The first challenge of season 18 will be Dragon Child Fighter (竜の子ファイター), a Turbo Grafix 16 game by Tonkin House, who also made Full Speed Delivery Boy.

I only watched a couple seconds and I'm already tired of that giant-rear end blue bar at the bottom of the screen.

Oh man I've played the translated part 2 on SFC but never had the drive to finish it. Can't wait to watch the first one! Thanks guys!

I have a question about the Famicom Detective Club episode. For the Tama Ge segment, it says that the narrator is Yuko Takeda. I thought she was still on maternity leave until season 17. Correct me if I am wrong.

That was another great episode, SAGCCX! :) But, one very spoilery question... Was this the first detective game Arino didn't correctly or mostly correctly predict the ending to (at least in terms of episodes that have been translated thus far)?

Thanks for the release! That was a drat good mystery, I think the best "Detective Arino" after Hokkaido serial murders.

That was a pretty quick turnaround for what is probably a pretty text heavy episode (I haven't seen it yet). Good work team, and thanks as always!

I totally goofed. I copy-pasted the "narrator" line (there are certain stock lines that appear in the show often that I keep in a Notepad file) and I forgot to change it. Sorry for the confusion.

While "Ricolaaaaaaaa" is a loving brilliant localization, I was still pretty stumped over whatever Kinmugi is.

For everyone else who's curious but had no idea what it was, I think it's, like, a beer or something.

Yes. If you're confused because it seems "off" for a beer commercial, Japan doesn't have the law stating that you can't show people consuming alcohol in TV commercials.

I believe there is a similar FCC law in the US. You always see actors holding drinks and putting down drinks that have been sipped, but you never actually see people drinking.

We know you've been waiting almost an entire day for the next episode, and for that we'll never forgive ourselves, but you can punish us later.



The art will tell you everything you need to know about Metro-Cross Part 1, provided by the inimitable (I've tried) zari-gani, translated by kakaricho, timed by Random Stranger, proofed by Hirayuki.

154 - Metro Cross Part 1 (Mega, 605 megs)

Note the file is larger than the other recent episodes (although still smaller than our old style encodes) because a side-scrolling game where the point is to never stop running updates the screen more aggressively than an 8-bit visual novel.

Hope you put the correct narrator's name this time.

FWIW, I like Metrocross. It's a fun little game. Okay, that skateboard line obviously isn't intended and shouldn't work but otherwise it's amusing.

I feel like a bad GCCX fan for asking this but is Metro Cross Season 16 or Season 17? The last Season 16 episode I have is the second part of Yoshi's Island (#153) and the first Season 17 episode I have is Jogging Race (#158).

Thanks for your hard work as always. It's hard to come up with any original words of gratitude after this many episodes but this show always brightens up my day and I'm glad that you all still have the time and energy to keep at it even after so long.

They're Season 16, right after Yoshi's Island but before Space Hunter which is the last episode of the season.

E:

Unless you also include the Nintendo Channel episodes, Balloon Fight was between Yoshi's Island and Metro-Cross and Fire Emblem between Metro-Cross and Space Hunter AFAIK.


E2:

Oh hey, you're also missing the first Season 17 episode (Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse), Jogging Race is the second one for S17.

This was another amazing episode (especially with Abe and the rest of the staff heckling Arino and moaning about him getting stuck on I think round 15). Thank you guys again, and I can't wait to see what else you have in store for us... :)

It's Metro Cross Part 2 tomorrow (at least I assume it's tomorrow since you gave us two episodes in two days), isn't it?

Some pictures of the 333 gifts they'll start giving away at the end of April. It's all 15 trading cards in a frame for 10 fans, individually numbered t-shirt for 77 fans, and key rings for 150 fans. Also, signed copies (Arino and staff) of the GGCX movie script for 30 fans, and having your name added to the end roll of the movie credits for 66 fans.
