The nicher the better
Here are some of my faves
Not sure if this is niche at all (since video gaming essays are a dime a dozen), but ThorHighHeels does great videos on video games and gaming eras that are generally ignored by most people. Stuff like the fonts used in PS3 games, untranslated Japanese life simulators, janky handheld games, and all that. His video topics usually stray almost instantly from the title, too, so they’re always a fun surprise.
He’s a musician and self-styled artist, so all of his takes and video formats are something I don’t see anywhere else.
I am not claiming these are my faves or in order:
Marble Hornets: The Entire Series Explained
Did LOST Really Go Downhill (Part 1)
Farscape (1999) Restrospective/Review
When Games Get Too Popular: The Portal Effect
The Lore of the Two Blue Wizards in LotR
Why aren’t there any good Christian Games?

Thank you for your service. This has been my slop of choice as of late and always interested to find obscure stuff

I don’t know how niche they are anymore, but I really enjoy defuntland and QuintonReviews. Defunctland talks about old attractions at amusement parks, and recently had a hit with a video about the Disney channel jingle. QuintonReviews is a review channel that has, for the past year or two, reviewed a bunch of Nickelodeon tv shows, culminating in a discussion about Jeanette McCurdy’s book (CW for SA, EDs, just about every awful thing you can think of.)
