RetroNauseaTV
In brief[edit]
"When you want something completely different...."-NextG
Was suspended for copyright reasons and made a new account, RetroNauseaReturns, but was then un-suspended weeks later due to a legal battle with the creators of "Dance Party USA".
History[edit]
RetroNauseaTV started out in the summer of 2008, back under the old GenerationYM account, created a few vids under the "Bastardized" brand, it did not last long. Around late July-early August, YNX New Media (then VSN Plus) created an epic poop entitled "The Mouse Rocks the Peacock". In the fall of 2008, his first standard poop, "B-I-N-G-What?" got much attention and thus prompting an idea for a spinoff channel on YouTube. "At first, I wasn't really into YTP," says the head of RNTV programming "but after watching NextG's poops, it got me thinking how we can use the genre and call it our own."
In 2009, RNTV first came on the air as a review series that didn't get much interest, so it was retooled as a YTP showcase using mostly clips found off VHS, DVDs and internet videos. Heavily influenced by NextGPoop, RNTV went to do more TV-related poops that has a small yet loyal following. That same year, RNTV had its account suspended due to a copyright claim by Omni 2000, due to the use of clips from "Dance Party USA." However the channel was reinstated due to the counter-notice filed by RNTV claiming "fair-use." In late 2009, the computer used to create the poops (a Mac Powerbook) was broken and so he used a temporary laptop with Sony Vegas to create more poops, first under the title "Flushed Footage" and later returning to the RNTV brand.
On September 2010, RNTV had regained a new laptop, although it is a PC, it is more powerful and yet he continues to create new poops using a DVD ripper and rather than use the same formula, it is presented like a television program rather than a standard poop.
In the fall of 2011, RetroNauseaTV had aired it's final poop "The Eight O'Clock RNTV Poop 5" as the account changed its format this time from uploading YTP to full length game shows and segments from the 1980s talent show, "Star Search". The legacy continued on its secondary alternative account, RetroNauseaReturns in which it continues to thrive.
And in May 2013, it was offically announced on YouChew that RNTV would stop making YouTube Poops entirely. But RNTV will continue to upload other types of videos and mashups to his accounts.
RetroNauseaTV and RetroNauseaReturns are two subsidiaries from YNX New Media.
RetroNauseaPoops[edit]
RetroNauseaReturns made its debut on November 10, 2011 as the YTP channel since RetroNauseaTV became a general entertainment channel. It was there that "Gong Search" (later Gong Search Superstars) debuted along with "Where in the Poop is Carmen Sandiego?"
On April 28, 2014, RetroNauseaReturns launched itself as Retro Nausea Poops. In celebration, the channel reuploaded the original RNTV poop that prompted the channel to go further. On May 3, "The Poops Must Go On" premiered, heralding a new day for YTPs.

Reception[edit]
Criticism[edit]
In late 2009, another user began to masquerade RNTV under the pseudonym VSN411, which prompted the name change to YNX to further disassociate with the user. While the user now makes more original poops, RNTV uses a watermark to differentiate from other poopers.
