GOTM August 2024 GotM Discussion (Only in Japan)

[Random Encounter]

---

Breaking from our usual tradition of covering specific games and series for our Game of the Month, in August we'll be bringing you a theme instead! The idea is to feature games that never got a release outside of Japan. Ideally, I would like to bring you guys a different game each night that we stream, but I'm not opposed to playing a game that may take up a couple of nights.

I have a pretty comprehensive list of games set aside that I think you'll enjoy, but I'd be happy to take any suggestions you can think of. I think you guys will be in for a treat, and I can't wait for August to come around to share some exotic titles with you folks!

For those of you who may be wondering what to expect this Thursday, I'd like to leave a hint:

[Random Encounter]

I'm glad everyone enjoyed the Cho Aniki stream so much! It was a lot of fun to put it on for you. Here's a hint as to what to expect this Monday:

[Althena]

I adored the Cho Aniki stream! I'm scarred for life and I like it!

[Random Encounter]

Wondering what's to come tomorrow? Here's another clue!

[Althena]

I have to say, I'm really loving the creativity and surprises you are bringing each stream! Even though you kicked my ass in Endless Waltz

During the 90s, arcade games taught us a very important lesson:

But on tonight's Only in Japan stream, we are going to break from this traditional wisdom for a transcendent experience you won't find in any other game. What does that even mean, you wonder? Tune in and find out!

[Random Encounter]

What's coming up tonight, you may wonder? A hint:

[Selbaek]

Ah, a fellow firey redhead!

[Random Encounter]

Heads up, there won't be a GotM stream on Monday as I will be out of town. Althena is planning on streaming on the VG channel instead, so tune in and check it out!

[Random Encounter]

We're more than overdue for another stream night! Here's a hint (as well as my current mood) for the next game:

The illustration looks like someone tried to make a chimera out of Mario and Link then put them in blue stripped pajamas.

[The Grimace]

Akira Toriyama... Dragon Quest? I still haven't played any DQ. Looking forward to tonight's stream!

[Random Encounter]

As much as I'd love to keep playing Fushigi no Dungeon (I enjoyed it greatly!) we have one more game left to cover for our series. This may be the most oblique hint of all, but can you figure out which game it'll be?

[The Grimace]

Torneko's Mystery Dungeon was pretty cool, I could tell you were having a blast with it lol
Not sure what this could possibly be outside of something golf-based.
