  • In this episode, the Nerd reviews a handful of Star Wars games. There have been many incarnations of the original trilogy and in this episode the Nerd reviews the different variations from the Atari 2600 attempt to recreate the arcade experience, to the Famicom game only released in Japan (for good reason).
    The NES and SNES also had their own versions in the 90s that are featured and are surprising improvements over the others. That being said they are still equally as frustrating. The Nerd also reviews Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back on NES, as well as the far superior (but way harder) "Super Trilogy" on SNES published by JVC and THQ. With special appearance of the Beer Droid. This is Angry Videogame Nerd episode 99

    man, the Nerd would really have a meltdown if he learned that "Vader" also turns into a skeletal pterodactyl thing, a shark, and a yeti at later points in the game....

      I think what they were trying to say is that star wars encompasses a larger spectrum of reality due to the neutrino expanse of the multi purpose universal solidarity of the module, doo doo, feces, michael bolton.

    @Cinemassacre : I know I'm waaaaaay late in finding this. Regarding NES Star Wars: It was a great game for me as a kid. Unfortunately in this video you quit before it got to the best bits. Once you escape the Death Star, you get to do the Quad-lasers vs TIE Fighter sequence, then X-Wing vs TIE Fighters sequence, and then finally a fast paced 2D upward "trench maze" to final get to the part you get to launch your torpedoes. Or you can watch others do it in their UA-cam videos. Empire Strikes back was long, if you had got past Dagobah, you had to fight Cloud Cars with your X-Wing (similar style to Snowspeeder level, but fast paced), then do same crazy map in Cloud City, then try to defeat Boba Fett's Slave I in your X-Wing, then another big maze to fight Vader. I had the old Nintendo Power books back then to help. Once you memorize the mazes, it's just the fight sequences that are hard.

    "Why does Darth Vader turn into a fucking scorpion? That doesnt even happen in the special edition!"
    That might be in the top 10 funniest things he's ever said.

      Funnily enough, there's actually a Star Wars themed cookbook called Wookie Cookies

    As a child, I played the Game Boy version (a port of the NES version) and I couldn't even leave Tatooine. Now, more than 20 years later, I'm making use of the quarantine spare time to finish games I couldn't as a kid, like Super Mario Land 2 and WarioLand. Those were kind of easy. But Star Wars... Man, can you believe I actually left Tatooine but without the lightsaber? I'm playing over and over again with the little goddamn blaster, getting further everytime, but it's a pain in the ass.

    big Star Wars nerd here. Yes, all those things Vader turns into are meant to represent Luke's fears. They are clones of him (think how many Snakes are there in the Metal Gear series) and they turn into things Luke is afraid of. Like scorpions. I guess because Anakin hates sand.

      @Paul Tincher He’s saying that’s why they added Scorpion Vader as a character. It’s listed as a separate character just to address the reason why he turns into a scorpion, to play on Luke’s fears.

    7:35 Reminds of when Mr. Harmond called his hoover vacuum "Come on, R2-D2." in "Are You Being Served?" I think it's the same model, too. :D
