This game blows!

"This game blows!" is a recurring line delivered by Scott Wozniak that originated in A Look Back at the Nintendo 3DS. The game in this line refers to Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash, a game which Wozniak has criticized for multiple reasons.

The line is referenced in The Dark Age of Nintendo series, specifically in Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash | The Darkest Age of Nintendo. In this episode, Scott throws a stack of copies of Zip Lash into the toilet, exclaiming "This game blows!". The original clip and three other versions (with Scott just wearing different clothes) are also used. The line is also used as a plot point when it's shown that Wozniak actively flushes copies of Zip Lash down his toilet after saying "This game blows!" and throwing them in there. The ending of Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash | The Darker Age of Nintendo also features a reference to this line at its end, with a copy of Zip Lash shown floating in the toilet, alluding to the upcoming episode on the game.

Since its appearance in A Look Back at the Nintendo 3DS, the line has become an inside joke in the Scott The Woz fan community.

Original scene
In A Look Back at the Nintendo 3DS, after criticizing the Nintendo 3DS game Yoshi's New Island, Wozniak mentions another Nintendo 3DS title, Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash, was "cartridge-shaped garbage". This is followed by a scene of Wozniak next to a toilet with a copy of Zip Lash in his left hand. He exclaims "This game blows!" before throwing it into the toilet.

Other appearances
The same clip from A Look Back at the Nintendo 3DS is reused in other episodes of the series. Firstly, in The Rise and Fall and Rise of Amiibo. After Scott mentions that Nintendo had been pushing amiibo for games that "didn't live up to their legacy", he mentions that Zip Lash was a game that was heavily marketed with it's amiibo. This remark is followed by the clip.

The clip is also used in Death of a Franchise, where it is shown after Scott discusses the Chibi-Robo! franchise, mentioning that one of the two Chibi-Robo! 3DS titles released was Zip Lash.

Most recently, "This game blows!" was referenced in Borderline Forever, however, the line is not said and is instead just the action of Zip Lash being thrown into the toilet.
