She had been with me through thick and thin, and was there for me when nobody else was. We would sometimes watch AVGN videos together. She will be forever in my heart. RIP Kissa, and RIP Boo. I hope that they never run out of mice, birds and fish in the lands of eternal hunt where they are now. Thank you James for this episode, it brought a smile to my face. This was the wholesomeness I needed right now.

Well, like the switch and DS, the wii had no shortage of shovel ware. So there's plenty for him to do.

[@ghostifacation]

There are soooooo many bad indie games!

[@ericfelds6291]

There’s so much funny bad content on the Wii in terms of shovel ware, I’d love it too. I also have a ton of nostalgia for that console.

It's always a treat whenever there's a new AVGN episode.

[@jimmymelendez1836]

James, that ending hit me hard. And the most heartbreaking thing is that your cat Boo passed away in 2020. And I've never knew your cat's name was Boo. I've only seen your cat in some of your videos. RIP, Boo.

The Wii is now just as old as the NES was when AVGN started up

[@ReflectionOfPerfection]

NES came out in 85, Nerd in 04. That's close enough tho

[@cero2277]

You’re off by about 3 years

Lost my 20 yr old cat this year. Thanks James, loved this episode!

[@purpleYamask]

I like to imagine he actually swears at Yeti lovingly when his daughters aren't around.

[@IAmMightyMike]

I've been waiting ten years for the point where we'd get old enough to see AVGN touch on games from this generation.

[@27altoids]

Respect to Boo. Their presence was always enjoyed over the years. Also, I lost it during the “Ode to Joy” skit. Comedy gold, sir.

Loved this episode! Glad Yeti was a big part of it. RIP Boo; we'll never forget the Jaguar episode!

Great new Nerd episode. R.I.P. Boo... you'll be missed, but are immortal for your cat-meo's in earlier AVGN vids!

[@GanRPG]

Yeti shall continue to carry the torch of fighting off the Atari Jaguar cube in Boo's stead.

Wait Boo (Death Kitty) passd away?!

[@SecurityDivision]

Here's some interesting thing about wii controllers - they use gyroscope and accelerometer chips to track the motion. Such chips are also essential in drones as they make them able to fly and not tumble and crash. But before wii it was hard to get them as a part if you wanted to build a drone yourself. So when wii came out, the controllers were pretty cheap and had the motion chips available. People started disassembling the controllers, pulling out the chips and using them in home made drones. And generally this kinda started the whole drone popularity.

[@ericfelds6291]

That’s a gnarly anecdote lol thanks for sharing

[@benjaminmuratore9341]

For a 14 year old cat, Yeti looks great!

[@jacksonjacob7791]

He must take care of her well. I have a 13 year old boy cat who is still very healthy like her.

[@hiokiryuuhei4714]

Turkish Van cats can have a pretty long live, we kept ours for 18 years, and he could have lived a few more if we saw his teeth problems earlier. I still miss him sometimes, i knew him for a big part of my childhood up to my late university years, he was part of the family. 😢

[@albertwong4516]

The Rockin' Kats OST playing over the 'cat and propane' scene is a spark of genius.

[@LuftmanPlay]

There was some real creativity in the angles and editing of this episode, well done! :)

Watching AVGN review Wii Shovelware is perfection, he was born to do this
