Jimmy Kimmel Hugs It Out With Markiplier And MissesMae Over YouTube Gaming Comments
The sad tale of the old man who just doesn’t get it may be coming to a close. After a week of mocking people who watch gaming videos, Jimmy Kimmel visited Mark “Markiplier” Fischbach and Jonna “MissesMae” Mae at Maker Studios to learn the ways of YouTube and Let’s Plays.
Of course, Kimmel kicked off the segment with more colorful comments he’s received from the gaming community. But this feud (or is it a "feud”?) seems to be coming to a close.
This week-long bit has been a source of laughs for Kimmel and anger from some segments of the gaming community. Hopefully, this saga has come to a close.
Will we see Kimmel start his own Twitch channel and stream Pac-Man and Donkey Kong? Probably not, but we’ll always have the memories of him being absolutely terrible at Rocket League.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
