Works for oranges, apples, tomatoes and avocados too. The more you put in the same bag, the quicker they all ripen. And it is possible it was a mistake, like the exciting five minutes Arino followed me. Kakaricho fucked around with this message at 07:58 on Jan 14, 2015 |

Thanks for the new episode. I really love how into it Kan was with his commentary. Kinda makes me want to see Arino play another old sports game some day.

Not actually Koshien (it's the Ishikawa prefecture finals), but this is what it looks like if you play like Arino in real life. Got a lot of headlines last summer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9acEorOQ-8EVamino posted:I think it was a fuji tv sports announcer, rather than Kan, who was doing the play-by-play and being very excitable.

Yeah, my main parting thought from this baseball episode is just a brightly burning hope that they one day get him on a copy of NBA Jam and/or NFL Blitz. I would imagine both saw a Japanese release?

I have a question. There seemed to be a joke about when Arino labeled his hat with GCCX where the G was centered and larger. Can anyone explain the joke for that?Obeast posted:I wanted to ask about this since it seems like every time Arino used the pitcher to pick up a ball after a successful hit or bunt, it never worked whereas the other fielders could pick it up just fine. Is/was this a bug/glitch in the game itself or some kind of real life rule in Japanese High School Baseball that Arino might've not known of? I've played a TON of NES baseball games in my day, including Little League Baseball (as well as RBI, Baseball Stars, Bad News, Major League), and I don't ever remember the CPU ever squeeze bunting (or just regular bunting for that matter) more than a few times. The CPU definitely liked to do the squeeze bunt more than anyone would imagine they should in video or real baseball. I also love that there's a special animation for diving waaaayyy outside for the bunt.

I'd like to think that the AI adapted a little bit to his sloppy fielding on the mound, but I highly doubt that's actually the case. Considering the game itself though I am pretty sure that the AI was just programmed to bunt more often and prioritize getting on base, since Japanese baseball revolves a little more around bunting and fielding; where as American baseball focuses more on good pitching and good RBI. Also with how cheaty the AI feels with those consistent home-runs I wouldn't be too surprised lol.

After that text overlay heavy sports game episode, Captain Tsubasa is up next, right?  A two-parter soccer "RPG" with a text adventure part in the middle!I like the game and the episodes but can't imagine the team is too enthusiastic to jump on two hours of this:  In any case thank you SA-GCCX team and keep up the good work!

Those two episodes are the ones I'm least likely to translate, mainly because: - They`re pretty dull. Takahashi and Arino playing soccer is the best part. - Not a soccer fan and not very familiar with the sport. I know baseball fairly well, so doing Koshien was fine, but research time alone for these episodes would take a few months, given the amount of time I have to translate. - Did I mention they're slow episodes, and there's a lot of better episodes?
