Isn't fuji TV imploding? One of their stars tried to rape a woman and broke her arm and all their sponsors pulled out.

>>11796450
That's a problem and there is a reduction in ads in protest until the mess is sorted out. But FujiTV ONE is their variety and sports subscription channel that doesn't have ads at all.

>>11796459
But it's all under the same umbrella. If they're bleeding money GCCX would be easy to cut. Not like it makes them much money.

>>11796117 (OP)
bah gawd is that mega man

>>11796117 (OP)
Don't forget the Punch Out live show this Friday too.

>low amount of staff

I would imagine GCCX has a high profit margin. The main costs would be game liscencing, staff salary, editing.

>>11796117 (OP)
It feels like they've been challenging a whole bunch of Konami games lately.

>Ai Senshi Nicol

Solid game. It's a top down exploration shooter game so it's not another 2D side scroller. Operation Logic Bomb (Ikari no Yōsai or Fortress of Wrath), and Guardian Legend, are similar top down shooting games they should try out some time. Ikari no Yōsai - had a super generic title in the west and was kind of slept on but it's solid.

Guardian legend has short ship shooting segments between levels, and the main levels plays a bit like the top down levels from Master Blaster or Zelda but with a gun.

>>11796643
Jaleco and Konami games especially. They likely have special deals with the big publishers rather than negotiate per game.

Maybe we'll get a sub for Friday the 13th too, like something spooky.

>>11796930
You can guy Arino's table and chair for 76,000 yen each! What a steal!

>>11796117 (OP)
It seemed like this was on a lot of 'muh Japan-only hidden gem'-type lists for a while back in the day, but has since been forgotten. I don't know if it's the fact that it's an FDS release or what, because it's definitely among the better Konami games for the system.
>>11796932
If you're a big fan of the show, that's probably not too bad of a deal for the chair I guess, since it'd still have some utility in addition to being a collectible show-used prop.

>>11796963
Standard issue Korean orthpedic chair.

怒りの要塞 is a super generic title too.

>>11796530
So is anyone going to stream it?
People are also constantly asking the twitch channel to stream it but I don't know if anyone is going to try

Because it's on so late in Japan time it's actually within reason for us to watch it.

>>11796450
qrd please?

>>11798246
Just go check the older gccx threads, that guy keeps bringing it up for some reason.

>>11798246
Fuji TV execs were basically running an escort service using their female employees. Forcing them to go on dates with stars. One of them, a former boy band idol, sperged out and tried to rape a woman and broke her arm. He payed out a secret settlement of $500,000. This all came to light and 100% of Fuji TV's sponsors pulled out, and their entire leadership resigned.

Based.

Unfathomably based

Cringe. Also

Very cringe.

So one one is streaming the 400 minute challenge today?

>>11798440
I was just about to link you a stream but it just got suspended, guess we'll have to just wait for someone to upload it after it finishes.

>>11798508
Where were you streaming where you got shut down that fast?

>>11798531
I wasn't streaming it, some japanese dude was streaming it on this site:
https://live.fc2.com/

That site usually has someone streaming the latest episodes as they air live on TV but I guess someone must've reported it for it to get taken down that quickly.

>>11798548
Well I guess keep watching it and keep us posted if someone tries to rehost. What would be the best way to check? Just keep refreshing and look for a thumbnail that looks like the show?

>>11798548
Was this the channel that was streaming it?
https://live.fc2.com/45783229/

The comments are posting about the 400 minute live show. Did he just change it to some shit so he wouldn't get banned?

>>11798586
Nah, that stream just plays retro game videos 24/7 so I guess some viewers are using that as a backup chat. This was the stream that got suspended and now it just returns a 404 error:

>>11798403
The investigation is still on-going, and there have been attempts to link an unrelated scandal (Matsumoto Hitoshi of Downtown, which had his own harassment scandal last year) into the current Fuji Television scandal (that boy idol in question and Matsumoto did have one-off show together). Check out or ask >>>/jp/tv/ (the Japanese Movie and TV General, currently >>>/jp/49487144) if you need to know/ask more about it, they're following the case.

400 minute live special is airing on the twitch channel right now.

>>11799750
Also I want to know who drew him so moe

Punch out special? More like filtered by Sandman for 4+ hours special. This shit was painful to watch.

>they fucked up the credits roll entirely
hahaha

All in all it was a fun watch. I'm glad he at least beat Sandman but he's clearly never ever going to finish punch out.

>>11800024
it's airing on Fuji tv one

>>11801869
Days ago. Someone already uploaded the whole thing and the 24/7 gccx twitch channel played it last night. It's probably up to download somewhere but I haven't checked since I already watched the whole thing and have no desire to rewatch it.
I do want a webm of one moment where they zoomed in on a picture someone drew of Arino with bloodshot eyes and then overlayed it slowly over his face as he lost to Sandman for 3 straight hours with no breaks and it was nearing 5am though. It was really funny.

>>11796117 (OP)
>Oh! My god

I still want the full 24-hour pilotwings special....

>>11802074
Would Pilotwings 64 be any good? I wish they'd tackel the new Switch port, since it's MUCH better and has better frame rates. The original goes into single digit FPS at times.

Anyone save the stream?

There's a Remastered Sub-group. In case anyone is wondering what the difference is, these rips are un-cropped and much sharper.

>>11803783
just so you know weebly is going out of business in july and you'll need to migrate your site to square or somewhere else

>>11803783
Why were the originals cropped?

There's a torrent up on Nyaa:

>>11803796
just in case of that 0.1% chance that you're actually serious, I'll answer honestly and without being smug about it.

4:3 aspect ratio used to be popular and common back in the day

>>11804128
So subbers would purposely crop the stuff they were subbing? I've never seen that done before.

>>11803796
>>11804128
>>11804389
That screenshot is from Sonic the Hedgehog, literally the first GCCX episode to be in HD. It's possible that the only cap the original subbers could find at the time was from a non-HD version of the show's channel.

>>11804664
They were still doing it by S14, since those episodes are being worked on as well. I suspect they cropped it to cut down on filesize with "little of value" being lost. Also eliminated most of the letterboxing on the 4:3 videogames featured.

The older episodes were horribly preserved, with the goal of just getting the file sizes as small as possible. The show is still mostly distributed in 1280x720, despite being broadcast in 1080 for the same reasons.

>>11802879
i only care for 8-16 bit games mostly
super mario kart snes and pilotwings snes are classics, the n64 sequels always just felt like they missed the point

>>11796117 (OP)
I want more adventure fmv games.

>>11805894
Pilotwings and SMK SFC are both extremely precise games with high skill ceilings. the N64 games instead focus on wowing people with the 3D aspects, and are less precise. They're still okay games.

>>11805894
>i only care for 8-16 bit games mostly

There's a bunch of PCE and Master system games i'd like to see them tackle, like Moonlight Lady or some of the anime sports games with story cutscenes.

FF7 is inevitable. It's gonna be 4 episodes and you're gonna enjoy it.

>>11806130
Ok, I'm ok with this.

>>11806130
The original game was perfect as is and should have been left alone. All the spin offs and remakes is what ruined FF7.

>>11806130
Has Arino challenged a single FF?
