  • Fortune Cookie: New Year, Same Chaos Edition
  • Fortune Cookie: Pressing Buttons Edition
    • In a strange Contrived Coincidence, the first three games Jon plays (Chiki Chiki Boys, Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link and Jeopardy) all come with flashing light sensitivity warnings - not a Fortune Cookie theme he would have wanted, as a co-comm remarks. Jon puts text on screen to warn of this (the triumphant return of 'Title T') but isn't sure if Jeopardy really has flashing lights or not, so puts a question mark on the end - appropriately enough, as people point out, phrasing it in the form of a question!
  • Fortune Cookie: Happy Appreciate A Dragon Day Everybody! Edition
    • The first game of the night is the rerelease of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game, playing online with Jerod. And before they could even connect to each other, Jerod's game crashed!
    • One of the games that comes up is Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, and since it had been played on a recent cookie he decides to show off the All Cup Tour. Cue many instances of the game messing with Jon, the most notable track it happened on being Bowser's Castle, which Jerod rightly calls Bowser's Fury.
    • Jon does a haiku about his stream.
      "I play video games, but I ruin words right now, because I can count."
    • He then proceeds to do one about The 8-Bit Drummer's Stream:
      "Drum drum drum drum drum, drum drum drum drum drum drum drum, drum drum drum drum yell"
    • Carmen Sandiego Secret of the Stolen Drums comes up on cookie causing Jerod to freak out about her stealing his drums. This leads to a mercy kill for that game.
    • HyperCole64 submits an egg video of him dramatically reading the earlier haikus. The Carmen Sandiego game also features a running joke that he is its protagonist, due to the character being named Cole and one of his colleagues being called Jules (the real Cole makes highlight videos for FamilyJules as well as Jerod).
  • High Risk Fortune Cookie: Throwing Choice To The Wind Edition
    • Jon mishears a sound from Puzzle Bobble 4 as Beefuru. This leads to fanart of Bub as a cow. The resulting character is named Cowbub.
  • Fortune Cookie: Overpowering Memes Edition
  • Fortune Cookie: Happy Lunar New Year Everyone Edition
    • Jon finally plays the pinball machine that chat helped him buy on stream.
    • Jon tries to go to art block but triggers the old stream over alert.
    • During Super Mario Bros 35 the co-coms start talking about a hypothetical famous internet streamer named dinonuggie and how they were using Jon to get closer to him.
  • Fortune Cookie: 14 years of this edition
    • During the first intermission, Jon talks about visiting another panel called Controller Throwers—not Thrown Controllers—which was set up with mystery game challenges that people were called up to attempt. One of them was accidentally revealed as a Ninja Gaiden challenge, and when Jon put his hand up, they let him attempt the challenge. He completed the part of the game selected for the challenge effortlessly, along with the remainder of the game, without them realizing who he was until the very end!
      • Afterwards, he attempted the panel's final challenge, getting past the opera singer in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (NES)... and he glitched the game.
    • Dora the Explorer stares into your soul
    • Waking the sun
  • Remember Video Games? Edition
    • Aelita and Camille are co-comms for a 'ladies' night' edition, but Camille ends up hijacking almost every poll - firstly because her choice wins, and then because the cookie randomly produces the Wiiware game Let's CATCH and her description of it - as a basic catch game with an incongruously deep plot where one hears the life stories of all the players - interests the chat-voters into mercy-killing the poll for it. It does not disappoint.
  • "Every Game Ends in 99 Now" Edition
  • Super Not Ready For Colosseum Edition
    • Jon was amused by the face Baloo makes in the upper part of the pause screen on Talespin for the Game Gear.
      • During Talespin, Jon asks the chat in a poll if they want to finish the game or go to the cookie. It splits evenly 50/50.
      • The final game over screen Jon encountered in this game when losing all his lives to the final boss was discovered to be Dummied Out from an unused ending that sometimes shows up when the player gets a game over.
    • The stream gets the unintended theme that Jon ends up playing multiple games in a row that don't have a GameFAQs page.
  • Last Cookie Before Colosseum 2021 Edition
  • What Shall We Play Tonight? Edition
    • Jon plays Odama, failing the tutorial stage multiple times. It took him 25 minutes to beat.
  • Weekend gaming edition
    • During an art block a viewer asks if the stream is ending already and Jon does a fake out stream end.
  • 10,000 Games Owned "Spectacular" Edition
    • Jon's first cookie of the night contains 10 games instead of the usual 5. As he rolls them, the titles are all in numerical order from 0 to 9. Then... Surprise! It's a Misfortune Cookie night, partially to celebrate owning 10,000 games, and partially as an excuse to test out some new features of the new Fortune Cookie site.
    • The second cookie is a Russian Roulette, a fan-favorite on Misfortune Cookie nights. Naturally, Option 4 wins, although it wasn't the bad game this time.
    • The third cookie is a blind vote created by DeefDragon, the one who is making the new Cookie site. The options are 1000, 2000, 3000, and so on up to 10,000. Chat votes for 9000 due to the "Over 9000" meme, although it was in a tight race with 10,000 (the only option that was actually over 9000).
    • The last cookie is another blind vote, which this time Jon claims contains "all bad games". After the vote (with, of course, Option 4 winning again, although it was a close race between Options 4 and 5), he lists each game. The titles all had the word "bad" in them, and it was otherwise another Russian Roulette.
  • Roll them bones edition
  • High Risk Fortune Cookie: Chancing Our Game Choices Edition
    • After the first game, the next three games end up being anime games.
      • This reaches a ridiculous point when he gets to the fourth game, as he re-rolls Batman Beyond: The Return of Joker, and ends up vetoing Kayne and Lynch: Dog Days due to warnings about flashing lights. The next game that was rolled was Wild ARMs.
  • Plans Changed Edition
    • During the second cookie, Jon somehow ends up rolling the same game (Advance Guardian Heroes for the GBA) twice in a row. The second time, as a feature of the new poll site, has a note added to it: "(It rerolled? Wow, that's lucky.)" When Jon is suspicious that Deef rigged the cookie, Deef confirms in the chat that no, the game legitimately got rolled twice in a row.
  • Test Driving OBS Edition
    • During Super Metroid, Jon encounters a glitch during the initial Ridley fight. Ridley is supposed to either leave when Samus' health drops below a certain point, or drop the baby Metroid and then leave if you hit him 100 times. At some point during the run, Ridley very slowly flies toward Samus, allowing Jon to easily hit him 100 times... and then some. Ridley then ends up stuck in the wall, unable to fly away. After Samus' health drops to where it should to end the fight, Ridley still doesn't fly away, so Jon needs to get it down to 0, get a Game Over (which should be impossible during this segment), and try again. Jon immediately dubs said glitch the 'Ridley Scoot'.
  • Last Cookie of 2021 Edition
    • As the first game starts up, the OBS feed showing it flew away.
