Day Dreamin' Davey
The Nerd reviews a NES game called Day Dreamin' Davey which features a very bland story about a kid who keeps falling asleep and is amazed by basic objects. The Nerd's main complaint about the game is the constant reusing of only three dream worlds which are a Medievil World, Roman World, and the Wild West. While the levels themselves have no logic when it comes to item locations and the number of hits it takes to kill an enemy. This game is so bad that the Nerd would rather dream of playing a better game than Day Dreamin' Davey.

Star Wars
The Nerd does a review on the first home console Star Wars games all the way to the ones made in the mid-90s. When it comes to Star Wars, it's such a huge franchise that making video game adaptations is a good way to expand it. Doing this task lead to certain video game developers to develop both hard and unusual Star Wars games. The hardest game the Nerd plays is the Famicon version which gives you no life bar and only three continues and a start-all-over-from-the-beginning type of game. Out of all of the games, the Nerd praises the Super Star Wars game for the Super...

R.O.B. the Robot
After 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 ...

Spielberg Games
The Nerd reviews certain video games all based off of Speilberg movies. Starting with Jaws for the NES, which the Nerd complains that the concept is boring when all you do is collect sea shells in order to get power ups that'll allow you to kill the shark quicker. The second game he reviews is Hook for the NES, which is sadly a poorly executed plat-former game resembling nothing like the movie. The Nerd then reviews several Jurassic Park games that are either appealing to play or are contain annoying concepts. Out of all of them, the Nerd regards the 3DO version to be...

Kid Kool
Kid Kool for the NES is a rushed slide scroller game that fell into obscurity. The Nerd reviews the game and already finds the title to be misleading when the main character looks nothing like the one on the cartridge cover and it's no where close to being "cool". The Nerd's main complaint is the jumping controls aren't that responsive and random placements of hidden item blocks which creates a hazard when trying to jump to another area or trying to jump on enemies.

Nintendo World Championships
The Nerd won several NES cartridges from an online auction. Among the games included was the 1990 Nintendo World Championships game. The only NES game the Nerd doesn't own, because it is so rare that authentic copies of the game cost at least $10,000. The game included in the auction deal however was not a legit copy, but just a reproduced edition that is more common to obtain. When all else fails, Nerd contacts a fellow gamer named Pat the NES Punk for a trade in between his box of games for Pat's own NWC game. Upon Pat's observing of the box of game, he find an ...

Bible Games III
The Nerd does one final review on Bible Games licensed and unlicensed alike. Cause he makes it clear that he doesn't want to do a Bible Game 4 review. So he reviews the Bible game for Game Boy which has the entire Bible on the game as well as a hang man style game that only uses words from the old English language. The most amusing thing about the game is that the Nerd is able to do a word search on the Bible and discovered there's a lot of A-words in various bible verses. While the most obscured game he reviews for this review is a game called 6 in 1. Which is ...
