Wiiviewer: Difference between revisions

[[File:1785998_387.jpg|frame]]

One of the many [[YouTube]] review series to gain its own identity and fanbase, the Wiivewer sets himself apart by not only reviewing only games on the [[Wii]] (which still includes the [[Virtual Console]] and [[Wii Ware]]), but also reviewing a lot of the [[Casual Game|party games]] on the system "as most reviewers won't do a fair review of those titles". He only occasionally does the major games.

Compare ''[[The Happy Video Game Nerd]]'', ''[[Classic Game Room]]''.

----

* [[Accentuate the Negative]]: He has admitted in his ''[[The Lost Vikings]]'' review that he likes to mock and nitpick games, but edits out the bits that are too harsh.

* [[And Now for Something Completely Different]]: From his 200th review to his 205th, he reviewed his favorite games on the [[Play Choice 10]]

* [[Appeal to Obscurity]]: When Wiiviewr notes that [[Alex Kidd]] is a playable character in Sonic and Sega All-Star Racing.

Wiiviewr: Exactly. }}

* [[Author Appeal]]: Admits he reviews so many games based on [[Game Show|Game Shows]] because he's a fan of the actual shows (even though the games based on them are hit or miss).

* [[Contrived Coincidence]]: This was well noted in his favorite parts review, but the fourth favorite moment was from Lit (the Rotating Light Scene). Many comments noted that Lit was his fourth favorite game that he reviewed in 2009 (and still holds the record as the only Wiiware game on his list)

* [[Deleted Scene]]: A number of scenes can be seen on the videos on his alternate channel, with some [[Blooper|Bloopers]] as well.

* [[Don't Look At Me]]: When he reviewed the Netflix service, he said this when his sons caught him watching his [[Guilty Pleasure]] show {{spoiler|''[[Charles in Charge]]''}}.

* [[Evil Twin]]: Considered for a story arc, but eventually dropped.

* [[Four Point Scale]]: Averted. He instead just rates games as "Buy", "Rent", or "Skip".

* [[Fridge Logic]]: Loves to poke fun at off stuff in the games during the reviews.

* [[Guilty Pleasure]]: In-universe, he admits that [[Fanfic]] is his guilty pleasure. He then uses it as a lead-in to discuss the concept of "[[WAFF|fluff]]", which is what he equates the game (a Christmas game) in question to: A cute bit of nothing that makes you feel good inside.

** Similarly the backlash from making fun of ''[[The Lost Vikings]]'' was so great that he had to post a response video the day after the review went out.

* [[Insult to Rocks]]: He says in his [[SP Ray]] vs. Truth or Lies battle video that comparing the former game's graphics to those of the Nintendo 64 would be an insult to the N64.

* [[The Internet Is for Porn]]: A variation in that when he asks his viewers to submit categories for comparing games in his "Versus" videos, suggestions like "Nudity" and "Sex Appeal" keep coming up.

* [[Just One More Level]]: Stated playing ''[[Harvest Moon]]'' on the [[Virtual Console]] was this.

* [[Little Miss Snarker|Little Mister Snarker]]: The Lil Wiiviewer and the Littlest Wiiviewer both have their moments. Especially evident in the "Pirate's Plundaaarr" review, where most of their dialogue consists of them telling him that, really, ''no one'' is going to want to watch him do a review entirely in pirate speak.

* [[The Rival]]: Princess Peach. She tends to get really pissed when he doesn't put her as his favorite for something. (the most famous one was the 13 favorite scenes where she lost to a monkey)

* [[Rule of Seven]]: His shortly-lived 'Seven Problems with...' was part of this.

* [[Running Gag]]: Purposely mispronouncing Japanese titles and ending videos with the game character dying. Also, he always calls Yoshi a girl.

* [[Special Guest]]: A cameo from his niece appeared in the Barbie Groom and Glam Pups Review game.

* [[Take That]]: From his 'Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing' review, this happens.

Wiiviewr: Exactly. }}

** (then he forgives the Sonic fans, and he did give the game a 'buy')

* [[Top Ten List]]: At the end of each year, he does a list of the top ten best, and a list of the top ten worst, games he reviewed that year.

** And then did a list of his favorite moments from his reviews. It's [[Up to Eleven|cranked up to 13 though]].

* [[Throw It In]]: During the scene with Princess Peach getting her 'kidnap emergency case' he sings an improvised version of the Oscar Meyer song and decides to put it in.

* [[Training Montage]]: Complete with some montage appropriate [[The Eighties|80s song]].
