One of my favorite TV shows is Games Center CX AKA as Retro Game Master in the US.
From time to time the challenge has been based on a PC Engine title.

Cool thanks man I was wondering how many they had done. I've seen the Kato and Ken episode which was very entertaining and the bonk one which was also good. Love this show!
There have been a few more PC Engine challenges, however these have not been translated/subbed yet.
arino also did le yokaidouchuuki :)
I have never been sure of the correct title as I have seen several over the years. Some include:
Brothers DuoMazov: YOUKAI DOUCHUUKI
PCE Bible: YŌKAI DŌCHŪKI
PCECP: Youkai Dochuki
Pcedaisakusen: Youkaidouchuuki
Video Game Den: YÔKAI DOCHÛKI
Maybe: Tales of the monster path
I just know it as Shadow Land ;-)
lol, shadow land? never heard of that.
Youkai douchuuki / YŌKAI DŌCHŪKI
..is le correct :)

I believe the magazines (and mailorder/shops) in UK used that title.
sure? ever only heard of tales of the monster path.
Thanks for the naming info for the Japanese version.
I am based in the UK and when I had used to work at a gamin store I knew it as Shadow Land. Probably as this was the name of the game in the Arcades when it got translated.

Anyone who enjoys these videos should consider buying the series on DVD. It's for sale in Japan and in the US (from the amazingly awesome Discotek Media).

Totally agree :-)
I remember the episode where he played Bonks Adventure. It was great when he encountered that glitch on the last stage.
Just watched through Saigo no Nindou. Respect, he cleared it in 2hrs 10mins :)

Wait until you see the episode for Strider (SuperGrafx). He clears it record time, too. :pcgs:
This is fun stuff. Always been too lazy to google it. Watching Saigo no Nindou, seems like a pretty fun game :mrgreen:
Wish I hadn't already spent soo much money, the DVDs would be cool to have :lol:

The Kato and Ken episode is one of my favorites and makes me want to pick up a CIB copy of the game.
