Callum Hudson-Odoi fired Forest into a sixth-minute lead with a lovely opener from range, but Nuno's side were soon undone by four Newcastle goals in the space of 11 first-half minutes.
Alexander Isak scored twice, with one from the penalty spot, along with the leveller from Lewis Miley and a close-range finish from Jacob Murphy during a chaotic turnaround.
Nikola Milenkovic pulled one back shortly after the hour before Ryan Yates' 90th-minute goal set up a grandstand finish, but Forest were unable to find an unlikely equaliser as they suffered a 4-3 reverse on Sunday.
"First half, clearly Newcastle better. The second half was better, but unfortunately not enough. Too bad, too soon," Nuno told Sky Sports.
"It's about trying to settle down, calm down and try to be ourselves. In the first half, I didn't recognise our team. In the second half, we were much better.

Forest became only the sixth side ever to go 1-0 up in a Premier League game but then trail by three or more goals at half-time.

Previously, WPRs only participated in parliamentary elections as they lacked state subject status.
Though it was a much-improved performance in the second half, Nuno's men have now lost their last three league away games, the first time they have endured such a run since December 2023.
"We made mistakes. Newcastle made mistakes also. But it was two totally different halves. We started well, we scored, and they just rolled over us," the Portuguese boss added.
"There was nothing else in the first half about us. Every time Newcastle had the ball, they scored."

— Opta Analyst (@OptaAnalyst) February 23, 2025Forest had five shots in the first half worth 0.25 expected goals (xG), compared to 2.92 for Newcastle, but they completely flipped the script after the break.
They had 12 attempts and scored with both shots on target as they accumulated 1.93 xG to Newcastle's 0.14, while stopping their opponents from having an effort on target.
Forest kept pushing for an equaliser up to the final second, and Nuno is convinced they would have scored again if they had more than the three additional minutes at St. James' Park.
"I wish there was 10 minutes added on. We needed that time," Nuno continued.
"We were on top; Newcastle were on the ropes. With 10 minutesluck9, I think we can get something from this game."
