The car shmup is Battle Formula (Super Spy Hunter in the US). It's pretty fun but hard, especially during sections where you need to speed up to go over jumps or you automatically die.

I noticed something in one of the levels: Those missile launchers are the center of the bases in Bosconian.

I love how Tsuruoka has classical music accompanying his entry. It's like each AD has their trademark leitmotif.

That sample clip is way better than the dubbed Kotak episodes, definitely. The announcer sounds better, translation's drat good...but what did they do to the King?

I was listening to Talk Radar (Games Radar's podcast) and one of the guys mentioned GCCX at one point (it was episode 195 if you want to hear it). Didn't expect to hear it and it was pretty awesome. He pronounced Arino's name wrong though.

My favorite AD is probably Nakayama because of the sound effect. Runner up is Toujima because he was the first AD and one of the best.

Random Stranger posted:Also, why must they put this much text on an interface: The funny thing is, Densha De Go has an exclusive intro on the Playstation port (see it here) that shows a ton of trains that you don't even get to drive in the game. I think there's a Shinkansen part but there definitely is not a steam locomotive in the game (they made an entirely separate game called Kisha De Go for that). Most of the other ones are in Densha De Go 2 or Professional (which is a combination of the two with some other trains added in, I think it has the largest number of trains and routes out of the entire series)

Interesting tidbit: When the announcer is berating Arino for crushing the dreams of train fans everywhere, the music playing is actually a loop of a train jingle. I forgot which rail line it's from exactly but it's definitely in the Densha De Go series. This is easily my favorite episode by far. Thanks for subbing it, guys.

Silentman0 posted:I don't know why, but Go by Train is so much more interesting than it should be. No continues is harsh, but it's a bit realistic if you ask me, because a real train driver wouldn't gently caress up then have some people come by and reset the train to its proper position.

Random Stranger posted:It's hires video footage. The Train Simulator series used video footage for their graphics while Go by Train! used rendered graphicsx. In the crossover games they used the Train Simulator graphics. That noise that sounds like a violin is the train's VVVF inverter motor starting. No joke.

Good god, I'm about 8 minutes in and this game looks frustratingly hard. The alternating views are cool but everything else seems to be set up so that it's impossible to not take a hit every so often.

Shock Trooper posted:edit: I have literally no idea what happened at the very end of the game. Gradius is a cool challenge, but I don't know if I'd watch it given how Arino's not too good with shmups. Also the Famicom/NES version in general isn't that good of a port since romhackers have been able to do better (see: the hacked cart from the KUBOKEN segment, the AC hack can be seen on Youtube and it not only has arcade like graphics but it also makes the laser work the right way and lets you have 4 Options as opposed to only 2). Then again it was one of the first Konami titles on there and they didn't have much of a grasp on the hardware. Zeether fucked around with this message at 15:23 on Mar 3, 2012 |

In the Tamage in the Bikkuriman World episode I found it quite cute how there was an Initial D arcade game in the game corner, since Saitama is actually one of the prefectures Takumi and his crew visit in the series and one of the mountain passes, Tsuchisaka, is a selectable course in that particular version of the game. Also I have an old issue of CoroCoro Comics from I think 2000 or so (which Pokemon is serialized in) and I remember seeing Bikkuriman stuff advertised in there. I don't know if it's still around anymore now, but it definitely was whenever that magazine was published. e: Calling Abe "Lord Abe" from now on Zeether fucked around with this message at 16:48 on Jul 12, 2012 |

I kind of want to play that Pachicom game they featured in the 1985 game showcase. Even though it's probably the most boring game ever.

I wonder what a Super Robot Wars challenge would be like. Since the games take a while, it might be something better reserved for the live 24 hour challenge.

Are you guys planning on subbing the other season 1 episodes? The Taito one has an interview with the guy who worked on Densha De Go!/Go By Train! and I'd love to see that.

I really enjoy the interviews in the Season 1 episodes, especially when Arino asks them "What are games to you?"
