How can they save their dying channel?
maybe rocko can do another begging stream and then take a trip to Japan afterwards
>>215410477de-age themselves by 20 years.when i was a teenager watching young adults make skits they were funny.now they are middle aged so they don't resonate with teens anymore and i don't enjoy their content anymore as an adult. they should have pivoted like corridor digital did and found another way to make vidya content.
>>215410493And buying that Apple VR headset thing
>>215410477If they went back to focusing on making "video game in real life" skits they be very popular today, There newer "Video game in real life" skits do well but they don't do it often.
>>215410477The pajeet killed their channel>least funny member>convinced all of them that podcasts are the future>forced them to do 5000 episodes of a podcast, each getting less views than the last>constantly brings up race and politicsThey have done skits that performed really well which shows that they still have something left in them, but then the pajeet drags them back to the podcast. His whole attitude just sucks.
Idk they should cry about Stellar Blade some more maybe that'll put some butts in seatsGood riddance
>>215410612he's puerto ricanhe's mexican not indian
>>215410612the podcast has been the only remotely consistently amusing thing they've done for literally like 15 yearsjust cause their sketch/video humor is so tired and outdated, they're better off the cuff even when they were being retarded getting triple vaxxed and hiding in their respective garages because one of them might be positive for covid
>>215410477I'd feel bad for them but they haven't changed at all in the past year, it really is too little too late
>>215410612Derrick is Peurto Rican but yes, he is you average woke liberal Californiacuck. Absolutely insufferable. I nearly unsubscribed after the last couple of podcasts when I've followed them for 15+ years. I feel bad for Rocco and Garrett because they clearly don't give a fuck about politic talk, but Derrick feels the need to steer the podcast (even though he literally left the podcast for almost a year). Still, way better than having Meg or Johnny on.
>>215410624What? That entire video was ironic I thought. Rocco is a hardcore coomer.
Loved their bungie release and cloud videos
>>215410669Turns out making your entire brand about how gamers suck doesn't resort to a big audience about your nerd discussion podcast. Go figure.
>>215410634yeah me too
>>215410655pajeet copeIt's the only consistent thing they've done because it's the only thing they do. Just fucking 4 hour boring podcasts every day for the past 15 years.At the start they were pretty funny. They stopped being funny about 14 years ago. Then they became unwatchable when it became the pajeet whines about white people and republicans show.
>>215410669>>215410493did rocco make a lot of money in crypto or somethingI know he was buddies with sam hyde and MDE, was he one of those guys who sam knew that sam told to go all in on bitcoin early on?does he just think contrary to every metric that mega64 is a golden goose that will never stop laying eggs?or is he just an addict/retard who lives by the nigger-rich ethos where he has it so he spends it?I keep hearing that they're in the worst state financially they have been, that they went from industry sketch guys to podcast t-shirt vendor guys to now needing to shake up their material and really focus on begging for money from their dwindling supporters. I followed most of that but missed the majority of the "begging from dwindling supporters" arc. What the fuck is the rationale behind them actually being legitimately kind of fucked and Rocco spending like a retard?>>215410690>JohnnyI hate that fucking faggot kike more than you could ever know
They self sabotage deliberately, it's clear by now. Whenever they find something that gives them a modicum of success they claim that continuing to do it would not be aligned with their brand. They're obviously planning their exit strategy, but only one has developed any skillset sufficiently valuable outside of their own company, so they'll most likely keep Mega 64 afloat however they can, hoping for some crazy period of economic prosperity that will somehow once again allow themselves to prop the business up with graphic t-shirt sales alone.
>>215410477Call up Sam Hyde, they shared a groupie together, and MDE needs all the help they can get after WP2 bombing and Sam crying for Peter Thiel to come to the rescue.
>>215410634It’s all the same shit
Something no one ever seems to mention is that their taste in vidya, and general knowledge of the industry is fucking abysmal. Literally the most milquetoast generic vidya opinions ever. I knew more about the industry when I was 10
>PLEASE BUY OUR SHITTY GRAPHIC T-SHIRTS FOR 14 YEAR OLDS, PLEASE! WE'RE BROKE!!!!!>proceeds to vbuy another ticket to japan and buys another 10 grand worth of action figureslol.
>>215410719Rocco is an addict. Literally claimed he won't stop buying toys because is what makes him happy. Family has money, though.
>>215410719What's wrong with Johnny?
>>215410763yeah they somehow all spend time 'working' despite putting out like 4 mid videos per fucking year.
>>215410723Garrett is a master electrician and a handyman by nature. He will be fine no matter what
man i really liked them and watched the podcast for a few years back in 2010s but they really should have found something else to do in life earlier on and just move on from this shit. ever since they moved on from the arcade studio its been downhill i feel.
>>215410702When he has to make a video explaining in stuttering detail why he thought it was funny with a bunch of generic twitch streamers behind him makes me believe it less.
>>215410477Cartwright thighs.
>>215410736Sam sent them shit on a Christmas cast one time and it was packages with shirts and tons glitter poured into it. Unironically hilarious
Crazy how they're less relevant than AVGN now
I caught Rocco and Johnny doing a stream at like 2am a day or two ago and they were doing a tier list where they rated male youtubers. They put Idbuzz in like C rank and kept Sam, Charls and Nick from MDE in unranked "hell tier" along with guys like Terry Davis and fucking Jontron. Johnny was like "should we rank Jontron or keep him in hell tier for being a massive racist?" "yeah let's not touch him..." They also put Pewdiepie in F tier (presumably because he said nigger that one time).
>>215410763I think Garrett is the only one who regularly plays vidya. They keep making videos on topics people stopped caring about weeks before it releases. Also they're still paying for a stupidly expensive studio they irregularly make videos in. Most of their stuff is filmed in eachother's houses or outside
>>215410842jontron hasnt made a good video in 6 years
>>215410842That's so gay. Both that they did that and that I understood this post.
>>215410847Shawn plays videogames but with the caveat that it's always with his kids/stepkids. Namely his kid Bucket who is apparently almost about to leave for college (holy fuck mannn). Apparently Shawn really likes Resident Evil now (but still hates horror movies).P.S. I wanna see what his daughters look like now I bet they're mad ripe and fuckable>>215410878and idubbz has made a good video... when?they weren't rating their fucking videos, man
their DBZ parody was on point though
>>215410809I have no clue what youre referring to
>>215410842Johnny is the fucking worst. Charisma vacuum kike faggot. >Jontron a racist for pointing out statistical facts>Pewdiepie who is conventionally attractive F tier because he hates jews and niggers (normal behavior) They're jealous
Remember when Shawn brought his wifes kids to a BLM rally and they were carrying pride flags?
>>215410702>>215410809Rocco and the group did a video about one of the Dead or Alive Extreme Beach Volleyball literally being dropped from English release by its publishers because of feminist/tranny backlash about it simply existing... over a decade ago. Back when they had that doughy Korea obsessed subhuman faggot Frank Howley as part of their hanger-ons group. They made a video mocking coomer gamers crying about being persecuted because MUH CENSORSHIP when the game was ... well, literally being fucking censored and prevented from English release by a vocal minority. If calling someone an incel gamergate chud was a thing and hadn't been too on the nose when they made the video they would have done so. It had that kind of tone.They didn't get mocked and retaliated against back then, like 10 years ago, because they weren't on the wrong side of the pendulum like they were when they pulled that shit recently with Stellar Blade or whatever. I'm frankly shocked anyone in their fanbase got mad. If you look at any of their live chats it's like 99% tankies/leftists/tranny types.p.s. They still sell that facetious mocking t-shirt "remember what they took from you" with a generic videogame bikini girl on it, like mocking the "gamers are persecuted" strawman.
>>215410895Well I certainly wont deny Shawn is clearly a devoted and loving father. He just isn't a gamer and doesn't have any real skills for Mega64
>>215411034I forgot about Frank. What happened to him? His girlfriend is surprisingly cute
>>215411096who knows, who fucking caresI hope he's fucking dead and if he's not I hope his mom has cancer or something
>cries and shits all over your studio
>>215411156Jesus, that's rough
>>215411193Don't feel bad for him. He said RE4 is a terrible game
>>215411156Really no surprise he's a chiropractor who insists on being called a doctor considering how he acts on the podcasts
>>215411156bro no fucking waywhat the fuckseriously?for real?that is who "doc" ryan married?jesus fucking chriiiiissstt LMAOI already thought he was a massive retard, faggot, fraud, fake doctor (chiropractor), etc.but this takes the cake (more likely, she does, the entire cake, runs off with it)
>>215411263Honestly, the boys bullying him is one of my favorite bits. They got him to cry on a Christmas Cast
>>215411193If that's recent, being that fat is a choice nowadays with Ozempic and Mounjaro. It has to be a fetish.
>>215410736Sammy's a little too busy trying to get a meeting with Palantir to discuss how he can help implement the police state.
>>215411096>What happened to him?He was working on the production side of MEGA64 videos for a while and actually ended up creating a pretty great series of videos for them called Flame War Theater but was never asked back after the 2nd season of FWT. During that time he would show up on the podcast and it was nice to hear his movie opinions but I think he may have gotten self-conscious after a couple of the commenters mentioned about how loud he was. He still shows up occasionally in personal channel videos, like if the group are at a convention or something, but he hasn't shown up for a podcast in years.Him and Bryan created a stream group called the Bigdogs while they were living together. They streamed all through the pandemic. Lots of Tony Hawk stuff, Scarface and other fun stuff. Eventually, Frank had to move back to Orange County after Bryan's girlfriend moved in. Frank is back living at home with his mom. His dad passed away last year. I tried checking out one of his streams recently and he appears to have fallen too far down the coomer well as most of the pop-ups on his stream are Japanese wrestling girls or anime girls. Too much for me, personally.>His girlfriend is surprisingly cuteAre you talking about Josie or Audrey? Audrey was cute and I couldn't believe Frank was able to pull her. She definitely fit the vibe he was attracted to. They're not together anymore.
I hate Mega64 in its current state but what I hate even more is this slow realization that millennials just fucking lie about everything. Lie about having no money, lie about a lack of free time, lie about being able to take jokes. They just lie and lie and everyone is supposed to be okay with that. An entire generation of liars who hide behind irony and parasocial behavior.
>>215411329Damn, his dad was very funny in anything he was in, from what I recall.
I still go through the archives and listen to the older podcasts. They used to be edgy and funny
>>215411351>Mega64>millennials Lmao they're in their 40s. They're gen x
>>215411460Rocco was born in 1984 he's millennial.The Mega64 boys are the oldest subset of millennials, not gen X at all.
>>215411479God damn am I getting old
>>215410961https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAwsETCm2j8
>>215411034That Stellar Blade thing was hilarious. The lack of self-awareness was DSP level.
>>215411034I probably stopped watching the podcast shortly after the "Waiting..." gag ran it's course entirely, for a frame of reference. These guys just absolutely suck as you get older, though I've always though Garrett seemed like a bro.
>>215411557So was the video making fun of coomers ironically or not
Does anyone have the begathon where they said that Mega64 was financially on its last legs and instead of doing something smart like getting rid of Johnny they begged their dying fanbase to save their skins. I think Rocco cried during it.
>yeah so, i went to this convention, and sold our graphic tees, and my hotel room had a weird shampoo in it!>so basically thats my story for this weeks podcast, please subscribe to the patreon
>>215411604Nah nigger, arcade set was peak era. Shitting on their sponsors, saying Kickapoo will give you cancer, that Loot Crate will come with guns and drugs, Sumo chairs absurd your farts, so many memorable moments. I legitmately think it was the best podcast ever at one point because it was so uncoventional
>>215411557>>215411573>>215411667baldur's gate 3 has naked women, gaming is saved
who?
>>215411760I just stopped watching around that time, I agree it was some of the best podcasting (and last) that I watched. I remember putting it on while playing games.
>>215411721He did cry and Vinesauce Vinny sent them a shit ton of money. Some other big youtuber as well, I forgot who.
>>215411813I remember who. Bernie from Rooster Teeth I believe, and they wouldn't disclose how much.
I wanna know how easy allies stay afloat
>it's a Meg podcast
>>215411135The fuck is going on here?
>>215412109She's getting into the holiday spirit
>>215412109christmas cast, where they historically notoriously eat a ton of disgusting challenge-tier foods and often end up throwing it up by the end either involuntarily or voluntarilyfrank's skinny girlfriend is suspiciously good at pukingI think they got a short ban on twitch one year when they went particularly far, since then they pivoted to more challenge oriented formal contest stuff than just being as disgusting as possible (gaaaaaaaaaaaay)
>>215411034well that is 100% of twitch chat. leftists. because otherwise you get banned. its been that way for 5+ years so i don't know why you're surprised. just do not use it ever.
>>215410493He got that money from his own personal cameo, it was listed as the goal for the cameo the entire time. He didn’t owe that money to the company.
>>215412174I love watching people puke but not in a sexual way. I don't get it and I've never gotten why but I do. The sounds in particular.
>>215410763Although it was funny as fuck when they would react to the game awards and then say “nobody cares” when games like Baldurs Gate 3 would win just to piss off the chat
>>215412252ok...
>>215410477Some of their events are pretty good but you'd never know they were happening unless you follow them on everything
>>215410477They should be doing at least one "X in 5 Minutes" videos per year.Completely missed out on the attack on titan craze.
>>215410847Garrett plays the most and does the most work for the company. Shawn has been playing resident evil with his son for 5 years. Rocco plays a game for 5 minutes and then says it’s too difficult and quits. Derrick has been playing Minecraft for 20 years
>>215411871It was Ray who was at rooster teeth then left for his own thing. Rays wife Tina to be exact is who the donation came from
>>215412287where do I watch this with sound
report eceleb threads as off topic
>>215412413Christmas Cast 2013 aka podcast #284no fucking idea it's not on youtube properly>>215412429cry more nigger retard
Sex with Mariel. Also unboxing ring is the best thing they've ever done
>>215411156damn that's a huge bitch
>>215410535This, its like pedos gaming with kids in fortnite, they have that vibe now.
>>215412502beating mariel to death with a rock and severing her head because she's literally an evil scheming manipulative cunt
>>215412608>>215412502
>>215412401What a nice guy. It was enough money to make Rocco cry. Glad Ray is doing well financially anyways, he was always the least insufferable faggot in that era of RT
Think all this crap makes him happy?
>>215410477Honestly, has any comedy group gotten funnier or stayed as funny after going woke? Literally all the podcast clips that made me a fan, that they had made animations of, have now been wiped.How do you go from making the jokes they did to being pissy about JK Rowling on social media?
>tells everyone to react to some shitty buzzfeed article about the top 10 craziest doormats>doesnt partake in the conversation himself>gets pissy passive aggressive when they change the subject to talk about something elsewhat's his fucking problem?
>>215413272his collection is probably worth more than what he spent on it to be fair i know literally nothing about toys
>company is going under and derrick focuses his creative energy on shit outside of the channel>doesnt move away from only making vidya shit even though they are so far removed from it at this point>only good videos they make are on roccos private channel>best video they've made in years, we still do rock band, is on his private channel cause derrick vetoed it being on the m64 channel cause "it didn't say anything">company is going under and they still treat it like a 9 to 5 instead of working 24/7>company is going under and they still pay ppl like meg a salary for designing tshirts>replaced christmascast with the boring shit they do now>got woke and stopped being funny>they have the skills, talent and equipment needed to make a micro budget feature and just don't even though it seems to be derricks dream>make 4 skits a year>just do public vidya skits ffsWe still do rockband videohttps://youtu.be/KLj7tG-HNoE
All of their shit is locked behindPatreon now.
>>215410477Why save it?
>>215411156You can quite literally chart Mega64's decline with how frequently this fag is mentioned.
>>215412174It wasn't because of the ban but they realised surstromming and rocco drinking his own piss was too far so they switch to the eating challenges instead
>>215414434it's the only life they knowand they're a staple of the early internet having them around is like a reminder that the old internet is still real.
>>215412413You have to go to their dedicated archive: https://www.mega64.org/#/Not sure if it's only a censored version or if it was replaced, but if it's still available online, it'll be in this archive.
>>215414236Jokes on them.The only thing I watch of theirs is Christmas-cast and Rocco figger updates
>>215413935pretty funny actually, should have been on the main channel
>>215413626>want to be actor>hook up with nerd in highschool>make videos with him on early internet>right time, right place, get successful>build early internet empire, but never break through to mainstream>always have chip on shoulder thinking being on the internet is less relevant than being on dying legacy media channels>always have chip on shoulder because the nerd is more popular than you>spend years trying to find other avenues, none carry outside of local community>finally start getting cast in indie movies and commercials>decide to distance himself from internet>immediately falls on his face (literally)>now has scar on forehead that in his mind will remove him from leading man roles>dream dead>crawl back to internet videos>upset at himself, upset at where he's at, but understands he has to keep the show going, because it's all he has left
>>215413655>his collection is probably worth more than what he spent They're all out of box, so at most he gets 75% of their value, and that's with jumping through ebay hoops. Figures in general are not a great investment. Even if they were kept in box, the boxes added and take up more space than they're worth.>t. collects Gunpla
>>215414814Gunpla are not the same as figs though, they lose 50% or more of their 'value' if you try and sell the built kit rather than a sealed box
>>215414868I also have a shit ton of anime figures, but I don't like talking about those. Gunpla is a hobby, having 4 dark magician girl statues is a problem
>>215414774QRD on the fall?
>>215414621thank you
>>215415005Hiking and fell down a hill face first into a rock
>>215414434because I don't like things changingI don't like people changingI like stasis, I like being in a bubble.
I don't think they really can save their channel. They'll never capture a new audience. Teens and 20 something's today want edge. They want you to say retarded and fag. If Mega64 circa 2010 was around, they'd be killing it. But having a 2 hour podcast where you try not to offend anyone while also complaining about the food prices in California of all fucking places isn't going to win anyone over.They unironically need to get edgy again. They can't though because it'd come off kind of sad to see a 40 year old guy trying to appeal to kids, not to mention it'd ostracize them from their mainstream youtube friends.They're really in a bind, with no real way out. They'll never get new fans because of how old and outright retarded Californian they are, but they can't survive with an aging audience. It's a mess with no clear answer.Really, all they can do is pump out videos, try to work a 'shorts' angle maybe as that's how you reach new people now. Also, they need to shut the fuck up on political issues and stop telling everyone they're from California. Being from California is not the selling feature it was in 2008.
>>215415086KWABt. Has hiked countless times while drinking alcohol and never done thus
>>215410493Both things were unrelated dude how many times does he have to explain thisHIS PERSONAL FINANCES AND THE COMPANY RESOURCES AREN'T THE FUCKING SAMEHe had that trip paid for and scheduled BEFORE he did crowdfunding campaign, in fact you should be grateful he went out of his way to create contact for YOU, basicaly at a loss out of his personal time.You people are so ungrateful it's insane, Rocko doesn't deserve to be mistreated like this.STOP NOW.
We all agree Garrett is a gem of a human right?
>>215415232When it comes to white guys with dreads he’s practically a saint
>>215410719no, they're just rich kidsI mean they fucking live in california.
>>215410634it's a memepeople were calling derrick that guy raj from that sitcom because he literally looked like him
>>215410477Dudes like these make me embarassed of being a millenial.
The best thing Mega64 has done in the last decade was getting Nirvana the Band back up and running.
>>215410736only garrett is friends with charlsthe other guys no longer support sam and the other goons
Live streamed group suicide.
>>215415536Eric already did that
>>215410477>dying channelthey've been dead since like 2009
>>215415432It's unbelievable how different he is compared to how he looks. He comes across as a great friend
>>215415526It's crazy that he got away with this. Even though Sam Hyde was kind of the only outwardly political person of core MDE when you really think about it, Charles and Nick are still lumped in with him. Props to Garrett for not giving a shit and having his friend on. I think that's why Garrett comes off as so much cooler than the rest of the gang. Dude just seems to live his life how he wants, straight down to keeping the black dreads in through the age of cultural appropriation.
>>215415604legit curious the origin of this image. Garrett is supposedly straight edge, but you can find some personal channel videos where he breaks.>TMZ watermarkkek
>>215415618that was when charls wasn't friends with sam.but there's that pic of sam doing a hitler salute while wearing a mega64 shirt. it's why they don't reference them anymore.
>>215415658it's a kid rock meme
>>215415686ah, thanks
>>215410702>>215411034it's because grummz was in one of their videos. it was literally personal for him because he thought they were his "friends"
>>215415186Hi Rocco.
>>215410847>Garrett is the only one who regularly plays vidyayou mean he plays mgsv
>>215410763their opinions are basically>playstation and nintendo good>xbox bad>disney good>pc games bad>apple good
>>215415604Kek is this supposed to be a big deal because he’s straight edge or something? If I remember right most of the Mega64 guys don’t drink. Anyway for me it’s whenever they got that current podcast set where they’re just sitting at some desk that looks like it’s from a lame sports talk show. Nothing was more comfy than the bean bag set up which was probably more than a decade ago at this point. I feel bad for them in some ways because they were both early to the party but also late to it if that makes sense?
>>215415736it's not rocco. it's johnny. he browses wrestling board
>>215415186>The money will go to the company WHEN IT'S READY>Thanks to the recent merger between Ceiling Fan Productions and our long term former friend Chris Rug's Rug Studios, we have been left WITHOUT FUNDING>What money we did have, went to the last season of the Unboxing Ring, and my OBLIGATION to attend PowerMorph-con so the MONEY IS SPENT>So before you ask WHEN'S THE NEXT VIDEO, just remember to think about all the HARD WORK and MONEY that goes into each video
>>215414814isnt most of his stuff obscure, low production type of things? he seems very good at finding weird shit to buy, that i assume other collectors who missed out on the original run would be intersted in.
>>215410842jontron shit on their video once. it's personal beef for them
>>215415807>Anyway for me it’s whenever they got that current podcast set where they’re just sitting at some deskYeah, it really does have a sterile vibe to it. Like the podcast is a job (which I guess it is) rather than friends hanging out on a HOT Sunday night.I did enjoy their week straight of podcasts though. Despite all the California food price talk, they started getting back into the early Mega64 banter by the end.
>>215411025when cuck meme became popular he was really mad when the guys were calling him a cuckhe got really pissed over that wordlol
>>215411096they pretty much replaced him with johnnythey're still friends but it's clear they replaced him because he was too autistic for them
>>215415877Most figures that aren't SH Figuarts tend to go out of print, but it really goes back to the box. Without the box, you're buying a used figure, which conjures up hotglue images. The box is everything in reselling, otherwise you're lucky to get your money back, much less make a profit.There are outliers for sure, like I have a Kotobukiya Dark Magician in original anime colors that goes for like $600 in box, but those figures tend to be few and far between. For every one of those kinds of figures he has, he has 10 Figuarts Goku that get reprinted every year and just lose value.
>>215411156why are they friends with this guylike fucking seriously. he's not funny. he's not interesting.
Why is he never in any of the personal channel videos?
>>215410477They should keep bringing up Trump and politics. It's always a hit lmao
>>215416048Basically >>215414774In a weird way, I kind of feel bad for him. He obviously tried to break out, but it just didn't land. Then he talks about he got dogpiled on for some comment he posted on a new story and you kind of lose the sympathy.
>>215413626derrick would unironically love to work in buzzfeedcorporation lol
>>215416048personal channel videos = rocco food shit which obviously derrick doesn't give a fuck about
>>215416063lol, the recent episode where they mentioned Kirk's assasination and it was basically>so this is in the news>it's not good>he was a jerk though>10 minutes of repeating the above>anyway, you see the price of gas? It's $8 a gallon here! How are we gonna survive and live in California at the same time?
>>215416125>rocco food shit which obviously derrick doesn't give a fuck about>still outperforms most main channel videos while also keeping you relevant and in the eye of your fansDerrick would be far more successful if he took a page out of Rocco's book and just stopped caring so much.
>>215415658Garrett is easily the edgiest of the boys. He drops micro dose redpills all the time. >that podcast after JewWario died>"I heard Wario's run the entertainment industry" - Garrett "The Racist" Hunter 34
>>215416165derrick went with rocco to get food and they literally made fun of him for saying "Chim Cheerio"derrick is such a fucking retard
>>215416135Yeah, they always bring up wrestling but ignored the global rampage Jackson news where his son almost beat a man to death on Livestream. They will avoid ANYTHING that would turn away their lefty pay pigs. They're pretty much living off of them now, because it's currently the worst time to make money being a hyper lefty and I still don't think they realize that.
>>215415662It's wild Sam would even like Mega64. Guess it's because they're self made like him
>>215410477theyre doing good, but could do :- new podcast set more cozy i.e. campire/arcade vibe, need to be able to SLOUCH- more movie club episodes, review every new movie, release for free- more skits and goofs- keep patreon for behind the scenes and special event videos (metallica concert, full day at disney)i just want to hear them (ALL of them, rocco derrick garrett johnny meg kevin) shoot the shit and ramble about stories and review media, not a big fan of the podcast games per saythey can still be the funniest fucks, these are the two funniest videos theyve ever donehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLyiC1-3Rqshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycBF_nMpRug
>>215416165I swear, if Rocco genuinely tried he could be super succesful on YouTube. That video of theirs made during Covid where they each made a segment showed how he outclasses Shawn and Derrick.https://youtu.be/Qv1hLip3NNcDoes anyone have a link to the personal channel video he made during that time where he parodied YouTubers? Shit like that could've been huge if he actually tried to push it more.It is funny how Derrick seems to want to go viral and Rocco does it like once a week on social media without even trying.
>>215415803Rocco's obsession with fucking Apple products is disgusting. He loves his overpriced slop
>>215416275https://youtu.be/OS7KTqSkzgg>>215416259I love that Ortega vid.
>>215416225Yeah, they're trying for this weird middle ground where they don't piss anyone off, but it just ends up pissing everyone off.Derrick on the last podcast should've learned this first hand.>comment on news story where leftist threw paint on a historical Columbus painting>Derrick comments on post acknowledging that it was wrong to deface a historical painting>but he still think he needs to show how 'on the right side of history' he is, so throws in a few jabs at Columbus>Pro Columbus dogpile him because he jabbed at Columbus>Anti Columbus still dogpile on him for saying it was wrong to deface the paintingTrying to please both sides never work, so they need to just stop it all together. It's that exact 'trying to not piss anyone off' that winds up pissing everyone off.
>Rocco has never been drunk in his entire life Insane levels of manchild
>>215416361walking through the seattle streets improving, great camera work from johnny, getting a random PAX official to rush them inside meanwhile theyre lying the whole time almost getting banned from the con lmao
>>215416379Alcohol tastes like poison and IS poison.I cant blame him.I only drink beers to get mega buzzed and thats it
>>215410477Are they still manchildren going to Disney every year?
>>215416275Ngl, I love my phone, watch, and iPad, but that fucking $3000 VR headset that came and went with all the impact of a hamster fart was an exercise in pure retardation. It seemingly only existed as a flex, just so people should show how much money they could casually blow on stupid shit.

>>215416372Also derrick used to be the most fucked up one so it's hilarious. He called Garret a faggot for the crispy station situation, one of the biggest clips on cleanfreak's channel was derrick saying how you could theoretically fuck a baby if you had sexy with a pregnant woman giving birth. I wish I still had that clip, it was very popular among mega 64 clips back in the day.
>>215416440>Find 'em and Fuck 'emIt was a different time
>>215416241It's not wild. Anyone their age (me), liked CKY and jackass, and if you were on the internet in the 2000s as a CKY fan you would eventually find mega 64. The early internet was a hybrid of nerds and weirdos, so even though they're no longer famous, mega64 used to be a household internet name.
Vidya game channels have all died out on Youtube after most people just went to Twitch for Letsplays. Rooster Teeth tried to stay afloat by branching to other things but it was just a corpse at that point
>>215416731I don't get why they still only makes vidya stuff. The success of DBZ in 5 min should have tipped them off to branch out.
>>215416434I contributed to this. Fucking great personal channel video.
Fuck lads, when is the last time we had a Mega64 thread? Based of the jannies to let this one stay up. I remember when we used to have Christmas Cast threads during the livestream every year. Supremely comfy stuff.
>>215416275Rocco is basically the CONSOOMER meme personified, no?
>>215415729>grummz was in one of their videosFaggotry loves company I guess.
>>215416982Yes without question. Have you heard him talk about Nintendo? He slops it right up. He was talking about getting that gay flower from Super Mario Bros Wonder
>>215410842>I caught Rocco and Johnny doing a stream at like 2am a day or two ago and they were doing a tier list where they rated male youtubers.That is really fucking sad. Imagine being a 40 year old man openly gossiping about other men for money.
>>215415889When?
>>215416850>Christmas Cast threadsYeah, good times. Really hope we can get another one this year.
>>215410842That's funny, idubbz has said more racist and homophobic things than JonTron of PewDiePie ever said, yet he goes in C tier?
>>215417281Ya see, idubbz cried and said he regrets it, so it's ok to talk about him.
>>215410719>>215410477Rocco is deep in BTC, he was a bit selfish with it and didn't tell anyone about it, derrick brought it up once in a passive-aggressive way essentially saying, "Well someone should've told me about BTC" and looked directly at rocco. Rocco's begging stream hits different when you realize he did it for his crew and not for himself, he's a good actor, he doesn't even need the money. Rocco and Sam kind of have the same personality, which is ironic since Sam is also absurdly loaded on BTC. Sam was also a HUGE fan of mega64 even wearing their shirt in an infamous pic. Sam called into garrets stream when Charls was there and dogged on them a little. Sam is wrapping back around to gaming again and I wouldn't be surprised if Sam is down to collab with Mega64 again. Mega64 needs to throw away their fears of not being PC and just start making weird videos again. They could blow up again, but they need to shift their entire mentality when it comes to making videos. People need to care about what Mega64 has to say and not what they make, that's something that they don't seem to understand. No long autistic rants on their shitty podcasts, just make short-form videos about the state of the video game industry, start being more edgy, make some solid shorts, 'mini-social experiments'. They could turn it around.
>>215418033>Rocco is deep in BTCAside from being funny, it'd be cool to see evidence of that.But yeah, I agree. If Mega64 hooked up with MDE, it would be a net gain for Mega64. Sure, they'd lose the connections to main stream e-celebs like Jacksfilms and RoosterTeeth people, but who cares? They need an injection of edge or they'll just keep slowly dwindling away as more and more paypigs age out of supporting youtube creators.
>>215410477Rocco Botte is just a slightly more successful Sam Hyde. I don't need to elaborate on that.
>>215418116Indeed, iykyk.
>>215418090The raw emotion from Rocco probably comes from his ego being hit a bit because if the begging stream didn't work, then Mega64 would shut down. Rocco cares about what he built, but he absolutely doesn't need the money. There's some evidence of Rocco injecting some money into Shawn's side due to him having a family and him feeling bad for how things turned out. Rocco is a lot smarter than people think, he's crypto rich, but has been very hush about it. I think it's more out of fear of being kidnapped by one of his psycho fans.
>>215410477Pivot to the conservative grifter model and change their name to MAGA64
They should do more streams like The Room.That was the most relevant they've been in years.
Knew it. Better call your boss to enable upload filters for new IPs across the board :^)
>>215410634Heh. My Peurto Rican friend used to say people would mistake him for Indian or Mexican all the time.
>>215418168Rocco shut down a few years ago when he got doxxed for the Stellar Blade video. It put genuine fear into him. Pretty sure his personal twatter is still private because of that
>>215418351What did he mean by this?
>>215412174>>215412287this legit looks like fetish site content I guess it kinda is
>>215418492it was a different time.a time when we'd all look forward to seeing an italian consoomer eat a honey baked ham, puke on said ham, then take another bite.a more civilized era of the internet.
>>215413272I jelly.I actually talked with him a bit at a con about how he ran into Refn at a figure store in Japan.
>>215416413>yearyou mean every month?
Surprised this is still up and everyone banned as there seems to be some jannie with a boner for giving out bannies for psoting in off topic threads. I got hit twice in the last week alone. He is no doubt extra smelly and for sure a crust buster.
