For those still wondering: a Squinkie was a rubber pencil topper. Book fairs and Pizza Stores in my gradeschool town had them for sale for 50 cents. They didn't do anything other than decorate your pencil.
They were really popular at my school, and the "cool" kids were the ones that had the most Squinkies. I unfortunately had only one Squinkie (a green turtle) that I eventually lost when it bounced off my pencil and under a bookshelf. I was too scared to interrupt my 5th grade class and grab it, so I abandoned my only Squinkie child.
One last thing - squinkies had a big gaping hole on the bottom of them so that they could fit on a pencil. That led to some human squinkies having a giant hole where their butt would be.
i had squinkies for years and played with them all the time but i dont think i put them on a pencil even once
@Tristar please dont hurt me
then they made a game
i remember having this big cupcake set for the squinkies and you could put fake coins into it.. so i lost 20 cents
I completely forgot they were for your pencil. All I remember about them is that they made an epic boy's version called "The Trash Pack" or something like that, and it was just the same thing but they were rotten food and whatnot-
It is genuinely impressive how quickly squinkies drove salty insane
Little did we know that Squinkies were just another psychological experiment for MK Ultra designed to encourage rampant credit card theft. Absolutely jaw-dropping.
No I think it made his insanity insane
@@asimplekoala6687 god bless i am so ill i see MKUltra and the first thing in my mind is blackboxwarrior...
It was driving me insane also
I know in the VOD he claims that his friends get him these, but I like to think Salty just acquires these shovelware DS games through creepypasta-esque methods, and the only reason they havenât been hunted down by some kind of red eyed ghost is because playing the game is often worse than death.
they just show up in his basement every tuesday
Salty needs to stop going to weird garage sales and buying cursed game cartridges. One of these days theyâre going to find the real lost silver

Hi Dylan itâs Cc
After 9 minutes of mind numbing âSquinkiesâ seeing Gomotion suddenly appear on my screen was the final trigger to disconnect my soul, mind and body from each other.
Yeah, ikr? I had no idea she was Salty's editor
@@itsPlasma06 Salty gets different editors for different videos, I believe
it was just that this time Gomotion happened to be the perfect person to be editing since I believe only she could've absolutely destroyed my entire being
The quick cut to Petscop when he said "YOU CAN COLLECT CHILDREN?!" killed me hdshsdf
Hello, Derek, Iâm actually an expert on Squinkies lore (prior to 2017, anyways, it seems like they had a reboot, but the game seems to be based off of the original run so Iâm sure my knowledge will be valid)
Basically, Squinkies are canonically small rubber beings capable of mimicking human concepts such as ninjas and princesses, as well as animals, however, within the lore of Squinkies there are three worlds; the first world being Squinkie World, which is where, of course, Squinkies reside. The Squinkie world has a portal to the human world, that is to say our world, which is how they are able to be sold as collectible toys, though lore has it the squinkies disguise themselves as toys to learn about human culture and report back to Squinkie World through telepathy, mainly to discover new forms for Squinkies to become (thus there are some licensed Squinkies, like the Avenger ones, for example) and itâs pretty much like Toy Story in that they freeze anytime a human catches them. The third world is known as âSquashoplisâ and it is basically Squinkie Hell, in which beings known as Squashies exist. They are basically like flattened zombie squinkies, though they donât really eat squinkies or humans, but they do interfere with the Squinkies telepathy and prevent them from achieving more forms to mimick. Thereâs also an god like being known as the Squink master that they occasionally mention but theyâre never shown, but I do know that they use both he/him and she/her pronouns- that or the mentions of this character are just inconsistent but the former sounds cooler- and also the lore for the giant character based capsule machines is that they are Squinkies that managed to mimic huge statues but at the expense of their⊠Squinkmanity⊠yeahâŠ
this is insane thank you for sacrificing your own squinkmanity for this
I didnt know squinkies had actual lore i thought they were just squishy rubber things
You could be lying right now, but the thought of fucking Squinkies having gods and just straight up hell is to weird to be fake.
Ok
How does it feel knowing this absolute forbidden knowledge?
The eulogy to Ronald made me realize that Iâll never have children to make me a eulogy when I pass and I had an existential crisis for a moment. Thanks Dan, awesome video!
hey its okay just get some squinkies to fill that void in your soul đ
You are a sleeper agent
Donât worry man now that youâve watched the video the squinkies will show up in place of your non-existent children and give a eulogy for you itâs all g đ
The squinkies will be there, you will not stop them.
Holy shit Jodie absolutely killed the editing on the video, her editing style works really well with Derekâs comedy.
Wait Miss Jodie GoMotion herself? The lady with way to long arms
One of two youtubers that i watch who is trans, the other being miss Gamerchamp?
@@Sarah12471 9:00
@@ttahadrianex I'll admit 1 month ago was the first time i really watched this video, the rest of the time it was in the bathroom
Squinkies are small rubber toys you'd get through little capsules. They often came from gumball machine style toys, and the whole point was they were both collectible and squishy. The name squinky came from the squishability and how they were small. There were a lot of squinky designs, from people to animals to object.
Source - I owned them.
I also had squinkies as a kid, as in I stole them from my siblings
They made Hot Wheels and Cars ones that I still happen to own.
I used to own a few. They ended up becoming cat toys and all are missing except for one. One of the cats somehow learned to play fetch with them.
Fun fact, they DID work as erasers, I tried it when I had them.
@@gh0stgarbage that's really cool! I never even knew that, It wasn't something I considered tbh
why do i feel like squinkies is actually a slur in another language
Damn squinkies, tried to squink me out of my money
Those Squinkies takin my god damn united states of usa
If we work together, we can make it a slur in English.
those motherfucking squinkies are stealing our freedom and our babies!!!! :(
Fuck those dumbass squinkies trying to ruin our Freedom
My sister had a DS when she and I were kids, and I can confirm:
This is all that girl-marketed games were.
I had a littelest pet sho game on the ds that i only played out of boredom and i remember hating it
Blbkbbklvblbllv
Hearing Derek say "nyaa" made me feel as if he killed a percentage of my frontal lobe with an audio-telepathic lobotomy
That is insanely specific yet relatable
The Squinkies looks like this could've been a virtual pet website on paper, similar to Moshi Monsters or Neopets, but ends up on the DS.
A fate worse then death
Squinkies would be the type of website I'd love as a kid
I actually remember them I think, they were actually just little bags full of tiny squishy Lil guys. I had spongebob ones that I lost in my room and every now and then I would rediscover one.
Didnât Moshi Monsters come out on DS one time?
I had them when I was little, they were just tiny collectible squishy toys that came in capsules and had toy sets to put them in
This brings back a lot of memories. I owned this game, I owned a lot of Squinkies too. I had playsets for them and everything. I probably had over 100. I don't own them anymore but for a long time I did. Even when I was younger I think I hated this game. I played a lot of really shitty licensed games, like a lot of bad hello kitty ones and the likes.
6:49 Salty, please stop calling me out
Did you have Hello Kitty Picnic because I had that one and it was so utterly boring
Did you play a hello kitty city life or something like that where you had an apartment or something and you needed to get coins from minigames to get a bigger apartment (aka hello kitty: society)
@@thepaisano8849 i had that game and gave it to my little stepbrother so he could play it in his 3ds, then my mom and her boyfriend broke up and the game is now long gone. I couldâve enjoyed the Hello Kitty Society Experience if I actually had a funcional brain which I didnât develop till like 10 years old but now itâs gone forever :(.
Same all the way through. I still have most of my squinkies and the 2nd game, as well as a zhu zhu pets one and some god awful littlest petshop DS game. As for hello kitty I only remember briefly renting a game when I was probably 5, no clue which but the phrase " Better luck next time! " Still haunts me to this day.
I remember those. Frankly, I'm surprised they lasted as long as they did because they were definitely a choking hazard. I also remember that they were popular enough that they made a tough cool boys version called "The Trash Pack" which were just Squinkies but f***ing disgusting. Long story short, both these brands were just these tiny little rubber characters that were sold as little collectables, whether it be cute or gross because y'know if you're a girl it's gotta be cute, but if you're a boy go play in the dumpster.
wait They made the Trash Pack? I remember seeing commercials of those when I was a kid and I thought they were stupid. looks like tiny me was RIGHT
@@zinc333 well I think they made it, but I'm really not sure, since there were just a ton of those things floating around at the time
@@TheSerperior well I'm glad they're gone cuz they were just bad
Wait I remember the trash ones.
just looked at the trash pack and they're honestly cuter in like a weird way. they're just lil scrumblos
ok but seriously Gomo's editing really fit Salty's humor so well

After analysing Salty's Behavioral Patterns in this stream. I have now concluded that this game isn't designed for kids but as a CIA Interrogation Tool that was designed to melt your brain until you become so delusional and broken that you leak any and all sensitive information you have before they put you out of your misery for cooperating.
Swear to god that entire bit feels like a sleeper agent activation or something
hey dude, I just wanted to let you know that I was on the verge of an anxiety attack over uni but watching your videos helps calm me down. I'm glad this showed up on my reccomended page just nowđ
I will have an anxiety attack in your place my dude đ€ fuck that noise
@@Saltydkdan I didn't expect you to reply, thanks dude this made my day :)
Salty, you're spoiling us with these episodes.
Also you're right, just like Grookey, Squinkies sounds like a slur.
you know I didn't realize it at first but the sheer frantic pacing of this video's editting is 100% on brand for gomo.
My sister used to have the Squinkies when she was little, she was obsessed. They are little squishy animals or other cute creatures that are about an inch tall maybe?
The whole gimmick is that they're similar to the material of those slap hands that you stick to wall. (mind you, i don't think you could throw the Squinkies at the wall and have them stick, unfortunately) The name just came from the fact you could squish them. I think they got popular because of infomercials, because I remember the packages having 'as seen on tv' on them. There's similar larger foam versions of the same concept still floating around today. With how annoyingly expensive and variable in colors and animals that they are, they're basically more complex versions of those silly bands bracelets to collect.
Hope this helped someone understand what the hell these are and why kids liked them.
Also, as lots of other commenters said, theyre good to chew. I remember doing that a lot.
I used to have those so this video awakened a repressed memory in the best and worst way
it feels like having a brick covered in flowers thrown through my window
I owned Squinkies 2 when I was younger. I convinced my mom to buy it for me from a Big Lots. I remember it being one the first DS games I 100% completed and then I never touched it again. Can confirm that Squinkies 2 turned me asexual.
As someone that was in attendance for the Squinkies stream, I cannot stress enough how far this man went to avoid actually playing the shovelware game, and honestly, the McDonaldâs lore was probably the best part. RIP Ronald McDonald
My GOD I hope the editor for this one returns; the edits helped add to the mind-numbing chaos perfectly!
Squinkies-2Z was a sleeper agent program in the 2000âs that was officially discontinued in 2018.
I really enjoy how Salty does this to himself when it comes to these DS games. He really do be just pushing himself closer and closer to the mental limit. I wonder when heâll finally snap
The editor really put their whole squssy into this vid
Watching Salty slowly losing his sanity is hilarious
"Slowly" isn't the word I'd use for this lol
salty acquires these games through covert means, the sleeper agent bit wasn't a joke. The process involves such horrific details that so far noone has spoken out yet out of fear.
This was the first Salty stream I decided to attend. I was there for the whole chicken arc and then the mcdonalds wiki rabbit hole, and then the abandoning of the first game for the second one. 10/10
imagine the pain the slave devs at Activision must have felt while making these
I didn't know gomo was an editor for salty, it was strange to see the avatar out of nowhere
Imagine if someone says Squinkies and gets canceled on Twitter
1:15 The Petscop reference caught me off guard
I literally screamed at the top of my lungs when you told us that Ronald C. McDonald was unalived, and that eulogy made me cry into my 6-piece McNugget Happy Meal with a small fry and orange soda. Now Iâm going to look like a mess at my job interview.
âŠOn the plus side though, I got a Groot toy. Todayâs a win in my book!
I definitely missed out on Salty's ADHD romp by not watching this stream.
Squinkies are basically just glorified pencil toppers. They were these tiny rubber toys that had a hole on the bottom. You could buy them in packs of nine and usually the capsules were opaque (I think), so you couldnât see what you got until you opened it.
They also had some other things like an amusement park set to play with the Squinkies on a ferris wheel or roller coaster
Shout out to the OTHER Squinkies DS game that I had. It was a 2D platformer that probably gave me anger issues as a child.
Update: I JUST GOT TO 8:25 OMG THERE IT IS. IT WAS FUCKING ADVENTURE MALL!!
My favorite part of this game is when they said âitâs squinkin timeâ and then squinked all over those turtles
Salty had more fun looking at the McDonaldâs wiki than playing the actual game.
god i love the DS they used in charming its so gameplay
Thank god I wasnât the only kid who just wanted to chew these things, 9/10 almost as good as Polly Pocket clothing
Squinkies are the plastic cheese slices of DS games
this video unlocked a hidden memory within me at exactly 9:49 i looked at the map at the top screen and my brain just exploded as i realized i had played this game for hours on my ds as a kid and it all came rushing back to me. i did not want this. i hate you salty.
The best part of this stream was when he said "It's squinkin time" and then he squinked all over those guys.
I remember these things. They were basically very small human and animal toys. I think my mom got me a cat. I also remember putting in my mouth cause I just felt like it. And before you ask, yes I was put in the special ed class and my dad technically did left us, but I still saw him from time to time, but I think it still counts.
I love my crayons and I love the way they taste
Did you know there's crayola flavored lip balm
@@U.R.coolkid Da fuq does that even taste like? Wax?
@@thatweirdguyinthecorner i have no clue ngl, i wasn't the one who had the lip balm but it made me curious
Crayola does have trace amounts of lead so maybe that lmao
salty dropping so many new videos lately, I feel so lucky
I didnt know gomotion edited for Salty, that honestly makes so much sense lol
damn salty the uploads have been nuts, your vids have been helping me get through this week ngl. awesome content youâre putting out there dude
This has unearthed some long lost memories within me...
Also I got curious if I could find R34 of squinkies, but somehow I found a tag called "squink" with no description and only ten pics with said tag. One of the only things tagged with it was the last page of some Beastars Juno x Haru comic; just the last page for some reason
9:02 oh look, gomation, cool
Can we make Squinkies a religion and call it "Squinkianity" and everybody in it has to come to the Squinkies church every Wednesday to bless their Squinkless souls through the ancient power of Squinking
And the children are referred to as the Squintlets
Because I think that'd be pretty cool
Squinkie bless
Squinking sounds like something you do NOT do in public
I miss the old salty that wouldnât upload
12:10
Incredible. Had no idea Salty was the voice of Fawful this whole time.
My favourite part was when Salty said âIts squinky time!â and squinked all over the stream
honey wake up, salty is entering the prefrontal cortex
As one of the few gremlins here who had squinkies I can confirm they had that gumball machine esc thing from the first game and I ended up brutally and accidentally tearing one to pieces because it fell out of its capsule and paid the price by becoming victim to the shitty plastic overprice big toy. Great vid Salty!đ
I had over 100 Squinkies! They had a display thing to stick them on, I also had a gumball machine like thing where you put the squinkies in (they came in plastic surprise balls) and used a plastic coin to get one out. I collected them and loved them so much and want to find them if I still have them. My grandma even printed out squinkies coloring pages for me while at work
Derek the kind of guy ti title a video "Playing the worst DS games" and then proceed to play the best games known to man.
I love how a good portion is just trying to figure out what a squinkie is
Watching this stream dug up a very deep, dark memory. I used to collect these things. I had the gumball machine and everything. Bad times.
i actually had squinkies as a kid, they were basically just cutesy rubber pencil toppers that came in plastic capsules, i specifically remember having the squinkie dispenser toy as a kid which was basically just a gashapon machine you manually put the squinkie capsules into and turned a nob for them to roll out
Cant believe I bought Garfeldi merch like 4 minutes before this video came outâŠALSO DONâT DIS SQUINKIES IT WAS MY SHIT GROWING UP. Also fun fact: squinkies sometimes had actual hair attached to them and were collectable
Saw this live and less then halfway through I was so incredibly emotionally exhausted and wanted to choke myself out by the end of it
Dude, you've really made feel great you're so funny and really cheer me up, especially over this year :)
I remember the commercials for these things used to be everywhere in Nickelodeon. Itâs hilarious that he mentioned the âsleeper agentâ thing, because the second I realized it was about Squinkies, I remembered most of the words to that damn commercial. Pain.
my mom used to give me squinkies for going to church and as a kid... i would chew on them for some reason
Were they chewy?
@@spintowin8971 yeah since theres a hole in the bottom id like chew the hole open and closed. theyd make a little rubbery sound too when youd chew on them. i always felt ashamed of it but like they just weirdly made me feel like i wanted to chew it everytime i saw one.
I didnât know gomotion edited Sallyâs vids I love her content
0:43 Don't threaten me with a good time
I found a physical copy of this game in my GameStop and after watching this it felt like standing next to the elephantâs foot
We have minimal memory of Squinkies past "they exist" and "we grew up around when they existed" and "we'd see the ads because our younger brother was like 3 when they were hot" but 12:10 is honestly not too far off from how those ads sounded. Except with more of the narrator girl going "Squinkies, Squinkies, SQUINKIES!" peppered in, and less... ominous undertone.
I'm honestly surprised that there is a functioning website for Squinkies, legit thought they died out to be honest. I had a bunch as a kid and i remember loving the DS games, but man this one did not hold up at all lmao.
You weren't wrong about the Squinkies activating something. As soon as you played that bit from the commercial I felt a core memory unearth itself from deep within as I saw my childhood waste away in front of me
i used to have the little mermaid squinkies and some accessories as well! i would chew on them bc i liked the texture and i would also put them back into their capsules and throw em at my brother. whenever i was mad i would throw them on the ground while they were still in the capsules bc i wanted them to hurt and know i was throwin them bc i was rlly mad at them and it was all their fault.
6:53 literally owned that squinkie and it was one of my favorites
0:50 did it just say squid games or did salty give me another stroke this month?
I remember playing that second squinkies game- this has awoken a memory
both squinkies and silly bands got banned at my school when i was young. If they caught you with either of them, they were confiscated. This only made the problem worse and there was a whole underground trade ring for these things during recess. Those were better times.
Salty is still waiting on that response to what a Squinky is.
Being there live for the Squinkes stream was like being part of some government experiment that was also effecting the person conducting it at a much faster rate.
i donât usually laugh out loud at videos but i was laughing the whole time
the squinkies have taken hold of me
I used to LOVE sqinkies, I had so many, don't know where they all went though, I think I also had playsets that you could use the capsules they came in instead of just having round plastic balls laying around your room, I remember either having a dolphin or mermaid or both?
oh god i remember squinkies. i used to chew on them all of the time, so much that the paint rubbed off on one except for the face and some of the hair color and when i realized i had a meltdown bc i thought i was gonna get in trouble for making it naked
my sister actually had the sequel game and i remember both of us laughing at how weird it was when we were kids
SALT MAN BEEN SWEET THIS YEAR. THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING ANOTHER FILM. excited to WATCH.
i have a distinct memory of chewing on squinkies, i loved those things. i wasnât even that young i was like 7 i should have known better but i didnât?? i remember there were barbie themed squinkies & the only one i can remember is the turtle. also there were even smaller ones called zinkies & i donât think anyone but a prematurely born newborn could choke on them. those ones were absolutely microscopic & i donât know why they were made.
update: i looked it up & i think the zinkies i got were the space-themed ones they marketed to boys (which like⊠why did they think that would work????) i remember them all being the same color & absolutely boring. i donât think they were as small as i remember though which begs the question why would they make these????? you wanna make babies choke??????????
I watched the original vod when I had covid! Glad the edited version is here!
Loving the uptick is Salty Content, Derek! Will never complain that my favorite creator uploads more, killing it, king
I was one of the sleeper agents activated by squinkies
Ok, I had an entire tub full of squinkies growing up. They were little rubber pencil topper toys (though they didnât erase or anything), and they had a bunch of different brands, the ones I grew up with being their Marvel superhero line
6:45
Can confirm. I played that on my crusty DS with my bare fingers since I lost the stylus in a vent. Now I am incredibly depressed and I still play the game from time to time. On top of that, I actually own a bunch of squinkies stuff. I used to get them for my birthday and other various holidays.
Nice to see Gomo hanging around. Hope they don't cause an interdimensional tear in reality
I love the limited quality in these games, It's so charming.
i was OBSESSED with squinkies. the gumball machine thing was a real playset, they also had a castle one!!! i had both of em :D they had a bunch of disney tie-ins
i owned a squinkies gumball machine toy as a kid. i found it at good will. you could put squinkies bubbles inside and get them out like a gachapon machine. i am now depressed, autistic, have severe anxiety, have ADHD, am not cisgender, and am gay. my life has gone into a downwards spiral since my childhood and i now know why. thank you for this enlightenment, mister Saltydkdan.
Squinkies is now a slur
I did with this what I do with all new salty uploads I see, I clicked, I watched, I enjoyed, and now I'm commenting for extra engagement. I think more people should do this
As a manga reader for the Squinkies stream, Iâm surprised the edit was able to make it even marginally more comprehensible
These is crazy so Many saltudk vids back to back
