Hello everyone, a couple of quick announcements
So, the first thing I would like to get out of the way is the lack of videos these past few months. This is because I've been working off and on on my remaster video for Sonic 2 volume 1, and to be frank, this is probably going to be one of my biggest projects yet. There is nearly an hour and a half of footage to put together (see below), but yeah, not only will this feature all levels (notable ones anyway), but this will have much more accurate emulation, better video encoding, etc. this has taken quite a long time to make, but I'm nearing the end of it, I want to try and release it this month before the move, speaking of which....
That brings me to my second announcement. At the end of the month, the family and I will be moving to The States, specifically Sacramento. It's going to be a bit of a struggle moving and the weeks that follow as we try to settle, so free time will be limited, especially given the fact that I'll be needing new work when we arrive, so there's that. With that said, if you live in the area and you want to have a meetup, I'm open to it. It would be nice to make some new friends that could show me around town. I will say that it will feel nice living in my home country once again after living in Colombia for 5 years, but I'll miss this country too, I'm sure, especially the cost of living, lol.
In any case, please look forward to my latest video in the coming weeks, cheers!

ATTN: Brad will be in Las Vegas/Reno these coming couple of weeks (and possibly LA for a bit too)
I figured this would be a good place as any to announce that we will be in Nevada for the most part this coming 2 weeks. If you want to say hi, then please feel free to reach out to me, the best of which would be on my Discord Server: discord.com/invite/Ud4geTv6c6
I'll probably make a quick video post about it when we safely arrive, as I'm sure not many of you pay attention to these anyway, lol.
Anyway, see you all in The States soon!

Okay, it's apparent that I just can't keep up with the whole weekly report thing, especially when there's usually little to report from week to week, and given the lack of engagement in general, it just isn't worth it really. I did release a new video recently though which is nice.
But really, best way to find out with me directly on the progress of my videos would be to join my Discord anyway, so there's that.
I'll try to reserve this space for more important announcements, or other random bullshit.

So, couple of days late this time aaaand I'm doing this in bed, fuck it.
I still need to write the commentary and I swear it's the most difficult part to start because I honestly hate writing and after writing a bunch at my main job I'm usually burned out by the time I have the free time to do it. I'm going to try and find some time to get it done this week hopefully, then it's on to the next game.

Fashionably late, as always
Recording for the next video is DONE, but I still need to cut footage for iteration 10, then put everything together. Depending on how busy I get this week, I should have early access done in a few days. After that, I should go back to our regularly scheduled corruptions which I've been neglecting for a while now, oops. But stay tuned, new video is coming soon...

Maybe I should make these on Mondays, lol.
But really, a lot of the time, Sundays are usually taken up by spending time with the wife, so I usually never get around to them. I should probably start on them earlier in the day, I dunno.
I'm approaching the end of my next video, just have to record iteration 8, then I just need to make 2 more and I'm golden. After that, I am waaaay overdue for doing another request video. then I'd like to get some Sonic 2 remasters done.
As for PSX, finding time for a lot of things is tough, but it's something that'll itch and itch and itch until it jsut gets a best of me and I scratch it.

Another week, another day late post, lol.
But really, I was totally planning on trying to get a bunch of corrupting work done yesterday, but sometimes, plans just don't pan out that way. In any case, I did manage to get a bit of corruption work done Saturday. Up to iteration 6, I believe. It's getting there, slowly. I'm just hoping I have some more luck next week.
So, I should probably mention that previous post I made. Yeah, I'm thinking about it. the trouble with it is getting the drive and finding the time to actually do it. I mean I have an idea, and I think it would work, but I would have to run some tests on the hardware state, what changes, etc. The trick would be to hack a fast routine in instead of hijacking the already built in error functions. It's crazy, but it'd work. The only caveat would be it making the valid exceptions a bit slower, but I feel that it would probably be insignificant. This would essentially be coding a new handler instead of hacking one in as a proof of concept. This would also take into account other processor states, such as delay slots and what not. Dunno how much it would improve over my previous patch though and if it would be a waste of time. One neat thing about it though is that it's likely that it could be easily ported to the N64, but I think it would have to be on a per game basis, given how the N64 works. Again, all of it is in my head, and it's a real struggle to just sit down and start punching it out. It's an exciting idea/plan and I think that just like last time, it'll all come to a head and I'll, just dedicate a night or two to it. some fan encouragement wouldn't hurt either, especially if I get to 4.5K subs like originally planned.
In any case, I need to find a way to allocate time better, especially during work downtime. I could get oh so much done if I could manage both and just focus, ya know?

Whoops, a day late a dollar short, but hey, at least it's not a week lame AM I RIGHT GUYS?!
So, After looking at the metrics, I have decided to scrap the shorts idea. Okay, obviously it was an April Fool's joke in case you couldn't tell. The nice thing about it is that I don't have to worry about for another year, so yaaaay.
Regarding my channel productivity, it's been stagnant this past week. I swear it can be really tough to find free time, and I'm one of those types that needs time to mentally prep myself for anything, including things that I deem fun or productive. Unfortunately for work, I tend to not have enough time to.... settle in unless it's really slow.
I need to figure out some sort of system to get some extra time in to work on my projects, but it's.... tough. Here's to hoping I find some time tomorrow. I have to get to bed.

Hey guys,
I have an important announcement regarding a complete format change for this channel. So, over the past few months, I have been looking into ways to increase engagement and growth on my channel, and after looking at this totally legit and not a questionably scammy source, they say that YouTube Shorts are all the rage now! Short form videos are the future! I mean look how immensely popular TikTok(TM) is! But yeah, this not sketchy at all source says that this generation's youths have the attention spam to only watch about a minute of video at a time. Besides, I've gotten complaints over the years just how long some of my videos are, anyway. This is why I'm proud to announce that moving forward, my channel will only be publishing all my corruptions in the form of shorts! Stay tuned throughout the day as I release a collection of new SMB corruptions, one iteration at a time, cut down to just under 1 minute!
Oh, and given how the format of shorts works, I have decided to properly format my videos to 9:16 to fill out the screen of the most popular Android devices, since I was told that that's also where most kids these days consume content. Man, I'm going to get THOUSANDS more subscribers with this strategy, I can't wait!
In any case, be sure to check my channel throughout the day to see all these exciting clips! Enjoy!
