The Angry Video Game Nerd

- Season 1

(2004)

James talks about The Karate Kid for the Nintendo Entertainment System.

The Nerd reviews a video game release of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit".

The Nerd grabs a beer and decides to review the first Ninja Turtles game for the NES. For a game that's based off of a kids show, it's not kid friendly when the platforms in the levels make it tricky for you to jump on and the rapid re-spawning of the enemies. The Nerd's main complaint is the electrifying seaweed which makes swimming under water more difficult than it seems. Not to mention that at some points in the game you're unable to get any of the turtles out of the water upon the land levels despite how they're able to swim in the underwater levels.

The Nerd reviews two awful Back to the Future games.

The Nerd reviews "McKids" a promotional game from the fast food chain McDonalds.

The Nerd observes the cartridge to the game Wally Bear, and is confused by the label that says "Press Here" which is literally part of the actual label of the game. The game itself isn't too exciting for a game that is trying to teach kids the dangers of drugs. The most ironic thing about the game is it has a hot-line that contains a recording of what is suppose to be Wally Bear telling kids about the dangers of drugs. The hot-line is still active to this day despite that the game was released 14 years ago. The Nerd suspects that the recording lays dormant in some ...

The Nerd invites a guest to play the two player mode on Master Chu. One of the hand full of NES games that come in a baby blue color cartridge. There isn't anything great about the game other than the main character being drunk hence the word drunkard in the title. The Nerd's main complaint is the music repeating itself with the same stereotypical Chinese music, along with boss fights that have no challenge to them.

The Nerd reviews a flight simulating NES game which is based off of the movie Top Gun. For an older flight simulating video game there isn't much to offer since it's made for the NES, but the confusing controls and lack of music makes the Nerd irritated. His main complaint goes to the landing the plane sequence which always results in the plane crashing into the ocean despite that the Nerd did his best to steer the plane in the correct coordinates. For the finale the Nerd reviews the sequel Top Gun: Second Mission. Which he likes how it's game play is a lot more fast ...

The angry video game nerd rants about the flaws of Double dragon III.

Jason Voorhees is pissed off that the Angry Video Game Nerd is talking smack about his NES video game. Instead of killing him, he makes the Nerd suffer by playing the game.

After getting rid of Jason, the Nerd appeared to be free from his torture. Only to discover that he's being visited by Freddy in his dreams. In the dream world Freddy forces the Nerd to play the Nightmare on Elm Street game for the NES. With the generic Halloween monsters and the campy music, it was far from being as great as it's movie counterpart. The Nerd's main complaint is that the main character in the game has no weapons except for the dream sequences. The Nerd will have to think of something fast if he wants to get rid of Freddy and get out of his own ...

The Angry Video Game Nerd will tell you why the power glove is so bad.

The Nerd takes a break from reviewing games to do this special episode in which he gives out his analysis on game and movie franchises with confusing titles and chronological orders. In the first part he complains about the bundle of remakes to Street Fighter 2, the spin-offs to Mega Man, and the unreleased titles to Final Fantasy. The second part of the review is where he mentions certain movie titles with confusing sequel titles or spin-offs. Particulary the Zombie movie franchise being a sequel franchise to Dawn of the Dead without George Ramero's involvement.

The Nerd is having a Rocky marathon at his apartment as a tribute to Rocky 6 coming to theaters. While five of the movies are being played on various media players in his apartment, the Nerd reviews the Rocky game for the Sega Master System. while the look of the game looks good, the game in general is too hard for a boxing genre game. No matter how many times the Nerd goes through the second match of the game, he's unable to proceed to the final match. In conclusion, the game doesn't hold up as well as Super Punch Out does.

For his first Christmas review, the Nerd decides to review a few unlicensed Bible games for the NES and Super Nintendo. The most obscured game of the bunch would have to be Super Noah's Ark 3D. Only cause it's the only first person shooter where you get to play as Noah. The game is basically a clone of Wolfenstein 3D which is a better first person shooter to play. The Nerd is confused as to why there are so many goats inside the ark and the reason for Noah to be attacked by goats is a mystery.
