It's the only explanation for his vast collection. Disappointed with his small video game library, he discovered a genie and wished for every video game ever made, the systems necessary to play them all, and a lot of beer. The genie granted his wish. In the process, the Nerd received so much shovelware that it was impossible for him to locate the games he truly wanted. Furthermore, the genie has trapped the Nerd in the expansive basement created to house his collection; the Nerd has no choice but to play the shitty games that suck ass. The Nerd has contemplated suicide to escape his situation, but the genie has also cursed him with almost total immortality. There is only one way for the Nerd to die, and he can't work up the courage to play Boogie just yet.
