Synopsis

An adult-oriented web comedy created by and starring James Rolfe, The Angry Video Game Nerd features scathing, humorous retrospectives on older video games—especially those notorious for clumsy design, excessive difficulty or overall poor quality. The show launched on YouTube, went on to air through ScrewAttack Entertainment, and later became exclusive to GameTrailers. Its name was changed to avoid trademark problems with Nintendo and to reflect a broader focus that includes non‑Nintendo systems such as Atari and Sega. Rolfe portrays "the Nerd," a short‑fused, foul‑mouthed gaming fanatic whose exaggerated temper, inventive profanity and frequent drinking are used for comic effect as he dismantles the worst of classic gaming.
