A lot of the obvious games to rip on have been done already, by him or by knock-offs or shows inspired by his. That leaves him very little room to do game reviews that are original. I also think after doing 100+ reviews he has to have reached some sort of burnout.

I've yet to seem him to a TG-16 game.  That would be cool.

He probably just needs to take a break from the Nerd for a bit, then come back with a fresh perspective.

He does Fighting Street for TG CD in his Street Fighter episode.

I saw that a few days ago, he was really happy to finally bust out the TG16, even though Fighting Street is a piece of shit.

Thing to remember is that he's not quite the gamer most people assume he is.
He's an NES kid with a pile of other stuff he knows little about.  And he's a film
maker first, gamer second.  Pretty sure he wanted to retire the Nerd after that
Spielberg video.  He probably brought it back just because 90% of his viewers
just want to see the nerd and don't really care about his other stuff.

I actually like his board game videos more than his AVGN ones anymore.

I noticed most of his good AVGNs are the movie game ones.  and the original wave of NES ones.


I guess what bothers me most is when someone who basically only plays one type of game immediately starts acting like an expert on ALL things gaming.  When they don't know wtf they're talking about, they turn to Wikipedia. 

I just watched some idiots on a friends wall on my facebook.  I am only friends with this girl to troll her and her stupid friends.  They're your typical modern gaming scum:

OMG STEAM LAWL WHO WANTS TO PLAY MARPAR (mario party).  When the PSN went down, they acted like it was the end of gaming.  I told them to shut the f*ck up and play single player. 

They only play games that make the cover of Game Informer.  most of them work at gamestop.  Most of them don't know dick.

Anyway, the chick says something about some game for 2$ on steam.  then some dong licker says YOU CAN GET ROBOTNIKS MEAN BEAN MACHINE FOR LIKE 2$ TOO.

So I says to them "If I want to play Puyo Puyo, I'll play Puyo Puyo, on a real console".

Next comes the "Mean Bean Machine was released on the Sega MegaDrive in Japan, and Wikipedia says its Puyo Puyo with new art"

I replied with captainobvious.jpg and a youtube link to Puyo Puyo CD.

OBEY or gtfo.

Then he said Puyo Puyo sucks, and Neo Geo MVS had 5 good games.  I put out a hit on the f*cker.

Then why is he making a AVGN movie? :wink:

I doubt that really. He seems to love the hobby as much as the next retro gamer. Hell he even has a Neo Geo and most of the 80s era computers! There is a lot James Rolfe in the Nerd, and everyone has seen those home videos of young James roaring in frustration at the TV like we all did back then. The difference is the Nerd makes more poopie jokes. :)

Yeah but sometimes I get the feeling he has a ton of stuff not because he's genuinely interested or knows how to use it (the old computers), but because he has money falling out of his ass or it was donated to him.

The largest collection he has is the Nintendo stuff.  The rest seems kind of iffy.
