Random Stranger posted:Thanks to Game Center CX I have now discovered the greatest game ever made: I don't think I can fully express how hilarious this thing is. Like, it's probably an amazing toy and I'd have loved to have had one as a kid, but... you're projecting yourself into a tiny, little train and choo-chooing in circles around a lilliputian city! Edit: Oh, it's an arcade game, huh? I thought it was some kind of model train set you built. Time_pants fucked around with this message at 10:47 on Jan 22, 2013 |

I'm just catching up on my rather large backlog of GCCX and just watched the Balloon Fight Nintendo Channel episode. I'm a little taken back by how charming Iwata is, I don't know much about him but he comes across as very non-threatening, almost adorable. I also watched the Pokemon special and the SAGCCX version of the Steel Battalion episode. Both these episodes have plenty of interview content which I really enjoyed. I sort of wish there were more interviews in the later episodes of the show.

I'm a little taken back by how charming Iwata is, I don't know much about him but he comes across as very non-threatening, almost adorable. Funny you should mention those two things, because they kinda intersect: http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/ Iwata regularly conducts interviews with the developers of many of their first-party games (and the occasional third-party game); these interviews began with the launch of the Wii, but there's plenty of insight into the history of their older games, too.

It took about 4 or 5 pages to decipher but people already figured it out in the previous GCCX thread. Edit: The intro sound clip.

Iwata is extremely charismatic and clearly has a pretty good head on his shoulders. Whether he will be as good a leader as the Dark Lord Yamauchi remains to be seen. Still more fun to listen to than the heads of Sony or MS though, that's for sure (ironic, given that I could give a gently caress about the 3ds or Wii/U right now, but I do like Iwata more  )

Andorra posted:Didn't Spelunker just get released on DVD? I can't imagine they'd translate something so soon after it's released. Yep, it was released only a month ago. DVD-exclusive challenges are low priority, too -- unlike the TV broadcasts and Nintendo Channel stuff, the DVDs are something overseas fans can purchase to support the show so we try not to touch those, especially the newer releases. zari-gani fucked around with this message at 20:06 on Jan 24, 2013 |

Actually, I think they finally started getting a grip on it on season 11. But those first HD episodes drove me nuts:  I loved that he pointed out the ratty sections of the room. We've already seen how badly you guys keep the walls in seasons 9 and 10, Arino.

Though it does add to the super-low-budget charm. Cemetry Gator posted:It's both incredibly disturbing and yet incredibly alluring. That terrible shade of pink makes me think they didn't hire a make-up artist and just used something straight out of a female staff member's purse as an afterthought. zari-gani fucked around with this message at 02:41 on Jan 25, 2013 |

I just realized something: watch out for goons on the episode of GCCX airing tonight in Japan. They've got footage of the murder mystery event from last month that will be part of the show. I don't know if anyone got caught on camera but I'll be keeping an eye out during those segments.zari-gani posted:Maybe that's for the best. It's weird when they leave his acne completely untouched.

So, Arino died so they covered him in makeup and are Weekend at Bernies-ing all the episodes from now on? Stay on the lookout for an AD puppeteering him at the edge of the screen

Are you referring to Yoshi's Island part 2? I would love to see some footage of that.

I've seen talk on GnT and Suberanai Hanashi about comedians doing their own makeup(Yamasaki has a Hello Kitty makeup kit which is so totally a thing Yamasaki would have) so it makes me wonder if Arino caught a replay, didn't like what he saw and decided to glam it up. Regardless, there's no way it's a pro and it makes sense given that the show can't possibly have the budget for a makeup person for a show where maybe 3 people appear on-screen per show and only one for any significant amount of time

He's done this for some of the old Nintendo Channel challenges too. Even with the rather bad quality of the videos on Niconico, you could still tell he has makeup on.

Maybe Arino decided to go back to his rockstar days. Next stop: Game Center CX: The Band! Watch as Arino tries to master pop music. Hear him sing such great songs like "KACHO ON (STRAIGHT TO YOUR HEART)" and "愛の課長" and of course, the perennial favorite "女性ゲームオーバー." Will Tanii be able to produce a hit before he misses the last train? Will producer Kan be able to come up with awesome announcements? Will Kibe be able to write a song that cuts straight to our hearts? Will Inoko MAX learn to dance? Will Arino keep singing the same song for 14 hours because he can't get it right?

Bocc Kob posted:Did Arino join a visual kei band? That reminds me. Remember the band he was in when he was 17? Last year, Yoiko was on an episode of Ametalk about comedians that formed their duos in school. Arino and Hamaguchi were in the same band together. Hamaguchi brought up some old unused lyrics Arino wrote. He kept them for a long time, waiting for the right time to unleash them to the world -- "that time is now." Arino completely forgot about them until Hamaguchi brought them out but here they are. Translation:  From Bygone Days... by Shinya Arino, age 17 (Words in all caps were originally English) Real Japanese man DOWN Your eyes, are they for finding a shapely woman? Your mouth, is it for seducing that woman? Your body, is it for doing that woman you seduced? As long as she's got a hole, you're satisfied? Pure Japanese woman DOWN Your brain, does it only ever think about yourself? Your ears, are they for listening to some arrogant man? Your legs, are they for opening for a man like that? As long as he's got a stick, you're satisfied? Young people these days, are they nobility? Sponging off parents, buying foreign imports Surrounded by expensive junk The people of bygone days are crying Are you okay with that? Admiring foreign barbarians GIVE ME CHOCOLATE
