In her Kickstarter vid, she didn't make that claim. What she did say was that her videos *have* been used in schools etc. So please provide evidence of what you claim she's said.
Please provide examples of this. I've watched a few of hers and I don't think she does what you claim (though I have occasionally noticed where her logic "reaches" a bit IMO).
Please note your use of the word "can". Also, reviewing say 10,000 games would also require access to all the platforms ever designed for all of the games. While most of the platforms will still be in existence somewhere, I don't think it's safe to assume that they all are, let alone in working order. There have been some pretty obscure/unsuccessful platforms in the history of gaming. Furthermore, each game would need to be played from beginning to completion.
One other thing, her kickstarter asked for $6k, not $160k. While it is fair in some respects to point out the $160k figure, the scope of her project was obviously with $6k in mind, and she should do what she was paid the agreed figure to do. She may expand her research after completing the project that she received the kickstarter funds for and fund her expanded research/projects with that money, we don't know.
I wouldn't be surprised that if a research organisation took on the job of reviewing every video game ever made with Sarkeesian's idea in mind, they would want a budget of at least 10 times what Sarkeesian ended up getting. IMO that would be a conservative figure; they would need a team of suitably qualified people and pay them to play video games through to completion (completion being important to study the progression/conclusion of the story line). While some of the work could be short-cutted, as there are cut scene vids of many games available online, I don't think anywhere the full number of games ever designed are available in this manner.
I'm assuming we're talking about dangerousanalysis's video here. I disagree, he made claims to the contrary of what she was claiming (he claimed that the rest of the games she didn't review are not problematic in the context of sexism), and furthermore he claimed that she lacked the research for her claims, then does exactly the same thing himself.
If he didn't make the claim that the rest of the games she didn't review are OK, then I wouldn't ask him to do the research that he claims she should have done. I'd disagree with his opinion though for the reasons I have stated in this post.
I'll probably take a look at the 'investigativejournalism' vids you posted.
In her kick starter video she claimed that she was going to do extensive research, as far as we've seen this amounted to her flipping through wikipedia and stealing some lets play footage from others. She is always evasive, she isn't going to say its academic level, but she implies it by saying her materials are fit for education.

But yes look at the instig8iveJournalism videos, it looks into her previous work and its just terrible. Even long before this kickstarter she was doing this stuff, its a look at her college thesis, and its a joke, and the same broken reasoning seen there is seem in her feminist frequency videos.
As for claiming that her critics haven't watched her videos, you do realize that many of the videos like jordanowen42's are actually longer than than what he's critiquing since he includes her video within his own, and since it takes 20 minutes to explain just how convoluted some of her arguments are. This has been going for almost 2 years now so many people who have followed it from the start have gone through many hours of material, since the time between her releases is months you have a lot to catch up on. So you can't just watch a single video without watching the rebuttals to see what's wrong or deceptive, people have picked apart her work for a long time now, and its not only the quality of evidence against her but the preponderance of evidence against her. Its clear this isn't just one mistake here or there, this woman relies on dishonesty.
Its not up to Dangerous Analysis to prove the other games are not problematic, he just proved she didn't actually legitimate evidence to make the claims she did. She didn't do the work to tally up which games from the total have damsels in them. She didn't even do a minor analysis based on just a subset, perhaps just consoles from X years. All Dangerous Analysis has to do is prove she hasn't done enough to make the claims she is making.
And lets not hold her to such low standards. She's a grown woman who claims to have a degree.

etc
Sure there are quite a few, but that's what she was paid to do, a few hours or even days and she would have worked through that pile. Even if it wasn't all inclusive of every video game everywhere it would be a good enough sample to actually base her claim on something.
Anyways seems like someone made the opposite case 2 years before her kickstarter.
