Hey metaljesus ur videos along with ones like these helped me get clean and sober. U guys showed me me I wasn't alone anymore. I 5hought I was the only gamer nerd in the world
For the last three years I have been watching these episodes when I decorate my Christmas Tree. I can watch them over and over again! Looking forward to this years episode!
Crazy you still have all of that old footage, that was great! I had a really hard time recognizing Rob with hair, though. I'm convinced that was an imposter. :)
This is one of the best shows on youtube. The nostalgia, the happy memories, and the hilarious stories are wonderful. This is a beautiful show. I'll relax tonight by watching some Irresponsible Captain Tylor. I never watched it back in the day, even though I was into anime and my interests were remarkably similar to Johnny and Robman's.
The 2019 Christmas Special brought me here and i am loving every single video. The old footage of your younger years were great too 😊 Have a merry Christmas to both your families! More power!
Love the show and love this special...thanks for taking the time to do this for us. Great gifts and memories! Merry Christmas and looking forward to the New Year!
My favourite video every year :) Good job putting this together so quickly, I always love hearing your stories, the old videos of you guys were a nice touch :D
What a great story, I love you guys and this is what makes this channel so amazing. You poignantly remind us time and time again why video games and anime is such an important part of our adult lives. The nostalgia. Sometimes I yearn for those happy, simpler times and since I don't have a time machine, I find comfort in knowing I can visit those fond memories any time I want through my games and anime. Merry Christmas guys and keep up the great work!
Awesome video guys!! So cool to see how much Rob Man loved the anime cell. These Christmas videos are always enjoyable to watch because they reflect how close the friendship is between you guys. Here's to a great 2013 and more HCG videos.
Just wanted to say, thank you for all the videos you bring us guys - it brings back so many great memories for me with my brother and/or friends playing those classic titles and consoles. Merry christmas HappyConsoleGamer, and a happy new year!
I like watching you guys giving present to each other. Great friendship you have!!! A person can live a hundred years without any best-forever friend :D
Thank you so much for the special. I have been wondering what that Tylor thing behind you was for a while now. It's great to finally see it. Also, you two look exactly the same as you did almost 20 years ago (minus Robman's hair, or course) lol.
Great Christmas Special as always:D These kinds of videos never fail to leave me with some sort of stupid grin when watching them. Here's to many more! Cheers!
Was searching for The Irresponsible Captain Tylor after watching and am watching through it now. The VHS set was much cheaper than the ultimate set haha. I can't stop watching it now.
Me and my homeboi re-watch your Christmas specials every Christmas before we exchange gifts, because both of you got us into it, and like Robman is to megaman, I'm like that with tomb raider and I've got some sweet fucking lara Croft merchandise over the years, so thank you for the tradition, and hope you both do this shit forever! That being said I also give incredible gifts, it's even more enjoyable than receiving a life size cut out of PS1 Lara (last year) and that my friend is a masterpiece! Merry Christmas, have a happy 2017 as well.
I can't thank you guys enough for talking about Captain Tyler, i went and checked it out too see if it was anything good and i found one of the best animes I've ever seen, thank you guys!!
Awesome video chief. Great to see 2 new videos so close together. Always great watching and hearing the stories you tell and from them sparking some nostalgic memories. Thanks for the video guys and hope you keep making more.
That's so cool, I always enjoy watching these and see you guys' reactions. Nothing like a good Christmas gift. I started watching anime roughly around 1995, Dragonball was playing on some really obscure channel, and every so often you could see a flick like Akira or Greean Legand Ran on Sci Fi channel, I can still remeber recording them off TV, horrible sound quality and all. Ah, memories. Amesome vid, guys!
as an anime otaku as well as a vid gamer, im very happy to know that johnny m is a big anime fan (thats a lot of vhs tape!!) and your friendship was somehow cemented by a particular anime :3 loved this story!!
Wonderful video this year, I am quite fond of the nostalgic moments that you guys share, it is honestly really touching. :) I am quite new to the channel but I have marathon-ed many of your episodes.. You guys are amazing and I hope that you all keep up the good work. This Christmas I actually purchased Ys, your reviews inspired me to get the game and I just wanted to say thank you, thank you very much for showing me these games and for the wonderful videos. Merry Christmas to the both of you!
I have always been looking forward to these, it is always fun to see your reactions and how much fun you both have. Merry Christmas Johnny and Rob ^_^!!
Holy shit! Thanks for getting me into Captain Tylor, guys! I just binged-watched the entire series in two days! Easily stands as one of my favorite anime series ever! :)
I got a book called "1001 Video Games you must play before you die" for christmas. I didn't expect much, but when you open a random page and get "Alien Soldier" and "Command & Conquer" you feel it has some quality :) Really nice christmas special you guys, loved every bit of it. Hope you have a lovely end for this season and a happy new year :D
This was a more touching episode, they enjoy the nostalgia that these gifts gives. Not everything is about rarity or about worth when it comes to items. All that matters is how they enjoy them, I found this episode touching and sweet.
Thats alot of anime well from not thinking it would have arrived to get in done and uploaded for Christmas Eve thats awesome Happy Holidays HCG ROB MAN
Damn you guys have RARE anime shows! I would definitely love to see more stories/reviews about anime/manga books to recommend us fans to watch! Keep up the good work!
It is weird to watch people open presents, but I look forward to this episode every year. Great show guys. I have always wondered what the TYLOR "game" in the background was. Knowing is half the battle...
Man, forgot about the xmas special until now. Great Xmas tradition. Mine is... wearing my Happy Console Gamer shirt, its a grat xmas shirt. Merry Christmas Johnny and Rob
Amazing!I remember when Tylor was localized in the USA it was like early 90's. At that time i was watching Space Captain Harlock, sadly dubbed by Harmony Gold.Still love harlock, in fact last year for Christmas my mother got me "Gun Frontier"you know whose in it? Captain Harlock! :D Merry Christmas Rob and Johnny!
OMG , I won't comment to avoid spoilers. But I too love the anime series mentioned in the video. One of the funniest series in anime history. Oh and as for Johnny's present ... he rolled a 20 for some great gifts! Merry Christmas Johnny and Rob Man and have a wonderful new year!
Definitely envious of that early 90s fansub collection! Did you manage to replace it all with legit tapes/dvds, or are there still some shows on those old tapes, that will only ever exist as fansubs?
dude can I make a suggestion? list the music you use in the description or after the vid. you put some really good shit in the background. Merry Christmas dude, love you man.
The Mega Man NES looks so badass. Anyway, I'm getting a modded PC Engine Duo for xmas this year, complete with region-switch, all capacitors replaced, and an s-video mod. Hope you guys have a great holiday season!
And a VERY Merry Christmas to you both you guys. Very well done this year, as always. Oh heck, Pink Horsy resting on the tree? Number one thing on my wanted list this year from Mr. Clause :D
Some awesome gifts you both got their and fantastic video got my even more into the Christmas spirit and I'm already in the best and joyful of moods too lol it's not 100% Christmas without your Christmas special :D anyways Merry Christmas wishing you and Robman and your families all the best :D
That was a lot of fun to watch. The old footage was so cool! Merry Christmas dudes \m/

Please show more old videos and photos, its awesome!
Johnny, I remember you saying you had an english accent when you were younger in one video. Will you ever sample us your best English accent?
How far you’ve come, sir.
This is the first time I saw the Christmas Special on Christmas. Frohe Weihnachten from Austria!
I watch these videos just to simply see rob man's surprised look on his face. Its always classic no matter how many holiday specials you guys do.
Merry Christmas you guys! I love watching these Christmas specials each year. They make me feel like I'm actually there :)
The 2019 Christmas Special brought me here and i am loving every single video. The old footage of your younger years were great too 😊
Have a merry Christmas to both your families! More power!
Love the show and love this special...thanks for taking the time to do this for us. Great gifts and memories! Merry Christmas and looking forward to the New Year!
These videos have become Christmas tradition for me, look forward to them every year! Merry Christmas guys!

Oh and as for Johnny's present ... he rolled a 20 for some great gifts!
Merry Christmas Johnny and Rob Man and have a wonderful new year!
I can't believe I now have to wait a whole year for the next Christmas Special...

Merry Christmas guys! Really cool gifts to each other, i never really played D&D growing up but i did play a Robotech version of it
Definitely envious of that early 90s fansub collection! Did you manage to replace it all with legit tapes/dvds, or are there still some shows on those old tapes, that will only ever exist as fansubs?
Rob is a great guy, and he tries his best, but GODAM does JOnny just KILL IT with the presents!
Just noticed that bad ass Ollie you threw, from a fellow skater, that was sick
Thanks for getting me addicted to Captain Tylor!
dude can I make a suggestion? list the music you use in the description or after the vid. you put some really good shit in the background. Merry Christmas dude, love you man.
The Mega Man NES looks so badass. Anyway, I'm getting a modded PC Engine Duo for xmas this year, complete with region-switch, all capacitors replaced, and an s-video mod. Hope you guys have a great holiday season!
Dude Johnny was that you doing an ollie.. that was super high!!!! FUCK YEAH! I would of never known Thats was rad!!
It was! back in the day I could Ollie a garbage can standing up!

And a VERY Merry Christmas to you both you guys. Very well done this year, as always.
Oh heck, Pink Horsy resting on the tree? Number one thing on my wanted list this year from Mr. Clause :D

Merry Christmas you guys! btw,how did you acquire that cell? it must be hard to find.liked the music you picked there,i recognized some Chrono Trigger
You two are lucky to have such a great friendship
That sweater is priceless, I always love these videos.

This is the best show of youtube.
Some awesome gifts you both got their and fantastic video got my even more into the Christmas spirit and I'm already in the best and joyful of moods too lol it's not 100% Christmas without your Christmas special :D anyways Merry Christmas wishing you and Robman and your families all the best :D
