Hi, and welcome to the Nerdist walkthrough. The app features a lot of podcasts, news videos and shows. Unfortunately, there is 1 unobtainable achievement.
There are no Overheard@Nerdist to be found on the app, which is one of the required episodes. The other 15 achievements can be unlocked in about 25 hours, most of which will simply be letting your Xbox running. You do not need a subscription, a TV provider or any other than your Xbox + controller to unlock the 15 unlockable achievements in the app. You might have to switch the region on your console, before you can download this app. I changed my region to US. On to the achievements!
Upon launching the app, you will get your first achievement.
By using , scroll towards the "gaming section". Then select the first video. Before selecting "play", select "Add this episode to favorites".
Then select "play", wait for the advertisements to finish and then fast forward the video by using
.
Now watch another 9 gaming videos to unlock another achievement.
Now go back to the main menu. You will need some more specific episodes.
You will need to watch:
- 10 Pop Culture videos
- 10 Comedy videos
Keep in mind that you can fast forward the videos.
Note: Some videos will count towards multiple genres. Therefore, you might not have to watch 10 of each.
Now go back to the main menu, and use
to go to "Shows". Scroll towards "Nerdist News" and select "Play all". After 20 videos, both of these achievements will unlock.
This Just InThis just in: you're rad for watching 20 episodes of Nerdist News!
Now find the "All star celebrity bowling" show under shows. Again, select "play all" and either wait or fast forward until 15 videos have gone by.
Pin PalsWay to pick up that spare by watching 15 episodes of All Star Celebrity Bowling.
These two achievements should also have unlocked by now.
Super BurritoYou really seem to be enjoying that burrito, you watched 25 videos!
Now go to "podcasts" and start the first video. You will want to let your Xbox play podcasts for the remaining achievement. Podcasts are the longest videos, thus a minimal amount of advertisements will be shown. After 10 Podcast videos, the following will unlock.
Now keep playing podcast videos, for example snap the app while you play another game or let your Xbox run while you sleep. (I personally combined this app with Twitch. Start one app and snap the other and work towards achievements in 2 apps, while you are sleeping.) Be sure to turn your TV and controller off, to save some energy.
After Pi hours, or 3 hours and 14 minutes, achievement 1 will unlock.
PiDon’t be so irrational, you watched 3 hours and 14 minutes of video, but in truth it’s never-ending.
After 1337 minutes or 22 hours and 17 minutes, achievement 2 will unlock.
1337Whoa, you watched 1,337 minutes of content.
Now you may or may not have watched 100 videos yet. If not, simply start some short episodes and keep fast forwarding them.
Century CatYou watched 100 Nerdist videos, you are officially the coolest cat on the internet.
Congratulations! You've unlocked all unlockable achievements in Nerdist. Now hope for the developers to fix that last achievement some time.
