Welcome to another edition of Punching Weight Greatest Hits! Today, we're taking a look at some of the wildest peripherals and controllers that Nintendo has to offer.
In this episode, we'll be discussing the Nintendo DS guitar hero game, Resident Evil chainsaw, Kirby tilt n tumble gamecube, and more. Be sure to check it out to see what ridiculous peripheral or controller we've got our hands on this time!
#stopskeletons #gba #gamecube - Hry
We've been making Punching Weights for six goddamn years, so I decided to put together a mega-video of all the times we covered Nintendo peripheral doodads. I hope it'll help you study, sleep, or relive the weird, ambitious and unnecessary!
i got your back derek, they're not showing up because you don't have a O:OO:OO timestamp before them in the description
THANK YOU!!
@@StopSkeletonsFromFighting Derek, is this the longest video of your channel?
THIS IS DOPE AF!
Hey Uncle Derek, did you know that there is a thing you can use that N64 Mouse for that you didn´t cover already? There is a ScummVM port to N64 that allows you to play a few PC Point & Click Adventures on real N64 Hardware via a Everdrive and it supports the N64 Mouse. If that isn´t a dumb, unnecessary way of playing such games, I don´t know what is.
Weird ambitious and unnecesary
Just like a 4h long video compilation of all nintendo stupid ideas
I love how meta it is.
If uncle Derek thinks I am going to watch the entirety of this video then he is absolutely right
I don’t think I will, but I’ll at least like and comment on it, in order to boost their interactions.
Lol same
Pfft rookie, if you REALLY wanna impress uncle Derek, you have to watch the whole thing on a DSi
I'm listening to my radio, DERRICK
You're right
42:21 “but to be fair the e-Reader is a way dumber method, so that’s a point in my book”
Derek just perfectly described this channel in a single sentence. I love it
I love that you turned the HVGN into a career for yourself, and made your channel your own, rather than a spinoff of another fellow on YT lol. One of my favorite channels.
He’s doing a whole lot better these days too then that other guy on yt lol
Who are you talking about?
@@jacobhdz127 This channel originally started as the "Happy Video Game Nerd" and even had a parody version of the AVGN intro as a theme song. The concept was to do a similar style as AVGN except about games he liked.
@@revalution1965 who's the other guy
@@revalution1965 RIP James
Yo, Derek, I can't tell you how inspirational your long-form deep-dive videos into the obscurity of video gaming have been over the years! I am still plugging away at my Waterworld focused CZcams channel and I just got to 1000 subs! Thank you so much for your motivation, it's keeps me going too!
I assumed this was a joke, but no... you really are a channel that only has Waterworld videos, and over two years worth too! That's wild, man, good luck with your passion project lol
@@ValkyrieTiara Thanks Tiara! Yeah, I'm just over here digging my own little rabbit hole!
So, I have no love of the movie Waterworld, but I have subbed to your channel regardless of my opinion of the movie.
I just love the dedication, it's simply amazing to me. Keep it up dude, I hope you get big.
@@TheAtoll That blows my mind there's a channel dedicated to Water world! I love that movie even though it's usually hated on, so I'll subscribe and check it out. I just don't get how you can keep making content, because it's not like they'll make another movie I think, or even sequel.
Also I can't help but ask if you like The Postman? I honestly like it even more than Water world
Ah the movie, I was thinking of SeaWorld and frowning at the idea of some sort of super supporter of sad and stressed out animals totally unfit for a life in captivity as entertainment.
But, hopefully you're aware that your niche is alot more limited than the subject of gaming.
Which might sound like a negative thing at first but yeah hang on, I think it's inevitable to be disappointed if you're expecting similar numbers and never getting there but if you look at it realistically I would probably guess that 1000 subs are already pretty darn successful considering it's such a limited topic.
Like among other waterworld channels you're probably among the biggest, which I would consider a good thing.
So if that's your thing you might already have succeeded, unless there indeed are much bigger waterworld channels to fairly compare with.
And if you ever want to expand the scope of the channel I think it's likely to grow much faster than when starting out because with 1000 subs the ball is in motion so your videos might actually show up to people who then have the choice to decide if they like it.
So I think the hardest bump of being close to invisible is already conquered.
For one brief moment I thought you had 3.5 hours worth of something to say about a Nintendo peripheral.
Paging Tim Rogers.

@@DragonSlicer it isn't lazy. Some people want a marathon episode. Just because it isn't an upload for you doesn't mean it's "lazy." Also with the way CZcams is nowadays creators have to do shit they may otherwise not want to do for clicks because that's what gets them money. At the end of the day every channel is a business and businesses are about making money. Don't like it? Don't click. It's really that easy. No reason to be a jackass.
@@DragonSlicer it's really not lazy. It's convenient. And again, look at any other channel that does a compilation video. it always gets more views than the highest viewed video that's part of that compilation. You really don't have to like it. But there's also no point complaining about it. You want to do a playlist? It's there. Go right ahead. Some people would rather have one single video. It's preference. I'm not even saying I love it or hate it. I'm just saying it pleases the youtube gods and will generate more ad revenue for the channel to bring us more content.
Wouldn't be even be surprised.
Cowards are too afraid to upload 4 hour videos, but I truly hate watching anything under hours. Derek, you’re a hero.
Lately I tend to avoid content that is less than one hour long.
I can stand 30 minute videos once in a while, but 1-11 hour videos is where its at.

The thing I love about Uncle Derek and Producer Grace's videos is the comfy vibes they all give off. Even though it's obvious that a lot of in-depth research goes into them, they still feel like one of your friends telling you about this neat thing they're interested in.
Not gonna lie, this is a really cool way to bring more attention to older content. Really convenient to do a deep dive into the content.
Yeah I love these conpiled together like this.
is this an invitation to stay up till 4 am while also rewatching some ssff classics?
Lol, dude, I just realised something hilarious. Lately I have started watching the recent videos on this channel, because I just got a random urge to play and research retro consoles. Then later I looked up what NES games I still have on my PC from the last time I played an emulator years ago and I noticed "Metal Storm". I couldn't remember where I knew the game from, but after a while figured out that it must have been from this bizarro alternative version of AVGN that I watched ages ago, the "Happy Video Game Nerd". I was wondering what that guy must be doing nowadays and then suddenly realised that these are the same channels! Congrats on keeping up the youtube game through all these years.
I'm loving this.
I can't help but expect something like a How The West Was Worse collection.
Which WILL happen, right?
So impressive that you managed all this in 1 take! The set and costume changes must've been rehearsed to perfection!
This is great. I tend to sleep on long youtube compilation videos or playlists of creators I enjoy.
Also, nice touch crediting the editors for each video in the time codes.(RIP Daisy).
wait, who's daisy? I'm new here.
@@thelaxsoviet5922 She was a freelance editor who helped edit for Derek and a few other CZcamsrs. She passed away back in 2021.
Whenever I have a crap day, Uncle Derek comes clutch with banger videos. Thanks Uncle Derek, for keeping me sane during these trying times. ❤️
Coolest DS slot peripheral I owned is a purpleish GBA cart that has a 3.55mm headphone jack and a couple of buttons and it gets power from the DS. What it was is a FM radio, so you can listen to the radio while playing a ds game on the go.
Yes I have this! And would link my old MP3 player to it via an fm tuner hahaha good times
I just found this video and I can't tell you how happy I am to have my young new uncle walk me back through every peripheral I forgot I ever owned.
I remember having a GBA to GC Link Cable. I loaned it to a friend and she'd let me play Pokemon Colosseum. In the end she asked if she could keep the cable and I could keep Colosseum. She beat it multiple times already, so I felt it was a fair trade.
I loved putting Johto Pokémon into Ruby with Colosseum.
Bet she’s kicking herself for that now that the game is about $150 and the cable is about $3 lmao
That sounds like the best trade ever, trading a game for a cable. Lol
3:44 Loving the random use of Tomba! theme music here. I feel like this game hasn't gotten enough recognition over the years!
Well they’re finally about to re-release it now!
I’m so stoked!
Has anyone else watched this video several times now? I’m def over 5 times now. It’s just something easy to throw on in the background and listen to. Uncle Derek’s voice (and Producer Grace every so often), is so very comforting and relaxing.
Man, the CZcams algorithm was really lacking behind with this one and your channel.
Instantly subscribed, like, shared & rewinded.
Crazy good channel and content.
In the ever so improving CZcams sphere it’s easy to forget how good and well researched and presented these videos are and how big publishing firms and TV channels just can’t compete with this, no matter how hard they try. No hate, just pure love for this one ☝🏻 🎉
I purchased the steam deck two months ago and play a lot of retro 64bit era Games on it and ever since, I unintentionally stumble down the heartwarming and stunning CZcams retro 64 bit novelty gear & tech explanation rabbit hole. It’s just great! Thanks for this trip! ❤
Me: Damn the SSFF back catalog is so big, I don't remember which videos I've seen and which I haven't!
Uncle Dererk: FOUR HOUR CLIP SHOW
Me: YES
Rewatching videos on your channel, I found a comment I'd left on a video 3 years ago about how your videos helped me through a rough time.
I'm a lot better off now, but your videos still make me happy and have encouraged me to start collecting games and tech as well.
Thanks again, Uncle Derek!
People can argue your show is weird or ambitious, but nobody can say it's unnecessary
this is such a sweet comment! Im glad someone else feels similarly to me about this channel
NO WAY I FOUND T-51 POWER ARMOR FROM FALLOUT 2 AT 4:38 AM LETS GOOOOO
54:59 I was at a Gaming Con (can't remember the name) and some wonderful person had set up 5 Gamecubes to play LoZ:4SA. 1 had the actual game disk in it, and the other 4 had Gameboy Players all with a copy of the game and hooked up to the 1st Gamecube via link cables. I can imagine the cables and TV nightmare to set it all up for 1 game, but man it was fun. I ended up playing through the whole game with some random strangers. Good times.
They better have put the GC disc TV in the centre with 2 GBA screens on either side…. ergonomically.
DK64 was actually made with the expansion pack in mind from an early point in development according to the devs, the rumors about the bug come from someone who wasn’t even part of the team for the project, at least according to what appears to be the most accurate information I’ve found in the past.
OH MY GOD! MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED! Goodbye snowy, icy outside and frens! Uncle Derek just released 4 HOURS OF VIDEO!!!
9:29 - Respect for the Jumping Flash Stage 1-2 music. Also, these are great videos. A lot of these I didn't even know existed. Thanks for digging them up and showing the world, SSFF!
As a Canadian, I really appreciate "C to shining C". Also, they totally should've ported MYST to the DS and used that keyboard for the organ puzzle.
Thanks uncle Derek just watched the whole 4hrs even though I’ve seen all of them as single episodes.
Was a great long video keep it up.
I was finally directed to this video. Such an amazing bit of history. I saw the section on Pacman Vs. I never got to play it before it arrived on the Nintendo Switch. I had a lot of fun with it around 3 years ago, at a Christmas Party with cousins of mine. We used the main switch for the TV and the Ghosts, and I also had a Switch Lite for the person who played Pac-man. It worked perfectly, and yeah, a great party game. At the time, it was played between sessions of Mario Kart 8 DX and Smash Ultimate. I was staying Pacman Themed, when I could, so I also played Pacman in Smash then.
I'm also one of the lucky ones to get Phantasy Star Online Episode 1 and 2 Plus, and managed to actually snag it for the original Retail price when I found it. Take note, I was looking for it for years until I found the opportune seller to get my copy. Near perfect condition, the only wear and tear is that the manual isn't completely crisp, so it's been used a little bit. But yeah, all the offline GBA stuff is with it, and I have it so it can fully run online On the Wii (with Backwards compatibility) and using the WiFI connection. Awesome!!! Basically, it's the cheapest and most effective way to play the best console version of PSO with full broadband WiFI online support and in Progressive Scan.
I watched all of these, but I love Uncle Derek’s voice and personality so much that I have to watch them again
Long time sub here, this video showed up in my autoplay list like 11x now. I've watched this video EVERYTIME IT SHOWS UP. I never get enough of SSFF.
This was great background noise as I did things around the house and office and it allowed me to fill in some gaps I missed in your content, would love to see more of these mashups!
Ah... the sounds of the E-reader bring back so many memories! I miss that. SMA4SMB3 was such a missed opportunity. I spent so long to get everything I could for that game, and finished it all. I will say the item cards pretty much made it way too easy.
have you played the original mario 3? it's easy to overflow your lives and items with or without the e=reader item cards.
I always look for the longest video I can find when I'm trying to fall asleep. This is it.
2:51:40 I was told that what you were seeing was a early version of dynamic resolution scaling that capcom used to compress the textures on the fly in order to maintain a specific amount of used / free vram. Really cool.
Thank you for this Uncle Derek, you should make a playlist/more long compilations. I love sleeping to these kinds of videos!
Brilliant, Daddy Derek! I love it! I'm gonna end up marathoning these just like I do the seasons of AVGN.
Watched this bit by bit over the course of a week. You really make great content, thank you
I love the mix of Jumping Flash and Tomba music. Didn't expect to get nostalgic like that
Finally a good video I can watch right before bedtime!
I just want to say I appreciate you for not taking yourself too seriously and still being able to provide super obscure information that's entertaining at the same time, good stuff man.
Playing Zelda Four Swords with 4 players is super fun. It is a little annoying to set up, but when you already have all the hardware needed to pull it off, it's definitely worth it.
This is freaking awesome. Right up my alley. I love this channel!
I have watched these videos so many times I'm really glad you made this. I can recite some of them and it's really great to listen and laugh to when I'm working in the house. Your videos always make me smile
Now this is a video I'll be using for bg work noise. Thanks a bunch for making it Uncle Derek! 🙏
As I am getting ready to start the Gathering and Crafting grind in Final Fantasy XIV, this is the kind of video I crave. Let's go.
Weird, from my perspective, that you think the e-reader was forgotten! It and its inattainability was and still is warping my world slightly. Oh well. :)
(i live in europe. i still have plenty of cards. no reader was sold here)
The gba GameCube link cable was the greatest thing of all time the amount of joy I got experimenting with different games to see if something happened, I felt like an archeologist lmao
I use CZcams as background noise to help me sleep and waking up to the part on link cable was a pleasant experience.
Thank you for doing this retrospective it is awesome and I love it and shows me all of the items I could never afford to buy
I love hearing Derek say lines like "Oh you thought that was dumb :D, well we are doing something even more dumb!! :D" He leaves no stone unturned with the level of research, testing and depth that it is both informative and hilarious! Sooooooo fun to watch!!! :D
The e-reader is just the irl version of that among us task
........LOL
Love these long compilations! Need more of them!
An interview with one of the DK64 devs reveals that the game *was* made as a tech demo for the Expansion Pak! While both the "DK64 required the Expansion Pak" part and the "DK64 had a game-breaking bug noticed late in development" part are both true, the idea that the two facts were in any way related to one another was a mass-self-gaslight on our collective part!
I loooove these long ass videos. But I can’t watch it in one sitting, been watching this for 2 days now lol.
Made it through the whole vid love y’all great way to pass time at work
Oh NOW we're talking. I need that long form, high octane Uncle D
I love how nintendo its so advanced in innovation most of them suck untill they become industry standard like rumble, nfc, wireless, and others i dont remember
Others "improve" (copy) Nintendo innovative products.
Just finished listening to the whole thing while at work! :)
Well I know what I'm falling asleep to tonight. Thanks Uncle Derek!
Sitting here minding my own business, passively enjoying to the video when 11:05 hits and suddenly a wild Dolphin Park theme appears and I get curb stomped by a massive wave of nostalgia. Wave Race doesn't get enough love imo.
Really great video. Loved re-visiting the chainsaw controllers. I always wanted one so bad lol
In the e-reader video you mention Hamtaro, I used to watch that show religiously when I was 12. You made me remember something from my childhood that I loved but had since forgotten, and it probably would have stayed forgotten if not for you. Thank you. Now I got what I remember of the song stuck in my head and I'm a little frustrated by that.
29:00
I've been working on a camera accessory video, and I can't believe I almost missed Face Training. Thanks, Uncle Derek!
great stuff as always!
29:53 This is just one tongue away from being Ahegao Training.
Ooh I always love leaving these mega compilations on whilst working or procrastinating. Thanks for your hard work Derek and Grace! :)
I didnt realise how unique the PS2 RE chainsaw controller is, especially with the motion control-activated R1 press. Now i can boost like crazy on burnout 3, pop the glock in san andreas, punch some gabagool in the ps2 sopranos game, etc etc
I'M JUST BOUGHT AN N64 WHEN THIS VID DROPED!!!!!!!😃
I resisted watching any of your videos because I hated the channel names, but you have so many topics I'm interested in so I've started watching your videos. You got me.
I can't praise _Ring Fit_ enough. At no point does it shame the player or speak inconsiderately.
The first time I picked it up, I filled in a questionnaire (so it could guess what my level of endurance was). It *horrifically overestimated* how capable I was (after 15 minutes, my BPM was, like, 178, and I was puking up my fruit cordial). It took me about four days to recover, and when I turned it on again, the first thing it said was to the effect of "Yo, you looked like you were having trouble back there, and it took you a while to come back. But you _did_ come back, and that's awesome! How about we lower your difficulty?"
Thanks, _Ring Fit._ I'm sorry I'm too chufty for you, but we just met, and I appreciate the consideration you're willing to put in.
Get _Ring Fit._ It's really fun, and I've had so much more fun with it than the _Wii Fit_ series ever gave me. I'm *still* fat and I haven't picked up my Ring Con in months, but that's because my head is more broken than my body, and the early sunset of Winter screws me up hard.
Oh. It also incentivises working in your spare time. The Ring Con can detect when you're just fiddling with it without the game. If you do reps with it while, like, watching the TV or something, it gives you coins that you can either give to yourself, or give to a friend as a form of encouragement.
And on that note, the controller feels really good to use. It feels really sturdy. You're _not_ going to tear it apart, or smash your fingers together. This is one of the times where I would specifically discourage buying third-party shit (if unofficial Ring Cons exist).
"Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie" is such a great game. It deserves way more attention than it recieves.
I believe the Episode 1 Racer dual controller cheat had player 1 use slots 1 & 3 so that a second player could use slots 2 & 4 - this way the basic game inputs for multiplayer wouldn't need to be changed on the basis of of a single cheat code.
Yay! Now I can put u guys on in the background while I do housework ❤️
You know what I love about Derek and Grace? You can never predict the subject of the next video. The king and queen of random Niche!
Also, SH2 historical society is my favourite episode. Another horror game deep dive follow up one day? 😀👌
we those when we can but we probably won't make one for a bit. Did you see the one we did on RE8's beneviento section?
@@StopSkeletonsFromFighting oh F*** I forgot about that one. That was a good one. I'll consider that the follow up 😄.
Love your content, can't wait to see what random stuff you'll do next 👌👍
Your videos are saving me at work. Pouring concrete in 100 degree weather with high humidity. Needed something to take my head somewhere else. Thanks
Dude, thumbs up just for making 4 hours of actually good content, hats off bud. 👌
Uncle Derek coming at us with compilations, perfect for background music on cleaning day
58:30
In Metroid Fusion Samus suit goes through a total of 4 changes. The yellow/orange is her final "Omega Suit" she gets in the climatic battle with the Omega Metroid. The
yellow/blue is one of her beginning suits.
I remember when the e-reader first came out and I was in love with it. The concept of collecting special pokemon cards and swiping them for games seemed like so much fun for me as a child. It was like having your own pokedex or digivice(in particular season 3's).
I really wish it had been more popular but I feel like the concept is similar to gatcha games. You have to pay/collect more and more to get more short bits of content. In the west that can come off as especially annoying. I kinda wonder if I have more of a gambler's mentality because I enjoy that aspect so much... lmao
Now this is what I sub for
Merry Christmas Derek and have a happy new year.
59:32 Sick foreshadowing, Dereck.
I've watched this video in it's entirety TWICE .......and if you think I'll watch another one of these 4+hr long videos multiple times...you'd be correct!!!
youtube: hey kid you wanna watch a compilation of videos you've already seen that's about as long as two and a half movies
me: do you even have to ask
4 hours of Derek and Grace... Christmas came early. ^_^
The jumper pack /terminator pack is because the N64 used a ram technology called 'rambus' which at the time before ddr came out, was faster that sdr. One of the drawbacks of this was that rambus unlike other computer ram technologies needed 'all' slots to either have ram, or a blank 'terminator module' that kept the electrical ring intact. the terminator pack is simply used to keep the electronic signal ring intact for the rambus ram slot. This also drove up the cost of the n64 compared to the other consoles and contributed to the decline of nintendo.
Just like intel, they were caught by rambus's hype and were bit by it.
Sick video dude
This video is actually 6:54 *SHORT* of 4 hours.
FALSE ADVERTISING!!
JK, keep up the great work, Love you guys
There was a podracing arcade machine at the Pinball History Museum in Vegas, it used paddles like an actual pod. So that explains how they did that :D
This
Is
AWESOME!!!!!!
Awesome
Video watched it all - have not seen an episode of your stuff since you were called happy video game nerd had no idea you had changed the name of your channel - now I Have years of your video to watch - uncle derek I have missed you all these years 😁
You really took it back with those e Reader cards I forgot about those things honestly.
I've started watching this video to fall asleep to, but it's kept me up for too long instead.
Well this might just be the greatest way to find out about a new channel!
Virtual Boy was a thing...I think it was just a series of flashing red lights...that might have been tennis or something. It ended up being $29.99 at Toys R Us.
A luminous winter in Seattle lol. It's raining on Christmas. Just like it has for every Christmas I remember around here.
Playing this on repeat indefinitely. Pump that algorithm for Uncle D
This made my Friday!
