Unable to secure funding from traditional investors, James Rolfe decided to independently raise money for the film using donations from his fans through both PayPal and the fundraising website IndieGoGo. Though he had initially hoped to raise $75,000 this way, Rolfe managed to raise over $325,000 for the film's budget. Because the project was entirely fan supported, Rolfe was allowed complete creative control over the film.

Doug Walker filmed his cameo for the movie when James Rolfe paid his friend a visit en route home from Los Angeles, and Rolfe in turn made a cameo in Walker's films Kickassia (2010), Suburban Knights (2011), and To Boldly Flee (2012).

James Rolfe, who has been shooting movies since childhood, considers this to be his 428th film.

Although Mike Matei was instrumental in developing the Angry Video Game Nerd character, he had very little involvement with the film. His cameo along with Kyle Justin in the landfill were shot in front of a green screen in their Philadelphia hometown.

Final film project of Justin Carmical a.k.a. JewWario. There was an improvised scene featuring him (without his Wario hat, due to copyright reasons) and other video game reviewers, but it was reduced to him and other reviewers reacting hysterically to The Nerd's videos. Carmical committed suicide six months before the film's release.
