    I dont understand how and why James/AVGNs subscribers dropped and hasnt peaked since then. This man, busted his Rump and pioneered UA-cam, amongst a dozen otheres. He set the bar for content and what it takes as a Creator. 90% of the videos nowadays are "Reaction" videos, heck even reaction of reaction videos. Then otheres who sit in front of the Camera, not talking to the viewers/subscribers, as if they just carry-on in there Average life and pressing record. James went way way beyond that, all of his research, schooling, editing, producing, amongst so many other things.
    Not to mention the 40 some odd thousand people who tried copying his work, that wasnt even quality, just quanity. He took it upon himself amongst all the hours/days/weeks of work. For just some other idiots crapping out a video an hour kind of thing. Its highly agitating whether you were a fan of James or AVGN or not. He deserves much more credit for the hardships he's endured.
    @James,
    I hope for the best to you. As I wish you can get the budget/funding for the work that you really want to do. Like movies or even something through UA-cam Red.
    I'll tell you all this much. 2017 UA-cam -- the viewers and the greedy mongrels of you to corporates a.k.a. Google this is the Tipping point of UA-cam in general.
    Thank you James, for the many many years of great Content

    I'm so happy I have been a fan since I was 8 years old, now I'm 17 still re-watching his work. My favorite is Board James. While his other work I love just as deeply. The legend of his career (Angry Video Game Nerd) and the bullshit man are my Childhood characters I love deeply. I've never had a UA-camr have this kind of Childhood effect on me. I think it's because of James Rolfe's Personality that makes me happy. He's so kind in real life, while his Characters are so different from himself (just like a character should be.) If he ever sees this comment I would be real happy, since I have all the DVD seasons of Board James and The Angry Video Game Nerd (including the movie.) He's basically my Childhood actor I adore watching. He's on the same level as Jim Carrey, since he's my Childhood actor as well. I'm really happy that I've watched him over the years!

  • @BlackburnBigdragon

    When I saw the "Fireball Island" review, I noticed the firejewel piece. The game company actually recycled that game piece from another board game called "Lazer Attack" from Milton Bradley. I had that game as a kid back in the 1970's. The game had a "Death Star" with a spinning light in the center and the players had clear, plastic, spacecraft that had to move around the board mining those gems. They then had to fly in close to the space station and jam the gems into the laser ports of the space station and if the light came out of one of the gems when you spun it, you won. You would play the game in the dark and the effect was pretty cool because when you would spin the light, it would illuminate your ship and make it glow if it hit it and cause you to lose all your gems. I still have one of the gems and I think one of the space ships from that game that I now use as model scenery for miniature wargaming. Anyway. I thought that I would share that.
