  • 32x pile of shit

  • I got the whole Genesis System for $60 at a local game shop. Most confusing and user-hating console to hook up! But once you figure it out it's awesome. BTW you don't NEED the metal prongs for the Model 1.

  • sega power strip

  • Hey, can you review "Sega Channel" it was a cable service that allowed you to play Genesis games over a monthly cable subscription. I had it for a summer and it was the best summer of my life...

  • I am trying to go around liking all of his reviews, and I am proud to say I am 1 step closer, YES!

  • Comment removed

  • They ruined doom!!!! *sniffle

  • Do Toy Story! :)

  • wow i completely forgot how awesome dooms soundtrack is :O

  • do pac man on the atari 2600

    

  • i played virtual fighter but it was a arcade verson and i fucking loved it but i did not know what ko ment when i played then i found out it ment knock out

  • Sega souldnt release this thing and kept Sega Cd.

  • @HyperRush79 Well if it hadn't been for the 32X, we wouldn't have had Virtua Racing Deluxe, which is the best port of the game.

  • ...ulations, sound, and background layer). When the 32X renders it's portion, it goes through the cable and is combined with the genesis's portion, then sent to the TV.

    Also, if you moved those incessant bricks down one slot each, plugged the TV in the (now free) top slot, and the third brick into the open wall socket, it is doable. (though brick-style transformers are useless except for portable uses, which this clearly /isn't/)

  • "The damn thing being plugged in the top" /isn't/ enough.

    The pins on the 16-bit slot are meant for interfacing with the Genesis's processing system, and were built to allow said data to pass.

    The 32X deals with more power than can be sent through these lines alone. Rendering and subsequent video output are the last steps for game systems, and since the two components (Gen. and X) process separate parts of the game (presumably, the 32X handles the sprite layers, the genesis: processing of calc

  • The top two thumbed up comments are beyond me... Do these people not relies that this product was made 20 years ago?? Not to mention the new consoles have eliminated this problem. Vent about the USA elsewhere...this is AVGN, not some benny hill euro crap.

  • @snowboardman420 did you not see the camera which he bought in 2007?

    american localization for things still fucks up way too often.

    and you're one to talk. you are arguing nationality just as much

  • I bought my32x for 30 bucks with doom back in the day. Seriously I think the thing worked once!!

  • All that sega parts would be awesome if aleast had better graphics, sound, and controls that Nintendo and Atari

  • Anybody else turned on when James showed off his archery skills?

  • @0xLoveisWarx0 That was just EPIC, Specially with the contra music in the background

  • contra music at the end!

  • Seeing the 32X Star Wars make me want to say this: "You know what would be nice, a home port of the Star Wars Trilogy Arcade." Trust me, if you find it in the arcade, don't pass it by.

  • i want both of this pile of vomit and piece of shit

  • @slodere the pile of vomit. the piece of shit is only worth it for Knuckles Chaotix

  • The 32X Doom port has shitty music due to poor use of the Sega Genesis YM2612 FM synthesis chip.

  • @MegaEmil9 streets of rage 3 soundtrack proves that theory!

    anyway, i love the crappy soundtrack of doom, it feels me like i am in a very dirty place with dirty disgusting enemies... this is the way i like them videogames: DIRTY, RAW & THE LOOK & SOUND OF UNFINISHED!

  • Bow and arrow + fire + dead 32x....that's ingenuous.

  • nice bow

  • 32X + 32-bit processor + Slow CPU-ROM = 100% Shet

  • Ghosts n goblins is awesome

  • AVGN should do a review of the Ghost N Goblin Series.

  • Stupid Japanese can't make a proper power supply. Even Atari got it right.

  • @clanna2004 "stupid japanese"? so are Nintendo. So are Sega, so are Sony....(debatably the three most popular and well known game companies EVER)

    so basically you just insulted every gaming company besides Microsoft (a shit company turned decent) and Atari (a great company turned shit)

    it's the US's fault for using such retarded adaptors....

    nearly EVERY other developed country used Plugs which slotted in perpendicularly,,,,

  • @Lostprophetzzz Sega and Nintendo CHOSE to use those fat power plugs, NOT the American people. It wasn't on the ballot during our last elections.

  • @clanna2004 ignorance at its finest. Just know it's the U.S.'s fault that we still have these power adapters today. They use those fat ass adapters because its cheaper. Regardless, those adapters are obsolete.

  • @qtippz You're the epitome of stupidity. Last time I checked American people didn't go to the polls and voted on what style power adapters to use. We have electrical standards that must be met before a product is allowed in our market. The fact that there are other types of power adapters in our market signifies that the choice is up to the MANUFACTURER, NOT the buyers. We also don't have a choice on what type to buy. We were at the mercy of SEGA. Think before you shoot your mouth off.

  • @clanna2004 Seems like someone caught feelings.

  • @qtippz Seems like you got owned.

  • @clanna2004 lol! @ this man not knowing they use the fat ass plugs because it's cheaper.

  • @qtippz Who decides what kind of plug to use? The manufacturer DOES. Sega decided to use the fat plugs to save on manufacturing costs. The european version of the console also came with the fat plugs. To sell as many of your products as possible, you want to keep production cost down. Sega did exactly just that. The United States had NOTHING to do with it. You're just a bitter idiot that's looking for any reason to bash that country. You're a fool.

  • @clanna2004 "You're just a bitter idiot that's looking for any reason to bash that country." Aren't you the same one who started out bashing Japan/Japanese people? lol! @ this sentence. lol! @ the feelings caught in your comment.

  • @qtippz Since the Japanese are the ones who PRODUCED those power plugs, the criticism falls on them. The United States does NOT have a choice of the power plugs, so you can NOT put this on them.

    You're shooting blanks bud.

  • @clanna2004 Stop it. Bottom line is the U.S. still goes for those obese power adapters today because they're cheaper and you know it. Regardless if they're on consoles or not. Your bashing of Japan/Japanese was ignorant & unnecessary.

  • @qtippz Do you understand basic English or are you too stupid to make anything of what I'm saying. Again, Atari made a smarter plug while Sega and Nintendo made stupid ones. Those plugs were the choice of the MANUFACTURERS, not Americans.

    You're just an attention whore and I'm not going to waste my time with you. Go stick a fork in a socket shit for brain moron.

  • @clanna2004 Hilarious. I guess you still don't get it. Fine. You win. I clearly can't tell you nothing.

  • @clanna2004 dude, get a life

  • @torganya I need to get a life for standing up from bigots who label an entire group of people for the actions and decisions of others. Uh-huh. Drink Drano bud.

  • I love the way James Rolfe shakes his hand in anger when he holds the big box plug lol.

  • hard to believe how far behind the USA is with such a simple thing as power adapters

  • @Lostprophetzzz I know right? The sad thing is that not all power adapters are at the end of a plug. It's bullshit.

  • @stlouisrocker100 neither are ours. and even when they are you can still fit four on a four slot multi-adaptor......

    because they slot in sideways....

  • @Lostprophetzzz most of those power adapters weren't made in the usa

  • @Lostprophetzzz But its a Japanese console ._.

  • @JhonnyWisdomRock but when they sell them in america an american company is in charge of localizing them.

    there are loads of different types of adaptors.

    american ones are just poorly though out.

  • Well we got youtube

  • @snowboardman420 what do you mean by that?

    everyone has youtube....

    it was created by an american, a thailander and a german.....

  • @Lostprophetzzz lets not beat around the bush it is an american website. Is that clear enough for you?

  • @snowboardman420 what you mean the american website made by a thailander and a german which is found on the world-wide-web created by a british man?

    god i hate you pricks...

    the internet and ALL it's sites are independent of nation...

    NONE of them BELONG to ANYONE.

  • @Lostprophetzzz So your telling me that youtube is ran and owned by nobody and all these ads they run before videos is just for shit and giggles? dude u need to really go read a book! Like Google, MSN, and youtube (for fuck sake) this is an american owned web site. Just cause you can access it anywhere in the world doesnt mean its owned by that country. Cmon man your smarter than that!

  • @snowboardman420 and again i state that they were opened by a multinational team.

    with servers across europe, and asia.

    relying on an international infrastructure.

    that's like saying that because the EU is based in belgium that Belgium OWNS the EU.

    or that because the World wide web was created by a british man it belongs to britain.

    these are SHARED by the world.

    NOBODY OWNS THEM!.

  • @Lostprophetzzz If nobody owns youtube then how did google (American company) buy it?

  • @snowboardman420 let me rephrase that.

    what i meant to say is that no nation owns youtube.

    it was owned by it's three creators....

    but now google has the rights to it.

  • @Lostprophetzzz i know right, they claim to have better technology than britain yet they cant make smaller power adapters, or at least make the big ones go sideways

  • @Lostprophetzzz the atari 8bit computer had a better power supply and it was released in the 1980's.

  • @Lostprophetzzz

    lol we r retarded hre in ussa +D

  • This is when AVGN was still good.

  • @hellblazer116 his videos haven't gotten any worse or any better so stop complaining just enjoy the fact he still likes making nerd reviews

  • @Anosplicer They have gotten worse. I would enjoy if he stopped making AVGN all together or atleast take a break for a year and get back to the basics of what made AVGN good to begin with.

  • @hellblazer116 really. and what do you possibly think is "missing" from his newer videos.

  • @hellblazer116 I'd prefer it if he just did stuff as James Rolfe. As much as I love AVGN, his out-of-character videos are great

  • 2:24 - Honestly, the manufacturers probably didn't expect folks to store their cartridges out of cases (because they didn't seem to understand about cases taking up too much room, much like the add-ons themselves). For my part, when I was a kid, if my dad found any of his Genesis carts lying around out of their cases, I was grounded from playing with it.

  • How is it he can prattle off blasphemous bullshit about Primal Rage like that... but he never stops to mention how Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat were hundreds of times WORSE in every aspect he mentioned.

    More importantly, the thing about looking up moves is only half true. There's only so many button combinations, and you can learn all Vertigo's moves in about 10 minutes just by dicking around. No other fighting game from the time can say that.

  • Even the cartridge from famicom & super famicom are unlable, matter thats?

  • I had a 32x when it came out and the only good game I ever played on it was Doom.

  • i think the reason why they didnt have end labels is because they wanted to keep down the cost

  • AVGN For Hawkeye!!! I know it's Jeremy Renner already, don't bother pointing it out.

  • Nice bow. What's the model?

  • f!!k

  • Yeah, those power adapter boxes piss me the fuck off >_> I had to buy a bunch of extension cords, and plug them into my power strip -_-

  • He has 2 copies of Sonic 2 :)

  • i actually loved playing primal rage on the SNES it was my favorite game i cant play it any more because i lost some cords

  • nasty video

  • I paid a total of 25 cents at a yardsale for mine...which I gave away since I only wanted the Genesis in the bundle. And no, I'm not lying.

  • 8:14 For a second I thought the Nerd made a mistake but then I took a closer look and realized it was a PS single. It's a pretty weird looking one. It looks like a PC engine.

  • @theknightswhosayfrak That's the "slim" model. Used to be the one most sold in my town. Nobody wanted the larger one.

  • You know, everybody pictures The Nerd going into battle with all the NES accessories strapped to his ass, firing lazers and shit,

    But nothing is more badass than that fuckin' hunting bow.

  • I have to say I've outgrown the Nerd and his potty humor, but I still watch his videos because I'm a huge fan of James.

  • the sega,32x,cd looks like a mess

  • We live in the year 2012 and they still can't figure out that shit like that takes up too much room

  • @WeirdGuy207

    Yeah, what's up with large and oddly shaped consoles? Everything should be like Gamecube, it was just a little box with a handle on it.

  • @Draginvry2 the xbox and the PS1 were bulky, but i thought they had better games.

  • @Chukwillard

    I always thought that the PS1 and the SNES had the best game libraries. Both of those systems had a wide variety of games, and a lot of good ones too.

  • @Chukwillard The ps1 is less bulky that the (old) ps2 console, and both ps3 models, it's actually quite small imo.

    I completely agree with the consoles having amazing games

  • @shirosaki97 ya thats what i meant to say. its been awhile.

  • I got my 32X at toys are us for 20 bucks with my choice of a 32-X game got kuckles now wish I got spiderman web of fire. Who knew?

  • That was like the DLC of consoles.

  • it's funny I don't want to sound like an asshole but you only need to pop two of them in if your only going to play the CD put in the Genesis and the CD same with the 32x, 32x and Genesis only

  • the end was the best part of this video

  • Sega actually made a "Sega Power Strip", which was made to have several of those "box"-type plugs at the same time (clearly meant for the Sega CD and 32X).

  • i own the pile of vomit

  • "I'm playing Invisible Primal Rage!"

    I'm probably sure a better joke would've been "I'm playing Extinct Primal Rage!" Get it? Well, I'm just saying James. oh well.

  • seriously if there was a video game history class, This guy would be a great teacher lololol

  • hey james i've got a zapper that works perfect if ya want it sincerely Mr.caleber96

  • Yeeeeahh!!!! Ooooo! Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeeeaah!! Oooo-oooo-ooo-oooooooo!

  • AVGN, could please review Sonic the hedgehog(GBA)?

  • press 7

  • you spent that much money on that piece of shit?????

  • 7:56

  • i landed the plane on top gun today!!!!!!

  • 3DO beats that

  • so if SOPA passes, what sites are we all going to go to next?

  • @wildboyintraining we're going to be reading the AVGN book, or watching the AVGN theatre musical instead of the internet.

  • Labels aren't even that important.. just organize your game library in alphebatical order. Thats all you have to do. But everything else i agree with.

  • SEGA CD = Segas Virtual Boy

  • AVGN please review earth worn jim

  • @cfhcowboy Earthworm Jim wasn't a shitty game.

  • @TheGallantGentry i know lol 

  • Can I get over 100 likes if i say Fuck Justin Bieber and I like AVGN?!

  • any ways lets forget about SOPA and focus on avgn sorry about pissing everybody off i know im a douche sorry guys : )

  • @julexguiltyspark SOPA got cancelled because too many sites were protesting.

  • @robloxfan333 SOPA was put on hiatus.

  • @robloxfan333 it didnt get canceled it got postponed

  • @robloxfan333 jackass don't mislead people it's alive and never going to die with people like you telling people to not worry about it.

  • @agentfire102 I can't argue with that.

  • I can't breathe! XD

  • AVGN, please review Bubsy 3D!

  • @1CoolDudeMe Oh i remember that game so confusing!!!

  • Ur powerplugs in germany are great xD we can plug them how we want

  • I'm gonna be completely honest, AVGN is the only reason I'm afraid of this whole SOPA bullshit. I don't care about facebook, or wikipedia, or all that other shit. But if I can't come home from work to enjoy some AVGN, that's when I'm gonna be pissed..

  • The Angry Video Game Nerd really lives up to his name in this episode!

  • SOPA IS DEAD IM JUST ANNOUNCING THEY SHELVED IT AT 3:52 PM TODAY JUST TO SPREAD THE WORD SORY IF THIS PISSES YOU OFF GUYS IK THAT SOPA SHOULDNT EVEN BE MENTIONED ON JAMES'S VIDEOS

  • @julexguiltyspark The stop fucking mentioning it. Also, shelved is not dead.

  • @julexguiltyspark

    Shelved = delayed or postponed.

  • @julexguiltyspark Shelved doesn't mean dead. In face its still here, in fact SOPA is now suing people who use MegaUploads(dot)com

  • @GamingsCupofJoe well actually it kinda does and yeah ik about megaupload and thats not sopa its just the government

  • is it just me or does he destroy something almost every episode? shouldn't you keep those fossilized pieces of crap? lol

  • 150$ for a add on?

  • @LadyCorsaires Isn't the whole purpose of an add on to lessen the burden of having to spend that kind of money of an all new game system but to simply be an upgrade fot the one you already own? Most illogical.

  • @theknightswhosayfrak yeah.. but the problem is that those upgrades dont help too much...you still will have to buy new shitty console in order to play new games... thats how they make money

  • @theknightswhosayfrak To add insult to injury the damn thing kept going down in price making any one who bought it went it first came out fucked. On top of the new Saturn that came out not to long after. You may as well flushed that money down the toilet.

  • We live in the year 2007? :O I've gone back in time!

  • I actually used to own a saturn...then I got the PS2...then wii, then Xbox... Igave the saturn & the PS2.

  • 5:50

    What the name of that Doom song?

  • archery is way more nerdy than video games. kudos u are my hero

  • SOPA is like a cop chasing one petty theif through a crowd of people and the cop decides to nuke the crowd to get the one petty theif

  • @boomhammer07 ...Actually that IS pretty good analogy of the situation.

  • @boomhammer07 Thats a pretty spot on analogy for it

  • @boomhammer07 cool story bro

  • @boomhammer07 this is so relevant

    wait

  • @boomhammer07 Now we have a new fucking bill called "ACTA" 3 times worse than SOPA & PIPA ALTOGETHER!!!

  • ive just finished downloading the newest wikipedia torrent. i guess ill need couple of hard drives to fill them up with old games and shows... future suckss...

  • @boomhammer07 What does that have to do with this video?

  • 2007? It's 2012 buddy.

  • @nigeleckzdee

    >This video was recorded during 2007.

    I know, it is a complicated thought, but try to get that thorough your mind. 

  • @nigeleckzdee Yes it is 2012. You are very astute but you fail to realize that videos have been produced and posted prior to the year 2012. This video was created in 2007 and posted on Youtube in 2008. Now do us all a favour and stop being an idiot.

  • @nigeleckzdee You're retarded. Even if you're trying to make a joke.

  • @nigeleckzdee Not. Smart.

  • @Niemtol2 You might want to fix your grammar before you start insulting me.

    I believe you meant to say "Not smart."

  • @nigeleckzdee No, I didn't, actually.

  • You know...he never does mention the Dreamcast

  • @RKO1492 That is true. He does not talk much about Playstation either.

  • Comment removed

  • SOPA is stupid!

  • who is sopa anyway or what

  • @blueplue3600 it's a U.S bill that can remove websites like youtube, twitter, facebook, etc, like it never existed.

    But it's only if they pass the bill and if they do, it's going to take effect on jan 24 2012.

  • not exatly remove but force you to pay if you whant to enter on it, like in xbox life you need to buy a membership so you can play online, the reason y they do all this its cus the companys (20th sentury fox and any film coorporation, microsoft, and eaven the goverment etc),whant to earm money by owning you tube or facebook or world press, in other words SOPA its just a whay for the goverment and coorporations to get easy billions to their pockets

  • @blueplue3600

    Stop

    Online

    Piracy

    Act.

    Basically, it's a way to discreetly start world war 3.

  • the 32x killed my genisis

  • This video is a reminder why Sega was not a huge threat to Nintendo

  • Don't know why the Angry Video Game Nerd is complaining? Compared to modern monster graphic cards for gaming pc's consoles like 32X and Sega CD are just the lesser evil.^^

  • LOL: "It's like getting gang raped ..." "Both of it's slots getting fucked at the same time ..." ^^

  • I think the 32x is cool. Virtua Fighter for it wasn't bad, it was WAY better than the Sega Saturn one, not to mention Virtua Racing Deluxe, which is fun as hell.

  • ye-ye-ye-yeah!!!!

  • Is Pitfall the Mayan adventure good?

  • ....all the nerd had to do was switch the tv plug with one of the the sega plugs...

  • From the guys who made Sonic Unleashed.
