I've been battling Google for about half an hour with no luck
Can anyone remind me of the name of the (possibly b3tan) Youtuber who did increasingly annoyed deadpan reviews of crappy retro consoles?

Are you referring to zero punctuation reviews?

Guys name was Yahtzee if it's the same one.

Thanks, it wasn't Zero Punctuation, although the style was very similar. I think they were a few years earlier. The reviews were generally unboxing videos, often with the console on some sofa cushions while he complained that they were just another clone of a system he's already reviewed. Probably made it into the newsletter a few times.

Google sucks now.
Duckduckgo is my main search engine but it has so many blind spots. Dogpile is also very patchy. Bing just searches google. Have you tried asking Jeeves?

I've used Google forever if it's not broke ...

It's beyond broken, it's complete dogshit.
The first page of results is nearly always bollocks that's only there because of 'optimisation.' Opportunities to buy goods and services that are at best tangentially related to your search terms.

Have you noticed boolean operators don't work how they used to? It's not a true search engine any more.
