For a single piece sure.

I presume the idea here is that you have access to their full library. Personally, I fail to see why I would change my wallpaper enough to warrant even a free app to change it, let alone 50 bucks.

Some people like instant, some people like fancy, single-origin, anointed with holy water, picked bean by bean, winner of 50 awards you've never heard of coffee and other people like crap coffee.

No one really doubts that coffee pods aren't coffee, they hate pods because they're literal garbage for the environment.

this looks like a shittier, less comfortable version of those handheld trackballs from the early 2000s.

That and Wind Waker HD are the two heavy hitters that are still locked to the platform, there's a handful of others like Twilight Princess HD, Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, Yoshi's Wooly World, Star Fox Zero, though porting some of those might not be possible without completely altering the gameplay.

It would've been nice if they kept Splatoon 1 alive somehow, but there's zero chance of that when they already have two sequel games on switch.

That just sounds like that thing where entering a place of comfort makes the body relax, which could easily trigger said urge, the quirk here is that this lady had it pinpointed to bookstores.

This is the return of the space cowboy?

I remember it being convenient for getting screenshots off it to pc quickly, but I don't know if there's a better method of doing so. I rarely, if ever, use the share function to begin with.

How exactly? I lost my pro controller before I ever got to experience anything wrong with it.

Probably leftover from the old app, it's really unfortunate that it doesn't work because half the garbage I click on here I want nothing to do with my watch history on my account. If I'm not on top of it, it'll completely destroy my already terrible recommendations.

To be brutally honest with you, the left one has a terrible thumbnail and an even worse title if the goal was to gauge interest and get people to check the video.

The right one has a thumbnail that says the name of the game and "First Look" which tells you everything you need to know about what you're going to watch.

The first look at a new game called ____.

Meanwhile "GREY ZONE GREY ZONE GREY ZONE," while flashy, doesn't convey anything to someone who hasn't already heard of the game. The actual image used is also better on the right, they're both reloading, but the right one at least has something going on with the two teammates and not just a non-descript background, right one is even framed better with the mountain and field being clearly separated by the text.

As for the titles, "So I played ____..." only works for games that already have some sort of buzz around them, whether that's because they're popular, infamous, controversial, etc. otherwise people aren't going to have a clue what the video is going to even be about. Is it a review? or just someone talking about their experience playing it? is it going to be gameplay footage? That title gives the audience nothing to work with. For example, "So I played The Day Before..." would work as a title because that game was getting a ton of coverage across the board due to the controversy surrounding it, most of it was commentary about it so seeing that someone actually played it would grab the attention of a viewer wanting to see/hear first-hand experience.

The other title, while verbose, says everything enough that needs to be said to grab anyone's attention. The only thing that irks me is the "that's actually real" because it just come across as a shallow clickbait tactic. The rest of the title is rock solid:

New [genre/type of game] - [game name] [video content]

Yeah, I'm not at all surprised why one video is greatly outperforming the other. Not sure what the point you were trying to make was.
