* The thirty-minute finale of his ''[[Super Mario Galaxy|Super Luigi Galaxy]]'' LP has of November 12 2010 surpassed one million views (two million as of December 28, 2010), his third video with that many views (''Super Mario Sunshine'' Episode 1 and ''Pikmin'' Episode 8 are the other LP videos to surpass 1 million... although there are actually several videos in his Super Mario Sunshine LP to surpass 1 million)
** His Majora's Mask playthrough of all the boss fights using the Fierce Deity Mask has gotten over one million views ''in only a month''. 
* Also from the ''Super Luigi Galaxy'' LP, [[That One Level|defeating Daredevil Bouldergeist]] on the first try.
* Completing one of the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBPMWUGpdHk hardest levels] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' in only two attempts.
* Finding a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlF_RxM-_D4 Shiny Koffing] in ''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver|Pokémon Crystal]]''.
* The finale of his Mother 3 LP, which includes voice acting for the characters.
** Hell, the ''entire'' M3 LP, mostly due to having [[No Export for You|being released in America]], and also because you can ''hear'' him crying during [[Tear Jerker|Chapter 6]].
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TC7qWo73kA Chuggaa chewing out his fans] for acting immature and raising hell about an artwork of Kumatora. It takes guts to tell off people on Youtube, especially your own fans, deserving it as much as they were.
* The first time Chuggaa realized [[Pikmin|Steve]]'s full potential was very cool after the time Steve spent being the [[Butt Monkey]].
{{quote|'''Chuggaa:''' Oh my god...Steve, you're a freakin' trooper! You were staying there, sacrificing your life, into the hours of the night...to carry back...a rotten corpse of a fire-breathing pig. I'll admit, I'm tearing up a little bit right now guys.}}
** Steve even gets his own Facebook page.
* Chuggaa manages a 101 Power Bounce combo in Paper Mario, the highest possible combo before the game cuts you off.
* He, [[Proton Jon]], and [[Nintendo Capri Sun]] have created a collaborative LP channel called [[The Runaway Guys]].
* Chuggaaconroy getting a [[Shout-Out]] from Charles Martinet, ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFka56e7fvk Mario's voice actor!]''
* Chugga has captured 5 legendaries (Zapdos, Suicune, Ho-Oh, Regice and Registeel)...with Poké Balls.
** Also, he caught Regirock with a Premier Ball (same as a Poké Ball, but fancier), he caught Groudon with {{spoiler|A NEST BALL}}, and Kyogre with a {{spoiler|Net Ball}}.
*** And then he does it '''again''' with Latias in  {{spoiler|ANOTHER NEST BALL. [[Up to Eleven|At FULL HEALTH.]] }}
*** To those of you who don't understand why catching Latias and Groudon in {{spoiler|Nest Balls}} is a reason to celebrate (and for Chuggaconroy's voice to go as high as it did): What exactly are the chances of it happening? ''Less than 1%''. 
* The [[Sequential Boss|back-to-back battles]] with [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Grodus and Bowser]]. For starters, his [[Cursed with Awesome|curse]] took effect after he beat Grodus and ''doubled'' the Star Points he got from the battle, putting his earnings right up there at 60+ (which is at least half a level for those of you not in the know). Then in the Bowser and Kammy fight, the curse struck again when he used a [[Death of a Thousand Cuts|Power Bounce]] against Bowser, raising his attack power and pretty much demolishing Bowser's HP. On top of that, he risked not using a healing item when he had one HP left since he had spare Life Shrooms. Bowser's next attack ''missed him anyway''. As he noted, if the curse took effect again and doubled his SP from THAT battle, it would've been the perfect run for him.
* He has stated how he [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?|hates Wollywogs]] from Pikmin. However, in his LP of Pikmin 2, he ''kills every single one he finds without any Pikmin dying'' (at least so far, with the exception being in the Bulblax Kingdom where he was unaware of the Wollywog until it attacked). Every fight with a Wollywog has been a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] - especially the one where the Wollywog ''seemed'' to land on his Pikmin, but just barely missed. This streak was broken in Episode 25, but it's still awesome he made it that far.
* In his Pikmin 2 LP: In the Submerged castle, twice, his Pikmin managed to avoid near death. Once (episode 26), a blue tripped in front of the Waterwraith. However, it wasn't killed. Chuggaa's reaction was enough to rival his original reaction to Steve. The second time (Episode 27), he was cornered against a wall. The Waterwraith was approaching. Then, the Waterwraith turns around, not killing any Pikmin. This then repeated again, in the same spot.
* Chugga defeating Man-At-Legs (basically a Arachnorb ''with a'' '''''machine gun'''''), while only losing ''4 purples''. ''Without'' using a Purple Spray.
** That he defeated the Man-at-Legs rematch in the Hole of Heroes, using only blue Pikmin, without using a Purple Spray, and without losing a SINGLE Pikmin... further CMOA.
* Finding not one, not two, but ''three'' purple potions at once after breaking open three eggs. Even better because he'd been talking about wanting to find purple potions for almost the entire thing.
* [[Memetic Mutation|S]][[Memetic Badass|t]][[Creator Backlash|e]][[Never Live It Down|v]][[Pikmin|e]] makes one more appearance after the final battle, carrying Louie back to the ship.
* After suffering from [[Creator Backlash]] for so long regarding [[Pikmin|Steve]], Chugga finally lets loose in ''Majora's Mask''.
{{quote|'''Chuggaa''': 'Troop', huh...Okay, fine! STEVE! There you go! Happy? I said it. It stopped being funny after the Pikmin 1 Let's Play, okay...okay, anyway...}}
* A real life one, the story of how Chuggaa got to live in his new house, which he tells in Episode 10 of the [[Majoras Mask]] LP. {{spoiler|He got it by having his [[YouTube]] username coming up on Youtube search before [[Memetic Badass|Chuck]] [[Chuck Norris|Norris]]. }}
* In Episode 14 of [[Majoras Mask]], almost a minute in, Chugga rolled all the way to the entrance of Snowhead Temple '''''in one freaking attempt'''''.
** And in Episode 19, he did it again with the ''Goron race''!
* During an episode of the Great Bay Temple, Chugga brings up how everybody seemed to hate Navi from Ocarina of Time. He then follows this up by defending Navi, ''big time,'' explaining why Link would actually want to find her. Doubles as a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]].
* Normally in [[Majoras Mask]], just putting the Giant's Mask on and [[Curb Stomp Battle|curbstomping]] Twinmold's ass is cool. However, before (and during) the battle with Twinmold, Chugga is giving his theory of how Majora's Mask resembles the stages of Link's maturity and growing up <ref> really small as a Deku and not being able to do much, a little bigger as Link but the world still being gigantic, more powerful as Darmani and the world not seeming as big, and being in a relationship as Mikau with the world seeming even smaller</ref>. This builds up to him reaching 'the last stage' and becoming a giant. The dramatic buildup and ensuing [[Curb Stomp Battle]] (in his favour!) turns this into an awesome moment.
* ''Finally'' completing the Clock Town Archery game...''in only two tries''.
{{quote|YEAH! SECOND TRY! PERFECT! SUCK IT! SUCK IT! IF THERE WAS A TEABAG FUNCTION IN THIS GAME, I WOULD USE IT RIGHT NOW, SUCK IT! YEAH! It only took 20 of my Rupees net-wise! GIMME MY FRICKIN' PIECE OF HEART, I'M OUTTA HERE, SCREW YOU, GOOD DAY SIR! [[Crowning Moment of Funny|I'M WILLY WONKA!]]}}
* He not only defeated the boss of Majora's Mask easily without using masks (the first time around), he got some Crowning Moments of Funny in there as well. And when he does it again using the Fierce Deity mask, he makes Majora look like a joke. How's that for [[Nightmare Retardant]]?
* His explanation of how Wurmple evolution is, in fact, random. Loads of [[Shown Their Work]] right there.
* When Brawly's Makuhita has Chuggaa up aganist a wall with all but one Pokémon ( {{spoiler|Slavinator the Zigzagoon}}) defeated, he sends it out, not expecting much. The poison left behind by ACOOLTENT (Tentacool) does the enemy in, giving that Pokémon the victory by not even doing anything.  {{spoiler|Slavinator grew ''four levels'' as a result of all the experience he gained}}! Doubles as a [[Funny Moment]]. Chugga claims it as his greatest battle ever.
* ACOOLTENT gets hit by an electric attack and survives ''with only one HP left''.
* TEDDY + Strength = [[One Hit KO]]. ''Almost every time.'' And now that it's a Slaking with Hyper Beam...
* Chugga sends out Moegami in the Verdanturf battle tent. He's unable to use items to heal, his defense is lowered twice, he's under Wrap, and he's confused AND attracted... but he manages to take out his enemy with one hit from Double Kick.
* His [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VyDE6XsJbU#t=8m30s battle] with [[That One Boss|Winona]]. ''Every single Pokémon on Chugga's team'' pitches in to claim an impressive victory. (Except Moegami.) Heck, his Absol lands the final blow of the fight. The Absol he caught ''only one episode beforehand''. Already cementing its place in the roster.
* Pandora, his Absol that is mentioned in the above entry, destroyed the first 2 Elite Four members. It took out all but 1 Pokemon of the first member, and all the Pokemon of the second one. [[Curb Stomp Battle|Without taking damage.]] And then he manages to dole out an epic [[Take That]] to all to people who were telling him Pandora didn't have a place on his team.
* The epic battle with Steven at the end.
* His first level up in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' is to use [[Playing with Fire|Fire Burst]] on a whole bunch of [[The Goomba|Squiglets]].
** Then a similar instance in Chapter 3, where he uses [[Shock and Awe|a lightning bolt]] to blast a bunch of Blomebas.
* Every time he clears a chapter of ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', he lets loose a [[Most Wonderful Sound|rapturous shout]] of "YOU'VE GOT A PURE HEART!" in the same vein as "[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|YOU'VE GOT A CRYSTAL STAR!]]", from three years prior. It just feels right.
* Upon finally fighting [[Bonus Boss|Shadoo]] after clearing ''Super'''s Pit of 100 Trials, he beats him while only getting hit once. Doubles as a [[Crowning Moment of Funny]], because he won due to Shadoo [[Epic Fail|''walking into Bowser's fire breath.'']] [[Artificial Stupidity|'''Constantly.''']]
* Back when he did a let's play of ''[[Okamiden]]'', it was hard to record gameplay directly from a DS due to how primitive capture technology was at the time. So what did he do? [https://web.archive.org/web/20200525235350/https://twitter.com/chuggaaconroy/status/233324469924536320 He created his own capture device, of course!]
* In his ''[[Pokémon Colosseum]]'' playthrough, Chuggaa decided to use [[Overshadowed by Awesome|Misdreavus]], [[Tier-Induced Scrappy|a statistically weak Pokémon]], on a whim with the intent of boxing her later. She ends up putting on a great show during the Pyrite Colosseum tournament because [[Artificial Stupidity|the AI kept using moves that wouldn't effect her ''on'' her.]] He ultimately stuck with her, and she proved to be a reliable teammate for the whole game despite the AI eventually wising up. What really makes it awesome is that he tends to be ''super'' judgemental towards Pokémon with lower stat totals and will tell viewers that they shouldn't use them at all, and yet she managed to meet his incredibly high standards and then some.
* An inversion of Misdreavus' awesome moment would be the AI managing to outfox him. Since Dakim's Shadow Entei is weak to Water type moves, he had his Quagsire Marshall use Surf, which would hit it hard enough to weaken it while keeping it alive due to Marshall's low Special Attack stat combined with Surf's damage being lowered if it hits multiple targets at once. What he didn't account for, however, would be that A: Dakim's Camerupt would outspeed him, and B: he would use Earthquake. Initially baffled since it hit Entei and failed to hurt Misdreavus at all, he came to a horrifying realization once it was Marshall's turn to attack: [[Artificial Brilliance|Dakim ''cheated him out of snagging his Entei'' by setting Entei up to faint once Surf hit it]]. He freaked out over it, but ended up giving Dakim credit where it was due since he was so surprisingly clever.
* While playing through ''[[Super Mario 64|Super Mario 64 DS]]'', Chuggaa created an interactive menu video, which was full of annotations that would take you to a specific part of his LP where he'd get the Power Star that you clicked on. Unfortunately, Youtube giving annotations the axe combined with them deleting old delisted videos means that this menu is no longer available (and even if it was, it wouldn't be functionable), but it was still an impressive feat of technological wizardry all the same.
* On Twitter, he's followed by the likes of [[Tara Strong]], ''[[John Cena]]'', and former president of Nintendo of America Reggie Fils-Aime himself! Not bad for a guy whose claim to fame is making in-depth video game walkthroughs.
* During his let's play of ''[[Mario and Luigi Partners In Time]]'', he takes a stand against [[Hate Dumb|those who mindlessly bash harmless localization changes]] by sticking up for how the brainwashed Hammer Bros spoke in [[L33t L1ng0]] in the English translation of the game. He brings up how nowadays stuff like this is met with cries of "We need to burn Treehouse in hot oil for putting memes in our game!", but at the time of the game's release it was considered genuinely funny even by the game's critics, and that the "L33T HAMM3R BROZ" were major [[Ensemble Darkhorse|Ensemble Darkhorses]] because of it. Not only that, but he goes on to talk about how the L33T SP3AK is actually a good way to translate the Hammer Bros' robotic Katakana-based speech patterns and shows that they're [[Brainwashed and Crazy|acting uncharacteristically weird]], while also pointing out that Japanese memes are often used in Japanese media and that jokey translations of games rarely come completely out of nowhere. That isn't to say that it's just mindless praise though, as he also mentions that there ''are'' times where "memey" translations end up being unfunny, forced, and out of place. All in all, he does a good job at showing where you can find solid middle ground with such a hotly-contested topic.
* Also in his ''Partners in Time'' lp, [https://web.archive.org/web/20220721011912/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lCrOgy8NUche ended up creating the ''very first'' comprehensive walkthrough for finding bean spots.] Is it niche? Admittedly, yes. But is it still awesome? Of course!
