I think Jaws for NES is pretty ok. It's no Mario or Zelda but it isn't terrible.

He really double downed on an uncanny look like the 89 Joker with a touch of Romero's camp and a slight of Ledger's grit. It's great to see a return like this. And yes, I have Jack's Joker to compare faces.

Discussion What is the Nerd hottest take for you? To me, him dissing on the original Metriod.

For very good reason mind you, Metriod NES is not exactly a refined game, but he was so pissed about it, it's like he's reviewing one of his other bad NES games.

Hi, so I'm not American, and I don't fully understand this weird criticism culture in the U.S., but seriously-three hours of just hating on a retro game video? Someone help me out here.

My family always taught me: "If you dislike someone's opinion or work ethic, just leave them be-as long as no one is getting hurt or offended."

So how in the world is spending over three hours just being a hater considered normal in the U.S.?

Discussion The end?

100 Upvotes

I think we’re in the endgame of AVGN, a few months ago James said he had six AVGN episodes lined up to be released monthly til December. Since then we’ve had:
Toejam and Earl; with Scott the Woz, a crossover with a creator that took heavy inspiration from James.
Crash Bandicoot games; another crossover, this time with Caddicarus, another creator who has said James was a big inspiration
Bubble Bobble; the return of Kyle Justin after so many years, felt like a final farewell to a beloved character
Batman, Dark Tomorrow; Mike ‘minecwaft’ Matei is back as the Joker, he hasn’t been featured on the channel in many years
It feels like James is having a final send off, featuring desired crossovers and the return of fan favourite characters. Given that this year marks twenty years since he first started uploading to YouTube, there’s a chance we have two more videos and then it’s so long, you fuck.

Discussion The Dark Tomorrow Scale

With the Nerd's new worst game of all time, Batman: Dark Tomorrow and the shit scale category named after his personal bane, what other shitty games would belong there? Or what bad shitty video game you've played belongs there?

I should emphasize. What is a game that is so terrible it makes you really mad? What game is so bad it's BAD, not good? What game do you curse the very existence of after playing it?

I thought it was some meme/criticism place, it's fucking impressive how deranged and obsessed they are.

They are having discussions about what a 44 year old wife and 2 kids guy does all day like wtf? Some are memeing and stuff but most just there to unironically make fun and just spew hate? Do these people have literally no life, and it's not like they are teens or younger people most are probably 30+ yrs old.
