- DirectorJames RolfeStarsJames RolfeAfter the Nerd goes through a frantic frenzy about playing nothing but bad games, he finally settles down and randomly picks a NES game called Gyromite. When he starts the game he finds it unusual that you can't progress further into the game unless the second controller is being used with controls the barriers that prevents you from proceeding. The Nerd isn't sure who he can invite to help him play a bad game, until the robot named Rob appears and says he'll help the Nerd. It turns out that Rob the robot who was a Nintendo accessory was designed to play as a second player for the game Gyromite. However the Nerd finds the game boring even with the help of a robot. So he switches to the other game Rob is compatible for which is called Stack-Up. Not much of a game cause you're giving the robot command directly from the game itself. After no longer being to stand playing these two games, the Nerd tries to convince Rob to play a different game, only to be horrified that Rob can only play Gyromite and Stack-Up.

A tiny little gremlin who is the main cause of all game glitches. Upon trying to get rid of the gremlin, the Nerd discusses several games that contain glitches after being released in public. These glitches can make the games more interesting or make them a lot more helpful upon playing.

- DirectorJames RolfeStarsJames RolfeKyle RogersThe Nerd reviews a flight simulating NES game which is based off of the movie Top Gun. For an older flight simulating video game there isn't much to offer since it's made for the NES, but the confusing controls and lack of music makes the Nerd irritated. His main complaint goes to the landing the plane sequence which always results in the plane crashing into the ocean despite that the Nerd did his best to steer the plane in the correct coordinates.

- 2004– 7mTV-MA8.1 (366)TV EpisodeDirectorJames RolfeStarsJames RolfeThe Nerd grabs a beer and decides to review the first Ninja Turtles game for the NES. For a game that's based off of a kids show, it's not kid friendly when the platforms in the levels make it tricky for you to jump on and the rapid re-spawning of the enemies. The Nerd's main complaint is the electrifying seaweed which makes swimming under water more difficult than it seems. Not to mention that at some points in the game you're unable to get any of the turtles out of the water upon the land levels despite how they're able to swim in the underwater levels.

- DirectorJames RolfeStarsJames RolfeKyle RogersThe Nerd reviews Ikari Warriors for the NES. While the game at first appears to be a decent shoot 'em up game it's actually a really hard game to go through unless you have two people playing the game. Desperate to beat the game, the Nerd revives Guitar Guy who has been dead for sometime by using the Ikari Warrior continue code. The Guitar Guy is surprised to be alive again and originally believed that the Nerd had forgotten him cause the original theme song hasn't been used for so long.

After that they both discovered how long and tedious it takes to beat one level of Ikari Warriors. Their main complaint is the main character walk incredibly slow yet the enemies move faster.
