Anthony Fernandez (born Tuesday, December 12th, 2000 [age 16]), known on YouTube as DeWarioFreak (pronounced as "duh-wario-free-k), is an American YouTuber. He makes gaming videos (let's plays, glitch videos and montages), abridgements (anime and cartoons) and vlogs (comedies and opinions) on his YouTube Channel. He has more than 3000 subscribers, and several channels, that are all active.
History
2011 - 2013
Anthony joined YouTube on June 21st, 2011. His first videos was a walkthrough Wario Land 4, which has now been unlisted. On September 4th, 2011, he made his first Let's Play of Luigi's Mansion. It was recorded with a camera instead of a capture device, and he was only 10 when he made it. After several parts of the Let's Play, on Part 12 (June 6th, 2012) Anthony switched the Let's Play (and all gaming content on his channel) to a Capture Device. He finished the Let's Play at Part 18 on August 31st, 2012. He had around 100 subscribers at the time, and his Twitter (@DeWarioFreak) was made in this time. A Facebook page was also made, but it is now discontinued. On April 16, 2012, DeWarioFreak and his brother TheCodingGamer made a collaboration channel called TheFunChums. Towards the end of 2012, Anthony started a Let's Play of Yoshi's Island for the Gameboy Advance. It was recorded via GameCube on the Gameboy Player. However, he never finished the Let's Play, and it has now been unlisted. Over the course of the next few years, he made several other videos, including Super Smash Bros. Brawl videos, several game reviews, and unboxing videos.

On July 7th, 2014, he began a Let's Co-Play of Pokémon Silver which also featured TheCodingGamer as a co-commentator. As of January 2017, the Let's Co-Play has still not been finished, but Anthony has confirmed it is not canceled. In 2016, he made several other channels, including DeWarioFreak 2nd Channel and DeWarioFreak UK. On January 17, 2016, he uploaded one of many Splatoon videos on his channel. This was also the first video to have him using an ElGato HD60, which he now uses for all gaming content. In the Summer of 2016, he planned a sprite-animated series about Nintendo characters, called Smashy Lives. However, on August 25th, 2016, he dropped an iPad on his computer hard drive, causing him to lose all the animation. Still, he had several voice actors, so he made anime abridges instead, using the same voice cast. On September 17, 2016, the first episode of Pokémon Generations Abridged released. It was successful, and he continued making anime abridges. As of January 2017, he still makes anime abridges, gaming content, a weekly Podcast series and vlogs.
