Arino lobbies for a Luigi cameo in Retro Game Challenge
I’ll leave it so someone else to tell us which episode this is from (the GIFs are from Goomba Shoe). If you also want to update us on the status of Game Center CX 2’s fan translation, feel free to chime in :o)

Robot Ninja Haggle Man 3 Famicom label
It’s the cartridge art the world I demanded after seeing Nina Matsumoto’s original illustration! Tiny Cartridge reader Lord Toon wasn’t the one who commissioned Nina for the piece, but he decided to answer my request anyway. Is anyone out there a bad enough dude to print this out and desecrate a Famicom cart with the label?

Robot Ninja Haggle Man 3 by Nina Matsumoto
Much like Indies Zero/Gears did when developing Haggle Man 3, Nina referenced Ninja Gaiden heavily for this sick commissioned piece. Apparently someone will be making a Famicom cartridge label out of the art? If you’re that someone, make sure to send us the results!

Let’s watch some Earthbound
There are two new and awesome Earthbound/Mother 2 playthroughs you can watch this weekend:
- Shinya Arino plays through Mother 2 in this Game Center CX episode subtitled by Last Continue GCCX - you can download it or stream it
- Series creator Shigesato Itoi recently played through Mother 2 too — watch the 4+ hour broadcast here
Shout outs to Maple Leaf for the Mother 3 GIF.

Retro Game Master streaming news coming soon
I don’t know exactly WHAT the news is, but the American Facebook page for the show has some news on the way about video-on-demand presentations of Retro Game Master, the translated version of Game Center CX.
The show is “still waiting to hear from our US distributor.” Whatever distributor it is, and whatever service, I will sign up for it.

Arino plays Balloon Fight on Wii U Virtual Console
So was the Iwata Asks/Balloon Fight clip a secret teaser for the release of Balloon Fight on Wii U? That fateful meeting is mentioned early on in this special, and Iwata writes in with an objective for the Kacho.
In any case, the transition to HD allows Arino to… point out stains on the ceiling.
I wonder if Nintendo of America would ever consider putting together shows like this, with charismatic gentlemen playing all its Virtual Console games and cracking jokes? I wonder where you’d even find someone to volunteer for a project like that.

Shit just got real with Retro Game Challenge 2
Here’s something wonderful that popped up in the comments of our Retro Game Challenge post earlier today — Nina Matsumoto (a.k.a. Space Cowboy, a.k.a. Zari-Gani) has joined the fan translation team for Game Center CX 2/Retro Game Challenge 2!
Nearly two years have passed since efforts to patch this revered DS sequel started, but it’s faced challenges due to the lack of translators willing to see this project through. That’s why we’re so excited about this news — Game Center CX fans will likely recognize Nina’s name from her involvement with the official Retro Game Master DVD set’s translation, the Game Center CX fansubs released through Something Awful, and the artwork featured on the Game Center CX in USA box!
The team is still looking for translators and experienced ROM hackers to help with the project, so drop them a line and help them make this happen please!

Arino plays Retro Game Challenge
I had the same reaction when I played the game, too. Here was my reaction when Game Center CX 2 never released in North America.

Arino has trouble keeping it up
“It” being the box set for Retro Game Master: The Game Center CX Collection, of course. Discotek also had issues keeping the DVDs up at Amazon leading up to Christmas, but it’s now back in stock. Surprisingly, Amazon — through third-party sellers — also has import copies of Game Center CX 2 on sale. Some of the used prices (as low as $50.11) are much cheaper than the $80 Play-Asia is asking for.

Iwata and Arino playing video games and reacting just like kids after one of them dies. In this GIF, the 40-year-old Arino is playing Balloon Fight, which his 52-year-old companion here helped develop way back in the day.
If you missed it, this Iwata Asks/Game Center CX episode was fan-subbed and posted online last weekend!

Rejoice! The Game Center CX and Iwata Asks crossover from last week, one of 2012’s biggest moments in video games according to people who are smart and should be listened to, is now available with English subtitles!
You’ll not only hear a little bit about how GCCX is edited, but also why Nintendo president Satoru Iwata’s father refused to talk to him for six months, and what it feels like to shake Iwata’s hand.
The massivest of props to Nina Matsumoto, who turned around this fan translation super quick (you should buy the Retro Game Master DVD set, which she also helped translate, to thank her). She also promises to translate Nintendo Direct’s previous GCCX episodes soon, and will try to translate future episodes quickly, too.
