231- Donkey Kong Barrel Blast | The Curse

  • Scott sets out to defeat sex once and for all by beating its very source: Donkey Kong: Barrel Blast.
  • Scott states that without Donkey Kong, we wouldn't have Nintendo as we know them today. Then cut to Scott holding Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash.
  • Scott reflects on the history of the Donkey Kong franchise and when he gets to Donkey Kong Junior:
  • Scott's summary of Donkey Kong 3's plot... though "summary" might be the wrong word.
    Scott: Donkey Kong 3 is a vertical shooter where Stanley shoots bug spray up into Donkey Kong-ass Donkey Kong's Donkey Kong-ass Donkey Kong ass.
  • When comparing it to the later Donkey Kong Country games, Scott refers to Donkey Kong 3 as "Flavor of the Month: Spray this Monkey's ass with Bug Spray", only to cut away to Scott at an ice cream parlour where that is the flavor of the month. Scott wisely goes with Chocolate.
  • Microsoft buying Rare during the Nintendo GameCube era is represented by Scott carrying a bag labeled "Donkey Kong-Related Activities" while standing in front of a door labeled "The GameCube Generation":
    Scott: (in disbelief while turning to the camera) Oh, come on!
  • Scott's metaphor to describe Rare continuing to develop for Nintendo handhelds after being bought out by Microsoft:
    "Sure, we can still be friends, you'll just hear me and my new boyfriend f*ck all the time."
  • Scott pins Donkey Kong's output in the 2000s on Nintendo not knowing what to do with the character after Rare's departure.
    Scott: Be honest, if you had the keys to this kingdom, you wouldn’t either. (slams down some DK Bongos) So f*ck it, let's get weird!
    DON-KEY! KONGA!
    Scott: ...all according to plan...
  • The summation of Nintendo's last exclusives for the GameCube:
    Scott: 2006 brought us Chibi-Robo!, Odama, Baten Kaitos: Origins... (beat) and the death of Gerald Ford.
  • "You know, I have heard some people say this game is unfairly hated. I've also heard voices in my head."
  • Every day on Scott's calendar for May 2022 is filled with reminders to "Not Have Sex"... except for the 22nd, with is marked "Betray The Alliance".
  • Rex makes his entrance by punching down Scott's door (which is apparently made of paper) and yelling "IMPRACTICAL!" while facing the wrong way.
    • And in the next shot, the door is magically fixed.
  • Scott takes precautions against sex by spraying Raid on his crotch.
  • Rex guards Scott against sex while he plays the game... by sitting next to him with with nothing below the waist but a mosaic. And when the effects start to get to him-
    Rex: I'm cold...
    Scott: (looks down) I can see that.
  • Scott initially thinks that the game supports the DK Bongos, because he's not a narcoleptic. When the race actually starts, a prompt appears telling the player to shake the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. Cue Scott, still holding the DK Bongos, falling forward and breaking the table in front of him.
  • Scott orders an emergency shipment of "no sex" to save Rex, which is delivered by Jeb. It turns out to be a handgun.
  • Scott fills Jeb in on the situation:
    Scott: So I'm trying to stop sex and I need your help doing it, so I have Rex over here guarding me making sure I have sex without having sex, but he can't handle all this sex, so I was wondering if you could stick around to resuscitate him if possible so I can continue to not have sex while having sex, while Rex guards me while you guard Rex, that would be great-
    Jeb: (looking at Funky Kong on the title screen) Damn, is that a monkey in sunglasses?
    (Beat)
    Rex: Is this what the gun was for? (points it at Jeb)
  • "So you can punch enemies, opponents, and barrels with A, use items with B, pause the game with +, back out with Home, turn off with Power, throw it out with spite…"
  • The severely-sick Rex calling Jeb "a f*ckin' CREEP!" and then handing him a red "A".
    Jeb: What does the "A" stand for?
    Rex: You're a f*ckin' CREEP!
    • Later on, when Rex gets better and reconciles with Jeb, he hands him another "A" - this time, saying it stands for him being "a f*ckin' friend".
  • Scott is baffled at how much of a Ms. Fanservice Candy is. He calls Candy's Challenges "an excuse to ogle a monkey" ("Just go to the zoo!") and, in reference to her skimpy tank top with "Candy" written across her breasts, yells "Jesus, Candy, just wear a name tag!"
  • The episode ends on a dramatic rock remix of "Breakout" that transitions into the new theme "Break In" as Scott manages to beat the game without sex, summoning forth the (really well animated) curse within. Scott leaps into battle... Only to Smash Cut to him back at this desk, looking beaten with his glasses askew, holding a "World's Best Virgin" Coffee Mug.
    Scott: I did it.

232- Nintendo Switch: Five Years In

233- 3D Gaming

234- Day One Editions

235- Mario Sports Superstars | Five in None

236- Nintendo GameCube: Shaping a Generation

  • The opening to this episode brings the opening of GameCube Was Best to its logical conclusion.
    Scott: Hey all, Scott here! (holding his GameCube) I cherish the Nintendo GameCube; it's all I'll ever need!
    [The entirety of Scott's collection, barring his GameCube stuff, vanishes into thin air.]
    Scott: (beat) Okay, I'm not upset, but my insulin was there, too.
  • The hypothetical board meeting on how the GameCube's name came to be:
    [Scott, Rex, Jeb, and Target Employee are sitting on the couch, surrounded by various alcoholic beverages.]
    Scott: Name it after a shape! NAME IT AFTER A F*CKING SHAPE!
    [Rex, Jeb, and Target Employee all start to get excited at the idea.]
  • "Third Party Games on GameCube: They Exist?!"
  • Scott's summary of Shadow the Hedgehog? A cough, a shrug, and an utterance of "F*ck!"
  • When bringing up The Wind Waker, Scott suddenly screams when he sees Link's cel-shaded design.

237- Game Titles

  • Scott reveals that it was his Great Uncle Ed who invented letters. He did so because he was tired of not being able to name things.
    Great Uncle Ed: (slams alphabet onto table) Mr. Bones! It's Mr. Bones!
  • His analogy for the official name for Castlevania 64 being simply Castlevania, the same as the first Castlevania on the NES.
    Scott: I got out of bed this morning so I accomplished something, too! Let's forget my dad was ever a thing!
  • Scott's opinion on the naming of the Call of Duty games.
    Scott: It doesn't matter, you could name the next Call of Duty, Call of Duty: I Smell. It would do just as well as last year's, and people would just call it the Call of Duty for this year.
    Scott: (at desk, holding Call of Duty: I Smell) Last year's smelled better, though.

238- From Handheld to Console

  • The intro has Scott claim that he's been doing a lot of thinking about himself and figuring out the one thing that no one else can: blowing up garbage. The next scene has Scott holding a copy of Secret Agent Clank on PlayStation 2note , lamenting that "it's already been done!"

239- Ex-Exclusives

  • Scott decides to take advantage of rising divorce rates by setting up a 25¢ Divorce Stand. Smash Cut to Scott holding a bunch of former exclusives in his hand.
    Scott: I need to rethink my pricing…
  • The Big Three each have their exclusive series that people always associate with their consoles; Nintendo has Mario, Zelda and Pokémon, Sony has Uncharted, God of War and Ratchet & Clank, and Microsoft has… Sneakers.
  • Scott throwing his Switch away in horror upon seeing an Xbox notification while playing Minecraft.
  • Later, when seeing Microsoft Studios being credited for Ori and the Blind Forest on the Nintendo eShop:
    Scott: (holding up his Switch with bloodstains running from his eyes) Oh boy!
  • The Xbox Game Studios logo is one of the first things you see when booting up Psychonauts 2 on PS4... or one of the last if you have a soul.
  • Scott questions why Nintendo insisted on making LEGO City Undercover a Wii U exclusive when LEGO games always show up on their platforms, when they should be pushing to get the rights to a game they usually wouldn’t get… like Devil's Third.
    Scott: (rushing into his game room brandishing a bat) WHERE?!
    • To recap, Nintendo saved the game from being canceled after the original publisher THQ went bankrupt, even assisting in development to the point that the late great Satoru Iwata was credited in the end titles.
      Scott: This is just as much of a Nintendo game as… (looks frantically around his Wii U shelf until he spots a stray copy of Walalae Country Club on N64)…YEAH!
    • Speaking of Devil's Third being a Wii U exclusive…
      Scott: What are you gonna do about it? Play the multiplayer portion for free on Microsoft Windows?
      (cut to a promotional image for Devil's Third Online)
      Scott: (wearing a magician hat and holding a wand) And for my next trick, I'm going to shut the f*ck up!
  • Scott straight up dies at the revelation of Nintendo putting select Wii games on an Android console, and ends up doing the rest of the segment on the Chinese Nvidia Shield Wii ports as a ghost. He later gets spooked back to life by the mention of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles.
  • Octopath Traveler appearing on Xbox Game Pass proves to be the last straw for Scott:
    Scott: THAT'S TOO FAR! There needs to be limits to these types of things, and I'm sick of it! You can't just take that away from us Nintendo fans, and because you did, I'm gonna do something about it!
    (cut to Scott slapping a 50¢ sign over the 25¢ price on his divorce stand)
    Scott: Profit.

240- Dual Releases

  • When mentioning how Nintendo initially intended to release 15 different versions of Nintendogs, he brings up mock-up box art of those 15 hypothetical games, which not only feature much more specific and obscure dog breeds, but two of them aren’t even dogs (a gerenuk and a cockroach).
  • Jerry interrupting Scott before he discusses the Sonic Boom games.
    Jerry: (filming Scott with a camcorder) Uh, can you say "Hey all, Scott here, and my therapist never recommended me to do any of this"?
    Scott: Why would I waste a "Hey all, Scott here" on that?
    Jerry: 'Cause I'm scared what's gonna happen!
    Scott: It's just Sonic Boom.
    Jerry: And Genghis Khan WAS JUST A F**KIN' GUY!!

241- PC Games on Console

  • The entire opening:
    Scott: Hey all, Scott here. I have molecules. I can admit that. Those molecules form a man with skin who uses it to play Bug. Evil isn’t born, but that was. My brain was only ever designed to beat this, which means if I want to tolerate using a PC for 30 minutes to discuss PC games on consoles, I must go forth with brain surgery, replacing it with an exact copy, though now, with the PC game tolerance toggle switched to “iffy”. The results?
    (cut to Scott wearing a medical headband, who sneezes up blood while looking at a PC)
    Scott: …maybe.
  • Scott blows the dust off of his PC… with a leaf blower.
  • Scott's Skewed Priorities when playing SimCity.
    Scott: Need more housing... or a third zoo!
  • Scott remarks that The Urbz, a console/handheld-only spin-off of The Sims, "looks like it tried Monster twice."
  • After attempting to explain the timeline of the Far Cry Instincts series note :
    Scott: Oh, f*ck, I'm sorry, I wasn't explaining Far Cry, I was explaining quantum physics!
  • When covering Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel (which as he points out, is not to be confused with Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel), Scott claims that it is as much of a Fallout game as... Beat Saber.
  • Scott prefaces his talk about the Civilization ports by calling it one of his favorite Mac series, to which he clarifies,
    Scott: Every mainline game's released on Mac, I said nothing wrong, hee-haw!

242- It Came from the Nintendo eShop

  • Scott is handing out old 3DSes filled with eShop games to trick-or-treaters... despite not knowing it was Halloween. He is unable to convince Rex that it isn't candy, which results in Rex eating the handheld and being poisoned by the lithium battery.
  • Jerry Atricks has returned to his newscaster roots to report on Rex's aforementioned condition (though he's more interested in interviewing Jeb about how he filmed Rex eating the 3DS), and it turns out an examination uncovered that the battery read "in case of ingestion, arrest Scott". Scott realizes he should probably stop labeling things that way as he pulls out a knife reading "if stabbed with, audit Scott".
  • Scott is arrested for giving out "poison candy" by Officer Steel Wool (apparently back on the force after all those murders) and another officer who looks familiar. Once Scott has been locked up, he reveals that this is because he's the Employee brothers' cousin... Police Employee.
  • Scott's reaction to being arrested:
    Scott: (gasps) (picks up his phone) 911, somebody just broke in! (cut to Scott in a jail cell) Can we have prison outside today?
  • Despite Scott's Rousing Speech about the eShop's eminent shutdown and its future at the end, something doesn't feel right to him.
    Scott: Oddly, I don't feel at peace...
    (Smash Cut to Scott back at his desk, sadly holding onto his Wii U box with a "HAPPY 10TH BIRTHDAY" note on it)
    Scott: (nervous pause) ...'cause I'm gonna have to talk about this AGAIN!!

244- Console Pack-In Games

  • Scott puts on a blindfold so he can show the audience the contents of the PSVita day one box without knowing himself. He takes out a soaking wet dead rat and instantly knows that it's Little Deviants.
  • Scott considers Duck Hunt to be a good pack in as it lets him work out his urge to kill ducks in a healthy way. Cut to him furiously strangling a plush duck.

245- Sonic 3D Blast | "3D" "Blast"

246- Touch! Generations for Nintendo DS and Wii

  • 100 Classic Books lives up to its title much better than something like Mario Super Sluggers.
    Scott: Where the f*ck are the slugs?
  • Scott questions why soda shake is included in Clubhouse Games.
    Scott: Nintendo, I don't need you for this.
    (shakes can of soda and opens it in his face)

247 - Board Game Video Games

  • Scott's glad a Heinz version of Monopoly exists as Ketchup is best way to get him intrested in anything. Cue Scott going to a testicular cancer screening that promises free ketchup for sign-ups.
    • Later while Jeb plays the Game Boy version of Monopoly, out of nowhere the camera pulls back to Scott surrounded by bottles of ketchup.
    • While talking about the SNES version of Clue(do)'s flawed multi-player:
    Rex: You Fool! I don't believe in God!
  • Scott gets his grocery list and his Clue(do) notes mixed up and ends up buying 30+ bottles of mustard that he sits next to in hung head shame as Jeb and Rex keep playing.
  • When talking about how Jenga:World Tour has a 26 on Metacritic:
    Jeb: What, is it bad or something?
    (Cut to the game where Scott pulls just one piece and the whole tower falls)
    Rex: (calmly) No.
    (cut to the couch where Rex has a slab of wood in front of him)
    Jeb: That's not even good wood (pushes wood out of the way)
    Rex: MY GOD, WHAT THE F*CK IS THAT?
  • After Pictonary with the uDraw goes south, Scott’s last bet for a legitimate board game experience in video game form is Battleship for the Xbox 360 — which turns out to be the FPS based on the movie.
    Rex: I am gonna hit you with a blunt object!
    (cut to a bloody and battered Scott at his desk holding a blood-stained Boggle box)
    Scott: I do understand Boggle now.

248- Not for Resale

  • Scott makes a gameshow out of speculating on wether a "Not for Resale" game is a collector's item or not called "¢heap or $teep?". He didn't have any buzzers so he gave the contestants guns.

249- The Commercial Failure

  • Scott refers to Sleeping Dogs (2012) by such names as "Snoring Mutts" and "Exhausted Canines".
  • Awesome as it may be, "Just Buy The Games" as a whole is hilarious. Given how Scott wanted to create a charity song for the sole purpose of making sure no bad game gets left behind in the first place, his friends immediately turn it into something else by threatening violence on people who don't buy them. This causes Scott to do a 180 on his entire mission statement.
    • While Scott's singing is genuine...his friends might be questionably dubbed at best. Primarily, Jerry's singing "voice" is that of a powerful female singer, and later, a powerful male singer.
    • At the very end of the song (and episode), a half-faded-in Target Employee can be seen shilling for Target and about how all the games are sold there.

250- Merry Christmas, Data Design

  • Scott and the gang's latest hare-brain scheme is to compete with Santa and provide joy to the world from their workshop at the Left Pole (Scott's house).
  • Target Employee's job at the Left Pole is to open a door so everyone can go outside, this takes so much effort his hands bleed.
  • The chalkboard that appears in the background during most of the shots Jerry is on-screen.
    Chalkboard: Seconds Passed: (Rex is seen marking a new tally every second, getting to 37 before the camera cuts to the next shot)
    Chalkboard: Breaths: 3
  • Scott protests playtesting the Data Design games.
    Scott: We can't do that! We don't have time!
    Terry: Do we really want to risk the lives and safety of children everywhere?
    (Beat)
    Scott: Do we not wanna meet our deadline?!
  • While Scott talks about the early days of Data Design, he includes their early strategy games like Tobruk: The Clash of Armor, DNA Warriors and Annals of Rome which cuts to Rex, Jeb, Target Employee and Terry to laugh only for Rex to exclaim that he laughs at Tobruk.
  • The prospect of playing a strategy game from the 80's causes Scott to scream so loud he clips the mic.
  • When they cover Data Design's Jeopardy for the Game Boy, the rest of the gang proves to be just as bad at Jeopardy as Scott is.
    Game: Aesop Character that won by a "hare"
    Target Employee: Rapunzel.
    Incorrect
    Game: It's located between EST & MST
    Jerry: The letter s!
    Incorrect
    Game: Admirals - This father of the nuclear sub managed to serve 18 years beyond the compulsory retirement age
    Rex: Admiral? Cap'n Crunch!
    Jeb: No, not the cereal mascot! Write "Chocula".
    Incorrect
    Game: A nonet is a composition for this many musical instruments or voices
    Jerry: I don't speak Italian.
    Correct
  • When Scott starts talking about Conquest Earth, Data Design's latest strategy game from 1997, he realizes that it's their first original work not based on an existing IP released outside the UK, and gives them a round of applause....until he sees the GameSpot review.
    Scott: Damnit, go back! GO BACK!
    (the same footage of Scott clapping is played in reverse)
    Scott: Oh no, it sounds the SAME!
  • Scott notes that Europe had "pretty lenient guidelines" on what qualifies as a PlayStation 2 game, which led to the releases of such PS2 "games" as The Mouse Police.
    Scott: No! They DON'T MAKE CUFFS THAT SMALL!!!
  • Scott claims the European version of Sonic Colors has extra content... in that they spell Colours with an extra "U."
  • Thanks to obtaining the same licence, Scott claims that Data Design's terrible Kawasaki Jetski could be considered Spiritual Successor to Wave Race. Cue Scott on the couch doing the most distressed whimper imaginable.
  • Eventually, Scott finally finishes testing all of Data Design's games...only to realize that it took so long that it's now April, missing the deadline by four months and ruining the scheme to compete with Santa.
    Target Employee: Oh man, I had work a month ago.
    • Scott then encourages his team to celebrate the holiday season to all goodwill regardless, and they all go out carolling at people's doorsteps. They get a door slammed on them the second they start singing.
    • To make the out-of-season festivities even more ironic, technical issues forced Scott to release the video on January 7, 2023, well after Christmas, meaning he was late both in and out of universe.
  • The ending scene has Scott thanking Data Design for allowing him to experience their chronicle of bad games, and he wishes for a way to give them his best wishes for Christmas. One look at the Switch eShop later, and their bad sports games have been released once again.
