I have a spoilery question: In the punch-out episode, when they are asking for ideas for episodes to do live, they mention that Arino didn't beat Quest of Ki on christmas and ask if he wants to try it again. I thought the whole point of the Bonk's Adventure recap was that he DID beat it on Christmas eve?

Wow holy poo poo I played this stupid game (Genji and Heike) once at a hotel in Scotland where they had PS1s you could borrow and they only game they had was this namco collection in Japanese, and I picked a random one and it was this garbage. I really never thought I'd see this game again, but at least I know what it is now! (I didn't even get to the first flat stage without turning it off I think)

Wiki explains it all: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tengu When I was a little kid when Mega Man 8 came out I had never heard of a Tengu and I was like "What?? They're just making up words now!"

zari-gani posted:The title of "A Waste of Color" is taken from the (awful) 1985 song (sung by a bunch of teenage girls) that plays in the background called "Don't Take Off My School Uniform" by Onyanko Club ("Kitty Club"). There's a famous little dance that goes with this song, and that's what he's mimicking. Thanks zarigani

I know this isn't the Japanese language thread but can I ask a couple of random Japanese questions since I think there are like at least 4 people in here that speak it? Is there a politeness or gender thing as far as pronouncing the word-final "u" of words? I noticed in Ring Ring Tactics the woman on the phone pronounced all the vowels of "desu" a lot, although mostly at the end of phrases. I don't think I've ever heard a man do that, so I was wondering if it was like a politeness thing or a feminine thing? I also noticed it when I was watching the Downtown newspaper batsu episode, that the woman (actress?) who played the secretary said "Ohayo gozaimasuuu" with a really long u at the end, which made me think it was some sort of formality/politeness thing.

Crotch Bat posted:I thought I'd make a crosspost about speedrunning since the game involved is very famous in the GCCX community, the game being Adventure Island. It was recently run in a speedrunning marathon(for charity) overseas in Europe and I saw it mentioned in the SA speedrunning thread so I thought some might be interested. So this isn't tool-assisted then, he's actually playing it?

FireCar posted:I heard you can easily make yourself understood to a Japanese person by saying the English word with a u on the end, saying it slowly, and saying it really loud. For example: Unless the word ends in an alveolar stop ("t" or "d") in which case the ending vowel is "o" I would assume that words that end in "n" would just stay ending in "n" since that's an allowable syllable-final consonant in Japanese, so it really weirds me out that sometimes it doesn't?

I didn't like how obviously staged Silent Library is compared to the other segments. Like, I guess their actual reactions are real but part of the laughs are supposed to come from the actual people around them like the librarians and studying kids who are obviously actors. I still do like downtown a lot though and enjoy all their other segments.

I loved Parappa. I never played it through so I didn't know funny the game itself was. I think one of my least favorite episodes recently was Layla. It was just kinda him stumbling through these identical levels, without any memorable moments really. My wife and I both fell asleep watching it.
