A new episode of 奴が来る (Yatsu ga Kuru) is out. This one is basically a continuation of where he attempts the 8 coin star on さむいさむい マウンテン (SamuiSamui Maunten). It’s nearly 30 minutes… but with the cuts, it probably took many more hours to actually complete. But, does he actually do it?! The ending is pretty epic.

I wonder if there will be more episodes of this?! If there are, you’ll be sure to find ‘em here.

Also, again, can’t seem to find these on YouTube. ごめんなさい!

Watch out for the Green Mushroom!

In this fun web series, the guys doing this don’t just play a game and make commentary (not that that’s a bad thing). In fact, the guy begins with his 120 star complete save of Mario 64. What makes this series unique is that he plays a fun metagame called 奴が来る (Yatsu ga kuru).

The rules are simple: He spawns a green mushroom, usually from climbing a tree, and then runs from it. If he get’s the 1up, he loses. The only way to win is to complete the star objective before the green mushroom gets him.

Anyway, humor ensues as they freak the fuck out every time the green mushroom shows up on the screen. It is based on another video series without narration where they just avoided the green mushroom, but the narration and build up in this series makes it way more interesting.

Sorry, couldn’t find it on YouTube. You can always get a ニコニコ動画 account though!

Tokyo Game Show Babes Round-up

Written by Jeshii on 2008.10.09 – 13:48 -

‘Tis the season for booth babes, or as they are called in Japanese, “Companions.”

So here is the round up of galleries so far:
- @nifty has probably the best set so far.
- Yomiuri’s Gallery. They say they are introducing the booths themselves, but when you see the thumbnails, you’ll know the truth. While this Capcom girl is probably my favorite, I gotta say, this Square Enix chick is hot!
- Kotaku‘s collection seems like it was taken with an iPhone. But they are posting newer, better pics all the time on their flickr stream.
- Jiji.com’s collection so far is pretty fetching.
- Joystiq has yet to post an obligatory babe collection. For shame.

Tokyo Game Show!

Written by Jeshii on 2008.10.08 – 23:47 -

Tokyo Game Show begins today (10/9 JST) for businesses in Japan, and opens to the public on Saturday!

I was just thinking, “Wow I can’t believe one year has gone by already.” And then I was thinking, “You know you are pretty far gone when you measure years by TGS.”

It’s actually very affordable at 1,200円 (yen) per day, assuming you don’t have to tack $1000 for air fare. >< ;

For the rumors, go check out Kotaku’s round-up. What I really want to go see is the GMT music show going on Saturday night. With しょこたん (Shokotan) and YMCK… It’s going to be ヲタク (otaku) paradise.

Watch the videos after the jump for a taste of the artists.
