About the episode:

Well, a chance is given, as the Nerd seeks out the help of a sensei master. Q-tips will drop, thumbs will slice - it's AVGN: Ninja Gaiden!

About the game:
Ninja Gaiden was developed by Tecmo, who also developed the Tecmo Bowl and Rygar series. It was one of the first two games, alongside Tecmo Bowl, to be released by the company for the NES. The game was originally released in Japan in 1988, under the title "Ninja Ryukenden", which literally translates to "Legend of The Dragon Sword".
