In episode 7 of season 7 of Angry Video Game Nerd, the Nerd takes on a new challenge as he plays various Tiger Electronic Games. These handheld games were popular in the 90s and were often based on popular media franchises such as Sonic the Hedgehog, Mortal Kombat, and even Star Wars.

The Nerd begins by introducing us to the world of Tiger Electronic Games and their history. He explains that these games were produced by Tiger Electronics Inc, a company that was owned by Hasbro. They were very popular in the 90s, especially because they were affordable and portable. They were often sold in stores like Kmart and Toys R Us, as well as at gas stations, convenience stores, and even vending machines.

As the Nerd begins to play the games, it becomes clear that they are not very good. In fact, most of them are downright terrible. The graphics are low quality, the sound is poor, and the gameplay is clunky. The Nerd struggles to understand the controls and how to play the game, frequently pausing to read through the poorly written instruction manuals.

Through his gameplay, the Nerd showcases some of the most bizarre and ridiculous games created by Tiger Electronics. He plays Sonic the Hedgehog 2, which is a poorly made version of the Sega Genesis game. He also tries out Mortal Kombat 3, which is almost impossible to play due to the lack of a proper D-pad.

As the episode goes on, the Nerd becomes more and more frustrated with the games. He can't believe that these games were ever popular or that people actually enjoyed playing them. He frequently comments on how hard it is to play the games and how the controls make no sense.

Despite the frustration, the Nerd soldiers on and continues to play through the various games. He even tries out some of the less well-known games like X-Men, Star Wars, and Judge Dredd. Each game presents its own unique set of challenges and the Nerd struggles with each one.

Throughout the episode, the Nerd explores the various features of each game. He provides commentary on the poor graphics and sound quality, as well as the confusing gameplay mechanics. He frequently pauses the game to read through the instruction manual or to try to figure out how to perform certain actions.

One of the more interesting parts of the episode is when the Nerd tries out a game called Double Dragon 3. This game is notorious for being impossible to beat due to a glitch in the game's programming. The Nerd does his best to try to beat the game, but ultimately fails due to the glitch.

Overall, the episode is a funny and informative look into the world of Tiger Electronic Games. The Nerd's commentary and frustration with the games add to the humor of the episode, and viewers will certainly get a kick out of watching him struggle to play through the various titles. If you're a fan of retro gaming or just want to see what some of the worst games of the 90s were like, this episode is definitely worth a watch.
