''This article describes the channel itself. For other uses of Shyrx, see Shyrx (disambiguation).''

Shyrx, previously known as SuperRhys217, is a YouTube channel with currently 4k+ subscribers. The channel mainly focuses on Super Mario 64 machinimas, but it also has reviews, rant videos, YouTube Poops, as well as parodies of other YouTube channel styles.

There is also a secondary channel that focuses on gaming content, named Shyrx-Daybreak.

History
The channel was created on October 13, 2013, and it was simply named Rhys with his last name. The channel's first video was also uploaded on the day of creating the channel. Originally, the channel uploaded plush videos in a similar style to The Cute Mario Bros., but it wasn't until October 29th of the same year that Rhys would start uploading Super Mario 64 Machinimas in the form of Super Mario 64 Bloopers. This is also when SuperRhys217, the channel's mascot, first appeared.

Since the channel started uploading machinimas, there have been many attempts at creating other types of genres, such as tutorials, animations, reviews, and even let's plays. The channel's name was also changed to SuperRhys217 around this time. However, the channel always stuck to Super Mario 64 machinimas, and the first serious machinima series started, named Light into Dark. The series was canceled however due to problems with part 5 of the series, and was replaced by Battle of the Stars. This new series also had SuperMarioFan590, another Super Mario 64 YouTuber, help make fight scenes. Sadly, this series was also cancelled. SuperRhys217 Generations came afterwards in 2017, though it was put on hold mid-series until 2019, where it received its last two episodes.

Sometime in 2015, SuperRhys217 began to experiment with creating fangames with RPG Maker, which started with Five Nights at Idiot Mario's. Four other games have been revealed since then, the most notable ones being Corrupt and the SuperRhys217's Rushed Adventure series. There have also been add-ons for M.U.G.E.N created by SuperRhys217, with characters like SuperRhys217 and SMG4.

On September 6th, 2018, SuperRhys217 announced that he would be changing the name of the channel to Shyrx, which as he describes, is a "branding sort of thing". The channel also turned 5 years old a month later, with a teaser for the fangame Corrupt. Since Shyrx would still be referring to himself as SuperRhys217 in some cases, while in others, he would call himself Shyrx, he updated the channel's logo so that it included both names. Three months later, Super Mario 64 Bloopers made its grand return. After the second episode, this wiki was created.

On June 21st, 2019, Shyrx announced he would be doing a QnA, where his subscribers would ask him questions and he would answer as many as he could. The QnA video itself released on July 8th, 2019.

On August 8th, 2019, Shyrx teased an ambitious new project he was working on, which was revealed to be World Traveler 64. The prologue episode was released on October 13th, and the series is currently ongoing.

The channel got a makeover in early 2021, getting a brand new logo and branding that utilized symbols from various universes.
