* CreatorBreakdown: As explained by Mike Matei, the show got tiring to produce while also focusing on his live streaming; it's one of many reasons he decided to end the series.

* DoingItForTheArt:
** The duo adamantly refuses to use cheats or emulators to beat the games easier. The reason being, they want to show what it's like to play NintendoHard games without help, as they did when they were kids. This results in the two dying ''a lot'' in certain games. For example, when they reviewed ''Super Contra 6'' (a hack of ''Contra Force''), they got visibly and audibly tired of playing the same parts of the game over and over.
** Additionally, there's the cost factor. Collecting these old game consoles (and certain rare games for said consoles) is expensive, but they do it because they want to play the games on the original systems (i.e. not clone consoles like Retron 5), to make their gameplay experience as authentic as possible. Averted in some later episodes, when the duo used an Everdrive to play some games and hacks.

They frequently refer to Bullworth Academy as a ''college'' instead of a boarding school, and mistakenly identify the bully characters as ''nerds'' (presumably due to their white polo shirts).
