Nothing’s set in stone yet, he sampled a bunch of PS3/Wii games. Other titles sampled or highlighted by the staff include Mario Galaxy, Wii Fit, Opoona, Portal 2, The Last of Us or Rain. However, he did play Armored Core, Echo Night and Monster Hunter so a Souls game is not impossible IMO
Super@superfromnd.bsky.social · 2w agooh this is gonna be absolute torture for arino, new top 10 episode incoming
If you're sad about 7th gen games being allowed on the show now then maybe this eyecatch from the newest episode will cheer you up!
Wii and PS3 (and probably other 7th gen systems as well) game are now eligible for the challenges. Will Cameraman Abe see his beloved (adult) Sherry Birkin in the Resident Evil 6 challenge? That remains to be seen... (They held a viewer poll and I voted for lifting the ban, sorry!)
📣 NEW SUB! Game Center CX - Meeting to Decide on Unbanning Wii and PS3 [LocationScouts] pastebin.com/raw/251s0KP2 Make sure to watch the livestream in a few days (3PM JST August 23rd 2026). If you join the discussion, please be respectful, and don’t mention how you watch the show.
They did a whole bunch of 5th/6th gen games. A few Tokimemo games, Mario 64, Crash 1, Ape Escape, MGS, all PSX Resis, WarioWare, EDF1, Monkey Ball, both Space Channel 5s, Monster Hunter, MMBN, VF2, Smash Bros., etc. The very next episode is most likely Rhythm Heaven on the GBA.
Timrod@timrod.bsky.social · last mo.I'm not exactly up to date on raws, but have they even done that many PS1/PS2 games since those were declared retro?
📣NEW SUB! DVD Challenge #5 - The Tower of Druaga pastebin.com/raw/82PNgibb Is Druaga a metaludic experiment in single-player games as an inherently social and cooperative phenomenon or friendslop Pac-Man? You decide.
Uncs don't read. I repeat, uncs don't read!!! There will be a livestream on August 23rd where Arino and the show staff will decide if they should allow PS3 and Wii challenges going forward (presumably other 7th generation systems as well).
The newest episode has the best eyecatch yet.
(Translator’s note: genjin means caveman) New sub! Ep. #248 - Eat meat! “Bonk’s Revenge” pastebin.com/raw/mgyKux3y It is somewhat surprising that the team that came up with the likes of Keith Courage or Johnny Turbo didn’t go with something like TurboGranite 1600000 BC…
So there's a Scientific and Objective ranking of all the NES games making the rounds (although if that's what counts as Scientific and Objective, then you can call me a conspiracy theorist), but did you know that the GCCX staff conducted a similar experiment around Season 1? Here are their findings:
New sub! Ep. 244 - Welcome to Danger Town “The Adventures of Bayou Billy” pastebin.com/raw/05r4Ne0d If you want to go to a city in Louisiana, don’t try this one.
Just a litle heads-up since some people are getting the wrong idea: it's Tsuyoshi Kan, GCCX's producer and main narrator, not Arino. This MIGHT be a location scouting trip for the potential GCCX in USA 2 special later down the line, but nothing's been confirmed yet.

Whirlo is pretty much Prince of Persia meets Duck Tales meets Jump King. I would call it the "first precision platformer" but then I remembered that the likes of Super Mario The Lost Levels, Rick Dangerous or the first three Ghosts 'n Goblins predate it.
SuperNeku@superneku.bsky.social · 5mo agoJW a newly subbed GCCX episode, this time it's Whirlo AKA Xandra's Great Adventure for the SNES! @locationscoutsgccx.bsky.social Another one I've not played or heard of. Its a cute prequel to Valkyrie's Adventure, but very deceptive. As it looks tricky with the one hit kills and specific controls
No April Fool's release this year, but here's a fun fact about our favorite cameraman from the latest episode (DoDonPachi). (No actual plans to sub this one yet.)
That was just a bad joke, we don't have any concrete plans for the next Valentine's Day. I'm sorry if I got any of your hopes up. (now that I think about it, I should've listed Trojan too...)
@gunstarheroes.bsky.social · 7mo agoTokimeki 2 has been one of my most hoped for episodes!
February 2027 sub ideas: -Tokimeki Memorial 2 -Tokimeki Memorial: Girl's Side -Spanky's Quest
New sub! Ep. #227 - Fight the Zodiac signs! "Somer Assault" pastebin.com/raw/dQXVjiPZ Chief Arino entered a Showa-era candy store and said, "I cannot see anything. I shall open this one."
New sub! Ep. 359 - Welcome to the next level, Arino... "Ichidant-R" pastebin.com/raw/aZEK4GQm Bonanza Bros. should sue Wario for Copy-R-ight Inf-R-ingement.
What's your favorite LocationScouts release? strawpoll.com/e6Z2AdM8EgN (Please don't read too much into this, we're just curious.)
Back when we were starting out, we thought that two-parters would be too taxing to do and now we've done Megaman 5, Marchen Maze, the boat special, and are planning to do more in the future (I want to do Ape Escape and Clock Tower 2 this year, we'll see how things turn out). Never say never! (3/2)
LocationScouts@locationscoutsgccx.bsky.social · 8mo agoc) It's 3 hours long and our translators currently don't want to commit to anything that's over 2 hours to avoid burnout or long periods of radio silence from us. And before any of you ask, our translators won't budge on doing full Messe/Saitama shows (3h each), just the 1h cuts. Sorry, I've tried!
