Scott The Woz (real name: Scott Daniel Wozniak) is a YouTube personality who primarily makes content focused on, in his own words, "stupid Nintendo games".Scott's videos vary between comedy skits, straight game reviews, and retrospectives on video game-related topics that are usually under-discussed in the industry. No matter what, this is all coated with a very off-beat sense of humor, which gets even wackier in his later videos. Individually, Scott is mostly known for his fast-paced narration and the overall humorous tone of his videos.While Scott started out his video making in 2009 for school projects, he started making YouTube content around the same time under the name "Wozniak News TV", consisting of top 10 lists and comedy skits. Most of these videos have been reuploaded to a secondary channel called Scott's Stash, which also features videos such as behind-the-scenes footage and bloopers from the main series, in-depth retrospectives on various Nintendo junk, and even occasional gameplay with his co-stars. He adopted the "Scott The Woz" moniker on November 7th, 2012, with the "Scott The Woz" series starting on January 7th, 2017.In the early days of the channel, Scott made a variety of videos, though not much of the channel's content before 2016 is known. Prior to the main series, Scott made a few non-gaming skits and short films under the name of "Originals", one of which is The Internet and You. Nowadays, non-gaming skits have been released as "Scott The Woz" videos alongside the gaming videos.In 2021, it was announced that Scott The Woz episodes would begin to be broadcast on a television network. They began airing on G4 on December 7th of that year. As the rights to the online show's theme song, "Breakout" from 3D Dot Game Heroes, could not be secured from the copyright holders, a new original theme was composed for the G4 series by Garrett Williamson. This would be adopted for the online show in due time as well, and continued even after the G4 series ended (along with G4 itself) in 2022. | |

Sure, Let's Go with That | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_1086f287 | comment |
Sure, Let's Go with That: Done twice in the Dark Age of Nintendo arc: The first time, in the Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash part of the trilogy, Scott calls Rex and Jeb to inform them that their uncles died. When Jeb asks if it's Gex night again, Scott decides that that's easier than trying to explain how Jeb's uncle died for the third time. The second time, in the Chibi-Robo: Zip Lash part, Dr. Jerry Attricks's diagnosis of Scott's problem with the game, that it's so good that Scott feels inadequate in its presence, leads Scott to respond with a simple, "...Sure." | |

Look Behind You: During It's Awesome Baby!, Jeb pulls one on the Supreme Leader after the latter attempts to execute the guys for knowing too much about the Leader's backstory, plans, and Madden NFL, by saying that Dick Vitale is right behind him. The Supreme Leader knows Jeb is lying, but falls for it anyway because he doesn't want to take any chances. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_13646b1b | comment |
My Friends... and Zoidberg: In E3 1997, Scott states that 1997 "was a year featuring some of the most iconic and greatest games of all time...and Sega was there, too!" The description for Cancelled Games is "Scott takes a look at games that sadly will never come out and Project Giant Robot for Wii U." In Games Compilation Compilation Vol. 2, Scott refers to The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition as "three of the most beloved games of all time and Zelda 2". In Game Packaging, he compares the arrival of a new console to having a new child, "picturing what it'll look on the shelf next to the rest of your children and Sega Saturn." In Virtual Boy: I've Seen Better, before properly talking about the aforementioned Virtual Boy: | |

Fake Longevity | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_14184bc7 | comment |
Fake Longevity: Discussed in Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash, on two points: The Destination Wheel, which determines what the next level you will be playing in the world is, even though the levels were clearly designed with a logical order in mind with increasing difficulty and you still have to beat them all anyway. He also points out that you're forced to play a level all over again if you land on one you've already played. The fact that the final boss is locked behind a certain amount of cash. He laments that this was never done anywhere else in the game and since he didn't know he was supposed to be saving coins, he is now forced to backtrack through the rest of the game (and ultimately decides that this is the final straw). | |

Madness Mantra: In The Fall and Rise of 2D Gaming, Scott mentions how the success of New Super Mario Bros. Wii caused Nintendo to make another 2D game. And another 2D game. "And another! And another! And another! And another! And another! And another! And another!" | |

Non Sequitur | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_1495d0e6 | comment |
Zig-zagged: The main takeaways Scott gets from the events of "You're Not an RPG Guy" are that it's perfectly okay that he's not an RPG guy, as that's just his own opinion (and that he at least likes some RPGs) and he shouldn't have to force himself to be something he isn't... and that sharks are just sexy fish at the end of the day. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: In Wii Accessories, Scott comments on the many Wii Remote accessories that connect to the remote's port, saying, "There's never been this many possibilities with just one hole!" After Scott has an emotional breakdown during his RPG intervention and leaves the room, Terry decides to order food from Stale Pretzels, only for Target Employee to keep hounding him to order ribs from there (when he's the only one in the room who wants ribs). This causes Terry to ask if this is how the others sounded when fighting with Scott over his reluctance to play RPGs. | |

Tempting Fate: In discussing which version of Resident Evil 4 to use for his Tales from the Backlog video about it, Scott decides to not use a Nintendo version, as he wants to spice things up and talk more about games outside of Nintendo. And no sooner does he decide to do this: The last thing Scott wears before he got into a train crash in Desert Island Gaming is a shirt with "# of Train Crashes Today: 0" written on it. Scott opens Old Series, New Developer with "I like candles, sue me!" — cut to Scott receiving an actual lawsuit for "candle enthusiasm". | |

Continuity Porn: "Borderline Forever" sneaks in tons of references to past sketches, way too many to individually list here. One of the opening shots alone is a Continuity Cavalcade in and of itself, including the Dark Age of Nintendo trilogy, the hair dryer from Game Collecting, Sonic Jam from The Rarest of Games, the broken Wii Remote from The Wii: Underpowered Yet Underrated, the Captain Marvel shirt from Loot Boxes, the Call of Duty canteen from Collectors' Editions, and Dick Vitale's "Awesome Baby!" College Hoops. And it just keeps going from there. A supercut of every Continuity Nod being explained that a fan put together runs for seven and a half minutes. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_1b65dfad | comment |
Borderline Forever has a lot of fun with this. The video opens with "How To Talk About Video Games", a tutorial VHS lampooning every standard trope of the genre. Not only Scott uses quite a few of them himself, a good half of the reviewer sphere are seen actively taking notes (including James Rolfe, who is the Trope Maker for the vast majority of them). A later plot point of the video is that Scott's blue border starts acting up whenever he or his friends push their respective one-note running gags too hard. | |

Alternative Calendar: Parodied. Scott hates the fact that first 23 days of December feel like filler, so he moved them back to a new month he dubbed "Bluth", with each day being its own "holiday" (such as "Why Is Scott Wearing That Hat?" Day and National "Shoot, Delaware's a State!" Day). The last six days of Bluth are simply labeled "Empathy." | |

Overly Narrow Superlative: A sizable staple of his humor. Such gems include: In The Worst Games of All Time, when talking about Unearthed: Trail of Ibn Battuta Episode 1, Scott points out, "At least they saw the growing market for cinematic action-adventure games that begin with 'Un'." In The Wii: Underpowered Yet Underrated, Scott refers to the Wii as "everybody's least favorite favorite console". In E3 1997, Scott points out that "great stories generally don't start with, 'The year was 1997 in Atlanta, Georgia.'" Later on in the same episode, he calls the Sega E3 1997 brochure "everybody's favorite brochure from E3 1997". In Super Smash Bros. (N64) | Smash Hit, the Kirby series is referred to as "everybody's favorite pink-tumor-based platformer". The description for Super Mario Galaxy 2 | Derivative Bliss is "Scott takes a look at his least favorite Super Mario Galaxy game!" In Tech Demos, Scott points out that Conker the Squirrel is "definitely at the top of everyone's Top 10 Alcoholic Video Game Squirrels list". In Sonic the Hedgehog 2 | Return of a Laughing Stock, Scott considers the first Sonic the Hedgehog game to be "the worst first entry in the Sonic the Hedgehog series out there". In Collectors Editions, as Scott covers the collector's edition of Saint's Row 2, he calls it "everybody's favorite Grand Theft Auto game until a real Grand Theft Auto game comes out". In Game of the Year Throughout the Years, Scott calls 2016 "[his] favorite garbage year in gaming" and later on calls the Wii U "[his] favorite worst Nintendo console". In Mario Kart 64 | The Original King of Kart, Scott compares the back of Yoshi's head to Warren Harding, "[Scott's] favorite 29th President of the United States". Later on in the same video, he sarcastically expresses anger over Mario Kart 64 excluding "[his] favorite thing to waste so [he] can get a shell or something". In Mario Kart: Super Circuit | Oh Yeah, That One, Scott points out that "unlocking tracks is what some Scotts playing Super Circuit right now would consider a pain." In E3 2019, Scott calls the titular event "[his] favorite E3 of 2019!" In Reboots, Scott says that the price of Super Bomberman R is "something us people who are talking about reboots right now call bullsh*t." In Mario Kart: Double Dash!! | Double Trouble, as Scott goes over the prerelease period of the game, he says that it was "looking to be the greatest Mario Kart: Double Dash!! of all time". In Mario Kart Wii | Motion Sickness, Scott calls Mario Kart Wii "the best Mario Kart for the Wii" and proceeds to lampshade the narrowness of the superlative by adding, "But at that point, it's also the worst." In Wii Play Motion | Eh, Why?, Scott calls the Flutter Fly minigame lame, and then follows it up with, "'But Scott,' you say, 'There's no way a game where you flap a balloon with a leaf named Flutter Fly in a game called Wii Play Motion can be lame!'" The description for the same video reads, "Scott plays the most obscure/most well known sequel to Wii Play." In Call of Duty on Nintendo DS, Call of Duty is referred to as "everybody's favorite best-selling first-person war shooter franchise". Scott calls E3 2000 "one of the worst E3s that could've possibly happened in the year 2000". Scott puts the first Mario Party game at the #1 rank... on the list of Mario Party games he has reviewed, of which there's only the first two games, by the time the episode takes place (he starts playing it in the year 2024). Toward the end of Wii Chess | It Exists!, Scott says, "Introducing Wii Chess, the only chess game on Wii called Wii Chess!" When talking about Pirates vs. Ninjas Dodgeball in Shovelware Variety Hour: Round Three, Scott calls it "the best pirate game on our list today." It's one of the two pirate games he reviews in the episode. During the denouement of Gaming Revivals, Kay Swiss informs Scott, "It's pretty stunning! I've only worked with someone who paid off their debts and bought a house unconsciously twice before." In DSiWare, Scott calls Photo Dojo "the most amazing thing [he's] seen all sentence!" Scott considers Donkey Kong Barrel Blast to be "one of the slowest damn ape racing games [he's] ever played." | |

Chekhov's Gag | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_22cf50f9 | comment |
Chekhov's Gag: The Polybius episode begins with Scott carving a watermelon into a jack-o-lantern. At the end of the episode, he uses the jack-o-lantern to trap the spirit of Polybius. Early on in Super Mario Kart | Baby on Board, Scott receives a video message from his future self with an eye patch warning present Scott that he thinks Super Mario Kart is just okay. Later on in the video, we learn that what led to Scott wearing an eye patch was a paddle ball to the eye. Midway through Game Packaging, Scott makes fun of the boxes for DSi games, and claims that he's free to do so because karma doesn't exist. At the end of the episode, he finds out karma *does* in fact exist, and that it has made him sick again because he made fun of the boxes for DSi games. At the beginning of Memory Cards, one of the Halloween costumes Scott considers going as is "somebody who ate a f*cking Wii", but he decides that maybe such a costume would be better for the following year's Halloween. Toward the end, Scott actually eats a Wii to stop a haunting. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The Sega Genesis with Dick Vitale's "Awesome, Baby!" College Hoops sat on Scott's desk from the start, and became the focus of Episode 100. invoked Scott's "Madden" sign in The Great Mysteries of Gaming is what saves his life during the climax via the Madden Curse Pop Culture Urban Legend. Scott frequently throws copies of Chibi Robo: Zip Lash in the toilet as a Running Gag. In the episode dedicated to the game, all the copies he's flushed coalesce into a giant monster that threatens to consume him and his friends. In the same episode, the copy of Gex: Enter the Gecko that Rex gives Scott turns out to be the key to defeating the monster at the end. Scott's explanation of the definition of a Role-Playing Game, moreso the fact that the broad definitionnote a player controlling a character/group of characters in a well-defined world means that technically any video game could be considered an RPG, winds up biting him in the ass later on when Jeb shows up while working as an RPG delivery man to give Scott an RPG... and hands over a copy of Madden 08. The first half of Borderline Forever has Scott admit he actually kind of likes the sheer amount of Shovelware on Wii, and says that he's sure he'll find a use for all of them someday. By the third act of the episode, he's built an entire rocket ship out of Wii games. | |

Accidental Aiming Skills: Parodied. Scott throws his Sega Classic box of Sonic the Hedgehog and it "accidentally" (as in, through a series of Jump Cuts) plunges into his toilet, which Scott chalks up to luck. He later throws the game cartridge, which ends up landing right on the cartridge slot of his Sega Genesis that he inexplicably had set up inside his bathroom. | |

Tampering with Food and Drink: Parodied. In Homecoming, after Scott decided he wants his homecoming party to allow alcohol and drugs, he starts to deliberately spike all the food and drinks. Cue Scott filling the punch bowl with cigarettes, putting a beer can between two halves of a slider sandwich, and pouring beer into the homecoming ballot box. Also parodied in It's A Bargain Bin Christmas; some of Scott's guests for the gala are vegan, so Scott laced all the meat dishes with tofu. | |

Broke the Rating Scale | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_24fbee90 | comment |
Broke the Rating Scale: Of the Out Of Bounds variety in his video about the first E3 conference in 1995, the same video that introduced his knee slap rating scale. Sony's "$299" moment led to Scott slapping his knee at such a rapid, continuous pace that he was noticeably scarred and his knee was bloody. He was up to 14 slaps before the video cut away. The Meaningless Value type shows up in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS / Wii U | For Here or To Go?, he considers the ability to use the 3DS as a controller in the Wii U version a feature worth a (cough cough) out of 10. Development Hell brings up another Meaningless Value when Scott claims that the general consensus regarding The Last Guardian when it finally released was "eh/10". He brings up how Chibi-Robo! Zip-Lash didn't do well critically with a 59 on Metacritic, and raises the question if it was deserved. He then proceeds to say "no, even zero's too high." Unique to Classic NES Series for Game Boy Advance is the Worth $20 Scale, Scott's means of identifying whether each individual game in the series is worth the $20 you would've paid for them at the time, with the three ratings on the scale being Sure, Eh, and Anti-Sure. His verdict on the worth of Classic NES Series: Pac-Man is so far below Anti-Sure that it reaches off-screen. | |

Sick Episode: Limited Edition Consoles saw Scott trying to recuperate from having come down with mild congestion throughout the video, and at the end he got a note from his doctor saying that without treatment, Scott's going to die in 60 to 70 years. The setup for "Game Packaging" is that Scott leaves his door open for a week and comes down with various diseases, allowing him to analyze game packaging as he heals. The end of the episode reveals that talking about game packaging cured him through the power of karma... but he gets sick again because karma hates that he talked shit on the DSi boxes. | |

Mythology Gag: The end of "Instruction Manuals" has Scott attempting to follow a manual for a game titled "You Should Put Your Fork in the Microwave: The Video Game". A good joke on its own, but it's also a reference to a non-Scott The Woz sketch released a year prior to this episode, "Cookin' Hard".

Master of None | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_2804d516 | comment |
Master of None: Microconsoles makes this conclusion: Microconsoles are supposed to marry mobile and console gaming, but they fail to appeal to mobile gamers because they're less convenient and require a separate device, and they fail to appeal to console gamers because they're too underpowered and most of their titles can be played on something you already own. In The Best Selling Consoles of All Time, he comes to this conclusion regarding why the PlayStation Portable didn't do better commercially: It's supposed to offer home console games on the go, but some of these games were consequently not designed to be played in short bursts like a handheld game. The games that were designed as handheld games felt watered-down compared to the home console entries, not helped by them having been made by B-grade developers instead of the same studios as the home console games. The PSP itself was still underpowered compared to its home counterpart, the PlayStation 2, making it suboptimal for play at home, and it used a disc drive, making it not as easy to play on the go as its competitor, the Nintendo DS. Toys to Life brings this up as to what made the Disney Infinity series, LEGO Dimensions, and even Skylanders: SuperChargers not feel as magical as Spyro's Adventure, SWAP Force, or Trap Team: Disney Infinity advertised a massive crossover between various Disney IPs with playsets and everything, but between most of the initial figures mostly just being from the latest ones and the games' insistence on keeping the playsets "pure", it came across as more of a platform for Disney tie-in games, and by the time they started to make it feel substantial with the third game the toys to life market was already declining. LEGO Dimensions was a traditional LEGO game whose toys to life mechanic utilized LEGO minifigures that you could build which could appeal to people who only cared to collect LEGO sets and didn't want to play the game itself, but the portal gimmick felt clunky to use and the only LEGO Dimensions related thing to come with paper instructions came with the game, meaning you had to open the game up every time you wanted to build any of the other figures, and downloading the data for the post-release figures broke through the illusion fairly quickly. Skylanders: SuperChargers had a gimmick that focused on racing, but at that point it was more cost-effective to simply buy a standalone racing game and a platformer separately, and while it was neat to be able to play with the vehicle toys, it was harder to ignore that it was simply because of using the same technology as the character figures that it worked with the game. | |

Halloween Episode: Happens every year. 2017's episode covers the rumors surrounding the fabled Polybius arcade machine. 2018's episode has Scott play Night Trap in a haunted house in an attempt to scare the piss out of himself. 2019's The Great Mysteries of Gaming shows a murder mystery happening in real time while an audio recording of Scott's voice talks about video game rumors and mysteries. In 2020's Memory Cards, Scott invites some of his friends over for a half-pumpkin party, half-Halloween party only for the five of them to have to deal with a haunting. 2021's Gaming Revivals involves Scott making a last ditch effort to pay off his debt to the bank by opening a ghost selling business in a cemetery, eventually resulting in Steel Wool coming back to life and attempting to kill Scott and his friends again. 2022’s It Came from the Nintendo eShop involves Scott being arrested over Rex eating a 3DS he gave him during trick or treating, while looking for the cause of the death of the 3DS and Wii U eShops. He concludes that they died due to people’s ignorance of them, and the revelation unleashes a horde of angry ghosts of doomed eShop games that carry Steel Wool away to Uncertain Doom. 2023's "Candy Games" has Scott talk about, well, video games based on candy whilst he and his friends try to have an adult Halloween. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: A frequently brought up point when discussing attempts at replacing home consoles. In his video on mobile ports of console games, he points out that, while a nice idea, mobile ports of console games are often too compromised (whether in terms of graphical downgrades or in terms of controls) to be a good substitute for the console versions. Similarly, portable versions of home consoles are held back due to factors such as being too big and bulky (defeating the portability), cost or technical knowledge needed to build them for newer consoles such as the GameCube, or due to how large the cartridges for the NES, SNES, and Genesis are (once again defeating the portability). They’re made increasingly redundant as time moves on given how the 3DS Virtual Console allows you to download NES and SNES games and the Nintendo Switch flat out allows for home console games on the go. Once again his main criticism against Cloud Gaming. While playing full quality games on any device with no download required sounds cool, Cloud Gaming services generally have crippling issues such as limited libraries, not owning what you buy (meaning if you get banned or the service shuts down you essentially lit the money you paid for any games you bought on fire), needing a fast internet connection constantly (and even then they still play worse than running them on the system), and, in certain cases, redundancy as anyone who has the money to buy a cloud gaming console (such as an NVidea Shield) could easily buy a normal console for a similar price. Not to mention the lack of a necessary download only helps when you have a poor internet connection… in which cases you won’t be able to play cloud games either. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_3358987f | comment |
Dancing Bear: invokedOne of his main criticisms of Donkey Kong Barrel Blast is, oddly, the fact that it lacks this. The game was clearly intended to make use of the DK Bongos as a control method, similar to the prior Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, but at some point was shifted to use Waggle-based controls instead—the Bongos don't even work as an alternate method. While he feels the game would likely have been mediocre no matter what, if it had used the Bongos, then that would at least have made it unique and interesting to check out, something that definitely isn't the case in the final product. | |

Scott pretending they're playing Gex, and the TV (or 3DS in the final episode) having a piece of paper with "GEX" written on it taped to it. The line "So...tell me where it all began" being used, mostly by the therapist but it gets subverted several times throughout the series. | |

Death Is Cheap | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_37fcf16 | comment |
Death Is Cheap: In the Scott the Woz world, Death (especially in the form of murder) is basically just an ailment you come down with, like the flu. Over the course of The Great Mysteries of Gaming, six people die. Scott tells the audience that they are getting treated for it at the hospital, and will be fine. He's actually right—they're all just fine come It's A Bargain Bin Christmas, with the exception of Chet Shaft, and Officer Steel Wool... The former of which is only a ghost on weekends as a hobby, and both of them come back to life on their own without much fanfare as of Memory Cards. When Wendy's Employee dies in Memory Cards, everyone hardly remarks on it outside of lamenting that they wanted to be the first to die, and the only real protocol being that his brother Target Employee shows up in his stead for the following videos... and his brother discusses Wendy's Employee's status like he's on vacation, rather than anything resembling dead. | |

As he does this, his thumb covers up part of a blurb concerning the collectible canteen. As we soon learn, the blurb was a warning that the canteen can't actually be used for consumption. | |

Character Development: A Very Madden 08 Christmas revolves around Scott learning to not force Madden 08 on everyone and that different people have different preferences. It's Awesome Baby! starts with Scott singing a musical number about how all Madden games have value (except Madden 09). Lampshaded and then defied at the end of Value Pack Games; Scott realizes that value pack games aren't as bad or worthless as he thought, and then he realizes what he just said, looks up the dictionary definition of "character development", then exclaims, "I mean, hahahahaha, f*ck these things." | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In Gaming on a Budget, Scott quickly realizes that homelessness isn't as nice as he thinks it is.

In the Dark Age of Nitnendo miniseries finale, Chibi-Robo Ziplash, Rex attempts to pull a Big Damn Heroes moment by throwing a corn dog at the Anti-Gex. The dramatic moment falls flat when it just bounces off harmlessly. | |

Rex Mohs isn't fooled, but knows Scott just wants him to come over and play games, and the other, Jeb, is still convinced that they're playing Gex even while the game is right in front of him (and also that his uncle has somehow died more than once). When saying that he was a big fan of Wii Chess, he lampshades this by saying that he was also a big fan of lying. | |

Subverted when Scott wins a sweepstakes to create any game he wants. He chooses to recreate Madden 08, obviously. In Borderline Forever, Scott fails to rid himself of the Blue Border, but by reassimilating it into himself nobody else has to deal with it, and he now knows how to manage living with the border. As for his friends, Jeb Jab admits to Terry he's not able to be vegan anymore (which the latter accepts) and Target Employee seeks to get a job at Wendy's. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_41c08e5 | comment |
The very first Scott the Woz video, concerning the Switch announcement, opens with Scott chucking his Wii U out his window. A few videos later, in Most Wanted Nintendo Switch Games, he shows off how he's passing the time waiting for the Switch launch... by cutting to him driving around a parking lot with his Wii U, before smashing it into the pavement. | |

Story Arc | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_42008602 | comment |
Story Arc: Of course, there were the WiiWare Chronicles, Shovelware Variety Hour and Dark Age of Nintendo arcs. There was also an arc revolving around Chet Shaft, starting with his introduction in Game Stores, followed by The Great Mysteries of Gaming with his death at the hands of Officer Steel Wool, and leading up to The Trial where the arc was for the most part resolved until he and Steel Wool rise from their graves at the end of Memory Cards. Mobile Games on Console began a seven episode arc involving Scott's belongings getting repossessed by the bank, eventually culminating in Gaming Revivals with a battle against a freshly revived Steel Wool and Scott using his own resurrection technique to restablize his finances while also buying himself a new house in the process. | |

Metaphorgotten | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_45007296 | comment |
Metaphorgotten: In From Developer to Defunct: "I tried being Activision once, and it was hard. Nobody liked me, I was too scary, and I laid off over 800 people - it was the worst Halloween ever." In Shovelware Variety Hour: Round Two: "We all have a Chicken Shoot in our lives - somebody who released on the Wii for $20 and is sh*t." In Old Series, New Developer: "Things change, mom and dad don't give a sh*t anymore - you don't know why, it just happens - and when my parents give up on me, 343 Industries takes custody." And later on in the same video: "I usually don't think about it that much; when I hear a new team is taking over development of a series, I don't immediately jump to that being a bad sign or anything. But yeah, looking back at a lot of these, uh, the last thing I would want is my child being raised by Capcom Vancouver." In Game Compilations Compilation Vol. 2: "Not only is this a very odd group of friends at a house party, but imagine if those friends ran like sh*t on a Game Boy Advance." In Cloud Gaming: "You can't ask a dog to fit into a cage too small for it or ask a cat to be perfectly streamable online without any latency or lag." Subverted in E3 2000: "It wasn't bad, but it was just sort of a soft year. Sure, Sega was good, but do you remember the dead guy for holding a good E3? No, you remember him for being f*cking dead." Justified in 2D to 3D because Scott accidentally read from the wrong script: Justified and zigzagged in E3 2001 because Scott reads from a book about sex ed, only for it to be about the topic of the video, only for that to be about sex ed again, much to Scott's confusion. In Who Will Be The Next SEGA?, Scott attempts to explain SEGA's demise as a console manufacturer without using any gaming terms, by comparing SEGA and Sony to banana produce companies Chiquita and Dole, and simply replacing the word "console" with "banana bunch". The metaphor breaks down pretty quickly as a result; Scott even admits that "most video game industry problems don't really relate to banana companies that well." | |

Getting Crap Past the Radar | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_4b86a724 | comment |
Getting Crap Past the Radar: Scott already censors all severe swear words, but G4TV (which airs Scott's show under a TV-14-DLSV banner) bleeps them out even more so the word is harder to make out. Despite that, the G4 airing of "Plug and Play Games" did not censor Scott saying "They weren't the only ones to not give a shit" nor his "Oh, fucking shit" when he finds the dead battery on his Plug and Play game, even though the rest of the episode censored "fuck" and "shit." Even the original upload didn't leave that uncensored, indicating a technical error. | |

Downer Ending: The WiiWare Chronicles saga as a whole: in the fifth and final episode, the Wii Shop channel closes, and after a brief apocalypse, everyone realizes how stupid the apocalypse was and things calm back down. Meanwhile, Scott ends the video monologuing how upsetting it is that it's now gone... before bluntly admitting it wasn't worth doing five videos about the subject. | |

Beat Without a "But" | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_4eebbd2d | comment |
Beat Without a "But": Scott's review of the New Super Mario Bros. series ends with Scott saying, "All in all, the New Super Mario Bros. series aren't bad games..." then pausing until the end screen comes on. In "E3 2021," after the Square Enix presentation concludes, Scott remarks, "I didn't like it..." and holds his finger out as if he's going to continue the sentence. He just stands there with his finger out for a few seconds before moving on to complain about the presentation. While wrapping up "Plug and Play Games," Scott seems like he's about to compliment the Plug and Play games but doesn't get very far. A variation of this trope occurs during his video on Mario Kart: Double Dash!! when he talks about Birdo (who has a very...interesting history) and immediately brings up Toadette a mere second later after mentioning Birdo's name and nothing more. | |

Bait-and-Switch Silhouette | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_4f16dbd4 | comment |
Bait-and-Switch Silhouette: A variant occurring in a few episodes such as Wii Channels and Borderline Forever. Scott would show the silhouette of a console, only to reveal a completely different console's picture, poorly shopped and fitted onto the silhouette. An example from Wii Channels: In his episode on Mario Tennis Ultra Smash, he at one point shows a silhouette of the character Toadette, only to announce his excitement that they had added Grover Cleveland into the game, with a picture of the aforementioned president poorly edited over Toadette's silhouette. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: His earlier videos relied less on his surreal humor (although it's still very much present) and had him speaking in a more subdued and deadpan tone. When his videos became more wacky, Scott became a lot more expressive and eccentric. Notably, his first Scott the Woz video ends on a goodbye rather than a gag. See the “evolution� for yourself. Also Scott's friends played different minor roles until solidifying into their main roles around "The Great Mysteries of Gaming" Scott makes it a rule to avoid directly mentioning the fact that his show is a web series or that he has a YouTube channel. However, several early episodes do not follow this rule, and will suggest the viewer "leave a comment" or something similar. Similarly, Scott also makes it a rule to not reference real world current events that aren't directly related to video games, or using humorous analogies when he doesn't have a choice (both as a rule to keep his videos timeless and because he prefers his show be an escape from reality to his viewers). Early episodes break this rule on occasion though, such as in the first episode where he does a cutaway to the past where he jokes about how funny it would be for Donald Trump to become president, or when he mistakes a Nintendo Switch launch event for a Black Lives Matter rally. Also, in early episodes a lot of the characters' personalities are less defined. This is most notable with Rex Mohs (he was far more unhinged and seemed more like an animal than a human), and Jeb Jab (lacking his now-famous love for Gex). The very first season finale, A Very Madden 08 Christmas, uses an original theme instead of an iteration of the famous "Breakout" theme that the later finales have. The first Shovelware Variety Hour episode doesn't feature Scott ranking each of the featured games from worst to best like the future installments do. | |

Trash the Set | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_4ff6f484 | comment |
Trash the Set: At the end of Game Compilations Compilation, Scott realizes too late (when filming the ending of the video outside) that he left his s'mores maker on. Scott unintentionally punches a hole in his wall at the start of The Game Room. At the end of the video, Scott's desk randomly topples over, spilling all of his stuff. This is a regular occurrence, apparently. Downplayed: in order to fund his charity dinner in It's a Bargain Bin Christmas, Scott is forced to sell his famous desk, but gets a new one as a Christmas present at the end of the episode. In Mario Kart 8 | Newton's Worst Nightmare, Scott smashes the mini bookcase on his desk with a hammer while ranting about the game's Battle Mode. The beginning of Remakes, Remasters and Rereleases, where Scott says if he wants to remake his entire life he'd have to start cutting content. Seconds later, he shoves everything off of his desk. The beginning of Physical vs. Digital Games shows Scott complaining about clutter, also leading to Scott shoving everything off of his desk. In History of Nintendo 3DS Rumors and Leaks, as Scott recounts having been pissed off at Steel Diver: Sub Wars leaking in a voiceover, on screen Scott starts throwing stuff off of his desk. In Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash | The Darkest Age of Nintendo, Scott's therapist throws Scott onto his desk, knocking over nearly everything on it in the process. | |

Book Ends: Shovelware Variety Hour: Round Two both starts and ends with Scott laying in a pile of something. In the beginning, it's shovelware Wii games while at the end it's Duncan Hines food products. Season 4's first and last episodes, Anime Games and You're Not an RPG Guy respectively, both involve Scott talking about interests that he's not a fan of and ultimately coming to accept that it's okay if he's not a fan of them and that other people are welcome to enjoy them. The first episode after the finale of The Dark Age of Nintendo (titled Game Packaging) sets up a subtle Myth Arc with Scott's hatred of shapes. Come Episode 200 (Borderline Forever), and Scott has to deal with his hatred of shapes in the form of The Blue Border itself. | |

Journey to the Center of the Mind | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_586589bc | comment |
Journey to the Center of the Mind: At one point in Borderline Forever, Scott asks Jerry to knock him out so that he can travel inside his own head and figure out what the deal with the blue border is, while Jerry assists him from the outside by peering into his ear with a flashlight. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_587515b3 | comment |
And the Rest: In Retro Gaming Merchandise, Scott lists the built-in titles on the NES Classic Edition as "Ice Climber and twenty-nine more games". In We Dare (Wii), Scott described the Wii's varied library as "Fortune Street and the rest of them". In Game Compilations Compilation Vol. 2, Scott points out that the first Midway Arcade Treasures has "Klax and more". | |

Oh, No... Not Again!: In his episode on Nintendo DSiWare, Scott mentions that the service shut down on March 31st, 2017. Cut back to Scott to see his room with a big hole in the wall and fire everywhere. Scott gives a nonchalant "Oh?" as another post-apocalyptic future similar to the one in "The WiiWare Chronicles" series has begun. | |

Nerds Are Virgins | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_5f2b0457 | comment |
Nerds Are Virgins: A running gag. For example, he only joined the Vegans Anonymous Group in A Very Madden 08 Christmas because he thought it was a V.A.G. club. His video on Viral Games plays with the trope: the sole point of the video was talking about enough viral video game in order to be labeled a virginnote specifically, he needed 12 Virgin Points. But at the end of the video, as he was listing off other viral games in order to put himself over the top, Scott accidentally mentions Donkey Kong Barrel Blast, shooting him severely into the negative Virgin Points rangenote going from 11.7 to -962 in seconds flat. His video on Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball reveals that prior to February 2019, he used to think the word "breasts" was pronounced "beans". In E3 2018, Scott claimed that the EA Play demo of a mobile game dragged on for so long that he defied virginity, conceived, and had a biological child in the time it took for said demo to finish. Speed Dating ends with Scott getting certified as a virgin. | |

Valentine's Day Episode: Happens almost every year, with all of them as of yet emphasizing Scott's loneliness and focusing on him either trying to break his streak of loneliness or coping with not having a mate. 2021 never saw a Valentine's Day episode since Scott was taking a three month long break at the beginning of the year. 2017's episode covers Tinder and Scott's attempts of finding a date using the app. 2018's episode has Scott covering The Guy Game, an infamous NSFW quiz game. 2019's episode features the Fanservice-y spinoff of the Dead or Alive fighting game series, Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball. 2020's episode has Scott talking about We Dare, an "adult-oriented" Wii party game released only in Europe and Australia. | |

Heroic Sacrifice: Downplayed since no one actually got hurt in the end, but it still applies. At the end of Borderline Forever, Scott manages to weaken the Blue Border but he finds out that he can't stop it entirely, and that it'll just get bigger if left alone. He realizes that it needs a host, so he willingly allows himself and only him to be obstructed by the Blue Border, saving everyone else from being affected by it. | |

Formula-Breaking Episode | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_670db7d7 | comment |
Formula-Breaking Episode: Since starting his main series, Scott has made nine videos that have nothing to do with video games (Tinder, Stop Smoking!, Get Rich Quick!, As Seen on TV, Homecoming, Chia Pet, The Trial, Speed Dating, and The Funeral). He has also made several videos that aren't even part of the Scott The Woz series at all, and are simply standalone sketches; these are grouped into the "Originals" playlist on his channel. Of the videos connected to previous ones plot-wise, The Trial and The Funeral are the only ones that don't cover video games. Played with Subscription Services. While the video covers some video game streaming services like Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Now, the bulk of the video is really the streaming services with movies and TV such as Netflix and Hulu, since that was where the streaming craze began from. The Season 4 finale, You're Not an RPG Guy, doesn't begin with Scott's signature catchphrase, "Hey all, Scott here." Rather, the episode ends with it. Scott usually does musical numbers for holiday-themed and/or milestone episodes, but he breaks this trend by featuring a musical number to end Season 6's final regular episode (The Commercial Failure), making it the first regular episode in the channel's history to feature a musical number. | |

Gilligan Cut: After Scott finishes playing the top 10 worst reviewed games on Metacritic in The Worst Games of All Time, he expresses hope that those games didn't affect his sanity too much. Cut to Scott letting out an Overly Long Scream. At the end of Console Gaming on the Go, Scott comes to the conclusion that he doesn't want to go inside ever again...only for it to rain. Subverted in that it only convinces Scott to double down. | |

Improbable Weapon User: One of the cops in A Very Madden 08 Christmas is armed with a pair of stapling pliers, instead of a gun like the one his partner uses. Pretty much the entire gang in Borderline Forever uses these when fighting against Brett Favre's forces: Scott wields his frozen Pepto-Bismol sword, Terry uses a pack of carrots as stabbing weapons, Target Employee slaps enemies with his spatula, and Jerry beats foes with his clipboard and pen. Averted with Rex, who instead uses the power of chastity, and Jeb, who just shoots at them with a gun. | |

Christmas Episode | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_6ef9d3fe | comment |
Christmas Episode: Happens every year, and is usually the Season Finale, with the exception of Collector's Editions for Christmas 2018. To note: 2017's A Very Madden 08 Christmas sees Scott's excessive love for the video game Madden 08 putting him at odds with the vegan community at a gathering he was invited to. 2018's Collector's Editions is a regular Scott the Woz episode instead of a finale, with him explaining various forms of video game collector's editions. This was followed up by It's Awesome, Baby!, the actual Season Finale. 2019's It's A Bargain Bin Christmas has Scott attempting to host a charity gala with cheap bargain bin games as prizes to the attendees, after he landed himself into bankruptcy. 2020's You're Not an RPG Guy sees Scott's friends pulling off an intervention on him due to Scott having a major dislike for RPGs, and trying to get him into wanting to play RPGs (even though most of them don't even know what an RPG is). Tons of RPG tropes and elements are explored as Scott explains why he is, as the title puts it, not an RPG guy. 2021's The Gifts of Gaming is a compilation of four Christmas Scott the Woz related topics with a framing story of trying to find who Scott's secret Santa is and Rex Mohs thinking that he's Jesus Christ. The 2022 season finale (even if it came out early 2023) Merry Christmas, Data Design has Scott and friends attempt to compete with Santa at the "Left Pole" (Scott's house) but find the only gifts they have available are Scott's collection of Data Design shovelware. 2023's "Have a Bootleg Christmas" has Scott and friends attempting to sell unlicensed bootleg video games so Scott can buy himself a calendar. | |

The Cuckoolander Was Right: Scott's incredible leaps in logic often turn out to be spot on. Like how the Madden Curse isn't a quirk of sports performance statistics, but an actual curse that befalls people who wear the word Madden on their chest. | |

Played for Laughs in The WiiWare Chronicles, which imagines a post-apocalyptic world after the Wii Shop Channel closes on January 30th, 2019, where Wii consoles with pre-downloaded WiiWare titles are treasured as highly valuable currency. Inverted at the end of the final episode when everyone realized how dumb it was to think the world was ending because of the Wii Shop closing. | |

Mirror Monologue: The therapist in The Dark Age of Nintendo trilogy reveals that he uses a mirror to "go to therapy". We actually see this happen halfway through the first installment (with him venting out his frustrations over Scott), and in the opening of the second installment in the trilogy (with him giving himself a pep talk in front of his mirror). | |

Pop-Culture Urban Legends: invoked Unsurprisingly, the Madden Curse gets spotlighted towards the end of The Great Mysteries of Gaming, with Scott being surprised how "Madden on your chest could lead to injuries". And when Officer Steel Wool attempts to kill Scott to cover up his crimes, Scott abuses this notion. invoked Scott comes to the conclusion that the infamous arcade title Polybius is one, as the evidence just doesn't add up. Of course, that's before the titular arcade cabinet tries to murder him in the woods. | |

Hollywood Restraining Order: "Launch Titles" sees Scott getting one after trying to set up bets on "which pregnant woman will squirt one out first" at a local hospital. His punishment includes staying 50 feet away from any pregnant woman and talking about console launch titles for 14 minutes as community service. At the end of the episode he gets another restraining order for heckling dogs at a local pound. | |

Real Life Writes the Plot | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_786bf97f | comment |
Real Life Writes the Plot: It's blatantly clear in hindsight that the reason why Scott's house burned down at the end of Game Compilations Compilation was because he was moving. Ditto the "Scott gets repossessed" arc that spanned from Mobile Games on Console to Gaming Revivals. The sole point of The WiiWare Chronicles was to go over as many WiiWare games as possible before the Wii Shop Channel closed on January 30th, 2019. Part 2 in particular had a brief tangent about the ability to add Wii Shop Points being removed not too long before the video was posted. Limited Edition Consoles sees Scott being sick during the duration. In reality, Scott was in fact sick at the time of that particular episode being done. Shortly before the characters enter the sewer in Chibi Robo: Zip Lash, Rex runs away, and does not appear again until after Jeb and Dr. Attricks are attacked by the Anti-Gex. Rex explains that he left to get a corn dog, but the real life reason is that they needed somebody to hold the camera in the scenes following Rex's departure, and therefore needed one of the actors to be off screen for a while. The commentary for Great Mysteries of Gaming confirms several examples of this. Originally, the person inviting everyone to dinner was a new character, but the actor who was supposed to play him wasn't available. So then Chet Shaft took his place - but the actor who played him also wasn't available that day. As a result, Chet Shaft appears on a television rather than in-person. Oh yeah, and at one point the episode was going to take place on a train, but this was scrapped because of difficulty finding a suitable location to film. Downplayed with Merry Christmas, Data Design!, which ends with Scott and the gang missing out on their deadline to deliver Christmas presents. In reality, Scott managed to miss out on uploading the holiday special on time, something that he wasn't intending on doing at all. | |

It wasn't until after the fact that the gang (aside from Scott) realizes that they've only started to see the blue border after Scott mentions its existence to them. Cue a breaking news segment reporting that the entire state of Ohio has become affected by the blue border as well. | |

How We Got Here | |

How We Got Here: Downplayed: the final WiiWare Chronicles video explains why Scott's room was wrecked in the fourth installment. As it happens, when word of him owning a Wii full of WiiWare games got out, someone lobbed a grenade into his room, prompting him to flee, leading into the intro of the first installment. The first two Dark Age of Nintendo videos have Scott relaying his experiences with Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival and Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash to a therapist, with the events catching up to the present in the Chibi-Robo: Zip Lash | The Darkest Age of Nintendo. To Delay a Game has Scott realize he should get around to doing the laundry, only to find out the washing machine is broken. While waiting to repair it, he tells the story of a brown-haired white boy - i.e, Scott before realizing he should get around to doing the laundry. | |

Continuity Cavalcade | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_813e694d | comment |
Continuity Cavalcade: Believe it or not, the always-present backdrop seen in every video is an ever-evolving one. Once in a while, something used in a skit will become a permanent fixture in the backdrop from there on out: The earliest examples would be the mock-VHS case for The Internet and You and the other things that call back to it, such as the rainbow hat sitting on top of some denim (referencing what he wore as the main character of it) and the Genesis with Dick Vitale's "Awesome Baby!" College Hoops in it, the latter of which also came from there (albeit in a Nintendo 64 instead). The bottle of Pepto-Bismol was originally used in a gag during Nintendo Switch Presentation where he used it in preparation for holding back any vomit-worthy reactions. The black and white party hat originates from What the Wii U Did Right when Scott is throwing a death party for the console. The goggles sitting on the hat were first used in A Look Back at the 3DS, and are what he referred to as his "Nostalgia Goggles". The Ouya controller became a fixture after the release of Microconsoles. The red headband was used, fittingly enough, in Fitness Games. Scott uses an inflatable alligator as a gag in Nintendo Before Video Games, after which the box for it became a permanent feature on his desk. Scott brings out a tambourine for Wii Music | 10 Years of Terror, and it's promoted to a shelf piece from there. Scott's Madden 08 collection grew to include the Mac, PSP and 08 Collection versions that the gala attendees gave to him at the end of It's a Bargain Bin Christmas; this is one of the few cases where it was made obvious to the viewer. The Xbox shampoo from Game Baths joins the ranks with the party hat and the Pepto-Bismol after said episode. | |

Inherently Funny Words: By Scott's own admission, the entire reason behind the Gex Running Gag is simply that "Gex" is a really funny word. The bloopers for Borderline Forever feature Scott and friends laughing their asses off for minutes on end over the phrase "Stinky Stinky Mr. F*ck". He managed to coin it in the actual series as an in-joke (specifically in the Virtual Boy episode, that came out right before Borderline Forever). According to Scott's recent Reddit AMA, this is the reason for the abundance of rat jokes throughout the latter half of Season 6. | |

Deconstruction | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_8ae880f7 | comment |
Deconstruction: Borderline Forever is one of the main characters' attachment to their respective tropes, as following their tropes makes the blue border wider. They're forced to counter it via Character Development and defying their tropes. At the end of the episode, that character development sticks for Jeb Jab and Target Employee, with Jeb downgrading to volunteer vegan and Target Employee looking for a job at Wendy's. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_8b67aba7 | comment |
Cerebus Retcon: His summation of why Chibi Robo: Zip Lash blows is examined more thoroughly in the full review, and his tone of the delivery in the final summation is in a more serious light than it had been previously. In You're Not A RPG Guy, Scott's friends are all trying to get him into RPGs but turn out to not even know what a RPG is: among other things, Terry thinks it's a gun and Dr. Attricks thinks it's a Guinean political party.note They're both correct, but that's besides the point. Much later, Scott realizes... that he doesn't really know either. The genre has evolved in so many ways and "RPG elements" are so varied and widespread in the medium that a game's status as a RPG can be very debatable (most notably The Legend of Zelda). He reacts with horror when the game the "RPG Delivery Guy" gives him turns out to be his beloved Madden 08. This is done with, of all things, the blue border that appears in every single one of his videos: Borderline Forever reveals that the Blue Border is a fully fledged villainous character that targets Scott and has been obstructing his peripheral vision for as long as he can remember. | |

Literal Metaphor | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_8cf6aa | comment |
Literal Metaphor: In Virtual Boy: I've Seen Better, Scott monologues as Nintendo in 1994-1995, panicking at its competitors releasing brand new consoles and saying, "Throw something at the wall, see what sticks." Cue the Virtual Boy being thrown into a wall, bouncing off of it, and then Scott commenting, "Well, that doesn't." | |

Over the course of The Great Mysteries of Gaming, six people die. Scott tells the audience that they are getting treated for it at the hospital, and will be fine. He's actually right—they're all just fine come It's A Bargain Bin Christmas, with the exception of Chet Shaft, and Officer Steel Wool... The former of which is only a ghost on weekends as a hobby, and both of them come back to life on their own without much fanfare as of Memory Cards. | |

Designated Hero: In-Universe. One his greatest recurrent complaints levied against Ride to Hell: Retribution is just how unlikeable Jake Conway is. Towards the end of his video on the game he’s venomously angry at the game for wanting you root for him despite him killing people at the drop of a hat, torturing people for information repeatedly before killing them anyways, and sexist behavior. | |

Of the Out Of Bounds variety in his video about the first E3 conference in 1995, the same video that introduced his knee slap rating scale. Sony's "$299" moment led to Scott slapping his knee at such a rapid, continuous pace that he was noticeably scarred and his knee was bloody. He was up to 14 slaps before the video cut away. | |

Pretty much the entire gang in Borderline Forever uses these when fighting against Brett Favre's forces: Scott wields his frozen Pepto-Bismol sword, Terry uses a pack of carrots as stabbing weapons, Target Employee slaps enemies with his spatula, and Jerry beats foes with his clipboard and pen. Averted with Rex, who instead uses the power of chastity, and Jeb, who just shoots at them with a gun. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_9255105a | comment |
To Be Continued: Lampshaded in the end of EyeToy for PlayStation 2, where he goes to a store called "To Be Continued" to buy yet another shoelace and it turns out he bought the Xbox Kinect (which is Xbox's take on the PS2's Eye Toy). Done more seriously at the end of Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash | The Darker Age of Nintendo when Scott realizes to his mounting horror that the final game from the Dark Age of Nintendo he has to talk about is "Chibi-Robo Zip Lash". "The Gifts of Gaming" ends with Scott opening his present from Chet Shaft... which turns out to be Donkey Kong Barrel Blast. Scott in response openly states "[he'll] get to [it] next year". Played straight at the end of the first part of his Wii U retrospective video, obviously, proceeded after a joke "cliffhanger narration title card" stating on whether or not Scott will talk about LEGO City Undercover. | |

Shaped Like Itself | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_94680696 | comment |
Shaped Like Itself: In To Milk a Franchise, he said that "what once was as consistent as Mega Man became as consistent asinvoked Mega Man." His introduction of Devil's Third pondered "But how does something so bad... become so bad?" In The Best Selling Games of All Time, he points out that "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, also known as 'Scott's Favorite Grand Theft Auto,' is my favorite Grand Theft Auto." Scott accidentally reveals his blood type on a piece of paper in Cancelled Games. His blood type is "blood". In History of Nintendo 3DS Rumors and Leaks, Scott calls the 3DS "a monumental leap forward for all things called 3DS". In Old Series, New Developer, Scott explains that the primary function of the first Luigi's Mansion game as a launch title for the Nintendo GameCube was "to show off just how graphically impressive a Luigi's Mansion could be." In Super Mario 3D Land | 3D in 3D, Scott calls 3D Mario "a staple of 3D Mario games." In E3 2001, Scott explains, "E3 2001 occured from May 17th to the 19th in 2001 at the Los Angeles Convention Center, as any E3 2001 would." In Nintendo GameCube: Shaping a Generation, Scot refers to the Nintendo GameCube as "Nintendo's first foray into the GameCube market." It's a running gag in his Mario Kart retrospectives. Aside from Double Dash!!, the series doesn't exactly reinvent itself often, which isn't bad considering the core gameplay is really strong (he does hold against Mario Kart 8 that the antigravity gimmick doesn't really change anything gameplay-wise, besides wackier track design). But it does make for some funny reactions. | |

Never My Fault: In Plug and Play Games, Scott recklessly cuts open the package one game was shipped to him in, accidentally cutting a vital wire in half. After a Beat, he claims that it was shipped to him "with the wires pre-cut for some reason". Brought up frequently in Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash | The Darkest Age of Nintendo, where he notes that Nintendo seemed to be pathologically averse to admitting that the franchise was struggling not because the games were inherently bad, but because Nintendo, the distributor, kept persistently screwing up how to market and sell the games — the original was released at the end of a low-selling console's lifespan and got very little advertising, Park Patrol was made Wal-Mart exclusive at the last minute, the remake of the first game and Clean Sweep never made it out of Japaninvoked, and Photo Finder was a gimmicky title that came out at a point when people had lost interest in the 3DS's gimmicks. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: In The Great Mysteries of Gaming: Steel Wool is the only person at the dinner table to not be shocked alongside everyone else about Chet's sudden murder, foreshadowing The Reveal of him being the culprit. Later in the same episode, the glowstick used by Jeb's killer is the same color as Steel Wool's, implicating him further. In Borderline Forever: These lines from the "Stupid Nintendo Games" musical number foreshadows the entire episode's plot and ending: Prior to the show's border becoming the episode's main focus, many of the games Scott talks about also utilize borders. There's the customizable borders for the Super Game Boy; the design of Super Nintendo boxes with game art surrounded by a black border; Yoshi's Story showing what fruit you've eaten in a stage as a border; SNES games converted into Game Boy games having shrunken borders; etc. There's a brief mention of Madden NFL games, specifically stating that Vince Young on the cover of '08 was followed by the disappointment that is Brett Favre on the cover of '09. Brett Favre himself acts in an antagonistic role in the second half. | |

Continuity Nod: In Sonic the Hedgehog 3 | Half of a Masterpiece, Scott's copy of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 still has the line he drew on it during The Rarest of Games. In Call of Duty on Wii, Scott still has the same Wii Remote that he broke in The Wii: Underpowered but Underrated. Scott still has the framed Wario World cover art he acquired in The Art of Box Art, as shown in various videos like Shovelware Variety Hour: Round Two and Game Collecting. Both Wii Channels and Wii Chess | It Exists! show the same European Wii U that Scott bought to play We Dare on. In Wii Chess | It Exists!, Scott adds a third right to the list of rights first shown in Pre-Orders. In Borderline Forever, Scott's shelf has fake VHS covers of various other VHS styled bits he's done over the years. The Glover Room from Value Pack Games also makes its return here. | |

Cluster Bleep-Bomb: The only way Scott can properly introduce Chibi Robo: Zip Lash is with one of these. A quick one happens when Scott compares Mario Kart 7's method of unlocking characters with its predecessor, Mario Kart Wii. One from the cops in A Very Madden 08 Christmas, as they bust down the door to the vegans' gathering in an arrest attempt caused by Scott framing the latter. In Wii U: Birth of a Death (Part I), Scott kicks off the Wii U discussion proper with one of these.

…And That Little Girl Was Me: Played for Laughs in To Delay a Game where Scott immediately admits that the story he's about to tell is about himself. In History of 3DS Rumors and Leaks, he eventually starts talking about a leak of a Yoshi's New Island-themed 3DS XL being reported by gaming websites, with the general consensus being that the design (bright green covered in polka dots) was horribly ugly... before admitting that he made the picture out of boredom back in high school and that it accidentally went viral after a lazy journalist plucked it off Google without checking if it was real. | |

Rule of Three | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_a6cda066 | comment |
Once again his main criticism against Cloud Gaming. While playing full quality games on any device with no download required sounds cool, Cloud Gaming services generally have crippling issues such as limited libraries, not owning what you buy (meaning if you get banned or the service shuts down you essentially lit the money you paid for any games you bought on fire), needing a fast internet connection constantly (and even then they still play worse than running them on the system), and, in certain cases, redundancy as anyone who has the money to buy a cloud gaming console (such as an NVidea Shield) could easily buy a normal console for a similar price. Not to mention the lack of a necessary download only helps when you have a poor internet connection… in which cases you won’t be able to play cloud games either. | |

Caustic Critic | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_ae4b1ce1 | comment |
Caustic Critic: Typically averted with Scott giving each game a fair shake, in his own unique way, but there have been games that pushed Scott to near Angry Video Game Nerd levels of anger and bile. Him slipping into this is usually done to show just how offensively horrible what he is reviewing is. Chibi-Robo: Zip Lash is the most common victim of his hate, being thrown in his toilet en mass and being the subject of the finale of the Dark Side of Nintendo mini-series. The review of Ride To Hell: Retribution sees Scott get steadily angrier and angrier until he's yelling near the end. Parodied with his hatred of Madden 09 which has him loathing it with his heart and soul in spite of it being near identical to his beloved Madden 08. | |

Two Aliases, One Character: Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash | The Darkest Age of Nintendo reveals that prior to being a therapist, Jerry Attricks originally was a news anchor, confirming that he's the "News: The News" anchor from A Very Madden 08 Christmas. The judge shown on the advertising in The Trial introduces himself as Judge Abstinence, calling back to his previous appearance as DJ Abstinence in Homecoming. | |

Spoof Aesop: The grand conclusion of The Dark Age of Nintendo series: Scott's main takeaway from the events of Memory Cards: Zig-zagged: The main takeaways Scott gets from the events of "You're Not an RPG Guy" are that it's perfectly okay that he's not an RPG guy, as that's just his own opinion (and that he at least likes some RPGs) and he shouldn't have to force himself to be something he isn't... and that sharks are just sexy fish at the end of the day. | |

Take That! | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: The very first Scott the Woz video, concerning the Switch announcement, opens with Scott chucking his Wii U out his window. A few videos later, in Most Wanted Nintendo Switch Games, he shows off how he's passing the time waiting for the Switch launch... by cutting to him driving around a parking lot with his Wii U, before smashing it into the pavement. In Call of Duty on Wii, he states that there are two kinds of Wii games: anti-Nazi, and pro-Nazi. Wii Music is the only game in the pro-Nazi pile. "This game blows! (chucks Chibi-Robo: Zip Lash case into toilet)" Right before Scott gets into discussing Nintendo's E3 2018 Direct, he pauses briefly to "wipe some sh*t off of [his] shoe". Cue him slamming a shoe onto his table, adorned with a piece of paper reading "Nintendo's E3 Conference 2018". The Art of Box Art sees Scott's take on the "Are video games art?" debate, which can best be summarized with his blunt remark that "[The question] is one of the dumbest questions out there[...]; of course they are." "Can't wait to pop open Sonic Mania Plu- (spots the Sonic Forces ad; tosses case away in fear) AHHHH!" Scott points toward a Burger King as proof that he has a mental breakdown after learning about the origins of his name. "I've seen enough things sponsored by Raid: Shadow Legends to the point where I truly know I never want to play it." It's A Bargain Bin Christmas has characters repeatedly express ire at Scott for getting them Battleborn. Also, a clip of all the Recent Murderees groaning, with Rex shouting "WHAT THE F*CK?!", used in reaction to anything from Scott giving them all of the bargain bin games, to... Spree Candy Canes. E3 2019 has Scott saying that he likes the initial look at Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, but complains that "this pesky little thing won't come off" as he tries to scrub away the EA logo from the game's title logo. One of the games Scott tries out in Wii Accessories is Cabela's Big Game Hunter with a Wii rifle gun accessory included. As the game boots up and the logo for Activision (who published the game) appears, Scott panicks and aims the gun desperately at it. During You're Not an RPG Guy, Target Employee reveals that his brother, Wendy's Employee, had desired to see Scott play NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139... only to wind up giving up saying the full title, and assuming his brother was having a stroke. Whenever the Nintendo 64 is mentioned, you can count on Scott to mention the controller, and not in a positive light. The first 5 minutes of Borderline Forever is a roast against the entire "video game discussion" genre of YouTube videos and the YouTubers who create said videos themselves, making fun of the commonplace tropes, cliches and running gags common amongst most of them. Wii U: Downfall of a Downfall (Part II) ends with Scott potentially dying while in his coma immediately after mentioning Mario Party 10. | |

Scott refuses to let anyone else leave because the party is over at 9 and "we at least owe [the host] this." Scott and the others then attempt to figure out who the murderer is between all of them. | |

Hypocritical Humor: In Midnight Releases, Scott decides against buying snow pants for the midnight launch of Pokémon Sword and Shield due to them not being something he realistically needs, despite him buying, among other things, lots of food rations, an emergency snake bite kit, bug spray, and camouflaged clothes. In Used Games, he goes on a rant about game cases and cartridges that are worn or have been damaged in any way, and to illustrate it, he deliberately damages some game cases. | |

Happens during Chibi-Robo: Zip Lash | The Darkest Age of Nintendo in response to hearing that the titular game exists, after hearing a statement that he was adopted (in which he gave a much more positive response to, instead). Multiple times throughout his Shovelware Variety Hour mini-series, especially in Round Three in response to Data Design Interactive and its games. A really big one in You're Not An RPG Guy, once he discovered that Madden 08 can technically qualify as an RPG because of how broad the term encompasses.

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_c2f149ae | comment |
Bonus Feature Failure: invokedHis biggest critique of Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash is that "Mega Battles", the game's main selling point, don't work all that well—if one player is giant and the other isn't, the game becomes one-sided, but if both players are giant, then the game isn't really any different from playing normally. He argues that there's no real strategy, since Mega Mushrooms aren't contested or hard to reach, but at the same time, they're not crazy and chaotic enough to make the game a hilariously unbalanced rollercoaster. | |

Borderline Forever, even if it was released a week before the next regular episode of the channel came out, was treated as such, as its the 200th episode in the series (treated as a Big Damn Movie) that wraps up a character arc of Scott hating shapes (as previously mentioned in Game Packaging). It also hosts a MASSIVE collection of call-backs and references to the past 199 episodes as if the 200th episode (which has a special logo shown at the end credits to commemorate it) was it's last. | |

Insane Troll Logic: Near the end of A Very Madden 08 Christmas, right as Scott attempts to turn himself in for stealing all of Target's Madden 18 copies, the police no longer consider it to be a crime due to Madden 28 being recently announced. The end of Game Consoles That Refused to Die sees Scott put the saying "If you can survive the first 13 years of your life, you can survive just about anything" to the test... by plugging in the PS2 he had been smashing with a hammer. The bottle of alcohol Scott was drinking in Star Fox Zero | Bad Game or Baddest Game? apparently derives its flavor from how Scott had his thumb placed over the label. The end of the episode reveals he was covering the word "rubbing". The plot twist of The Great Mysteries of Gaming is that Officer Steel Wool had killed Chet because of his money laundering, but he was too shy to admit it. So he decided to kill everyone else. As Scott gets more and more anxious over the Wii Shop Channel closing down in The WiiWare Chronicles V, one of the things he says to himself is, "They should just make death illegal." Most of the humor in The Trial comes from this trope. In Speed Dating, when Terry asks why what is supposedly Scott's blood in a jar yellow, Scott explains that it's because he's colorblind. Kay Swiss shows up to Scott's intervention in You're Not an RPG Guy to essentially accuse Scott of ruining the economy by buying RPGs and not playing them. Essentially, because Scott keeps buying them, that causes game companies to produce more of them because he apparently wants to play them... only for people to wind up not buying them because he keeps complaining about them being made. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_c6996a4 | comment |
Mid-Review Sketch Show: While most Scott The Woz episodes are mostly about the games or other gaming-related phenomena that Scott reviews, some episodes have a much greater focus on an overarching narrative, with plot and other characters besides Scott. This includes the season finales and episodes such as Game Stores, The Great Mysteries of Gaming, Memory Cards, The Commercial Failure, The Dark Age of Nintendo mini-series, and Borderline Forever. Some episodes skip the "review" part entirely in lieu of original sketches, such as Homecoming, The Trial, and Speed Dating. | |

Cliffhanger | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_c6b8d37a | comment |
Cliffhanger: The end of Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash | The Darker Age of Nintendo features Scott preparing to review the third and final game that came out during Nintendo's Audience-Alienating Erainvoked phase in 2015 (and is also a game that ruined a beloved series he cares for), Mario Party: The Top 100. He then realized that game came out two years later, but then also realizes a trail of toilet water that leads to him encountering the infamous Chibi-Robo: Zip Lash! game that he chucked in the toilet, ages ago. Cue Scott screaming from the top of his lungs, and a Smash Cut to the endslate. Played for laughs in the end of the first part of his Wii U retrospective series, where Scott makes a coma-related analogy about the range of the launch titles for the console... which then leads to a brief Cutaway Gag of a comatose Scott being found by Target Employee and Jeb Jab in Scott's game room. invoked But then in Part II, it turns out Scott being comatose wasn't a joke; the episode sees Scott continuing the retrospective while in a coma. And then, at the end of the video, immediately after mentioning Mario Party 10, he flatlines. | |

Guilty Pleasure: invokedHis opinion on New Super Mario Bros. 2 is that while it's an incredibly lazy game that does almost nothing to innovate on its predecessors and mostly wastes its potential, it also has a lot of well-designed courses and a very satisfying focus on coin collection that causes him to come back to it, comparing it to junk food. | |

Way Past the Expiration Date: New Super Mario Bros. | What's New Is Old opens with Scott drinking (and spitting out) milk that he left outside but had never opened for a week, believing that not opening it makes it technically still "new." Game Foods ends with Scott eating a can of Super Mario soup, not realizing until it was too late that the soup expired 3 years ago. He ended up being admitted to the hospital again. | |

Rage Breaking Point | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_c819533b | comment |
Rage Breaking Point: After mentioning that people in 2013 thought that microconsoles had a chance to succeed, Scott goes off an almost two minute long rant about how stupid they are, wrapping up by voicing his concerns that he may have scoliosis (and yes, he's still yelling when he does this). He goes on similar rants at the end of Third Party Controllers and Pre-Orders about those videos' respective subjects. Scott becomes so angry at Mario Kart 8's lackluster Battle Mode that he swings a hammer at the shelf on his desk, breaking it apart. As for the other characters, Rex becomes increasingly frustrated at Mario Tennis Ultra Smash's modes that lack the Mega Mushroom feature. He loses it once Scott gets to review the Classic Mode (i.e. basically just regular tennis). | |

Self-Deprecation | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_c9597a03 | comment |
Self-Deprecation: Scott laments about the borders that can't be turned off in Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection by comparing it directly to the blue border he uses in every episode of his. Scott admits that he played Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on a Mac — cut to a scene of Scott doing a little jig before a text appears, stating "I'm Irrelevant". Borderline Forever has a lot of fun with this. The video opens with "How To Talk About Video Games", a tutorial VHS lampooning every standard trope of the genre. Not only Scott uses quite a few of them himself, a good half of the reviewer sphere are seen actively taking notes (including James Rolfe, who is the Trope Maker for the vast majority of them). A later plot point of the video is that Scott's blue border starts acting up whenever he or his friends push their respective one-note running gags too hard. | |

Halloween Costume Characterization | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_c99045f3 | comment |
Halloween Costume Characterization: The costumes everyone wears in Memory Cards mostly reflect (sort of) the things they fear the most. Scott's costume is the front cover of Madden 09, Terry's is "a person" (i.e. himself carrying ground beef, although it helps that Terry is vegan), Wendy's Employee also dresses as himself, Jeb dresses as a pirate (which he says is a Gex costume; the only costume in the episode to not reflect someone's fears), and Rex tapes a mirror onto his face in order to "dress up" as Scott. | |

Damned by Faint Praise: His Shovelware Variety Hour videos involve this frequently, including stating that he could play Pizza Delivery Boy "for dozens and dozens of seconds", and referring to Pirates vs. Ninjas Dodgeball as "the best pirate game on our list today" (it's one of two). In New Super Mario Bros. | What's New Is Old, the last thing Scott had to say was that "the New Super Mario Bros. series aren't bad games," followed by a half minute of silence. His quick introduction of Sega for E3 2000: Scott mentioning how the release of Paper Mario: The Origami King was met with "...reception." | |

Serial Escalation | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_ce104b8e | comment |
Serial Escalation: So far, every season finale has been much bigger than the last. A Very Madden 08 Christmas was just a simple, goofy Christmas skit that wasn't much longer than any of Scott's other episodes. It's Awesome Baby! had a much more ambitious plot about alternate universes and included musical numbers, art-style shifts, and an giant robot fight between two video games. While not as ambitious as the previous Christmas special, It's A Bargain Bin Christmas included two of the biggest cameos in any Scott The Woz episode, and ended with an actual change to the status quo, being Scott selling his desk and getting a new, albeit broken, one. The Dark Age of Nintendo trilogy uses this trope and runs with it, with each sketch subplot becoming more and more absurd as each video goes on. The 200th episode special Borderline Forever is an hour-long movie that not only sees call-backs and deconstructions of all tropes and running gags in the Scott The Woz series up to this point, but features countless YouTuber cameos, four musical numbers, and a story of Scott and friends attempting to defeat the blue border once and for all, traveling to space and fighting powerful foes along the way. It's not a season finale, but it might as well be. The Gifts of Gaming isn't as grand in story scale but is a half hour long compilation of four holiday themed episodes with a framing device. Zig-zagged with Merry Christmas, Data Design!, due to the penultimate episode of that season having a grandiose musical number at the end, while the season finale does not feature any musical numbers at all. To make up for it, it is a holiday-themed Spiritual Successor to the Wii Shovelware Variety Hour series of videos thats dedicated to Data Design, one of the biggest shovelware game developers in gaming history. | |

Humor Dissonance: invoked Discussed in the 200th episode special Borderline Forever.

One of which is when you are worried that a joke won't land, just throw up yellow text on the screen declaring it to be a "Funny Moment!" and another is to constantly use a humorous tone even without actual comedy, to make escaping criticism easier. | |

Video Game Perversity Potential: Discussed with the PictoChat (which kinda stretches the definition of "video game") in Nintendo DS: Touched at First Sight and Wii Channels, shown below in respective order: | |

Animesque: The last third of Anime Games, appropriately enough, has Scott pulled over into an anime fight scene (with explosions, hand beams and giant mechas) against one Dr. Anna May, who attempts to eliminate Scott for his distaste in all things anime. | |

A Rare Sentence | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_dd9fba61 | comment |
A Rare Sentence: A major source of comedy in his videos. In Mario Kart: Double Dash!! | Double Trouble: "How many sentences start with 'I bought NBA Live 04 because of the Mario Kart bonus disc!'?" In Game Packaging, in regards to the sentence, "I mean, the PlayStation box art sort of ripped off the original Game Boy box art," Scott adds the first tally to a "How Many Times Somebody Has Said This" chart. In The WiiWare Chronicles II regarding Muscle March: "I'm part of a band of greased-up muscle freaks trying to regain their protein powder, and that's only the third time I've said that today." In Shovelware Variety Hour: Round Two: "I'm sure you've heard this today already, but I have to reiterate it: Smurf Dance Party's main problem is a lack of content." In Retro Gaming Merchandise, regarding Scott's disappointment with the My Arcade mini cabinets: "Now, I'm sure somebody must be saying, 'Well, Scott, that's just Pac-Man. You should try Karate Champ!' [beat] Who the f*ck said that?!" In Wii Play Motion | Eh, Why?: "There's not much to Pose Mii Plus. I didn't think I'd say that today." In The Video Game Walkthrough: "The Strategy Guide is the thesaurus of video games!" Cut to Scott with a mostly-filled tally chart saying, "I have said that so many times today." In Game Boy: When Boy Met Game: "Mole Mania debuted on the Game Boy, that's something you hear everyday." In Gamecube Was Best: | |

Rage Quit: In Chibi-Robo Zip Lash | The Darkest Age of Nintendo, Scott officially gives up on the game when he discovers he doesn't have anywhere near enough coins to unlock the final boss. After all the game has put him through, and partly because he was frustrated there was no hinting that he would need to save up the coins, he concludes the best course of action is to just watch the end of the game on YouTube. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_deb39de3 | comment |
Bad Future: Played for Laughs in The WiiWare Chronicles, which imagines a post-apocalyptic world after the Wii Shop Channel closes on January 30th, 2019, where Wii consoles with pre-downloaded WiiWare titles are treasured as highly valuable currency. Inverted at the end of the final episode when everyone realized how dumb it was to think the world was ending because of the Wii Shop closing. Super Mario Galaxy | Ten Years of Bliss opens with Scott looking forward to the year 2027, which is overrun by a Robo Ebola epidemic. | |

Casual Danger Dialogue | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_df41acb | comment |
When Wendy's Employee dies in Memory Cards, everyone hardly remarks on it outside of lamenting that they wanted to be the first to die, and the only real protocol being that his brother Target Employee shows up in his stead for the following videos... and his brother discusses Wendy's Employee's status like he's on vacation, rather than anything resembling dead. | |

Idiosyncratic Ratings Scale | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_e53231b2 | comment |
Idiosyncratic Ratings Scale: Played with; he never sticks to one consistent rating scale (for the sake of comedy). For instance, in Launch Games, he uses a one-to-six rating scale, while in Virtual Boy | I've Seen Better, he rates the games on a scale of one to twelve. The two exceptions are for the two Wii Play videos, both of which see him using a one-to-four rating scale to rate each minigame in Wii Play and Wii Play Motion, and for E3 videos, where he always sticks to a scale of one to five knee slaps to rate press conferences (with a half point determined by a snap). | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: In Chibi-Robo: Zip Lash | The Darkest Age of Nintendo, the fact that Scott doesn't say "Hey all, Scott here" until about four minutes in hints at the Sanity Slippage his experience with the game has caused. Scott typically ensues a lot of classic "angry gamer reviewer" tropes so when Ride to Hell: Retribution has him sounding like one by the end you know how much it's trying his patience. | |

In Cloud Gaming, Scott repeatedly does a Spit Take every time he mentions Google Stadia (*spits*) by name. After doing that multiple times, he finally cuts it out by saying "I ran out of fluids". | |

Malicious Misnaming: He constantly refers to Toadette as Grover Cleveland in Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash | The Darker Age of Nintendo. This is less out of dislike for the character and more mocking the game's attempt to conceal she was unlockable, despite still showing her very distinct silhouette.

Incredibly Lame Fun: In Wii Channels, Scott screams in utter excitement at the display theme setting option on the Nintendo Switch's settings menu.

Somewhat justified since Scott was recounting a kindergarten memory. | |

ItsTheSameSoItSucks | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_f2c56f0e | comment |
It's the Same, So It Sucks: invokedHis breakdown of the New Super Mario Bros series leans heavily on his impression that the games quickly became rather stagnant—while he generally has nothing bad to say about their nature as platformers, complimenting the level design and the occasional new features, he also attacks them for their Strictly Formula nature and lack of advancement—at one point going so far as to switch around footage from the Wii and Wii U versions to show how little the series had evolved. He even extends this to the 3D Land and 3D World games (though he's a lot more positive about those games on the whole), saying that their strong similarities to the New series when previous 3D platformers had mostly charted their own direction made it hard to get excited for them. | |

Fading into the Next Song | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_f3cf057b | comment |
Fading into the Next Song: A variation occurs during the end of "Just Buy the Games" festured at the end of The Commercial Failure. Because the song ends on a long E note, the sudden cut to the endslate and "Break In" (which, by the way, starts with a punctuated E note in the melody) before the former song ends makes for a smooth transition. | |

Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_f466c9b1 | comment |
Overly Long Scream: Scott lets one out after he played the top 10 worst reviewed games on Metacritic, only stopping while signing a timeshare. He lets out another one (although it's more of a mix between a scream and a groan) at the beginning of Console Gaming on the Go. | |

Narm Charm | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_f646b904 | comment |
Narm Charm: invoked One of the reasons Scott prefers Dead Rising to Dead Rising 4 is because the former presents itself and its protagonist, Frank West, as super serious, but allows you to do ridiculous things and use very silly weapons, leading to an amusing contrast. Since the fourth installment makes Frank a more self-aware wisecracker, Scott believes it loses some of the first game's charm. | |

Audience-Alienating Era | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_fc65fb63 | comment |
Audience-Alienating Era:invoked His Dark Age of Nintendo videos focus on the late days of the Wii U (and, to a lesser extent, the 3DS), which he regards as such. During 2015, Nintendo was essentially forced to support their consoles by themselves due to lack of interest, and was already planning their transition to the Switch. His "big three" of the period (Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival, Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash, and Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash) all came out within two months of each other. | |

Brick Joke | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: In Homecoming, Scott discloses that, rather than actually go to his school's homecoming dance, he would stay home and count all of his copies of Premium Rush. At the end, when Scott's forced to abruptly end his homecoming dance, it's discovered that the goodie bags he made only contain Premium Rush. In Game Boy Color: It Just Sorta Happened, Scott says that if Nintendo ever published The Little Mermaid II: Pinball Frenzy for the system, he would scream. 5 minutes afterward, while listing the third party offerings on the system published by Nintendo, Scott mentions The Little Mermaid II: Pinball Frenzy being among them, causing Scott to hunch over his desk and let out a scream. In Gaming Press Conferences, Scott decides to squeeze in some laughter about Ubisoft's "funny host" four minutes from then into his schedule. Almost exactly four minutes later, after criticizing Nintendo's E3 2015 presentation for its slow pacing, he suddenly lets out a giggle. In The First E3 (1995), one of the articles in The Pause This Frame Times is "Leprosy: Comeback of the Century?" At the end of Console Redesigns, Scott points out how console redesigns can prevent a console from fading away like a fad, "like the Tamagotchi or leprosy." At the end of Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash | The Darkest Age of Nintendo, Jerry expresses his desire to start his own therapy business, calling it the Think Barrel. Borderline Forever reveals that he made this dream into reality, with Scott arranging for an appointment with him there. In the Toys to Life video, Jeb Jab managed to buy thirty acres of farm land (for no reason or purpose) on behalf of Rex Mohs's Waste Chasers business. At the end of the video, after the company was revealed to be a complete scam, Jeb manages to use up all thirty acres of farm land for the sole purpose of keeping the massive waste of "Toys to Life" related stuff. Also in Toys to Life, Scott opens with a bit where he proclaims himself as a god, granting a bunch of “toys� (implied to be of the adult variety) life. This seems to have very little to do with the rest of the episode’s plot until the end, where he reflects on what happened: In the Donkey Kong Barrel Blast episode, his review of the game opens with him declaring his intent of defeating the titular cursed game, and "get recognition - a custom mug, at least!" At the end of the video, the curse manifests, it and Scott face off in a big Animesque clash... and it immediately cuts to him at his desk, battered and holding a "World's Best Virgin" mug. In Sonic & Knuckles | Locked & Loaded, when Scott sees the game gives the choice between two playable characters, he remarks "I hope one of 'em's Jimmy Buffett!" Later, at the end of the video, as he compliments the Genesis era Sonic games and says more people should appreciate them, he makes one concession: | |

Once a Season | |
Scott The Woz (Web Video) / int_ff9e9dde | comment |
Once a Season: There are a few Scott staples that usually occur once each season, which Scott counts as a year's worth of episodes: As of Season 4, every season has had exactly one episode based around a Sonic game, usually uploaded in August.note Season 4's episode on Sonic 3 was in September, as Scott took a break from uploading in August of that year. Every season in March, Scott uploads a video discussing the Nintendo Switch (these videos are usually uploaded on the first week of March, around the time when the Switch was first released on 2017). Other than the first of these videosnote Nintendo Switch: 3 Days In, they all follow incredibly similar formats: yearly retrospective videos in which Scott lists the games that came out within the year, reviews specific games on the list, discusses other Switch news and tidbits, and generally talks about his experiences with the system for the year. Every season except Season 4 has a video covering that year's E3. note Season 4 was uploaded in 2020, and there was no E3 that year; instead, Scott uploaded a video about gaming press conferences in general around the same week where E3 2020 would've been held. You can also count on at least one video about an older E3 each season, though the first two seasons actually had two of these. At least one non-game related sketch episode. The Season Finale will always be a much longer, higher production values episode than usual (with some of them featuring a musical number), with an actual plot and heavily featuring Scott's friends. Almost every one of them so far has been a Christmas Episode. Every 50 episodes (the first three of them being season finales), Scott adds more physical releases of Madden 08 to his desktop collection. This is broken as of Merry Christmas, Data Design!, the 250th episode, as Scott added zero physical releases of Madden 08 to his desk. Since Season 2, Scott will have at least one episode/special per season that features a musical number. | |
