Yeah and since the very beginning hes been getting shitty games in the mail from fans lol. Hes lived a tortured existence for our pleasure. Hes retro video game jesus. Its how hes got so many goddamn games in his collection.
@@nullakjg767 Well said! In fact, a little while ago I sent him a copy of Spyro: Enter The Dragonfly, AKA the Sonic 06 of the Spyro franchise! (Though in my opinion it's more like Spyro's equivalent of Tomb Raider: Angel Of Darkness) XD I'm sure the Nerd will have plenty of fun with that! ;)
AVGN started as 3 videos on Cinemassacre, his own website as a short 3 episode parody series back in 2004 (James is an independent filmmaker and was more into horror movies at the time.), before being found by the website GameTrailers' ScrewAttack, around 2006 and getting sponsored to turn it into a full fledged series (that's why there's the gametrailers logo in most of his earlier videos before the intro theme song) Due to copyright and copycats (Like IrateGamer) he had to flip-flop between being able to upload his episodes on UA-cam or not (so most of his early stuff was only available on Screwattack or Cinemassacre) up until 2010 or so.
@@allenellsworth5799 And so unrelentingly difficult, it's aiming to put the NES/SNES era's utter sheer brutality to shame. Just like good ol' times, doc!
Houdini Catfish and you could order a now-rare video cassette called the Cinemassacre Gold Collection containing a lot of his older works and even the first two AVGN episodes back when it was just called “Bad NES Games”
Shit pickle was a character in skits he used to upload to UA-cam and his website. He appeared in at least two AVGN episodes. “Action 52” and “Master Chu and the Drunkard Hu” I believe.
AVGN Adventures was made by a proper Indie Developer with funding, a huge difference from the others (well, the Typing of the Dead Spoof as well). There's been a second AVGN Adventures, which I heard was even better, and Adventures 1 was remade and improved with 2. Well, just from accounts of people who played both.
Half of those games are also donations from fans, most of them shitty ones that they want AVGN to review ;) =) Also, Shit Pickle is from the Master Chu and The Drunkard Hu-review, one of AVGN´s earlier episodes. You should check that one out.
The AVGN Adventures game was professionally made hence how good it is. I bought it on the Wii U and was hard but I finished it. It was meant to come out on PS4 and XB1 but for whatever reason it hasn't. It has a sequel too on PC and I think Wii U too.
They're largely donations, as well as games that friends and families have given him over the years (though you look in recent years, there's not as many games, largely because he built a literal "video rental store" in his basement for another review show. Plus, he's got two kids now).
Lol the older games are the expensive ones. James has been collecting since you could get NES games for 99 cent at Funko World and he also gets donations and I'd say makes a pretty good living thanks to his channel these days
AVGN, Rock & Roll City, Nerd loses his mind when he can't beat these games.... Reminds me of that Kiss song: 🎶 Ya gotta lose your mind in Detroit, Rock City. 🎶
Those older games are more expensive. Well some of them. He started uploading videos to the internet in 2004. Also I just noticed you live 40 or so minutes away from me. Just moved to Minnesota. Good to know there aresome good UA-camrs around here.
Now you'll need to react to Board James Mr Bucket and Dreamphone episodes to get the board james reference. And the Giant Claw is from his giant movie monsters review
I know I'm extremely late, but, I think all those games in his room are all from fan donations, since a lot of them are probably very rare, and fans sometimes send him those games, including ones they want him to review, at least that's what I think.
James bought most of his retro game collection in the early 2000's, when they were cheap and no one wanted them. Now they're expensive as hell, ironically, thanks in part to his popularity, lol.
also new consoles using the now no longer under copyright hardware were released by third parties. so lots of people were able to play the games without spending a lot of money to get a working over 25 years old console.
UA-cam started around 2005 but got popular in 2007 and avgn was around before that people would post there video on a normal website that people made to share there own art and weird stuff but after 2007 he posted his very first video but that the time he was know as the angry Nintendo game nerd that the time
Somebody please make a 2-In-1, AVGN style, game of; Big Rigs Over the Road Racing And Microsoft Flight Simulator - Flight Simulator Joystick required! For laptop/Windows!!
AVGN has been on UA-cam since 2006 and he’s been on this platform ever since!
Yeah and since the very beginning hes been getting shitty games in the mail from fans lol. Hes lived a tortured existence for our pleasure. Hes retro video game jesus. Its how hes got so many goddamn games in his collection.
And has been doing AVGN since 2004

Luna Yeah that’s pretty much the only redeeming factor about it.
And he just released another avgn video today

Jon: Why?!
Ashtyn: :) Ah, yes, groin trauma to all guys. My favorite part.
This comment deserves a lot of likes lmao
The last game is an official release.
And it has a sequel

The only thing I got from this, You guys BADLY need to react to Board James... if you ever do more than 10 minute vids
James Rolfe as Angry Video Game Nerd playing himself...In a game
You can Play the AVGN Game. It is available in Steam
And the sequel
All these games on him just show how much we all love the Nerd.

Avgn was around at the onset of UA-cam around 2005-6. It was the first channel I ever subbed to. Back then he had about 3 or 4 episodes.
But his first episode was made in 2004 and was uploaded on another website.
An OG subscriber? Respect to you a veteran if that's true.
UA-cam was made in 2005 and his channel in UA-cam was made in 2006
shit pickle was in the episode master chu and the drunkerd hu
and Action 52
@@ironscatman that doesnt count
Mr. mysterious yes it does. He made an appearance therefore it counts
But he first appeared in the drunkerd who shows his character more
Half of those games are also donations from fans, most of them shitty ones that they want AVGN to review ;) =) Also, Shit Pickle is from the Master Chu and The Drunkard Hu-review, one of AVGN´s earlier episodes. You should check that one out.
Some of the games the AVGN owns in the background were actually donated to him by his fans.
5:36 Not for me - I'm used to playing games like that! :)
14:20 Funnily enough, I'm actually playing Monopoly as I'm watching this. :)

stingersplash I have the game on 3DS and no, the sequel isn't on Wii U. Both are supposed to be coming to the Nintendo Switch though.

AVGN was working for Game Trailers in 2007
You guys should react to Board James Mr. Bucket, The Dream Phone and 13 Dead end Drive episodes.
Lol the older games are the expensive ones. James has been collecting since you could get NES games for 99 cent at Funko World and he also gets donations and I'd say makes a pretty good living thanks to his channel these days
4:30 kitty in the window spotted 😸😽😺
Not only is his game collection huge, his movie collection is that impressive as well
He is indeed from the day most of these games were made. I believe he was born in 80 or 81. So he was about 6-8 yo at the peak of the NES.
AVGN, Rock & Roll City, Nerd loses his mind when he can't beat these games.... Reminds me of that Kiss song:
🎶 Ya gotta lose your mind in Detroit, Rock City. 🎶
UA-cam was made in 2005 he started making angry videogame nerd in 2004 but started on newgrounds
Those older games are more expensive. Well some of them.
He started uploading videos to the internet in 2004.
Also I just noticed you live 40 or so minutes away from me. Just moved to Minnesota. Good to know there aresome good UA-camrs around here.
@Michael Mathers idk it just interests me. Got a problem?
If you wanna know where Shit Pickle originated from, react to AVGN's review of Master Chu and the Drunkard Hu!
Now you'll need to react to Board James Mr Bucket and Dreamphone episodes to get the board james reference. And the Giant Claw is from his giant movie monsters review

Did Ashytn do somthing to her mouth?
Possible allergic reaction?
I just noticed there is a cat in background behind the two reactors (not my first time watching it either)
some vintage games can go for hundred or thousands depending on the game
There is a newer avgn official game sequel. He actually did have an issue with the deathblocks and in the sequel he had them tone it down.
AVGN has been around since 2004 so before UA-cam. He has his own site and I believe he was on Newgrounds as well.
Please don't stop reacting to Avgn. Please.
@Wicked1 I'm asking them to NOT stop reacting. I'm not asking them to stop. I'm asking them to NOT stop.

Have you learned that the angry video game nerd is a fictional character invented by james rolfe yet?
He has a website called Cinemassacre that he posted the videos on before UA-cam
UA-cam has been around since 2005..... I joined in 2007 I retired not to long ago though.....
