Dang, today's episode of CX is Altered Beast! Sick. They're releasing a DVD that's their Mega Drive special. I really hope we get more Genesis games on the show.

strong +1 - did he play much mega drive in the day, or is a lot of this new to him?

Every time this thread is bumped with no new subtitled episode, a piece of me dies. :(

I'd gladly pay a monthly subscription fee to have the newest episodes translated. I miss this show.
I will say, the one good thing about Kotaku was their attempt to try to localize the show.

I feel exactly the opposite, the show worked way better in a full Japanese context, with just subs. Kotaku's version stripped the show of its character and charm.

I give them credit for trying, but the narrator that dubbed over Kan was way too enthusiastic and corny, not playing against type for the theme of the show the way Kan does, which is why his narration works.

I probably wouldn't have heard of the show if not for Kotaku. So I guess there's that. They probably introduced a lot of westerners to the show.

Thought a new episode was out, but all I got was despair.

Guess I'm rewatching old ones. Tokimeki is my favorite one.

So I really REALLY hate to bump this thread, but are their any ways to view the episodes without torrents? I have a bit of a huge backlog to go through, but the direct downloads have nearly all been wiped on the site.

No, and I have to assume any links to such a place would not be allowed. :p

Yeah, i'm a fucking idiot. D'oh.

Since someone else bumped this thing,

Does anyone have any news on SA-GCCX? Their facebook and twitter accounts are pretty much dormant.

I have a Something Awful account. To make a long story short: Life happened. Seems optimistic for the beginning of next year. The first of a two-parter is for sure done, but Zari needs more time to get the other episode done before it goes out.

Curiously enough, YouTube randomly recommended this to me at the end of some random video lol. It's not a translation, but it's a new video of Game Center DX, and it's about The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. It's unfortunate that it's not Arino.

That's Hamaguchi, Arino's comedy partner. He's brought him up on CX a few times, it's pretty funny. When he's out on location, people ask Arino about Hamaguchi too lol
 
Still nothing.

Like I said before its quite sad. I mean I was in the fansubbing scene before, so I know that a lot of fansubbers actually "seek" attention, but still.

When the series got more "mainstream" success, that even Kotaku bought one season, we got like so many episodes it was hard to keep up. When people kinda lost interest, now we get nothing for months.
A bit like the old days, when T-N stopped subbing it and nothing came out for years till S-A did it.

I can understand that, but when it was popular not only zari was subbing it, but we also had some other groups/people subbing the episodes.

Pretty sure it says its the last episode of the Red/Blue/Green run, not the last of the series all together.

All episodes were released on Youtube first and the last one will be live streamed.

Here

※誤解してる人がいますが『ゲームセンターCXの最終回』ではなく
『ゲームセンターCXポケモン回の最終回』です

Literally says last episode of the Pokemon run, not of the series.

GCCX is a big deal, the finale wouldn't just be a Youtube live stream, come on.

Exactly. Glad you were so fast to correct him. Can't have false rumors spreading around.

That mini heart attack... It was intentional to make us think no subs is better than no show, wasn't it?

But I've always been curious about how popular it is over there, and how many shows are over ten years old. I assume playing at a full Budokan means it's really popular but what do I know.

Since the topic is bumped, this is a perfect time as any, but I recently watched the Kickle Cubicle episode and I got a bit emotional haha. When I was a kid, I had a Nintendo Power issue where in one of the Counselor's Corners, one of the counselor's fav NES game was listed as KC. After that, I had to play that game. After all I only played the "best" games!

Brought back memories of my dad calling video stores to see if they had it for rent, with me cowering in some corner with my fingers in my ears because I knew they wouldn't have it. I really wanted to see what Kickle Cubicle was. It was kind of a childhood obsession! Then I played it and it was OK. At least for my kid tastes.

Made me want to revisit it sometime.

God I love this show.

What is the best way to view older episodes?

I had watched 1 & 2 a few months ago via torrent from sa-gccx's site, but now there are just dead links to Mega.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, I didn't check S1. And it's the one season I don't have downloaded or I'd seed it.

You could watch it on youtube. Or just skip the first two seasons, they're kinda rough imo and the challenge format starts at S3.

Does anyone know what's on that new Mega Drive Special DVD? Is it an anthology of old challenges or all new stuff?

I'm so excited!

I was beginning to think there would never be another one, so I was tempted to go back to the beginning and rewatch every translated episode.

If those translators had a Patreon, I'd definitively contribute. Not sure if they could though for legal reasons.
