Been watching since a UK Nintendo magazine featured the Luigis Mansion and MGS skits on a free DVD, Mega64 has been a staple in my life for a long time
Same, I was in middle school when I got a video game magazine that had a DVD with the California Games skit. I had that burned into the back of my brain until I found them again in the early 2010s.
Wait isn’t this the same Mega 64 that has the same Rocco Botte who in 2016 paid to fly out a then 19-year-old fan he preyed on that made a statement she was subjected to incredible emotional abuse and manipulation in an effort to coerce sex? That Rocco Botte? The one in this video? With the gross perv face and neckbeard? THAT Rocco Botte? The one who buys $100+ toys using money made from fans and does hour long videos to said devoted teenage following further funding sexual escapades with e-girls? THAT Rocco Botte? That being said, no one HAD to purchase merch before 2016 but because fans did they funded a sex pests trauma inflicting spiral.
I love that chat created skit ultimately always ends up the same: the main character would just ended up freaking out to the point of dying. I immediately reminded about Derrick's remark earlier: This is what happened if a commitee try to make something. 😂
I watched most of this yesterday, but the funniest bit to me was when Garrett and Bryan are doing the PPS and need to fill in a bit more time, Bryan goes “how do you like it so far?” And that fucking KILLED me
Man, whoever created that "ugly hollywood actor" list has their beauty standard very skewed. How the hell edward james olmos is ugly? Dude looks so badass in miami vice and even still looks badass when he's older in battlestar galactica.
"Gollum Muckbang is one of our worst performing videos" ... Sorry Derrick, it actually did better than the majority of skits you guys have written since.
It was surprisingly relevant what with the gollem game drama and events. The subtle parallels and the use of realistic panic attack... All of it. Priceless.
I am a rare breed- I SORT OF like Ryan Reynolds. I watched him a lot in 2 Guys A Girl and a Pizza Place before he did movies, but I think in all his movies and interviews are cringe. I do think that video game movie was pretty cool though. And he does seem like a genuinely "nice guy", like he would be a good friend, he just seems a bit unbearable because he tries a little too hard on camera maybe? IDK
im 50 minutes in and already haven't laughed this hard in a while. I stopped watching the podcast for quite a while due to just watching other things but I gotta get back on it lol
man, i feel like derek seriously does not want to be there anymore, podcast wise. maybe its because hes been away for so long now but I feel like his energy isnt there anymore. he always has the look that hes just not interested in anything being talked and practically looks like hes just in pain just being up there. and jokes aside, even him as mister midnight, he still has that same negative vibe compared to the rest of the group. really hope im just thinking too much into this since he hasnt been on the podcast for a while.
@@mega64 Hi Derrick, we all know Rocco would love the return of the couch so I know he didn't write such slander. Shawn is too nice to say he hates couches.
Fans getting mad some of the boys don’t like past designs of shirts is hilarious. Wait until they find out musicians barely like their number one hit songs!
am i the only internet soldier that likes the deadpool movies? I've never gotten the opinion of other Mega64 fans but I feel like I am. I don't love Ryan Reynolds but those movies are funny to me.
This segment of the show, where they ranked their own shirts, was a terrible idea from the start. The argument that "it's their merch, so they can do and say what they want" doesn't hold up here. Their business thrives on the support of their fanbase, who buy the merch not just for the sake of having a shirt but to support Mega64. Seeing most of their designs ranked lower than a B gives the impression that they never liked those designs to begin with. It feels like they were pushing merch without genuinely liking it, which begs the question: why promote those shirts in the first place? Fans trust Mega64 because they're a small business known for providing quality content and products. But seeing those low rankings is hurtful. It feels like a big slap in the face to the fans who supported them. This makes it hard to trust them when they promote a shirt on their podcast or in their newsletters. While it's fine to critique their videos and skits, am I the only one who thinks that ranking their own merch is a recipe for disaster? Fans bought those shirts at a specific time in their lives to support their favorite channel, only to find out that the creators didn't even like them. It feels like a dismissive "thanks for your money, loser" message to their loyal supporters.
I can tell you’re not a creative. Often you’ll create and design stuff that you think is hot shit, then 6 months later think absolutely sucks because you feel like you’ve done so much better since. It’s why musicians end up not wanting to play their older stuff live, because over their creative career their interests and output have changed, and they end up feeling it’s not a true representation of their current creative output
@@DigitalBroomstick That argument doesn't hold water. Just because creatives often reassess their work doesn't mean it's wise to publicly trash the products your fans bought to support you. My original point stands: ranking their own merch so poorly undermines the trust and goodwill of their supporters, who bought those shirts out of loyalty and a desire to help Mega64, not to hear later that the creators themselves don't like them. It’s a slap in the face to the fans, regardless of the typical creative process. Plus they included external artists designs for 64 hours specials where they had zero creative involvement.
@@bidou7789 Not true in my opinion. It's a silly skit designed to just get thoughts on their designs in retrospect. As the other person mentioned it is just a creator perspective for them, it does not mean they released the shirts in the past just to push out shirts. They probably liked them at the time, and for a lot of them you hear them say "it was a great idea just not executed well." As someone who makes music for other people to use in commercial video games I usually look at the work I have done in the past and go "oh that could have been much better it's not that great." It does not mean I just pushed it on a developer to get their money.
After reading the comments here, people totally exagerated how “bad” the T-shirt ranking was. It was a totally serviceable tier ranking and I really didn’t get that much animosity from it. They usually explained why they had any issues with things and Derrick was just trying to keep thinngs moving. Felt like the hate was totally overblown. The Casa Bonita segment and the chat makes a video segment were both awesome, fun Mega64 stuff.
damn i started watching these guys in the second grade and now im in fourth grade crazy how time flies
Noone cares.
I do
@@loppy6481 no one*
the stream isnt that long ok
time is illusion
Damn, I've been watching the boys for almost 20 years now, I feel like I grew up with these guys. Their chemistry is unmatched.
Same
Yup
I’m so glad you guys loved the blankets!!! Enjoy!! 🖤
they look sick!
classic mega64day. haven't watched it yet
The new podcast set looks incredible.
rocco chopping it up with a child in the casa bonita gift shop was so mf funny
“Yeah I’m a UA-camr”

same, RIT NOM
@@RattAndMouse Was it NOM? I thought it was CUBE
@danculbert6349 I'm fairly sure I only bought NOM back in the day, but they could have been in both!
Watching them film a skit live is pretty cool actually. It's interesting to see the raw behind the scenes footage
5:09:10
I've never seen Rocco make that face from laughing so hard holy fucking shitttttttttt I almost died
This Mr. Midnight guy should be a regular
#NewDerrick
Nah, let him disappear
@@bocrux he certainly seems to want to
who could it be?
I have not seen Rocco laugh that fucking hard in a long time 5:09:00
I couldn't breathe during Derrick's OD. Can't wait to see the edited version.
He couldn’t breathe either tbh

Podcast section one of the funniest episodes in a while, glad to have the fresh blood to change things up
so close to being 6 hours 40 min
Boys sneaking in the chiropractor joke during the live skit killed me lol
"Yea, Imogen Heap he jumps from the car and goes 'Mmm what you sayyyyy'". Underrated joke from Rocco.
Honestly, if you guys did a monthly live skit creation stream I think that in itself would be a great new video series.
13:40 "Mr. Midnight is too negative... I want Mr. Sunlight"
Shawn made me laugh so hard 🤣
Shawn’s transformation into an Oompa Loompa was absolutely magical
The trip to Cassa Bonita was my favorite thing you guys have done for years
My new Mega64 comfort watch
I love that chat created skit ultimately always ends up the same: the main character would just ended up freaking out to the point of dying.

You guys should do more themed bars and restaurants episodes. Max’s southseas Hideaway in Grand Rapids MI would be fun to see y’all get yer drink on
I watched most of this yesterday, but the funniest bit to me was when Garrett and Bryan are doing the PPS and need to fill in a bit more time, Bryan goes “how do you like it so far?” And that fucking KILLED me
Found it 4:00:40
That's from their 2013 Behind the Scenes video if you weren't aware. They've quoted it a few times.
@@ulaan648they also quote it in the Sakred Diamondz Kickstarter video, classic line
Are you guys gonna do a special event in 2064? A postmortem event perhaps?
You guys sat in the exact same spot I sat in at Casa Bonita! Happy Mega64 Day, boyz!!
5:44:04 Kevin’s Wonka impression is underrated.
Great stream, guys! You gotta do the making a sketch live again next year. Had a great time!
Meg being resident girl having to write on the whiteboard bc neatest handwriting FOR SURE
Happy Mega64 Day. This year's stream was a banger.
Watching this while I lay low. Cornpop is looking for me.
Was that supposed to be manbearpig?
Not gonna get "ET glew" our of my head for a week
I just want to see the final edit now hahah. Excellent work guys.

Damn that's crazy I had to go back and look lmfao
They should do more chat written skits
Mega64 predicting the future in mysterious ways yet again
@@ShinraXSoldier Nah, we did that.
It is just me or does Mr. Midnight sound just like Derrick. Maybe they're related.
I think Mister Midnight is really Derrick??
New set rocks

Long live mega64
Orange juice & Lemonade. Insane but it just might work.
Tshirt tier list just made me feel bad for buying merch lol
For real. I only bought three or four shirts over the years, but I'm definitely not buying any more.
Seriously, it's really funny how hard they shit on their own merch lmfao
Best one in years
Derrick looks like he could punch a hole in a steel beam.
If you thought the food was fine this time, you would have considered it inedible many years ago
Damn. They were so close to rating my two favorite shirts I own.
Kinda mean to make fun of the artists and fans that design shirts for yall
Mr. Midnight pretty cool.
Sit on it and rotate is the funniest shit
im 50 minutes in and already haven't laughed this hard in a while. I stopped watching the podcast for quite a while due to just watching other things but I gotta get back on it lol
I had no idea the Icon shirt design was so divisive, it's one of my all-time favorites!
the overdose becoming a realistic depiction of a panic attack lmao

He's always like that, and the balaclava and the sunglasses make it worse, feels like a badly discounted Kanye West.
He really had somewhere to be most of this stream huh
I can't wait for the 12th now. Or the 19th, I'm not quite sure
1:51:35 Lester the Unlikely
49:27 - this story had me dying lmfao
A burner is slang for illegal gun.
Damn... 6 hours crazy
I LOVED the one hour podcast! Perfect amount of time to catch up with the Mega64 crew.
Next time use the Kinect to order Pizza Hut live on the podcast don’t know if you can still do that in 24’
Thats not how we order pizza here in the future
Oof, that light background hurts my eyes. Also, couches >>> table desk
Turn your brightness down
@@kilgoretrout8896 This guy gets it.
Nah we don’t want a couch
@@mega64 Hi Derrick, we all know Rocco would love the return of the couch so I know he didn't write such slander. Shawn is too nice to say he hates couches.
Nah
Will Pharell smash or pass?
Dig the Mystery Science Theater set!
1:24:30 neat trix
... heheheh
Sean being so upset about the shirt rankings is KILLING me
Agent Smith jumpscare 5:39:24
are Rocco and Mr Midnight still friends
Will Pharrell is awesome
I was laughing like a maniac at the work lunch table during the Making A Skit section. Holy fuck.
Been watching you guys since the day the Resident Evil 4 video came out. Congrats on another year!
rocco talking about fitness after the fortune teller. my boys gonna get mulked up! go for it brother!

This dude really hit us with the, "uh oh...Trevor time". Talk about Mega64 turning 21 years old
Mega64 shirt design trading cards WHEN
Mr Midnight should just dress up likd Derrick and be "New Derrick"
I knew Mr Midnight would not be allowed in the airport.
You can smell the pirates of the carribean water 😩
I can see why Matt and Trey brought the place back.
Like for Derrick.
Best event in a long time! Derrick had me dying in the skit filming
YES MR MIDNIGHT PUT US OUT OF OUR MISERY!
Fans getting mad some of the boys don’t like past designs of shirts is hilarious. Wait until they find out musicians barely like their number one hit songs!
Will Pharrell was funny lol
55:40 Shawn should buy some weed
What's the music that plays at 1:01:45?
am i the only internet soldier that likes the deadpool movies? I've never gotten the opinion of other Mega64 fans but I feel like I am. I don't love Ryan Reynolds but those movies are funny to me.

Id say its a little too honest, and as a consumer I really hate honesty from the companies I buy from
Dunno I just buy merch if I think it looks cool. Don't really give a shit what anyone else thinks of it.
Happy 21 years!
I gotta remember to actually watch these live so I can contribute to the skit portion.
god i love mega64
DAMN ITS MR MIDNIGHT!!!!!!!
