LJN History and Movie Games (Episode 200) - Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN)

Visit Rusty Quill for an amazing selection of podcasts about horror, tabletop RPGs, and much much more!! rustyquill.com Thanks to them for sponsoring AVGN Episode 200 Part 1!!
This is episode 200 of the Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN), a review of every game published by LJN. This is part 1 of 3, with the others coming very soon. LJN has been a thorn in the Nerd's side for 15 years now. With the sudden rights falling into his hands, the Nerd has decided to remake every LJN game as good as possible. However, he'll need to review every LJN game ever made (while Back to the Future gets re-developed.) Thankfully, the Nerd has already reviewed a lot of the LJN library... but, there's a lot of garbage he hasn't played yet to complete the 67 LJN titles released.
PART 1: • LJN History and Movie ...
PART 2: • LJN Sports and Marvel ...
PART 3: • LJN Wrestling and Othe...

Little disclaimer: This episode was split into 3 parts because it's runtime is over an hour long in total. This made it easier to edit as we go. Also, Episode 200 was not made to sell a video game. The BTTF game you see (made in Unity by Sam) is just a plot device and not a "real" releasable game. Regardless, Sam's Unity files will be put online for free at the end of the 200 saga, next week. However, there is an upcoming 8-Bit NES AVGN game coming late next year, but it is completely unrelated to these episodes. Sorry if anyone was a little confused!

[@KimSjopi]

There's going to be two more parts

[@john-evanbear8783]

In other words it's mostly a clip show.

[@MacenW]

ATLUS?! PERSONA ATLUS?! They really stepped it up. Thanks Sega!

[@tonydeluna8095]

Angry Video game nerd new and older episodes are always watchable one of the best on KZbin!

[@Swarm3513]

Best magic trick ever. Could definitely fool Penn and Teller.

[@LordHorst]

How awesome would it be if James could display that "FU" trophy on his shelf.

[@Browningate]

I can picture Allison introducing him. "And now, let's hear a warm welcome for the Angry Videogame Nerd!"

[@joshuamazzuto1558]

Gotta say.....wasn't expecting a clip show.

[@ps1neville]

A compilation for episode 200? What a copout lol

[@Destroyah5000]

Gotta give credit to the YTPer Deepercutt for making 12:30 a running joke during an old tennis match.

[@teviathon]

A clip episode to celebrate your 200th video?

[@princessmarlena1359]

Owning LJN is like holding the deed to an abandoned, derelict amusement park.

[@BigEWR]

I can't believe you made it this far. Since your 200th episode is a multi-part episode on LJN, we can tell this is going to be a lot of fun.

[@RFGSwiss]

This is basically a clipshow of past times.

[@codyeveryday5432]

I'm 20 min in, I'm praying for something

[@belstar1128]

Yea i am disappointed.

[@mr.wetdream5277]

@@belstar1128 its a three parter, stay tuned

[@joelsf4857]

I just realized I've been following James since I found the original Angry Nintendo Nerd videos in the mid 2000s, longer than many franchise or series I've followed in my life; James has been a consistent part of my upbringing well into adulthood and I just have to appreciate that, it's been such a ride!

[@jasonmages4323]

I hadn't realized I've watched 200 episodes of AVGN until I reached this point in the timeline. James is working towards accomplishing 20 years of AVGN.

[@benm6861]

Congrats on making it to the 200th episode James! 👍 thanks for making some of the best KZbin videos of my childhood

[@30somethingmanchild]

Been watching since Back to the Future. Have enjoyed many, many years of AVGN. My only disappointment on episode 200 is that it is partially a clip show...

[@DanIsNotHome]

Worry not, this is a multi part episode! We're just getting warmed up and primed with this part 😁

[@30somethingmanchild]

@@DanIsNotHomeTo quote another of my favourite KZbinrs "Wow wow wow wow wow!". "Well, ok then". "Fair enough!" 😁 In that case, I look forward to the next part. I'm guessing it was difficult to put episode 200 together?

[@DanIsNotHome]

@@30somethingmanchild If I had to make some wild guesses.. it could be that AVGN loves Back to the Future that much that he wanted to lovingly imitate it's 3 part layout.. even the to be continued at the end is almost an exact from the end of BttF part 1 hehe Also, maybe 3x 20 minute part videos nets gets him more KZbin monies vs 1x 60 minute video.. that's just wild speculation on my part since I really have no idea how KZbin monetisation works at all

[@JonathanThe501st]

I'd have loved it if James actually did end up being given ownership of the LJN trademark and started publishing games as an indie studio. Sigh, a man can dream...

[@NeoArashi]

AVGN Adventures 3: an LJN Game.

[@masterofremakes64]

LJN could have been a publishing label between EA and Soyuzmultfilm.

[@shawnfurl4854]

I'm so glad I remember those old videos! You were part of my childhood, James. Keep on reviewing!

[@Colspex]

8:23 - The nerd ends the call by pressing Spacebar! Love it!

[@leverposteifantomet]

I'm genuinely so happy you're still around and still making these James. Thank you for countless hours of entertainment

[@cbkirby6199]

This is a promising start to the 3 parter. Hope the “LJN game remakes” are actually playable when they are finished. Crazy to think that episode 200 is here! Here’s to episode 300!

[@micohdeguzmandmd]

LJN episode? Oh this is going to be a certified hood classic.

[@dead_legs_8425]

You explained my childhood experience with cutthroat island perfectly. I could never get past the second level as a kid

[@yoggs]

Episode 200!? Wow! That's amazing! It's a clip show...

[@JoeNayDoh]

See now I'm just sitting here wondering if that Back to the Future game is gonna be the real thing or not.

[@thomasoconnor3008]

50/50

[@chanceneck8072]

The early build looks promising............ Ok, I gotta be honest, without retaining myself, I actually think, it looks amazing! Esp the soundtrack!

[@TheRealSinjinsmyth]

Calling it now. At the last minute all licenses are pulled and it becomes the original game lol.

[@chall6761]

Yes it's real and i definitely will be licensed all title "Back to the Future," it's gonna be great like the episode of the nerdo.

[@acusterx]

Honestly, same.

[@MegaCunnie]

So it’s a clip show then ? 😂

[@johnnyisdead]

The Wall of LJN Kills has me crying.🤣🤣🤣

[@fierguy]

Congrats on 200 episodes! I still fondly remember staying up waaaay later than I should have binging AVGN on my grandparents computer, brilliantly realized on their crystal clear mega HD cathode ray tube monitor.

[@manbearpig74012]

Great, uh, clip show, man...

[@registradus]

wait. so it's a clip show?
