The Official Angry Video Game Nerd Discussion Thread

[Jorpho]

I'm sure the presence of Nightmare on Elm Street on his wanted list is leading to much scratching of heads.

Too bad I don't have that Tagin Dragon cart anymore. But given what I managed to sell it for (and how much I paid for it to begin with), I'm not sure I'd have wanted to donate it.

[Kitsune Sniper]

He wants New Ghostbusters II?

Why not just buy the Japanese version? It doesn't have any Japanese in it, and it isn't PAL. :P

[chrisbid]

I like how he wanted to know if anyone wanted to donate a Nintendo World Championship cart.

why not get a reproduction of a game like that?

[Kitsune Sniper]

He mentioned repros in his video. He basically said "It's impossible to get this game, unless you want a repro."

He didn't ask anyone to donate the game. :P

Yeah, he did ask. He asked in his blog.

"Adventure Island Classic (aka Adventure Island)"

I have an extra boxed copy of this somewhere. I'll have to shoot him an e-mail.

[FxMercenary]

i can sed him nintendo world championship and dragon warrior 4.

[Zap!]

The "Little Red Hood" thing is news to me. What's the story there?

Sounds like a porno.

Here's his second review of the Star Wars movies. This time the special editions and the prequels..

Yeah I have my own copies of Dragon Warrior 2, 3 and 4 I could have sent him, but unfortunately I can't let those go, especially for the good prices I picked them up for. ($20 for DW 4 with a big crack on the cartridge, still plays and saves and doesn't come apart as the crack is under the label)

I am a true AVGN fan, but I just can't as I am also a big Dragon Warrior fan too.

The guy at a local game store has All four Dragon Warriors selling as a set for a ridiculous price, as well as an R.C. Pro-Am II selling for a similar very high price ($100 or $200?) as well. I'm not sure about his Mega Man set though. I think he finally let somebody go and buy individual games out of that stack of all 6 to complete their Mega Man collection.

I am also wondering if the AVGN has collected the Aladdin Deck Enhancer and its carts? He didn't show them.

Rating Return of the Jedi "a 10 out of 10" and calling Darth Maul "useless" shows me he's no hardcore Star Wars fan.

Because he doesn't agree with you? Oh boy...

I'm not a huge Star Wars fan, but it always bugged me that before Episode One came out, they were pimping Darth Maul like there was no tomorrow. Then he dies in the first movie!?! WTF?!?

[Zap!]

Because he doesn't agree with you? Oh boy...

Because he doesn't agree with the overwhelming majority of SW fans. Darth Maul having to fight two Jedi (yes, I said "two Jedi", NOT "two Jedi's" like the Nerd would say, proving he's no real fan) is not "useless".

Return of the Jedi was in no way a 10 out of 10 like he said. ANH and ESB were though, and that's the accepted veiw by the hardcore fans and critics alike.

Yeah, that was a big mistake. In 1999, I idolized DM so much he was all over my house.

This is the second dumbest thing I've read on these forums recently, second only to your reasoning behind scamming buyers on ebay.

Being a fan of something is not objective. It is not a science where there's a right and wrong way to feel. People who say things like "Well, he's not a *TRUE* fan because..." are worthless elitists.

Who cares, anyway? Is it that important that the Angry Video Game Nerd shares the exact same opinions as you?

They did the same thing with general grevious. He was hyped up and killed in no time.

[Daria]

Yeah, he did ask. He asked in his blog.

I used to debate whether or not to include high profile titles like Panzer Dragoon Saga on my want lists when I didn't have anything worth trading in return. In the end I ended up adding the games to help me keep track of everything I was missing, realistically obtainable or not.

That's how I see his list. He's not necessarily asking for every game posted, just letting us see every game he's missing.

I am a self-proclaimed SW fanboy. I'm sorry if it offends you, but I must state my case when another fan bashes Darth Maul. I agree I should let it slide that he called ROTJ a "10", but it was a combination of things. Saying "Jedi's" would get him corrected by any hardcore SW fan. That is not opnion like ROTJ. It is SW fact it remains Jedi.

Let it go about the eBay. I out beat a scammer low life, not some innocent guy.

Bothered me too, and I'm also a SW fanboy. Such is life.
