History
SkylanderDude8, at the time, was created on May 23, 2012 to be a YouTube channel about video games and other silly videos. The channel varied from goofy skits with video game and cartoon characters to unboxings and lists and/or videos of various video games. It also later had vlogs that were shorter in length. The videos remained mostly the same until January 2015.

On August 15, 2012, a new series was started after the cat, Toby was a new addition to the family on August 11, 2012. The series was named "The Cat Show", and it had episodes consistently made until Episode 38 on August 31, 2012. After this episode, the series went on a long hiatus as the computer screen broke after the filming of this episode. The series has not seen a return until April 14, 2014, and episode were only made occasionally until Episode 50 as the series had not seen a return after this episode.

In January 2015, the account went through a change that was addressed in the video "What is Derek Staedtler?" (the former name of the account before it was changed to Derek S) on May 21, 2015. This change was made after Movie Maker started posting videos on Derek S. At this time, SkylanderDude8 became a channel about mobile gaming videos from apps like Everyplay or Kamcord. Games that were recorded include ''Terraria, Crossy Road and Goat Simuator. However, Derek S became a channel about vlogs, unboxings and reviews (which later transitioned to Derek The Retro Gamer; formerly named Derek S Reviews). ''Also, an exception to this change was that the series "Video Game Pickups" still remained on this account.

However, in October 2015, the gaming videos on the channel were never seen again. The last gaming video was on October 4, 2015, and the video was named "Pac-Man 256 Gameplay".

After gaming videos disappeared, the channel has only seen occasional videos starting with "Video Game Pickups #17" on October 16, 2015. Most of the occasional videos were compilations of old videos or edits from the now discontinued YouTube Video Editor. The last video seen on the account was "The Most Boring Video Ever" on July 26, 2017 which was an hour long video of a green screen with the text of the video's title.
