I love it when James shares a little of his past with us. :)
K1ngCraft I FUCKING LIKR ANGRY VIDEO GAME NERD
Me to K 1ngCraft
Missed oppurtunity to call it. I love when James takes us back to the past.
I'm just surprised at how far ahead he planned. Like he filmed this room tour footage YEARS before actually uploading it.
James is a cool guy.
Not just a cool guy he is an awesome person that makes all of us laugh our ass off.
thejoker655 than grow it back so it can fall off again watching a new episode ^.^
Yeah, and so is Mike...
@Tool0GT92 Yes
Tell me something new
Re-visiting that 2006 room brings back memories of watching those episodes for the first time. That's how long you've been around now, you're giving people nostalgia.
Lol this comment aged horribly
ha you lost against h3
Hell dude thank you for inspiring tons of people on youtube to even wanna get up, smash in the record button on a camera, and make video game related shit on here. Been a fan since early 2007 and still watch the fuck outta everything you make man, keep it goin \m/
Alpha!? You're a fan was well! I love you even more!
AlphaOmegaSin it great hearing how he got started
I’ll drink to that!
Mike is such a motherfucking boss for lending/giving james his stuff to put in the episodes. He's done SOO much for James and in return so has james. beautiful bromance if there ever was one
Started as a tour, ended with tears
Good thing i'm not the only one that cried..
Thank you James ;(
Not too many people really would take the time to do a thank you episode to their fans but James does it and done well. Thank you James for countless laughs and for keeping me entertained on those insomniatic nights. Not a word but whatever.
I couldn't have said it any better
Most do actually
Thanks for sharing this James.
I personally am 24 years old, I'm working a job that is sucking me dry, and I can only afford to pay my bills and my free time is spent gaming.
It's comforting to know that even at 26 it was possible to turn your situation around and find your calling. Now I just hope I can find mine!
In the same boat :)
You have the same situation as the nerd had, that's a connection.
Three years later - any progress?
Five year update? How are you doing, DaGleese?
Any change?
How I expected the tour to go:
James: So here's the games, and here's the consoles.
This was a lot more detailed lol
Huh, I had no idea that James had so many issues going on at that time. And yet he still managed to make these episodes on a regular basis AND kept getting better. THAT'S being dedicated to something you love.
Too bad so many jobs drain you to the point where your free time at home is mostly spent just recharging for more drudgework at an unfulfilling workplace. Pursuing your hobbies or interests? Not enough time or you lack the needed energy.
The room of my dreams O_O
Bella bella bella! Intuisco che in casa non ha gatti.
Alessandro Muraro James does have a cat.
Alessandro Muraro
Actually, I think he does have a cat
Anch'io ne ho qualcuno e ogni tanto li trovo dietro le console.
you dream of a room of 1 good game for every 50 shitty ones?
Nerd, you came from such humble beginnings. That's the mark of any true star, not a celebrity (those vampiric bloodsucking parasites) a true star. You've also been true to yourself over the years, haven't changed your principles or ideology, you've always been about the fans.
Most importantly though, you have an incredible wife for sticking with you, even through the hard times. You deserve it all though Nerd, I will probably continue to be reduced to hysterical tears from laughing at your content, and I hope (should you choose to) for years to come, you will carry on entertaining us all.
This aged incredibly well :)
Makes me proud to have bought your DVDs man!
Little did I know I was directly enabling you to even continue AVGN.
So glad you did. Love your work!
Oh absolutely. Good post
Thank you Mike for encouraging James to make more AVGN.
It's 2014 and he's still the best gaming reviewer on the internet!
Mr. Atari 2600 message from 2017. Even though james is making less and less video, quality wise, no one can stand against
He is uploading monthly in 2019

We should be thanking you, James- you've touched us all and made our lives better.
How?
Acdeportivo2 You need to shut up sometimes
Acdeportivo2 Watch the video
***** God you guys, acdeportivo2 is right.. it hasn't made life better, but it sure has been interesting to watch. Sad you gang up on someone being honest. Fun to watch? Yes! Make life better? fuck no.
Ferenc Szabo so it is better labeled a distraction. I'm not saying it hasn't been used (by some) as a distraction from their struggles. Been there done that numerous times, just think it is improper to say it made life better considering :P
Hearing you talk about how it was for you before you hit it big describes exactly where I'm at in my life right now. I'm working to build my channel but i'm still at that stage with the job and stuff, making videos in my free time. You have given myself and many other the inspiration to do what we really want to in our lives, just have to remain passionate about what we do. Thank you James.
Wait... A+start?!?! Well well well. Like if vids too.
A+Start some,of a glitch
What does James do for a living now?
Holy shit...A+ fucking made it, dreams come true
Now you almost have 700,000 thousand
I remember every day after school during grade 7, I'd go to my friends house and we'd watch your new episode before doing any homework. If there wasn't a new episode, then we'd just watch an old one again. I haven't realized how much the room has progressed but I did realize how much better the videos got. And to be honest, if you continued making videos till this day in standard definition. It wouldn't have mattered to me. You still would have 1.4 million subs and a huge fan base. Keep it up James. You're one CZcamsr I'm proud to always be subscribed too and will always support. You were the reason I started my gaming channel, and the reason I don't give up when I feel like my channel is going no where. Thanks a lot James, thanks a lot. Hope the wife and kid are well. :)
Avgn deserves an Oscar ^^
Wow. This is pretty powerful. It kinda gives a new feeling to the older Nerd episodes, knowing that you were balancing a job and everything on top of it, and still knowing you had the time and patience to make those episodes. Now I'm not saying I'll stop watching the old episodes, but it just gives them a new weight. Also, I just want to thank you, because you've changed my life in a way. You've introduced me to the joys of video games, new and old. I bought a Sega Genesis off of eBay a week ago. I'll be getting a 3DS on Christmas. I'm starting to look into video games and enjoy/appreciate them more than I used to. Your videos have also had me laughing when times were tough. Thank you.
Who's cutting onions in here? Damn you :,)
XD
Bender Rodriquez X,D
***** XD
you got a heavy dose of the feels my man, i was getting them too.
True thing, I had to fight those pesky tears back because we all know that struggle. That doesn't get born in to rich family's or things just handed to us. We go out and get it. Some times it takes our whole lives or a short time in years. Depends on how bad you want it and how you treat those around you. Good day to you sir.
We love you James. You're an inspiration to us all.
That girlfriend is a keeper!
Who else gets depressed when thinking of the past?
Depending on someones current life situation for some people looking into the past will depict memories of an easier time in their lives or something/someone that has gone and they miss that feeling. I miss lots especially having more enjoyment out.of video games at the age of 6 than I do now at 21. I believe what you are feeling is fairly common.
xWHEETO123x Yeah true, the older you get, the more responsibilities you're supposed to have. Though I still enjoy video games, they aren't as memorable as in the past. The 'magic' has gone.
Bilb Ono THIS IS A FANTASTIC EXPLANATION!! I could not have said it better myself
TheGebs24 Yeah true. It's more melancholy than depression. It's a great emotion, but also makes you somewhat sad.
Kleavers I hear ya mate! It's kinda haunting right?
Keep kicking ass James
Kyle Sunshine AVGN hater eh?
Kyle Sunshine ur an idiot get off the video jackass
Obviously kyle sunshines comments
Kyle Sunshine good one
Idiot
From one James to another. You are humble and appreciate all that you have. You deserve all the success you have, because of all the hard work you have put into AVGN and Cinemassacre. Much more success to come... AVGN MOVIE!
Lets hope he makes another movie, and i dont mean another AVGN movie.
***** I want Board James Movie .. or just more eps
I remember in one video he said he wants to make a movie about the mysterious neighbor hood watch guy in a trenchcoat
You should do Draw my life video man ... you are really awesome and you are doing great job :)
He almost doesn't really need to do a Draw my life cause he's already made videos and he's talked a lot about what he did as a kid and growing up.
raGdOllsAM But it would still be really nice to have everything summed up in one recap.
Something to chain all of the events together. Between the stuff he did as a kid, his early movies, avgn, cinnemassacre and now the movie James' story certainly sounds like it would have lots of ups and downs and make for a great Draw my life.
Haggy Yes, draw my life! How do we get this to happen, James?
Haggy that is for bullshit egocentric youtubers...
That would be awesome!
Your Quite Welcome.
I've always enjoyed watching your Nerd Episodes when ever they come out.
Cool insight. It's kind of weird to see how small the game collection was back then relative to how it is now. I always just assumed it was always massive.
Same here.
I'd love to be in that room for even 5 minutes
It's gamer heaven...
...but also hell.
what to try first..
Casey Dunbar Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, of course!
Pause
That's the power of classic CZcams. I feel like we've all been one big family or group of friends since 06. I never met the nerd and I never met any of you, but we all still gained from one another. For all the days that I needed an escape and a good laugh, the nerd was there. Through all the hardships, we were there for him too. That's how the internet should work. Thanks, James, for all the years of hard work and hilarious videos. Keep it up and never quit.
This was 8 years ago?! Holy fuck I feel old....
Nah man, 11 years ago.
Don't thank us James, you earned it.
We're with you until the end James
@@kyledgoalby4456 💯
This was my second youtube channel I subscribed to, when I first got internet back in 2008, albeit it was a different account. It was AVGN that got me interested in nintendo, and understanding nintendo for all its glory, as well as look at other game systems. To this day, i've been doing my bet to become an avid game nerd...
that moment when 2006 was 8 years ago.
Damn. Time flies.
9 years ago now.
Damian Stachelski 12 years ago now.
actually it is 11 years as of now
JeehoonOh 17 years now. I am from the future
I remember watching my first episode of AVGN when I started TAFE (college) in 2008 on GameTrailers. The first one I saw the Atari Jaguar Part 1, having heard of the console, but never having seen what it could do. I then continued to watch, and even to this day, I believe I have watched every single episode at least 5 times.
You are doing a phenomenal job, and I hope to see more episodes in the future!
No James! Thank you for the entertainment! Youre my favorite youtuber on here as of yet, the nostalgia you bring to me is immense, whatever you do from now up until whatever years you shall live (which i hope is an assload) that you love doing what you doing and keep pushing on! Good luck on your movie release and much love.
I have to say,as far as nerd fans go,I'm pretty new!! I just started watching the nerd videos on CZcams about 6 months ago. But I've come to appreciate your dedication and hard work as well as your devotion to what you love and your fans very quickly!! Your a talented and funny dude. You've had me laughing my ass off many nights now. You've made start to appreciate all those by gone games,systems and years I spent playing them alot more than I ever used to!! Thanks for what u do man!! I truly appreciate it and wish you happiness and success in the future!!
although my youtube career is mostly over (at least for series and other video game runthroughs) you were the one who inspired me to do what I did. I created a humble but a fairly good sized fanbase. Had loads of fun and played games I would have never tried before, and had a blast.
so I wanna say thank you right back, still gotta get an autograph from you at some point.
Actually, James inspired me to NOT do reviews, since I realized I could never do such great work as he does, but he do give me lots of joy and happiness through his and Mike´s amazing videos, which I love to watch. I have my own calling and career in other area, but I do love Jame´s work.
But on the other hand, James was the one who inspired me to make the few videos I have on my channel now. He was like, the first thing I ran into when I first found youtube and although my content is completely different, it was watching him that made me want to join youtube and do my own stuff.
I can recall discovering the angry nerd back in 2007-08. I was in college and was always great to see a new video had gone up.
Ive been a avgn fan for 4 years. Thanks for the entertainment!
its now 7 years buddy! =D
Now it's 8 years buddy
Youre videos are the best on CZcams. Thanks for all the laughs Nerd.
Thanks for all your hard work, James!
I had no idea the collection was that small. If I paid close enough attention, I could have figured it out too.
No James Thank you for not only showing us The Nerd but yourself as a man
I started watching you when I was a junior in high school (back in 2009-2010), and your videos always cracked me up to the point of tears, and they were an awesome distraction from the humdrum of my life. You deserve all that you've achieved with your life and your videos. You even have your own full length movie now that I believe will be better than a lot of the movies we have today! You've gotten very far, James, and you're gonna go even farther. Thank you for all of this awesome content, and I look forward to much more.
That honestly brought a tear to my eye. You go James. We all love you!
James is the fuckin man. That's real talk he just preached. When he spoke about coming straight from work and going right to doing an episode, I said "amen, bro". I make videos as a hobby too and it really can drain the life outta you. I don't make shit as great as he does, since my videos are much more random, but I understand the time it takes and the energy it demands.
Years later. This is still brings happiness to me
Not even going to lie, some nerdly tears may have escaped at the end there.
Been watching your videos since late 2006. Never stop it, my friend.
Personally id like to think that the angry video game nerd was the cornerstone of youtubing video games especially video game reviews the people i watch on youtube had been inspired by you. All in all we should thank you more for helping to make the internet a much more fun, hilarious and overall entertaining experience
Thanks to you James =)
Blown away with this. Well done James! And I think that it is great that you take to thank your fans. There are SO SO SO many CZcamsrs that don't say thank you enough! Well done mate.
No prob man, your videos always put a good smile on my face and if they help you out. Then that just makes them that much more enjoyable.
And thank you! For making these awesome videos.
You came a long way. Hard work definitely pays off in the end.
Guy deserves his own show on tv.
Your 2006 game room looks like my 1998 game room.
Holy shit has it almost been 10 years? Good god.
We don't do "Good God", we do "Great Scott!".
The pleasure is ours, James. His story just proves that, no matter how dire a situation may get, there's almost always an outlet and a way to get back on your feet.
Thank you James, for all your videos - it's very awesome. You are the best!
theres the moment you realize that 2006 wasnt 4 years ago, that is 8 years ago holy shit, the nerd must have a wall of fame on the youtube company
Technically 10 years now if you include his first Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde video, and a couple of others before that, which he said were filmed back in 2004.
james should do an episode with his wife!
My friend showed me about AVGN. So far, I'm enjoying his entertainment. Thanks so much, James. :)
I don't think anyone else realizes it, but the day that this video was uploaded was the 10th year anniversary of the AVGN. The first episode Castlevania 2 was uploaded on April 8 2004 on screw attack and cinemassacre... HAPPY 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY NERD !!!!!!!!!!
No way, thank you James. I hope that you're film is successful and that you keep doing this for a long, long time.
Thanks for everything James!
It's kinda hard for me to grasp the idea that internet people have very real
and occupationally consuming lives that we seem to ignore because
of our demand for production and entertainment which I feel I take for granted.
I had no idea James even had a girlfriend ( I mean, c'mon. he plays a nerdy online
ego, what could I have assumed? ) and I've been watching him since I was eight.
I'm now fifteen and come to appreciate James' videos much more than I used to.
his contributions and devotion to his fans is outstanding, and I think
he definitely sets a benchmark for achievement and entertainment value.
thank you for the hard work all these years, mr.nerd. you don't go by unappreciated.
*wife
and he has a daughter now too :D.
yeah, I know, but a girlfriend at the time
Two daughters. Time moves fast.
I still remember the first time I saw an AVGN episode back in 2006, It was also the first time I had ever laughed so hard watching something. I was hooked from then on and of course I knew the nerd would be a success, one of my roommates at the time watched an episode I left open on CZcams, when I got back he asked me about the AVGN, who was this guy and why didn't I show him before how funny the series was, and long story short, he was hooked from that day on too.
I remember that as well when I first discovered the AVGN (which was then known as the "Angry Nintendo Nerd" as a pilot in the first few episodes). This first run of videos was filmed in the apartment. His collection was a pack rat back then before moving in to another location. I did a lot of mess since I was young when my parents told me to clean it up and got mad when I wasn't paying attention.
Now we need a complete Nerd Room Tour 2014
Damn... I've been watching avgn since 2009... Almost 7 years ago....!
You Reposted in the Wrong Neighbourhood same lol
Now it's 10 years ago!
Thanks for everything, James. Been watching your videos since 2007, and I can't get enough of them.
Before the days of lights on the ceiling
James seems so nice, and you just wouldn't expect that from his nerd episodes. For me at least.
"But that added to some of the charm of the early episodes."
Yeah, a charm that the newer episodes haven't been able to match.
Truly happy for you & your family James , don't think anyone can imagine how hard must be to balance between work, family, your passion for making videos. You put a lot of effort & enjoy especially the videos you're explaining about editing commentary & your personal shows AVGN Board James. Hope you know how much we respect all this hard work thank you so much!
Love you James we will always support you. Your talent should not be wasted. Your videos inspired me to collect again, and now my life is so much richer. I get to go to the Portland Retro Gaming Expo with a press pass, and I owe it all to you. Hope you will be there, that would be so crazy I would lose my head.
Thank you James . . . Thank you!
Thumbs up; I'm an engineering student that wanted to do LPs for fun, but I can't even edit the videos any more because I'm too tired / demotivated to work on them because of my work/study responsibilities. Your resolve is inspirational; I think we're all glad that you're doing so well now.
Thank you James! You really have influenced my life! Your nerd episodes brought my creative side back out.
My boyfriend and I have started building our collection. When we get to spend time together we are always playing Nintendo, or Sega or whatever else we can get our hands on. It's my favorite part of every week.
We watch your videos over and over and over, and quote them constantly.
We even started buying our favorite shitty games from the nerd episodes.
Thank you so much, I really mean that.
Best of luck on future episodes, James. :)
AVGN is one of the most inspirational CZcamsrs out there.
Just seeing your old games collection from 2006 and now just let's me speechless.
Thank you too James
James I’ve been watching your videos for about as long as they’ve been around and I can’t tell you how much I love them and appreciate the effort you’ve put into all this. It’s great to see your success and I am happy that things have been this successful for you. Your legacy is amazing! AVGN forever!
I hope you have many more years to come, doing what you love, you'll always be one of the bigger youtube personalities in my eyes and the eyes of many. There aren't many who can do a thank you vid and sound humble and honest, but you do, keep up the good work, I'll be continuing to support where I can.
James. We love ya, buddy. Thanks for making us laugh.
Wow hearing your story made me cry . I know for a fact you will grow and grow in anything you do. You have no idea what your videos have inspired me to be what I want to be. Plus all the bad things that have happened in my life , just coming home and watching the nerd made all the crap disappear . I hope one day it can have a chance to meet you:) ps last halloween I dressed up like the nerd and everyone knew who I was lol:) God speed Nerd!
Much love Movie Junky
I've watched for many years now, never typed a comment or said thank you.......so a sincere THANK YOU James! Keep up the great, creative work and do it as long as it makes you money and makes you happy, you've made me happy for long enough now. From a UK fan.
James, you're amazing, thank you for all these years, you deserve all the good things. and Mike, you are really the true friend.
Stuck in a dead-end job that's sucking you dry, and have no room for advancement opportunities really sucks. I'm in that same situation that James was in.
***** Thanks a bunch!! Greatly appreciate it. =D
I'm upset I've discovered this video just now.
I was late to the party, I only got here about a year ago. But I have binge watched everything I can find. James, you and Mike are awesome. I cannot wait for the movie.
Words can not describe what an important part of my life your (and NCs) videos became. I watch your show since 2006 an now i realize what a long time we've been through. Its nice to see that you're still there, just to entertain us, week by week, video by video. They're just make me laugh like back than. Even when you just sitting with mike on your couch and play some games and have this conversations. It's like good old friends which sitting next to me. Thanks for all that and whats coming in the future. Thanks James and of course Mike. Greetings from Germany!
I am so glad to be part of your succes. 🍺🍻🍺🍻
You guize need to thank Mike for keeping the nerd alive. I don't care what you say, I have a lot of respect for him as well as James.
I'm just one of these guys that honestly arrived late, like really late to the party. The first time I watched you was your episode of Ghosts and Goblins in 2012. I didn't help any way back then, but I'm glad I support you now, and I'm glad I can count on you to keep me happy with these videos! I also can't wait to watch the movie, I hope it gets shipped to my country and we can watch it in the cinema as well. Thanks for everything James and Mike, and everyone else (supporters/viewers/producers/actors/etc) who made the AVGN happen until this far. Thank you all.
thank you from all of us that have been watching since the beginning. many things seem to have changed in your life and many have in mine over the course of the nerd's lifespan but they have always provided us with entertainment and im glad we could contribute to making your life better and that you could do the same to ours a little with your entertaining videos. all the best now and in the future
