Game Center CX - Near Perfect Complete English Collection torrent

GAME CENTER CX: NEAR PERFECT COMPLETE ENGLISH COLLECTION
December 5th, 2013 Edition

===

Hello!


This torrent comprises >what I believe< to be the most current

and complete collection of Game Center CX videos released on the

internet by English fan subbing groups as of December 5th, 2013.

I decided to put this collection together to demonstrate my love

for the series, and to help as many people as possible get in

touch with GCCX without having to struggle to find the episodes.

Currently, it can be a real pain to track down all the episodes

in decent quality (it has taken me a year to gather all this

material). I hope this collection sets a new standard in getting

the show out to the people and the confusion of the past few

years can be left behind!

What is Game Center CX (GCCX)?

GCCX is a live-action, unscripted video game show that revolves

around the trials and tribulations of our host, middle-aged

Japanese comedian Chief Arino, as he marathon plays through some

of the most difficult and challenging video games on consoles

ranging the NES, Super Nintendo, Playstation, and everything in-

between. Arino's goal is to simply beat the game challenge of the

day and become a champion, or go home an abject failure...

Oftentimes, he's a little bit of both!


However, GCCX isn't just a gaming show. It has a wide appeal and

will entertain all, whether you're a hardcore gamer or the type

of person that mispronounces Mario's name. Side-splitting humor,

intense gaming, triumphant comebacks, memorable miracle moments

and detailed peeks into the whole other world that is Japanese

gaming are just a few of the highlights GCCX has to offer as

Arino struggles through multiple games spanning many consoles and

genres. Truly, this is a magnificent comedy\gaming\plain ole'

human show, and you now have hours of material to pore through

waiting at your fingertips.


To put it in the purest terms: GCCX is one of those TV shows that

you need in your life. I guarantee you will come to love GCCX for

probably the rest of your life. Yeah, it's THAT good.

WHAT'S IN THE TORRENT?:
All current English translated episodes of GCCX, seasons 1-17 in

their best available quality, including all currently translated

specials, live events, advertisements, Nintendo Channel episodes,

extra Arino appearances on Japanese TV, and much more.


All of this is neatly organized and arranged for ease of viewing.

In interest of presenting all available subbed material, there

are some episodes that overlap content from other episodes where

sub groups have gone above and beyond and translated episodes

beyond previous subbed releases. I have named these episodes to

lessen confusion as "Full Coverage."


I have also included an episode guide that was last current in

August 2013. I used it as a guide for tracking down the truly

obscure bits of Arino-nalia out there. I also followed the naming

scheme for the specials\live events and other material presented

there, as well, to avoid confusion. Hopefully my efforts are good

enough!


It's safe to say not many people have a collection of GCCX this

complete, but sharing this show and getting the word out is more

important than claiming to be a master collector.

WHAT ISN'T IN THE TORRENT? (AND WHY...):
In the interests of promoting the series without detracting from

its Retro Game Master US DVD sales, I have not included the 14 Hi-

Def English subbed episodes contained on said US DVD.

For now, you'll have to endure the Kotaku dubbed releases.

However, if you want to find the original Japanese audio

episodes, and you like the show and want to support more high-

quality, official subbed episodes being released in the future,

please look up the Retro Game Master DVD at Amazon

and

similar sellers.


By buying this relatively cheap DVD boxset (buy it from 1st party

sellers, not from used sellers!), not only will you help GCCX

out, you'll show that we want more Game Center CX material

officially translated and presented in Hi-Def quality. Also,

you'll get a previously unsubbed episode: Shiren the Wanderer.

It's a great episode and you're missing out if you don't have it!

The DVD is the only place to see it while also helping out our

favorite beleaguered gamer, Chief Arino!

That should be all. If I am missing something, please let me know

in the comments and I'll update my release. I may periodically update this pack

with new files if the demand is there.
