    oh my god. the kinztube footage just hit me like a truck. TW: suicide.
    6 years ago, my beautiful best friend ended her life at only 12. she loved webkinz so so much. she had so many, i was always jealous. i used to bring mine over and we would film low quality kinztube videos and laugh at the lack of plot.
    nobody watched them except for us and our friends. but when she died, her account got taken down by her family due to bullying. the videos are gone now. but i will always remember our webkinz skits and laughter. thank you for reminding me of these times.
    i leave a webkinz plush and flowers at her site every year. i’m so glad you unlocked such precious memories. ❤️

    Hey there! I founded Kinzvestigation a few years back, a group dedicated to unearthing and preserving the history of this poor 18 year old flash game, and I have some cool facts I'd like to share, specifically about Leaf Leaf. Of course it only lasted a few months. We have its files, actually, though not in a playable state. There IS one sound in them, a generic boing, but we dont know where or even if it was used. We interviewed a 2005 player some time ago, who testified that it had a catastrophic glitch that would let you farm money in it, and that when Ganz fixed it, everyone stopped playing the game, speeding up its removal. I'd take that with a grain of salt, of course, but it's very interesting. (Bonus fun fact: Remember the magical forest having music in it, that would change as you scrolled? Yeah, that just vanished one day and never came back. It's not even in the files anymore. This game is very functional

But as an adult now, I still smile when I see a Webkinz at a yard sale or a thrift store. I remember being obsessed with them but now I can admire them from a distance and leave them for someone else. This video is a great visit down memory lane.

    I'm surprised you didn't really mention the Wekinz Music Videos and the lore in those! I always assumed that the NPCs and Webkinz were the same species, because in the music videos regular pets you could adopt (Like the pink poodle, skunk, white fluffy cat, etc.) were seen walking around upright with clothes on like the NPCs. It kind of made me think that the Webkinz pets were like babies that grew up into NPCs. Idk if that makes sense though. Loved this iceberg, it reminded me to log back into webkinz and check on all my pet friends! :)

      I remember enjoying Dicekinz but never fully understanding it, and I guess that's how it was for most kids playing at the time. The fact that so many of us didn't really fully understand it probably kept the skill ceiling from getting too high and making it impossible for beginners to play

    Webkinz did allow me to name a camel “Humpy” and I remember being so confused and sad that every adult I introduced him to would laugh at his name. But my brother couldn’t name a pet “Simon” because it contained “mon”?? 💀😭

      Weird, why would “mon” be inappropriate? Unless I’m missing something here

    Kind of a funny story about the Webkinz ghosts you mentioned at 1:08:19
    I started playing Webkinz before I could fully read, so I usually had to have my dad playing with me to fully understand the game. We were playing the 'Don't Rock the Boat' game, and got the "jump scare" from the ghost pirate. If you encountered the ghost pirate, whichever pet you were currently playing as would have all it's health/happiness bars be knocked down to 0. I guess child me had a weird sense of virtual-pet empathy, so this situation made me so upset I started uncontrollably crying. My dad wound up taking me out for ice cream to calm me down, so it wasn't all bad lmao

    Love it. Planting the mysteries throughout the iceberg, just to put them all together at the end in one final grandiose conclusion. A detective finally catching onto the perpetrator’s scheme via clues unknowingly delivered throughout the course of the video. My passion for writing loves this execution of such a lofty claim. I second your theory.

    someone needs to document these toys-to-lie plush virtual pet sim games, whatever the genre is.
    i remember so many of them from childhood, including Shining Stars, SeaPals, Moshi Monsters, and a few others.
    I had so many webkins, myself. off the top of my head i had a Clownfish, a Google, a lion, and some other one.

    • @peliukun8164
      @peliukun8164 Před 10 měsíci +1

      moshi monsters wasn't toys to life, the merch came after the game and didn't involve redeeming things of that nature.
      most other webkinz clones are lost media with no preserved assets barring a video or two if they're lucky enough for even that. that's why there aren't many videos; the only physical remnant is the plush toy that they made for those sites

    This feels silly to write but god im so grateful for the soundtrack you used. The sims 2 on the DS was SUCH a strange weird ass game but by god it was one of my favorites as a kid and still is. The tracks you used from it are SO nostalgic and relaxing. I'm just grateful you used it honestly.

    @Leafpool2 Před 10 měsíci +9

    my favorite part of the milk cat lore is that it inspired one of the most horrific product promotional videos of all time of someone actually pouring milk over a spamton plush and making it thud against the wall. that wasnt something a fan did to reference that. the video is from the official deltarune merch store. and its all from webkinz baybeeeeeeeeee

  • @motionwaltz
    @motionwaltz Před 10 měsíci +10

    Jelly, thank you for 1) making an entertaining video! 2) putting bounds of thought and love into it!! webkinz was so huge that I think a lot of “remember THIS from your childhood??” creators have tried and failed to make any compelling webkinz facts + history vids. when you had a patterned puppies section I knew this would be the real deal. my second-ever webkinz was a chihuahua named lucy, i’m sure she and cinnamon would be total bros if they ever met!

  • @emilyhorton996

    Or-perhaps that Miss Birdy is the daughter of the two characters, and is now taking over the job, leaving her mother (the OG Miss Birdy) to retire alongside Dr. Quack. (Thats what I like to think, at least.)

    Your retelling of the great kiwi glitch was so good, that was the best day on webkinz for sure. I traded my medallions for a 2nd kiwi and the wish dragon! Although I will admit I was one of the redditors you screenshot who was then very stressed about getting banned. I'm glad it all worked out for us!

    As a Webkinz player since 2011, this was AMAZING. I learned so much I didn’t know. Mazin hamsters was my life back in the day. I miss it so much. I’ve seen many pet names at the arcade, Mr. Seaworld Victim being my favorite. I have pets of my own I like to get high scores with too! Most of them being named after characters I like. :)
    Another thing I’d like to mention was Daisy Doe’s campaign back in 2014. She wanted to remove junk food from the WShop and replace it with healthier food. Young me made posters against her and hung it on my bedroom door.
    I do actually remember the Webkinz killer, but I was a bit late to the rumor. I discovered it in 2015 maybe. I was somehow convinced it was real and had multiple nightmares about it. 💀
    That theory at the end was incredible. I’ll never look at those characters the same way again and I want to know more of the story now.

    I have been playing webkinz relatively consistently since 2008 and I love this video! A couple other youtubers similar to you have made videos on webkinz, but I just can't sit through them because it just becomes clear to me that I just have so much more knowledge and passion for webkinz than them, but this felt like I was hearing from an equal. Thank you so much! I actually learned a couple things I didn't actually know before and it's just really exciting for me to hear from someone who seems to love webkinz as much as I do!
