I think we might get a new sub before the month is over.
>Dragon Ninja (Bad Dudes)Mediocre pick, it's just Famicom jank, and not the good kind. They should pick some jank with some charm like Two Crude Dudes.
>>12329170I'm not sure what's worse, your abuse of the word 'jank' or your ignorance of what was challenged.
>>12329170The show is for japanese audiences in case you didn't know
>>12329217yes, and for them retro is dominated by the FC, and to a lesser degree sufami.
>>12329016I'm so glad this shitty meme is finally over.
Arino's Live Challenge Seven-Game Revenge at Makuhari Messe (Extended Special Edition) subs when?Also watch Märchen Maze.https://nyaa.si/view/2057499https://nyaa.si/view/2059329
>>12329494>finally over
Was there ever a raw released for Monster Hunter?
>>12329656Oh the DVD just released. You really want to rush out and pirate it? For shame. Arino needs to eat too you know? What about Kibe? Or Abe? Without DVD sales he'll have to go back to being a motorcycle delinquint. What will his children think? Or how about poor little Orphan Ogawa? DVD sales are the only thing keeping her from living a life of debauchery.
>>12329675Trust me if I could feasibly purchase it in the US without it costing me an arm and a leg in fuck-ass shipping fees I would have already done it
>>12329517based
>>12329517Cringe
Cuddling with Ogawa
>>12330549Meant for the post above this one
>>12329675>>12329676Wait for people to stop buying it in Japan, then piracy is fine.
>>12329656I'm curious on how it's formatted and how long it'd take. Comparing standard first run times to his times, it looks like it takes him twice the average to beat these games. For instance, it took Arino like 16 hours to beat MGS, and Monster Hunter is longer. 3 hour episode taking 25 hours?
>>12331903Monster Hunter is a DVD challenge so it doesn't have to follow the rules of a normal challenge.If anything they could have him take the game home and grind for mats on his own time.
>>12329016I'd never heard of Märchen Maze and god, it just seems so mean. I hope no actual little girls picked it up hoping for a fun Alice in Wonderland adventure
>>12331917The PC Engine version is extremely lenient compared to the original Arcade game which was specifically designed to grind your balls into guacamole. Case in point, look at how the final level is designed.https://youtu.be/TXk_rpM3Dss?si=tuyLPF9F9-PyKkxA&t=1417Even worse.There's a time limit in the arcade version too.
>>12331917PCE also has another Alice in wonderland game too.
>>12329072Cool which ep?
>>12333060Unknown, maybe the hourlong documentary about the 15th anniversary show or maybe something else unrelated.
>>12333141That would piss off a lot of people because the documentaries are just abbreviated spoilers.And they do care because in the notes for Marchen Maze, they even noted it has spoilers for the season by saying how many wins and loses Arino had for the season.
>>12333227For now to avoid getting burnt out, current subbers have said they wouldn't do 3hr shows, just the 1hr docs.
>>12333475It's still a terrible 'compromise' It's better to just skip it for now until they feel they can do the full program.
The documentary is a nice supplement material, but it's fucking retarded to think it can replace the live show itself.
>>12331964That looks insanely stressful, all that precariously rushed damage boosting through bullshit enemy density.
>>12334193Purikura Daisakusen is the spiritual successor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UC8gLSJs9As
>>12333678The documentaries are literally main numbered episodes you retard. They aren’t “supplementary”Source:https://otn.fujitv.co.jp/gamecenter/oa/bn272.htmlhttps://otn.fujitv.co.jp/gamecenter/oa/bn372.html
>>12329016>Season 29: Episode 17 (#413) "Saburou" premieres on Thursday, February 12th.Probably a Detective Saburou Jinguuji game I guess.
>>12335105If they're doing them in order it's probably "Yokohama-kō Renzoku Satsujin Jiken". There's about 9 of these games in the retro era, and you'd think they'd be halfway through them by 2026 right? Instead they only did the first game in 2012.
>>12335105Saburou is a proper given name, so unless it's some strange curve ball, it has to be a Tantei Jingūji Saburō game since no other game series has that name in the title.
The show will be around for at least 4 more years. With 22 episodes, that means minimum of 88 episodes.
>>12335946Not counting specials, they do 20 each year these days. Unless they do something weird like decide to have an extra long season when they're about to reach #500 and then call it quits.
>>12335950As long as the show is profitable and Arino Shinya is alive, they'll keep going. The DVD sales and the live performances must make millions USD a year. They always have packed shows. Why not keep it up? The show is a variety show filmed in a tiny meeting room in FUJITV's office building. It's not an expensive show to make.
>>12335105They're due for another detective game. 380 was Sadakichi Seven: Hideyoshi no Ougon back in 2024. That game is a hoot, as it is a detective adventure game at its core, but contains a lot of elements of parody of detective games. I had to re-wind to ensure that I wasn't mishearing some of the narration of the game.
>>12335960I wonder how the show would change if kibe died.
>>12335105There's a lot of detective games for the Famicom and PCE, so it'll take them ages to get to the ones on the Saturn and PlayStation. It's a shame, since they have superior art.
>>12334972They're numbered, but they don't replace the actual challenge. Why would you watch a 'making of' and not the actual thing you retard?
>>12336107Charisma black holes take eons to dissipate.
in proxy GCCX news, Inoko MAX has been cleaning up his youtube page, last updated 2 days ago.https://www.youtube.com/@inokomaxHe also has his own company as a freelance director.https://inokomax.com/
>>12329016pc engine has another alice game as well.
>>12329016>>Season 29: Episode 16 (#412) Dragon Ninja (Bad Dudes) {Famicom / NES} premieres on Thursday, January 22nd.That game is complete ass. Meme image aside.
They seem to be in an agreement with Jaleco to do one game per season, and they're periodically tackling Natsume games. This is good because they're both great developers making solid games. I hope they do Kiki Kaikai and Ikari no Yōsai soon.
>>12340657Maybe they haven't done Rocky and Pocky because Arino's thumb would be worn down to the bone given they never got him a controller with a turbo function for the super famicom
>>12340858At his age, rapid tapping for hours is more likely to strain his forearm tendons.
>>12338189>>12336107In terms of who is necessary to keep the show running and what happens if they leave>Series instantly endsArino>Will see a dip in quality Kan>Might see a little dip in qualityAbe, Kibe, Fujimoto
>>12342721>kibe dies>show improves
>>12342721I don't know what would happen at this point if Ogawa left, but viewership would probably drop.
>>12329383What's exactly the point?
>Check /v/>Saw this>>>/v/731693351Someone's mad about Marchen Maze being subbed. Definitely this normalfag>>12216196>>12216286
>>12345247The point of that post or of Famicom prominence?
>>12346438What's exactly the point?
>>12340583The image is from Märchen Maze.
>>12347675No, this image. It was super popular as a meme image in the early 00s internet, including /v/. The screen is much more popular than the game itself.
>>12347771
>>12347774
>>12340657I love games from those devs, especially 16-bit era. Always a good time.
>>12340858>>12341684They "solved" the light gun games by using the saturn or playstation MOUSE. lol.
>>12347771Really gives away what he is because he didn't know about the Bad Dudes meme.
>>12329016Watched the Dragon Ninja episode. The game is 5/10 as a choice. not horrifically terrible, but a meh game. The game is jank and jank can have charm but it's not that charming. We have gotten spoiled last few years with good choices. Hope the next ep is a detective game, since those are functionally retro movie-games.
sex with ogawa
I wish Japan didn't have such an obsession over boring ass Dragon Quest, and they could ahve played more interesting RPGs instead. Like the dungeon crawlers, or more interesting combat styles.Sword of Vermillion is about 12-15 hours long, so it's not a huge insane grind, has real time combat, first person dungeon crawling, and side-scrolling combat. It's very ambitious.
Wishlist for 2026?>Ogawa focused mini-corner>more PCE and PCE-CD games>more Saturn games>More 3D games>more PS2 games >more dreamcast games>more Gamecube games
>>12350307Why would he?

>>12350949They followed it up with a live stream.
>>12350779A Wii challenge.
>>12350949Awesome thanks
2026: YEAR OF THE 3DO!
damn I haven't watched this for like 15 yearsI don't even remember what episodes I watched because they were translating it so randomly, I think I will start from season 15, I remember the cardigan guy and the next ad but I think when I was watching it most episodes from those seasons weren't translated yet
>>12351236Japan actually liked the 3DO, so it's strange the show has mostly ignored it.
>>12350307>OP has marchen maze>bad dude guy mentions meme image but doesn't post it at first>marchen maze meme images spammed for several years and episodes subbed recentlySounds like you're now part of a double misunderstanding.
>>12351224>>12351320They had damn well better get around to a proper 3DO challenge before they lift the Wii ban.
>>12352465My guess is if they do a 3DO game, it's gonna be a Japan only FMV or Quiz game. Or Gex?
>>12352483Both Nishimura Kyoutarou Mystery and Yamamura Misa Suspense series have a game on the 3DO each. But to get to them, they have to play the FC and PCE-CD games in their respective series FIRST.
>>12352491I should probably bite the bullet and just start using the Japanese game wikis, since Mobygames is often quite incomplete. Previously they only listed the FC, PCE, and 3DO games from the series, but have since added additional FC titles I hadn't heard of before. There's probably dozens of mystery games that aren't listed here.
>>12351328>>12350818>Not knowing your classic internet and blaming everyone elseSociety is doomed
>>12352819it was big on /b/ in the 00s. I would imagine anyone on /v/ is at least 30 years old.
>>12352819He directly said marchen maze, thus he didn't know.

gex when
let's brainstorm some sports games. 1. They must not use actual teams. 2. Be good. 3. Beatable within a few hours. 4. Not cause nausea
>>12357223>Oh no, a photo I took at 3 a.m. with a cheap phone just to show a figurine isn't exactly exceptional quality.
>>12357006I got her and blue for 35 euros on vintedonly down side was one of her hand joint that broke in 2 minutes, good thing I had some plamo joints around
Watching season 15, it's from 2011, why are the episodes in 360p?
>>12358230Oh, Apologies. The series is a shit show for formatting and quality as the people initially just focused on small file sizes to get them out there. So many old episodes are some 360p .avi abomination, like it came from 2006 or something.
