[Movie] Game Center CX: Playing Games So You Don't Have To

I've been meaning to make a thread about this for a while now and it's high time I got off my lazy ass and did so.

What's GCCX you ask? Why ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN WITH A BIG QUOTE BOX:

Retro Game Master, known in Japan as GameCenter CX (???????CX G?mu Sent? Sh? Ekkusu?), is a Japanese television series where Shinya Arino, a member of comedy duo Yoiko, plays Japan's most popular video games (a majority of which are Family Computer games) and records his progress as he works through a time limit, usually lasting up to one day. He is supported by his Assistant Directors (herein referred to as ADs) and Staff, both via moral support and actual gameplay.

In short, it's similar to the Let's Play's you see floating around on the internet. What makes this one unique however is that Arino is sort of the anti-AVGN. Whereas AVGN plays games and gets mad as hell, Arino is extremely chill, often approaching the games from a more relaxed and humorous angle. He's played a bunch of games from all over that you'd probably be familiar with, like A Link to The Past and Castlevania III, to more unknown things (among non-hardcore nerds anyway) like Another World/Out of This World and Umihara Kawase.



Yes way! The show runs about 58 minutes per ep, and a lot of the folks over at SA have banded together to help subtitle the episodes and get people to watch. It's a seriously great show, I'd recommend picking at least one title you're familiar with to get a feel and then dive in to the rest. My favorites are probably the Umihara Kawase and Another World episodes. The episodes themselves are being subbed in random order, and there's a good overview of the show and all of it's episodes here.

Yup, looks like it's all the stuff just uploaded to youtube, which is increidble considering they don't let people with newer accounts upload shit that long anymore. Thanks for the find~

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The SA guys are on a roll, with the Mighty Bomb Jack Live special and Goemon - Legend of the Mystical Ninja episodes.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Aaaand two more! Milton's Secret Castle and Contra!

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
