I enjoyed this episode but I felt like it dragged significantly at points. In particular, the sequences where Elsie is just watching Keima play could have easily been half as long or less and still gotten the point across. I don't know how much content is out there in the manga but after 2 filler episodes, 3 episodes for Kanon and Shiori and finally this I felt like they really tried to stretch this season's content out in order to fit it into 12 episodes and leave stuff for season 2. Don't get me wrong, I'll take this over the reverse situation (*cough* Angel Beats *cough*) but I just felt like the show could stand to move faster.
All that said, it was quite an entertaining episode. I loved all the console parody names (anybody wanna play some Y-Box 360 or CreamCast?). The line "The top left and bottom right stories were very touching" was great as well. The ending song was hilarious and was a nice way to end the season on a suitably goofy note.
