PC-Genjin on Game Center CX!
« on: August 13, 2008, 03:55:20 PM »
Hey, are any of you guys fans of the show Game Center CX?  It’s basically the “Iron Chef” of Japanese retro games.  In every episode the host (Arino) will attempt to clear an old video game (usually Famicom) in one sitting.  It's a good show.

Anyway last year I saw the episode where he took on the game PC-Genjin (Bonk).  Great episode.  But recently I found it for download and wanted to let those of you who don’t get Japanese TV know that you can watch it.

First go here:

(I wouldn’t recommend checking out the rest of the site though, some of that stuff is creepy)

Downlond: Game Center CX 60

It’s a bittorrent file, but I assume most of you know how to use that.

Great episode, but all in Japanese.  If you want to see some of the early episodes in English, there is also this site:

http://www.tvnihon.com  (just look for the Game Center CX episodes, they have 14 or so).

Just thought I’d share.

Yes, I just wish I could find episodes dubbed in English.

You watch Shin-chan for 24 hours straight.  The first 12 hours in English, the second in Japanese and then you tell me there is no difference :wink:

I just waited 5 hours for the torrent to kick through....

Only to see I don't have the "XviD LameCBR" codec, so I can't play it on Winamp

Download the VLC player from videolan.org it will play basically anything.

I wish we had a show like that in our neck of the woods.  Would definitely be a million times better than the other reality crap.
