*** During the round, Jon comes to the discovery of the UsefulNotes/GameBoyColor port of the original game and decides to play it right after GTA Advance. Turns out, where the GBA port of GTA kicks ass, the GBC port ''sucks'' ass. Case in point, the game uses ''tank controls'' to move your character.

** The final game of the night is ''The Adventures of Batman and Robin'', a racing/driving combat game for the UsefulNotes/SegaCD where the cutscenes between each level are entirely comprised of footage from an unaired episode of ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries''. Around the halfway point of the game, Jon eventually gets fed up with the choppy framerate and unfair difficulty and uses a level skip code to skip past the Riddler's level just to see the cutscene after it. In the cutscene, the Riddler naturally accuses Batman of cheating, but given the circumstances, chat interprets this accusation as being directed more towards Jon than Batman.

*** Jon has fun changing the dragons' names ([[RunningGag except Salmando]]). An NPC tells him a number of popular choices for dragon names, ending with '[[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers the name of a girl you like]]'. When Jon finds the default name for the white dragon is "Molten", he promptly changes it to "[[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue Moltres]]", only for Jewker to ask "[[ComicallyMissingThePoint Is that the name of a girl you like]]?"

** ''VideoGame/BahamutLagoon'', oh boy. Despite being an RPG, the game manages to become a group favorite quite quickly due to a variety of odd quirks with the fan translation. Among other tidbits, there's Jon's sheer joy at the fact that [[InherentlyFunnyWords "Salmando"]] is the default name of the thunder dragon, the unusually quippy text options in scenes, and the fact that [[spoiler:one of the items in the game is ''[[https://clips.twitch.tv/ShakingSaltyBibimbapOSfrog A PORN MAGAZINE]]'']].

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


** During the next cookie, a licensed Wii game based on ''WesternAnimation/CaspersScareSchool'' pops up on the cookie; while it loses to a game that the co-comms agree is [[DudeNotFunny in very poor taste]], it manages to win the next cookie out of sympathy alone... and it turns out to be just as piss-poor as Jon anticipated. Some particular highlights includes the [[UncannyValley disturbingly stiff]] character models, one of the minigames involving [[RunningGag egg]] balancing of all things, and Jon's frustration at the fact that the minigame with the most amusing-sounding name is unlocked last.

*** After beating Grand Prix with Waluigi, Jon takes note of the fact that the credits play over footage of Waluigi driving through the sunset a-la ''Anime/LupinIIIGreenJacket''. Not only does Dan compare the scene to the opening of ''VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire'', which generates a surprising amount of fanart on its own, but someone in chat also [[https://clips.twitch.tv/AlertDirtyMagpieGingerPower jokes]] that it looks like Waluigi's mowing his lawn. Later, Camille sends Jon an edited version of the ''Ruby and Sapphire'' intro based around Dan's joke, which [[https://clips.twitch.tv/FaintEagerMartenTwitchRaid manages to catch Jon off-guard]] when it ends with a voice clip he legitimately had never heard before: Wesker shouting "nice scream, I love it!" (Actually a voice clip from ''VideoGame/SoulCaliburIV'', which Wesker's voice actor Creator/DCDouglas provided a custom male voice track for.)

** The amazing game known as ''Fox Hunt'' returns, and the good news is that it didn't crash where it did last time!

* Fortune Cookie: First Cookie of 2018, Last Stream Before [=MAGfest=] Edition
** Jon manages to start 2018 on a high note ''before the stream even begins''. To put a long story short, in the time between the last stream and the start of this one, Jon went out to a hockey game with Joscelyn and some of his other friends and decided to buy hot dogs at one point. Apparently Jon looked so silly holding the hot dogs that his friends had him recreate it so that Joscelyn could take a photo of it; Jon, knowing what they were planning, burst into laughter, leaving us with [[https://twitter.com/crushgirljos/status/947549701913505792 this]] result. Discord went ''insane'' over it, spending the next three days posting photoshops of it, all of which Jon highlighted during an intermission. It reached meme status so quickly that it even got its own [[https://twitter.com/game4brains/status/948081134306553857 fanart]].
* High Risk Fortune Cookie: Lady Luck's Revenge Edition [[note]]not to be confused with the Misfortune Cookie stream of the same name[[/note]]
** Pre-stream: Stan rallies chat to start posting pictures of people and objects in cardboard boxes with the [=#ProtonSoapBoxDerby=], in celebration of the announcement of Nintendo Labo. Jon [[HilarityEnsues reacts accordingly]].
--->'''Jon:''' ''[completely deadpan]'' "Also, I would like to ask, what the fuck happened on my Twitter feed? What the hell is the '[=#ProtonSoapBoxDerby=]'?"
** Jon got ''VideoGame/AdventuresOfDinoRiki'', and it was as terrible as he remembered. In particular, he struggles with the game's awful platforming sections, dying over and over on the first world - and then Ryan looks up info on the game and finds out that it apparently [[FromBadToWorse gets much more difficult]] on world 4.
--->'''Ryan:''' "World 4 is four stages [[CheckpointStarvation with no checkpoints]]."\\
'''Jon:''' "W-WHAT!? That is SO STUPID!"\\
'''Stan:''' "[[SarcasmMode This is a good game.]]"
** The cookie selecting ''Super Troll Islands'', and one of the first search results a co-comm found when looking for info was the Nightmare Fuel page for ''WebVideo/GameGrumps''.
*** Jon is actually shocked that there was a dearth of information about the game, like how many levels there are and strategy guides. He ends up asking the chat to look for info about the game.
** Jon rolls the next game; Ryan is hoping for a good game, but Stan and Jon tell him to never expect something good from the cookie. What does Jon roll?
--->'''Jon:''' ''[cracks up]'' "''[[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII Final Fantasy VIII]]''!"\\
'''Stan:''' "Oh my ''God...''"\\
'''Ryan:''' "Oh, okay. Cool! This is gonna be fun!"\\
'''Jon:''' ''[continues laughing]'' "We're doin' it! We're doin' it! [=RPGs=] are allowed, boys and girls!"
*** Jon proceeds to spend the entire time playing [[SidetrackedByTheGoldSaucer Triple Triad]] in an attempt to bankrupt himself.
** Jon got a scare when his Twitter account was locked due to a tweet violating Twitter's Terms of Service. The tweet in question was from '''2011'''.
* Fortune Cookie: [[WesternAnimation/CloneHigh STAMOS!!!]] Edition
** At one point Bagel jumps onto Jon's shoulders and one of the Co-coms compares it to a parrot on a pirate's shoulder. Cue the fanart of pirate Jon!
** Jon plays Hot Wheels: World Race and it turns out that Music/SmashMouth was involved in the game. [[https://clips.twitch.tv/TastyAffluentCatCopyThis?tt_medium=clips_embed&tt_content=player_title Including a playable Smash Mouth car.]] The commentary devolves into a discussion about the band in record time.
*** Among the various discussions about Smash Mouth during the game, one that particularly sticks out is the bizarre story of [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext the time the folks on Something Awful managed to essentially cyberbully the lead singer into eating a metric fuckton of eggs.]] At one point, Jon manages to pull up [[https://noisey.vice.com/en_us/article/6wnmbr/i-made-the-smash-mouth-guy-eat-a-shit-ton-of-eggs an article]] about the incident and reads it out, and it is ''glorious''.
* Fortune Cookie: Stopped Playing DBZ Fighterz for Some Reason Edition
** During ''Ninja Gaiden 3'' Jon tells a story of when he cosplayed a character from Baiten Kaitos and won an award. One of the Co-coms says "pics or it didn't happen" and one of the people watching the stream manages to find the old pics of Jon's cosplays and a pic of Jon back when he graduated college. This briefly results in "22-Year-Old Jon" overtaking "18-Year-Old Jon" as a meme.
** Related to the above, the [[ItMakesSenseInContext Pleather Gundam]].
** Jon plays ''[[WesternAnimation/RocketPower Rocket Power: Beach Bandits]]''.
*** There was another person also streaming the game called Mintbearycrunch.
** There are multiple donations from [[Wrestling/{{WWE}} Woahken]] VideoGame/CrashBandicoot making fun of Matt Hardy's character while merging it with the Crash Bandicoot "woah" meme.
** Jon plays ''VideoGame/HarvestMoon64'' and names his character "❤farmo", his farm "⭐Dudeo", and his dog "🐾🐾🐾~🐾&".
*** Before the game starts, [=TallManStan=] mentions grabbing a blanket and pillow, seemingly joking at the fact that they are playing a farming sim, which are typically boring to watch. Partway through the game, Jon and Myo realize that Stan has stopped responding, leading them to believe that he ''actually fell asleep.''
** Jon plays ''VideoGame/NeopetsTheDarkestFaerie'' and marvels at the fact that the game [[SugarWiki/NoProblemWithLicensedGames actually seems pretty decent.]] Also, his and the chat's reactions to coming across [=NPCs=] voiced by Creator/FredTatasciore and Creator/SteveBlum.
* High Risk Fortune Cookie: Democracy in Riot Edition
** The stream is raided ''five times'' during the first game alone, with the last two being mini-raids that happen simultaneously.
** The upper gif in the center of the intermission gif wall is of [[Franchise/TheLionKing Rafiki throwing baby Simba off Pride Rock.]] A donation later that night noted that it occasionally syncs up with its neighbor [[WesternAnimation/JemAndTheHolograms Jem getting smacked with a snowball hard enough to floor her]], painting a lovely image of Rafiki throwing Simba at Jem.
** The cookie pulls up ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}: Caught in the Act'' only for Jon and chat to reroll it because he beat it on stream last year. The next game that comes up? [[SarcasmMode The much better choice of]] ''[[VideoGame/DokaponKingdom Dokapon Journey]]'' for the Nintendo DS.
*** The game shows off TheComputerIsACheatingBastard, '''big time'''. Even on "[[NonindicativeName easy]]" difficulty. Even with only one AI.
*** The game proves to be quite the gong show for the human-controlled characters as well, with everyone, including the AI, dying at least once. Dan's character in particular manages to stay dead for the majority of the round.
*** At one point, Ryan fights and kills Jon's character and decides to steal his name, which lets him pick a replacement name for Jon. What name does he decide to give him? [[ButtMonkey "Medz."]]
** One of the gifs on the intermission wall is of [[Manga/SailorMoon Sailor Jupiter]] with [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Waluigi's]] face. Shortly after ''Dokapon'' and at the end of a Twitter showcase, one chat user decides to point out how [[MaleGaze a tiny bit of Jupiter's butt is visible under her skirt]].
** The final pull of the night is ''[[VideoGame/ClayFighter ClayFighter: Tournament Edition]]''. At the request of chat via a Strawpoll, Jon picks Blue Suede Goo and ends up actually doing pretty well as him, with the character's constant shouting of "hey, watch the hair man!" quickly striking a chord in chat, to the point where it becomes the raid message for the night. However, as anyone familiar with Jon knows, NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished, and the night very quickly turns into [[TraumaCongaLine one of the best worst train wrecks in ages.]]
*** Partway through the game, Jon comes up against [[ThatOneBoss Tiny]], who very quickly hands Jon's ass to him six ways to Sunday thanks to the game's obscene damage scaling mechanics. It takes a startling amount of tries for Jon to overcome him, only for the following opponents to be just as bad, if not worse... and one of those later opponents is ''[[HereWeGoAgain a rematch with Tiny]].'' Because of this, Ryan decides to pull up the tier list for the game, and promptly learns that Blue Suede Goo happens to be the lowest-ranked fighter on it. Jon appropriately decides to switch to the higher-ranked Blob at one point, but after some matches ends up going back to Blue Suede Goo anyways thanks to him being the only fighter Jon knows how to handle.
*** Once Jon reaches the final boss of the game, the appropriately-named [[PunnyNames N. Boss]], he immediately knows what kind of gong show to anticipate thanks to chat informing him that he's somehow worse than Tiny, only for N. Boss to blindside him anyways and destroy him within ''seconds''. Jon eventually manages to defeat N. Boss, at which point he learns that the guy has ''an insta-kill attack.''
*** After conquering that steaming train of nonstop bullshit, Jon decides to detox with some ''VideoGame/DragonBallFighterZ'', only for his copy of the [=Steam=] version to take a suspiciously long amount of time to load. He thinks nothing of it once the game boots up, until it suddenly locks up on the ''next'' loading screen. So he decides to try the Xbox One version instead... and it outright ''crashes'' on him, ''also during a loading screen.'' What's more, when Jon tries to show off the error message signifying the crash, his capture card decides to stop working. Jon, understandably quite pissed, quickly decides to go to intermission to vent about it, at which point '''''the stream itself goes down for apparently no reason.''''' And just to put the constipated poop pellet cherry on the shit sundae, once Jon manages to get stream back up, sorts everything out, and finally starts up the Xbox One version of ''[=FighterZ=]'', '''the Xbox One itself''' craps out on him. Jon sums up the night quite succinctly on Twitter:
--->'''Jon:''' "[[LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain Let's not speak of tonight.]]"
* Fortune Cookie: ...And Now, Videogames Edition
** The starting game of the night was ''Donkey Kong 3''... that took all of 6 minutes to beat because of how short it is. And it was put into #8 of the 64, to boot, due to him beating ''Donkey Kong'', and ''Donkey Kong Jr.''.
*** Jon also admitted that for the longest time, he thought the game was a bootleg due to scarcity, the protagonist being named Stanley, and the game in general.
*** Jon briefly pulls a LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain regarding the previous stream. He says that he's over it, but then notes his voice betrayed his words.
*** [[NamesTheSame Naturally]], [=TallManStan=] asks in chat if he's the protagonist.
*** In stage 4, Jon gets killed as soon as he picked up the powerup.
** After that, Jon gets a Cookie with ''Apocalypse: Starring Creator/BruceWillis'', and ''[[VideoGame/HatsuneMikuProjectDiva Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F]]'' (or as Jon likes to call it, "Project D-Vaff"). Needless to say, the two games locked horns with great intensity, leading to some rather fun crossover fanart, up to and including Rosie's drawing of Miku with a bazooka.
*** After going to Intermission, Jon lampshapes at it being the fastest he had to pull up the Intermission wall that isn't the result of something crashing.
*** Jon had an unusually hard time getting available co-coms due to them either tied up with work, doing their own streams, or watching ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'', with Solar joking that they were on strike. Jon joked he could have just done the stream by himself, then realized he ''should'' have done it as a way to avoid mod choices.
*** Solar then tells chat that he has a new cat. Named Loki. Everyone but Stan began saying it was a bad idea naming a cat after the Norse God of Mischief.
*** The first donation of the night read that he beat ''Battletoads'' and was looking for another game to kick his ass with, and picked Ninja Gaiden due to Jon, and gives him all the vitriol. Cue an incredulous Jon remarking the apparent double think.
** Jon plays ''Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures'', and wastes no time showing off [[https://clips.twitch.tv/StrongFaintSwallowYouDontSay how gigantic of an asshole]] Pac-Man can be when he's in a certain mood. This quickly turns sour in the best worst way possible when Jon accidentally gives Pac-Man manic depression ''and nearly softlocks himself''.
** ''Virtual-ON Oratorio Tangram'' appears on the cookie again.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oQRuZbYyog An egg video]] is played based on a commercial the Muppets put out for crumpets. Highlights include {{LetsPlay/Chuggaaconroy}}'s face being pasted onto Fozzie when he makes a {{pun}}, the facetious "translator's notes" ("TL Note: 'Crumpet' means 'egg' in British") and at the end when, after JustForFun/StatlerAndWaldorf make their standard riff, the video [[FreezeFrameEnding turns monochrome and zooms in on Kermit's face]], while a slowed down version of The Rainbow Connection plays and the infamous "God is dead" quote from Nietzsche's "The Madman" flashes on screen.
** A user named Stay_Hydrated_Bot comes to chat pointing out how much water Jon should've drank by then, and Jon isn't sure if it is a real bot or not. [[spoiler: It is. You can ACTUALLY send it to remind streamers to stay hydrated. One of the viewers checked and decided that it shouldn't be banned because it is an AWESOME bot and not like the normal bots on the channel. Though it was and the same viewer found out what stay_hydrated_bot was based off of: memes of speedruns of VideoGame/BaitenKaitos, specifically the 100% runs]]
*** Later, a deluge of less-awesome bots showed up at once and [[{{Troll}} started spamming intentionally inflammatory anti-Donald Trump messages in chat]] (something which Jon expresses confusion at, considering he's Canadian and still living in Calgary), prompting one of the mods to lock chat to sub-only mode to filter out the spam. Somebody quickly gifted Stay_Hydrated_Bot a sub to make sure it could still post in chat and remind Jon to stay hydrated.
** The stream goes down temporarily, which causes the bottom left Spider-Man gif on the Intermission wall and ''only'' that gif to freeze. Almost poetically, it depicts [[WesternAnimation/SpiderMan1967 Spider-Man standing in a room on fire.]]
** Jon plays Golf With Your Friends and [[https://clips.twitch.tv/KindZealousCrowStoneLightning one of the devs donates]].
*** This after GWYF caused the aforementioned stream downtime, ate up ''most'' of Jon's CPU due to poor optimization on his graphics card, cranked-to-max default settings, and several bizarre glitches that [[RunningGag only Jon could find]]. Little wonder why he opens up the donation apologizing.
* Fortune Cookie: Thrown To The Hounds Edition
** The first game of the night ends up being a car mechanic simulation game on Steam; Jon promptly enters full [[Series/TopGear Jeremy]] [[Series/TheGrandTour Clarkson]] mode, ripping damn near everything off of the car, dicking around with the various functions in the computer, overfilling the car with oil, and calling it a day. And then someone in chat sends Jon the most recent version of the game, in which it's possible to game over by doing ''exactly that.''
** One of the GIFS on the wall is [[LetsPlay/{{Chuggaaconroy}} Emile's]] [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite Hiker Dance]]
** [[BrickJoke Apparently Jon still has yet to find his missing Taiko Drumstick.]]
** During the next cookie, a licensed Wii game based on ''WesternAnimation/CaspersScareSchool'' pops up on the cookie; while it loses to a game that the co-comms agree is [[DudeNotFunny in very poor taste]], it manages to win the next cookie out of sympathy alone... and it turns out to be just as piss-poor as Jon anticipated. Some particular highlights includes the [[UncannyValley disturbingly stiff]] character models, one of the minigames involving [[RunningGag egg]] balancing of all things, and Jon's frustration at the fact that the minigame with the most amusing-sounding name is unlocked last.
** One of the games is ''VideoGame/DragonBallFighterZ'', already notorious for its constant connection issues. Things start off on a particular high note with a match between Jon and Jewker, in which Jewker gets disconnected in the middle of the match, allowing Jon to wail on his party nonstop. The best part? The game counted that as a win, prize Zeni and all!
*** Later, Jon's controller suddenly goes haywire on him when in the lobby, and eventually manages to glitch the game so badly that Jon can't even close out of it for a bit. Come the next game, Jon learns that ''his USB hub itself crapped out on him because of that glitch.''
** The final game of the night is a Genesis game based on ''Film/MightyMorphinPowerRangersTheMovie''; Jon manages to get quite a number of laughs out of it because of the fact that a startlingly high amount of levels are just flashbacks to the TV show, with hardly any of it actually being taken from the movie (while simultaneously being ''more'' faithful to the film than the SNES game).
*** Throughout the stream, Jon manages to get attacked ''three times'' by hordes of bots spamming "fake Americans" and other nationalistically-charged {{troll}} statements, with chat temporarily going into sub-only mode each time. The third time this happens is during the ''Power Rangers'' game, and once sub only mode gets switched off, [[MoodWhiplash Elliot promptly expresses disappointment]] that nobody in chat recited [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkpS2Sdu2io Rita Repulsa's "after 10,000 years I'm free!" line.]]
*** Rewinding back, Jon was suffering from a string of rerolls because he kept getting strategy games, getting annoyed quite quickly... only to roll up ''[[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor Superman 64]]''.
*** Crossing over with SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome, the very fact that the game managed to be on the exact same cookie as ''VideoGame/Superman64'' of all games... AND WON! It started in second place, then gained steady steam, as if chat wanted to keep the game played only within an [=LP=], then manages to overtake it and push for a 2% difference, preventing ''Superman 64'' from getting the 1% Pity Cookie slot next Cookie!
** After all was said and done, Jon then realized he didn't have a game for Game Clearing the following Monday, forcing him to go for Mod Choice Game Clearing. And guess what happened on Monday...ORBS!
* High Risk Fortune Cookie: Friday Edition
** After the... experience... that was the last stream, this stream starts off with ''[[VideoGame/PacMan Ms. Pac-Man: Maze Madness]]'' for the Nintendo 64. While the game turns out to be mostly uneventful, the unusually sultry "yeah" voice clip that occurs whenever Ms. Pac-Main gains an extra life manages to catch on with chat.
** Dan manages to return as a co-com even after taking so much shit over ''Orbs-3D''; he doesn't stay on for very long.
** ''VideoGame/BahamutLagoon'', oh boy. Despite being an RPG, the game manages to become a group favorite quite quickly due to a variety of odd quirks with the fan translation. Among other tidbits, there's Jon's sheer joy at the fact that [[InherentlyFunnyWords "Salmando"]] is the default name of the thunder dragon, the unusually quippy text options in scenes, and the fact that [[spoiler:one of the items in the game is ''[[https://clips.twitch.tv/ShakingSaltyBibimbapOSfrog A PORN MAGAZINE]]'']]. And this was from a translation that ''Tomato''[[labelnote:*]]the leader of the much-acclaimed ''VideoGame/Mother3'' fan translation[[/labelnote]] of all people worked on. Needless to say, fanartists [[https://twitter.com/roselii49/status/964724939843514368 grabbed this ball]] [[https://twitter.com/kupomatic/status/964732693106761728 and ran with it]] [[https://twitter.com/game4brains/status/964733714067533825 like no]] [[https://twitter.com/SpottedAlienMon/status/964744699079725056 tomorrow.]]
*** Even better is when Jon decides to feed one of his dragons [[spoiler:the porno mag]] and learns that, when used in-battle, it casts ''sleep magic'' of all things.
*** Jon has fun changing the dragons' names ([[RunningGag except Salmando]]). An NPC tells him a number of popular choices for dragon names, ending with '[[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers the name of a girl you like]]'. When Jon finds the default name for a fire dragon is "Molten", he promptly changes it to "[[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue Moltres]]", only for Jewker to ask "[[ComicallyMissingThePoint Is that the name of a girl you like]]?"
** One of the games pulled up on the cookie is ''[[VideoGame/ResidentEvil4 Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition]]''. While the game mostly treads old ground at this point, it manages to stand out due to it bearing the typical Wii motion control jank, leading to the rather interesting sights of Leon constantly making swimming motions and stabbing everything in plain sight.
*** Then there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apWYo8Z-t8U the scene right after the prologue]], featuring Leon reciting the SoBadItsGood line "Where's everyone going? Bingo?" after seeing a horde of malevolent villagers hobble into a church. Jon prepares himself to laugh once again at the sheer stupidity of the line, only for Khead to talk over it (in part due to the delay between what Jon sees in front of him and what co-coms see on-stream). Jon understandably gets quite pissed at this and is sent an audio recording of the line as compensation... only for [=MasterTimeThief=] to interrupt ''that''. It doesn't take long for chat to [[HistoryRepeats compare it to]] [[CallBack the Cranky Kong incident]] in ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountryReturns''.
* Fortune Cookie: Dangerous As Always Edition
** The first game pulled on cookie is ''VideoGame/KidsOnSite'', an FMV game for the Sega CD by Digital Pictures (of ''VideoGame/NightTrap'' fame). The game instantly catches Jon and chat's attention once he hears the description of it, and it manages to far surpass anyone's expectations by being [[RefugeInAudacity as unashamedly over-the top as possible.]] Among other things, everyone manages to take a liking to the amount of mayhem one can inflict on [[UnfortunateNames Nuts]], to the point where half of chat actively begins calling for his blood.
*** Afterwards, they look up Nuts' actor on [=IMDb=] and find out his only other acting credit is in a ''cheap 80's sex comedy'' called ''Stewardess School'', which also starred Creator/RobPaulsen, something that Jon sadly overlooked.
** The next game is ''Flying Nightmares'', a flight simulator for the [=3DO=]. While a good chunk of chat is initially salty about it beating out ''VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine'', they manage to get on-board very quickly from how janky it is; the fact that Jon starts the game off by [[https://clips.twitch.tv/WittyManlyWebCharlietheUnicorn?tt_medium=clips_embed&tt_content=player_title driving off the runway and into the ocean]] is pretty telling.
** The game right after ''Flying Nightmares'' is ''[[VideoGame/{{Pilotwings}} Pilotwings 64]]''; the game isn't as eventful as one would expect, but it still manages to feature a few highlights. In particular, there's the unusually suggestive-sounding "oh yeeeeah" Robin makes when picked, and [[https://clips.twitch.tv/InquisitiveAnimatedKumquatCeilingCat?tt_medium=clips_embed&tt_content=player_title the end result]] of Jon attempting to land the bird suit.
** The last game of the night is ''VideoGame/SpongebobSquarepantsBattleForBikiniBottom'', which, while mostly plain by Fortune Cookie standards, still manages to offer some entertainment in the form of Jon's constant snarking about the game's set design and [[UncannyValley poorly-aged graphics]], the game's already good writing, and the game's '''very''' unconvincing [[TheOtherDarrin substitute]] for Creator/ClancyBrown as Mr. Krabs.
*** At one point, Jon's controller somehow glitches out on him, disconnecting from the system (and consequently pausing the game) ''every time the rumble feature goes off,'' which is frequently. [[RunningGag Cue the barrage from chat saying "I've legitimately never seen this before" and "Only on a ProtonJon stream".]] And once the issue finally manages to resolve itself, Jon finds that [[SoBadItWasBetter he actually preferred it when the controller kept disconnecting.]]
* Fortune Cookie: How Weird Can We Go Edition
** The 3DS port of ''Metal Gear Solid 3'' wins a Cookie, only for the game's infamously long cutscenes to ensure that Jon is 20 minutes into his 30 minute play window before he even gets to play at all... briefly... and then a round of codecs intervenes. When he finally finishes those, his 30 minutes are up so his first real play action is to kill Snake.
** However, he then decides to play on when he finds that he can use the 3DS camera to make his own camouflage for Snake (with Raiden's head), and uses a photo he took of his stream showing his logo endlessly repeating into 'The Void'.
** During Super Monkey Ball Deluxe, Jon tells the story of when he fell asleep while playing one of the Gundam games, and somehow ended up beating several levels in his sleep.
* Fortune Cookie: In Defense of Eggs Edition
** While Jon himself was pretty on edge at the start due to unfortunate timing of the Splatfest and a particular blowup due to his BerserkButton getting pressed, fans knew immediately how to cheer him up; by spamming him with his new $25 alert which is an edited version of the ''Series/{{Thunderbirds}}'' intro countdown, which each ship having the number 5 instead of the classic "5, 4, 3, 2, 1!" countdown. He got so many of that donation that it actually '''broke''' the notification for a while! Jon and his co-coms found this hilarious.
--->'''Jewker:''' "Why do all of you have such a disposable income!?"
** All of the games played during this stream were Nintendo games, and two of them were Mario games. A rather monumental coincidence already, but what makes this even funnier is that this stream took place on March 10th, which Nintendo had dubbed [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros MAR10]] Day.
** Jon plays the Game Boy Advance NES Classics port of the original ''Super Mario Bros'', which at first seems like nothing memorable. However, while playing stage 1-2 he suddenly realizes that the much smaller screen size of the GBA compared to the NES's internal resolution results in noticeably compressed, OffModel sprites. The biggest offender happens to be Small Mario's sprite, in which his head is crushed into his torso, giving the appearance of him [[NoNeckChump not having a neck.]] Fans promptly sent in tons of fanart of no-neck Mario and other characters, with the results ranging from {{gonk}}y to outright NightmareFuel.
** At the urging of a chat member who recently had a bad experience with this person, Jon tells the story of [=AbdallahSmash=], a Youtube Let's Player with a substantial case of SmallNameBigEgo, who years ago was a contestant on Thrown Controllers. Upon stepping up to the mic, he introduced himself by plugging his Youtube channel and then handing a business card for said channel to Emile. When Jon tried to signal him to get a move on with the game, Abdallah then assumed that ''Jon also wanted a business card.'' LaserGuidedKarma then hit this guy in quite a few ways, most of which Jon admits were intentionally invoked by him. First off, after the panel, Jon showed the business card he was given to the guys behind {{WebVideo/Retsupurae}}, making him a prime target for them. Second, during the panel, Abdallah rolled a video game challenge where he had to get the first Chaos Emerald in [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1 Sonic 1.]] They meant to have the contestant start in the Special Stage, but accidentally forgot to create a save state for it. Instead of letting Abdallah roll a different challenge, Jon decided to give him the extra stipulation of having to clear Green Hill Zone Act 1 with 50 rings, which he failed at due to screwing around too much.
* Fortune Cookie: Small Steps To Big Things Edition
** The stream starts off with a rather amusing instance of MoodWhiplash when Jon gets both a 5 Alert and a raid in quick succession, right when he's attempting to discuss the issues that led him to take the week off; Jon and chat alike can't help but laugh at the ContrivedCoincidence.
** During ''Splatoon 2'' Jon and the co-comms have a discussion on how the Switch supports the Wii U adapter that allows the use of nonstandard controllers, with Jon joking that someone will try to play ''Dark Souls'' with the Donkey Konga bongo controller. Later the chat informs him that someone played ''Overwatch'' with a microwave oven.
** At one point, the commentators got into a discussion about how many channels on Twitch have emotes of {{LetsPlay/Chuggaaconroy}}. They came up with 4. (Jon, {{LetsPlay/Lucahjin}}, Marilland and LetsPlay/NintendoCapriSun)
** During ''VideoGame/WonderBoyIIITheDragonsTrap'', the topic of the ''Series/{{Roseanne}}'' revival [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3zdaYpwjxw&t=1h40m54s comes up]]. Jon promptly expresses his bewilderment at the fact, given the series's rather infamous final season, in which the whole series gets DenserAndWackier after Roseanne wins the lottery, [[GainaxEnding except she never did and just made that all up]] [[SuddenDownerEnding to cope with Dan's death from a heart attack.]] Jon then mentions how the revival plans to handle this: [[spoiler:Roseanne [[AllJustADream wakes up in bed]], turns to Dan, [[{{Retcon}} who's alive and well]], and [[LampshadeHanging tells him]] she thought he was ''dead'', prompting Dan to [[{{Handwaving}} complain that people keep thinking he's dead]]]], which sends Tom and MTT into utter hysterics.
--->'''Jon:''' "Yo, what I'm saying is TheNineties were fucking weird, dude."
** Jon accidentally sets off the Fibbage music when he has problems with switching his camera views to show a video, and refers to it as the 'fixing music'. This keeps popping up again and again as a RunningGag throughout the stream, with him playing it (accidentally or on purpose) every time a camera change goes wrong.
* Fortune Cookie: Happy Easter Edition
** This stream marks the debut of a glorious new joke alert: [[VideoGame/FZero Captain Falcon]] failing the standard slot machine and shouting one of his Star-KO groans from ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' before the animation goes monochrome and zooms in to the tune of [[Series/TheIncredibleHulk1977 "The Lonely Man"]]. Chat wastes no time in spamming the fuck out of it for the duration of the stream.
** Considering this stream took place on the eve of [[AprilFoolsDay April Fools]], it makes sense that this stream was filled to the brim with tech issues, miscellaneous mess-ups, and even '''''Twitch itself dying''''' for a moment. Fittingly, Jon seemed to be the only one not surprised by this.
--->'''Jon''': "The real April Fools would be when everything goes right for once."
** Jon gets raided ''five times'' over the course of the first game and intermission. After the final set of countermeasures, Jon forgets to turn his mic back on, leaving the commentary is muted through the entire first intermission-- including the introduction of the co-commentators and the reading of donations. After realizing that they were muted the whole time, Jon sheepishly moves on to the next game.
** The second game of the night is ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoAdvance''. Everyone's astonishment that a game like ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAuto'' could even be playable on the system is amusing enough, but what particularly highlights the round is Jon [[https://clips.twitch.tv/ClumsyExcitedYakinikuNotLikeThis accidentally]] [[DrivesLikeCrazy driving into]] ''[[EpicFail the ocean]]'' because he was too busy looking at a raid.
*** During the round, Jon comes to the discovery of the UsefulNotes/GameBoyColor port of the original game and decides to play it right after GTA Advance. Turns out, where the GBA port of GTA kicks ass, the GBC port ''sucks'' ass. Case in point, the game uses ''tank controls'' to move your character.
** Jon reading through the computer opponent names for ''Virtual Pool 64''. Every. Single. One. Is a pun, verging into "[[http://mst3k.wikia.com/wiki/Dave_Ryder The Many Nicknames of Dave Ryder]]" territory, as chat was apt to compare it to. Particular mention goes to how Jon, the co-comms and the chat all simultaneously did a 180 on their opinion of the game ''purely because of all the opponent names''.
** Midway through the stream, Jon's Discord mods decided that it would be a brilliant idea to change their names and icons to various joke-misnomers, much to Jon's consternation. [[UpToEleven Then most of the normal users start changing their names and icons to Medz's.]]
** The chat somehow managed to get both ''[[VideoGame/CrazyTaxi Crazy Taxi 2]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/DigimonRumbleArena Digimon All-Stars Arena]]'' at a perfect [[https://clips.twitch.tv/EnthusiasticMagnificentFungusPastaThat vote-by-vote tie]] on the Strawpoll. Logically, Jon came to the conclusion that the only reasonable course of action was to [[https://clips.twitch.tv/GentleTenaciousSageHeyGuys play both games]] '''at the same time'''. [[HilarityEnsues This goes about as well as you'd expect.]]
** For the final game of the night, after the madness that occurred with two games, Jon pulls out the big reveal: [[spoiler:April Fools! It's Misfortune Cookie time!]]
*** Insult to injury for the chat? Multiple. [[spoiler:He announces this '''after''' ''Resident Evil 5'' already hit about 30% of the votes, that he had been planning this for ''months'', and that ''[=RE5=]'' even showed up at all to bait it was an utter fluke.]]
*** And the punchline? [[spoiler:The cookie ''gets a three-way 11% tie'', leaving Jon utterly flabbergasted. ''VideoGame/{{Darkwatch}}'' ended up winning.]]
* Fortune Cookie: Of Course Everything Broke While I Was Away Edition
** Jon hits the ground running by showing off ''Pizza Titan Ultra'' about a week or two early due to winning a copy at PAX and just loves how corny and absurd the concept is, which can quickly be summed up as "''Crazy Taxi'' meets pizza delivery and mechs".
*** The last story mission he shows off takes the cake though, with Jon and Twitch chat losing their collective shit: [[spoiler: a LawyerFriendlyCameo of VideoGame/ParappaTheRapper]].
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jD9j8pt_eiQ This]] piano rendition of the raid countermeasures video, complete with [[RunningGag Sad Falcon]] at the end.
** While it'd need to be trimmed down a bit for Jon to actually use it, the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3AxzzSZ3Hs&t=14447s Thundermeasures are WAH]] raid countermeasures video.
** The stream title ended up being prophetic, as his Retron 5 ends up ''dying'' when he goes to start playing ''Base Wars''.
*** A quick note on the concept behind ''Base Wars'' itself: it's baseball, but with cyborg players that can and will ''destroy each other'' if a force-out or put-out happens.
* Fortune Cookie: Merry Frogmas Everyone! Edition
** Jon gets raided [[UpToEleven EIGHT TIMES IN 1.5 HOURS]]. One chat user even started a timer between raids.
--->[=SerenaYvonneGabena=]: Three minutes =D
*** That being said, about half of them were mini raids, to the point Jon put his foot down when there was difficulties authenticating several of them and demanded they do the Raid command to prevent potential fake raids getting the video.
** ''{{VideoGame/Worms}} Armageddon'' pops up on the cookie and wins by a vast majority. HilarityEnsues.
*** Particularly funny was when the mods try to set up a [[RunningGag Kermit's Sandwich]]-themed map. It took two attempts, both hilarious in their own right.
*** On that note, both maps feature an EasterEgg of [[NeverLiveItDown 18-Year-Old Jon]] hidden in the corner.
** [[https://clips.twitch.tv/CrowdedBumblingSoybeanFreakinStinkin Dalton's Magnum Opus]].
** [[https://clips.twitch.tv/BoredInterestingLeopardUnSane The Countermeasures got]] [[Memes/TheSimpsons the dud.]]
* High Risk Fortune Cookie: "What'll It Be Tonight?" Edition
** When Jon gets to the cookie for the second game of the night, he mentions how there are games that will be autovetoed: games that are rhythm-based and games that will mute the VOD. The cookie pulls ''VideoGame/GuitarHero 5'' [[TemptingFate after the explanation]], to Jon's chagrin, forcing him to veto it.
** After Jon tells Tom that he can do mod choices for Jon's game clearing streams, he starts going through Jon's backloggery to figure out what to choose. Some games that Tom notes are marked as unbeaten prompt confusion from Jon, in particular ''Turtles in Time''. Then Tom realizes [[EpicFail he's actually been looking at his]] ''[[EpicFail own]]'' [[EpicFail backloggery the entire time]].
** The final game of the night is a ''Series/{{Jeopardy}}''/''Series/WheelOfFortune'' combo pack for the [=PS4=]; while the game turns out to be relatively tame (at least by [[OverlyNarrowSuperlative Jon-playing-Wheel-of-Fortune standards]]), it does manage to garner a good amount of laughs when a trivia point on the first loading screen displays ''[[EpicFail its coding address]]'' instead of the actual trivia. The phrase "#Trivia_Title_52" quickly becomes the raid message for the night.
* Fortune Cookie: Last Cookie Before TRG Colosseum Charity Marathon Edition
** The Game Sharks challenge is the first played. Let's just say it isn't the BEST game...
** Ninja Gaiden 2 has a character who looks eerily similar to Duke Nukem. Cue the next game being picked being the ORIGINAL Duke Nukem game.
** HAME OF FAME BABY!
** Jon dying to the same Slime in Zelda 2 ''three times'', prompting a fake stream ending.
** The final game of the night is ''Quarterback Attack'', a FullMotionVideo football game that ends depicting the sport in a [[https://clips.twitch.tv/NimbleWildGazelleShadyLulu very interesting way.]]
* Fortune Cookie: Home For an ENTIRE WEEK! Edition
** In a somewhat milder variant of the "State of..." and "ONE MOTHERFUCKING DOLLAR" incidents from streams past, this stream sees Jon constantly hounded by $100+ donations under an increasingly ridiculous cavalcade of donor names.
** While playing a round of ''VideoGame/{{Pikmin}}'', Jon decides to rattle off a bunch of stories from the previous weekend's TRG charity marathon, ranging from the flippant to the downright terrifying. One memorable story consists of him describing how the whole affair with the lamp during days two and three had been a worked show from the start, with a whole whodunit subplot being planned out; however, things apparently went off the rails pretty quickly thanks to Tom's [[EnsembleDarkhorse "Lord Donator"]] character being made up by him ''[[ThrowItIn on the spot]]'', and solely because [[ContrivedCoincidence he happened to come downstairs in his robe]] to check out what was going on in the living room.
*** Related to the above story is Jon's admission that the only reason why Josh was blamed for the lamp's disappearance on day 2 was because [[DisproportionateRetribution he slept in too late.]]
** The final game of the night is ''The Hurricane of the Varstray -Collateral hazard-'', a Japanese ShootEmUp game on Steam that quickly strikes a chord with chat thanks to its SoBadItsGood TranslationTrainWreck. Jon particularly falls in love with the exaggerated rivalry between the pilot he picked (Miho) and the Russian pilot Tatiana, which includes such gems as Miho shouting "you bitch!" after [[ACupAngst the much larger-breasted Tatiana asks her what her cup size is]] out of the blue, and Miho frequently calling Tatiana a "[[InherentlyFunnyWords dickweed]]". The game's eccentric writing ends up being so funny to Jon that he devotes ''the entire second half of the stream'' to completing Miho's story mode.
*** On the character selection screen, Jon and co-comms joke about Tatiana's facial expression making her look slightly drunk. They were absolutely right: her main character trait is being a VodkaDrunkenski. Jon even refers to her as such on one occasion.
*** One person in chat points out that the pilot [[https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/items/416380/252e7d527a7895bdeda9b01c8ea1cd5fd08ee4a0.jpg Wilma Thoreau]] looks like RuleSixtyThree Jon. This leads another user to make [[https://twitter.com/game4brains/status/994472761589366785 their best attempt]] at ''actual'' Rule 63 art of Jon, which they outright admit is just a "lame-ass knockoff" of [[Manga/{{Nichijou}} Mai Minakami]].
* Fortune Cookie: Gone for 2 ENTIRE WEEKS! Edition
** The return of Dead or Alive Extreme 2
* Fortune Cookie: "Only Desynched By 9 Minutes" Edition
** Jon gets a video egg made in ''VideoGame/GarrysMod'' featuring Wesker imitating Ganon from ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames Link: The Faces of Evil]]'', with [[NightmareFace his face stretched to nightmarish proportions]] in order to resemble Ganon's, which Jon finds hilarious. Jon pauses the video when it zooms into Wesker's face and leaves it up between games in place of the intermission screen, even moving the screen around to make Wesker "dance". All of this leading to the chat, jokingly, trying to impeach Jon out of his channel. He does it again later, [[https://clips.twitch.tv/CrackyEsteemedClipzNotLikeThis this time with music!]]
*** This version of Wesker was dubbed "Wesk" (after the title of a ''different'' egg video) by Jon and chat, and rapidly became a meme, so much so that [[AscendedMeme there was]] ''[[AscendedMeme an emote]]'' [[AscendedMeme made of it within an hour.]] It gets even better when Jon realizes that the artist accidentally tweeted it out to Jon's ''old'' Twitter account, [=@ProtonJon=], instead of his current one, [[SpellMyNameWithAnS @Proton_Jon]].
** ''VideoGame/TheDogIsland'' returns on the cookie. Which means the GLORIOUS return of Trucknuts [=McFucknuts=]! Jon at first doesn't remember this lovely name and [[https://clips.twitch.tv/ExcitedHomelyPeachPeteZaroll this is his reaction once he does]].
** An egg is submitted of [[https://clips.twitch.tv/PricklyGleamingMochaChocolateRain Camile rapping]] the lyrics of [[RunningGag "The Muppets Party Cruise Rap"]] over the instrumentals to [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure "Unknown from M.E."]]
** This conversation from Jon and Camille during the last Strawpoll of the night:
--->'''Cammy:''' "Eh, boobs and bondage, not gonna work."\\
'''Jon:''' [[ItMakesSenseInContext "No, you should have reminded me about the boobs and bondage before]] ''[[ItMakesSenseInContext beans]]'' [[ItMakesSenseInContext happened. Clearly, beans are MUCH more interesting."]]
* Fortune Cookie: Burning Down Everything Edition
** After Jon spent the last week fixing tech issues on his new computer, a Windows 10 update messed everything up again. So how does Jon open the stream?
--->'''Jon:''' ''[HUGE sigh]'' "God dammit. Fuck."
** When co-comms join for the second game, Jon [[ItMakesSenseInContext introduces himself as though he's a co-comm]].
** The amazing game known as ''Fox Hunt'' returns, and the good news is that it didn't crash where it did last time! The bad news is that the level right after, the Hospital, is a maze from hell with multiple floors, no real sense of where you have to go, and cutscenes that honestly [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar should have been rated beforehand.]] It takes Jon nearly '''20 MINUTES''' to get out of!
** The RunningGag of the co-comms explaining away every bit of weirdness in ''Fox Hunt'' with "Hey, it's California, y'know?"
** The final game of the night is ''VideoGame/HeyYouPikachu''; while being mostly mundane on its own due to its nature as a sim game, Jon manages to get a lot of fun out of [[RonTheDeathEater playing up Pikachu as a massive jackass]] for all it's worth and then some.
* Fortune Cookie: No Travel For A Month Edition
** Continuing the trend from last episode, there were a lot of remixes of The Muppets Party Cruse, including one that used The Lonely Man and one that ran the lyrics through various text-to-speech voices.
** When Jon goes to the third cookie of the night, what's the first game that pops up? ''VideoGame/Action52'' for the UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis.
--->'''Jon:''' "Good night, everybody!" ''[Fake stream ending]''
*** The kicker? After ''[[VideoGame/PokkenTournament Pokken Tournament DX]]'' pulls a surprise win, Jon admits he would've preferred Action 52 because he's ''terrible'' at Pokken Tournament, as he proceeds to show off.
* Fortune Cookie: Bad At Sports Edition
** Jon starts off with ''[[VideoGame/MarioTennis Mario Tennis Aces]]'', quickly showing off the start of story mode, which is a good thing, since not only does it give a crash course on the game's new mechanics, but it also features the start of a downright '''insane''' ExcusePlot with an odd number of similarities to ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar''.
*** During one match, Jon [[https://clips.twitch.tv/CoweringWildSardineSeemsGood attempts]] to show off what he describes as "Waluigi's most powerful skill", only to [[EpicFail completely miss the ball altogether]]. Jon immediately plays the "end of stream" clip without a second thought.
** While ''VideoGame/MegaMan2'' proves to be rather passe on its own, Jon still manages to have fun looking through the extras included in the ''Legacy Collection'' (via which he is playing the game), with the concept art for some of the scrapped Robot Masters eliciting a sensible chuckle or two. At one point, Jon declares these extras to be better than the actual game.
** Jon plays 3-player ''Wheel of Fortune'' with the co-comms and does his occasional RunningGag of misinterpreting the special prize cutscenes, in this case for a trip to Las Vegas:
--->'''Jon''': "What's our prize? IT'S A BUNCH OF LIGHTS!" ''(Photo of a casino)'' "It's A BUILDING!" ''("$4,450" appears over the photo)'' "You too can walk inside a building for four thousand four hundred and fifty dollars!"
** Jon gets salty over the course of the game due to co-comm [[spoiler:Taki]]'s habit of randomly picking rare English letters, yet still doing better than Jon himself. This culminates in that player winning, after the random letters he picked for the final puzzle [[ContrivedCoincidence turn out to make the answer obvious]]. Jon then, of course, interprets the final prize cutscene literally:
--->'''Jon''': "You won... PARIS!"\\
'''Dan''': "You can go visit Camille!"\\
'''Jon''': "You bungee jump off a bridge to your death! ...twice, apparently? I guess it's a flashback!"\\
'''Dan (impersonating Creator/WillSmith)''': "[[Series/TheFreshPrinceOfBelAir I ain't no bungee expert, but I don't think you're meant to bounce off them rocks like that.]]"
** One can find quite a bit of amusement in the sheer fact that Jon had to veto ''Tabletop Simulator'' for being '''too boring.'''
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaMMLy10ets Xilehnoc submits a video]] of Wesker pitching Tier 2 subs for Jon's channel. At one point in the video, [[Series/TheIncredibleHulk1977 the Lonely Man theme]] [[RunningGag plays,]] but the real kicker is that as Jon's playing it, someone sets off the Sad Falcon donation alert with ''near perfect timing'', causing Xilehnoc to go ballistic in the chat because no one could tell he'd already had that idea.
* Subscriber's Fortune Cookie: More Control of Fate Than Usual Edition
** The first cookie of the night's winner is ''The Game Of Life - Spongebob Squarepants Edition'' for the PC by a landslide, only for Jon to realize that the game's install media is a CD and his new computer ''does not have an optical drive''. Later, he mentions a discussion in the mod room where they were lamenting on telling Jon not to have the drive installed because "how often do you use the CD drive?" The answer to that question? ''Three times in the span of a decade!'' It gets replaced by ''[[VideoGame/ShovelKnight Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment]]'', [[CallBack which won just as hard.]]
** Jon mentions that his nephews have taken an interest in ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' (specifically the ''[[Series/PowerRangersNinjaSteel Ninja Steel]]'' series). When one of the chat members mentions that the Ninja Series "is awful", Jon feels the need to clarify that '''[[https://clips.twitch.tv/TardySuaveJuiceLeeroyJenkins they're only four]]'''. This leads into a rant about how kids that young don't really care about the quality of the show and takes on a [[https://clips.twitch.tv/SincereHorriblePorpoiseTTours nasally voice]] to show how he WOULD sound if he talked like that to them.
*** In the midst of this, Jon [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKviSkRSYRA&t=3883s sarcastically mentions]] ''Series/BreakingBad'' as an example of the high-quality television the chat [[TemptingFate clearly wants his nephews watching instead...]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKviSkRSYRA&t=5080s and]] [[https://twitter.com/Sephiroth1204/status/1014000176288141312 his]] [[https://twitter.com/Fluttershylicio/status/1013999969265733632 fans]] [[https://twitter.com/ThePlatinumangl/status/1014006221169311744 went]] ''[[https://twitter.com/Markrrom/status/1014009583189331968 nuts]]''. Jon himself found his own mental image so funny that he started {{Corpsing}} immediately and the chat's contributions just keep him [[LaughThemselvesSick Laughing Himself Sick]] for pretty much the rest of the night.
--->'''Commenter''': "So you're showing your sister these, right?"\\
'''Jon''': "Fuck no."
** Jon keeps having problems with [=XSplit=] (software he uses to stream) freezing up when he changes cameras. At one point he starts yelling at [=XSplit=], only for his [=X=]''[=box=]'' to hear him and turn on, frustrating Jon even more.
*** On the subject of [=XSplit=], it freezes again at the end of the stream, leaving Jon dejected that he isn't able to end the stream showing the raid target or using the End Stream clip. When he attempts to forcibly close [=XSplit=], the End Stream clip suddenly plays, much to his chagrin.
--->'''Jon''': "Robocop, I hate you so much right now."
** On the second cookie, one of the co-comms suggested number 2. The user assigned to that number? Jon himself. [[ThrowItIn He allows it]].
*** Jon's choice (from years ago, when he just entered a game to test the spreadsheet, which won from the hilarity of it) was ''Ninja Gaiden Black''. He uses past save files, over a decade old from when his younger self was extremely good at the game, to show off various parts of the game, such as the insane hardest difficulty. Later, he shows off the Alma boss fight, gets damaged, and opens his inventory...to find he has no healing items.
--->'''Jon:''' "Past Jon, what the fuck?!"
** Jon manages to accidentally (temporarily) [[https://youtu.be/OKviSkRSYRA?t=3h57m48s break his chair when the lever slips,]] tipping him forward onto his desk--as he's trying to explain this to chat, Lucahjin pops up behind him and unintentionally gives him a JumpScare.
** The final game of the night is ''Tony Hawk's Underground'', which means the glorious return of Dr Smack Daddy Smurf. Highlights include him jumping over a helicopter while doing a sick trick, and Jon putting him into story mode cutscenes where he gets betrayed by an asshole named Eric--which prompts all the Erics in chat to get offended by association and deny his kinship with them.
* Fortune Cookie: Internal Screaming Edition
** Jon starts the night off with ''VideoGame/ZoneOfTheEnders'', a mecha game that Jon cannot stop comparing to ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' simply because of Leo's striking similarities to Shinji in how they act to the point where Leo doesn't want to pilot the mech for similar reasons to Shinji. The donations write themselves, honestly.
--->'''Jon''': "Shinji donates and it just says ''[Screams]''."
** A quick CallBack from the last cookie stream happens when Jon shows off his desktop background; which is a character from a ''Franchise/{{Power Ranger|s}}''-styled book he's currently writing.
--->'''[=MasterTimeThief=]''': "So, what would you say is the draw over this story over something like, say ''Breaking Bad''?"\\
'''Jon''': ''[Immediately breaks out laughing]'' "Fuck you."
** [[https://clips.twitch.tv/AmazingBlatantJackalFrankerZ Someone sends in]] a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46kckTorUZk Japanese ad for a beer commercial]] that mimics the Thunderbirds countdown with 9 repeating, similar to Jon's 5. Jon notes that they didn't do the bit right, as there were only '''4''' nines.
** Somehow, ''Sesame Street 123'' for the NES manages to stay in the Cookie ''three times'' thanks to it repeatedly falling under the 1% rule. It eventually goes UpToEleven when Jon realizes that he's nearing the end of the stream, meaning ''the game will be on the next Fortune Cookie''.
** While playing ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil4'', Jon asks for his co-coms to be quiet, so he'll be able to hear a line from Leon. He jokes that he's [[TemptingFate expecting someone to donate during it]]. And just as the line happens, someone donates and perfectly covers up the line.
--->'''Jon:''' "Son of a bitch! I called it!"
** The final game of the night is an old NES version of ''Wheel of Fortune'' with particularly goofy avatars. HilarityEnsues when Jon is reminded that one of the co-comms, [=MegaGWolf=], is British and the show hasn't aired in Britain since 2001, meaning he has no idea what's going on.
* High Risk Fortune Cookie: "Wait, I Own That?" Edition
** The first game of the night is ''Mad Dash Racing''. It's... not good.
--->'''[=DanTheEnigma=]''': "So how was VideoGame/{{Bad Rats|TheRatsRevenge}} the runner?"
** ''Krazy Kreatures'' is worth noting just from [[https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/6f4AAOSwIWtZzqBW/s-l1600.jpg the boxart]] alone. Everyone was freaked out by it at first and expected the game to be a weird NES horror game, [[MoodWhiplash but it turns out to just be a simple puzzle game.]]
** ''VideoGame/{{Tetris}} Ultimate'' shows up on the cookie. Gex asks [[https://clips.twitch.tv/StrongSolidLasagnaANELE this question]].
--->'''Gex:''' "Would ''Tetris'' be considered a puzzle game?"\\
'''Jon:''' "...Did-Did you actually just ask that question? Did you actually just ask 'Is ''Tetris'' considered a puzzle game?' ''Tetris.''"\\
'''Gex:''' "I dunno..."\\
'''Jon:''' "The game that basically launched the goddamn genre."\\
'''Dan:''' "[[SarcasmMode Hmmmmmmm!]]"\\
'''Gex:''' "Hey, some people don't consider it a--''(unintelligible)''"\\
'''Jon:''' "'''''Tetris.'''''"\\
'''Dan:''' "Well, they're ''wrong,'' Gex!"\\
'''Gex:''' "[[DiggingYourselfDeeper It's an interesting argument...]]"\\
'''Jon:''' "'''''TETRIS.'''''"\\
'''Dan:''' "No, it... What argument is there?!"\\
''(Gex [[KnowWhenToFoldEm doesn't respond]])''\\
'''Dan:''' "EXACTLY!"\\
'''Jon:''' "Sorry, Gex, there's literally no argument. ''Tetris'' is a puzzle game."\\
'''Gex:''' "Like I said, I've heard some people argue--"\\
'''Dan:''' "WELL, THEY'RE ''WRONG!''"\\
'''Jon:''' "Who the [[PrecisionFStrike fuck]] argues that ''Tetris'' isn't a puzzle game? ''Why'' are they arguing it?"
*** Jon asks what the person's actual argument was. Gex's answer?
---->'''Gex:''' "Because technically, um... there's really no thought process into it or something?"\\
'''Jon:''' "WHAT?? No thought process in ''TETRIS''??"
*** Gex admits the person who made that argument was probably high at the time.
*** Once again seeing an opportunity to meme, [[https://twitter.com/TheSmashToons/status/1017282871441047553 Jon's fans]] [[https://twitter.com/McJohnson88/status/1017285814496063489 didn't waste]] [[https://twitter.com/BrandoDracobirn/status/1017285604650856449 the chance]].
** A viewer sends in an egg based on the ''WesternAnimation/ActionMan2000'' theme song, after Jon mentioned it (and showed a clip from it) in the previous stream. Jon is impressed and amused, and continues to play it multiple times through the night.
** For the last game of the night, Jon rolls ''VideoGame/BeyondTwoSouls'' on the cookie. Chat immediately calls for him to veto it due to it being considered one of the worst games created by David Cage, an [[BrokenBase already controversial]] game developer. Jon briefly ponders if people are aware of the usual content of his streams, but decides to put it up to a Strawpoll vote, and ''two-thirds of the votes'' are for him to veto the game. As he prepares to reroll the cookie, a co-comm mentions that it'd be hilarious if Jon rolls ''VideoGame/HeavyRain'' or a game that's even worse. What game does Jon roll and end up actually playing? [[spoiler: ''VideoGame/Bayonetta2!'']]
* Fortune Cookie: Burning Bad Luck Edition
** The stream starts off strong when a viewer sends an edited version of [[OverusedRunningGag the Party Cruise theme]] [[MemeticMutation that skips every other beat.]] While the resulting cacaphony is amusing on its own, Jon listens to the version that skip every other ''other'' beat, and breaks into laughter and latches onto the clapping section when Kermit says "--good. --like it" in a surprisingly deadpan manner thanks to the respective lines' emphasis being on the words that were cut out. He finds this so amusing it becomes the raid message for the night and eggs for it are made within a handful of minutes.
** ''Sesame Street 123'', the 1% holdover ''several times over'' from the previous stream, wins the first cookie of the night. The first half of it (Grover's Astro Counters) starts as you expect, but what really takes the cake is Ernie's Matching Magic, in which you match shapes. At one point, Jon decides to pick the mode that the game describes as the "HARDEST MODE OF ALL", and finds that it's literally just a disgustingly drawn-out version of the shape-matching game where the player completes pictures by matching the appropriate shapes. That's not the funny part. The funny part is when Jon receives a tweet claiming that he was "boring [him] to death", and then prolonging the round ''out of spite''.
** Co-comm Taki then suggests another edutainment game, ''Pajama Sam 2'', just to troll the chat. Jon rolls the cookie for the first random game...and it's ''another edutainment game''. Jon points out to the chat that at least this means the joke vote will be split. Of course, despite all the people complaining about the last game, the chat proceeds to vote in ''Pajama Sam 2'' over ''Professor Layton'' and the other edutainment game comes a strong third in the poll.
** During one intermission, Jon shows off an animation loop that Ryan's been working on for his own pre-stream screen: [[VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles2 Poppi α]] [[INeedAFreakingDrink resignedly swigging down an entire glass of Jack Daniel's in one gulp.]]
** During a round of the original ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'', Jon decides to check out the various character bios and promptly gets caught off-guard at the reminder that there was only [[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue one]] ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' game at the time of ''Smash 64''[='s=] release.
* Fortune Cookie: Happy Birthday Waluigi Edition
** The intermission wall for the stream not only contains Waluigi gifs to celebrate the anniversary of Waluigi's first appearance, but also adopts his theme from ''VideoGame/MarioStrikersCharged'', banjos and all. He even uses the music for raid countermeasures in place of the actual countermeasures audio.
** Jon completes the Fire Cup on ''Mario Strikers Charged'', and notes the headline: "Bowser Jr. Robbed!" He jokes that someone would photoshop a money bag in Waluigi's hand. [[https://twitter.com/NeokingStreams/status/1020867590107934725 The fans]] [[https://twitter.com/_skerpentine_/status/1020867823713816576 delivered]] [[https://twitter.com/ThManiacalgamer/status/1020869694729990144 with that,]] [[https://twitter.com/AzzyNY/status/1020871094121705473 and then some]].
** The intermission between ''Shadows of the Damned'' and ''Mega Man X Command Mission'' features a lengthy improvised dialogue between Tom's drive-thru worker voice and Jon's impression of Waluigi during a hurricane. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H33bxWCwdAM Words cannot do it justice, but animation can.]]
** What turns out to be the last cookie of the night features an EscalatingPunchline of more and more terrible games, including what Jon describes as "[[OverlyNarrowSuperlative the worst of the CDi Zeldas]]" and ''Deadly Towers''. He is resigned to having to play an awful game, only for Tom to give him mercy by giving ''Yakuza Zero'' as his suggestion, and (much to Jon's surprise) [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments the Chat actually votes for it to spare him]]. Jon spends the rest of the stream gushing about how much he loves the game. He wonders about the possibility of playing more of it on another stream, only for (a few days later) [[ContrivedCoincidence Sega to contact him asking him to do a sponsored stream of it for the PC version launch]].
* Fortune Cookie: Onwards to [=ConBravo=] Edition
** A RunningGag somehow starts that Jewker is actually a Gamecube - which the chat runs with, and adds to an existing joke from a previous stream that the other co-comm, Myo, is an ant. Specifically an Ant Cop.
** A user who submitted an egg sound the previous stream complained that Jon stopped before the best part, so for the first intermission, Jon decides to play it. [[OverusedRunningGag Cue the Party Cruise rap]], with a Stream Over fakeout soon after.
* Fortune Cookie: [[UsefulNotes/TurboGrafx16 TurboGrafx]] Powered Edition
** During a playthrough of ''VideoGame/FTLFasterThanLight'', Jon misreads the map. This ends up with his ship stranded on a jump point with no way to get past the advancing rebel fleet. He has to jump into the advancing rebel fleet in the hopes of escaping. He had to endure at least three bombardments to be home free. He dies after his second jump.
** The final game of the night is ''VideoGame/TheStanleyParable''. His first ending he does is the compliant ending. He and his mods act like he's beaten the entire game. The second is the confusion ending.
*** The last ending he shows off for the evening is the Game ending. Which leads to Jon audibly bracing himself as he undertakes one of the necessary steps to reaching it: traversing a series of rooms where [[DiscreditedMeme one door's red and the other's blue]].
* Misfortune Cookie: Everything Goes Wrong On Purpose Edition
** The stream starts with ''The Joylancer: Legendary Motor Knight''. One setting has the player input a sound file. Jon puts in an old egg sound. Cue "YOU WILL GIVE ME AN [[VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld2YoshisIsland <Blarrg noise>]]" repeating on occasion.
** The first game picked is ''Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader''. Noteworthy is Jon's incredulous response every time his wingmen ask for orders when Imperial TIE fighters/walkers/etc. are attacking them.
--->'''Wedge:''' "Orders, sir?"\\
'''Jon:''' "...SHOOT PEOPLE!!"
** For the next Cookie, Jon announces the theme is that they will all be movie tie-in games. The GenreSavvy chat suspects, accurately, that there must be more to it - they all turn out to be ''Home Alone'' games. This also results in a derailment when Jon accidentally discovers a bizarre similarly-titled Steam scam game with thousands of zero-effort achievements while typing in the title.
** Then while playing the game, Jon sets traps in a futuristic-themed house and a household robot randomly appears and electrocutes Kevin. Then, later, as Jon as Kevin tries to fight the Wet Bandits, the robot intervenes and ends up electrocuting both him and the villains repeatedly, doing more damage to the villains than Jon did.
** Another unexpected character in ''Home Alone'' is a ghost that also zaps Kevin. Jon attempts to reference the Jacob Marley scene from ''A Christmas Carol'', only to slip and say he was attacked by "the ghost of Music/BobMarley".
** One game played is ''VideoGame/SpyroEnterTheDragonfly'', which is notorious for being very buggy. [[https://youtu.be/y8xpc668_jM?t=3h28m45s Jon makes use]] of one bug that [[GoodBadBugs lets him go straight to the final boss]], and counts it as a cleared game once he beats Ripto.
** The final game of the night is ''The Adventures of Batman and Robin'', a racing/driving combat game for the UsefulNotes/SegaCD where the cutscenes between each level are entirely comprised of footage from an unaired episode of ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries''. Around the halfway point of the game, Jon eventually gets fed up with the choppy framerate and unfair difficulty and uses a level skip code to skip past the Riddler's level just to see the cutscene after it. In the cutscene, the Riddler naturally accuses Batman of cheating, but given the circumstances, chat interprets this accusation as being directed more towards Jon than Batman.
* Fortune Cookie: Week before PAX edition.
** At one point, Luchajin lets out a very loud noise and comes into Jon's room, turns out she had just finished her ''VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc'' playthrough and was still riding the wave of emotion from the last trial. While it's both funny (and [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments cute]]) with how he comforts her, she eventually walks off saying she's going to get a drink. Jon playfully asks if he's gonna come up and find 3 empty wine bottles and she says that's exactly what's going to happen.
* Subscriber's Fortune Cookie: Your Choice, My Scrambling To Get Them Working Edition
** The entirety of setup done to get freaking ''TabletopGame/{{Clue}}'' of all things up and going. The version that was originally picked was ''Murder at Boddy Mansion'' on CD-ROM [[CallBack (thankfully, he got a disc drive since the last time this happened)]]...only for Jon to have no idea where the disc is, since where he thought it was was just full of burned DVD's of random anime episodes. So instead, Jon was gonna boot up the version on the SNES...when suddenly Dan sent him a version released on Steam with not only online multiplayer, but with a ton of really cool costumes and designs for the classic characters ([[SugarWiki/AwesomeArt that left everyone impressed]]) and multiple maps, albeit locked by DLC. The game itself was just as crazy.
** When ''Fighter Maker 2'' comes up, Jon notes that he was only just able to reach the game disc without standing up, adding sarcastically 'Who wants to stand?' The co-comms ([=ACFan120=] and [=TallManStan=]) mishear this as 'Who would want Stan?' and ''this single mishearing'' spawns a scenario where singleton Stan has to find love with a member of the chat, while Jon plays on the "Captain Falcon School dot com" running gag, pretending to be Captain Falcon as a dating advice guru. After a long rambling DisorganisedOutlineSpeech about Captain Falcon's dating advice, [=ACFan120=] gives a timid reply to Captain Falcon, "I only came here to learn how to parallel park!"
*** This comes with the meta-humour, as later noted, that [=ACFan120=] actually ''did'' meet his girlfriend through Jon's chat (or at least through the TRG fandom).
** When they actually do come to play ''Fighter Maker 2'', Jon ([[RunningGag as usual]]) makes a terrifying monstrosity of a character, [[GenreSavvy this time naming it 'Abomination' from the start]]. For a variation this time, he makes a female fighter in a ninja mask with violent orange hair and Simpsons-yellow skin, who wears two skirts at once and travels everywhere by cartwheeling forwards through the air in a frantic blur.
* Fortune Cookie: Last Week Being Engaged Edition
** The winner of the stream's first cookie is ''[[VideoGame/MarioKart Mario Kart DS]]'', a game that Jon admits to not having played since it first came out... in '''2005.''' Rather tellingly, Jon sees that his friends list is filled entirely with people from the Website/SomethingAwful days, with [[https://clips.twitch.tv/PiercingTolerantReindeerPicoMause such fitting emblems]] as pixel art Sonic, the "it is a mystery" ghost, a crudely drawn penis, and... [[BreadEggsMilkSquick a Swastika]].
*** After beating Grand Prix with Waluigi, Jon takes note of the fact that the credits play over footage of Waluigi driving through the sunset a-la ''Anime/LupinIIIGreenJacket''. Not only does Dan compare the scene to the opening of ''VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire'', which generates a surprising amount of fanart on its own, but someone in chat also [[https://clips.twitch.tv/AlertDirtyMagpieGingerPower jokes]] that it looks like Waluigi's mowing his lawn. Later, Camille sends Jon an edited version of the ''Ruby and Sapphire'' intro based around Dan's joke, which [[https://clips.twitch.tv/FaintEagerMartenTwitchRaid manages to catch Jon off-guard]] when it ends with a voice clip he legitimately had never heard before: Wesker shouting "nice scream, I love it!" (Actually a voice clip from ''VideoGame/SoulCaliburIV'', which Wesker's voice actor Creator/DCDouglas provided a custom male voice track for.)
*** While trying out Mission Mode for the first time in ''thirteen years'', Jon decides to take on the Chief Chilly fight. Partway through the fight, Chief Chilly jumps over Jon right as he's attempting to ram into him, causing Jon to drive into the water. [[https://clips.twitch.tv/ViscousExpensiveSandwichPunchTrees Jon's reaction]] is, predictably yet amusingly, resigned consternation.
** During one intermission, Jon gets sent an egg combining the ''Series/{{Thunderbirds}}'' intro, the typical egg sound, and the ''Series/PowerRangersInSpace'' intro. After letting it play, Jon [[https://clips.twitch.tv/ObservantIronicKeyboardHoneyBadger reveals]] that he's gotten so many similarly-edited audio eggs that he can now tell what audio clips are playing where ''just from looking at the waveform''.
** Later during the stream, ''VideoGame/PacManParty'' wins the cookie, and manages to keep everyone captivated by its sheer peculiarity. Highlights of its... bizarre... nature include [[https://clips.twitch.tv/OptimisticAltruisticAniseAsianGlow?tt_content=player_title&tt_medium=clips_embed a very unorthodox text scrolling sound]], the [[https://clips.twitch.tv/AverageWanderingBasenjiDoritosChip severe penalties]] inflicted on players simply for landing on a bad space, the fact that you can ''[[https://clips.twitch.tv/RealTalentedLEDKAPOW drive your opponent into debt]],'' and the fact that [[https://clips.twitch.tv/TubularSaltyToadGOWSkull one of the first board's cinematics]] involves a kazoo-toting kraken flooding the area, which none of the characters in-game address.
** The last game of the night is the Game Boy Advance port of ''VideoGame/{{Doom}}''. While the game itself isn't that amusing on its own, considering the fact that it's, well, ''Doom'', things escalate rather rapidly when a number of users decide to start mass-gifting subs to various members of chat, culminating in one user [[https://clips.twitch.tv/AwkwardTacitCarabeefThisIsSparta?tt_content=player_title&tt_medium=clips_embed gifting]] out ''twenty subs at once'', much to everyone else's shock.
*** At one point, Jon makes note of the GBA's less-than-stellar rendition of the game's soundtrack, and how the first level of the game swaps out [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic "At Doom's Gate"]] for a track from one of the later levels. At the end of the round, Jon decides to look up exactly what the GBA port's version of "At Doom's Gate" sounds like, and finds out that it sounds '''awful''', with thin, tinny guitars and off-tempo percussion (among other issues). Out of sheer curiosity, Jon then decides to check out the version of "At Doom's Gate" from the [=Sega 32X=] port of ''Doom'', and finds it to be even worse, with everyone comparing it with fart noises. Jon then decides to start overlaying the GBA and PC versions of "At Doom's Gate" on top of the [=32X=] one, creating [[https://clips.twitch.tv/AmusedPiercingLobsterBatChest a cacophonous mess]] that must be heard to be believed. He does it again at the very end of the stream, with ''even more versions'' of "At Doom's Gate" thrown in for good measure.
*** While Jon and company are busy riffing on the farty-sounding [=32X=] version of "At Doom's Gate", Bagel comes in and [[FunnyBackgroundEvent starts chewing on his third grade diploma.]]
** While searching for a target to raid, [[https://clips.twitch.tv/SquareInterestingChickenCharlieBitMe Jon finds]] a streamer broadcasting off of their [=PS4=], using the Eyetoy camera to film their CRT TV while playing ''VideoGame/{{Faxanadu}}''. He finds it so impressive that he decides to raid the guy, who turns out to have '''the most kickass gaming collection ever,''' crossing over with SugarWiki/AwesomeMoments.
* Fortune Cookie: Last Stream Before Wedding/Honeymoon Edition
** Throughout the stream, Jon's chat ends up receiving an OBSCENE amount of gift subs, with most of them coming from a user known as [=BlazeCyndaquil=]. Just to give a perspective of just how much subs Jon's chat kept getting, Blaze's first two "sub bombs" each consisted of '''one hundred gift subscriptions''', which ended up unlocking a new emote all on their own. Things just escalated from there, with constant gift subs coming in from Blaze and a number of other Twitch users, causing Jon to break down from both laughter and emotion, eventually lying down on the floor because he was ''that'' overwhelmed by it all. Not only that, but the sheer amount of notifications coming in from the deluge of gift subs ''broke Bit Boss'' and caused Jon's alerts to get backed up by ''up to two hours''. By the end of the stream, not only were '''''over one thousand subscriptions''''' given out in chat, but Jon also ended up unlocking ''six new emote slots'' from it all.
*** Adding on to the craziness of the sub bombs was the sheer amount of TemptingFate at the hands of both Jon and Jewker, with Jon responding with a RapidFireNo each and every time. It eventually reaches a point where Jon ends up having to restrict himself from saying the exact number of subs needed for a new emote slot, due to it being the biggest prompter for more sub bombs.
*** The chaos of the night reached the point that Jon actually ''appreciated'' getting interrupted by a raid just for the moment of respite. Predictably, with the alert system getting so horribly backed up, the raid notifications always came in late.
*** One of these late notifications (for Highwang's raid) finally shows up at the exact same time as another raid happens.
** During a round of ''VideoGame/FZero'', Jon decides to play for Camille [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kcF7E69C6Q the basement theme]] from ''[[VideoGame/ResidentEvil Resident Evil: Director's Cut]]''. Camille, understandably, is left [[https://clips.twitch.tv/FairSuperAyeayeDogFace?tt_content=player_title&tt_medium=clips_embed quite dumbstruck]]. Jon [[https://clips.twitch.tv/BrainyProtectiveOrcaShazBotstix plays it again]] at the very end of the stream.
*** Later, a joke from chat causes Jon to linger on the less-than-mundane thought of... [[https://clips.twitch.tv/KnottyAmusedTrayNerfBlueBlaster reading Braille with your feet.]]
** While playing ''[[Franchise/StarWars Star Wars Chess]]'', Jon and company end up getting a big kick out of the game's over-the-top capture animations, which range from the flippantly silly to the [[FamilyUnfriendlyViolence jarringly violent]]. Particular highlights among these animations include [[https://clips.twitch.tv/UgliestPlacidEggplantKeyboardCat?tt_content=player_title&tt_medium=clips_embed an AT-ST]] [[GoombaStomp Goomba-stomping Yoda]], Chewbacca [[https://clips.twitch.tv/AmazingUninterestedGalagoANELE blowing up Boba Fett]], and R2-D2 [[https://clips.twitch.tv/PricklyMiniatureTigerWutFace?tt_content=player_title&tt_medium=clips_embed gassing Darth Sidious to death]].
** ''VideoGame/Yakuza0'' is the last game of the night. Predictably for ''Yakuza'', the appearance of [[EnsembleDarkhorse Mr. Libido]] ends up baffling Camille the whole way through.
* Fortune Cookie: Back to Normal Edition
** Jon and the co-comms get to discussing the reveal that a Piranha Plant will be playable in the new Smash Bros game and debating what Kirby will transform into when he steals its power. For some reason, this really captures the imagination of Jon's audience, who drown his Twitter in artist's impressions of the different suggestions.
** Jon raids [[LetsPlay/StephenPlays Stephen and Mal]]'s Extra Life charity stream (Gamecube-themed) at the end of his own, and suggests his fans donate towards a game for them to play. The game in question (suggested by a chat comment)? The Game Boy Player disc, ''and nothing else, just the disc''.
** And then, as the GBP disc approaches first place... the stream crashes. And when it comes back up, Stephen explains that something ''exploded'' in his computer, describing it as sounding like there was a sparkler (a type of low-power firework) inside. Oh, and he's explaining this through a glitched audio feed, because though the backup computer is working fine on their end, somehow the audio feed to Twitch is getting corrupted, and nothing they do can fix it. Naturally, everyone in chat immediately blames Jon for the problems.
--->'''Jon (in chat):''' I DIDN'T CAUSE THIS!
* Fortune Cookie: Too Many Videogames Edition
** The skill of [=ProtonJon=]'s mods rears its head again with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVPVWCiV0e4 Fortune Survivor]], a full parody of "True Survivor" from ''Film/KungFury''. Jon's left in hysterics during most of it, and the co-comms end up losing it too when [[spoiler:the Universal logo appears with "VOD MUTED" at the end of the song.]]
* Fortune Cookie: Video Games are Here Edition
** Jon doesn't expect to find many people playing the just-released ''Robo Puzzle Smash'', but gives the online matchmaking a shot anyway. Cue the dev PXLPLZ appearing as his opponent, [[OhCrap much to Jon's dismay]].
** Jon also gives the 48-hour beta for ''VideoGame/OverrideMechCityBrawl'' a shot. At one point, after executing Setesh's Super, he goes completely invisible... but only for Jon. As his opponent [=HJTenchi=] confirms that he can still see him just fine.
** After playing a round as Contessa, Tenchi recommends that Jon test her out himself, along with some advice on how to wield her Super. During the following match, Tenchi's slightly confused about how to execute Mya's Super before Jon points out how he needs to have [[DesperationAttack low health]] first. Cue Tenchi rushing in to use it on Jon... only to knock his health down low enough for Jon to use Contessa's Super. The one he gave Jon advice on how to wield earlier.
--->'''Tenchi:''' "Thanks for the tip, Jon."\\
'''Jon:''' ''[a few seconds later]'' "[[IronicEcho Thanks for the tip on the Super by the way, Tenshi]]."\\
'''Tenchi:''' ''[being blown away]'' "''No prob, brah--!''"
** During ''Wheel of Fortune'', Tenchi lands on a Bankrupt space. Then, after a significant pause, the wheel abruptly inches over a few spaces, before going into a full spin.
* Fortune Cookie: Good & Bad Games Here Edition
* High Risk Fortune Cookie: No Mercy RNG Edition
** After Jon's viewers voted for the night to be a High Risk Fortune Cookie, the first game it pulls is a Barbie game, very much setting the tone for the night.
** Jon gets distracted from playing by the fact that Soulja Boy has brought out a console (actually a terrible, massively overpriced Chinese knockoff compilation) and then [[OhCrap belatedly realises he has to persuade his chat not to buy him one]].
* Fortune Cookie: Christmas Sweater Season Edition
** This session starts out with Jon trying out ''VideoGame/RainWorld'' on the request of Dan from Adult Swim Games. Jon sardonically notes that he suspects Dan wanted to see him suffer more. In the middle of the session, Dan abruptly declares his real motivation: [[spoiler:"That's what you get for dodging me in Smash!"]] [[https://clips.twitch.tv/CleanTriumphantApePanicVis Jon is less than amused]] and tells him to BringIt.
** Jon tests out Rain World's competitive survival mode and finds that it's only local. So his opponent is completely helpless, a sitting duck for Jon and the predators to take out at their leisure. [[spoiler:Jon promptly blows himself and his opponent up with the same grenade.]]
* Fortune Cookie: Free Form Salt Edition
** Jon cracks up at ''VideoGame/BluesAndBullets''' remarkably brief TitleThemeTune, which is literally just the title sung once, drawn out in incredibly hammy fashion.
** One game, ''VideoGame/NightsOfAzure2BrideOfTheNewMoon'', ends up bugging out and displaying an empty speech box. Cue demands for it to be the raid message--despite that message being nothing at all.
** He also has difficulty getting over the sight of Capone in a bowling jacket.
* Fortune Cookie: Last Stream of 2018 & Before [=MAGfest=] Edition
** Jon mentions before starting up ''Batman Forever: The Arcade Game'' that he'd heard it was full of SensoryAbuse. That turns out to be an accurate description.
** How Jon ends the final stream of 2018: with one last teeny malfunction.
--->'''Jon:''' "Bye everybody. Don't know why I actually did a hand salute; my camera's not on. Whatever! Going to bed; goodbye!" ''[switching to black screen]'' "Oh, Robocop's already gone already, Robocop went to bed already. J-just didn't even tell me. Didn't send me a note, ''nothing''. Just -- I'm getting him up. Get the fuck up."
