End Update

A hypothetical update to the sandbox video game Minecraft overhauling the late-game End dimension. Although it was updated once in the 2016 Combat Update, another update to the dimension has been heavily requested by the game's community since the Nether Update and Caves & Cliffs updates in 2020 and 2021, respectively.

Minecraft fans have been clamoring for an End update for years yet the most they’ve gotten is dead leaves and copper pickaxes.

Orange Tesla

A 2021 YouTube video in which photos of three orange cars, including the titular Tesla, are shown while an unusual instrumental song plays in the background. While the video’s title claims it is a work of rapper Kanye West, the song is actually from the 1989 Sega video game Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle.

I never understood why people referred to Enchanted Castle’s Pedicopter theme as “Orange Tesla” until I searched for it on YouTube.

Firewalk Studios

An American video game developer founded in 2018 and acquired by Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) in April 2023. It developed the now-defunct 2024 hero shooter game Concord, which is often cited as one of the biggest failures in video game history. Following this, the studio was shut down by SIE in late October 2024.

Sony and Firewalk Studios didn't consider what gamers wanted and now they've paid the price.

I was here.

A phrase used by viewers of Internet live streams when a notable event, usually one that is expected to become a viral video clip, has occurred. Most commonly used when a streamer accomplishes a notable feat in video games, the phrase signals that the viewer witnessed the viral event as it happened.

My favorite streamer killed the ender dragon last night and the chat was spamming "I WAS HERE."

Steakhouse Burrito

A limited-time menu item served at Taco Bell restaurants from 2016 to 2017. It consisted of marinated steak, fried potatoes, bacon bits, sour cream, and cheese sauce encased in a flour tortilla. It was served with a side of nacho chips and cheese dip.

In early 2024, public interest in the Steakhouse Burrito was renewed by popular Twitch streamer CaseOh, who frequently expresses his affinity for the menu item and his desire for its return.

As much as you plead and beg and ask people on Reddit, the Steakhouse Burrito isn't coming back anytime soon.

Club Penguin Island

A now-defunct massively multiplayer online (MMO) game released in March 2017 as the successor to the classic children's MMO Club Penguin, which was discontinued on the same day. The game served as a last-ditch effort to continue the franchise following its predecessor's decline in popularity and resulting demise. It was poorly received due to its initial mobile-only release, lack of content at launch and, like its predecessor, locking most features behind recurring paid membership. Due to a combination of these factors as well as competition from social media and other forms of children's entertainment, the game was a commercial failure. Club Penguin Island, and with it the Club Penguin franchise, was discontinued in December 2018.

Club Penguin Island will live on as an example of how to NOT revive a dying franchise.
