That was awesome.


I just added season 17 (empty for now, since all we know is that episode 1 is going to be a Disney game). Also uploaded my matching coverart image for it. I actually created coverarts up through season 20. I figured why not be optimistic about it.

Just checked it out. Nice Job! Where did you get all the air dates for the regular episodes?

Info you should add. Air day is Thursdays. Also, link to the official page at FujiTV.

It's completely true. Keep in mind that the J-Pop band AKB48 sung the Sugar Rush theme so they're probably banking on that to attract attention.



It's a little silly, but if this is what it takes to get asses in theater seats, then "Sugar Rush," it is.

thetvdb is a lot like a wiki on the back end. A lot of the edits come from all over the place. I've just been adding to what was already there. Half the time when I go to add in a new episode, someone else already has added it. I've been tidying up some of the episode titles, especially in the "Specials" as well as just whipping up some simple coverart for all the seasons. One day when I'm really (REALLY) bored I'll go through and make episode thumbnails for as many as I can. I think there's only episode thumbs for the first couple seasons.

Movie titles are my litmus test to find out how much the localization team gave a poo poo about what they were doing, especially when the title employs a play on words of some kind or some kind of reference to an expression or other things; a good translation can bring new layers and perspective and, when it's done well, leaves me feeling like I had a richer overall experience. It's a similar kick to watching a movie with a good commentary in some cases. I try to watch translations I can understand as much as possible, especially if the movie/TV Show/Video game is originally in a language I don't understand, since different translations can have different perspectives on particular things (or it can clue you in that one of the translations is based off the other and a weaker 2nd+ generation translation). Japan is really big on referencing Japanese media as much as possible; Napoleon Dynamite was called "Bus Otoko" to capitalize on the recent popularity of "Densha Otoko" at the time, earlier in this thread (or maybe the previous one, it was a while ago) we had a conversation about "My Neighbor Seinfeld".

Totally unrelated to Japan, but I remember reading that every Mel Brooks film is renamed as "Springtime for [x]" in Sweden as a reference to "Springtime for Hitler", the translation of the Swedish title for "The Producers". Always found that kinda odd.

For the longest time, it seemed like every french version of an action or thriller film would be called "Dangerous Games" "Deadly Game" "Forbidden Passion" "Forbidden Game" "Dangerous Passion" etc. I swear the people doing the translation would just slap a variation of that title onto anything, regardless of the movie's content.

This doesn't have anything to do with GCCX but I've always wanted to make a game where I name all the spells after foreign titles for The Young and The Restless.

I've never been in a fight before, yet why do I always think I can probably take everyone else down.
I am a huge fan of GCCX and absolutely fell in love with the arcade visit segments, particularly the music.
I went out of my way to get the music theme from Hiwou War Chronicles and decided to edit it down to under 30 seconds for my phone's ring tone.
Since I know none of you live in the same town as I do, there is no risk of bumping into someone with the same ring.

If Fuji TV thinks it can get more viewers (and maybe more revenue-none of us know how they are compensated) with streaming as opposed to DVDs, and they may be right considering their audience, then it sounds good to me. I hope they offer the full product, extra segments and all!

Kibe can't keep up the lies, this is all him attempting to pave the way for streamed live challenges so he doesn't have to say twitter every time.

(This is not a serious post)

For real though it's probably just gonna be the DVD eps that are already on smaller VOD services showing up on a more mainstream one, or more than one. Unfortunately, those are the dubbed versions, so hopefully they'll at least include both as an option where possible.

I still think it's going to apply the same as the DVDs where we won't have the extra segments.

It's pretty embarrassing how hostile this thread has been lately to anyone who acts anything other then gushingly positive about everything GCCX. It's almost as difficult to read as the drive-by :goonsay: nitpicking that crops up every now and then about the DVD and/or localization "issues".

It can, but until we see evidence that it will I think calling people wanting it to do so "ungrateful slobs" is unfair. But I guess instead of trying to make some noise and draw attention to the fact that English speaking fans worldwide want to be able to support the show, we should just be quiet and "be happy that anything at all in the US is moving forward."

Perhaps my original post should have read "so something like future official localisations for the series being VoD-only basically kills it for everyone who isn't lucky enough to be :911:"

He's saying that if Retro Game Master was to go VOD-only it'd cause problems for people who can't access [VOD service X] in their country, which is true, but there's been no suggestion whatsoever that this is gonna happen so I don't see why people are so worried.

Agreed. I prefer DVD over all but I would rather see it on Netflix than Crunchyroll for one reason: Crunchyroll is niche, Netflix is mainstream. The more people I introduce GameCenter CX to, the more people love it. I'm guessing most of us would like the show to be available to the widest possible audience and that would be to have it pop up on every Netflix streaming dashboard.

GCCX is a series about love but it makes some people in this thread absolutely bitter.

I'm all for any kind of western releases for GCCX and if I can watch the series legitly and show my appreciation by pushing money in FujiTV way, all the better. For VOD services, there are always ways to get around stupid regional barriers in a legit manner so Netflix et al release would not be the end of the world.

But please allow discussion about GCCX without gushing positivity too. Asshats can be ignored and I haven't seen a single one on this thread (although the bitterness borders on such).

edit:

bpc908 posted:

The point is, a lot of people can. Which is better for the series' western releases anywhere if it gathers enough views on such VOD services.
