Man, My Dard is always going on about the ability to move an operating system between computers using a wrist strap. I wish my Dard would shut up about it :D
I'm not sure which UK accent they have (Irish??) but from what I can tell, I think they're actually Spanish! I couldn't confirm though so I didn't use it in the video.
I'm guessing it was linux made to boot from the usb stick instead of whatever os is on the computer you plug it into. Which is something you can do for free with any cheap ass usb stick every person on planet earth already has 6 of.
Oh wow, like 9 years ago I was in a school where every student was handed a cheapo rubber wristband with a built-in 2GB USB drive. We were so ahead of the times!
just ~imagine~ the screen and be like the kid with the scooter! mushrooms everywhere! :D but seriously, i wonder how many people didn't catch on to that...
Kljunas put the androids on them stick and stick that stick on them screen of them tvs and youve got them pc you be wantin. like remix os or some shit like that shit? man you know now we be talkin.
Yeah at least this Intel thing is actually a computer, not just a bootable flash drive like the one in the video. Still a lot more limiting than a laptop though since you need a monitor/TV to use it.
Legendary Super Vegeta There's actually a $300 fine for the use of "xD's" on the internet so if you could just send that to my Paypal then that would be great
Just slap the word "gamer" or "game" onto something, and a bunch of people will throw money at you. Gamer Fuel. Gameband. Gamer Rice Maker. Game Shoe Shine Kit. Who wants to play Pong nowadays, never mind playing it on a tiny screen? So dumb.
I would totally buy a Gamer Rice Maker. But yeah all these "FOR GAEMRZ" products really just show me some of the people in our circles are the most gullible motherfuckers on the planet. Oh well, someone's gotta buy all that Funko trash.
Most of the people who buy all that "for gamers" garbage aren't real gamers. Remember, in current year it's cool to pretend to like nerdy things, but not cool to actually like them or be a nerd. Most of the morons who waste money on this shit are people who think they're 1337 g4m3rz because they watch Twitch streams and LPs, and maybe actually play vidya once every couple of weeks.
Over a 100$ for something I thought about buying from ebay for 15$ but thought it was too expensive being as useless as it is and they achieved their goal. This is some pretty cringy stuff.
Ugh. You didn't even see all the kid shit in the Stormfly pitch. I should have shown it but I thought I'd rather keep my subscriber numbers up by not having my viewers kill themselves in the middle of my video.
How the fuck have they aquired the Atari name? Also the kid trying to pretend the laptop in his hands is hard to carry around is soo funny when you consider that a laptop is not only more powerful as a fucking USB stick but has screen and keyboard built in.... DAD
Atari, as it is now, will licence it's brand out to anyone if they get paid enough. They've overseen new version of classic Atari properties which are, to be charitable, abject fucking garbage. Terribly developed games that barely function that were farmed out to crappy devs to be made as cheaply as possible and hopefully make a quick buck for the rights holder. They aren't picky at all.
Atari aka Infogrames (who own the Atari IP still to this date) are basically whoring their names out to whoever gives them money for whatever reason. They even got Nolan Bushnell back (the man who founded the original Atari). That is how they got the Atari name. It means nothing these days and most gamers these days don't even know the name Atari (outside of the hardcore gamers, the casual audience has no idea of their existence) so essentially the brand is worthless.
Atari may have had a chance to be relevant again during the Midway games era of the late 1990s, but when that went broke the IP is pretty much licensed to anyone making the brand somewhat worthless. It's like how Zenith or Westinghouse used to mean something back in the 1980's, but is now a brand you'll see stamped on worthless Chinese junk.
A memory stick can replace a computer? You'd have to be a complete idiot to hear that and think, "Yeah, I can trust these people with my money." It would be like if I was selling tires and said that they could replace the entire car. Or if I sold a door and said it could replace an entire house.
I bought a smartwatch a few years back and I never found myself using it as anything other than a regular watch, an Atari logo probably wouldn't change that.
I only use analog watches but the e-ink ones look pretty cool. I can't see myself using a smartwatch though. I barely use apps for anything more than podcasts.
I acquired a smartwatch in a prize draw, its back in its box it came in and has been for over a year. I turned it on looked at it features never did wear it.
You didn't touch upon the fact that you are running a snapdragon and that amoled screen off of like a 2.5 amp hour battery, this thing would have the runtime of a fart.
these people are complete fools if they saw those prices and still hit the pledge button. Also, they don't even include the wristbands. What a bunch of hacks.
Your videos always push me to look up the products, research the potential shady websites and compare my ideas with yours. I really appreciate it as a viewer.
I was wondering, could I interest you in a wristband that could possibly take your videos from one computer to another for you to have convenience to upload them Mr. StopDrop&Retro? I will only need $50,000 and I can have it at your door tomorrow!
I am just sitting here completely baffled as to how the brand name ATARI managed to rake this many suckers in. Haven't they seen what they've done to Alone in the Dark, Haunted House, and RollerCoaster Tycoon?
Here's just some ideas with wearables, I wish I could buy this stuff right now *Smart cloths that wireless charge your devices just from your pocket your face/ wrist *Why have a smart watch when you could have smart glasses, if it repaces the $300 screens in our flagship phones they will pay for themselves * If the battery is in your clothes/ pocket, you don't need massive batteries in our phones *If we're all wearing clothes with Tech in them, then why not combine phones and laptops, just a computing device could by 0.3 /5 /5 and could be moved around your clothes, the power/ data wires wouldn't even be noticeable. *Who needs a gaming headset when your microphone is built into your shirt *This is already a thing but you could put a heating pad in your clothes, it's already a side effect I'm putting electronic so close to your body, obviously cooling will need to be a concern but heat is certainly appreciated
I will never again purchase something with an AMOLED display. Period. My phone has one, and within a year, it had the most horrible burn in I had ever seen on anything in my entire life. Now it's to the point of ridiculous and I can't afford another one. On a white screen I can see multiple status bars up top, a big rectangular chunk in the middle, and the entire keyboard at bottom. You can see it no matter what though. And it's a pretty big display that doesn't stay on 24/7...couldn't imagine that on a watch.
Joey Montanez then dont put yout phone in a flame.... thats unless you have a really disgustingly shitty phone with a fake amoled screen that goes white next to heat
Fuck it, i'm going to make a kick starter putting linux on USB sticks. I dare you to criticize it and prove i hate you afterwards :P That said, i kinda wonder what it would take.
I don't think i'm evil enough to follow through with my scheme.... How about i write a book on how to linux for newbies. Then i could completely forget to write the book, and be evil!
Too many people here not dissing this, but dissing smartwatches in general. As someone who has had one, they have their uses. Used my apple for tracking my swimming, for example. Also had a gameband product in the past and it worked very well for what it was. Kept all my Minecraft saves safe in the band and on the cloud, and I was able to plug and play whether I was home or on a school or library computer. That being said, I'm not sure about the ethics and craftsmanship of this particular product. From the looks, it's not a scam yet but a struggle at best. But what I do know is the "gameband" idea had its merits for being able to plug in to any computer and play with all your saves and the smartwatch thing is not a waste for people who like little gadgets or have a specific use for it. Lots of people here don't seem to understand that just because they don't see a use for anything it doesn't mean other people don't have one. Again I'm not commenting on this product specifically because it does look very behind and a bit like a dumpster fire, but I have nothing against the gameband concept or the smartwatch one in general. They're great for the people that have a use for them, coming from someone who's used both at one point or another.
Thank you for that compliment! I took a lot of time and trimmed out a couple things and because of it I think this video flowed a lot better. It's all learn as you go so I guess I'm on the right track! Thanks again!
"Think about it, that's basically a PC for $59" Except you can't play on it, download stuff, use websites, get porn, CONNECT A MONITOR, customise the interior, have a desktop, have enough space for ANYTHING... Oh and PCs are (usually) good quality, not just Chinese plastic.......
I know this is a few months old.. but can I just bring your attention to 9:08 Pause it right there. "Stormfly loves XXX" I guess that cockring USB wasn't far off there
Given the obvious Atari nostalgia cash grab, I was just waiting during the whole pitch for Mike K to jump out from under a pile of RETRO mag limited edition one-of-30,000 books.
I remember seeing that kickstarter for the stormfly. It surprised me how amazed people were about a bootable flashdrive. I found out about how to do that when I was a freshman in high school after my school blocked halo through the windows firewall. Their mistake was blocking the sending port and not the receiving port. All I have to do is host the game and everyone else can join.
James Alexander So many memories, am I right? When there was no work assigned on one of our computer lab classes we did nothing but just play some rounds of Halo LAN CTF.
JackNet Productions Yeah those days were great. Too bad my college locked it's bios so I can't boot off of my external hard drive anymore. I guess someone already had my idea before I got to college and it got too big and someone ruined it. I never told anyone else how to do it and only one guy figured it out. Once I left I let a few people in on how to do it.
I just love your channel dude! Your analyses of these campaigns are amazing. It's just so satisfying to hear you thoroughly going through them and drawing the right conclusions. I'm eagerly waiting for a new video from you man!
You can buy the complete collection of Keen games on Steam for $5 and you can get a Keen 1 and 4 on the Android Apps Store for free. Keen 4 has the Pong game on a wrist watch so that can be the definitive version though I've played the first game in the series slightly more.
dude i see some people saying ur not funny, honestly i got hooked on ur channel from this vid, the sarcastic remarks and over the top jokes is what keeps me coming back, please keep it up
"...so if you want to replay all those classic games with all the finesse of playing with your peehole, the hey, this could be the smart watch for you!" Lmfao I haven't laughed that hard for awhile, jeezus christ fukken subbed
The second I saw the word "Atari" I knew that this was a scam. The only thing that Atari has succeeded in doing during its entire history is scamming people, and doing things that are probably illegal.
My guess is that being a subscriber of Larry Bundy Jr. is why this was recommended to me... and that was a good call. This video made me laugh AND exposed a fraud, so well done all around!
I mean I guess I carry my oversized laptop like that sometimes when I have a bunch of cables my mouse and stuf and I don't wanna make more than one trip to go upstairs and back down
This is going to end up like the Ouya, Get other funded, people wait for it, the CEO lies, Product is realised, Backers don't get the product on time, ends up as a joke, company goes bankrupt and gets brought by a Company
Just stumbled onto this video today (Mar 8th, 2018), and after watching I immediately searched for the project on kickstarter, and it appears that your predictions are coming true...
Anyone else remember doing this long before any of these kickstarters? With the PortableApps launcher menu and OpenOffice on a pen drive, and a bunch of games to play at break time in school?
You know what's really easy to use? Amazon Music. It can stream my music so that I don't have to store it on an SD card. Okay, maybe I sound salty, but it's probably because I think my Pebble Time is the ultimate smart watch. Why? Because it does a really good job of being, first and foremost, a WATCH. It has 7-day battery life. It's always readable. It doesn't waste power running various apps. I sound like an evangelical but this thing does what I want a smart watch to do without all the trappings of standalone Android thingies. I can see who is calling and dismiss the call immediately without pulling my phone out. I can read texts in an instant. I can't fathom why people interested in smart watches bought anything else. I never have to plug an SD card or anything else into my watch. It gets everything it needs from my phone. Most of the things people claim are negatives about the Pebble and Pebble Time (no touchscreen, for instance) are the very reasons why it's so great.
I'm glad to see you talking about the Kickstarter. When it launched a couple of friends pointed it out to me and i thought it was one of the stupidest ideas ever. "You can do the same thing with a Pen Drive. Heck, even with Steam Cloud", i said. And i loved the StormFly part, shows even more the scammy nature of this campaign. How people fell for this stuff? Cheers.
Yeah, you can tell this campaign was going to be sketchy before it even launched. It's shameful that this guy is just trying to sell flash storage in different formats and doesn't even tell his backers about his previous campaign.
I'm new to your channel as of today and I'm very much enjoying this as a mindless entertainment while stuck sitting around with my feet up. Thanks! Oh, and I know your thing is tech kickstarters (or it is from what I've seen thus far), but one of the funniest scam trends I've ever seen actually comes from the world of yarn. Yes, yarn. It started with small vendors overselling spots in subscription services known as yarn clubs which are huge with some hand knitters. To escape the heat, someone started a rumor about their own death. Then only minutes later got busted. This has started the ongoing joke about "being dead for 15 minutes". One of the biggest "dead for 15 minutes" scams came from a company called FibroFibers. It was also one of the top Kickstarter scams of all time, so it's pretty easier to research. I was shocked when it went down, as I actually knew the company owner from a disability support group. She's since vanished, as far as I can tell.
Evilkittyof doom I really don't think so. In the 80's to play Space Invaders or any actual game you would need a big ass heavy console, and you were playing it on a damn phone? That's some pure bullshit.
Hmmm if only there were some device that you have on you pretty much everywhere you go that could do all of these functions and more, only way better and with a much bigger screen. Sigh...........I guess only my children will live long enough to see something like that.
What? They make phones that do this stuff? Why would someone put my only video entertainment system into a phone on my kitchen wall? My TV isn't even in the kitchen. You're stupid!
Well, they didn't even meet the lowest of expectations. Not only was it canceled, but the company was also not able to refund backers after raising half a million dollars.
Even considering only smartwatches that are on the market right, this thing is not the fastest by any mean. The snapdragon 2100 is the default SoC of every modern Android Wear smart watch. There are chinese smartwatches with normal smartphone SoCs. Also, both the Gear S3 and the Apple Watch series 2 have faster SoCs.
Exactly, and they know this. That's why they put it in quotes. They don't even cite a source for who made that claim so I wouldn't be surprised if they made it up themselves.
It's a valid criticism and my favorite comments are the constructive kind, so thank you. This video is different than the others and I have to agree it began a little too hot. But I have to mix things up and experiment or my content will go stale. Some viewers seem to be enjoying it a lot. The next Kickstarter video probably won't be so over the top, I'll turn it down. I can't guarantee you'll like every video I make but I can guarantee you I'll try my best to make them all enjoyable.
Man, I thought he was pretty chill. Watch AVGN or Nostalgia Critic if you want to see the definition of "angry screaming and cussing"... As for the hostility, I didn't notice any, though I'm sure it's hard to hide your contempt when talking about shameless scammers who are obviously full of shit, yet somehow manage to get away with it twice in a row.
Scr... screaming and cussing? What kind of wonderland are you living in, cuz I'd love to visit! This was supremely crafted snark aimed at this product and the fools who are throwing their money at it, they might as well be tossing it down a hole.
Hah this game up because I was watching someone else's video on how they aren't even going to make the watch at all. So even worse they will not even be making this sorry backers.
their campaign lacks as much disclosure as Trump's cabinet. And yeah, I'm sure the real problem is people discussing that issue... deflecting just like Trump. Get your analogies in order.
Skibility Gaming no they aren't. Didn't even see any single toxic comment. Do you even know the meaning of that word or do you just use it because it's a trend?
There are so many really bad kickstarter campaigns, and you do a great job of going through them. Would it be possible for you to make a short video on how to avoid these stupid mistakes when making a kickstarter and what would make companies seem more backable?
I don't know if it's possible to make a video that covers all the scams out there, I've seen some ingenious ones that mix it up. But I have thought about making a hokey 50's style educational film about "Crowdfunding AND YOU!" We'll see if I get time to make it in the future.
Man, My Dard is always going on about the ability to move an operating system between computers using a wrist strap. I wish my Dard would shut up about it :D
but he has the Enterwebs
nd now i know i watch the same videos someone i watch watches (watchception)
I always thought that i spend way too much time on UA-cam but then i see Larry and i feel like im not alone anymore.
I'm not sure which UK accent they have (Irish??) but from what I can tell, I think they're actually Spanish! I couldn't confirm though so I didn't use it in the video.
It's an Irish accent but I can't narrow it down more than that. Lots of criminals like to hang out in the south of Spain
HOW. CAN. THEY. COMPARE. A. USB. STICK. TO. A. PC.
Don't you need a freakin' PC to fire this USB stick up? :/
Didn't you listen?
It can run on itself!
ignorants...
Look Dial0pl, i bought a 1tb 7200 RPM hard drive and installed linux on it. It's just as good as a new computer!
Diabl0pl the storm fly is basically the intel atom but with moderately updated parts
Diabl0pl yes
I'm guessing it was linux made to boot from the usb stick instead of whatever os is on the computer you plug it into. Which is something you can do for free with any cheap ass usb stick every person on planet earth already has 6 of.
Oh wow, like 9 years ago I was in a school where every student was handed a cheapo rubber wristband with a built-in 2GB USB drive. We were so ahead of the times!
I still have mine. They suck
lol it's better than our 100MB server storage
I saw someone that had a 4GB one. I thought it was awesome.
Maddin1313 Now I'm jealous, I had to buy my 1 gb flash drive :(
I remember buying a 256mb drive for 20$.
Now you can only find them in a museum :D
Yeah cause a USB stick can totally replace a laptop... somehow...
just ~imagine~ the screen and be like the kid with the scooter! mushrooms everywhere! :D but seriously, i wonder how many people didn't catch on to that...
Kljunas put the androids on them stick and stick that stick on them screen of them tvs and youve got them pc you be wantin. like remix os or some shit like that shit? man you know now we be talkin.
Kljunas but wait!! There's more!

What if it becomes a Terraria wristband...
I'll settle for the USB cock ring.
StopDrop&Retro Willing to buy me one there mate?
roblox wristband
That's literally what it is I'm not joking
Go to their kickstarter page, there's literally a Terraria edition.
Wow, a micro SD card that I can plug into something and carry everywhere I go? Shut up and take my money!!!
What A time to be alive.
Wow it's almost like my phone!
Subscribed. I love your profile pic and content.
And only 50 bucks for a massive 32gb MicroSD card? That's not much more than what I paid for that 128GB MicroSD the other day!
these people are complete fools if they saw those prices and still hit the pledge button. Also, they don't even include the wristbands. What a bunch of hacks.
I know this comment is very old but as of 2020 i just baught a 400 gig sd micro for less then 60$ on sale via Amazon. This atari band is a joke lmao.
Your videos always push me to look up the products, research the potential shady websites and compare my ideas with yours. I really appreciate it as a viewer.
im so glad you showed up in my recommendations....finally youtube did something good
I was wondering, could I interest you in a wristband that could possibly take your videos from one computer to another for you to have convenience to upload them Mr. StopDrop&Retro? I will only need $50,000 and I can have it at your door tomorrow!
I'll take 10,000!!
StopDrop&Retro Fucking hell, this guy beat me to it.
im out
the guy that in the video is involve with atari box i'm that you will make a video about atari box
I am just sitting here completely baffled as to how the brand name ATARI managed to rake this many suckers in. Haven't they seen what they've done to Alone in the Dark, Haunted House, and RollerCoaster Tycoon?
It's so sad to see how Atari branding has been whored out. No wonder it ended up on this watch.
Here's just some ideas with wearables, I wish I could buy this stuff right now
*Smart cloths that wireless charge your devices just from your pocket your face/ wrist
*Why have a smart watch when you could have smart glasses, if it repaces the $300 screens in our flagship phones they will pay for themselves
* If the battery is in your clothes/ pocket, you don't need massive batteries in our phones
*If we're all wearing clothes with Tech in them, then why not combine phones and laptops, just a computing device could by
0.3 /5 /5 and could be moved around your clothes, the power/ data wires wouldn't even be noticeable.
*Who needs a gaming headset when your microphone is built into your shirt
*This is already a thing but you could put a heating pad in your clothes, it's already a side effect I'm putting electronic so close to your body, obviously cooling will need to be a concern but heat is certainly appreciated

I like it.
I love it. They should also have slapped one of those hologram stickers on it. It would have been a wearable notebook that does some energy healing.
needs more worry stones.
no the electricity in the watch would interfere with the energy in the sticker god you're such an idiot
This watch can float in the air, and project you into a virtual reality world that is actually real!

They're great for the people that have a use for them, coming from someone who's used both at one point or another.
Their fucking bluetooth logo was backwards! How did I not notice until now??
So glad to see your channel finally gaining this much deserved momentum, keep it up!
I know! I get little boosts in subs here and there. Shows I'm doing something right!
I saw this in my feed and I got excited I greatly enjoy watching your videos and have watched some over 10 times
Thanks for watching my videos!! I'm glad to have you as a fan!
Excellent editing - probably your best yet!
Thank you for that compliment! I took a lot of time and trimmed out a couple things and because of it I think this video flowed a lot better. It's all learn as you go so I guess I'm on the right track! Thanks again!
"Think about it, that's basically a PC for $59"
Except you can't play on it, download stuff, use websites, get porn, CONNECT A MONITOR, customise the interior, have a desktop, have enough space for ANYTHING... Oh and PCs are (usually) good quality, not just Chinese plastic.......
I know this is a few months old.. but can I just bring your attention to 9:08
Pause it right there.
"Stormfly loves XXX" I guess that cockring USB wasn't far off there
At least they didn't put a SNES mini in there.
Given the obvious Atari nostalgia cash grab, I was just waiting during the whole pitch for Mike K to jump out from under a pile of RETRO mag limited edition one-of-30,000 books.
I can turn it into anything I want?
Fried apple pie, here I come!
Wow. Flash memory in 2017 needs dedicated snapdragon processor to function!
I remember seeing that kickstarter for the stormfly. It surprised me how amazed people were about a bootable flashdrive.
I found out about how to do that when I was a freshman in high school after my school blocked halo through the windows firewall. Their mistake was blocking the sending port and not the receiving port. All I have to do is host the game and everyone else can join.
James Alexander So many memories, am I right? When there was no work assigned on one of our computer lab classes we did nothing but just play some rounds of Halo LAN CTF.
JackNet Productions Yeah those days were great. Too bad my college locked it's bios so I can't boot off of my external hard drive anymore.
I guess someone already had my idea before I got to college and it got too big and someone ruined it. I never told anyone else how to do it and only one guy figured it out. Once I left I let a few people in on how to do it.
Memories, I remember playing Counterstike with the gang till some loser kid snitched on us and got the club disbanded
They are back at it with the Ataribox.
I just love your channel dude! Your analyses of these campaigns are amazing. It's just so satisfying to hear you thoroughly going through them and drawing the right conclusions. I'm eagerly waiting for a new video from you man!
Now you can play Pong on your wrist like Commander Keen.
I still need to play that damn game. Is there a definitive version? (of Keen, I mean)
You can buy the complete collection of Keen games on Steam for $5 and you can get a Keen 1 and 4 on the Android Apps Store for free. Keen 4 has the Pong game on a wrist watch so that can be the definitive version though I've played the first game in the series slightly more.
dude i see some people saying ur not funny, honestly i got hooked on ur channel from this vid, the sarcastic remarks and over the top jokes is what keeps me coming back, please keep it up
"that's basically a pc for 59 bucks"
Yes, it is, all you need to run it is a...pc
Priceless :'D
well you just answered your own question
What question? :D
Also I just had a marathon of your videos, Just wanted to let you know that I appreciate your work :)
"...so if you want to replay all those classic games with all the finesse of playing with your peehole, the hey, this could be the smart watch for you!" Lmfao I haven't laughed that hard for awhile, jeezus christ fukken subbed
Thanks dude!! More laughs on the way!
The second I saw the word "Atari" I knew that this was a scam. The only thing that Atari has succeeded in doing during its entire history is scamming people, and doing things that are probably illegal.
that's the truth. At least their plug&plays are okay even if they're running on gimped chips aside from the Flashback 2.
Et game.
My guess is that being a subscriber of Larry Bundy Jr. is why this was recommended to me... and that was a good call. This video made me laugh AND exposed a fraud, so well done all around!
Thanks! I love Larry!
Time for a follow up video now that they officially cancelled the campaign lol
"They were too successful" was the exact point at which I hit the like button.
It's viewers like you that I have to thank for making ME so successful! ;)
This dude is at it again: Feargal Mac is making the Ataribox. Will you cover that too?
you just blew my mind fella
Yes another video and its a kickstarter one! Keep them coming bro I love your videos keep up the good work!
Thanks!
GG THEY CANCELLED IT AND NO REFUNDS.
Gg no re?
I died when you said cockring with a usb stick HAHAHHAA
I mean I guess I carry my oversized laptop like that sometimes when I have a bunch of cables my mouse and stuf and I don't wanna make more than one trip to go upstairs and back down
I'm backing this amazing project! I can't wait to get my Gameband!!!
1 video each 2 years, nice
Yesssssss I was having a shitty friday, I saw this and got instantly cheered up. Thanks for uploading :) love your vids.
This is my favorite comment! I love it when I hear my videos made someone's day a little better. It's the best feeling in the world.
"latest android OS"
6.0.1
That is not...
I really like this kind of content from you! really enjoyed it. great work
Thanks! I've got more videos like this on the way! See ya around
Oh my god, go to CNN 10. It shows an interview with the translater app guy from kickstarter.
I searched and don't see it! You have a link?
I'd stay watching your kickstarter/indiegogo scam videos the whole day. Holy shit.
This is going to end up like the Ouya, Get other funded, people wait for it, the CEO lies, Product is realised, Backers don't get the product on time, ends up as a joke, company goes bankrupt and gets brought by a Company
then they come back to Kickstarter under a new name and claim "First Campaign"
StopDrop&Retro XD
Just stumbled onto this video today (Mar 8th, 2018), and after watching I immediately searched for the project on kickstarter, and it appears that your predictions are coming true...
I love how the Stormfly $5 pledge says:
STORMFLY LOVES XXX
I kniw what they meant but still...
ahaha! I never noticed that!!
this is the third video of you in a row and i really like what you have to say, good work man !!
kind if great if you go back to watch and see the page was closed by kickstarter in like 2018 lmao
This is one of the funniest videos I've seen! I mean, this is maybe the most ridiculous Kickstarter story I've heard!!!
Time for an update, you called it. This project is dead.
Anyone else remember doing this long before any of these kickstarters?
With the PortableApps launcher menu and OpenOffice on a pen drive, and a bunch of games to play at break time in school?
Lemme see if Taobao already has a bootleg version of this Atari Gameband for $5.99
give it a month
You know what's really easy to use? Amazon Music. It can stream my music so that I don't have to store it on an SD card.
Okay, maybe I sound salty, but it's probably because I think my Pebble Time is the ultimate smart watch. Why? Because it does a really good job of being, first and foremost, a WATCH. It has 7-day battery life. It's always readable. It doesn't waste power running various apps. I sound like an evangelical but this thing does what I want a smart watch to do without all the trappings of standalone Android thingies. I can see who is calling and dismiss the call immediately without pulling my phone out. I can read texts in an instant. I can't fathom why people interested in smart watches bought anything else. I never have to plug an SD card or anything else into my watch. It gets everything it needs from my phone.
Most of the things people claim are negatives about the Pebble and Pebble Time (no touchscreen, for instance) are the very reasons why it's so great.
I'm sure they managed to get atari rights to do this.
StopDrop&Retro you're probably right :/
StopDrop&Retro Probably needed the little PR they never get anymore anyways, lol.
Finally you're back. And Carmelita too.
she's all I think about... because she specifically told me to.
Wait.... I thought you left stalking her for that translator ear thingy girl.
She is so...tortilla tortilla tortilla BOOM tortilla tortilla tortilla DELICIOUS!
I'm glad to see you talking about the Kickstarter. When it launched a couple of friends pointed it out to me and i thought it was one of the stupidest ideas ever. "You can do the same thing with a Pen Drive. Heck, even with Steam Cloud", i said. And i loved the StormFly part, shows even more the scammy nature of this campaign. How people fell for this stuff? Cheers.
Yeah, you can tell this campaign was going to be sketchy before it even launched. It's shameful that this guy is just trying to sell flash storage in different formats and doesn't even tell his backers about his previous campaign.
I'm new to your channel as of today and I'm very much enjoying this as a mindless entertainment while stuck sitting around with my feet up. Thanks!
Oh, and I know your thing is tech kickstarters (or it is from what I've seen thus far), but one of the funniest scam trends I've ever seen actually comes from the world of yarn. Yes, yarn. It started with small vendors overselling spots in subscription services known as yarn clubs which are huge with some hand knitters. To escape the heat, someone started a rumor about their own death. Then only minutes later got busted. This has started the ongoing joke about "being dead for 15 minutes". One of the biggest "dead for 15 minutes" scams came from a company called FibroFibers. It was also one of the top Kickstarter scams of all time, so it's pretty easier to research. I was shocked when it went down, as I actually knew the company owner from a disability support group. She's since vanished, as far as I can tell.
Why the hell would you want to play games on a watch?
Evilkittyof doom I really don't think so. In the 80's to play Space Invaders or any actual game you would need a big ass heavy console, and you were playing it on a damn phone? That's some pure bullshit.
Playing a game portable when portability isn't possible yet is cool. But when you can barely play it due to the small screen, eh.
I knew I felt uneasy about this Kickstarter when I saw it! So glad I didn't!
*BING*
*BING*
*1 UP*
*WAHOO*
Hey man turn off your kids watch, I am trying to study.
Lmao good job on the video, that achievement unlocked cracked me up real good.
haha, thanks!!
Hmmm if only there were some device that you have on you pretty much everywhere you go that could do all of these functions and more, only way better and with a much bigger screen. Sigh...........I guess only my children will live long enough to see something like that.
What? They make phones that do this stuff? Why would someone put my only video entertainment system into a phone on my kitchen wall? My TV isn't even in the kitchen. You're stupid!
I love how you present content, subscribed!!
Now, they're doing it again with a promised Atari VCS that's being funded on Indiegogo...
Well, they didn't even meet the lowest of expectations. Not only was it canceled, but the company was also not able to refund backers after raising half a million dollars.
Love these videos, always makes me smile at how stupid some kick starters are XD
oskis955 (And the supporters too, sadly)
"But it's more than that" "It's not just a _______"
Yeah that's probably not a scam we should donate
Even considering only smartwatches that are on the market right, this thing is not the fastest by any mean. The snapdragon 2100 is the default SoC of every modern Android Wear smart watch. There are chinese smartwatches with normal smartphone SoCs. Also, both the Gear S3 and the Apple Watch series 2 have faster SoCs.
Exactly, and they know this. That's why they put it in quotes. They don't even cite a source for who made that claim so I wouldn't be surprised if they made it up themselves.
Just like "Kickstarter Crap" but better. Very amused by the quality of the video !
I liked your videos more when it was more of flat tone sarcasm rather than angry screaming and cussing. still love your videos. keep up the good work.
LSequence Just watched the video. I must have missed the screaming and cussing? The sarcasm I must have imagined as well.
Yeah, it was a bit more hostile than usual.
It's a valid criticism and my favorite comments are the constructive kind, so thank you. This video is different than the others and I have to agree it began a little too hot. But I have to mix things up and experiment or my content will go stale. Some viewers seem to be enjoying it a lot.
The next Kickstarter video probably won't be so over the top, I'll turn it down. I can't guarantee you'll like every video I make but I can guarantee you I'll try my best to make them all enjoyable.
Man, I thought he was pretty chill. Watch AVGN or Nostalgia Critic if you want to see the definition of "angry screaming and cussing"...
As for the hostility, I didn't notice any, though I'm sure it's hard to hide your contempt when talking about shameless scammers who are obviously full of shit, yet somehow manage to get away with it twice in a row.
Scr... screaming and cussing? What kind of wonderland are you living in, cuz I'd love to visit!
This was supremely crafted snark aimed at this product and the fools who are throwing their money at it, they might as well be tossing it down a hole.
Did not have to THINK ABOUT IT!
Just subbed.
I have 15 games on my Apple Watch...
k
love your commentary dude, keep it up
Hah this game up because I was watching someone else's video on how they aren't even going to make the watch at all. So even worse they will not even be making this sorry backers.
You need to make more of this videos man.
more on the way! Right now I'm trying to alternate between hardware and crowdfunding vids.
*Hey Gamers!!*
GAEMRZ!!!
Gamewatch: Take your games on the go on an SD card in your watch!
Retro: So...I can put a game on an SD and just bring it with me...
Dude what happens to u
"I don't listen to terrorist demands". Genius!
these comments are as toxic as trumps administration.
their campaign lacks as much disclosure as Trump's cabinet. And yeah, I'm sure the real problem is people discussing that issue... deflecting just like Trump. Get your analogies in order.
Skibility Gaming FUNNY POLITICAL JOKES ECKSDEE DEE DEE DEE DEE
Skibility Gaming no they aren't. Didn't even see any single toxic comment. Do you even know the meaning of that word or do you just use it because it's a trend?
you got yourself a sub...you sir are doing great work...keep it up.
Thank you for your support! I'll keep it up.
ur not funny (beginning) rest of vid is quite ok :)
I agree. The beginning was a little over the top.
There are so many really bad kickstarter campaigns, and you do a great job of going through them. Would it be possible for you to make a short video on how to avoid these stupid mistakes when making a kickstarter and what would make companies seem more backable?
I don't know if it's possible to make a video that covers all the scams out there, I've seen some ingenious ones that mix it up. But I have thought about making a hokey 50's style educational film about "Crowdfunding AND YOU!" We'll see if I get time to make it in the future.
“Crystal clear”
Totally haven’t heard of that exact phrase in the PGS campaign before.
same level of crap
How much technology can be squashed into such small design these day's is mind blowing.
If only they could fit common sense.
