How Famous Video Games Got Their Names 

“Minecraft is just a mix of Mine-craft” This just proves that he’s secretly AI at this point.

“Minecraft is a mix of mine and craft” someone get Sam a Nobel Prize

For the full story about Mario, it was supposed to be Popeye, saving olive oil from Bluto but Nintendo wasn’t making much money at the time so the owners of Popeyes refused so then Shigeru Miyamoto replaced Popeye with Mario and replaced olive oil with Pauline and Bluto with donkey, Kong

“And yes, went on to be the namesake of Kirby” *AAAAÆEAAAA*

Nintendo in the '80s: Gets sued by Universal Nintendo in 2023: *Releases the Mario Movie in collaboration with Universal*

The moan of Kirby💀

Kirby:"Moans" Sam:"Pretty cool right?"💀

Why do so many people think Kirby saying Hi is him moaning? 💀

For Roblox, the correct reason why it's called this way is the fact that it's simulating block physics. The prefix "ro" is simulation like ro-racing for example

“Universal tried to sue Nintendo for using their character” Universal really tried to out-pizza the hut 💀

Bro really had the balls to add that sound💀 Edit: Ok, I might’ve started a war in the replies

Did you know that the original name for Pac-Man was Puck-Man? You’d think it was because he looks like a hockey puck but it actually comes from the Japanese phrase ‘Paku-Paku,’ which means to flap one’s mouth open and closed. They changed it because they thought Puck-Man would be too easy to vandalize, you know, like people could just scratch off the P and turn it into an F or whatever. Also, Hey you know Pac-Man?… Well, Pac-Man was originally called Puck-Man… they changed it becau- euhhh… Not because Pac-Man looks like a hockey puck… Paku Paku means flap your mouth. They weref worried people would chang- scratch out the P turn it into an F… eh…. heh… Uhm… Am I dreaming?… I’ll leave you alone forever now.

Actually, Mario was called Jumpman in Donkey Kong

Kirby saying "Hi" is cute

What about smash bros? 💀

Sam can literally say anything and I'd watch it

Wow, who knew there was such an interesting story behind Minecraft's name!

"went on to be the namsake of kirby" *AAAUGHOOAH*

“Minecraft is a mix of mine and craft” Bro’s achieved a new level of enlightenment 💀

Imagine going to school and the teacher calls you "Mr. Kirby" 💀

Did you know that PAC-MAN was originally Puck-Man but then the creators were afraid it was gonna be graffitied and change the F Man.

Edit: nvm i was wrong lol i forgot to edit this

“Mr. Video” sounds like a knock off video converter 💀

That Kirby noise jumpscared me

"And yes, it eventually became the name of Kirby." *"AAaAAAaAaaAaAAA"*

The moan when he said “Kirby”💀

I like it how people thought Kirby was moaning when he was just saying hi.

Roblox: dynablox Dynablox: *EDUCATIONAL PHYSICS SIMULATOR*

“Minecraft is just a combination between mine and craft” WHO WOULD’VE KNOWN?!

" and yes went on to be the namesake for Kirby" "AAAAIIIIIYYYAYAYAYYAIUAYAIAYAUAUII"

Idk why but kirby got me 😂

"Universal sued Nintendo because Donkey Kong sounds like King Kong" *Oh how the tables have turned*

Mario’s first name was Jumpman

Funny that Nintendo was sued by Universal and 40 years later they released a movie together

ah yes, Link, my favourite video game

Bro forgot about jump man 💀

Crazy universal sued nintendo over donkey kong and would decades later go on to make a movie for them involving the exact same game

Here's how resident evil got its name. In Japan the game was called biohazard (I don't know the origins of that name) but has to be renamed for the American release because in the 90s biohazard was an overused word. So the held a naming contest and that's how resident evil got its name.

Fun fact: Popeye goes into public domain next year and then Nintendo can use him

ladies and gents, kirby defending donkey kong's namesake is officially canon now

“Minecraft is a combination of mine and craft” nah bros stretching it

Minecraft was actually called Cave Game before but then they changed it to Minecraft for some reason.

Fun fact: the names of the animatronics from FNaF were originally placeholders but the creator grew fond on them and they've stuck ever since

That AEhaE from kirby was cute

PAC-man was originally named puck-man but do to obvious reasons they changed the name to Pac-Man

”Umm according to my calculations Link was named ”Link” to connect the future and the past that the games were designed around. Link was supposed to be able to travel through time, and ”link” the past and future together” -🤓 Also. Bro forgot about the pocket monster thing.

Link was actually named that because the original game was supposed to be based around time travel, and he was the link between times. 🤓

"Minecraft is just a mix of mine and craft" *vineboom sound effect*

why was the Kirby sound effect so funny 😂😂

Man kirby is a lawyer

Many years later, Nintendo and Universal release the Super Mario Bros. Movie.

I love when sam comes inside me with entertainment 😫

Since nobody decided to say anything about this, I will do it myself. Minecraft was originally called "Cave Game" as a placeholder. Notch asked players what he should call the official game. Someone said "Minecraft: Order of the Stone." Notch liked the name, but decided to shorten it to just "Minecraft". If you ever played Minecraft Story Mode, you'll remember hearing "Order of the Stone" which is a reference to this.

Kirby got a bit too excited..

Sam needs a new comment section. Lets stop with the “Sam is the type of guy” comments. It’s annoying

(Link is actually representing the link of the hero/courage but yeah that too)

WHAT WAS THAT KIRBY SOUND

I love how kirby gets fuckin cut of like that😭

Fun fact: Sam is ex employee of every company he named

On god everytime I hear Zelda I think of that one girl from pet cemetery

mario one lol they missed they chance

Minecraft is actually a shortened version of its working name from 2009; "Minecraft: Order of the Stone"

Cool. I knew about the Zelda names. I didn't know Pakman was based on a Japanese onomonapea. The same thing happened to Pikachu, the mascot of the Pokemon series. "Pika" represents the sound of an electric spark. So it is a "spark" or "sparkle". "Chu" represents the sound of a mouse. So it is a "squeak". Since Pikachu is an electric mouse Pokemon, it would make both sounds. It is even fitting for the anime. This is where Pokemon say their species name whenever they vocalize. Pikachu is essentially Japanese for "sparkle squeak". That is such an adorable meaning. The name is carried over to English without translating. The Japanese word for thunder is "rai". Pikachu has Riachu as it's evolved form. Raichu essentially means "thunder squeek". That is actually pretty cool. Raichu is so underrated. It needs more love.

LInk is actually because thw original plan for the forst game link was going to the past and the future

the kirby sound oet"gvbw

“Minecraft is just a mix of Mine-craft” Thanks, Mr. Obvious

Sam deserves a better comments section. The most common comments on his videos are: 1- Comments criticizing or making fun of him 2- Stupid "Sam's the type of guy" comments

Actually Minecraft isnt named in english its actually a german name And it says my power ( mine-craft)

KIRBYS MOAN BRO 😭💀

"Minecraft is just a mix of mine and craft" You didnt have to cut me off-

john kirby was like you are already under my genjutsu

Jump man anyone?

how did u get the yt name "sambucha"?

Noooo. Just no. Jumpman, not Mr. Video.

Pikmin is an actual misspelling of Pacman😂

kirby def caught me off guard

Sam is the type of person to get a lot of “Sam’s the type of person” comments on his RU-vid videos 💀

Sam giving me very useful info

THIS IS ABSOLOUTE NON-SENSE BRO

Ah, that's why Kirby was a lawyer in a SMG4 video

"and went on to be a the namesake for kirby, *ÆæāÁÆAA*

It’s jump man not 😂mr video😂

Roblox aint about mf robot and block stop lying 💀💀

Am I the only dumbass who thought it was mind craft

Wow, who would’ve thought that Universal sued Nintendo about a name back then, but now they both teamed to make a Mario Movie lol

Fun fact, Minecraft was originally named Cave Game but was shortly after renamed to Minecraft.

Sam is type of guy to cuddle someone else's toddler

ROBOTS AND BLOX?!?! BRUH WHAT I HATE THIS ROBLOX HAS EVERY ONE OF THESE GAMES ON IT ROBLOX IS LIKE A GAME INSIDE MULTIPLE GAMES AND USUALLY THOSE GAMES INSIDE ROBLOX ARE COPIES OF THE ORIGINAL GAMES LIIE AMONG US AND MINECRAFT AS AN EXAMPLE THEY HAVE SIMILLAR GAMES ON ROBLOX IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ROBOTS AND BLOX

So Kirby technically allowed the existence of donkey Kong

Ah, that's why Kirby can absorb anything. The lawyer it was named after had the ability to absorb any licenses to any character.

Halo was originally called monkey nuts while in development but was changed to blam when the lead developer didn't want to tell his mother he was working on a game called monkey nuts

That Kirby sound made my dogs head turn

Just realized, Kirby saved basically everyone in smash bros ultimate, and John Kirby saved nintendo in a case. oh the irony.

Doom got its name from a movie quote if memory serves

BRO THE KIRBY NOISE PLAYED RIGHT NEXT TO MY MOM ON FULL VOLUME AND SHE THOUGHT I WAS WATCHING H3NT41 💀💀💀💀

“Minecraft is just a combination of mine and craft” Noooooo I never would’ve guessed 🤯🤯🤯🤯

irl kirby looks like in game kirby fr fr

"F. Scott Fitzgerald" bro just summoned the Bsd fandom

I always though monkey Kong made more sense than donkey Kong
