NERD NEWS
3/13/08 6 pieces of news. Ya ready? 1) New theme song covers: Remix by Cusimo & Co. Cover by FutureIdiots.com Hip Hop version by DJ Dub. New song by Keith Burgun. 2) Freddy's popped up in an odd place. I've SORT OF been featured on Rolling Stone's website. They have an article where they mention Nightmare on Elm Street (the movie series). Even though it doesn't seem to be AVGN related, notice the picture at the top. Look familiar? 3) New interview for the fans from Sweden. And if you're not from Sweden, it's still worth checking it out. 4) A nice review of my work as the AVGN. Check out the rest of the site at AnthonysFilmReview.com 5) What happened to the Nerd Comics? At the time, we're not keeping up with them. That doesn't mean there will never be any more, but for now check out Mike Matei's Deviant Art page instead. 6) Heads up on the new Nerd video! Some fans have suggested I do something big for my "50th video". I even got this piece of art from Iain. So that's the "Nerd News" for the day. That's the way the cookie crumbles. That's the way the diarrhea hits the fan! 3/10/08 Shit Pickle tattoos?!! Yes, it happened.
All videos starring Shit Pickle: Wizard of Oz 3: Dorothy Goes to Hell 3/9/08 Emergency: A friend needs your help! Devon Riley, known as "NES" on the Captain S show is recovering from emergency surgery. GOOD NEWS: He's going to be okay. BAD NEWS: He's in financial trouble, as the hospital bills are ridiculous.

3/8/08 CineMassacre's 200th film! This is not exactly AVGN related. It's my own retrospective on how I got started making films and how my hobby evolved. It happens to be my 200th film so I thought the idea would be appropriate. Hope you enjoy. Also, you can see it on YouTube.
3/6/08 There's an update for Eric Ruth's AVGN GAME. The controls are fixed and is smaller in size. So if you haven't played the updated version, check it out.
3/5/08 NEW VIDEO:
Also I made some updates on my links page. There's been 3 new mentions lately and several other requests for interviews in my inbox. If you're waiting, sorry it's taking so long. I'm really struggling to catch up with things. Article in Herald News by Ed Beeson, following my appearance at Digital Press store.
Other mentions! Korean interview on Pig-Min.com Brazilian magazine - SUPERINTERESSANTE I'm very behind on the fan art. It'll get updated sometime soon, I can't say when. My main priority is getting the videos done. But it'll be relatively soon. Also got some shirts sent in the mail by ComboBreaker.com. Very cool, check'em out. And I've added another fan cover of the AVGN theme song by Mat Howlett The biggest news I have, as far as my own personal projects go, there will be a 20-25 minute documentary coming soon entitled CineMassacre 200. It's my 200th movie and is my own retrospective on how I got started making films and how my hobby evolved. It will be posted on YouTube soon. That's all for now. Nerd signing out.
2/25/08 THE AVGN GAME by Eric Ruth. Unfortunately, it's only for PC, but that probably counts most of you, so give it a go!
2/22/08 VIRTUAL BOY OUTTAKE With overall positive reaction to my new Virtual Boy video, many fans have asked how I got the duct tape off my head. Well, this is how.
2/19/08 NEW VIDEO:
2/13/08 * The new video was supposed to go up last night, but there was just a little misunderstanding. It's no big deal and everything's cool. It'll go up next week (Feb 20th). Sorry about the wait. It'll be worth it. The new video's 15 minutes long. 2/4/08 * Has it been 2 weeks? Well don't worry, the new nerd video is in the works. Between business, personal life and other projects, it's just been taking a while to finish. It's one that I've been planning for a long time, I bet you all know what it is. * I've been busy finishing a documentary that will premiere at the Philadelphia Film Festival this April. More info on that later. * People keep asking what's up with my YouTube stats. Yes, I'm fully aware. I am still the #8 Most Subscribed Channel of All Time. I have 95,479 subscribers which aren't going anywhere, but for whatever reason, my honors aren't showing at the very moment. I don't know what it is, it could be just a glitch. HELP ME GET MY WORK SEEN BY GEORGE ROMERO! If you're curious to see the full 17 minute version, As always, go to my Movies page, to see the rest of my work. 1/23/08 New Video! RAMBO, go watch it.
I was on the Opie and Anthony show (national radio!) The show:

1/3/08 Dear MagFest Attendees: BAD NEWS Since the day after Christmas, I've been really sick. My throat is all fucked up and I got the shakes. I expected to feel better by MagFest, but instead it's just getting worse and worse. Today, I have no voice, so I couldn't even speak to do a Q&A. It's also ruining production on the next episode, I'll have to be the Angry Sign-Language Video Game Nerd. Anyway, that'll be taken care of, because I have an unreleased video, ready to go, which is my trump card, my last resort. But to all those attending MagFest, maybe you'll see me, maybe you won't. I'm trying to stay in bed and feel better. Anyone coming all the way there to get an autograph by me or anything, I'm real sorry that this has happened. It's disappointing me, just as much as you. I was really looking forward to coming down. It's not like I make public appearances very often, so it's a real downer that I have to get sick for the holidays and MagFest. It's just my luck. Hope you enjoy MagFest, with or without me. -James
1/2/08 Looking back at last year, here are the Top 10 AVGN moments of 2007!
1/1/08 Happy New Year! I've been interviewed on Micro-Shock.com. It's a good one. They also reviewed my zombie film The Deader the Better. I'll also be appearing at MagFest on Friday. I'll probably conduct a Q&A or screen some Nerd videos and maybe show some new outtakes. There's no definite, announced time. I would say, get there early. More info at Magfest.org
12/28/07 I'll be appearing at MagFest. See more details here.
12/20/07 So I've had plenty of interviews lately. Here's the latest.
Interview on Shamoozal radio (I'm at the 12 minute mark.) Interview on TigerWeekly.com by Brian Fontenot Article in Rutgers-Newark Newspaper "The Observer." I've also been in touch with Opie & Anthony, so if you listen to their show, stay tuned because I will be dropping by sometime soon. Also, I've gotten many AVGN Christmas-related songs sent in. Check'em out.
12/18/07 12/9/07 Interview on IGN. (subscription needed) AVGN fan fiction by Charles Xavier. Page on HowToBeLike.com. Pretty funny. CNN Headline News aired "You Know What's Bullshit, episode #2 - Pennies" on "News to Me." Check it out! And also, the AVGN Christmas episode will most likely be released in two parts, and before Christmas for sure, so hang in there, it's on the way.
12/3/07 11/25/07 11/22/07 11/21/07 Then got back from a vacation and look at all the stuff that's happened while I've been away. * First of all, the new video is up! * Second, we've been on Spike TV! * Then... I don't want to jinx it, but it looks like I finally have a Wikipedia page. Let's see how long it takes before it gets deleted. * Then, I noticed another nice article about me. * Also, a recent interview from VGXPO 2007 has surfaced, done by PBC Productions. * And last, but certainly not least, the biggest news we've all been waiting for: The price is $18.98. Within the U.S., there's a flat shipping rate of $7.00. Outside the U.S, the shipping rate can vary. Keep in mind, the DVDs are packed with 4 hours of content. THE BAD NEWS - The movie clips used in the Back to the Future and Rocky reviews have been removed, as well as any other videos that had copyrighted content, including music. I know that may be disappointing, but it would be our ass getting sued. Not yours. The internet is one thing, but when you're selling it, it can be a different story. Just wanted to end that debate before it starts. THE GOOD NEWS - To make up for anything that I removed from the videos, I put new stuff in! The Wally bear and Rocky videos have new endings! The Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street videos have a new original soundtrack by Justin Sobers (Zalai.com) and it sounds much better! WHAT'S ON THE DVD's DISC 1 BONUS FEATURES * NOTE * I'd like people to know that the documentary is from January 2007, so comments expressed DO NOT reflect any current events. DISC 2 BONUS FEATURES NO NEW VIDEOS? - Many people are wondering why none of the videos from 2007 are included. Well, that's already about 4 hours worth of content right there. Yes, we are planning to release the new videos on DVD eventually. But FIRST, let's get the old ones out. Anyway, that's the news, if you're someone who helped with the DVD and I already promised you a copy, it will be on the way as soon as I get them. For those who apply, Happy Thanksgiving, and see ya later.

11/2/07 10/31/07 Hope you enjoy my Halloween themed videos. Since last year's videos were based on Freddy and Jason, I decided that I had to do Leatherface and Michael Myers this year. Since the games are on Atari 2600, there's really not much to say about them, but it's fucking Halloween, so it's mandatory! Anyway, I have to tend to other things in my life and am taking a much needed break. There will be one video out sometime in November, but it'll be short and basic like one of the old videos such as Karate Kid or TMNT. Whatever it'll be, I'm making it easier on myself, but it'll be classic Nerd. Til then, Happy Halloween! 10/25/07 10/19/07 10/12/07
10/10/07 10/7/07 The official Nerd Comix now have their own site! Check it out. 10/6/07 CAMEO! 10/1/07 October is here! And to celebrate this Halloween season, I'll be posting reviews of horror movies EVERY DAY in October! (as well as two elaborate AVGN videos on GameTrailers.com) The horror reviews will roughly be in chronological order as I'll be taking you from the past to the present. Just subscribe to my "Cinemassacre" YouTube account. (I WON'T be posting them on the "JamesNintendoNerd" account.)

8/17/07 I spent the last week in Las Vegas for WEVA's videographer convention. DVideography and I attended the seminars, and I did a commentary for a wedding video I edited. To some fans' surprise, I dropped no F-bombs. Also, we submitted some of our company's videos to a contest and swept up some awards. We also went to a fake wedding for the purpose of demonstrating camera techniques. Later that night, I went into "Angry Nerd mode", or "Crazy Cinemassacre mode" and as a result, we made this video: Feel free to embedd it with this code.
8/8/07 On the fucking radio! Opie and Anthony laugh their asses off over Angry Nerd videos! Awesome! Listen to the audio! (Thanks Mike for sending)

7/18/07 New video! A Simpsons Double feature! 7/15/07 Back from my trip! Had a good time but a hectic crazy time at E3. Attended the press conferences, met a lot of fans, game designers and website staff. Went to a lot of the after parties, had a lot of free booze, sat 4 seats away from Stan Lee, held a monkey, and played a lot of upcoming games such as Contra 4, Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Super Mario Galaxy, Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles, Resident Evil with the Wii Zapper, and the Wii fit games. If you have 54 minutes to spare, you can see the talk show we did for Coin-Op TV. It was LIVE. After a tiring week at E3, I was nearly falling asleep during the show. If you skip to about 31:30, I recite the famous TMNT rant! In a Batman outfit!!! You can also see our videos from E3, on ScrewAttack.com, there's 4 videos on the main page. The gallery page has been updated tremendously! Check it out. Look out for my Simpsons game review, this week. 7/9/07 I'll be flying out to California tomorrow, as I've been invited to E3. Check on Screwattack.com for coverage. and Here's the 4th of July video!
6/30/07 Hi fans, I will be away for a couple weeks in July which means there probably won't be any updates to the site for a while and I won't be answering many emails til later, so if you tried to reach me, please be patient. But there will be two Angry Video Game Nerd releases as planned. One on the 4th of July, and one on the 18th of July, I believe. So check in here. http://gametrailers.com/screwattack.php Have a great holiday. -James
