What Happened To My $300,000 Gaming Studio...
Over the last year, a lot of people have been asking me what happened to my $300,000 gaming room that I used to stream from. So I decided to make a video explaining why I don’t use it anymore, even though the room is still there and fully functional. Enjoy and don’t forget to LIKE THE VIDEO!

WE NEED A WHOLE CHANNEL FOR THESE STORIES MAN great content bro
Agree
Let's call it "Nickmercs Story time while destroying kids in gameplay"
No we don't need that
@@edgegamer1409 imagine
Agreed
Love Nick's mindset. For all his entertaining character, the humble man behind it is pretty damn epic. Grounded where it counts. Still consistent with the workout stuff, the MFAM bbq's. Who else in his industry does that...
These guys should be our politicians. Positive af, funny and disciplined.
@@davidwaynemain hells yeah. Joe Rogan for President and Nick Mercs VP. Would be the best 8 years.
It is too few and far between my friend. Makes you feel grateful for all of the stability we do have in an unstable world right now. Really enjoyed this video and conversation.
him & SteveWillDoIt. Imagine Nick as President & Steve as Vice President..
@@davidwaynemain That's a terrible idea.
Nick talking about his childhood was so humbling and wholesome. It hit me in the feels I can't lie.
i played football w your brother in hartland and your dad used to coach us. funny hearing the story about your dad during christmas because im so used to coach K. growing up I used to get all worked up about going to practice because I dreaded how hard you dad made us work but looking back I wish we had like 5 of your dads as our coach. I miss the old days playing with Steven
I really really appreciate how positive Nick always is even when talking about topics like life for the past few years.. Its been weird but we keep on going and learning :) Appreciate you nick, you really are an inspiration brother ♥️
Love how the chat said buying the house was stupid when real estate is just a huge return profit if you let it inflate
making a $300,000 gaming room is not going to add value to the home. Unless some super rich fan buys the house, he will lose money on that portion of the investment. regardless of the property
@@joelhassell8126 couldnt he like use all of the equipment that was used in that room and move it into the new house?
@@heakr6899 the equipment was the cheapest part of the whole room
@@joelhassell8126 I mean the basement was empty and unfinished so by him making the gaming room he isn’t losing a ton. The price of the house went up from him making the room regardless of it being used for gaming. He also made a lot of money from just showing the room and having his sponsors displayed in it. Yea I’m sure he’ll still lose some money from it or break even but it’s not a waste because he invested in his career.
@@joelhassell8126 wrong. That adds a ton of value. Also the market has skyrocketed. He has already more than. Likely made his money back if he wanted to sell right now.
Coming from a canadian, got chills when Nick's talking about his buddy fighting. Best video I've seen on this channel
Nick I love the story times man. Played hockey my whole life and this was so awesome to listen to. Definitely want these on the channel more often!!
Don't even need the gameplay, nicky talking his shit is what we love Need more of these
Fr dead ass
Definitely a good format for stories. I love listening to them because it reminds me of my own childhood.
Can’t stand people who say you’re all about the money and not the fans. The giveaways, the bbqs, the workout streams, the stories… you have no clue how beneficial you are back towards your community. The real ones know how you are, and I feel like that’s what matters. MFAM for life bro. Please keep this stuff up.
This needs to become a weekly series - I don’t get to tune in a lot during the streams so I miss a ton of cool stories. I relate to so many of them lol
Your transparency is on another level. Bless you man you’re doing great things. We all can do our own stuff being stuck at home sucks, but at the same time the government is doing there best, and I feel like above that there are so many job opportunities everywhere it is time to create new paths for themselves and not let fear hold them back.
Weird times is an understatement I’d never considered moving to Florida till all this stuff went down. So far haven’t made the move but if things get worse definitely on the board. Keep up the good work man. We’re all out here grinding just like you.
I’ve only recently started watching nick, I’m probably old enough to be his dad, he has a great personality. I’m from the U.K. and my lifelong friend is from the north of England and nick is an American version of him. When nick, cloakzy and 72hrs are doing their thing it reminds me so much of our group when we were his age. 👍💪
I can be your budget American version of Nick 🤣🤣 DM I’ll get some games on the PC with you
I almost peed when you told the part you were mad at Tim for taking that ball in the face hahaha 😂 still laughing thinking about laughing about it
Your streams and videos have been the reason why I haven’t gone crazy, working in the public is hard man… don’t know what people are coming in with or what my coworkers bring in. I love all of the content Nicky! I’ve always wanted to play ice hockey too!
I know Nick has done some NFL streams before, would love to see him watch some hockey too. Love the channel man keep up the awesome work.
Amazon/Twitch has a deal with the NFL to show Thursday Night games. That's the only reason he's able to show those games.
Hockey is trash
more videos like this for the people that miss the stream, love you bro you do hella good work and have built a great community that follows you for who you are and not a video game keep killin it 🤙🏽
Love the stories and being able to listen to someone who genuinely inspires and makes life less stressful by making people laugh. NEED MORE OF THESE VIDEOS!!
Nick love the story time shit man! Peace and love baby!
Bro this makes me go from like to love for nick mercs. Homie your story is like mine even though mine was a little different not having a dad, but same shit pretty much. Most of all I love hearing you say how you weren't going to complain, even though you were heartbroken. I have had many many Christmases and birthdays like that.. I never said a word and just kept it g and grateful for what my momma dukes could do. now that I'm a dad I spoil the shit out of my kids, and sometimes I get mad because they don't know what actual respect is. Crazy cause even though I don't really want them to be spoiled, I don't want them to ever feel the way I felt ever! It's a hard line to walk.. either way man much respect you dude thanks for the story time that was cool really really cool. You need to let people get to know you a little more, I think that means a lot to the people that watch you daily
Crazy to read this comment because I’d be in your children’s shoes when I grew up. I turned out great my my father had nothing and gave me everything. You’re a great man for considering your children like that and no matter what they’ll love you forever and that’s the most important
I don’t wanna sound like someone that likes other people being worried/troubled but i like listening to you talking about real shit. Helps us realize that everything isn’t all sunshine and rainbows in your life like most streamers make it seem, you are going through the same shit we all go through and this video really helps people see that. Please continue to stay real!
I could sit and listen to your commentary. Your outlook on life and other aspects is great and relatable. Definitely enjoy these videos.
“We’re falling in love with things in a way we didn’t anticipate. And that’s OK.” 🧡
Nicky that was a great explanation... Love your attitude thanks for sharing of some grounded thoughts :-)
I love how chill and honest this man is. Thank you nick!! Please keep doing these!
Love this video and love the humbleness of such a big figure in the gaming industry. Nice to see such a big name like Nickmercs talk about the come up and life in general!
It would be hilarious if you did "my first" series or something like that. I love listening to your stories, I'm not even watching the gameplay.
First time Nick shat his pants ! (Besides when he was a Little Nick toddler )
Tim and Nick have to be some of the best story tellers
this was great nick, i love listening to your youtube videos while i play my ps5. when you did this type of vid it really gave me 30 mins of listening without having to look at your screen. like a podcast lol loved it.
9:50 your welcome Killing it nick. Keep it up! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Love ur story’s nick. Please tell more, I love it 🥰
Nick please make a Just chatting channel! I love Tim’s channel and I would love you to have one to listen to as well! Can’t wait for the BBQ!
must admit love hearing about your life and the complications that revolve around a streamer like yourself, glad you’re happy in florida and here’s to many more years of great content from nicky
Love the just chatting over some gameplay format. thx gary
In an alternate universe I could definitely see Nick as a starting center for the Michigan Wolverines leading the league in goals and penalty minutes for sure
Love to hear your opinions on everything. And all your stories man. People sometimes don’t realize that even though you may be in a better position financially then others doesn’t mean that this stupid germ hasn’t caused heart ache and problems for you also. Money doesn’t solve all your problems and sadly that’s a really easy excuse for all of us who aren’t as well off as others. Much love man keep doing what you are doing and don’t feel like you have to justify anything you do to anyone else.
Hella respect you for the decision you made man keep it up and I love this format of video, couple of these a week would be awesome!! Keep up the work man
it warms my heart seeing all these big streamers play apex man its been weeks and i cant get over it.
Strange times indeed. Thanks for giving a little peak at your non-gaming life. Peace, Love, and FREEDOM
For being a multimillionaire ( a hard working and deserving one ) he does connect with to his community on a real level. Nick is always a straight shooter and I can appreciate that.
love just chatting! this should definitely be more in the rotation in the YT channel. some days i miss out on the live stream and replay it on twitch to hear the funny stories😂😂😂
indeed this past year felt soooo strange for everyone.. stay healthy Nic! You made me keep goin through the past year, glad to be part of MFAM eventhough currently im not even live in US..
The hockey stories were great, this vid was fire
“Get grounded, go back home, get back to the basis”… dude buys a mansion 😂💀💀
Thanks for the update! Was genuinely curious after seeing the house tour video and how excited y’all were to make that home.
Honestly love your personally, enthusiasms, and the way you deliver on the story’s! I really stopped watching your channel since you switched to Apex. But would love to listen to these and other types of story’s. Keep it up! Hope you come back to Warzone so I can watch you more often again or some content like this would be great.
Love these! More of the just chatting videos would be awesome!
KZhead is going back to commentary over gameplay and i love it. Just like back in the day 😌
Absolutely love nick talking over gameplay. The downside to missing streams is this type of vibe that it’s tough to show on KZhead
Appreciate you a lot nick! Thanks for sharing. Just got my 13 months on twitch and I’ve enjoyed the last year so much. Can’t make it to the BBQ I’m in Cali but I think it’s an incredible thing you’re doing. Thanks for being awesome
I love the idea, look at Jev, it honestly doesn't matter what his gameplay is, I just want to hear what he has to say.👍👍👍👍
Jev does have some dope gameplay tho
@@sumthinvishus9300 ong
What you mean look at jev?
@@kariu. It doesnt matter what jev is playing because I like what he talks about
I can listen to jev talk about anything all day and i wouldnt be bored
"Waste of money" "You don't know what you're talking about it's okay" - what he meant: brutha I make bank haha
Yea Nick, just chatting/vlog-style videos are always a great way to switch things up and keep it fun! Keep it coming
Happy that you’re loving it down here in Florida, I just got my first job and have to leave the state. So sad to leave such a beautiful and peaceful place. Please share more of these stories, fantastic content. Peace and love
$300,000 grand.. holy that’s more then my house
@GamersUnite bro he makes that from twitch alone but plus KZhead and sponsorship it’s insane
300k for a house *cries in NY housing market*
@@G-Hex NY taxes is insane..I shouldn’t complain
@@jeremiahp4605 tru
Thats more then all the money in Nevada, by A LOT
It’ll be cool if y’all did what Tim does and show the chat in the video as well so it’s almost like watching the stream
i love hearing your stories and more about your life. don’t get me wrong, i love watching you game too but hearing your perspective and the stories of your life is amazing. keep up the good work nick. p&l ❤️
aye bro sometimes stuff just pops up an it's for the better!! your one of my big inspirations to keep going man, much love
This may be the most eloquently spoken video I've seen from nick in months W
If Nick and Tim picked topics within the gaming scene or current events going on in the world and they shared their opinions on it. It could be a nice podcast/new channel for them both
It’s would be good entertainment, I don’t know about informing tho LMAO
I’ve been enjoying seeing this new fire for a grind on a game you’ve never played before and seeing your improvements, think it be a really cool to see you try out another tactical ranked fps style game like seige or valorant, something along those lines !!!!
Amazing video the genuine side of you when you do these talks is phenomenal I was engaged and at some point I got emotional myself you’re a great guy great video
Michigan hasn’t closed in a while it’s been at least like 4 months
Posted 1 minute ago? Lol dang I’m early.
9 min I’m late 💀😂
@@kennyg6266 same 🗿
You just talking is really refreshing! Like obviously we live for the gameplay but talking more about your life and what’s going is really good to hear!
i 100% love these types of videos, so much content a lot of people who dont catch the streams miss out on
Was sup
As a fellow Michigander I wish we had the freedoms of Florida 😂
Keep doing these bro, enjoy listening and catching up when I can get on the stream.
Love this format and totally agree with you Nick - been thinking of moving to Florida myself, visited there last month and loved it!
The state shut down thats the best you got to walk away from a 300k gaming studio? Nick you spend countless hrs solo, gaming on stream then head into your private gym. A shut down state isn't effecting you. Love the hockey story though. Good stuff. You are Michigan at heart but you just like the Florida life style better. It's called salt life and you got a taste lol. Have a good one.
Agreed. And Florida being open isn't a good thing. Hearing all these twitch millionaires like Shroud and Nick, who I have a lot of respect for and who make content that I really enjoy, complaining about taxes is just something else.
I’m glad you aren’t in Michigan because go OHIO STATE 😂, but seriously all jokes aside glad your happy
I love this … like you explaining your recent experience and challenges. Why you are the 🐐
love these kind of videos I always miss the beginning of the stream cause of work so it’s nice that I get to hear some of the early chats here
“It’s not as simple as picking up and moving guys” *Moves states because a national pandemic shut down his hometown* Ok Nick 😂😂
Nick definitely a republican 😅
who cares. does it bother you he may have different opinions than you?
@@_VeL0_ it does bother me that somebody who I donated to may spend that money on political campaigns that would potentially hurt my interests and community. His opinion has no bearing on my life. Just how it relates to himself as a public figure. Good enough answer dickhead?
@@Tonynewkirk not really, you just turned to name calling and ranting about personal issues. if you have an issue with his views then don’t donate money…. he can do what he wants with his money. sorry softie :)
@@Tonynewkirk and he doesn’t care about your interests. don’t donate if you are gonna be concerned with what he does with your $20 dono lol
@@Tonynewkirk and as a public figure he can feel anyway he wants to. just because every media outlet pushes the narrative that republicans are bad which obviously they have brainwashed you to think then that’s your issue. everyone can choose their own opinions and they don’t need to fit the narrative the media is brainwashing you to think lol. turn off cnn for a bit and learn to develop your own thoughts and critical thinking skills that you obviously lack.
I love this side of nick.. being honest and true to himself.. happy where he is!
love the just chatting no cap one of my fav parts of the stream
Saying you like everything open while in the middle of a global pandemic, people dying and everything going on in the world is just elitist bullshit. I like Nick I really do but Saying these kind of things with the influence on young people he has is his perspective and everything but it's sad to see. It's egoistic but I guess that just the Florida way
I can barely read your comment from your high horse.
❄
imagine getting bothered because someone has different opinions than you. get over it, not everyone is gonna agree with what you think.
Always good to hear this type of conversation Nick. Great content.
These type of videos are a vibe bro ! Keep em coming 🤙
Legit my fav video of you man. We all love watching you slay lobbies and all.. but getting to know the real Nicky Mercs? wish i could like this video more than once! Need more of this!
Would love videos of the just chatting part in start of your streams as uploads on youtube. Can't catch all the streams and would love a chance to rewatch what you guys were talking about when I wasn't able to tune in. Problably would prefer a video with the topic as a title just to make it easy to sort out if I want to watch it or not. Love your content G, thanks.
Nick, the hockey story was so awesome! As a Canadian playing that sport my whole life I know what drew you in and I wish you had the chance to play. I hope you get your kids into and try and pick the game up now later in life. You’re the goat man and so are the stories. You should reach out to the lightning and see if you could do something with them.
Definitely like these type of videos. Didn’t pay to much attention to the game play but it’s cool listening to you talk about different experiences/life.
Im so with you and your opinion about this stuff. I live in germany and its so crazy shit going on here. I never believed something like this can happen so easily and the people are all scared. I hope you are right and this is gonna end… wish you and your families all the best!
amazing stories Nick, should put more of there, enjoyed it bro!
Love these videos! Haven’t been able to watch the stream the past week and I’ve been missing the podcast hour!
This shoulda been the canuck episode, the snowboard and hockey stories hit right in the childhood feels.
Good video man. Very good explanation, and the story about hockey was cool to hear. Makes you seem to us less of a video gaming celebrity and more of just a common guy. Keep em coming.
Played hockey my whole life and totally related to every single part of your story. Loved it!
Definitely do more of these bro that was so good
Great stuff nick, love these honest videos and stories my man
Solid video, respect Nick. That mind set is the biggest W yet. Much love MFAM too. We all in the world together at the end.
This is perfect for people who can't get to watch the stream. I love content like this Nick! Keep them coming!
The just chatting over gameplay is a great idea. Florida is amazing and ran way better, my parents live down there too. I do miss the studio vibes though. I would just do a mini version there in Florida if ur keeping it. I thought it was like another long term air bnb type thing.
I heard this live and still listened on this. Your story telling is incredible, I love it haha
awesome thanks for the video awesome watching you all this time over the years Nick!
