Northernlion is a Let's Player, hailing from Canada. Aside from Let's Plays, he also does other shows such as Let's Look At and Only in Korea (started because he moved to Korea to teach English). He has become fairly popular, gaining over 20,000 subscribers. He is also a Machinima director, and runs a show called Poison Mushroom, where he takes a look at terrible games and makes fun of them. His channel can be found at http://www.youtube.com/user/Northernlion?feature=g-u

Games he has Let's Played:
Northernlion provides examples of the following tropes:
  • Bald of Awesome: A prime example
  • Catch Phrase: In The Binding Of Isaac let's play: "Stupid damage!"
  • Executive Meddling: His let's play of Assassins Creed: Brotherhood had to be removed from youtube due to copyright claims from Ubisoft. It was moved to blip.tv, but appears to be cancelled as he hasn't updated in a long time
  • Fan Disservice: His let's look at of 'sexy' Xbox Live Indie games. "Dominique is a man, baby, look at that jaw!"
  • Groin Attack: He is particularly amused when, in a Dark Souls video, he ends up shooting an arrow into an enemy's crotch.

You've heard of an arrow to the knee, well, how about an arrow to the dick?

  • Long Runner: His let's play of The Binding of Isaac has been going on for over 120 videos, and he doesn't show any signs of stopping.
  • Intoxication Ensues: For three videos of The Binding of Isaac let's play,[1] he was slightly inebriated. Needless to say, this led to some hilarious shenanigans.
  • MST: Invoked during the Grey's Anatomy let's play. Also his Machinima series Poison Mushroom.
  • Nintendo Hard: He's a big fan of these kind of games, and he's actually quite competent at them. (despite what some of the commenters might say) He's hardcore enough to unlock The Kid in Super Meat Boy and all the No Damage Runs achievements in The Binding of Isaac.
  • Noodle Incident: A running part of his humor
  • One of Us: He has referenced TV Tropes numerous times.
  • Reference Overdosed: To other games, movies, eries, cartoons and miscellaneus pop-culture subjects. It's almost imposible for a single person to get them all, because some make allusion to kinda obscure stuff. Case in point:

"J.J. what am I doing here?"

  • Running Gag: Whenever he does a Let's Look At-video of a Simulation Game, like Street Cleaning Simulator or Railworks: Train Simulator, he will conclude the session with an extravagant accident that would have surely reduced his vehicle to a smoking piece of rubble in real life.

I was thinking during the entire video: "How is he going to kill everyone in this game when he gets bored?"
