* "Let me say: the character you play as is called an Iga Ninja... as in "I'm [[IncrediblyLamePun eager]] to throw this game into a fucking woodchipper!"

-->'''Nerd''': Maybe I'll play ''WesternAnimation/Phantom2040'' in the year 2040, or ''[[VideoGame/SanFranciscoRush Rush 2049]]'' in the year 2049. Then it's only a couple decades until ''Cyberball 2070,'' and if the new game ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'' sucks, I can play that in 2077. But then, in all honesty, I might have the perfect excuse not to, because I'll be 97, or dead. But then, in 2084, after my body is replaced by a T-800 endoskeleton with human skin, I can review ''VideoGame/Robotron2084'', or ''[[TheProblemWithPenIsland Robot Ron]]'' if you prefer. In 2142, I'll upload my consciousness into the cloud, transcending physical existence and becoming everything and nothing, so I can review ''VideoGame/Battlefield2142''. I'm glad that one's not for a while. In the year 3000, I'll play ''VideoGame/SimCity 3000'' for the remaining humans, after my self-aware mechanical herd of Nerds wipes out the majority of the human population. Then, the machines will make a time displacement device, and send me back to the years I wasn't reviewing games, and review those also! I'll play every ''VideoGame/{{Madden|NFL}}'' in the year they came out, ''Madden '94'', ''Madden '95'', ''Madden '96''. And once I get through all the ''Madden'' games, I'll go back to the year 64 and do ''[[VideoGame/SuperMario64 Mario 64]]'', ''VideoGame/{{Pilotwings}} 64'', and all the [[Platform/Nintendo64 N64]] games with [[SuperTitle64Advance "64" in the title]]! And then, just in case you thought it was 1964, I'll go to the year 1964 and do them all over again! Speaking of which, no one will know the difference because they've never seen a video game, in fact, they'd be so impressed with it, it would be like some kind of technological miracle. "Who is this weird robot guy who came from the future and brought electronic video TV games?" Then I'd decide, "Well, maybe I should've started them with Platform/Atari2600, because that would be simpler, rather than making somebody play a 3D game who's never seen or heard of a video game," but then I figure, "Well, why not go to the ''year'' 2600 to play Atari 2600, and then to the year 7800 for Platform/Atari7800, and wow, that's a long time from now, and I don't even think video games exist anymore." Or, the complete opposite. I'd play Platform/AtariJaguar in the year Jaguar, because now Creator/{{Apple}}'s naming all of them, and because numbers actually ran out by now, and, you know, everything else is going on. [-Poopity poopity turd fuck fuck fuck! And shitsauce!-] [--And...you know...n'ah...what were they thinking?--]

* The Nerd's spectacular rant on the absurdly complicated level skip code, telling the viewers [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer they'll think he's making it up]]. [[note]]You have to plug in the Player 2 controller when the game is for 1 player only, then hold Up and A on the first controller while simultaneously holding Up on the second controller. Back to the first controller, you then have to press B, and then hold B and Select. If that isn't horrendous enough, you can't input the code on the title screen or while paused, so you have to do this ''during gameplay''. Not to mention, the code only skips one level at a time.[[/note]] He demonstrates an analogy where you have to input the KonamiCode with four controllers plugged into an [[UsefulNotes/NintendoEntertainmentSystem NES]] Four Score. Controller 1 = Up, Up, Controller 2 = Down, Down, Controller 3 = Left, Right, Left, Right, Controller 4 = B, A, Start.

* Noting how the "sweat" in the [[UsefulNotes/SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystem SNES]] port is more disgusting than blood:

* If you don't use the blood code on the UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis version, the censored fatalities are somehow worse than the SNES ones: Sub-Zero just uppercuts you really high, Johnny Cage shadow-kicks you off-screen, and Kano... pulls some unidentifiable black object out of your chest instead of your beating heart. Nerd theorizes that Censored Kano steals your wallet, and the shock of such an act is enough to kill you.
* When mentioning the UsefulNotes/GameBoy port's selection screen, he says that Raiden's portrait looks like someone walked in while he's in the bathroom, Liu Kang has one huge tooth and Sonya has some pretty scary black soulless eyes.
* The UsefulNotes/GameGear version of the game has Goro about the same size as everyone else. Kind of like the pet Goros in the ''Judge Dredd'' arcade game.

* The Nerd is given his "mission" via his ''Film/MissionImpossibleII'' soundtrack, which he listens to on his UsefulNotes/PlayStation 1. Unfortunately, [[ThisPageWillSelfDestruct the disc self-destructs after three seconds]], not enough time to save his [=PlayStation=].

* The ''very'' bad voice acting in the [[UsefulNotes/PlayStation PS1]] version which makes the much maligned ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil'' acting seem like [[Creator/WilliamShakespeare Shakespeare]].

* After the Nerd brings up ''Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future'' for the UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast, he finds out that the Dreamcast is now officially 21 years old, which is the legal drinking age in the US, so he pours some Rolling Rock into his Dreamcast, [[DidntThinkThisThrough which causes it to shut down]].

-->'''Nerd:''' This game is ass... but it's fun ass.

* On that note, Matt himself showing up to tell the Nerd exactly [[JustForPun wha happun]] with the development of ''Final Fight Streetwise'' and how the plot goes from a typical gangsta respec' storyline to full on ''Resident Evil''.

--->'''Nerd:''' And when Ninja Dad jumps 80 feet in the air, he flashes his balls and ass to everyone on the ground! What a shitty day when you get a shuriken thrown in your face, just before you get treated to a nice view of his [[JustForPun ningenitals]]!

** After the Nerd successfully rescues the three dolphins in the Vents and gets the sonar upgrade, he finds out that the Lagoon's task involves rescuing three more dolphins. He then empties every can, bottle, and keg of Rolling Rock he can find into a hot tub and screams in it. After that, he dries himself off with a ''WesternAnimation/DanielTigersNeighborhood'' towel.

* The Nerd points out that one thing he likes about the game is the music, which was composed by AwesomeMusic/TimAndGeoffFollin, who also composed the soundtrack for the ''VideoGame/SilverSurfer'' game, which he even has on vinyl.

* ''Jackie Chan in Fists of Fire'' provides another funny comment:

* While going into Ecco's backstory, the Nerd mentions that unlike Sega's other mascots at the time, such as ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' and ''VideoGame/ToeJamAndEarl'', both of which were TotallyRadical, Ecco was just a relatively mundane dolphin. He didn't ride a skateboard, have a mohawk, shoot lasers from his eyes, or make wisecracking jokes.

** For bonus points, [[https://youtu.be/fVsMIaXIMfE said cover]] is not only [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic actually very good]] and [[HiddenDepths features James Rolfe himself on guitar]], but has Elsie Lovelock on vocals. It's worth the admission price ''alone'' to hear her sing lines like "shitty games falling out your ass!". Made even funnier by the fact that the song she recorded was raised to a slightly higher pitch when it was used in the episode, and the end result sounds like a cute anime girl singing an extremely vulgar J-Pop song.

* In a much more meta sense, the episode's thumbnail. A lot of people had to remind themselves it was a slingshot Dennis was holding, and actually thought it looked like a dick! The thumbnail has since been changed to reposition the artwork of Dennis so it's more obvious that it's a slingshot.

* When the Nerd brings up Ecco's OxygenMeter, he mentions that he read in an issue of ''Zoobooks'' that real-life dolphins can hold their breaths for eight to ten minutes, whereas Ecco can only do so for one minute and twenty seconds. He then asks if Ecco is a chain smoker, and shows the game's box, with its cover art edited to have Ecco smoking cigarettes.
