In Japan, combinations of numbers can be written as words. This is sometimes used for dates. November 29, or 1-1-2-9 is read as "ii niku" meaning literally "good meat." As such Nov. 29 is known as "good meat day" in Japan. A nice unofficial holiday, where people are encouraged to visit their favorite yakiniku-ya. One chain, Gyu-kaku, released a strange, semi-advergame series on the PlayStation back in Sony’s glory days all about grill mastery.
It was 10 years ago today on November 26, 2015 that I registered this channel! The first video was recorded on November 29 and went live on February 16, 2016! Here we are a decade later! Truly hard to believe what you can do when you try! Just a small nod to today, but expect something special in a few months when GTV officially turns 10!
Happy Sonic 2sDay to everyone. Let's take some time to relive that magic day, back on November 24th, 1992. If you're stuck at some in-laws house on Thanksgiving, why not Airplay it up on the ol' TV after gramma falls asleep? Catch up with your awkward cousin from "Muh 'Intendo Household" you haven't seen in 15 years, watch it together and give yourselves something to talk about.
32 years ago on November 23rd, 1993 Sonic CD, Sonic Spinball and Sonic Chaos were all released (in the USA) on the same day! It's kind of like Sonic 2sDay only three times the fun! If you have not seen it yet, then why not relive those memories on "the day." If you have seen it, why not give it one more spin?
Released on November 22, 1994, the Sega Saturn is 31 years old today! In Japan, the Saturn was popular and one man, Segata Sanshiro, was a part of the fun, with a long series of TV CMs supporting 32-Bit Sega Power! Why not take a look at his life, which we all thought ended in 1998, when he sacrificed himself to save Sega, but then somehow.. didn't!
31 years ago On Nov 21st, 1994 Donkey Kong Country was first released in the USA! Though to be fair it was the 18th in the UK, 26th in Japan... Also the Sega 32X turns 30 years old today. Next-Gen add-ons went head to head with SGI rendering! I am sure you've seen the video by now, but if not, check it out! Pass it on to a friend and watch it again if you have some time. After that, pull out your old grey carts, or fire up NSO and play some DKC on its birthday!! 🎂 🍌 🙉
Community Spotlight! My friend Brandon, who I've known since my radio days in the '90s has his own channel! @RetroRoadTripOfficial All about stories from the golden age of Rock 'n' Roll! If that's something that interests you why not check him out and give his new channel a boost! This recent video is one of my favs, maybe you'll like it too!
Some very sad news this week, as Kazuki Motoyama, artist of the beloved KC Mario series has passed away at the age of 69. On this channel we loved his work! I've made about a dozen videos based on his work, and someday, all of them will be made into videos. May his memory and work never be forgotten!
For the last four years, there's been a video that covers the Anime ventures Sega undertook in the '80s and '90s. They always added games to The Mix, and some toys too! Each one was very interesting and a fun ride. The next video, coming in a few days keeps the tradition running with the 5th Anime series Sega produced based on one of their games. In the meantime, why not refresh yourself on how Sega even got into things other than games in the first place? The video all about Magic Knight Rayearth covers the media acquisitions the company made to make the production process much smoother. Also the game was announced in 1994 on the same day the Saturn was revealed, yet the US version became the last Saturn game, released long after Sega already turned out the lights...
