Bocc Kob posted:Next time Tecmo sports game? Yep. There's a lot of interesting options there. I'm not certain at all what could be up for this one since there are so many to choose from. I'm going with Captain Tsubasa though since the game had a pretty big following in Japan. Edit: Hey, Kan's doing a bit of cross promotion:

My guess is Tecmo Wrestling since we've already seen it. I hope it's not another golf game.

Alright so, I've devoted a large chunk of my life this week to shotgunning basically every translated episode of this show. I'd heard of and watched a couple episodes of GCCX every now and then for a year or two now, but this week was the only time I've actually sat down and really watched the show. First off, I would like to give a very hearty thank you to the SA Team for translating this wonderful show, and for bringing it to our shores, and I'm definitely going to be keeping an eye on this thread for all future developments/translations...

That right there is why I had a Bo Jackson poster in my room as a child, despite never having watched a football game before.

SirLarr posted:Next Tuesday (May 29), I got a 2-hour time slot on our Machinima livestream to do a RETRO GAME CHALLENGE (da daaa~). I'll be sure to watch. Right now I'm in negotiations to run a similar event live at a retro anime/gaming convention, under similar time constraints. (Audience participation will be likely, though I'll try to root out any dangerous kids.) The game is secret at the moment, but should be fairly feasible for a two-hour slot. Also, no waxings, as the dude I'm going to shanghai would probably like it too much. I also recently reviewed Retro Game Challenge on my Youtube channel, trying to do it justice by including an Arino-style introduction, slow-zoom-in insert shot, whiteboard full of bad drawings, cooling pad with stuff written on it, the whole spiel. Kinda felt dirty biting the whole schtick, I'm not gonna lie. Fun, but dirty.

Corridor posted:Oh man I hope you're doing a GCCX manga with Kibe. What, really? I thought the artist did a fantastic job at capturing the staff's likeness while still retaining their style. In fact it was one of my inspirations when drawing the King Arino picture and had this in my reference folder. Considering how many manga artists are incapable of giving their characters different faces, it could've been a lot worse.

That other one was great, but it was hard to tell who everyone was.

Probably Inoue or Urakawa. I'm unaware of when the manga was made so that might tip it off.

Yeah, the hoodie is Inoue. I went ahead and reuploaded the comic anyway. No idea who originally translated it, but credit to whoever they are! GCCXcomix.zip - 11.6 Mb

Yeah it's Inoue. Squinty eyes + broad/square jawline = Inoue, pretty much in every single artist's interpretation I've seen of him. They're his two most defining facial features. Urakawa has a thinner face with a pointier jaw, non-squinty eyes, and either shorter hair or the long permed hair + goatee combo. He also has a huge amount of space between his nose and his mouth. I find that Inoue drawing immediately recognizable. I probably just study faces too much. For example I'm always amazed by Nakayama's super-arched eyebrows, and Male Takahashi's Beavis-like 3/4 view profile.

I'm so used to see Inoue with facial hair, it's weird to see him clean-shaven, especially in a drawing. I was even looking for his block-like head to tip me off, but I wasn't sure from that angle.

I was even looking for his block-like head to tip me off, but I wasn't sure from that angle. He's definitely gone through a metamorphosis throughout the years. I drew him with a very short haircut and facial hair for the poster (which I think makes him harder to recognize -- fortunately I think he has a very distinct profile which I tried my best to depict) but I actually think his longer hair + clean-shaven look is more iconic, I guess 'cause that's what he looked like in his debut. Urakawa's gone through the most looks but I gave him the long permed hair + goatee combo because no one else in the staff has looked like that.

There's also the other illustrator who does the caricatures for the Gas Coin staff. (Too bad they take down people's profiles when they leave because he had some good ones of Nakayama et al)

His caricatures are great, too. And I've always been extremely impressed by this fanart that used to be in the OP. Whoever drew it did an amazing job with so few features. Katayama and Male Takahashi especially are spot-on. This was also in my reference folder. (Sorry folks, this is not a new release post) Also posting the Nakayama one Ray mentioned.

zari-gani posted:Urakawa's gone through the most looks Yeah, I swear he changes his style every single season. Every time he appears on the show after he wraps up his time as AD there's about two minutes where I'm saying "Who is that..." If I'm lucky they actually flash his name on the screen but he appears in the background or in big groups of the staff all the time.

Was he using that as his Twitter icon for a while? I know Inoko MAX uses his caricature from that artist for Twitter and that Nakayama one looks familiar (and adorable).

Re-reading that comic, I noticed this in Kibe's description:quote:Surprisingly, he is a heavy drinker. Maybe I stand a chance if we hit the sauce hard and I get on about my Sega collection. "Say Kibe-kun, did you know I own an SC-3000, six Master Systems and a Game Gear?  "Okay, that was a bit creepy. My apologies.

And yeah, Urakawa has some crazyass fashion sense going on sometimes. I think the last thing I watched had him looking like a 70s pimp.

Obeast posted:Actually, Wikipedia says there were Japanese versions of both games (although the article for Tecmo Super Bowl doesn't show Famicom, but still lists the Japanese release date under NES I was just in my local retro game shop the other day (Game Over, ATX), making a terrible purchase spurred on by childhood memories against all that is good and holy and logical (an Atari 5200), and I believe I saw TSB in their Famicom section. I know TB was, and I THINK TSB was next to it in the case. e: gently caress, I should ask them if they're going to carry the GCCX DVD when it comes out---they already have a gaming-related DVD rack.

A few questions: - Assuming I was going to write fanmail to Arino, should I bother finding someone to translate it into Japanese or should I just send it in English and hope for someone to be able to read it? - On that note, what's the address for GCCX?

Lizard Wizard posted:A few questions: Having it translated into Japanese would be more convenient for Arino but there are people at the show who know English (Kan definitely, Kibe probably, about half of the AD's). I know there's an official drop for fan mail through Fuji TV but the only address I can find immediately is the Gascoin offices (where they shoot the challenges). A letter sent to Arino Shinya c/o Gascoin would definitely reach him. That address is: 東京都港区芝4-9-3 芝石井ビル7F or Shibaishii Building, 7F 4-9-3 Shiba, Minato-ku, Tokyo-to, Japan Edit: Also, as I crawl through this episode I keep repeating to myself, "There's only one more. There's only one more." That's not much comfort, thought. Random Stranger fucked around with this message at 23:09 on May 27, 2012 |

We stream through YouTube, and the URL for the live stream automatically becomes the VOD after the stream is done. I'll post it in this thread once it happens. I'll see what I can do about crappy dry erase drawings. I think the only snag is that in my setup, there's no AD to pop in and give hints. We're soliciting help from our audience, so hopefully they will make doodles with MSPaint or something.
