[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Now thanks to this episode I've become a fan of the Laughing Salesman anime

[@thegreathadoken6808]

I heard the Laughing Salesman was looking for you, man.

[@TheTartKnight]

that makes two

[@ShaunRF]

I can't believe people are getting so bent out of shape about the ending skit.

[@GameSack]

Well only a select group are. I'm really not very worried about it.

[@PilGrimmm]

Game Sack I didn't even realise that there was an ending skit to any of the videos... Every time I hear "And thats it for today" I switch to another video. And I've been watching for years! The things you learn through angry comments..

[@GameSack]

RigBadWolf Now you have a bunch of new stuff to watch!

[@ShaunRF]

RigBadWolf You mean you've been missing out on their deliberately cheesy skits? For shame ;)

[@rerez]

It's a small touch but I am really loving that new 3D logo in the intro. :)

[@mylifeingaming]

I got Little Ralph off of JPSN because of the review that Dave did for Japan Prepaid while back. Amazing game!

[@MrLuciusrm]

the dude you are giving flower in uruseyatsura, is really a girl.her name is ryonusuke and she dress as as boy because her father forced her to live as a male and she dont know a lot about gender difference... she is one of the funniest characters in the show

[@mr.nobody7958]

Ugh...

[@azzypics]

Please do episode on FM Towns Marty. This 'thing' would be interesting.

[@Harperlarp]

God I hope The Game Chasers(?) don't do any more cameos. Painfully unfunny making nuts jokes nine year olds would make. And that remark about men lining up around a giant cereal bowl with their nuts hanging over the side, really? Is he a child or just gay because that was about as unfunny as you can get, it was unpleasant to listen to. Unfortunately really brought the whole episode down IMO.

[@Eddyinjapan]

I second that Harperlarp, men in their 40's making disgusting penis and gay jokes just doesn't sit right for the more mature and light heated tone Game sack usually has. I know they probably did it with good intentions but it came across a little homophobic as well, i hope they don't take game sack in that direction again.

[@AzureSymbiote]

That is worst ending skit so far. Worst part of an excellent episode.

[@captainkarnage9874]

Game Sack please no more gamechasers you guys are funny they are not

[@franco7363]

Yeah! It was hilarious!

[@eggycat]

Totally agree.

[@RetroCore]

Fantastic show guys. So glad you added Urusei Yatsura, dear my friends (That's what it says on the games title screen too). It's one of my all time favourite Mega CD games that I bought back in the day and still own now. Did you guys get the poster with yours?

[@GameSack]

Yes indeed. :)

[@thepirategamerboy12]

Game Sack Hang it up on your wall right now.

[@RetroCore]

Game Sack Good stuff. I take it you kept it nice and neat in the case :) I sure did but then again that's just me. By the way, have you ever played Dina Island on the Saturn? It's like Urusei Yatsura on the Mega CD and again it's by Game Arts but it's far more impressive. I have that plus the Yokoku Ken version - www.segagagadomain.com/saturn13/dinaisland.htm & www.segagagadomain.com/saturn18/dinosauryokoku.htm

[@GameSack]

Retro Core I'll have to check it out if it's even more impressive!

[@RetroCore]

Game Sack yes, you should. You'll really like it I think. I was so impressed by it when I first played the game.

[@PhilShary]

21:01 I like "Very No" even more than "Do Not Want!"

[@GameSack]

Me too! I tried thinking of some commentary to go with it but it really does speak for itself. I laughed when that came up on the screen as the boss died. I guess she really doesn't like dying.

[@Redhotsmasher]

"Very No"... Doge before Doge?

[@drseussisdeaddd]

I would love to play The Laughing Salesman in english or subtitled

[@DavetheNESGuy]

I've said this about 14 times now but Game Sack is the best show on KZbin. Great, well thought out and consistent content makes this show stand above the rest. The Game Chasers cameo at the end was hilarious. I also like how you got to stick in another review there Dave. I wonder what Joe thought about that. Officially, you gave 6 reviews to his 5 :) Cheers guys.

[@NagaTen]

Hi guys! Ane-san is actually a game about Bosozoku girls, sometimes called "yankii" (yes, japanized yankee) girls (aka, biker chicks). Bosozoku is a very japanese biker subculture that ran rampant for most of the 80's and 90's (and is actually still around in a more toned-down fashion) and obviously, wasn't limited to girls. Wikipedia actually has a decent page on this. Motorcycles customized in ridiculous fashion, huge pompadours, terrible perms, garish jackets and matching parachute pants are pretty common-place and they're portrayed a lot in older anime (Great Teacher Onizuka anyone? He started out in a Bosozoku gang.) The one-on-one faceoffs are probably two characters going for staring/insult contests, which is kinda typical too :P The game actually looks pretty fun! Thank you for showcasing it!

[@remka2000]

This subculture is slowly dying of old age, but still well alive in some parts of Japan. Come visit Shōnan and if you are lucky you might stumble upon huge bands of hundreds of bikers cruising slowly (and noisily) in the countryside at night 😊. I recommend Tsujidō or maybe Chigasaki.

[@ImportGamingFTW]

The Adventure of Little Ralph is one of my favorite Japan-only games and is one I covered in my import game series. If you play the game, make sure to go into the settings and change the difficulty from easy to normal. Doing this will make the game significantly more challenging--everything is a one-hit kill, and there are three extra levels, arguably the best in the game, as well as the true ending.

[@monos33]

Game Sack playlist all night in random mode !

[@PeteSkerritt]

Quick question for Dave: How did you find out about Twinkle Tale? I'd never heard of it before this piece, and it sure looks like it would be right up my alley... but you mentioned that you'd imported it awhile back. Also: I loved the ending. Guest features like that are always great, and I laughed a LOT at this one. I get that some might have been put off by the humor, but as a fan of everyone involved... I really enjoyed it.

[@tetrisdave]

Hi Peter, I found out about Twinkle Tale by reading different gaming forums on import games. Reading peoples reviews of import games and especially finding out which games can be played easily knowing little to no Japanese. I used to have a lot of time on my hands years ago and would just scour the internet.

[@fatimconteh1308]

i dav hope u are doing fine

[@AmberShort]

Urusei Yatsura Dear My Friends seems to be geared to a love/relations type of game from the text I've read in the video. It kind of reminds me of Tenchi to some extent but with a different comical plot. I've always imported and still do today. Some games that interest me will never see the light of day here in the states. Alot of my imported games are from the Super Famicon; mostly rpg's, Dreamcast, PSX and of course PS2/3. Also have an imported Vita, Wii and others. You need to discuss rpg's left in Japan. I have quite a bit. :>

[@GameSack]

The story does have a lot more to do with than just relationships. A kid sinks your house into the ground, people disappear, lots of people get physically hurt, etc.

[@AmberShort]

Game Sack Ahh. I have to read the whole plot. I am interested in playing it now.

[@GameSack]

***** "Sarah's mother takes over Sakura's body" That explains why she suddenly stopped sounding and acting like a man.

[@AlucardsQuest]

UY is like the great godmother of harem anime, where as Tenchi kicked it into high gear.

[@thepirategamerboy12]

Holy crap. Urusei Yatsura - Dear My Friends is in this episode! Not sure if it was because of my suggestion, but wow... To be honest, I'm surprised it was able to be reviewed at all. Also: 2:06 That's Fujinami Ryuunosuke, and that dude is actually a girl that's forced to dress like a man by her father. 2:58 That's Kotatsu Neko. As you can tell, I'm very familiar with the series. It's extremely funny, imo. I own the Mega CD game, but I didn't bother playing much of it due to it all being in Japanese. I need to try it out again, though, because I had no idea it actually had mini games in it.

[@MrDmoney156]

I'm a fan of the Anime too! And i definitely gotta get back into playing that as well since i am still stuck in the beginning of the game.

[@thepirategamerboy12]

MrDmoney156 I'm stuck at the part where you can go to Mendou's palace. I haven't figured out how to get past the guards, yet.

[@posey9573]

I didn't even realize that was her. Her design seems a bit off. The hair color?

[@thepirategamerboy12]

Posey I can tell it is her by her voice.

[@thepirategamerboy12]

MrDmoney156 Also, it's very nice to see other fans of the anime besides me.

[@Neogeofanatic]

Great video again. I also like the fact that your speaking is understandable even for a french guy like me ;)

[@hajimethefool]

Man I played so much of Nuts & Milk as a child. Thanks you Golden Game 260 in 1, you were my childhood

[@kyleparsonsart]

I discovered Game Sack a couple weeks ago by searching for Data East games. I love it! I've since watched every episode and gotten a couple of my friends to watch too. Keep making awesome videos! More Random game episodes would be cool, just talk about whatever games you want. I've even tracked down a copy of musha after seeing it featured on Game Sack. I saw it by chance in a lot of japanese megadrive games on craigslist and got a really good deal on it. Thanks for making me aware of it.

[@tetrisdave]

Thanks and we're glad you like our show. Glad to hear you found MUSHA for a low price. It's a great game with awesome music.

[@Vriess123]

Yeah more developer episodes sounds great

[@Chicomite]

Another Game Sack sub series that should never stop. Love these lists. I'm going for a complete set of all side scrolling platform / action on PS1 and I think I have all the American ones but the Japanese options are elusive. Little Ralph is currently at the top of my list and I have Panzer Bandit in the mail. Check out Puli Rula if you haven't(I think you guys did already ) and also Hot Blooded Family, a PS1 beat em up

[@tetrisdave]

Nice! Thanks for the recommendations. I will check those out.

[@jotabe777]

Love your channel guys, every video is a gem, keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing.

[@tetrisdave]

Thanks and Thanks for watching!

[@graphicsontelevision]

Nice! I found your show only like a week or two ago, so this is my first "real time" episode. I've already watched most if not all of your other Left in Japan episodes, so I was stoked to see a new one. :) Lots of interesting and/or fun looking games in this episode. I think I'll have to grab Harmful Park off of PSN. Thanks for the introduction!

[@tetrisdave]

Sweet and thanks for watching!

[@garou119]

Awesome Episode That laughing salesman game looks very creepy.

[@BlackBeWhite2k7]

I think the Laughing salesman is going to be the most fucked up retro anime I will ever watch every single episode of now...

[@AzizidarkReborn]

Oh shit, you can get Harmful Park and Little Ralph on the Japanese PSN store? That's sick.

[@underthepale]

Based on what I can piece together, Laughing Salesman is supposed to be a comedy. Wikipedia classifies it as horror. I think it's just more what happens when the Doraemon guys have too much to drink.

[@90sgamer92]

Man that point&click game looks good, those visuals are far above Snatcher, Monkey Island and Rise of the Dragon. It looks more like a Saturn/PC game than something running on a 16 bit console. Full voice acting and 3 different minigames on top of that? That's amazing. I'd actually rate it alongside King's Quest 5 (1990) and Myst as one of the most visually impressive point clicks of the early 90s as far as pushing the limits of the hardware goes.

[@wo0zy.]

"There are no male sprites in the game at all" - 1 sec later a guy sitting in a restaurant or something :D 20:09

[@GameSack]

Wo0zy Well I dunno know if that's a guy, but I do know that it's not a sprite! :)

[@wo0zy.]

Game Sack ok, you win ;) I love your channel so much and enjoy like every video ♥ Big fan from germany

[@RichardCraig]

You people are no fun... I thought the Game Chasers' cameo was funny! I think the whole schtick was supposed to be them just being crass and immature while Joe and Dave were trying to do a "serious" show. You people need to stop taking things so seriously and just enjoy the show!

[@baguete02]

I just cant express how much I love your show guys. You are a retropedia of knowledge in gaming. There is always something new (and old) to discover. My backlog is getting bigger and bigger since I've started watching you guys. Keep up the good work.

[@tetrisdave]

Thanks! We're glad you like our stuff.

[@thebrammerhammer23]

I can't believe all you people getting butt hurt about the ending joke. I thought it was hilarious and I love the The Game Chasers channel so having them appear on Game Sack was pretty cool. Maybe all you people should check your nuts at the door and go drink so milk.

[@ChipRichey]

That salesman will forever give me nightmares.

[@adoseofpain]

Finally caught up to Game Sack... What a very enjoyable month of entertainment!

[@neoasura]

I just want you guys to know, Im a super fan of the work you gentleman do. I love the fact you guys hit on the 90s retro gaming which not too many people seem to do these days (most are all about the NES, etc) which was my peak gaming time. Keep up the good work, and I hope another retroware gaming video year is under works :)

[@Tolman18]

People who are complaining about the nut jokes at the end, you do realize that this channel is based on a nut joke, Game SACK!!! Lighten the fuck up please and thank you. :)

[@frankschneider6156]

Absolutely great episode. One of your best. Fantastic game selection with a great variety of rather obscure games noone has ever heard of. This has everything why i love Gamesack. And i have to agree with Dave, Harmful Park is surely an outstanding cute'emup. Never understood, why it didn't come over. Did i already mention, how great this episode was ? Hope to see more Left in Japan episodes in the future.

[@tetrisdave]

Thanks!

[@DanPantzig]

Damn, guys, I just played and finished Adventures of Little Ralph two nights ago, then this! Outstanding episode.

[@GT6SuzukaTimeTrials]

How old are you dudes? I'm glad there are gaming channels hosted by people older than me (I'm 30)

[@Zeldaschampion]

There another channel that has the original programmers from Sierra reviewing games and they are in their 40's. PC and Atari gaming started in the 1970's with those people still playing games to today.

[@GT6SuzukaTimeTrials]

What channel is that?

[@Zeldaschampion]

MetalJesusRocks. I am hoping one of these days Gamesack and those guys do a collaboration show. BTW if you don't know Sierra was one the original companies to make PC games. I believe they are also the company that invented the point and click genre too.

[@GT6SuzukaTimeTrials]

I'm already subscribed to metal jesus. He was a programmer? Didn't know that. I do remember Sierra, but I preferred LucasArts point-and-clicks.

[@Zeldaschampion]

Yeah most of the guys that appear on the show worked for Sierra. Example, Drunken master Paul, that guy that looks like Robert Downey Jr, can't remember the other guys names.

[@terencehill2320]

I love the Laughing Salesman anime. I bought the 400 dollar DVD box set and this show is Def fucked up but awesome

[@n0isyturtle]

I blame you guys for getting me into SNES imports, my wallet has been begging for mercy the past few months! I'd highly recommend picking up Gurume Sentai Barayarou and Ghost Chaser Densei _(although it doesn't even hold a candle to the arcade version)_ if you enjoy beat em ups. Some of the best on the system! Have you ever noticed that every game with the word _'Twinkle'_ in the title sells for $100+? Weird phenomenon.

[@tetrisdave]

Thanks and sorry about your wallet. I haven't thought about your theory on games with "Twinkle" in the title. I should look into that.

[@MrDmoney156]

Some of the Japanese SNES/SFC Casino games are pretty fun. As well as Kawai no Nsuri 2 (Legend of the River King 2) and that Namco Snowboarding game as well, and First Queen is pretty decent once you get the hang of it.

[@misterkeebler]

On the flipside, if you are willing to buy imports of games that were released in the US, you can get some excellent deals compared to buying their US counterparts. The Megaman X series is a great example, as those are super expensive on Ebay now but the japanese versions arent nearly as bad.

[@the_platinum_wizard867]

So $&@!ing true! True they don't point a gun and force us to buy these games but...let me tell you

[@TheGameChasers]

9:11 totally reminds me of Super star Wars

[@smokeglacken]

great episode guys! loved the game chasers cameo at the end! I'm a proud Game Sack Patreon supporter!!!

[@tetrisdave]

Awesome and Thanks!

[@CampingMIG]

Best left in Japan yet. Thanks guys! So many great games people don't even know exist.

[@Zeldaschampion]

Dave doesn't like isometric? Has he ever played Landstalker?

[@tetrisdave]

Yes he has. I can play some isometric games just fine and that would be one of them. Others are just annoying.

[@90sgamer92]

David White Isometric is a necessity for having a tactical battle system, which is why besides strategy games many old computer RPGs used isometric view for battles as well. But outside of turn based and real time with pause games isometric sucks, it has no place in a platformer or other action games.

[@tetrisdave]

90sgamer92 That's exactly right. If you have time between turns in a battle to strategize then I don't mind isometric. When I'm trying to platform in a isometric game that's where the fun stops.

[@tetrisdave]

I don't hate them I just get annoyed when I play them.

[@Wyrdwad]

Great episode as always! Glad to see you cover Little Ralph -- that game is fantastic. I actually have kind of a collection of Japanese PS1 games (I used to buy used Japanese PS1 games every weekend when I lived in Japan), so I have a few more suggestions for you if you're interested (and do accept my apologies if I've suggested these before, as I very well might have!). All three of these can be found on J-PSN. こみゅにてぃぽむ (Community POM) Basically a super-cute Zelda-like with a little bit of Tamagotchi thrown in. You control a 12-year-old pigtailed shepherdess named Lulu, and your goal is to save these cute little sheep-like creatures called Poms. But not only are you saving them, you're also building a little Pom city, where the Poms can grow crops, build shops, etc. And you can take up to three Poms with you on your journey and have them do things for you like breathe fire, extend their tongues to form bridges, become rafts to let you sail across the water, etc. It's a little unbalanced, but it's a really fun game with a great look, a super-fast pace, and great music (though some of the music is very clearly plagiarized -- the boss theme is ripped straight out of Dragnet, and the overworld theme is basically a sped up version of the Delfonics song "La La (Means I Love You)" for some reason). アディのおくりもの (Addie no Okurimono / Addie's Present) Search for the English title on KZbin to see some footage I uploaded with English subtitles, or hear some of its in-game music. I absolutely fell in love with this game after playing it. At it's core, it's kind of like a cross between a puzzle RPG and a point-and-click adventure (or kind of like a proto-Professor Layton, if you want to think of it that way), but instead of fighting enemies, you perform word puzzles where you're trying to change one English word into another in order to change one object into another -- for instance, the first puzzle has you trying to change CAGE into BELL in order to free a boy from a cage by transforming that cage into a bell so he can drop out the bottom. Although the story is in Japanese (and it's actually a REALLY good story!), all the word puzzles are in English, so once you learn the rules, you can play this game no problem through trial and error. You will be missing out, though, because I honestly really think the story and characters are exceptional, and they're the real reason I came to love this title so much. ロビン・ロイドの冒険 (Robin Lloyd no Bouken / The Adventures of Robin Lloyd) A somewhat early GUST title, and one of their best in my opinion. This one is pretty tough to play if you don't speak Japanese, but worth the effort, as it's just a really cool tongue-in-cheek detective game. Most of the game is spent wandering around locations, talking to people and examining clues (which literally has you manually spinning 3D objects, zooming in on them, etc.) in order to get items that you need to use in specific spots to advance the story, but then when you do advance the story, you get crazy minigame boss battles, or 3D dungeon segments, or all kinds of other cool unexpected things that help give the game a lot of variety. Part of its charm, though, is just how goofy it is -- I mean, one of the bosses has your dog (who wears a suit and is named Butler) driving a convertible with a cannon mounted on its hood, while you're aiming the cannon and trying to take down a tank. If that's not awesome, I don't know what is!

[@tetrisdave]

Nice. Thanks for the suggestions I will check them out.

[@Wyrdwad]

A few others worth looking into are Napple Tale: Arsia in Daydream for the Dreamcast, Dream Mix TV: World Fighters for the PS2 and Gamecube, and Coloball 2002 for the PS2 (which I have some extensive gameplay videos of on my channel). All three of these are playable by non-Japanese speakers, but none of them are on PSN or anything, so you'd need to track down physical copies.

[@theshadyjayshow]

nuts

[@KawaiiGames]

thank you for pointing so many great unknown games

[@sakusakusakuranyo]

This is a great show!

[@jinpaul11]

This made me watch the whole laughing salesman anime.

[@ProtoMario]

Hey man what another great episode, I am always down for helping you guys out!

[@Loungeroomuk]

Game Sack - best gaming channel on KZbin, best intro music. Nuff said.

[@AirZonkWorldChamp]

Ohya, everyone loves AirZonk!

[@tetrisdave]

LoL. Your name says it all.

[@AirZonkWorldChamp]

I kinda like it, eh?

[@AirZonkWorldChamp]

The rom on my HuCard works fine.

[@MagmaMKII]

Here's some games you should definitely cover on a next video: * Famicom: Getsu Fuuma Den, Higemaru Makaijima, Joy Mech Fight, King Kong 2, Moai Kun * Super Famicom: Front Mission Gun Hazard, Ganpuru, Majuu Ou, Marchen Adveture Cotton 100%, Shin Nekketsu Kouha Kunio Tachi no Banka, Super Genjin 2, Super Ninja Kun * PC Engine: Cho Aniki and Ai Cho Aniki, Download and Download 2, Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire, Mugen Senshi Valis, Rayxanber II and Rayxanber III * PSX: Bomberman Wars, Front Mission 2, Gunner's Heaven, Internal Section, Panzer Bandit, Real Bout Special Dominated Mind, Slap Happy Rhythm Busters, Sonic Wings Special, Zanac X Zanac

[@timthompson8235]

Watched it months later while on mushrooms, and the guys at the end are still unfunny, lame ball jokes and what a dees nuts joke. 1999 called they want their stupid unfunny jokes back.

[@Michirin9801]

Hey Joe, have you heard that there are more Sega 3D classics coming to the 3DS? I think it would be really nice to have an episode on those games... After Burner 2 came out just recently on the eShop, and Outrun is coming too!

[@TheGameChasers]

[@GameSack]

Nuts on your sundae.

[@ebru5716]

+Game Sack Nuts on your icecream

[@drew6874]

+Game Sack did you use the Japanese PSN gift card to download games from the Japanese PSN?

[@GameSack]

drew6874 Yessiree!

[@AlucardsQuest]

Wow that Urusei Yatsura game looks great! Better than the Famicom game for sure. For people who don't know, Urusei Yatsura is pretty much a God among Anime & Manga. Pretty much every comedy Anime after it was influenced by it, and you might call it the godfather of the harem Anime... although that's not the focus. Also it was the artist's precursor to Ranma 1/2 & Inu Yasha. You can even see it's influence in new cartoons like Bee & Puppycat! I would suggest people check it out, but the DVDs are out of print. Hopefully they bring over the bluerays from Japan!

[@Pensive_Scarlet]

Harmful Park! :D I love titles like that. It immediately makes you wonder just what's going on, what kind of game it is, etc. I love the tiny pies you get to throw at enemies, as well as the tiny ice cream cone options. :3 I really wish Lunar Magic School got more love. In fact, the Lunar world as a whole could use a couple more spin offs like that. It was one of the earliest things I remember that used the whole "magic school" concept, and with the increasing popularity of it these days (it's basically a genre now thanks to Harry Potter) I think a whole new Lunar story focused around the city of Vane would really catch on. Can't believe I've never heard of Twinkle Tale. It has so many aspects I love. It looks like the closest thing there is to a twin-sticks shooter on a non-sticks platform. XD Whoa, a second Fortified Zone on the Gameboy! :0

[@SamuraiSam]

Great episode! Obviously it's great to hear about import games that I'm not familiar with, but I also enjoy it when you guys give impressions about games I already have! I was fortunate to get physical copies of Harmful Park and Little Ralph without breaking the bank. Harmful Park is definitely one of my favorite shmups (I wrote its only review on Gamefaqs), I'm glad to see it get more love!

[@SonofTiamat]

Dude, Front Mission 3 has such an amazing soundtrack. Coincidentally, I was actually replaying that. Titanfall made me want to replay more big robot games.

[@YTP1137]

Middle finger lasers seem like an awesome idea. Make it real. It should totally be real.

[@bald_engineer]

Really enjoy this series. I'm heading back to Japan in a couple of weeks and plan to hit up the retro shops while I'm there. You guys have given me a great shopping list with this series.

[@jreddtrex1618]

I'm laughing at the very idea that some people are surprised that a show called Game Sack made some off color jokes about a video game called Nuts & Milk. Just sayin' :P Now if you'll excuse me, I have some Sega Genesis music to compose...or something :P.

[@kennylauderdale_en]

That's a really solid review of the laughing salesman game. Shame there's no fan translation.

[@mediaglitch]

TWINKLE TALE looks amazing. I have to pick that one up. Thanks for another awesome episode.

[@gaminggod5249]

Great show guys! For sure some rare titles I gave not heard of.....I have never tried to open a Japanese PSN account? Will that work on a USA system? I would like to try that first shooter you showed. I normally hate digital download but for 250? The might be an exception lol

[@tetrisdave]

Yes you can use a US PS3. Just google how to make a Japanese PS3 account. There's many tutorials out there. That's what I did.

[@gaminggod5249]

David White Thanks bro I will do that....

[@PowerHog]

Here are some suggestions for you guys to cover in future Left in Japan episodes: Cocoron Getsu Fūma Den Moon Crystal Cosmo Police Galivan Yume Penguin Monogatari Wai Wai World Akumajō Special: Boku Dracula-kun Holy Diver Crisis Force Rendering Ranger R2 Hamelin No Violin Hiki (Violinist of Hameln) Chō Jikū Yōsai Macross: Scrambled Valkyrie

[@Tolman18]

Adult 33 here and I love this episode. Game Sack David White you guys will never please everyone, but it's really important for you and Dave to both know that your true fans really appreciate and will always back you guys up, whether you have a great or not so great video. I for one haven't been disappointed ever, but make sure that you focus on the positive just as much as the negative that people post here. People don't realize how hard it is to continue a funny parody after each video. Just ignore the hate and keep up the great work!!

[@DomeCandyGames]

Nice "blooper" sequence :)

[@SonofTiamat]

Damn! That laughing salesmen guy is like Calypso from Twisted Metal. He just screws people over for his own amusement.

[@luisrada1137]

Great show guys. I'd like to see some underrated fighting games for the ps2, like The Rumble Fish, Segoku Basara Cross, Fullmetal Alchemist Fight Carnival, Melty Blood, Arcana Hearts, and more. Keep working!

[@reddestroyer9809]

Wow guys, amazing episode. You actually introduce me to something new and exciting, unlike most KZbinrs who just talk about the same games others have over and over... anyway I didn't mind the ending. I don't understand what's the fuss about, it was only a minute or two long which shouldn't bother you considering the episode is half an hour long. Looking forward to your next uploads.

[@iwonderifthisislegal]

I'm the first to comment? Awesome. You guys are awesomeness man. Love how much time and effort you put into your videos. I really enjoy these...and watch them all the time. I always have them playing while I'm studying for test, at work, working in the garage, etc. Keep it up guys....all the way from Las Vegas👍

[@nerdchannel6961]

New episode....YUP time for a snack or breakfast with my favorite show.......Its about a sack with games....Ahhhh i love gamesack!

You guys need to talk about Seiken Densetsu 3 the sequel to Secret of Mana that never made it stateside. There are fan translations available. One of the best features is that you choose three characters from a selection of six when you start the game and depending on what characters you picked and in what order will alter the game's story. Major replay value that's for sure. From what I hear the cancellation of the Snes cd drive it was originally made for delayed the release in Japan and a US release was scrapped after Square signed an exclusivity deal with Sony. Also, could you guys discuss the Wild Arms series? Not exactly left in Japan, but definitely a series that deserves more attention than it gets. Shame that Sony seems uninterested in continuing what was one of the founding series on the original PlayStation.

Some top notch games in this episode. Harmful Park is one of the PS1 I always dig up when I'm nostalgic, that and YoYo's Puzzle Park. Another game almost worthy of a spot in a future Left in Japan, I say almost as it came out in PAL territories.

I'm missing out so much for not speaking japanese. I'm certain I would have loved playing The Laughing Salesman.

[@TechieWidget]

I remembered seeing The Laughing Salesman on several Japanese drink commercials in the Tokyo Metro. I didn't know that was his name and he had an anime.

Just throwing the Game Sack Patreon link down here in the comments: www.patreon.com/gamesack I'm more than happy contributing a few bucks a month to Game Sack and invite others to do so; Game Sack rules!

Awesome video guys. I watched Left in Japan 1-5 first, I looked up and it had been almost four hours by the time I had watched all six parts! Thanks for being so entertaining.

[@jdfalcon08]

Magic School Lunar is the one game in your Left In Japan episodes I have played. The only reason I could play it was because you didn't have to obtain items (minus a couple of story related items you have to find). It has some interesting mechanics not seen elsewhere.

[@ianrangers]

Guys I loved your Data East episode can you please do more developer based episodes for example how cool would a Konami 1 be........😀

[@Trialwolf]

Ah Japan........... Great episode though, for a suggestion how about an episode involving games from one franchise that ended up getting placed into another franchise. For example when they got exported to another country or got altered during development.

[@seanmyster6]

For Left In Japan 7, would you cover Namco X Capcom, if you can/have already snagged a copy?

[@BeatmasterAC]

Shave yourself David. you look better and a lot younger without the beard :) Nice Episode as always. Keep it up

[@johnnypierce1526]

Urusei Yatsura: My Dear Friends looks like Shenmue. As always another awesome episode. When nothing is on tv i love watching old Game Sack episodes. :)

[@DrunkJackal]

I don't blame Dave for not liking isometric games. I think it's an awful look and it doesn't work naturally with a directional pad or even a control stick unless the gameplay uses a cursor for control or very little collision detection.

[@bozmanga1]

Your episodes just keep getting better and better. That end title music is awesome btw, had to replay it couple of times. It is always fun to see those silly Game Chasers, I am glad you included them, love their childish humor.

[@Shorai_3]

Finally. I now know the name of the shooter that featured the wedding in the background that I originally saw on X-Play. Harmful Park. Thanks, guys.

[@vinnie830]

Awesome video! And thanks a lot for telling about Adventures of Littler Ralph! Totally checking out!

[@MrJechgo]

Great episode you guys ^_^ I... can only name you 6 games that were left in Japan, that I know of: - Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan - Moero! Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii: Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2 (You know Elite Beat Agents for the DS? Well, these two are the Japanese versions, and the original versions at that.) - Jump Superstars/Jump Ultimate Stars - Sunday VS Magazine Shuuketsu! Choujou Daikessen - Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax (One's a SSB-style anime crossover, the next's a 2.5 anime crossover fighting game and the last's a 2D anime crossover fighting game... guess why they weren't localized XD )

[@RemixerUltimate]

Fatal Frame 5 as well. Not fair Nintendo.

[@truepace]

Thanks a lot for the entertainment and enlightening me on a few really good looking games. I especially liked the look of the Mega Drive game Twinkle Tale. I'm gonna get that. I wish I could read Japanese so I could get some of the other titles that were shown.

[@ViniVHSoares1993]

Well if that makes Dave feel better, Mark from Classic Game Room reviewed Nuts and Milk and the Game Chasers were not interrupting him.

[@AzureSymbiote]

One of the better Japan episodes but I didn't care for the ending skit. Although I finally remember playing Nuts & Milk.

[@PhilosopherGaming]

lol Nuts and milk, at 26 I shouldn't still be laughing at that, but screw it, I am. Great stuff as always.

[@truepace]

I like the way my favourite two videogame shows on KZbin feature cameos from both sides more and more, recently. I think dave shined at the end when he got super serious and pissed off ha ha.

[@Shawn__Martin]

I almost forgot whose video I was watching and stopped the video when the credits started rolling. I'm glad I didn't the best stuff always happens after the credits. Another great video guys thanks.

[@davidsantiagoalonso]

Great video... my fav series that's part of gamesack... well done. You have nuts on your cereal, you have nuts on your chin...

[@Ashura96]

If you haven't already, I'd like to see Getsufumaden on the Famicom on a future Left in Japan.
