Hey, Manuel... well, and everyone else... have any of you seen the Japanese TV show GameCenter CX? It's really great and he mostly plays Super Famicom and regular Famicom games.

Well, the DS game of GameCenter CX was released today (I should be getting my copy soon from Play-Asia) and I'm just spreading the word about the show.

The basics are that a fake company called GameCenter CX has a guy who comes in and takes video game challenges of a sort. The host is a very funny comedian and it's very interesting all the things the show does.

I created a wiki article here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GAMECENTER_CX

And there are links to past shows here:

And finally an English synopsis site:

It's a lot of fun and you learn about great new games... like Umihara Kawase (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umihara_Kawase)for the Super Famicom. I got it right after watching the episode because it looked so cool... (well, and it is).

Enjoy, all.

I have seen some minutes of the show. I think it's quite interesting.
That game interests me too. When you get it, please tell me how it is. :)

There are a cool episode when Arino visits the guy with the complete famicom collection, he shows 2 RARE carts that I never seen on my life :

I love Game Center CX! :D

I've seen all of the TV-Nihon fansubbed episodes, and two raw episodes (Prince of Persia and Lemmings for the SFC). I want more subtitled episodes, or at least a good torrent source to get them all :'(.

Also, I can't watch the episodes on veoh.com because of country restrictions :'(.
(I know you can use an anonymous proxy to get around that, but it's too slow and not worth the hassle.)

Where did you get the 2 raw episodes? I'd love to see the PoP one.

If you have a link you don't want to post here, please pm me.
