Spoilers and off-topic comments have been omitted
1. Gotta be the live from yesterday
2. It's Fatal Fury
4. Princess Tomato sucked too
5. All the live challenges suck
9. Pro Golfer Yui. He didn't struggle, and the game was weird...
11. Shiren
12. Zelda or Mystery Dungeon
13. It's Shiren.
14. Shiren or that one he cleared in two hours. If we're talking about old ones, Phoenix
15. Arino didn't understand the system in Shiren at all so it was annoying to watch. The staff should've given him some advice at least
16. PilotWings
18. Prince Tomato or something that sounded like that
19. Zelda (Ocarina of Time).
20. Fatal Fury
21. I forget the name, but that dull as shit action western game for SNES
22. Tokimeki Memorial was god tier
23. Gotta be Fatal Fury
26. Yesterday's live
27. >>21 You mean Out of this World? I liked Fatal Fury because Nakayama was so into it
28. All the lives are boring. It's more fun to watch the edited version
29. They picked a bad game for yesterday's live. The live challenges are always bad though
30. It's painful to watch Arino when he's obviously bored by a game. Lately it seems like Battletoads is the only one he's really enjoyed
32. All the lives are horrible
35. Legacy of the Wizard
38. I love it when he yells at the characters who won't listen to him in episodes like Pac-Man 2 and that sinking ship one
39. Even though it was live, Takeshi's Challenge was funny
40. >>39 That's because they let Inoko MAX play. Lemmings was fun too because they let the ADs play
43. Quest of Ki. How many hundreds of times did he die in the same spot?
48. >>9 I liked Battle Golfer... He was so bad at Shiren that I couldn't watch him. I don't think he understood the turn-based battle system at all.
52. Shiren, because [spoiler]. ActRaiser, because he was obviously in a bad mood. Fire Arino already and find another guy
53. I love all the quiz episodes. It's hilarious whenever a baseball question comes up, especially ones from the 80's
56. I only know the DVD episodes and the first season with the game industry interviews, but Fatal Fury was pretty bad
57. God tier: S.O.S., Ninja Gaiden. Shit tier: Princess Tomato
59. Masked Ninja Hanamaru was so easy, it was boring to watch. He was breezing through it without even trying
60. >>21 Out of this World was fun! On the flip side, what are the best episodes? I feel like rewatching some
61. >>60 Yuyu's Quiz Go! Go! or Koshien
62. >>59 The boss fights were shit
63. I liked The Wing of Madoola, but the gameplay was pretty boring
64. Out of the recent eps I only like Pac-Man 2 and Battletoads
65. >>60 The best ones are Ninja Gaiden, Prince of Persia, and S.O.S.
66. I wish Out of this World and Tokimeki Memorial were on the DVD. Seems like there's licensing issues
67. The best episode was Ninja Gaiden, when the staff all gathered together
69. Doraemon was a good one
70. How come no one's mentioned Lemmings?!
71. Everyone brings it up, but I'm not that big on the Ninja Gaiden episode. I like the ones where Arino is mumbling to himself as he plays. I liked Fade to Okhotsk. That was a classic
72. >>65 Persia was awesome. I like Mighty Bomb Jack too
74. Ocarina of Time was two episodes of barely any content
75. I don't like the Super Mario World episode that much.
76. I liked it when Tsuruoka sang teeeen miles~ eight miles~
77. The Shiren episode was bad. On the flip side, my faves are Okhotsk, Sickle Weasel and Umihara Kawase
78. >>76 Tsuruoka was only good in that episode
79. >>76 That was fun, but now he sings it every time he appears so I'm getting bored of it
81. I really liked Go by Train
82. Out of this World and S.O.S. were hilarious
83. I laugh whenever I hear Tsuruoka's song
86. Who's the best AD?
88. The first episode I ever watched was S.O.S. I busted my gut laughing
89. Why did he choose the bottom route in Castlevania?
90. Gotta be Shiren.
92. S.O.S. was truly hilarious
94. >>86 Toujima, of course
95. >>86 Yamada
96. I liked the first Mega Man episode and the Ghosts'n Goblins series
98. >>60 Umihara Kawase, Contra, Super Ghouls'n Ghosts
99. >>86 Toujima, Sasano, Urakawa. Pick one
101. >>86 Toujima-Inoko-Urakawa are the power trio. I like Emoyan, too
103. >>86 Ability-wise, Sasano and Emoyan. Personality-wise, Inoko, Nakayama
106. The "Shaddup" --> Lord Abe's Ambition --> Delinquent Daimyos flow <3
108. Picks for worst: Shiren = [spoiler]. Ocarina of Time = [spoiler]. Kirby Superstar = It was way too easy. Super Mario Bros 2 = Akita was ugly
111. Thanks to yesterday's live, Takahashi's grown on me. He sure can talk
112. >>108 Ocarina of Time was a disappointment. I was looking forward to it
114. Not boring to watch, but the most painful to watch was Super Mario 3
116. All of Season 4
117. Out of this World was only funny because of his partner
118. My favorite was when he played Kirby with Hamaguchi in that live
119. Gotta by Puyo Puyo
120. All the Mario ones suck
122. Arino does pretty well in the Ghosts'n Goblins series, so why does he suck at 2D Mario so much?
125. All of Season 7 was boring
126. I was looking forward to it, but Night of the Sickle Weasel was boring. I heard it was a classic, but it felt too dated in a bad way. I couldn't get into the game and neither could Arino
127. >>119 Why? Takahashi was funny in that!
132. None of the Nintendo Channel ones are a miss
137. >>122 He's bad with dashes, so he sucks at anything that requires speed. Some parts require dash.
138. >>132 Volfied and Splatterhouse were both god tier
140. >>132 I'm not a fan of the Metroid or Super Mario 3 ones. Everything else is good.
142. Shiren, Shiren, and Shiren
143. I've been watching since Season 1. I never thought this show would get so big. Seems low-budget, too. It's probably not going to end for a while.
144. When it comes to ADs, Emoyan is the best ever. He's got ridiculously good chemistry with Arino
145. >>143 Kan says he wants to aim for 10 years so it's not going to end for a while
146. Worst 3: Fatal Fury, Koshien, Puyo Puyo. Didn't even feel like burning the DVD.
148. The show is generally good whenever they do a classic game. Like F-Zero and Wrecking Crew and Mario 64
151. Anything with crap games
152. It totally saved the CS network and the DVDs are selling so there's no reason for it to end it. If Arino himself wants to end it, there's nothing they can do, but even Arino's gained popularity thanks to this show.
155. >>151 You're forgetting about Paris Dakar Rally
158. When it's a crap game, Arino's jabs makes the episode
159. Sword of Musashi, I think. The one where he does versus with the staff. Also, Street Fighter 2, where Nakayama played most of it. Zzz, boring
161. He looked like he was having fun with ActRaiser
162. >>159 SF2 was Inoko, right? Nakayama did Fatal Fury. SF2 was god tier
