tamers, a guy that made retarded (yet strangely well animated) ms paint animations of Sonic has switched over to ponies. It gets like 10-30x the views of his old Sonic stuff.
https://www.youtube.com/user/Tamers12345/videosI guess it's good that someone creative can make money from it now, but this kind of sucks since the Sonic stuff was so dumb and retarded and fun. I've linked it a few times here over the years, and it's just the right kind of old youtube juvenile humor that makes me laugh. I don't think anyone else here really liked it, though.
I didn't think this was still a marketable demographic, but going from 3k views on average to six digits is a pretty big leap in ad revenue. Bronies being a subset of furries means they're probably going to pay money directly to him too for more content. Good for him, but I'm going to miss watching it.
Such is life. The allure of furry money is too much for mortals to handle.
