could listen to the man talk about anything forever, but this was my introduction to both Action Button and the TokiMemo series, which I am now a big fan of both.

ׂThe Complete, Unabridged Timeline of NieR
by EruptionFang

A 7-hour video going over the complete NieR timeline starting with Drakengard up until the end of NieR Automata. Couldn't you just read all about DrakenNieR at Accord's Library? Sure, but if this video is a nice and clean summary of the most "canon" timeline spanning several games, books and other forms of media. [UPDATE 1/22/25: The DrakenNier fansite Accord's Library was unfortunately taken down at the request of Square Enix at the end of 2024. So, no, you can no longer "read all about it" on that site. There are many wiki resources available that are still up, which I may provide organized links for someday.]

Disney's FastPass: A Complicated History
by Defunctland

1 hour and 43 minutes of Kevin Perjurer speaking about the history of Disney's theme park FastPass system. Much like Action Button, I enjoy any of Defunctland's videos. Kevin's video about the Disney Channel theme song was a strong contender to make this list as well, but I personally found the FastPass video more interesting.

Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled Developers React to 47 Minute Speedrun
by IGN

The devs for one of my favorite games, Crash Team Racing, commentate on Keronari's speedrun of the game. Despite being part of the team that created the remake, they still find themselves surprised by some shortcuts and exploits.

Cipher the Video
HQ reupload by Fel_Temp_Reparatio

An anime OAD that is kinda fun to watch without context. For the record, the shoujo manga it's adapted from (Cipher) is great!

Vinesauce Livestreams (Vinny)
Full Sauce Channel

I have been watching Vinesauce since Vinny's early days before he even uploaded his livestreams. There is no one video I can recommend from his main channel, but there are a few streams he's done that I enjoy a lot.

No it's not a cookie
Sesame Street clip slowed down by ThePurplePudding

Youtube wouldn't let me add this video to my favorites playlist because it's "for kids" so I'm adding it here. Now I will never lose it again. Very important.

NTBTS "Magical Book Turned Me Small" Clip
NTBTS clip uploaded by crumb

Honestly at the time of writing this I still haven't finished either seasons of this show but I love this clip and I'm tired of having to look up my discord chat history whenever I feel like watching it. Link provided may require a tumblr account.

FINAL FANTASY XIV Documentary
by Noclip

A 3-part documentary series (almost 2hr long) telling the story of FFXIV's infamous 1.0 release and how the developers rose from the ashes to create one of the best-selling mmos of all time.
