Back in time, Nintendo released the N64 console, taking control of the markets. The console was way ahead of its time, allowing itself to get enough recognition from the players.

Here’s what he said, “25 years ago, I played my last video game and I’m very indulgent. I lost a couple of weeks to a video game called Banjo-Kazooie,” Offerman said to audience cheers. “Two weeks went by and, you know, I was like, ‘Oh my god, the slow dopamine drip is so delicious.’ Then it’s over and you’re like, ‘Yes, I won!’ I’m like, ‘What have I done with my life?’ And so, I decided I’m never going to do that again. And so thankfully, because games have gotten so good, like The Last of Us, that I think I’d be in a basement and I wouldn’t even be going to audition for shows like this.”

Post that, the duo continued to talk about Nick’s life, including his role in various movies and series.
