Line 35:
* [[Large Ham]]: Just about everyone in the show. Ace and Dad are especially over the top, while Chet is somewhat more restrained by comparison.
** Fraser as Santa. And Dad's Dad.
* [[Long -Lost Uncle Aesop]]: Cousin Lester. He is a stereotypical "cool dude" who neither Ace nor Chet know of who appears and gets them both hooked on [[G -Rated Drug|Game Genie codes]], eventually conning them into paying for more with their precious NES games. "It's good getting ''high'' scores, huh?"
* [[Magical Negro]]: Subverted, as Doc Louis gives Ace worthless advice and apparently plans to steal his bike.
* [[Musical Episode]]: Several episodes are music videos to (sometimes remixed) tunes from the games themselves. One Christmas episode has the characters singing a rap about what presents they want.
Line 56:
* [[Schedule Slip]]: The show is currently on hiatus, as Ace's actor went to school, but the creators insist they will make more episodes in the future.
* [[Shown Their Work]]: A ton of Ace and Chet's dialogue is quoted directly from the games' instruction manuals and packaging.
* [[Spin -Off]]: ''[[Video Games Awesome (Web Video)|Video Games Awesome]]''. An out-of-character riff show with the guys playing modern (and rarely, retro) games.
* [[Stealth Parody]]: Some people watching this show don't realize that it's making fun of the video game-related shows of the 80s and early 90s; the episodes are actually as little about the actual product as possible (for example, the episode about the Game Genie became a parody of anti-drug PSAs).
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: Ace, Chet and whoever sets foot in their basement.
Line 65:
* [[The Unfavorite]]: Dad obviously [[Parental Favoritism|prefers Chet]] over Ace, though Ace doesn't seem to notice.
* [[Very Special Episode]]: Parodied in an episode about the cheating device Game Genie where Ace and Chet, which also parodied Nintendo's staunch opposition to the device. Remember: "No game is complete, when you cheat!"
* [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's Not Awesome?]]: Everything Ace and Chet review. Sure, Nintendo games are great and all, but they take it to a whole new level...
