==History==
GameChap created his YouTube channel on April 18, 2007 but didn't start uploading videos until October 19, 2010 where he originally created short, live action skits.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcckAxpZMh0&t He would later begin making let's plays around 2011 where he first played The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. He would later begin to create a variety of Minecraft content, such as Quest for the Golden Monocle, Survival Island, and mod showcases. On November 6, 2014, he created the channel, TheChapsPlay which mostly consisted of the same content from AdamzonTopMarks, uploading let's plays, compilations, and top 10 lists. Around 2015, they began making content around Nintendo and other games, such as news and announcements, comparisons, evolutions, etc. 
On June 13, 2015, GameChap received a copyright strike from Nintendo from a video reporting leaked content for Super Smash Bros for. Wii U and 3DS. GameChap and Bertie would criticize Nintendo for restricting free speech and allowing other gaming websites, such as IGN, Kotaku, and Polygon to report on the leak. They would send Nintendo a letter and would encourage fans to support them to get Nintendo to notice.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ14Ek7Y4tQ&t Two days later, GameChap gave an update about the situation saying that Nintendo has not responded to the strike, but their network said they would investigate further. They later found out that other YouTubers' videos were blocked worldwide, while their videos were striked. They plan to take further action against Nintendo to remove the block from the video, though what has happened to the original video is currently unknown.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDG4dCv2-cM&t

==Criticism==
GameChap has received criticism for using clickbait for some of his videos, such as misleading titles and use of fan images in official games. For example, in the video "Super Mario Maker TOP 5 HARDEST LEVELS! (Wii U)", they show that the first level they play has a 17% clear rate. Some have said that a 17% is fairly easy and that the level is simple to complete. Some have also criticized the channel for disabling the comments and like-to-dislike button to avoid backlash from fans.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGZQLWV604o 
Some have also criticized them for using lewd or fetish material in the thumbnails of videos, such as featuring Minecraft girls in suggestive clothing or poses. One such example is the video "Super Mario Evolution of GIANTESS BATTLES 1996-2018", which feature footage from a fan game and an image of Princess Daisy stepping on Mario, which some viewed as clickbait.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGbC6-mDr3s
