Totally get where you're coming from. It can be frustrating to wade through the sea of clickbait, rumors, and downright falsehoods. TBH, these channels bank on generating hype. It's all about getting them views and subs, and what's more enticing than the promise of exclusive leaks or breaking news, right? They're just playing the YT game. Just like you, I miss the good old days of the Nintendo Official Magazine too. But hey, we gotta roll with the times. Nowadays, you can actually buy YouTube subscribers legit from online services if you're into that kinda thing. But remember, a strong, genuine community takes time and effort to build.

@EmilyRussell the YT game is quite the game. To understand it is to understand how the human brain ticks, close to impossible, yet still very possible.

I thought this was going to be for extremely baity and reactionary channels like ReviewtechUSA and DreamcastGuy, but most of the channels I've been seeing listed here I don't think are that bad, like I sub to most of these channels and I really like SpawnWave and Arlo, even RGT 85 I don't think is that bad

The rise of clickbait and fake news, especially in niche communities like the Nintendo fan base, can be really frustrating. It makes you miss the good ol' days when news came from reliable sources like Nintendo Official Magazine.

Don't worry, internet message boards started in 1978. I'm sure there was plenty of fake Nintendo news on them even back in the NES era. For correct news, feel free to check out Nintendo.com. 😝

Some of the game articles which occasionally come up on my phone's news feed are clearly AI/bot generated. They'll have a bunch of seemingly real facts and then they will say something completely bizarre in the middle which any actual human who knows much about games will know is false.

Let’s be honest, No AI can ever hope to match the masterpiece that is “Nintendo has forgotten about mario”

@EaglyBird dude isn't even completely AI yet, someone still writes the scripts for his awful videos (always have been).

@EaglyBird in his eyes, he doesn’t care. He wants to automate his content and make it without putting effort into it. Make a ton of money without even putting in the work. He sickens me.

@TheBigBlue That's like reading "Kellogg's has forgotten about cereal"
