Schedule changes for Twilight Princess

Hi All,

The first episode of Twilight Princess will drop on Wednesday, and so episodes will go up on that day as well as Saturday every week. Because of this, we've also swapped the first two days of the week so that Mario Odyssey is the first series, then Borderlands 3 the second, and Twilight Princess the third. Then we do that again for six days per week of content, with each series getting two episodes per week.

We didn't want to change the schedule too much, but also didn't want to put any current series on a haitus to accommodate for TP. When I think about it, Borderlands 2 is on a haitus just because we have more episodes of Borderlands 3 to post. When that runs out, we're gonna get back to Borderlands 2 so that the story happens chronologically for me. But also we'll get more Erren so that will be nice.

Some of you might be wondering if we're concerned about the Federal Trade Commission of the United States and the Childrens Online Privacy Protection Act in regards to pressing issues with YouTube and the settlement that they've agreed to. We are, but we're not doing anything too big until we're sure of whether we should make any changes.

But anyway, Twilight Princess was a good lot of fun and it will be a great series. Look forward to that!

Bye All!

Twilight Princess is getting closer

Hi All,

Ihasnotomato and I (Mabeanie) recorded a conversation for an upcoming series on one of my channels last night, but we also organised the day that we will record The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD for the Wii U released in 2016.

This has been five years in the making as first of all we had to recover from the loss of what we thought was a great recording session in late 2014. For those who don't know, we originally recorded Twilight Princess for the Gamecube, but our audio recording for our voices failed and so we lost that crucial bit that makes our videos our own. We were very upset, but we wanted to eventually come back to it. I think that we will discuss the original recording session at the start of this Twilight Princess HD one. Then we can move on, talk about the game, and have a good time. Both of us are quite fond of the game.

Anyway, that's your update. As usual, we will continue to post Borderlands 3 and Mario Odyssey three times a week, but when Twilight Princess starts you can be sure that it will be in there.

Bye All!

Back On The Road

Hi All,

After the rough year that 2019 has been for us, but certainly not the toughest year, we are now in a position to be posting lots of great videos on a regular basis.

My computer issues are over, but my days of spare time are irregular. Nevertheless, we have Stephanie to do the editing and all we have to do is record Mario Odyssey.

So look forward to some more Mario Odyssey content by the end of next week, and we'll be pumping out heaps of stuff. We'll also be recording The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess later this month as planned. The year has just flown by.

Anyway, that's everything.

Bye All!

We can do Borderlands 3, but.

Hi All,

Today Ihasnotomato text messaged me to organise our Borderlands 3 series, which has snuck up on me a bit. I won't be able to play the game on my own computer, so we'll be doing a single-player campaign on Tomato's computer at least. We may also have Erren involved, as he has expressed interest. If anything, at varying times we will have Tomato's character and then myself and/or Erren.

We haven't discussed when exactly we will be releasing episodes of our series, but we will be recording on the 14th of September (day after release). I think that Tomato would push himself to post the episodes as soon as he can, and possibly prioritise it over his own projects. He will also likely post a quick video on his main channel to get people to come and watch our series.

Nothing else has progressed much. My computer is still taking a long time. To elaborate a bit more on the actual issue, the computer can do low-power things like post things online, but sometimes it gets sluggish when doing PowerPoint presentations, Photoshopping, switching DVDs, and mid-power things like that. I have not bothered trying to play a game or edit a video. That sort of stuff takes more power.

Anyway, that's the update.

Bye All!

Apparently not

Hi All,

We haven't been uploading videos for the last few weeks because of the following things:

1. My computer issues mean that I can't do much work for SAIM.
2. Stephanie is on holiday.
3. Ihasnotomato has his own stuff to do, did a lot of the work for a while but got tired of it, and now we're just waiting for my computer problems to end.

2019 began as a year that we had planned out a little bit. We finished Mario Sunshine, did Metroid Fusion, have been doing Borderlands 2 for most of the year, and now it looks like we won't be able to do a Borderlands 3 series within the first week of the release date, but hopefully my computer issues will be over before November, when we will started recording and posting episodes of our Twilight Princess series.

Sorry!

Back on Track

Hi All!

Sorry about the last month of trouble, but we're back uploading videos.

Stephanie now has the footage and Ihasnotomato is uploading them. I can't do much with my computer troubles, but they came over and we sorted through things to work out how to get videos going again.

There's nothing else to report on apart from that.

See Ya!

Setbacks

Hi All,

So you might have noticed that we haven't posted any videos in a week.

The problem is that Ihasnotomato is at a place with bad upload speed (Stephanie refuses to travel to the place) and my computer has been having trouble and so I am trying to correct that issue.

We have Mario Odyssey and Borderlands 2 episodes recorded, but neither of us are in a position to upload them.

We hope to get back into it soon.

Bye All!

The road to November

Hi All,

It has been a good while since I last posted, but SAIM has been going well. Both Ihasnotomato and I are busy/lazy people and weren't uploading for a week recently. Nevertheless, we had a recording session last Friday and did more Metroid Fusion (finished it!) and Borderlands 2 (about 2/3rds through it now).

Ihasnotomato has been watching long breakdowns of the gradual decline of Game Grumps, because everybody needs something to make them sadder. I don't know, I guess he relates to it because he has tuned out of them since 2017 or something. Nevertheless, he informed me that we need to get our videos to be a good quality because like Game Grumps, not every one of our videos are good, and so we should try to make it so that every time anybody tunes into our channel, they get some good content. So we've decided to just go with the flow for our videos, which means that our editor Stephanie has to make a cut whenever we stop talking or struggle to get through a part of the game.

I've called this blog post "The road to November" because that month we will start posting episodes of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. We have also started taking that into consideration when we decide what game to do next for the Console Gaming Series. I realise now that we should determine the exact date that we want to start posting episodes of the series so that we can organise everything around it. At the moment, all we know is that we want to play a game that will only take a few months to finish in case it overlaps with Twilight Princess.

The 25th of November 2014 was when Twilight Princess was recorded originally, and five years later we are aiming for Tuesday the 26th of November 2019 to be the date that the first episode is posted.

Now that's all cleared up, that's my post done. See you in six years.

Bye All!
