Famicom Dojo: Episode 1 Commentary

with one comment

Famicom Dojo

No, it’s not Season 2 yet, but fear not! As we march inexorably forward toward the premiere, we thought we’d share a little treat with you off the new Season 1 DVD!

Check out the Famicom Dojo Video Netcast for a peek at the extras in store with the DVD version of Episode 1 — with commentary! Just a sample, though, since this is 1/6 of all the commentaries we have to offer, but far from the majority of special features.

Welcome to Famicom Denshimail, belated, but never too late!

This week we talk a bit about the homebrew Famicom/NES scene, and Vinnk reveals some info about a program to bring $10 computers to countries that can’t afford machines like One Laptop Per Child.

(Check out more information about the Playpower Foundation in the show notes.)

Welcome to Famicom Denshimail — the newest Famicom Dojo segment this side of Ursa Minor, here to answer all your questions about video games!

This week we show you how to hookup your Famicom to your TV and HDTV, however these instructions are for North American NTSC sets ONLY. There are many more considerations for PAL conversion which we hope to cover at a future time.

Plug into the future? Forget I said anything…

Takuya’s Game Reviews: Rockman

with 4 comments

In this installment, Takuya faces off against the Famicom game Rockman (released in the West as Mega Man). This was originally going to be the first game review by Takuya but we thought it was too short. It still is, but that kind of makes it funny. Takuya says he would be willing to make more of these but doesn’t know what game to do next. Please feel free to suggest any game that we have in stock at the store and we will make a list.
