The triumphant return of Retro Ali! She posted a “reaction” video a week ago where she was just in a small window in the corner of the screen but I don’t include that. It’s been about six weeks without a video. What happened? She used to post a video once a week. Where’s the monthly pick ups video at least? People are clamouring for that shit. What Pokemon shit did she buy this month? Don’t leave us in suspense.
0:15 – “This is hashtag ad, hashtag sponsored product, whatever you want to call it.”
Oh. I see. I call it shilling to retards for pennies.
They sent her this game. And she’s getting paid a small amount to do this video. That’s the only reason she’s doing the video.
What about doing a video for Slim Fast? Do they still make Slim Fast? It seems so. How many people have died from that? I don’t think that a diet of shakes is terribly healthy.
I’m reading the comments because I don’t know if I even want to watch any more of this shit video. There’s this one:
– “I’m convinced that the sole purpose of your channel is to tempt me to buy things that I don’t need…”
Well, yes. Ali even admits to it in her response. She’s shaking the mentally retarded down for pennies.
0:30 – “I’m super excited about this because this is the first Limited Run game that I’ve ever owned.”
Yeah. Because you’re not interested in this shit. You’re only doing this because they’re paying you to do the video.
0:45 – “On the back it says, ‘Compatible with your retro handheld'”.
What does that mean? Gameboy? Game Gear? TurboExpress? Neo Geo Pocket? I don’t even know what this is.
Oh. There are different cartridges that you can buy for different systems: Switch, Game Boy Color, and Playstation 4.
It’s $45, by the way. The Game Boy Color version anyway. That’s the one that they sent to Retro Ali. Everything is sold out, though.
4:30 – She puts the game’s box into a “box protector”.
I refuse to believe that this will ever be worth anything. Who’s going to want a Shantae Limited Run Games game ten years from now? Who even wants one now? It’s a handful of nerds buying these as “collectibles”. They think that they’re going to be able to retire off of this shit.
I used to buy comic books and, to a lesser extent, baseball cards in “the 90s”. All of that shit is worth nothing today. I can’t believe that they even still make baseball cards and comic books. Who’s buying them? I suspect that it’s only adult nerds who think that this shit is going to be worth money one day. If you want to read the comic, you can just go online and read a bootleg PDF version. Don’t the companies sell the comics electronically now?
And baseball cards…no kids is buying these today. Is baseball still popular with kids? Surely, they aren’t buying the cards. Why would they? I’m not even 100% sure why people did it back in the day.
I mean, I guess it was cool to see a picture of the player and you could see their stats on the back of the card and shit like this. But all of this information is on the internet now and much, much more.
Same with Elvis collector plates. Or the entire Franklin Mint collection. Or Precious Moments figurines. Or any of this shit. It’s all worthless trash. Nobody wants it.
But somehow video games are going to be the big collectors item. Who the fuck wants physical video games? I haven’t bought a physical video game in like 25 years. The only people buying this shit are a handful of giant nerds who think that they’re going to be able to cash out on this shit one day. It’s not happening. No normal person wants a bunch of a video games cluttering up their home.
4:45 – Then she starts the playthrough. “Aw yeah! Let’s go.” And the title screen looks like shit. What is she excited about?
“Dude this is so wild.”
She really must be on something. IT’S THE TITLE SCREEN AND IT LOOKS LIKE SHIT. CALM THE FUCK DOWN.
Then it’s just various edited scenes of Ali “reacting” with her mouth agape. And…it’s just like the save screen and shit like this. She’s shown ZERO actual gameplay.
Straight garbage. Maybe the worst “playthrough” I’ve ever seen.
