* Hot off the heels of the ''AVGN'' review of ''Beavis and Butt-Head'' (Genesis), James and Mike play it on this show [[labelnote:Note]](though it was actually recorded before the ''AVGN'' episode)[[/labelnote]]. Of special mention are two instances where the duo die for seemingly no reason, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBh4aCVLApY&t=11m16s and on the second instance James hits an instant replay and still can't figure it out.]]

* ''Rocky'' (PS2): James picks Mickey, and Mike picks Rocky Balboa. Rocky knocks Mickey out soon after the fight begins, disappointing James.
--> '''James''': Is that it?!\\
'''Mike''': You can't do anything if you're dead, dude.\\
'''James''': So wait, does he really suck that much?\\
'''Mike''': I would hope- I would think so!\\
'''James''': Well I thought he'd be awesome!\\
'''Mike''': He's fuckin', like, why would he be awesome?\\
'''James''': Well I thought he'd be like Yoda or something.\\
'''Mike''': Yoda's, like, science fiction or whatever; Mickey's just, like, an old man.\\
'''James''': Well why'd they put him in the game if he sucks that bad?\\
'''Mike''': Well, 'cause it's funny. ''(both laugh)''
** Then the two do a match of Mickey vs. [[Film/RockyIV Ivan Drago]], just for the sheer ridiculousness of it.
--> '''Mike''': It should be, like, one hit, he should be dead!

* James actually plays a good game for the first time in a while, with ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry''. During one level, James makes an off-hand remark about how this level reminds him of dog farts. Mike's utterly baffled, so James explains how one of his memories of playing the game as a kid involved his dog being gassy while he was playing this level.

** At one point, they try to enter a cave to find out what could be inside (In case you're curious, [[spoiler: it's actually a star]]). James flies away from the island in order to get enough room to turn around, but at the same time, he talks about Abott and Castello. He ends up getting sidetracked to the point that the island isn't even visible for a while by the time he turns around.

* ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006''. Biggest moment, the game switches character control over to Tails, temporarily breaking James' concentration (he was playing as Sonic a moment ago) and causing him to accidentally drop Tails into the watery abyss and lose his last life. Cue James and Mike encountering the exact same problem [[LetsPlay/SonicTheHedgehog2006 pokecapn]] and his pals encountered way back in 2008: It doesn't autosave thus they're forced to play the game from the very beginning all over again.

* Towards the end of ''Star Wars (Famicom),'' James talked about a time when he was watching the original ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'' cartoon with his toddler-aged daughter. One episode that they watched contained Scrappy-Doo, and she started mocking Scrappy's catchphrase of "Puppy power!" with "Poopy power!" instead. He said that he almost corrected her... but then realized that she was making her first poop joke and laughed along with her instead.

* When they played the unreleased ''Super Mario's Wacky Worlds'' on [=CDi=], and since there is no goal post, the duo have to reset the game every time they "finish" a level. After getting tired of having to get up repeatedly, James gets out a long stick that the two use to reset the game from the couch.

* James and Mike play ''Batman'' on NES. Near the end, Mike finds himself in deep shit, faced with very tough enemies to defeat, no weapons to attack them with, and one HP left. James advises him to run for it, which he does, screaming all the way, and he makes it. However, in his excitement, he throws the controller to James, not realizing there's a boss. James only manages to pause right as the boss is about to hit Batman, with no way to avoid it. Fortunately, they had one last guy, and James manages to beat the boss anyway.

Biggest moment, the game switches character control over to Tails, temporarily breaking James' concentration (he was playing as Sonic a moment ago) and causing him to accidentally drop Tails into the watery abyss and lose his last life. Cue James and Mike encountering the exact same problem [[LetsPlay/SonicTheHedgehog2006 pokecapn]] and his pals encountered way back in 2008: It doesn't autosave thus they're forced to play the game from the very beginning all over again.
** Their reaction to the shopkeeper whose talking animation keeps playing even after his text box only said one thing. James imitating said animation makes it even funnier.
** Making Tails somehow fly ''through'' the ground and into the skybox.
* Oh boy, James & Mike Mondays: ''Super Off Road''...
** James' controller doesn't work too well due to tech problems with their extension cables, so they have to dust off James' childhood NES to try again.
** When the first race begins, the car sprites' small size and relatively small color palette make James mistake his car for the grey car, when it's actually the blue car ''stuck all the way back at the start of the race''.
** Mike eventually gives up because Pat the NES Punk keeps winning, so he decides to troll Pat and James for the rest of the video. This isn't helped by the fact that the later courses have very confusing layouts, which causes more mayhem as James tries to follow Mike, unaware that the latter is actually fucking around.
** The fun continues into the very next video, where they play ''RC Pro AM 2''. Pat brings up ''Super Off-Road'' and Mike, half-facetious and half-serious, tells him to shut the fuck up about that game. And they also have a hypothetical discussion of Ivan Stewart eating out Mike's ass, causing all three of them to burst into hysterics.
--> '''Mike''': It's better than Ivan... whatever the...\\
'''James''': Ivan Shithead.\\
'''Mike''': ''(chuckles)'' Whatever the fuck that stupid thing's called.\\
'''Pat''': I don't like you guys taking a shot at Ivan 'Ironman' Stewart.\\
'''Mike''': Fuck him. He can eat my asshole. ''(James laughs)''\\
'''Pat''': Y'know, he might be such a nice guy, he might actually do that for you. He's probably 75 by now...\\
'''Mike''': ''(laughing while talking)'' A 75-year old man is gonna eat my asshole. How did the video turn into this?!\\
'''Pat''': Hey, I'm just sayin', he might be open to it. I don't know what his social situation is.\\
'''James''': I don't know anything about the guy, so who knows?\\
'''Pat''': He's probably a very nice guy.\\
'''Mike''': Yeah, he's probably this nice, just...\\
'''James''': That's... that's ''way'' too nice. If you're gonna be like...\\
'''Pat''': Well it depends on how you look at it. Y'know, some people might think it's too nice, but they'll be like, "That's real sweet of you to do that."\\
'''Mike''': ''(in old man voice)'' Hey you don't need to wipe that ass. I'll eat it for ya.\\
'''Pat''': I didn't say- I didn't say "dirty". See, that, that reveals way too much about Mike. ''(Mike laughs)'' We didn't say "dirty" ass, we just said ass. There's dirty ass and clean ass.\\
'''Mike''': Why does everything turn into ass and shit? It's always...\\
'''Pat''': You guys can answer that for me, tell ya the truth.\\
'''Mike''': I guess I brought it up.\\
'''Pat''': You brought up ass and eating it, so I mean...\\
''(everyone breaks down)''\\
'''James''': You play shit, you're gonna end up talkin' about shit.
** On an unrelated topic, Mike mentioning how there's a game called ''Butt'' on the Ouya.
* In one "James and Mike Monday", Bootsy casually beating ''Back to the Future Part III'' for Genesis. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgdPc51_LYo&t=4m35s shocked look on James and Mike's faces]] after he beats level 1 (which WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd got stuck on) is priceless.
* James and Mike play Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis games, which sounds like they'll just be playing the [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1 first]] [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2 four]] [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog3 Sonic games]]. Turns out, they're ROM hack cartridges, one of which is Sonic Megamix, another is a hacked StreetsOfRage 3 game with Sonic in it and another involves SonicEXE. James and Mike's reaction to the SonicEXE hack, the I AM GOD JumpScare popup and the bloody Green Hill zone sells it.
-->(''James and Mike start up Sonic 1'')\\
'''James''': Love the music in this game.\\
'''Mike''': It's so classic...\\
(''The title screen changes to Sonic.exe with the Green Hill Zone backdrop changed into hell'')\\
'''James''': What the fuck...\\
(''{{beat}}'')\\
(''They start playing the game'')\\
'''Mike''': Did you see that? There was, like, blood coming out his eyes...\\
'''James''': [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial No, no, I didn't see that. No.]]
* James and Mike play ''Batman'' on NES. Near the end, Mike finds himself in deep shit, faced with very tough enemies to defeat, no weapons to attack them with, and one HP left. James advises him to run for it, which he does, screaming all the way, and he makes it. However, in his excitement, he throws the controller to James, not realizing there's a boss. James only manages to pause right as the boss is about to hit Batman, with no way to avoid it. Fortunately, they had one last guy, and James manages to beat the boss anyway.
* The Atari Jaguar CD didn't work for ''The Angry Video Game Nerd'', but a couple years later James got a unit in working condition, so he and Mike gave it a try. The best was when they played the ''Highlander: The Last of the [=MacLeods=]'' game, and were unable to get away from two enemies who kept beating the main character with sticks (James: "I can't get out of this!").
--> '''Mike''': Time ta get beat, bwah! Time ta get beat motherfucker!
** The two observing that the main character is like a one-ponytailed Literature/PippiLongstocking.
* The "James and Mike" play on ''VideoGame/JawsUnleashed'', which mostly consists of James, Mike, and Pat the NES Punk shouting "YEAH!!!!" and "OHHHH!!!" (and variants thereof) while Jaws eats people and wrecks boats.
--> '''James''': Jaws is comin' for you, motherfucker!\\
''(later, when Pat and Mike pleading James not to have Jaws eat some harmless seals on land...)''\\
'''James''': I love seals, but come on, Jaws has gotta eat!
* James' bizarre stream of consciousness rambling about why the Grim Reaper carries a scythe from James & Mike Play [[VideoGame/GhostsNGoblins Super Ghouls and Ghosts.]]
* In the "James and Mike" of ''Excitebike 64'', James shared an anecdote about a time in grade school when he took a field trip to a museum where they had a display of droppings from various animals. James was the only one to get 100% of the answers correct, which caused the guy running the quiz to tell him, [[{{Pun}} "You really know your shit."]]
* In the "James and Mike" of ''Bomberman'' for NES, James and Mike bring up how they did a version of this video with Pat the NES Punk instead of WebVideo/JonTron, and mention how [[{{Troll}} Pat kept lying to novice James about how to play the game.]]
--> '''James''': Are skulls good?\\
'''Pat''': [[BlatantLies Yeah.]]
* James and Mike play the unreleased ''Super Mario's Wacky Worlds'' on [=CDi=], and since there is no goal post, the duo have to reset the game every time they "finish" a level. After getting tired of having to get up repeatedly, James gets out a long stick that the two use to reset the game from the couch. Mike, [[BriefAccentImitation taking a Southern accent]], tells James, "Get that stick, bwah!"
** At one point, Mike deadpans about the stick, "You'd have more fun sticking that up your ass than playing this."
** A minor one, but when Mike tries to play the level "Sewer", he says in a nasal voice, [[VideoGame/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesTurtlesInTime "Sewer Surfin'."]]
* In their playthrough of ''VideoGame/MegaMan2'', James trying to make words out of the inventory screen's weapon abbreviations: "PHAWBQE" and "[=FMC123=]".
* In ''Universal Studios Theme Park Adventure'', the two are confused why they can't get on rides when there are too many people. Later, James and Mike are underwhelmed by the ''Film/{{Waterworld}}'' exhibit, which is just the finale of the stage show that lasts about five seconds and the only thing you can control is where you sit in the audience. Mike admits: "Well, at least we got to look at that instead of having to stand in a line." James starts laughing at how ridiculous Mike's statement is: "Who would ever think you'd say that when you're playing a game, like- "We might have to stand in a line!""
** After beating the ''Film/{{Jaws}}'' ride, Mike is underwhelmed by how it ends: Jaws just swims away.
--> '''Mike''': I thought something better was gonna happen than that.\\
'''James''': You thought the kid was gonna go, "Smile, you son of a bitch!"?
* James and Mike have fun playing the ''VideoGame/DoubleDragon'' UsefulNotes/NeoGeo movie-based fighting game...even as it resets on them halfway through (Neo Geo CD technology most likely.)
** "Burnov. He needs to [[{{Pun}} burn off]] some fat."
** James and Mike both start grunting and shouting while playing, and eventually James addresses this:
--> '''James''': Can you imagine how this sounds in other parts of the house right now? It's like, "Nnnggghh!! Nnnnggh!! Take it, bitch!" ''(Mike laughs)'' It's like, "What the fuck's going on down there?!"
* From James and Mike (and Bootsy and Kyle Justin) play Krazy Kreatures, the whole discussion about whale penises, [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal dolphin dick dildos]], and dildo chess.
** Later in the video, Mike and Bootsy don't contribute much to the conversation because they're intensely focused on the game. Bootsy: "I'm so far removed from reality right now."
* James and Mike playing ''VideoGame/DokiDokiPanic'' on a glitchy Famicom Disk System that occasionally breaks down, and putting up with the [[EpilepticFlashingLights eye-raping waterfall background.]]
* While playing the [[VideoGame/FridayThe13th Friday the 13th NES game]] James and Mike realize there's no in-game way to keep track of which cabins have lit fireplaces, so they have to resort to pausing the game and sticking pieces of tape to the television screen.
* It was uploaded on a Wednesday, but the "James & Mike Bonus" video of ''Explosive Fighter Patton'' on the FDS is hilarious. James & Mike are just trying to figure out why the "Flip the disk" message says "INSERT TO [[PrecisionFStrike FUCKING]] BOX".
* In their playthrough of ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZelda'' on the original Famicom, James killed Pols Voices by shouting "[[PrecisionFStrike FUCK]]" into the second controller's microphone.
* James, Mike and special guest star Ryan Schott of Cinemassacre.com play ''VideoGame/IndianaJonesAndTheInfernalMachine'', and only a few minutes into the video, are bitten by a snake. The three are confused why their health meter keeps dropping, even after they start a new life, and finally Ryan wonders if this is because of the snake bite. So the trio reset the game and try again, this time making doubly sure not to get bit again. And they do good for a while... before being bit ''again'' by a different snake.
** In the same video, a graphical glitch caused Indy to sink through the ground when losing a life.
* When playing the Action Max console, the discussion briefly went to ''Series/FullHouse'', and Mike asked James if he could sing the theme song. Mike proceeded to do the first couple verses.
** In the same review, James asked Mike what was on the TV behind him. It was UsefulNotes/XboxOne. James asked if Mike wanted to play it, and Mike replied, [[TakeThat "No."]] Yes, they'd rather play a shitty VHS-based light gun game instead of a brand new console.
* James and Mike play ''VideoGame/TotalCarnage'', and Mike goes completely off-topic to share a dream he had as a teen where he invited the Film/TheThreeStooges to the last day of high school. Keep in mind, this story takes up a good ''half'' of the video. He even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] how his story is completely separate from the craziness happening on-screen.
* ''Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu'': James and Mike trying to say "slipperier" and eventually devolving into imitating the gibberish vocals in ''VideoGame/StarFox''.
* ''Corpse Killer'': James's advice for playing the game: Don't press the "C" button, because it will end your game.
* When reviewing ''VideoGame/{{Metroid}}'', the topic ''again'' gets onto turds, and Mike asks, "What is wrong with us?!"
** The second half of the video is James playing the game solo, since Mike had to duck out. When facing the final boss, James seemed to be channeling his Angry Video Game Nerd character in a couple instances.
* Creator/DougWalker and James play ''American Gladiators'', and both are amused by the StockScream when a player falls off the platform in the Joust minigame. This leads Doug to say, "I wanna hear the scream", and immediately notes how saying that makes them sound like psychopaths. Then it cues a slow-motion, lower-pitched replay of Doug saying, [[EvilSoundsDeep "I wanna hear the scream."]]
* James actually plays a good game for the first time in a while, with ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry''. During one level, James makes an off-hand remark about how this level reminds him of dog farts. Mike's utterly baffled, so James explains how one of his memories of playing the game as a kid involved his dog being gassy while he was playing this level.
* While playing ''VideoGame/LEGOStarWars'', James and Mike spend most of the video deliberately trying to kill [[{{Scrappy}} Jar-Jar Binks]], leading to James telling a story about one time in college when the two of them were so pissed off about ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'' that they threw a VHS tape of the film down the stairs, [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill and then put it in the microwave]].
* ''Anticipation'': James, Mike, and Bootsy laughing incredulously at how many of the items that the game draws are weapons.
** Mike saying, "Remember when Lloyd Kaufman vomited over there?", a reference to the ''AVGN'' episode ''Toxic Crusaders''. James clarified that ''he'' vomited, and Lloyd took a shit.
--> '''James''': I never thought you'd be able to say that. ''(clarifying)'' I mean, not that he ''actually'' shat.
* While attempting to play a malfunctioning ''VideoGame/MetroidIIReturnOfSamus'' cartridge in a Super Game Boy, James goes off on a tangent about different film colorization techniques. While he rambles on, Mike tunes him out and uses the Super Game Boy's built in art program to doodle [[Franchise/TheLegendofZelda Link]] flipping off a [[NinjaZombiePirateRobot lightsaber-wielding firebreathing demon.]]
* ''Supreme Warrior'': Mike causing James to get the giggles by imitating the ineffective kung fu moves featured in the game.
