Will the Arino-esque character be replaced by a Conan-esque character?

Bless your soul for that Troll 2 reference. That corner piece of cake with the eye staring blankly is a bit unsettling, imo :P

The next game has a female protagonist. Something unusual about the Super C episode: they didn't show the cartridge during the intro, and it wasn't a prize at the end. I'll check when I rewatch it (I'm not very attentive at 5 AM), but I can't recall seeing the game at all.

Mister Chief posted:Has that ever stopped them before? I think I remember Super Spy Hunter being expensive as well, and seeing as cartridge only goes for about 40,000 yen, and a CIB copy goes for 218,780 yen (230,000 for an unopened copy), I think that was it. They still gave it away though, IIRC. Collectors in Japan who watch the show sometimes moan on Twitter about how a game appearing drives up it's price.

TeaJay posted:So I'm guessing Arino aced Super C? Did he use the 30 lives code? Just to play with Inoue and reminisce on when they played the first one eleven years ago. Also, it seems Inoue chose his career over continuing his family's liquor store, which closed in 2013. He also was recently promoted to being a group leader at Gas Coin. Regarding the cartridge issues, they're clearly playing with one, it just wasn't featured in the intro or given away as a prize.

March 6th is Matsui's birthday, but he doesn't have his own public Twitter account. Send some love to https://twitter.com/gccx_official. Or don't, I'm not your dad. Do as you please.

I tried Märchen Maze on my PCE Duo and boy, does it get hard fast. Second level was all kinds of pandemonium and you fight the boss on a conveyor belt going in all directions. There is a stage select when you continue, though.

I just hope the new subbed episode comes out sooner than later, made even this account because of that. It's been awhile from the last ep. Keep up the good work.

Random Stranger posted:Super C is easier than original flavor Contra, but it's still no cakewalk. However, there is a thirty lives code in the Famicom version and a stage select so my guess is after letting him have some initial struggles, they take mercy on him. First by letting him just stage select, and then if he's really pressing for time they'll let him use the thirty lives code. That'll make it a ten hour clear. Can someone explain what the gimmick was with the rainbow in the episode? TeaJay posted:I tried Märchen Maze on my PCE Duo and boy, does it get hard fast. Second level was all kinds of pandemonium and you fight the boss on a conveyor belt going in all directions. There is a stage select when you continue, though. I was playing a translated version of the game, which appeared to have an Alice in Wonderland tie in. I'll assume that they won't have the rights to reference Alice in Wonderland too much during the show.

Lewis' book is very much in the public domain, and even the original Disney animated movie is in Japan because it's a pre-1953 film (you can get non-Disney sketchy-looking rough transfer DVD's of it for 500 yen, or $5ish, 100% legally, carried in regular stores).
