abraxas posted:This lamp, even though being from Japan, is being sent from China and on the page it specifically says it's made for 220V. Kind of weird if the voltage in Japan is actually 100V. Why would a lamp made in/for Japan have a Japanese plug but only work with 220V.  This is why I couldn't charge my DS in China.  Appliances from other nations can be a risky venture, even if they appear to be working normally. Most stuff with adapters like game consoles and computers should be okay, but stuff without tends to blow out a bit quicker. I had a space heater from Japan that only lasted about a year plugged into an American outlet before it blew out... I figure the increased wear and tear was from the increased voltage.Edit: Poster above me sounds like he knows more about electronics, I'm sure a lamp will be fine.

zari-gani, (or anyone planning on watching the live challenge for that matter) is there any chance we could get the fax number for the live challenge while it is going on? I'm sure some of us here would like to send Arino some faxes of encouragement from abroad, even if we can't directly see the action.

zari-gani posted:I think I'd rather play the Fester's Shock Machine.  On that note, it's really a shame they didn't have footage of Arino playing pinball in the USA special. During the trip I was kind of considering tweeting a picture of Funhouse or Dracula to Inoko MAX and Kibe saying "FIND AND PLAY ONE OF THESE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD", as though it would have some sort of effect.  The best we have is when he played the Mario Brothers pin on the North Trip series(?). Mario Brothers is one of the worst tables I have ever played extensively. It's so bad that my local arcade can't find a buyer for it so they keep it in for shits and giggles.

I wonder who chooses all the music for the show? That was just a small clip of "The Go! Team" when they were introducing Hamaguchi. Whoever it is has some good taste, what with the Aquabats and others played before. Also wonderful how Arino pointed to Watanabe and Tani, saying that's was where Kan was in the picture.

Super hyped for the Go by Train! episode. I remember really enjoying it when I watched it raw a few years ago, especially the crew's competition for the boxed meals towards the end of the episode.

I was going to post a giant  wall of text about this, but I'll just sum up my thoughts instead. It's unfortunate that Arino makes those jabs toward Watanabe, but considering they spend so much time together as coworkers (over a period of years, no less), I don't think it's truly a toxic thing they have going on. As was the case with Inoko MAX, Arino's already been introduced and is pretty familiar with the ADs before they even appear on screen. We're only seeing a sliver of the interaction, and I'm sure most people, staff included, would think it's inappropriate if Arino just started ripping on her constantly from day one. If anything, most of the mundane (or even pleasant) interaction between Arino and Watanabe is probably edited out, so we're only left with fat jokes. It's partially the editors' faults for going for the cheapest "laughs per minute" value and not "fleshing out" Watanabe as a person apart from the low jokes.The "politics of fat bashing" aside, I'm of the camp that it should mostly be taken at face value, though. Hopefully Arino isn't such a mean dude when he's not in "joke making" mode, but we can only really speculate.

Random Stranger, is Railfan pretty playable for someone with only passable Japanese? Also I can't tell from the descriptions if it has an arcade-style mode like Densha de Go does... I'm thinking about importing the game if it's not too laid back and sandbox-y. I figure if anybody would know it'd be you.

Son Ryo posted:Like many, many games in the SNES and NES period, MM2 was made much easier when it was brought to America. The American hard mode is the Japanese normal mode. While we're nominating thread titles appearently, I really loved this one from the live steam event: Game Center CX - Extensive Planning, Immediate Failure (but the title is fine as it is maybe?)

zari-gani posted:Well, lemme do a quick translation and you tell me what you think:  Also, what's with these huge (as in the number of members) pop groups? I understand you're trying to catch as much of a market share with different "types" of girls or whatnot, but after a certain number of members it seems like you'd reach a rate of diminishing returns. The whole pop idol thing is kind of terrifying and fascinating, and I say that as a pretty big Perfume fan. Thanks for all the great translations, as usual; it's pretty crazy to think where the show has gone in regards to the English fanbase the last year or so.

zari-gani posted:I started playing Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer to prepare for the translation... This game is really brutal. If I recall, they kind of cheated the system by giving Arino a leveled sword after the first episode. It's only fair that he loses it. I only wish that a rice baby could've turned it into a riceball for him. A rotten riceball.

Corridor posted:gold-fused sword got rusted and  I think the fact that the game had so many rear end in a top hat roguelike elements actually made it more fun for me. I've yet to see any way in which someone has really broken the game. The randomly generated items just don't give you enough leeway, and there's always the chance something really unfortunate could happen to you and your powerleveled super-sword. The most memorable Shiren death I've had: a wonderful run only to have a rice baby turn my jar full of eight riceballs into one riceball. I starved to death. The irony is what makes it most memorable. I've had my fair share of bad beats like anyone who's played through Shiren.

Random Stranger posted:IIRC it was Yoshio Sakamoto who hated eggplant enough that it became an in company joke. You'll note that he worked on both Wrecking Crew and Kid Icarus. I seem to remember seeing somewhere that Takahashi Meijin (a.k.a Master Higgins, 16-shot) hates eggplants, and that found its way into Adventure Island as a power-down item. Different company, I know, but eggplants seem to be this strange recurring thing in NES-era games. Maybe just tons of dudes don't like eggplants. v v

Congrats, zari-gani! I'd say it's more than deserved for all of the awesome things you've done for both Anglophone and Japanese GCCX fans!  (Timers, other translators, and Ray, you lot are awesome too, of course.)

zari-gani posted:This. Plus watching him be so bad at the game and seemingly not understand its system frustrated them. I've seen a couple fans say the episode isn't as bad if you've never played the game before. Rather than a challenge, it would've been better suited for a season long segment (complete with death totals  )

Substandard posted:I've been getting back into GCCX after several years. Will plex handle this torrent naming convention or do I manually have to rename every episode? My current stuff is all in an uncategorized "other videos" folder. I had to rename all of mine at some point with the S##E## format, but you might want to try messing around with different databases (in the Plex settings) before getting to that point. For what it’s worth, using TVDB (the default for Plex), you’ll want the folder to be called “GameCenter CX” not “Game Center CX”. That tripped me up for a good while.

fenix down posted:Can you give a specific filename example? I wouldn't mind getting this going also. To use the most recent release as an example, {Plex Directory}/TV/GameCenter CX/Season 26/Game Center CX - S26E01 - 337 - Mega Man 5 (Part 1).mkv Near as I can tell, it can be named whatever so long as it’s inside the correct directories and contains the string “S26E01”.
