The project started when Pavel was shown an WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd episode, and, inspired by how easy it was (or so it seemed) to create interesting content, got an idea to create a series of documentaries about how it was to be a child during TheNineties in UsefulNotes/TheNewRussia called "The nineties as we remember them," but ultimately decided against covering a broad range of topics, and concentrated on the true emblem of the nineties: The UsefulNotes/{{Dendy}}, a clone of the UsefulNotes/NintendoEntertainmentSystem that was incredibly popular in Russia, and all other former [[UsefulNotes/SovietRussiaUkraineAndSoOn Soviet]] countries back then. Not wanting to invite too much comparison with the Nerd from the get go, Pavel chose to make a feature-length documentary instead of a series. The documentary, titled "The Curse of the Grey Elephant" (a reference to Dendy's mascot) was released on Website/YouTube in mid-2011 and received much acclaim, prompting Pavel to make, as a sequel of sorts, a cycle of reviews and retrospectives called "Dendy Chronicles," for which Maksim joined him as a technician, cameraman and the character "arm-man."
