!!Tropes used in his reviews:
* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation[[invoked]]: When he reviewed ''VideoGame/NinjaGaiden'' in Chrontendo episode 38, he said that Ryu Hayabusa is the worst ninja ever.
* BileFascination: When he arrived at the end of episode 29, he said that he was going to review what is considered to be the worst UsefulNotes/{{NES}} game ever the next episode.

* DesignatedHero[[invoked]]: He complains about the protagonist in this way in nearly every single video game he played so far. He even ended up praising the Japanese version of ''VideoGame/{{Karnov}}'' for giving the titular character a backstory and thus making him more sympathetic in Chrontendo episode 26.
* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff[[invoked]]: He lampshaded this in Chrontendo episode 36 when he reviewed the NES game ''Knight Rider'', which is based on a TV show in which David Hasselhoff is the lead actor. After expecting people to say that David Hasselhoff must have been really popular in Germany because he was an European record label he said that David Hasselhoff is just a smokescreen for popular stuff in Germany that was even worse, such as ''The Kelly Family'', who moved to Europe in the 70's and became popular in Germany, BENELUX, Switzerland etc. and sold there 20 million albums. At the end he even showed even a clip of a song that they sang.
* GrowingTheBeard[[invoked]]: He thinks that a few companies are this:
** Creator/{{Sunsoft}}. In the beginning of their lifespan, all of their output was crap. As time moved on, however, they slowly begun making some of the best games for the NES.
** TOSE also counts, albeit only because they are pretty good at making adventure games.
** He predicts that CBS Sony will become this, because after a few years they would be working on the UsefulNotes/PlayStation.
** He bashed Creator/{{Sega}} a lot for their early games before they made it big with Sonic.

* NoExportForYou[[invoked]]: He will usually note which games were only released Japan or only in the US.
* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: Whenever a game is made by AVP he will always mention that they once made a game called ''Ganzou Saijuki: Super Monkey Daibouken'', the worst game from 1983 - 1987 that he ever reviewed.
* TheProblemWithLicensedGames[[invoked]]: When he did his top 10 worst NES/Famicom games his #10 spot showed a game which he accused of causing the flood of bad licensed games based on Anime and Toys on the Famicom.

to:
** ''Donkey Kong 3'' was the first of such. He found it to look more like a 2D-shooter than an actual platformer when he reviewed it in Chrontendo episode 2.
** He found ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBrosTheLostLevels'' to be more of a ROM-hack than an actual sequel as of chrontendo episode 8.
** He also said about ''VideoGame/ZeldaIITheAdventureOfLink'' that he could not forgive Nintendo for making a generic action game with RPG elements in Chrontendo episode 14.
* SoBadItsGood[[invoked]]:
** The first Famicom adaptation of ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar'' in Chrontendo episode 10. He said that it is just mindless fun to punch people and look at how awful the graphics and sound effects are.
** The video game ''Sherlock Holmes: Hakushaku Reijou Yuukai Jiken'' is this too. He mentioned that in a lot of ways the game is ahead of its time due to the fact that you can kill pedestrians, go through cities in a non-linear fashion (even if you have to pay money for the privilege) and gamble but that the bad controls and that the aspect of running around looking for clues in random spots is just not at all appealing. He ended up calling it "an unplayable relic of its era". He reviewed that one in Chrontendo episode 14.
Added DiffLines:
* ValuesDissonance[[invoked]]: He noted one in Chrontendo episode 4 while reviewing ''VideoGame/TheTowerOfDruaga''. He said in that video that Japanese gamers are in general more patient than Western ones and seem to be OK with RPG's that use long and extensive level grinding in order to get some ultimate reward at the end.

* RefugeInAudacity: When he reviewed ''Animal Attack Gakauen'' in episode 27, he noted that a lot of Japanese video game programmers hide their bad programming skills by using wacky themes. Also taken UpToEleven in episode 46 when he reviewed ''VideoGame/MonsterParty'', as he said that the game was very incompetently programmed but that in the end it was so wacky that you could not help but loving it. In the end he tied it up with the NES adaptation of ''Film/{{Willow}}'' as the best game he played during the episode because of how creative and original ''VideoGame/MonsterParty'' was.

While the end makes sense on a psychological level, it undermines what Chrontendo is all about. Thankfully what he said in the ending never happened and chrontendo episode 40 still came along as usual.
