Nipponophile posted:I did some poking around last night, but only found 640x360 30fps versions of the Battletoads episodes. I'll do some more digging over the weekend. The Japanese just don't put the care and attention into their TV stealing like we do.

Katana Gomai posted:Re: Live broadcast: When exactly is that going down and do you think they'd be excited to get a fax from Germany if I try really hard with what little knowledge of functional Japanese I have? Friday at 6PM Japan time. Adjust that for Germany... e: Oh, apparently they're doing a pre-show a few hours before? Keep in mind they're doing it because Arino is turning 40, so surely a lot of faxes will include birthday greetings. Random Stranger posted:I think they'll flip out if they get faxes from around the world. (to be fair, it was sent right after a look-at-the-faxes segment and was about Punch-Out because it was prepared before knowing they'd be doing Lemmings.)

Egregious posted:I'd actually like to see a segment where Arino plays one of the 3D Classics games on 3DS (even though we wouldn't see them in 3D, for better or worse). There haven't been many. I only have Excitebike but if you preorder Kid Icarus: Uprising you get a code for the 3D Classics NES game. He did. Excitebike and Xevious, as eShop/Nintendo Channel videos. I only have the TV commercials to show you easily though.

And hey look, Nakayama has a third facial expression! http://lockerz.com/s/186702193 Late thanks to freshverse. You guy(s) have my endorsement, doubly so if you do run for office. Late congrats to the foreign faxers who got featured. I was honestly a touch doubtful they'd acknowledge them, but was genuinely surprised! Late proper congrats to zari for being awesome, and specifically, out-self-referencing the show in one swift motion, holy heck rdbbb fucked around with this message at 01:40 on Feb 25, 2012 |

zari-gani posted:I like to keep my hobby life separate from my professional life so no. (I was hoping to stay anonymous here until the GCCX in USA thing came up and I decided I can't afford to lose out on the opportunity to draw something for them for the sake of anonymity.) I find it interesting that I'm never asked how I'm actually able to see the shows. They probably already know I'm (and all the other overseas fans are) watching them online. Ray, were you asked how you watch the show when they interviewed you? Nope. I talked with Ms. Ito from Bandai Namco there and she asked how I first saw the show, presuming it was YouTube, and I said yeah, but that wasn't on camera of course. I liked when people were thinking of sending messages to the staff saying they hate the Kotaku version and that the fansubs are better and that's why they love the show, as if that would endear us to them and they would fix everything and love us forever. I think they're fine just knowing there's foreign fans without knowing how the proverbial sausage is made.

Here's a Vita start screen I made based on the castle sprites that were posted here a little while ago. It's pretty simple/sparse/imperfect, but I think it gets the job done. I did include the throne & candleabras originally, but then you were peeling away all but the top of the throne, which looked weird.

Cemetry Gator posted:Next, a lot of segments make use of licensed music, which means they would have to negotiate the use of music for the DVD segments, and this can be tricky and expensive, especially for a foreign release of a cult TV show. I should say that even the Japanese DVDs replace the licensed music with generic stuff. And now's a good time for this... Cemetry Gator posted:Finally, the American company can only release what they are given. Fuji just isn't selling the unedited episodes, which means that in America, you just have to make due with what you got. ... to maybe finally be accepted. The quicker people do, the sooner we can get back to
