In Angry Video Game Nerd episode 209, The Nerd dons his leather hat and whip again to pick up where he left off in 2008, playing more bad games based on the Indiana Jones films series! This time though he's got something brand new for you - a game based on the newly released Kingdom of the Crystal Skull for the... LeapFrog Didj?! The Nerd also digs deep into Young Indiana Jones games on Sega Genesis and NES, some of Indy's PC and DVD adventures, and his first venture into 3D in the Nintendo 64's the Infernal Machine. The game footage was intentionally degraded to try and make it look old.

Thank you for uploading this James. You are amazing
Cool
Has he played lego indiana jones?
The new ones called Indiana Jones and the dial of diarrhea
@@SurvivenTerryyou just gave me a notification while I was watching, HOLY!
Just so you know the gameplay was intentionally degraded in editing have the footage look old. Enjoy the episode!
good to know~ thanks james!
James you really blew my mind with this editing, I thought maybe this was a lost episode at first, thank you for always being creative.
That makes it even more epic!
The effect is so convincing, it genuinely feels like older AVGN footage. Cool idea!
Thanks for giving us this amazing sequel episode, @JamesNintendoNerd. I'm just surprised you didn't play the LEGO Indiana Jones game.
I like how he solved 32\8 correctly and jumped on the 4 platform but still died lol
I really started doubting myself. I was about to grab a calculator because I thought I was going insane. XD
I had an aneurysm during that scene
Same here, thought I lost it or I'm dreaming
He jumped again off of it lol
I literally paused the video and checked a calculator to make sure I wasn't losing it.
I actually thought this was an old episode that I somehow missed back in the day and didn't realized it wasn't until the point James starts joking about de-aging Indy😅
7:20
Me too
Same here man.
Me too just realized it a week later
Pretty sure maclunky was added to SW years later too lol
The fact AVGN can still do the classic style 100% flawlessly is insane. Wow great work!
I cant believe its been 15 years since avgn did an Indiana jones episode!
And here thinking he just denied the existence of the new all female indiana jones just came out.
You and me both.
I think that was the most recent episode when I started watching him
My kid was one year old then lol
@@rapatacush3 What?
It's horrifying to think that _Crystal Skull_ is old enough to be covered on this series.
Yep PS2 games are now as old the NES were when he reviewed them lol
@@jackthompson8873oof I was kid when I had my ps2
@@jackthompson8873that's crazy... I feel old now..
@@jackthompson8873My head is in denial and still wants to think of the Xbox 360 as a modem console even though it’s almost 20 years old.
Great movie, though
18:42 "Rolf? Nobody's name is Rolf."
Except for the guy from Ed, Edd, n Eddy.
True, but I was thinking 'The Office'.
And the protagonist in Phantasy Star 2.
Lol james last name is Rolf....
r/woosh
This episode of AVGN was lost media... great that James could recover it from the archives just like an archeologist!
Yep
You know he recorded this recently and used deageing software.
It was unearthed out of a diarrhea dump (that had a bit of earth)!
you know, de aging editing and make up is a thing since a long way ago
@JazzClassSymphonicit’s being watched by TOP MEN.
This is crazy. I really appreciate every detail, including the chair consumed by cats and the Boo tribute. We miss you Boo.
So basically, only the little footage of Boo was actually older? It could have been from early 2020, months before Boo's passing, as far as I care!
@@asmodeus58XX w-who is boo?
@@anaceattorneyfangreatgame9770 The late, great cat who took down the evil Jaguar symbol.
I love the extra effort that makes this look like James actually filmed it in 2008: at 14:56, you see James' cat Boo (RIP). Unbelievable attention to detail.
I miss Boo
I didn't even notice that! RIP Boo
The aliasing and standard def look. Wouldn't be surprised if he's using the same camera setup as back then!~
Something as simple as the way him opening the drawers to get out the game is shot just the same as an old episode takes me back
Seeing him made me sad… RIP in kitty heaven little guy…
Old style retro AVGN is the best, loved the old glasses too !
At the end Kyle should have appeared behind the couch and said: "Finally I can go home"
i legitimately couldn't tell in the beginning that this was actually new footage, i thought it was a reused older episode to tie into the new one. honestly impressive how much it feels like an early AVGN episode
You mean it isn't?
What, it isn't?
I kind of thought he might have recorded this back in the day - then I looked at the original and realized that he was much younger back then... but the costume, background and framing is spot on; the lighting is much better in this new video though.
@@nicolaspeter1679 Mandela effect kicks in
@@flemmingpedersen567 I wonder how he did it. He does look older in most of the segments than he did in the original video, but he also looks younger than in the scenes where he's holding the Dial of Diarrhea. I'm thinking maybe he deep-faked himself, which would make sense since most of the available training footage would have him a tad older than in his earlier videos.
The most unbelievable part of this for me was that the Didj was an actual console
The past 50 years are littered with videogame machines which flopped and faded into obscurity.
Didj know gaming?
I had a Didj with Sonic the Hedgehog
i had one with a star wars game
@p0st426 same! I had one as well. Never expected to see it in a video.
"Agent Rolf? Nobody's name is Rolf"
Signed: James D. Rolfe
1:36 “it’s gonna be good,I have faith” famous last words
I really like the inclusion of his late cat when heading off to the Cinema. Thats attention to detail and a lovely nod to an old friend.
I loved that part too. top notch stuff
Indeed
I love that avgn is going on so long to go retro on itself.
The previous Indy review episode is so old it's even older than Egoraptor referencing avgn in Sequelitis.
"No one's name is Rolf"
-James Rolfe
All AVGN episodes are the best in their own way, but this one goes above and beyond in every possible way. Thank you James
The Casino Games one was top tier.
Did you go out and buy a red rug just to make it look like the 2008 nerd room? Kudos.
Crazy the amount of detail. Just crazy...
And his old glasses
@@peronkopyes he really knows how to recreate!!!
@@vpofrentemspoons2278link?😊
@@peronkop You people are incredibly easy to impress.
I love how the entire video looks retro. I actually miss the old episodes. It's like nostalgia within nostalgia.
It is a part 2 to an older video.
Is that a reference to his Castlevania 4 review? :D
i really hope you continue to use the older cameras to record makes it feel more nostalgic one of my favorite videos from recently, also goes to show you dont need all that fancy equipment to make these amazing videos
“Imagine you saw a scorpion that big and had the nerve to punch it.”
I mean, that’s just another day for Courier 6.
It's great to see how self-aware James is, and how he can replicate the feel and look of his (now) older reviews. I love you, AVGN since you were the ANN
His reaction to seeing Crystal Skull reminds me just how pathetically whiny people were in 2008 and it’s so sad that people tend to still act that way now in the darkest recesses of the internet.
Not sure I believe its actually a replication. Well done to him if this not simply old, unreleased footage.
@@peronkop our big bro looks much older now compared to his part 1 indy review
I prefer the older style episodes with the handheld camera look
@@MostlyPonies1 Same
The Nerd accidently whipping the lamp is still one of his best moments
Thanks for the new hilarious episode with allusions to the previous episodes years past. Have a nice summer!
I prefer him whipping the wall, Belmont-style for meat in an old CastleVania review.
He really should play the Lego game
One of the best episodes! It has that classic feel and the right anger levels!
“Rolf? Nobody’s name is Rolf.” 😂😂
Except for the son of a shepherd from Ed, Edd n Eddy.
And the protagonist in Phantasy Star 2.
@@richardxavier5442And Rolf Lassgård.
That subtle Boo cameo was so sweet... I love how much care and detail goes into these recent episodes and having them feel truly reverent to the past.
I teared up a little bit. Boo :(
Go boo
This feels just like a classic AVGN episode, which makes sense cause it’s a sequel to one!
I agree. Its been years, since we ever got a classic avgn
Re-Upload
@@joeblankenship377No its not
Everybody for the past 40 episodes : "it feels like a classic AVGN episode"
What if AVGN is just the same as back then?
14:18 just for personal use...
8:05 That’s The Crystal Skull drink by Dan Aykroyd
Watch in 240p for an ultimate nostalgia trip levels of awesome
This was without a doubt the best AVGN episode of the last 3 years. The old style just works.
Agreed
Best since Corpse Killer because that was legit over a decade in the making.
The Last Ninja is the best of the past 3 years. This might be 2nd best.
I love how he made it sound like an episode back in 2008, like this is a lost episode.
definitely one of the best AVGN episodes The bit with the dial was super funny
the diarrhea dial yess legendary
I feel ashamed that I didn't know this was a new episode and not a reupload... somehow. But now that I watched it, woa, it's nice to see James experimenting with new ideas while making tributes to the older episodes every once in a while. The commentary section is filled with people who don't know how great most the newer episodes are tho...
They aren't tho...
@@SilliamWilliam-xb7sl Not sure how you could think that. You can tell he still puts a lot of passion into his videos.
This is one of the best modern AVGN videos it actually feels like a video from 15 years ago
personally one of my least fav
Whatever
@@TheDirtyMonkey you discovered UA-cam yesterday then well done.

Which of the games is your favourite?
18:43 - "YOU DARE MOCK THE SON OF A SHEPHERD!?"
5:46 He literally predicted the movie 😂
Would of been hilarious if the episode ended on “cinemassacre regrets to inform you that Avgn is dead” like in the genesis game
*Would've
Typos aside, that actually would have been awesome
This AVGN episode is so hilarious, it belongs in a museum!
So do us :)
18:41 LOL a wisecrack about Agent Rolf made by James AVGN Rolfe!

@@bobbyb4591*So do WE.
It has the guy from Transformers is probably the best description of Shia Labeof I've ever heard
4:18
Nerd: Who would have the nerve to go up to a scorpion as big as him and punch it?
*Fallout New Vegas theme intensifies*
Fate of Atlantis was incredible, and it aged surprisingly well. Definitely worth playing if you’re a fan
Also available as an extra on the Wii version of Staff of Kings (an Indy game that didn’t make it into this episode).
The Last Crusade 1990 point and click game was also pretty fun. This video made me want to play Desktop Adventures again.
Fate of Atlantis is my favorite game, plays great even nowadays
Had it on the Amiga, 638 discs, adored every minute of it.
That game has the one puzzle that drove me insane as a kid…. Use the whip through the door to get a statue. IF YOU KNOW THIS SEGMENT YOU KNOW THE FRUSTRATION
The sequel we didn't know we wanted
Couldn't have said it better.
But we got it, anyway. ❤
@@stallionblood1288The sequel we know we didn't want
Better said?
Better than the new movie
Agreed
15:10 - Me after watching Strange World
It didn't come in 2008 though
@@jarrellfamily142215:10 - Oh. Sorry. I meant to say, "After watching The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning"
The ending to this episode is so funny. I wish the guy from the last crusades movie would have shown up and said "You chose poorly"😂
I thought that Kyle would be behind the couch)
I need more of this. It literally felt exactly like one of the early episodes. Please let them all be like this from now on
YESSS!! I feel the same!!
@@DannyMidi same as well
I was thinking that too
whats the point! ? you can't be the same forever
Because it basically was the same as an old one.
This is like a classic episode! I love how nostalgic it feels. Please do more like this James, it just feels more authentic to the Nerd imo.
This ep is exactly what I enjoy about a nerd. Everything is here.
It's too bad Staff of Kings wasn't covered here, as I heard that was a bit of a mixed bag.
This episode was sheer utter brilliance
Man growing up with James has been such a wholesome experience. We are the same age and he’s inspired me in so many ways. Proud of James for keeping the nerd going strong for almost 20 years now!
Not wholesome.
@@folksurvival Is wholesome
@@gorgeousfreeman1318 Halfsome
When you look back, James contribution to online reviewing is quite substantial
@@folksurvival k bye troll
My favorite part was definitely the intentionally bad editing when James dodged the gunshot, referencing the same thing that happened in the Star Wars remasters.
The amount of seamlessly added Indiana Jones quotes in this episode made it all the more better
I’m actually curious if he grabbed one of his old camera and microphone to do this one… or that was an archive he kept for over 15 years and waited until they did make a new movie. It’s crazy because he looks younger in the retro footage.
I was thinking the exact same thing!
This whole episode felt like a classic AVGN episode, from the old 4:3 layout to the fact that James even recreated the room he did the original Indiana Jones episode in. I love it!
and it feels like he used an older camera too
@@steveg5122he actually did
I'm glad Rolfe is getting back to the character more these days.
rolf? nobody's name is rolf
@@toastedmatt9387 I was referencing the video lol
18:42
I came here to see if anybody posted that quote. Now I am content.
@@pum6454 Your mom is named rolf.
18:40 "Nobody's name's Rolf" :D
@JamesNintendo-TXT_ Thanks for bringing up the 'Fate of Atlantis' -- I had no idea about this gem, planning to buy it and have some decent old-school play at last. Cheers!
8:09 The actual plot of Desktop Adventures is Indy staring at the unpaid bills just sitting there at his desk
This is so well done, I honestly thought the past Nerd segments were filmed 15 years ago but never released until now!
They weren't??? I'm actually impressed. He looks and sounds younger. Am I crazy?
Same!
one scene was. the one where you see boo, james's sadly deceased cat.
Same here
@@y_s4021he's digitally de-aged
As someone who’s been watching AVGN since 2007 this was an awesome throwback to my times as a gamer back then. Getting out of school to go home and read EGM, watch G4, and of course catch the new AVGN vids. I miss those days.
4:00 don’t you remember in last crusade when Sean Connery says “Indy?! Indiana was the dog’s name!”
7:20 ooops
Thinking why hasn't AVGN made a Wolfenstein 3D episode yet, still glad to see him make videos
It’s crazy to think AVGN is still going after all these years!! Amazing work as usual James!!
Then again, so is Cyberchase on PBS lol
AVGN + Costume oriented video= Instant Classic
Everyone says this
Rolf is not a name
Oh man the Nerd Room looks just like it used to! 😂
This one made me feel old. I remember when the Crystal Skull hype episode came out. Got outta school, smashed a bag of hot Cheetos while watching it and binging old nerd.
Here I am, all these years later, doing the same, except after work
24:32 The power glove works perfectly!
24:42 These batman ganes are amazing!
24:53 Big rigs is one of the best racing games i've ever played.
Thank you so much for the nostalgic video style, so appreciated! Love this episode! More please 😊
The nostalgia for this episode is through the roof for me right now. I remember watching the nerd's indiana jones review on a summer night, now I'm experiencing it all over again
18:42 "Nobody's name is Rolf." I beg to differ Edboy.
James Rolfe's last name is very similar to Rolf
I thought the same thing. Figured it was a joke against himself.
"the power glove works perfectly" cracked me up more than it should have
Cap`n Rock `n`Rolf Kasparek, lead singer and guitarist of Running Wild ;)
If crystal skull really had Indy punching giant scorpions in the face it would legit be the best movie ever.
fallout fans would appreciate it as well
The biggest scorpion ever that I know of is Scorponok, the Decepticon Headmaster Commander from G1 Transformers. I had the original toy and now I have the new one, he's awesome!
Punching Darth Vader in the face, only to have him turn into a giant scorpion.
@@DreFromMaine8472 i see that fortress maximus has come himself
@@yeeoof1995 yep but I don’t want him. I also have the new Omega Supreme and I want the new Trypticon!
This really is an incredibly well done episode. It absolutely the best episode in years.
the Fear and Loathing was great too
In years 😂 that's a stretch
@@treewisps4085that one completely lacked focus and needed the skits and other unrelated games to pad it out. Was not a fan of it
The Doom one was outstanding too
@MaxEck2005are you completely daft. That episode was genius. Have you seen Fear and Loathing? Every reference was on point. It was the perfect intersection of Gaming and Movie. The WHOLE THING was a skit. How did it lack skits? You didn't understand it and any fan can prove it.
That was a fun episode, thank you for still making videos! I've been watching since 2006/2007
@21:20 I'm belgian and I can say that the word "belgian" and "intelligence" don't belong in the same sentence except if we talk about making beers.
“No one’s name is Rolf” 😂 pure gold
“You dare mock the son of a shepherd, nerd boy!?”
James added an E like joe Dirte
5:07 How did he fall through the platform, the answer is 4 isn't it?
Yes I was very confused about that too lol
Most likely an error from the developers.
Who just walks up and punches a scorpion! Fallout New Vegas players have been there before
am I the only one who noticed that the footage of the games seemed really shaky and just hard to watch? When I noticed it I thought something was wrong with my monitor.
You can tell the passion is back in this episode. But that ending definitely teased at something.
Imagine this was just the last episode ever
@@Jagarm87 Or a new Nerd and then they just act like there is 15+ years of backlog as if The Nerd we know never existed.
@@Jagarm87 The thought crossed my mind but I refuse to believe it because that would be the saddest thing imaginable
na, something similar happened in the berenstein bears episode. And then again in polbious. Sometimes the nerd dies, but he just comes back
@@gambetamaster9804the multinerdverse begins
Tie in video games to one of James’s favorite movies franchises… now these are the AVGN episodes I grew up on… They belong in a museum
is it me or is some of the gameplay very..."flickery"?
13:08 This part is severely underrated because that was somehow edited into the video in the exact style of the game. Even going behind the UI.
Wait what do you mean
You really took us "back to the past" with this episode. Thanks Nerd!
To think that we have come a long way from AVGN accidentally breaking something whilst doing the whip on one of his games
10:06 I also had Emperor's Tomb
4:20 punching a rad scorpion in the face is beyond insane
Why the wobbly screen capture during the gaming footage?
I like how you filmed this episode in 4:30 and even used a classic microphone set up. Sounds like an old episode of Angry Nintendo Nerd!
Future episodes should be like this
Nerd’s soft scream as he fades from existence is actually pretty terrifying
The best IJ game in my opinion is Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings. A perfect blend of action, platforming and puzzle solving
Best episode in a while. Good job!
Also, I think James looks better in the wire framed glasses. Maybe I'm just nostalgic.
Old Smosh returned today and now a AVGN classic style episode. Can this day get any better.
my childhood is back
Nature is healing.
this episode is the definitive proof he should have never used HD cameras
James found this episode of AVGN behind a 7/11 in the dumpster on an unmarked video tape.
Of all people to cover the Didji version of Indiana Jones I didn't expect AVGN, I was the target audience as a little kid then playing that junk. It was my favourite because I didn't have to do math to play it.
Besides Indy and SpongeBob, what other franchises had games for the device?
Star Wars, fosters home for imaginary friends.
Sonic as well
15 years later
Same room as the last Indiana Jones review
What a way to make a sequel
Genius hiding the 2023 receding hairline with the Indy hat to make it look more like 2008.
how come all the recorded game footage is so shaky? moving side to side? Anyone else notice this? the footage of James is normal
