I mean...yeah, of course it wasn’t going to succeed? This revival felt like such a clear example of nostalgia pandering from some executives without really understanding why G4 likely succeeded in the first place. It existed before Youtube, streaming culture, and a lot of our current game coverage infrastructure…

Dang, poor Jirard though. He literally got his college dream job and not too long afterward it all went up in smoke a year later, that really sucks.

I’m not surprised.  The media landscape is very different these days.  Who’s gonna watch G4 when there’s a million different YouTube channels and podcasts and all sorts of other things serving you nerd content on demand?

Should have just been a youtube gig with some flair and I think it would have had a solid chance at walking.  If I need cable to watch stuff it just became too much effort to put in.  Same reason I dont keep up with AEW.

YouTube is likely getting flooded by all the guys who were all “get woke go broke” screaming “I told you so” and doing victory laps and laying all the blame squarely at Frosk for her rant. She made some great points, and GamerGaters and incels cried and cried and cried because they were called out. And sure, other…

“Go woke, go broke” is just hilarious copium from the despairing assholes who can’t stand all their favourite bigots being cancelled and so have to relish the occasion when anything that could be considered even remotely liberal fails.

G4TV was for a different era. They revival didn’t show actual growth for today’s era. I’m glad didn’t continue on as is. 

some will say they were cancelled because they “Got Woke” which is moron code for “has women in the show”, and a good sign anyone speaking this way can be safely ignored.  

The reality is G4 was a success in the past because it was one of the few shows like it at the time. Now, you can get G4 content on basically any…

Right wing grifters will celebrate and take credit for it. Because of course.

Covering both bases:

Wario is also a capitalist because he is involved in several get rich quick schemes.
Maybe that’s why he is such a good character, he shows it’s not all black and white, you can smell of garlic and still save the world by accident while persueing wealth in order to buy steaks for yourself.

That feel when a game site brings more political insight than most other news sites covering politics in general.

Can’t tell if you’re willfully ignorant or you just don’t read the news. Like, ever.

For some reason I was really expecting Luigi to flip the bird at the end of this GIF.

I think you mean “alt-WAAAAAH”.
