DVD: GAME CENTER PORNO

di Frankie (11/22/2007 - 00:38)


(NSFW) After Game Center CX what's better than a porno movie set in a Japanese Game Center with two lesbian malking love on arcade machines? We just found this porno masterpiece (starred by Sakurada Sakura) that has been released last year by HOT Entertainment. Actually this video company this year created the Hot Entertainment AV Visual Arts Accademy: the very first school to learn how to get a job (behind the camera) in the porno industry!

GAME CENTER CX: Arino no Chousenjou

di Frankie (11/15/2007 - 01:00)


Today Bandai Namco has released Game Center CX for Nintendo DS. The game is based on the omonimus japanese cult TV show.


Akiba OS posted a series of photos of the package  and  manual: I love the retro design that resembles the old Famicom and PCEngine user manuals!
This month's Wired magazine has a feature on Game Center CX (tv show) written by Brian Ashcraft from Kotaku fame. Instead Wired game guru Chris Kohler has just posted his first impressions on the game (with a very usefull walktrough if you can't read Japanese at all).


from Crunk Games:

"Japan has given us a few television gems over the years. A lot of memorable anime series, sure, but a fair share of live action programming as well (what, you want me to make a list?). But for the country that redefined "game culture," not a lot of interesting game-related programming has come through. Can we blame them? Just like the rest of the world, most of the video game stuff that’s been produced are kids shows, a TV news story every so often or, these days, nerdy Famitsu DVD segments — nothing really, truly memorable.

Game Center CX is different. It’s comedic, dramatic, even a bit mental, but altogether it’s an unforgettable show about what sounds like a forgettable concept: a guy trying to beat old Nintendo games. I was late to the party when I saw it, but once I did, I had to see all of it. After that, I decided I had to share it the best way I could, and this episode guide is the result. You could call it "spoiling," also "insane," but I’ll gladly wear those badges if anyone else finds the show and loves it as I have." Ray Barnholt
