----
!!Tropes that apply to [=SuperJeenius=]:

* AchievementInIgnorance: He kills Mendez in VideoGame/ResidentEvil4 with nothing more than the stock pistol and a grenade.
* ActuallyPrettyFunny: He finds several traps in VideoGame/EryisAction too entertaining to get frustrated with them.
* AmericanKirbyIsHardcore: In a reversed version of the trope, in one of his Japanese vlogs Jake shows how the Japanese cover art of ''VideoGame/LollipopChainsaw'' eliminates any reference to chainsaws.
* {{Angrish}}: Pretty much the entirety of the VideoGame/{{Battletoads}} race. At one point, he gets too angry for Angrish, instead letting out a scream of pure rage.
** It happens a couple times, actually. The second time, it's so loud that he gets a unique achievement for it.
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: At one point in his VideoGame/Persona3 LetsPlay, he points out his own forgetfulness, [[HypocriticalHumor before being distracted and]] [[TemptingFate forgetting what he was talking about.]]
** "Okay, well that is problematic. We have to contend with someone else who's in here, possible threatening Nanako's life as we speak. There's no time to waste, let's hurry. *beat* (Gasp) Another gold shadow!"
** "I want to collect all the rewards from the quests I've been--- Puppy!"
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Jake is typically a very nice, friendly guy, and he tends to respond to aggravating or challenging things with either exasperation or enjoyment (see ChallengeGamer). When he gets mad? He gets ''mad''. The Battletoads LP has him expressing the most Angrish at the loudest volume... while in the company of Proton "FUCK OFF WITH THE COIN BLOCKS!" Jon and LetsPlay/PCull44444, two Let's Players renowned as much for their angry ranting as they are for their skills.
* BookEnds: Part 25 of ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros2'' begins and ends with Jake exclaiming "World Six!"
** In the ending of his Persona 4 Golden Let's Play, he rewatches the game's intro and talks about all the hidden symbolism and foreshadowing it contains.
* BigNo: In Part 2 of his NSMB2-LP with Josh, he lets one of these out.
* BrainBleach: He expresses ''very'' obvious disgust when he meets Sal Manela the first time in his VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney LP.
* BuffySpeak: Very high amount of this, especially when talking to enemies or objects in the games.
* ButWaitTheresMore: In his ''VideoGame/MarioParty9'' co-ops with LetsPlay/JoshJepson, when Toad describes the level at the start and uses the phrase "And that's not all!" they repeat it in an advertising-spiel voice.
* CatchPhrase: Several.
** "[[ShapedLikeItself It is what it is]]".
** "Holy... crow!"
** "I can't even spell 'jeenius' right."
** "How sad, bad dad." (Created with LetsPlay/JoshJepson in between episodes of DK Country Returns)
** "[[OwMyBodyPart Ow! My]] [[WebAnimation/TeenGirlSquad most-of-me!]]" (when he gets hit)
** "[[MadLibsCatchphrase 'I see' said the blind man, as he pulled out his X and Y]]" [[note]](An OrphanedPunchline reference to the old bit of wordplay "'I see', said the blind man, as he pulled out his hammer and saw").[[/note]]
** "[[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheLastCrusade He chose poorly]]".
** "This is danger-town, danger-zone, danger-danger-danger!"
** "BOOM BANNED" whenever he bans a spammer or bot.
** There are a few both he and [=JoshJepson=] use in their ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountryReturns'' co-op, such as "Props where credit is due", "[[WorthIt I sacrificed my body]]" (when one of them grabs a collectible and dies in the process), "[[MemeticMutation NOPE--Chuck Testa]]", "[[{{Portmanteau}} True-ché]]", "[[UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS My body is/isn't ready]]" and "[[MadLibsCatchPhrase X for DAAAAYS]]".
** Some of these reappear in ''VideoGame/RaymanOrigins'', along with others such as "[[MemeticMutation Balls on chair--now I'm ready for some things]]", one of them referring to 'lumms' and the other correcting the pronunciation to 'looms', and mispronouncing the word 'Origins' in the title in different ways.
* ChallengeGamer: In ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountryReturns'', bordering on NightmareFetishist for some of the more NintendoHard levels. An occasional catchphrase is variations on "That is SO hard! ...I ''LIKE'' it!"
* CharlieAndTheChocolateParody: "Willy Whompa and the Fortress Factory" from part 17 of ''New Super Mario Bros 2''.
* ChewbaccaDefense: He will often attribute things going wrong or unexpectedly to "science".
* {{Cliffhanger}}: In his blind [=LPs=] of well-known games such as ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'', he coins the idea of a 'reverse cliffhanger' - when the audience mostly know what's going to happen next, but Jake himself doesn't.
* CoolSword: Owns one, as shown in one of LetsPlay/JoshJepson 's vlogs. They use it to cut fruit. And then try to kill each other. Obviously.
* ChivalrousPervert: Comes out more in his Persona [=LPs=].
* CrossPlayer: Plays as Sheva, and later, Jill during the ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil5'' playthrough with [=ProtonJon=].
** Something of a RunningGag; also plays as Peach in ''VideoGame/MarioParty9'' and as Zelda in LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys' ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'' tournament.
** And his character in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV'' is a female [[CatGirl Miqo'te]].
* DramaticIrony: During case 3 of VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney, Jake jokes that [[spoiler:he'll defend Edgeworth and find him innocent during Turnabout Samurai. Guess what happens in Turnabout Goodbyes?]]
* ElSpanishO:
** In episode 4 of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'' he says an enemy he killed is 'muchos deados', before adding "[[LampshadeHanging I don't think that's how you say 'much dead' in Spanish]]".
** During the Battletoads race, when PCULL asks [[CheckpointStarvation how far up the Revolution he has to go before getting a checkpoint]], Jake's reply is 'muchos faros'. He then asks if 'faros' is actually a word. (It is, but it means "lighthouses".)
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: An aversion; many viewers' first exposure to him was through the ''Battletoads'' race, in which the usually very even-tempered Jake is constantly raging and swearing at the game.
* EpicFail: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ct6-JosBooE&list=PL2EBFD2EF86D4F670&index=17 episode 17]] of his Blind LP of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'', Jake equips the newly-recruited Celes with full relics and decent equipment... except for a weapon. He continually goes back to the equipment screen for other reasons, but [[FailedASpotCheck never notices Celes has no weapon.]] This is even present when he receives a "Thunder Rod" and thinks its a weapon. He goes to Celes's weapon slot to equip it. His cursor hovers ''right over'' the [=RegalCutlass=], highlighting statistical increases in yellow, and he exits the menu, still leaving her weaponless! He subsequently gets [[CurbStompBattle Curb Stomped]] by the tunnel armor boss. In the opening to the next video, Jake himself notes how dumb a move this was.
* EverybodyLaughsEnding: Every episode of ''New Super Mario Bros 2'' seems to end with Josh laughing.
* EvilTwin: Jake's evil side comes out in force during his stream of a Max Chaos Run of ''VideoGame/{{Catherine}}''.
* FlatWhat: Jake's default reaction to some of the wackier situations and characters in Ace Attorney.
* ForgotAboutHisPowers: In his ''P3 FES'' Let's Play, he complains that one of the Guardian bosses in Tartarus would be so much easier if he had access to a party healing spell. Several parts earlier he showed off Cadenza, a fusion spell that heals the whole party. Not once in his many attempts to defeat the boss does he remember this, which is most likely understandable considering the requirements may be more trouble than it's worth.
** Happens again in episode 15 of the Crash 3 Let's Play, where he goes through all sorts of hell trying to get the gems in Future Frenzy. Just about all of the parts he failed at would have been no problem at all had he remembered that defeating N. Gin gave him a ''bazooka'' that he could have used to [[WhyDontYaJustShootHim blast away the problem enemies]] instead of attempting to spin or evade them and getting killed in the process. He recognizes this in the next episode when reaching a part that actually forces him to use it.
* FountainOfMemes: InUniverse, Jake himself is this trope for existing memes.
* GenreSavvy: He is the very DEFINITION of this trope in ''VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc''. He's able to guess correctly [[spoiler:the fact that the characters are all on TV by the end of the FIRST CASE, the fact that Chihiro is a boy before the investigation for Chapter 2 is even over,]] and THE ENTIRETY OF CASE ONE'S MURDER CORRECTLY!
* GoodWithNumbers: Or at least he makes a lot of maths-based references and jokes.
* HeroicBSOD: He gets ''very'' quiet in episode 60 of ''P3''. [[KilledOffForReal For a good reason.]]
** The Battletoads race may have brought the worst out of him.
* HeroicRROD: In the sequence of events immediately following his below-mentioned LargeHam moment, his voice is pretty hoarse, something that he himself comments about.
* HilarityEnsues: Jake wanted a zombie-themed game to LP alongside Persona 3, so he went and picked up the only one that looked interesting to him for a blind LP. He picked ''VideoGame/LollipopChainsaw''. His reaction to the intro video alone is enough to let everyone involved know what they're in for:
-->''"So... Holy cow, what have I gotten myself into?"''
* IKnowMortalKombat: Mentions in one of his Japan vlogs that he was able to navigate his way around Shibuya, despite never having been there before, purely from having played ''VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou''.
* ILikeMyXLikeILikeMyY: In episode 15 of ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'':
-->'''Jake:''' I like girls like I like my Tick Tock Clock - [[UnfortunateImplications not moving]]! ...I don't even know what that means, that sounds ''morbid'', actually, it makes it sound like I like my girls dead. [[ThatCameOutWrong Which is not true, ladies]]. [[DiggingYourselfDeeper Ladies, I got your back, I don't want you dead]]... That was awkward.
* InsistentTerminology: In his ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy2'' race with Argonmatrix, they both refer to Lubba (the fat Luma on Starship Mario) as "[[LetsPlay/{{Chuggaaconroy}} Chugga]]".
** In [[VideoGame/Persona4 Persona 4: Golden]], he refers the Courage stat as "Interior Crocodile Masculinity".
* IncrediblyLamePun: When he maxes out the Knowledge stat in ''VideoGame/Persona3'', he says that he is not just a "genius" now, but a "super genius".
* JokeAndReceive: In his ''VsualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc'' LP, he manages to correctly guess that [[spoiler:Hifumi would be murdered by Celeste]] while he was making a joke.
* LargeHam: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gx9KKy9D10k&feature=player_detailpage#t=181s Really hams it up during]] [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI Kefka's]] famed "HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE" MadnessMantra. After said mantra, he can be heard quietly {{Lampshading}} it:
-->''"Wow... I kinda got into that."''
* LateToThePunchline: The "O, Carina!" IncrediblyLamePun in episode 9 of the ''Four Swords'' co-op.
* ManlyTears: What Jake is reduced to during the "Eyes on Me" scene in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII'' [[spoiler: [[BrickJoke and again during the ending of said game]]]], among other occasions throughout his [=LPs=].
* {{Metaphorgotten}}: This happens more often than not whenever he uses an expression.
* NameMcAdjective: Often used as a component of his BuffySpeak, such as referring to Diddy Kong's jetpack as "the Hover-hover [=McHover-hover=]".
* NiceGuy
* OneSteveLimit: Enforces this for his ''Ace Attorney'' LP. He's none too pleased about sharing a name with Jake Marshal, and renames him "Bill Marshal."
--> "We're just gonna call him...um...Bill. 'Bill Marshal.' We're {{retcon}}ning this game."
* TheNicknamer: He refers [=AkuAku=] as "Wutebega", after the sound he makes. Note that the name is a product of his childhood.
* TheParanoiac: Jake jumps immediately into this mindset upon discovering the true nature of the "school life" in ''VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc'', assuming that nobody else in the group can be trusted, and already planning how to murder someone else (or avoid getting killed himself). Ironically, this is the exact ''opposite'' attitude of the one the in-game protagonist, [[AllLovingHero Makoto]], takes.
* PerfectlyCromulentWord: The ''VideoGame/MarioParty9'' co-op with LetsPlay/JoshJepson gives us "strategery", "automagical" and "vocabulous".
** ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros2'', also with [=JoshJepson=], gives us "[[WeWillUseWikiWordsInTheFuture vidjagames]]" and "brime", which according to Josh means "to kick someone's ass at Mario".
* PerverseSexualLust: A RunningGag in ''VideoGame/RaymanOrigins'' is him having this for all the [[FairySexy nymphs]].
* PlayerArchetypes: In the Persona [=LPs=], He's TheRoleplayer answering [=NPCs=] in character.
* PrecisionFStrike: During Case 5 Part 38 of ''VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney''.
-->"Oh [[spoiler: Gant]], just go fuck yourself."
* RunningGag: Him completely ignoring [[VideoGame/Persona4 Kanji's Social Link]], so much that there's always someone bringing that fact up in every video of this LP.
** And when he started his Social Link with Kanji, he later calls Kanji "Kanju" instead due to a typo in the game.
** Another one for Persona 4 Golden: Consistently not having enough courage (or rather, interior crocodile masculinity) to pick a dialogue option despite wanting to, with only a different stat popping up once or twice.
** In ''Dangan Ronpa'', Jake's thumb keeps slipping and touching the touch screen, causing him to accidentally skip text.
** Also in ''Dangan Ronpa'', Jake making the thumbnails show Hiro. This inexplicably happened in Chapter 3 when all his thumbnails coincidentally showed either Hiro or Sakura, and he started rolling with it since. As of June 15, 2017, there have been 37 videos where the thumbnails are in-game screenshots. 20 of them (more than half) are of Hiro.
* ShoutOut: "No meat, no grains... that's about time that [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants we take the whole town and we push it somewhere else.]]
** "[[FlatWhat We got tiny-ied.]] [[Film/HoneyIShrunkTheKids Honey, I shrunk the bandicoots?]]"
** When naming [[VideoGame/Persona4 Yu Narukami]], he chose [[Manga/DeathNote Light Yagami]].
*** And he named the main character in ''VideoGame/Persona3'' [[Literature/FullMetalPanic Sôsuke Sagara.]]
** When visiting Hisano in Episode 60 of ''VideoGame/Persona4'', he says that they were going to [[Series/SaturdayNightLive live in a van,]] [[Creator/ChrisFarley down by the river.]]
** [[Manga/AzumangaDaioh Chiyo Mihama]] in ColorFailure is featured on his Youtube avatar and channel banner.
* SigningOffCatchphrase: "...and I hope you're having a ''fantastic'' day."
* SirSwearsALot: Usually averted, but played straight in the {{VideoGame/Battletoads}} [[LetsPlay/ProtonJon race]].
* {{Spoonerism}}: In the ''Four Swords'' co-op, as often as not they refer to the game as ''Sore Fords''.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: When he teams up with [=JoshJepson=] for collabs, he's usually the Wise Guy to Josh's Straight Man.
* SuperTitle64Advance: "Mario Sunshine 64 Versus Galaxy Party Trozei" from part 17 of ''New Super Mario Bros 2''.
* SurroundedByIdiots: As shown below, from ''Four Swords'' Episode 1.
--->'''[=PCull=]''': *Singing the Spectrum Song*
--->'''[=Josh=]''': The wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round...
--->'''[=Tim=]''': [[CallBack We aren't the champions...]]
--->'''[=SuperJeenius=]''': AHHH! I'm trapped in a room with morons!
* TemptingFate:
** In episode 17 of ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'', Jake dies, leaving Josh to take only one of two possible routes. "Well, let's hope there's not a coin th--" ''(star coin appears on other route)''
** During his battle with Nerapa in ''Final Fantasy VI'', Jake declares that there's no way he's going to sit through the cutscene leading up to it again. Not a ''second'' later, Nerapa one-shots his last party member with Fire 3. Jake is so stunned that he [[MadnessMantra just repeats "Fire 3?!" for a good twenty seconds]].
* TheyCallMeMisterTibbs: A component of his BuffySpeak is referring to people and things in games as "Mister (name)", sometimes just "Mister Man".
* TokenEvilTeammate: LetsPlay/Pcull44444 gets this reputation in ''Four Swords''.
** Jake himself isn't received much better by the other players.
* VerbalTic: "Gladly", "Truly", "Nice!", "Sad.", etc.
** He also says 'however' a lot to fill gaps between sentences.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Well, for Insects instead of snakes: ''Resident Evil 4'' got a lot less fun for him at Episode 16.
--->'''[=SuperJeenius=]''': Did he say 'insects'? Cuz I ''really'' hate bugs...
** More specifically he ''really'' doesn't like spiders, which comes up in his ''Resident Evil 5'' co-op with [=ProtonJon=].
*** It's practically becoming a running gag in the RE5 LP that whenever Jon starts to give warning about a new enemy type being introduced ("One of your favorite enemies from Resident Evil 4," "A traditional Resident Evil enemy," etc.), Jake pretty much always thinks it's spiders, even after they've already encountered them.
** It's so extreme that he turns the camera away from the spiders in VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV.
