History Trivia / NicoB

* ApprovalOfGod: Apparently, Kotaro Uchikoshi, creator of the ''VisualNovel/ZeroEscape'' series, follows Nico on Twitter. Also the developers of the ''Franchise/{{Danganronpa}}'' series, Creator/SpikeChunsoft, love using his Hope Bagels meme when talking about Nagito Komaeda on social media. Komaeda's English voice actor, Creator/BrycePapenbrook, takes it even further: after learning where the meme originated, he started bringing it up with ''Danganronpa'' fans and explaining the meme to those unfamiliar with it. But it also goes the other way around;Nico himself liked and retweeted the picture of the Danganronpa OC Nico Bessho (Ultimate Guesser) from the fanfic Final Horizon.

* FanNickname:
** "Ultimate Comedian", due to his voice acting habits, is starting to be a popular nickname for Nico.
** "Ultimate Plot Guesser", due to his ability to make guesses that come true, whether joking or not.
** In the same vein, "Ultimate Bullshit"[[note]]Originally a nickname he used for [[VisualNovel/Danganronpa2GoodbyeDespair Komaeda]][[/note]], due to his overabundance of luck involving difficult gameplay elements, bosses, and random events.

** Nico personally wishes that he hasn't done the [[ThingOMeter "What Do You Mean?" Counter]] in ''VisualNovel/TheGreatAceAttorneyAdventures'' as he ended up realizing that the official translated ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' games has their characters saying "What Do You Mean?" a lot [[OlderThanTheyThink far before the Scarlet Study]] FanTranslation, and felt that that he placed a big unnecessary spotlight on the FanTranslation's usage of the characters asking that question.

* MissingEpisode: Even Nico himself has one. Originally Nico wanted to do the Let's Play of [[VideoGame/TheresiaDearEmile Theresia: Dear Emile]] as per commenter's request, but as it was revealed by channel mods few years later, Nico stopped recording after the first episode, admiting that he couldn't make it funny or entertaining to watch, thus never publishing it.

** He felt that ''VideoGame/AITheSomniumFiles'' was one of Kotaro Uchikoshi's weaker games, and actually felt bad due to many of his audience thinking it's actually Kotaro Uchikoshi's best game due to his differing opinion of the game, particualrly from the Iris route onwards. That being said, he did show some excitement for the sequel as it stars Mizuki, his favorite character from the game.

* CreatorBacklash: Nico did not like how the [[ThingOMeter SoraXRiku counter]] in the ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts3DDreamDropDistance'' LP came out due to how much he had to stretch his definition of HoYay in order for the gag to last past the first instance of it.

* CreatorsFavoriteEpisode: Nico stated the ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses'' dance contest episode was his favorite episode to record due to him making all of his students to participate in the contest via SaveScumming leading into a lot of hilarious things.
** ''VideoGame/ThirteenSentinelsAegisRim'' ended up not only being one of his favorite LPs ever, but the game itself is officially one of his favorite games of all time after he finished it.

* IKnewIt: Nico's very GenreSavvy ([[AchievementsInIgnorance sometimes even accidentally]]), and he often guesses certain plot twists correctly in the games he's playing.
** Nico managed to guess the whole plot of ''VideoGame/GeminiRue'' like it was nothing.
** A very hilarious DoubleSubversion is in ''VisualNovel/ZeroTimeDilemma'', when he predicts that [[spoiler:Sigma and Diana are somehow Phi's parents]] due to factors such as [[spoiler:Phi revealing that her white hair was originally red, a trait that Diana shared]], and that it would be the kind of plot twist for a ''Zero Escape'' game. When the moment of truth seems to arrive, [[spoiler:Diana, who was trapped with Sigma in the facility and had an affair with him, soon gave birth to.....a baby boy]]. Then it turned out that [[spoiler:Diana also gave birth to a twin girl, who was subsequently named Phi]].
** Noticeably subverted in his ''VisualNovel/NewDanganRonpaV3'' LP, where he thought that [[spoiler:Shuichi would be the first to die and that Rantaro would be Kaede's rival and would live until near the end of the game like Komaeda.]] To Nico's surprise, [[spoiler:Rantaro died first and Kokichi would be the rival.]] In fact, Nico [[spoiler:tends to get most of the victims wrong in that Let's Play. He thought that either Kaito, Gonta, or Himiko would die in Chapter Two, Angie would be a killer instead of a victim, and he didn't expect Miu to be the fourth chapter's victim (though he did guess that Gonta aka Miu's killer would die in that chapter before the body discovery announcement). The only victim he got correct was Kokichi, but immediately after he saw his dead body, he thought it was Kaito that died instead of Kokichi.]]
*** He did, however, correctly predict that [[spoiler:Kaede was Rantaro's murderer and that Shuichi would take her place as protagonist]], which is something only one other known [=LPer=] guessed correctly. However, [[spoiler:this could still be seen as a technical subversion, as Kaede is revealed in the game's final trial to be innocent of Rantaro's murder and that she was framed by the mastermind]].
*** As early as the first episode, Nico predicted that [[spoiler:the students' talents and memories were faked for the purpose of creating another killing game]].

* HeAlsoDid: He's the same [=NicoB=] who made the VideoGame/RPGMaker game ''VideoGame/ForeversEnd''.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Nico almost played ''VisualNovel/{{Nekopara}}'' for a stream after popular vote, but once he learned about the more... [[HGame risque]] parts of the game, and the fact that the SFW version is actually really boring, he quickly decided not to play it and instead streamed the runner-up ''VideoGame/BloodstainedRitualOfTheNight''.

* TheWikiRule: [[https://nicob.wikia.com/wiki/NicoB_Wiki Has a wiki]], but it seriously needs some help.

** There's also the last trial of ''Dual Destinies'', where Phoenix argues against [[spoiler:the phantom, who is imitating him]].

From Nico to someone else: He did like and retweet the picture of the Danganronpa OC Nico Bessho

** He also slowly started to dislike the ''VideoGame/CorpseParty'' series as a result of ''Corpse Party: Blood Drive'' going into too much dark subject matter for the sake of gratuitiousness, and slowly realized that the series as a whole was more gratuitous then he remembered, though the "Moshirige" voice that debuted from it is still in use.
