Berenstain Bears - Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN) - Summary

Summary

The Angry Video Game Nerd reviews two Berenstain Bears games: Extreme Sports on Game Boy Color and The Berenstain Bears' Camping Adventure on Sega Genesis. He criticizes the games for their poor graphics, sound, and gameplay.

However, the review takes a strange turn when the Nerd experiences a glitch that causes him to interact with a version of himself from a different timeline. This alternate Nerd explains that the Berenstain Bears' spelling controversy (Berenstein vs. Berenstain) is due to people unknowingly crossing over into different universes, where the spelling differs.

The alternate Nerd reveals that he is one of the rare individuals who can hop between dimensions and that he has been trying to find his way back to his native universe. However, he explains that when two of the same person coexist in the same universe, it creates a paradox that must be resolved by the death of one of them.

In the end, the alternate Nerd reveals that he is from a universe where the Berenstain Bears are actually called the Bloodstain Bears, and he is pursued by entities that seek to restore balance to the multiverse.
