Can someone translate the challenges for each game he does in the Retro Game Challenge video.

Edit: Was his challenge to beat each of the games?

I'm going by what I saw and I think these were the challenges. I'm still watching it when I posted this, but I will update the post as I keep watching unless someone who either knows Japanese well enough to translate them and/or already watched it posts a list.

1) Warp to and complete stage 64 (the final stage) in Cosmic Gate
2) Find the hidden Arino head/king in Haggleman 1
3) Complete the first race in Rally King without taking damage
4) Get the 1.5 million (I guess the 150 thing is how they say 1.5 million in Japan?) point bonus in Area 4 of Star Prince
5) Finish the last three in-game challenges of Rally King SP for Abe (who seems to suck at the game)
6) Doing some weird trick regarding going through the exit of each stage with a few seconds left in Haggleman 2 (I have no idea what this one does)
7) Find and defeat the hidden Demon Arino boss in Guadia Quest (with underleveled characters)
8) Complete the third/final stage in Haggleman 3

This was exactly what I was looking for in my post. RandomStranger may have misunderstood my post as I meant to say "Retro Game Challenge". I love both the GCCX DS games, but rarly play the first game as the second game has more fun and more content. The only thing I really go back to play alot in the first game is Haggleman 1+2.

Also, I am still looking for anyone with a copy of the Japanese Strategy Guide for both GCCX DS games. I would love to see scans for the book. But I especially need the Wiz Man Guide translated so I can finish my Wiz Man FAQ on GameFaqs. There is also an awesome Japanese Wiki for both DS games in the link below.

To ZariGani:
Would you translate the Wizman section of the mentioned wiki for me. The only section I really need translated is the section for the gold magical rods and the section on teleporting forward and backward in the levels. Google translate is terrible on this page.

GCCX DS game Wiki:
http://www29.atwiki.jp/ds_gamecenter_cx/pages/1.html

I think this link would be useful to those playing the DS games. Would you post it in the OP.

Okay, but my translation will be iffy in some parts because I haven't played too much of Wiz-Man, therefore I don't have a firm grasp on the context.

Floor Skip
- Take the crystals that sometimes light up, 4 in row, to warp to the next floor
- If you die after warping, you'll be returned to the previous floor
- You can do this on the final floor (32) but you'll be returned to the previous floor, even after defeating the final boss


Magical Rod:
- 3 rods can be obtained per stage
- Its attribute is light, and it can defeat enemies of any attribute
* However, white enemies (white wisp, white dragon, white knight [skeleton], white wizard) will require more than one hit
- Upon picking one up, the rods of fire and ice will disappear
- Even if you fulfill the next challenge while the magical rod is dropped, you can't get it (?)
- If you make a mistake while your magical rod is out, you must do the same challenge repeatedly (some floors, like 5 and 13, will not enable you to repeat the challenge so be careful)
- When you clear a stage, the number of magical rods you obtained will be counted toward your title
* Even if you lose one due to a mistake or magic attack, it will count
* When you Continue, the number of rods you obtained will be shown in the ending


Thanks! I was actually looking for locations of all 3 gold rods on some of the 32 levels. If you get a chance to do it, I would be gratful. I will also credit you in my FAQ.

I need the rod locations for levels 9-20, 23-28, 30, and 32.

I just bought the Irem Arcade Hits Colllection from DotEmu for the PC. All the games are great Arcade Classics from the 80's and 90's. The game on the collection I am most wanting to play is Ninja Spirit from season 14. I will watch the raw of the episode where he plays the PC Engine version. I hope that watching Arino will help me play through the game as I heard it is difficult game. Wish me luck.

Arino has faced many difficult challenges in the past, and impaled himself on a great many spike traps. What if the entire game was made of spike traps? Here we will find out in Quest of Ki!!

Zari-gani once again proves shes an android or something and provides the translation, while I once again prove how utterly sexy (in a rugged way) I am by timing it.

I loved this episode when I first heard about the show! I've been waiting for a sub of this episode. This is one of my top 5 challenges. I can't wait for part 2. I wonder if you guys can show and translate 1.5-2 hours of the end of the Quest of Ki Live special. The part I am refering to is the end of stage 98 and the rest of the game.

I just watched the last 2 hours of the Quest of Ki Live Special in order to fully end the challenge. Watching him finally beating stage 98 was a relief. I was glad that the last 2 stages were not as difficult as 98. I hope to watch all 7+ hours of stage 98 one day.

Other episodes in my near-future queue: Masked Ninja Hanamaru, Kid Dracula (those two combined with Wagan Land will form the Deceivingly Harmless-Looking Trilogy) Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures, JJ and Jeff, Takeshi's Castle (featuring the Family Fun Fitness!), The Licensed Game Fest (a.k.a. The Korea Trip aftermath). Also, the 2-hour long live Takeshi's Challenge challenge (apologies in advance to whoever has to time it).

Glad to see more of whats to come. Glad to see Ninja Hanamaru (Yo Noid) from Capcom. Arino's record with Capcom games is an interesting one. Wagan Land will be fun as well as I want to see more of the 1st AD Takahashi. Arino and Takahashi working together on Yellow Devil in Megaman 1 was a favorite moment of mine. Can't wait to see these.

The amount of games I've seen that make you defeat all the friggen bosses again before fighting the final boss can all choke on dicks. Wow, so many do this.

However Arino doesn't seem to complain of them yet. What a chill dude :3:

Have you watched the Megaman episodes. He always forgets about the boss gauntlent in the Wily stages and dreads going through them all the time.

No new episode this Thursday for GCCX. Episode #132, Battletoads Part 2, will have to wait another 2 weeks. The show will have a New Years Special on Dec 31. Google tranlation seems to say that it will be a 2011 recap episode. This is from the Japanese GCCX Homepage.

New live special coming up! February 24: Arino's "Last Challenge of the 30s" (he turns 40 the next day).

I've been lucky the last couple of shows when I found a livestream, so start getting your hopes up nnnnow, especially because it starts at 6 pm there and goes to 2 AM if I'm reading that right, which is... not convenient for my fellow North Americans (1 AM PT the same day).

That's it for now. Dunno what the game(s) will be. (I wouldn't expect Battletoads because Part 2 of that will have aired already)

Were you able to catch the 10min New Years Special this morning. Any news from the show other than the live special.

There's two bonus challenges this time: City Connection and Genpei Tōma Den 2 (aka Samurai Ghost).

I'm glad that every megaman challenge has been on DVD. Arino playing the megaman games have been fun too watch. Hope to see Megaman 1 and 4 subbed soon. I hope 1 is subbed soon so that all the episodes with the female AD Takahashi will be subbed soon. Can't wait for Arino to play Megaman 5.

Also is there a good raw for the Director's Cut for Street Fighter II.

Does anyone remember the episode where Arino beats the game before lunch time? Some side-scrolling action game, the episode hasn't been translated yet.

Random Stranger posted:

Ninja Spirit. Episode 112.

I thought his quickest challenge was Hi No Tori(6 Hours. I didn't know Ninja Spirit was done in about 2+ hours. But he played the game in PC Engine Mode. I don't have the Turbo Grafix version, but the Arcade version for PC from the Irem Arcade Collection. The Arcade version is much harder. You only get 1 hit per life. The PC Engine version gives you 5 hits per life.

Arino's a fan of the Resident Evil series. I wouldn't mind seeing him play RE2, or some RE5 co-op between him and a former AD.

I love it when Arino plays Capcom games. He has a mixed record when it comes to capcom games. Megaman challenges are tough for him and is always wondering when he will play the next sequel. The Ghosts N Goblins games are always going to get a bad reaction from Arino. And Yo Noid gave him a little trouble. Final Fight gave him so much trouble and Street Fighter 2 is not his type of game. Street Fighter 2010 was a hard as nails platformer, even though I have not seen this episode yet. Finally, the quiz game by Capcom provided a good challenge. I can't wait for the next Capcom game the make him play, especially when he plays another magaman game.
