My current TV Obsession of the past few months has been MXC (Most Extreme Elimination Challenge) on SpikeTV: A Japanese Game Show Comically Dubbed and re-edited. When I Found out 2 Famicom games were released. I was ecstatic. You can get the ROM, but you need a power pad with side B Turned Upwards. Just get a NES-to-USB Converter, and you'll be playing "Sinkers and Floaters" , and "Wall Bangers" in no time

Could you go into a little more depth about this TV show. I haven't had cable for about 3-4 years! :oops:

MXC As i said was a Japanese game show. This games how was called "Takeshi's Castle" or "Fuun Takeshi Jou" In which contestants of 100 do crazy obstacles, like run over a set of 4 rolling logs without falling out,or run up a mountain while people roll large plastic rocks over a mountain, and they win prizes. All Aspects of the show hve been changed ,except for the footage. The newly modified characters are the wise commentator Vic Romano, the chicks-and-beer hungry sidekick Kenny Blankenship, and the incredibly perverted reporter Guy Ledouche. It's a real kickass show.

It's a very old show. I quite liked it, but it isn't on TV anymore (in Germany).
I also tried the games on an emulator, but 1 didn't work and the other one didn't make me want to play on. :wink:
I better like movies by Takeshi than games with him. 8)
(Has anybody seen Battle Royale? ... uncut version of course)

Cool site. 8)
There are really all the funny contests in this game.
I like the contest where they have to run over a pond and some of the stones are loose. :P

I haven't seen that show in a couple of years but seeing that site really brings back the memories. I loved how no matter how much pain the contestents went through they always came out with a smile on their face. It was like they thought; "I just ran pull pace into a brick wall, I'm bound to get on TV!". I didn't konw there were games made. Excellent!
