Line 89:
* [[April Fools' Day]]: He's done something on April Fools' Day every year since starting as the HVGN, one of only two occasions (the other, of course, being Halloween) for which this is the case:
** 2008: He posted [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBlotxX0qOQ&feature=channel_video_title an audio-only vlog] ripping into the AVGN (originally titled "Sick to death of hearing about the Angry Nintendo Nerd") that was actually a parody of the infamous Armake21 vlog ripping into the [[Irate Gamer]].
** 2009: The obligatory "[[Know When to Fold'Em|Goodbye Forever]]" video, in which [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSeVpXHEArE&feature=channel_video_title he announces his new rapping career]. His band Starship Amazing even made an actual rap EP, [https://web.archive.org/web/20110712014634/http://music.starshipamazing.com/album/thatz-a-rap which can be found here].
** 2010: He switched shows with the Gaming Historian, another Retroware personality. Derek talked about ''[[Shenmue]]'', while Norman reviewed ''[[Ristar]]''. This is also the only April Fools prank to date in which Derek does ''not'' break character, [[Leaning on the Fourth Wall|at least not explicitly]].
** 2011: His friend and bandmate Calvin hijacked his show, and did an improvised quasi-review/playthrough of ''[[Chrono Trigger]]''.
