GoNintendo 'End of Day' thought - Thank you SO much for supporting 'My Parents Play'

You guys are awesome. I don't even know what else to say besides that. Thank you for being you...because you're pretty damn rad. See you in a few, short hours.

How many times have I put up posts on GoNintendo talking about how humbled I am by your support? I can't even count the times. I'm sure the messages have lost some of their meaning for a few of you, but I hope you realize that they still mean just as much to me. I don't write them to try and butter you up. I write them because I'm genuinely appreciative of the love and support you guys continue to show.

Why am I babbling on like this yet again? I have another fantastic reason to do so. The Super Mario Maker edition of My Parents Play has hit a new record for the series. Not only has it brought in a ton of new subscriptions, it also has broken the 20k mark. This is an absolutely HUGE deal for me. We've been really pushing our original content lately, and it's clear that this video series has hit a mark. 20k of you have taken the time to watch the video and like/dislike it. You've also spread the word, for which I cannot thank you enough.

Not only has this series been well received by you guys, it's also given me another great way to spend time with my parents. They usually visit once a week over here at GN headquarters. We play games, eat food and just hang out. It's always nice to see them, but having this feature to work on has given us a brand new way to bond. Its been super rewarding and has created a whole new set of memories that I'll cherish forever. Thank you so, so much for making that possible.

I know that GoNintendo has been a real dog-and-pony show. It's always been like that and that's the way it'll stay. We don't try to be fancy and we're not out to impress by pretending to be something we're not. We're quick and dirty, but I do pour a ton of heart and soul into this site. You guys matter to me and are worth all that time and effort that I can give. I'll just always be amazed that you recognize that and pay me back in ways that I can never truly thank you enough for. Over 10 years of GoNintendo and we're still going strong...stronger than ever.

Not the first or last time you'll hear this, but just as meaningful every time I say it. Thank you very, very much.
