It was around summer 2006. I was on YouTube looking for clips from the Where's Waldo cartoon series and I came across ericmansuper's game review of Where's Waldo on the NES. I found it to be hilarious and I remembered at the beginning he said that it was a tribute to the Angry Nintendo Nerd. So I looked him up and watched McKids, Double Dragon III and Caslevania II and I've been a huge fan since.

I don't remember when, but I remember stumbling on to his Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III review and laughing so hard through the review. Then I checked out his other videos and instantly became a fan!

James Rolfe has coined new variations on curse words! He used something physiological to describe The Wizard of Oz for the Super Nintendo! He's funnyeven if his humor is foul mouthed. His movie reviews are neat, as well. He loves Godzilla and Jackie Chan movies as much as I do. Mr. Rolfe is an ambitious filmmaker and I hope he finds success.
BTW, who is the cute blonde girl in his home movies? Is she a sibling or a neighbor? -

A friend of mine sent me a link to a review parodying the AVGN, by some guy named Ebeeto ( http://www.youtube.com/user/Ebeeto ).I found that to be really funny, checked for the source, the rest is history.
It should be noted that Ebeeto is not ripping James off. He's acknowledged him, he has a distinct, psychopathic style, and he said many times that he's mocking all the AVGN wannabes. -

Back in 2007 I looked up Die Hard NES on Google and I saw the trailer for his review. I thought it was funny, but I didn't watch a full episode until December 2007 when I saw his Christmas episode. I have been a big fan since then.

I think I found him through his first AVGN video. Not at the time it was released, but yeah. I think I searched for Castlevania II and his video popped up. Might have been in 2006 or 2007. I think he only had a few videos up. I knew him as only "JamesNintendoNerd". I'm not sure whether or not he called himself the AVGN yet, if it simply wasn't in the title, or if I just don't remember it. Was before his team-up with ScrewAttack/GameTrailers. And before the intro.
Ah, I remember sitting there all night watching his videos.
Doesn't quite feel the same, now that he has millions of viewers.
He probably had at least a few thousand subscribers when I discovered him. Certainly not over 500 thousand. I wasn't among the first to discover him, but I'm certainly not a new fan.
In all my life, I will never love a woman the way this officer loved that lip ferret. -

My cousin kind of introduced me to him without even knowing it. You see, back when I lived in Washington state, my cousin came over to my house last night, and I can't remember how this came up, but he told me that his favorite movie of all time was Top Gun. A couple of months later, I moved to Virginia and found Top Gun for sale of DVD at a good price, so I decided to check it out, and I really liked it, so I ended up looking up Top Gun on Youtube, and his review of the game was one of the videos that came up, so I watched it, and I've been a fan ever since.

A few years ago an old friend just happen to show me his review for one of the Friday The Thirteen games.
Let's just say that's still one of my favorite episodes.

I can't remember exactly what brought the AVGN to my attention, but I assume I was looking up gameplay videos on YouTube and the colorful, in-your-face, punk rock, retro AVGN logo caught my eye. Long live the AVGN!
