If a had a dollar for every comment talking about how you say Sega...
I would have about 20 dollars.
SEEga
SAWga
SUga
What are these pronunciations? It's SAYga.
Original Name make that about 100
Seaga :P
You say it SEG-AH / SIG-AH, or at least that's how the old opening theme from Sonic said it. Say it how you want, but don't go around saying your way's right unless you have something to reference from.
The StickStation was awesome, most people sat crosslegged on the floor because the cords weren't that long. It was made for that really.
I couldn't afford one and my mom wasn't going to pay 15 bucks for a board so I made one in wood shop in JR high.
I got a D- on the project because the shop teacher (a grumpy old bastard who was missing 3 finger tips and part of a thumb) didn't believe me when I tried to explain what it was and thought I was just being lazy by gluing two boards together.
I even wrote STICK STATION DELUXE on it with a wood burner.
D- hahahahahahahahahahha :D This comment made me laugh so hard :D
He lost 3 finger tips? You're shop teacher is Tony Iommi! It's the only logical explanation!
Roondar Murnig He wasn't that cool.
If you have lost body parts from working with wood you shouldn't teach other people woodworks...
Sixty Neiner You'd think so, but this was over 30 years ago. Back in the old days it was a sign of your dedication.
"Hey, look it! I'm drinking Rolling Rock....on a Roll n Rock!"
anyone?
Yay.
+TheGamingGuy AVGN, that was fun
ha avgn. Fuck Ya!
ha avgn. Fuck Ya!
+TheGamingGuy What a shit load of fuck
"seeeeeeeeeega"
Hahaha wtf
That's how it's pronounced, get over it.
Every sega commercial pronounces it "say-ga"
it's say-ga +DP Cameron m8
"Every sega commercial pronounces it "say-ga" wrekt
I've noticed lots of people pronouncing it "Segga", which sounds even worse.
I've heard that the rez vibrator was supposed to go under your foot so you could feel the beat there but from what I've heard the only things feeling the beat we're no where near the feet
No where near the feet? So people were using it on their forehead?
Jack Bandit The philistines!
you know what i mean i was trying to say it with out saying it XD
💅👯
Hey, that end rhymed.
Why do Aussies call Sega, "Sea-ga"?
They tell you how it's pronounced when they show their logo in games.
hell, maybe this is the reason they made the adds where they scream sega at you.
You don't know why he pronounces it wrong? Me either.
Have you ever heard of that thing called "Accent"?
Same thing irks me when people say "marry-o' instead of 'Marr-E-O" He says his own name in his games...
oren385 I'm pretty sure Australian people can pronounce the letter E in the two different ways.
The Gameboy Printer it's kinda cool for retro.
Call_Me_Mad they were a lot of fun to mess around with, but here's a fun, little known fact - if you take out the sum of the batteries required to power the monstrous printer and Gameboy and put them all in a flashlight, it will turn into a lightsaber!
E-Reader was also kind of cool, especialy for fans of Pokemon games because there was few E-Reader exclusive events. Sadly it was pretty underused outside of Japan. Both imho does not deserve to be on this list because both worked as intended and were pretty cool.
the camera is cool and pretty impressive too
cant use the kitana for ritual suicide DAMMIT!!
Correction -> DAMMITURU
shitsu! hahaha
Must commit sudoku.
Seppuku
no harakiri for you :P haha
Does anyone else remember the power glove being in "The regular Show"?
No... I remember it from The Wizard
YES
Sparkz HD They fell for it lol
Sparkz HD Yes
Yes sir
Seega...See....Gaaaaa.....? What?
HobbsyYT That was awfully rude...You comment section people are quick to get angry and swear at others.
just not too keen on people taking the piss out of accents pal . i find that "awfully rude"
HobbsyYT I'm sorry you see it that way. I meant no disrespect of course. That's just the first time I've heard anyone say it like that. Apologies.
HobbsyYT Some accents are objectively awful. For example: The Southern drawl, the Cockney accent, the Manchester accent (think Michael Bisping), and the hardcore Crocodile Dundey Australian accent. Having said all this "Seega" is ridiculous. The way to actually pronounce the name is at the beginning of every Genesis Sonic game, it's not open to interpretation.
angrycowtipper that's just like, your opinion man
You can actually make a Atari Stick Station for free!
Step 1: Cut some wood
Step 2: Make a hole that fits the controller
Step 3: ????
Step 4: PROFIT!!!!!
+Kudo “The Doomer” Redfox xD you mean, Step 4: Loss. You would actually need to pay someone to keep that thing.
@@danbenjamin2114 What would step 3 be?
The comment section be like:
30% talking about his voice.
50% criticizing his way of pronouncing Sega.
19% making quite revelant comments about the video and its main content.
1% I dunno, me? Lol
And this little bitch making a comments breakdown.
+Yolo Swaggins the Coatless Eskimo Precisely.
+ZyR!X From the top comments I see right now, I'd say 70% criticizing his way of pronouncing Sega
5% talking about his voice
10% relevant comments
and 15% other
I like his voice
his accent and slight lisp is cool
+ZyR!X
Your comment sums up the average comments on youtube!
People mostly complain about the video or the person making the video instead giving an educated comment about it's content!
About gaming in particular there are of course a lot of comments about the two "factions" of PS4 vs Xbox One users bashing the "rival" console for no apparent reason!
With that being said, I'm Italian and since the first console from Sega the pronunciation was of no consequence as the word "sega" in Italian means saw and in teens slang "farsi una sega" means jerking off so the pronunciation is really the last of the problems about that name for us. And I remember we use to make fun of people playing with a Sega for obvious reasons!
8:52 The HD-DVD drive is actually really useful for playing regular DVDs because its drivers do really awesome upscaling to 1080p.

Hello dolannnnn i didnt know you had red hair m8 but thats okay same as my sister haha m8 by the way i love your videos dawg okay? :DDDD
Если вы читаете это, то вы просто надоело троллей . Недурно независимо !
+Danger Dolan no offense but your mispronouncing Sega just thought you should know love your stuff by the way
3:05 That album artwork rocks!
the stats of the comment section
99.99% his pronounciation of sega
0.01% stuff that actually matters
MagicalRanter224 and then there's you
Tell me about those important things that matter. Are they in this fun video?
:)
I was hoping for the Kinect...disappointed.
me to actually.
The Xbox One Kinect is better than the 360. Many improvements with it ready your movements to hearing your voice. Though the 360 was tolerable.
+sonicblaster33 The Kinect was a piece of overpriced shit anyway.
It works for dance games.
Dance games, and only dance games. Truly, we are the controllers.
John Tiseo Yeah i guess so. But I never use it.
I've never heard anyone pronounce sega the way you did lol.
I've never seen pronounce spelled that way either. Point is, everyone makes grammatical errors.
Cracked Rearview Astralia advertised it only as See gah. Imagine hearing it that way for many many years and then saying it the right way. It doesn't sound right to them.
Sandwich247 True.
Pernounse! That cracked me up. Thank you :)
Dan Coleman-Goss you just REKT sam darenberg LOL
I guess they named it Jog Con because it is a controller with a jog dial
Uh, it's Sega, not Siga, dude...
its his pronunciation
what's a seega ?
SAME SEGA NOT SEEGA SEEEEEEEEEEEGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
+Conor Sturmey Yeah, and he's wrong.
Australians have always said Siga. It's how it's pronounced here.
Anybody else notice that this guy struggles with the term "HD?"
you mean that he mispronounces the letter "h"?
Mantis Toboggan It's called different accents.
colby arioto no. it's called mispronunciation.
Mantis Toboggan
PsychicMint no it isn't. because he's australian and can't say it doesn't mean that every other australian can't
when are we gonna get the xbox one laserdisk add-on!
We also need a hd-dvd addon!

I guess you're all too young to realize the Betamax beats all hands down.
Gameo Pfft, CED is the way of the future! (Or for a brand name, RCA Selectavision)
The Alpha Grip is meant to be an ergonomic keyboard replacement, specifically for those with carpal tunnel. The idea is to be able to type without having to move your hands, wrists, at all, or your fingers much. I've never used one myself but I've heard there's a huge learning curve. You basically have to re-learn how to type, and its even more difficult than a regular keyboard, since most keys are activated by using a combination of buttons to type a single letter. Trackballs aren't all that bad for accuracy though, especially if they're well made. I can't vouch for the one that's on the alpha grip though.
I think it's a great concept, since the keyboard is very oldschool technology. It originated from typewriters, before computers were even thought of. Capslock was added because there's no fonts on a typewriter so in order to make words or sentences stand out, the caps lock was necessary.. The fact that it's still included on most keyboard is a testament to the keyboard's origins.
I have a typewriter sitting around. Haven't used it in years though, and the ink strip long since wore out.
Still looks nonsensical to use even for those with carpel tunnel
*Game boy printer was awesome*
lets start a Nintendo story
one stormy morning...
penis
the end
...
Cool story bro
Cormbage thanks
Fun Fact: Trackballs (at least ones with optical tracking) are MORE precise than a regular mouse. The disadvantage is high speed movements, required for dynamic FPS games which you can't really pull off with just your fingers. I've used a trackball most of my life, I know what I'm talking about. And yes, I did switch to a regular mouse after all (also because the only trackball that makes sense to use kept on breaking [Logitech Marble Mouse]).
And not a single quack was given that day.
I use the Logitech cordless track ball for my games, although I don't get into FPS games, but each to their own I guess
I personally use a Logitech M570. Really, as long as you can reliably move the mouse a single pixel, it's impossible to get higher precision. It's not that hard to get that with a track ball. Most people who think it's less accurate than a pad either never used one, or used one once and confused their lack of practice with an issue with the device itself.
FokkerBoombass Yeah, I used a trackball years ago. It is just a matter of practice and to play FPS or other games where just as easy, as with a regular mouse ^^It was pretty different to switch from trackball to a normal mouse again xD You could say, the aim got worse xD
5:12 The Power Glove reminds me of Regular Show :P
+Matthew Nguyen Thats exactly what I was thinking of.
teleporting fat guy
thats what it was based off of -_-
+Matthew Nguyen Reminds me of BTD5.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i see what ya mean :D
To be fair, the Power Glove only failed to work for games that weren't designed for it. There were a few games in development for it (including a few adventure games that were cancelled because of the Power Glove's poor sales), but expecting it to work for Super Mario Bros. is like expecting the Kinect to work perfectly with an unaltered version of Halo 3.
I remember when stuff like the pronunciation of a name or otherwise made me mad, I was 12 or 13.
Is everyone here 13?
Are you 14 or something tough guy
no I'm 15 punk
***** it's ok, totally appropriate joke. I'll even like it.
Ery1 stepback opinions incoming
Joey Bonzo I still have that problem, and I'm years above 13. It's problematic and sometimes funny. It only annoys much less than making me mad
The NES Speedboard? It is literaly the Atari Stick Station for NES, except its made of plastic
MrZombiemod bUT IT PUTS THE SPEED AT YOUR FINGER TIPS BRUH
Komrade Kontroll GOTTA GO FAST (oh wait that's sega)
Einsare / Static Clickedy Click click... i think i broke my speed board station stick... FUQ
+MrZombiemod Not only that, but unlike the Atari controller, the NES controller wasn't designed in a way to make use of it in that fashion advantageous for the player.
+MrZombiemod It should absolutely be on there more than the stick station. It looks far less classy, and can't even be used as a doorstop.
this guy sounds so stoned lol
Love your humor and voice! Very interesting video!
Whats a seeguh
australia bruh
hansthurfjell On sonic it says sayguh like it's supposed to be said, so why can't they say it right
Nasheed El Sawaarim because "sega australia" says it that way even
A seagull is a white bird that likes chips.
hansthurfjell but sega is an american founded company
Man, I thought the Virtual Boy would've been number 1
Ben Dover That's not a peripheral.The Virtual Boy is a full console.
All right Pingüino Rodrigez O shit, my life is a lie
Ben Dover Is that a real dog?!
MrFrosty90s Hell no,it's just photoshopped doge
All Right Pingüino Rodrigez I was going to say that.
"Sii-gah"? I thought it was pronounced "seh-gah"
Say-GUH
+Creeperstorm75 dude it's seh-GAH.
I AM NO 90S KID BUT I ACT LIKE IT
+Alex Koopa
I thought he was trying to say "Seager" as in "Kyle Seager".
SEH-GUH!
and regarding the HD DVD, Sony was largely to blame for that, because they publish a lot of false advertising, including the whole thing about how Blu-rays can hold so much more data. Thing is... While it is true that the Blu-ray could hold 25 gigabytes per layer and the HD DVD could only hold 18 gigabytes per lair, by the time Sony started their massive campaign to push Blu-ray, there were already 4 layer HD DVD discs available and they were finalizing testing on 8 layer discs. At that point, you would be looking at 50 gigabytes total space vs 432GB at the time of the Blu-ray war. (And just like beta max, sadly the higher quality media format failed. I have tested multiple movies side by side on both formats. Hell, ALL my HD DVD discs have the option to use Dolby OR DTS audio.)
They were focusing on movie quality and durability. Hard to damage /scratch an HD DVD. (The stronger/thicker plastic is why they couldn't hold as much per layer - the beam would lose focus. Same laser btw, still 405nm.) They went on to be used as a successful business data backup device in place of magnetic tapes. Faster and more durable/long lasting. Still in use by a good number of larger companies that need to keep big records like medical labs backing up full-service x-rays, uncompressed CT scans, MRIs, etc. containing every bit of data from every scanner or sensor or machine used that they need permanent records of. Rewritable discs are only 2 layers though AFAIK so... Yeah. 36GB per disk.
See-gah?
Or is your nose stuffed?
Apparently nobody's taking into the account that nobody pronounces everything the same, and that accents effect pronunciation.
Iridezent Luvipan That rule only applies to general words, like tomato or crayon. Sega is a unique word that was specifically created for that company, therefore it should be pronounced the same way universally. Stay in school son.
All words can be and are pronounced in multiple ways. It depends on a person's accent for the most part. Whether it's correct or not really doesn't matter. You obviously haven't learned much yourself, considering, for example, Nissan is both pronounced "Nee-sun" and "Nee-san" by people. The Japanese say "Nee-san", the British pronounce it " Nee-sun".
Now go retake Language Arts, imbecile.
Iridezent Luvipan "Whether it's correct or not really doesn't matter." I'm inclined to disagree. By that logic, I can pronounce "Iridezent Luvipan" as "Dumb-Ass Moron" and I'd technically not be wrong. Surely you agree with this?
The Gameboy Printer paper was all adhesive backed. So for printing custom stickers, the GB Printer was actually kind of cool.
Meh. Don't care what this dude says...the gameboy printer was awesome IMHO.
The worst games ever:
1. Fnaf 1
2. Fnaf 2
3. Fnaf 3
4. Fnaf 4
5. Any other fan made fnaf games
Pretty sure the E.T. game is worse.
Sarah Nolan i mean like for now modern days
Einstein Tesla Believe me, there are far worse games than FNAF.
Sarah Nolan i think its five nights at freddys cuz i game on pc all the time ,and when i go live on twich outnof the 500 people who sees me ,non of them say nothing even tho the games sre very ehhh,but when i played five nights at freddys they all wined and said to play some other game -.-
Fox DaGamer lol
you say sega wrong....
Heard you like sao
nope
So do you.
Sao? You mean that shitty anime with the Main Character crying all the time?
Gintama best anime
I love how Americans are getting pussed off at an Australian pronouncing a Japanese gaming company wrong.
Who ever said its all Americans saying it lol
I love you :D
Do I know you?
Of course I barrowed your lawn mower last thursday
You want it back?
I fucking LOVE your narrations lmfao they are the best thing I have ever heard
I'm English, this guy definitely isn't. He's Australian. He also seems to have a severely blocked nose, and a smug, sarcastic way of talking. That's why he doesn't sound like Steve Irwin like you're expecting him to.
Americans should know that they're absolutely terrible at discerning the accents of non-American English speakers, so should probably give up trying.
"See-ga"?
Thanks for insulting an entire nation. I know what an accent is and I can discern it.
Soz mate, it's true. See so many other comments here. Maybe you're an exception.
Haha it's true though, most Americans aren't good at discerning the difference in accents. It shouldn't matter, as nobody would make the mistake of calling Sega "See-ga". It wasn't an accident, because people who don't have a clue what games are know what Sega is. The real problem here is Americans openly discriminating because of foreign pronunciation. They're all idiots. And I'm American.
I thought the accent was pretty obvious... but I'm Canadian, not American, so.
greenaum the fact hes picking on things that are mainly older than him... And back when gaming was at its infancy.......
"See-ga"? Learn how to pronounce the companies before you say them
it is his accent
I love the way he says it! It's adorable.
lol
When I was a kid, me and my friends used to call cigaretes "SEE-GA"s
chill
You don't understand Australian culture.
How to you pronounce gif? Is it the right way or the normal way.
*Danger Dolan*
From bah blah to blah blah
We count 15 of blah blah blah
*Number 15*
It feels so bizzar coming back to the videos i watched when i was a kid, it give a very strong feeling of nostalgia but a bit of saddens as well, i sometimes wish i could go back to when i was a kid and Really watched these videos, because as a kid i would just go HAHA FUNNY and go onto the next one but now i can truly enjoy these videos and i wish i could go back to when they were just coming out.
"Jog Con" actually had some context behind the name. Many professional-level VTRs had what was called a "jog wheel" which was essentially what you see on the controller - a wheel with a finger divot - to "jog" between frames for editing purposes. Namco was apparently trying to adapt that technology for game controllers.
Does he really think it's called see-guh? Is he like 9 years old? You have played sonic right?
Do they say Sega in Sonic?
***** yes
Olivia Suki Alright
***** at the start of the old games it would load the sega logo then say ''segaa''
Olivia Suki Okay, thanks
Not all of us Australians say "seega" just DD. Dont judge us pls :'c
Wtf he’s Australian? I’m from nsw I just thought he was American or sth lol
@@captainbarbossa5325 yes, he's Australian and his real name is Daniel James Johnson
Most Australians that grew up with master system and mega drive say it as sega. Myself included. I did not actually know people pronounced it a different way until I read the comments on this vid 6 years ago when I was 28
The Gameboy Printer was actually amazing for its time. Remember, it's OLD, it's not gonna have the same quality as a modern day PC printer.
The eReader was also a really good device, it was just poorly implemented and ridiculously hard to find (or at least it was in the UK).
Lastly, the REZ Trance Vibrator was later recreated in Child of Eden (or at least the PS3 version, dunno about the 360 version) by allowing the player to set either a second PS3 controller or a second PS Move controller (or PS3 controller/Move Controller if you're not using one or the other) to vibrate despite the game having no multiplayer. Now, we all know the joke that was often made about the shape of the Move controller, right?
Thank God for Danger Dolan!!
waaaait a minute.... Just one girl used the vibrator thing as a sex toy? One? With the sex toy industry a billion dollar business, I hardly doubt just one girl did this.
I was expecting to see Eye Toy pop up on this.
Exactly why i thought i would see it on here.
Eye toy was the bees knees I'll have you know.
whaaaaaaaaaaat the eyetoy was so much fun when i was younger
i liked the eyetoy...don't know why...i just have fond memories.
Arnar Er Besturson Yeah, The thing was a bitch to get working but it was super fun. It was basically Kinect 0.5
this awakens a very specific variation of nostalgia in my head
"And the fact that you couldn't even use it to commit ritual suicide when you realized you just wasted $190"

the guy talking in the video stoned? his voice is weird as hell
***** Australian
Brad Maxwell Are you fucking stupid?
+Amercian That's exactly what I was going to say
Brad Maxwell "Austria and Australia are literally the same country"...WTF!
OH Shit you can´t be serious about that..HAHAH!
how did you get to this level of stupidity?
Brad Maxwell You might want to look at this thing called a 'globe'. If you look for Austria, then Australia you will notice a few things:
1. Austria is part of a larger landmass, while Australia is its own continent.
2. They are not, in any way, at the same location geographically.
Then, if you look at country data on them you will find that both of them are not "third-world countries". You will then realize your mistake and apologize to those you have offended.
Remember when the Guitar Hero/Rock Band games were getting so popular that the game's peripherals were being priced higher than the real musical instruments? When you'd rather pay more for a video game(guitar)controller than the real thing...that's some real nerdy shit.
i really wanted a Game Boy printer when it came out sadly i never got one, can see now i didn't miss much. Great video :)
Well Dolan please don't change when you hit 1 million subscribers please!!!!
Oh, you meant SEGA, not Bob SEGER
"more comfortable up your nauowrghz than in your ear."
That keyboard replacement is amazing ! I want it !
Dolan, you forgot the Resident Evil 4 chainsaw controller, most diffcult thing to operate effectively, ever.
Boxing gloves don't soften blows, they protect your hands;
And you know this by experience or just a theory?
+Cole Scott Not true. People recognize that gloves make punches safer for your hands so hit harder than they normally would without gloves. It's this same reason why concussions are so common in American football, the pads make it so you can hit people harder without hurting yourself as much.
+JayPG *so they hit harder
+Cole Scott Um ok?
What do you mean "um ok?" Anybody who has ever been hit will tell you that gloves hurt way less than bare knuckles. Its incredibly obvious.
Actually from what I recall the jogcon was rated decently by Rerez. Also, the jog con is named after a jog wheel, it's surprising I have to tell someone who makes videos for a living that its named after a jog wheel.
I don't think he actually knows what the word 'jog' means.
Actually, the HD DVD player for the 360 comes in pretty handy. You see, when you play a game the disc is not constantly spinning. It will stop after it has loaded what it has to and start back up once it needs to load more. When you put a movie in the disc tray, it has to continually spin the disc to play the movie (Think of it like a projector and film. If you stop the projector, you stop the movie) and continues to do so once the movie is over and you are on the main menu. Over time, this can cause a lot of unnecessary wear and tear on the motor inside of your Xbox. This is easily preventable by purchasing the HD DVD player as it is designed for heavy use of the motor. If the motor in the DVD player does break, it would be much easier and cheaper to replace over your entire XBOX (Mine costed like $10-$15 and it came with some HD DVDs, but this was at a locally owned game store). Although, I think that Microsoft should have just designed the 360 with DVDs in mind. Eliminating the need to buy a DVD player. But it was 2005 when the 360 came out, so criticizing Microsoft for not thinking about DVDs when designing is like criticizing a walkie talkie for not being able to text. It wasn't designed for that, it was designed for talking. Anyway, for being a good sport and reading this long winded comment here's a long winded joke. A lizard was in the jungle smoking pot, when his best friend monkey showed up. "Hey lizard, whatcha doin'?" Monkey asked. "I'm smoking some herb. Wanna help me kill this bag?" Lizard replied. "Sure, why not?" Monkey said as they went on to smoke close to a quarter pound. "Dude, I'm so fucking thirsty. I gotta get something to drink." Lizard said while walking of to the river. "Okay man." Monkey said, not realizing that Lizard was already gone. Meanwhile, Lizard was quenching his thirst at the river. The pot had taken so much of an effect on him that he fell in the river while getting a drink. His Friend Crocodile quickly pulled him out. "Dude, what's wrong with you?" Crocodile asked. "Nothing I'm just a little light headed from all the weed me and monkey smoked. But if you think I'm fried, you should see monkey." Lizard replied. Crocodile then proceeded the walk to the log that Monkey and Lizard liked to hang out at. When he got there, he saw monkey, his eyes beet red and barely open. "Whats up, Monkey?" Crocodile asked. It took several seconds to respond, and when he did, he looked up and asked, "Dude, how much fuckin' water did you drink?!?"
Makes me remember that episode of KERORO where there was that controller with a thousand buttons on it.
SAY-ga. Not "SEE-ga."
You mean Say-GUH
He's British.
+Robert Neal He's still pronouncing it wrong.
+Robert Neal Fairly certain he is Australian not British.
+Angelus Nielson seh-gah. say-ga is just as wrong as see-ga.
Dolan I hate to criticize you, but the pronunciation of Sega is Sey-ga not see-ga. If you've ever played Sonic or Sonic 2 you'd know this due to how it says it before the game even starts. Hell even just watch the startup of it on CZcams and it says it.
yes; this !
On Australian consoles it boots up and says see-ga.
No one cares.
I was going to say the same thing its soo annoying to her it pronounced that way
+Touchfuzzy
Can't say that while you're trying to argue about pronunciation...
The Rolling Rock and Power Glove was featured in Angry Video Game Nerd's NES accessories and Power Glove reviews respectively.
I had the Namco Jogcon for racing games growing up... almost always chucked it aside for the normal controller.

What the fuck is a see-ga?
Australians pronounce it see-ga. It's because of their accent.
troodon9999 I know it isn't all but all of the Austrailans (including me) that I know pronounce it see-ga
By the way, the jog-con was Namco creating a new standard for gaming stearing wheels which included force feedback. Previously all wheels used the SCPG-1110 analog stick standard and every game used the Namco Neg-con system.
Neg-Con didn't have rumble or force feedback so the jog-con was created to give games the option of supporting a wheel with force feedback and even rumble feedback which was originally a thing for the Jog-Con but couldn't fit inside the casing. It was an option for the standard though.
There are actually three solder points to add motors on the board inside the controller as well.
So the Jog-Con was actually a very sound idea, just a bit late to the party so the standard didn't take off.
Hahahaha the thumbnail for this video is hilarious :D
He obviously never owned anything made by sega because it literally says how to say it every time you started any game made by it
in australia "sega australia" pronaunces the same way is he does
show me proof
Absolutist TV I heard it from friends living over there ok? Just pointing it out
hansthurfjell if you aren't from there and can't show me any evidence than there really isnt a point to reply to my comment.
Absolutist TV OMG, just look at australian sega commercials and stuff
#1: Wii MotionPlus, aka Wii MotionMinus
Madcatz Playstation 1 Arcade Flight Stick Controller
The MotionPlus was a great peripheral in of itself. The problem lied in lack of support for it.
I remember HD DVD, it was an early attempt at something like Bluray but when Bluray came about, you could see HD DVD start to disappear, seeing stores and rental places have less and less as the months went by. They had a great selection at first, going the whole nine yards for it but Bluray made short work of it. One type of DVD I love is UMD for PSP, entire disc based movies and interactive menus like actual DVDs for only 5 bucks, it was quite an amazing thing but they stopped all production not long after PS3 and PSP's shared life span.

It's pronounced differently in different countries.
That would be acceptable if the games didn't inform you on how to pronounce Sega.
It's always been 'seegah' in this country, always.
I'm sorry for your loss
No loss here friend, you are the one who pronounces it funny.
I'm from australia and everyone I've met says it like "sayguh"
About the trackball on the AG5: I've actually played against people who used a trackball for RTS/FPS. There i saw that it is really not necessarily about what you use, but can you use it and how you use it. If you think about it, a trackball is just an upside down ball-mouse. Once you get that, it's the same as using a mouse.
"Jogcon" is from the term "jog wheel", which is the technical name for that wheely thing on the controller.
what is it about the controller on the thumbnail that every time I look at it I think it's like 15 pounds
Yeah, that was in the video. The PC controller.
Seagul mega drive.
7's description made me die of laughter.
That's a great list. Surprised that the Jaguar 64 controller isn't there.
I can't tell if he's from Scotland or New Jersey.
Australia
Australia. Close enough, though.
New Jersey XD
Have you ever heard someone from Scotland talk?
That is nothing like any Scottish person has ever sounded, ever. Wherever he's from, it sounds like English isn't his first language.
Where's the kinnect?
i think he forgot kappa
Kinect failed but it didnt, although we all may hate it, there are still plenty of people out there buying kinect games, using it for skype and hacking it, connecting to a pc and making really cool shit :D
Peace.
Kinect v1.0 has sold 38million Units, Kinect v2 (Windows and XB1 Combined) is at 6million Units.
In terms of a Peripheral, the only /more/ successful in comparison to install base has been the Wii Fit Board; even then we're talking by a few % more successful.
This said I don't understand why he chose to pick on the HD-DVD Peripheral for the Xbox 360, as technically Microsoft supported it exclusively for HD Movies (physical) rather than it ever being intended for games. Had the demand been there from Developer, then Microsoft /would've/ considered supporting it with their Mid-Life Cycle update (the Xbox 360-S) which by that point HD-DVD was already a "dead" format. Yet here's the thing, so was BluRay outside of Gaming.
The fact is in the HD-DVD Vs. BluRay Format War, it is actually Digital Distribution and Streaming.
Sony almost bankrupt themselves trying to force the Movie industry to support BluRay and make their decision to create this format worthwhile, yet ask any Publisher (be it Game or Movie) they will all tell you that the better format to succeed would've been HD-DVD; as it had Backward Compatibility with DVD, it provided Faster Streaming, Licensing was Cheaper and more Open, it was *as* cheap as DVD to produce using the same facilities, supported both VC-1 and H.264 instead of just AAC (which is proprietary rather than open format like the previous two).
What's more there was such a big deal on HD-DVD having less capacity (30GB Vs. 50GB) compared to BluRay, but in 2007 shortly before calling it a day because Sony was buying off the Movie industry; with them forcing their Studios to exclusively use BluRay while all the other Studios cautiously supporting both formats, mean well everything was available on BluRay where-as only half the market was available on HD-DVD ... well HD-DVD Spec 1.1 was release that finalised the 51GB Triple-Layer that meant space-wise would've been on-par for still noticeable cheaper production costs which was still compatible with the release Hardware; where-as Triple or Quad Layer BluRay required new hardware.
Still that isn't the direction the market went, Digital Distribution frankly became the /core/ for Movies and slowly Games as well by this point. Running directly from a HDD also is much faster than Optical Media, especially BluRay; which PlayStation 3 did for almost every game anyway; because the format was so damn slow.
Gaming wise I'd still highly question how important BluRay /actually/ is. As it has always felt like just a bigger problem, and I'd much rather still get DVD or HD-DVD that have more rapid reading capabilities; even if they're the smaller formats of just an installer with a download-on-demand / background install streaming. Makes far more sense, mind I know this functionality was stripped from the XB1 when everyone complained about the "Always Online" functionality.
When Valve do it in 99% of their games, sure everyone is fine with it... Microsoft or EA suddenly they're Evil Corporate overlords who hate Consumers. Fucking logic of some Gamers just astounds the shit out of my sometimes.
***** both suck and were pathetic attempts to hook the casuals. Arguing over which is better is like arguing over the dumb peripherals in the video.
Though we may stupidly pledge allegiances to different corporations, lets not forget that at the end of the day no one gives a fuck. Just play whatever you like and sure, get into internet fights if that makes you feel better. Cheers
Ser D. Hawke o_0 Kinect was never intended for the casual market, just like the Wiimote from Nintendo wasn't... the problem was Developers and Reputation.
It's like the GameCube where it was unarguable the most Capable console of the 6th Generation but it got tarred with this "Well it's a Childrens Console" that ultimately hurt it despite the fact that it had a fairly large library of adult focused games many of which were exclusive.
Most "Hardcore" or "Core" games are frankly far too quick to judge and dismiss. PlayStation Move sold poorly, so was barely supported; but was a far better version of the WiiMote.
The Wii itself didn't have any games that really made use of it until fairly late in it's life-cycle, especially as the initial mentality was Motion Controls exclusively rather than Hybrid.
Kinect is the same, it didn't work exactly how Gamers expected; and here's the weirder thing, it sold massively well ... but Developers STILL refused to even put in the effort to support it. Yet you look at it's success on Windows, which no there are no games but there are ALOT of professional applications; such-as 3D Modelling (e.g. Solidworks supports it) within the Aerospace, Automotive, Music and Medical professions.
There is a Robotic Probe on the Moon that utilises Kinect V.1 .. highlights what /CAN/ be done with creativity and effort, while for most Xbox Gamers it's just an expansive Webcam with built-in Mic for Skype.
You can say it is silly to argue over these things all you like, but this is the problem... not about waving our e-peens about what product was best, but really question why the fuck these were not better supported by Developers.
I mean FFS the Kinect has a Larger Install Base than the N64, Saturn, Dreamcast, GameCube, Xbox Original... yet for some reason most Developers won't touch it because "The Market isn't Large Enough"; I mean what fucked up thinking it that?!
I can think of a use for the AG5. Microsoft Flight Simulator! :) And if the track ball stays where you put it, it could probably be used for trim!
You should have mentioned that NAMCO also released the NEGCON, which contrary to the jogcon is one of the best controlers for racing games ever released...
i just want to say this, the hd-dvd format (and laser disc as someone below pointed out) has some of the highest quality movie versions on them. for laserdisc many dvd versions were poor conversions of the laserdisc, adding on laserdisc has better sound than dvd, outside of flipping the disc, i would rather have a laserdisc than a dvd just for quality sake.
but back to hd dvd, look at the comparison between the thing blu ray and the thing hd dvd... one of my favorite movies that got butchered on bluray has a perfect version on hd dvd... granted there is less of this for this format than there is in support of laserdisc, but its still a sticking point.
I bought a Laserdisc player earlier today, and can honestly say it looks better on my television than DVDs do. It only lost the optical war because of the cost, size, and practicality concerns.
Same goes for Betamax. Better quality, but more expensive and clunkier than VHS.
Chris Barbati beta lost to porn, vhs over time got lighter and lighter cutting out material and dropping the overall quality
alidan Regardless of the content, the Beta (as a physical medium) was superior.
Of course, if content was made available only on VHS, then that would obviously persuade consumers to buy VHS. Which is part of how JVC won.
Why do you say the letter "H" like "hache"? I can get it if you say it because of an accent but, too me i don't hear an accent.
How the hell do you not hear his Australian accent?
M Vic Oh. Yeah, forgot about those. /:
M Vic how about hearing defect?
Only the English and americans say "H" like "ache" . Most places actually pronounce it " pH" .
cian grace Fache?
The Namco JogCon was a mashup of Jog from jog wheel (used in many VTRs and VCRs for frame-by-frame playback forward and backward) and Con from controller.
Can I still watch it. it's only one year later
I think number 14 wad so you can place the slab of wood on your lap...
*was
No?!?!!?.?. Really? Have you told Mensa about this, you are the genius of our generation!!! You have truly solved the mystery! Wow, thanks!!!
Trubbyboyy lol someone acting sarcastic to someone who was also being sarcastic
TheCobbleBros I think I need to get some windex to wipe off some of this sarcasm off of my screen. It might give my computer a virus... ehh? ... EHH?? :D
4:58 does that say knock bitch out??? Nintendo what do you have in your defense

That ad was targeted for older audiences... I hope.
I'm trying to find evidence of that ad but I'm not sure it's real.
At the time Namco released Jogcon, the force-feedback controller, there are no other competitive products anywhere in the PlayStation market, I think Microsoft has released sidewinder force feedback racing wheel in '97 but the price is sky high.
So you just can't simply judge this one using present standards.
For a bonus point, the fishing rod controller for Sea-gah bass fishing on Dreamcast.
Worked better as a racing controller than a fishing rod!
(Not kidding, if you have one, try it out.)
