NicoMasterMedley ~2008 Aki no Saiten~
Written by Jeshii on 2008.10.22 – 14:00 -
Well, while I’m waiting for the newest in the line of ニコニコ動画 (NicoNicoDouga) master medleys (the most recent being ニコニコ動画流星群), I found this medley of songs done to iDOLM@STER clips. I like some of the songs in it (カプチーノ is the best by far), but what really got me about it was the editing. The videos for all these songs are amazing. If the game is like that, then I guess I should be looking for into it, but I have a feeling this is the skill of the editor. Anyone know for sure?
YouTube links after the jump for the ニコ動画 impaired.

It’s Kouyou time!
Written by Jeshii on 2008.10.16 – 18:13 -
Everyone knows about the 桜 (sakura) time and 花見 (hanami) parties, but the complementary time in 秋 (aki) is the coming of the 紅葉 (kouyou) when the leaves around Japan start to change colors.
If you are planning to visit Japan, I highly recommend autumn, especially if you are a nature person. The weather is no longer blistering hot and the rainy season is over, so you can go outside and do some excellent hiking.
Go check out goo for the 紅葉 guide and you can check how far along the leaves are near you. And, if you don’t live in Japan, we can always live vicariously through flickr.

NicoNicoDouga AKI!!!
Written by Jeshii on 2008.10.02 – 12:00 -So, NicoNicoDouga has had some interesting version names. There was β (beta),γ (gamma), RC, RC2, SP1, then they went with 夏 (natsu).
But then the season changed and now it is fall. So!
The new version of NicoNicoDouga is 秋 (aki)! Makes sense. After Summer comes Autumn. It’s simple. And the video introducing it was funny, saying 「文句あるか」 (monku aru ka, “Any complaints?!”) And, the 秋葉原 (Akihabara) tie-in potential can’t be ignored.
They were calling the next version… “Double Beta,” but no one really knew what that was supposed to mean. So they went with the natural next choice.
New features have been announced… many not yet implemented. Short explanation after the jump.
