History Awesome / NicoB

* A meta-example where somebody paid Creator/ToddHaberkorn to [[https://twitter.com/Richter_Cadell/status/957089702317838336 restate a line that Nico said as Korekiyo]].

** In probably the most ironic example, he somehow manages to turn a CriticalResearchFailure into HilariousInHindsight in ''[[VideoGame/KingdomHeartsX Kingdom Hearts χ]]'': his prediction that Terra, Aqua, and Ventus [[note]]three characters who lived hundreds of years after the events of ''χ''[[/note]] being members of the Dandelions (which many Picky Penguins called him out on in the comments) became rather ironic ''the very next day'', when the ''Union χ'' trailer revealed that [[spoiler:Ventus actually ''was'' a member of the Dandelions]]. While Nico has predicted future plot twists before (see the [[spoiler:Tengan]] example above), this is a particularly notable example because, as with ''Investigations 2'', he somehow managed to predict a shocking plot twist [[RightForTheWrongReasons based on factually incorrect information]].

** Episode 11 of ''VisualNovel/TheGreatAceAttorney'' demonstrates just how good Nico is at making voices, with a whopping ''[[UpToEleven THIRTEEN]]'' new voices being showcased.[[note]]Hart Vortex, Barok van Zieks, Cosney Megundal, Beppo, Oscar Fairplay, Adam Ladyfirst, four of the jurors (Juror #2 has the Justine Courtney voice and Juror #4 doesn't speak), and British versions of the Judge, Komaeda, and Larry voices[[/note]]

** Then an [[UpToEleven even worse one]] comes along and is enough to [[YourHeadASplode make Nico's head explode.]]

* Episode 18 of VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles2: Nico pulls ''KOS-MOS'', Miss "0.1% drop rate" herself, while awakening blades for Zeke. For comparison, LetsPlay/{{Chuggaaconroy}} (he himself BornLucky) even told the viewers to guess as to when he was going to pull her out -- he got her in ''Episode 145'', during the post-game.

* For the final episode of ''VideoGame/NEOTheWorldEndsWithYou'', Nico presents [[https://youtu.be/a8i5aveSQhs?t=28 his cover of Calling]], which he had spent many "And Now Back To" segments for the game singing to.

* Nico beating the Pit of 100 Trials before he even set foot into Chapter 7.

** Secondly, the ending. [[spoiler: Specifically, Monokuma's fight with an unknown attacker. Despite the actual duel being a CurbStompBattle resulting in OffWithHisHead, Monokuma still ends up delivering a brutal verbal beatdown to his silent foe, and getting the last laugh both literally and metaphorically via an explosive triggered by the bear's forbidden action.]]

** Episode 11 of ''[[VisualNovel/DaiGyakutenSaiban The Great Ace Attorney]]'' demonstrates just how good Nico is at making voices, with a whopping ''[[UpToEleven THIRTEEN]]'' new voices being showcased.[[note]]Hart Vortex, Barok van Zieks, Cosney Megundal, Beppo, Oscar Fairplay, Adam Ladyfirst, four of the jurors (Juror #2 has the Justine Courtney voice and Juror #4 doesn't speak), and British versions of the Judge, Komaeda, and Larry voices[[/note]]

** In the third episode of ''VideoGame/{{Omori}}'' [[spoiler:he realizes that Mari is Sunny's flesh-and-blood sister, and she died from an accident on the stairs, hence why Sunny is afraid of them.]]

** In the first episode of ''VisualNovel/NewDanganRonpaV3'', he made a prediction that [[spoiler:the entire cast was given FakeMemories (in which that was one of the endgame twists of that game)]]. He also manages to correctly guess arguably the game's [[MetaTwist most shocking twist]] (that [[spoiler:[[PlayerCharacter Kaede Akamatsu]] set up a trap to kill Rantaro]]) mere ''minutes'' after [[spoiler:finding the body]] in Case 1, before the investigation had even begun, something only one other known [=LPer=] guessed correctly. [[spoiler:[[SubvertedTrope Except that]] Kaede [[FrameUp was actually innocent]] and [[MiscarriageOfJustice falsely executed]], especially since [[GenreSavvy Nico]] thought the reveal was "obvious" to him. [[ZigZaggedTrope Although]], it's possibly a DoubleSubversion since in Chapter 6's investigation, Nico rightfully suspects that the events mentioned above had happened due to Shuichi's reactions]].

* One for ''VisualNovel/NewDanganRonpaV3'', it manages to get '''[[WeirdnessCensor Nico]]''' to leave his room mid-recording. How? By showing [[spoiler:Kokichi's newest NightmareFace]] in Chapter 4, stating that it was even worse than [[spoiler:the other [[NightmareFace Nightmare Faces]] combined]].

* In the Talent Development Plan mode of ''VisualNovel/NewDanganRonpaV3'', Nico somehow managed to get a U card on his second attempt, while the success rate was '''0.5%''', or '''''ONE IN TWO HUNDRED'''''.

** In ''VideoGame/13SentinelsAegisRim'', simply by checking the Mystery Files, [[spoiler:he realizes that the main cast are dreaming of their past [[AlternateSelves versions]], and that Iori Fuyusaka is a younger version of Chihiro Morimura despite them existing in the same time period.]]

* Nico's experience with [[MetalSlime Amazey]] [[VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor Dayzees]]. First, Nico gets two encounters with them in a row on his second and third Dayzee groups. Secondly, the first fight ends with Merlee's spell activating, giving Nico a whopping ''98'' Star Points from the battle.

* Nico's experience with [[MetalSlime Amazey]] [[VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor Dayzees]]. First, Nico gets two encounters with them in a row on his second and third Dayzee groups. Secondly, the first fight ends with Merlee's spell activating, giving Nico a whopping ''98'' Star Points from the battle. It resulted in him going up ''two levels''.

Secondly, the first fight ends with Merlee's spell activating, giving Nico a whopping ''98'' Star Points from the battle.

* He also managed to beat the notoriously difficult VideoGame/OriAndTheBlindForest with 98% completion in one sitting.

** Before Apollo Justice, his best voice was probably [[{{VideoGame/Persona}} Igor.]] Many comments on this first video in the Persona 4 Golden let's play talk about how mistook Nico for Igor at least once. Unlike Kristoph, he didn't take Igor as seriously, but if he did, it would be almost impossible to tell the difference between Igor and Nico's voice.

** After having a very hard time against each of the Data fights in III, especially Saix, he managed to defeat Xigbar, Marluxia, Larxene, and Young Xehanort all in one video.

* Managing to beat the [[ThatOneLevel infamous]] turret segment in VideoGame/DeadSpace on his first attempt... and with only one cannon.

* Spending five minutes on the ThatOneBoss for ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts'' will show you these boss fights: Riku!Ansem, Ursula, the Ruler Of The Sky, Zack, Rinzler, Anti Black Coat Nightmare, Ansem: Seeker of Darkness (Phase 1), and Young Xehanort. What do these all have in common? He plays this series blind (at least, he claims), he plays on the highest difficulty, and he beats all of them in one try. Some significant features of note:

* In the seventh video of his VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII LP, Nico unveils Mean Dino version 4.0. Initially, he was one rounded block short, but he manages to find a bunch in the ninth video, allowing him to complete Mean Dino in terms of shape.

** Adding to the list of [[spoiler:bad guys Nico was able to predict before TheReveal]], Nico was correct in [[spoiler:stating that [[KillAndReplace "Tomas"]] came back to the academy evil]] in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses''.
