* AccidentallyCorrectWriting: While ''[[VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII Kingdom Hearts III]]:'' ''[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolidVGroundZeroes Ground Zeroes]]'' and ''Kingdom Hearts III-2'' may have been jokes in his 2014 April Fools video, Chris accurately predicted the existence of both ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts02BirthBySleepAFragmentaryPassage'' and ''Kingdom Hearts III Re:Mind''.

* CreatorBacklash:
** To say Chris is not a fan of his early videos would be an understatement. He is quick to criticize most of the choices he made in those early videos and frequently makes fun of them and his past self for them in videos and on livestreams.
** Chris was not happy with how he acted on his Bethesda E3 2017 reaction stream, to the point where he decided to delete the first half from Twitch.
*** A similar situation happened with a ''[[VideoGame/KingdomHearts3 Kingdom Hearts III]]'' Critical Mode stream.

* CreatorBreakdown:

He used this time to give his sincere thanks to his viewers and friends as well as give himself a YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre speech.
** The exodus of professional ''Smash Bros.'' players due to sexual misconduct in July of 2020 made Chris decide to express his thoughts with the whole event during a livestream on July 2nd, 2020 where he expressed that he unfortunately felt unsurprised about the revelations at first before going into his disappointment and anger regarding them. Said segment was uploaded to [=YouTube=] a day later which can be seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmBh0b5C6Fo here]]. The event also caused Chris to finally decide to completely rebrand himself in an attempt to disassociate with the ''Smash'' community.

* ExecutiveMeddling:
** Chris stated that if given a choice, he would've done the Nutaku-sponsored video on ''VideoGame/HuniePop''. Instead, Nutaku had Chris play the Android game ''Tits N Tanks'', despite the fact that Chris did not own an Android device.
** On a livestream, Chris revealed that a company had contacted him for a sponsorship involving tasting Japanese candies on the condition that whatever video he made on it had to be solely about the sponsorship itself. Because of this, Chris turned it down as he felt it did not fit the image he had built for his channel.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Chris has gone on several purges delisting/privatizing older videos of his[[note]]''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsII'' Versus, Smashing Fiction, Adrenaline Shot, his one-shot video Fiddles, several reaction videos, and various smaller shorts[[/note]].

* MilestoneCelebration: Has had multiple videos celebrating a certain amount of subscribers:
** [[HilariousOuttakes Blooper Reel]] 2012 was his 1,000 subscriber special. [[MissingEpisode It has since been removed.]]

** The Smash Masters of Website/YouTube was his 5,000 subscriber special.
** The long-anticipated ''Rosario+Vampire'' Capu 2 was released as his 10,000 subscriber special.

** In Top 10N Scary Moments In Video Games (As A Kid), Chris states that he still did not have ''[[VideoGame/PokemonXandY Pokémon X and Y]]'' yet. This was a reference to his removed Most Anticipated Videos of 2013 video where he said he was excited for ''X and Y''.

** He promised a half-hour long video on ''Kingdom Hearts'' during his reactions to the reveal of a WesternAnimation/ToyStory world in ''Kingdom Hearts III'' with the tentative release date of "[[TemptingFate definitely before KH3, that's for sure]]".

** Chris had planned to stream the first three ''Franchise/SpyroTheDragon'' games to HundredPercentCompletion on June 29th, 2018 in celebration of ''VideoGame/SpyroReignitedTrilogy'' being announced. However, things kept getting in the way, causing it to be postponed to August of the same year, and then finally happening on September 22nd.
