* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: ''V&A Top 10'' has never had a home video release, likely due to the use of licensed video games, music videos, and movies from other companies (though to be fair, few YTV original series have been put out on DVD.) With [=GameTV=] no longer airing repeats, your best bet to watch episodes is either on Website/YouTube or through tape trading.

** Had ''V&A Top 10'' lasted into the 2006-2007 season, it would have been airing new episodes during the timeframe of the UsefulNotes/{{Wii}}'s launch, but it was cancelled before we could see contestants compete against each other at Wii games.
** The show never featured UsefulNotes/VirtualBoy or UsefulNotes/NintendoDS games on air either (even though both were launched during the show's run), likely because neither had a TV peripheral like the UsefulNotes/SuperGameBoy or the Wide Boy 64 to facilitate them.

* LongRunners: In terms of both Canadian game shows and children's game shows, ''V&A Top 10'''s 15 year run definitely counts. You could probably count on one hand examples of each that lasted 15 consecutive years without being cancelled in between. Though unheralded as such at the time of it's cancellation, ''V&A'' was YTV's longest running original series (and it still is, if you don't count YTV's ''The Zone'' programming block as a show.)

Crowner called for removing Hey, It's That Voice/Guy examples from trivia pages: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1454613823001793300&page=4#89


* HeyItsThatGuy: Though it'd be easy to bypass or forget about Nicholas' array of co-hosts over V&A Top 10's run, a few turned up in more prominent later roles. Notably, both Gordon Michael Woolvett & Lexa Doig had roles on Gene Roddenberry's {{Andromeda}}, and Liza Fromer now co-hosts The Morning Show on the Creator/{{Global Television Network}}
** Some V&A Top 10 co-hosts also served as YTV PJs ("program jockeys") featured on other original programs in the early seasons, but by the end of it's run, co-hosts didn't tend to pop up on other YTV shows.
* HeyItsThatVoice: Regional example, as Toronto-area viewers and fans may recognize Nicholas Picholas as a radio DJ and morning show host on Kiss 98.5 FM out of nearby Buffalo, New York. [[http://kiss985.com/Hosts/5673303#Nicholas In fact, he's still there!]] Outside of the Toronto area though, fans will likely know him first from V&A.

* NoBudget: The prize budget alone is proof of this (sponsored or not), as individual prizes were only rarely more expensive than a game being played that week (They did give away a ton of small prizes through home viewer contests though.)
* OfficialFanSubmittedContent: Letter Time, where Nicholas Picholas read one letter a week from a fan (usually with their name, age, and favourite games & consoles), and a game played that week was sent to them as a prize.
