Game videos

[Person]

Could you do videos about Japanese games, show how to play and give also instructions what anybody is able to play them. Is it good idea?

I think that maybe a lesson on phrases common in Japanese games would be nice, or maybe a list of words in PDF form...
I know that I ordered a game a while ago in Japanese, since it was written in all kana, and I thought that it might be a good way to practice. I didn't realize how... different from textbook Japanese... it was going to be.
I think that a little bit on Japanese common gaming phrases could be interesting (I am sure there are many people here who only want to learn Japanese to play games )
So yeah... a little information would be nice, but I wouldn't want JP101 to spend much time on gaming Japanese when the real stuff is what really matters IMO.

I think this is a good idea. Anything covering the gaming industry in Japan would be very interesting to hear! My original intent in learning Japanese was to play the many unique Japanese games that never make it to the American market, but it's become so much more than that. The language itself is so much fun to learn, the people are so nice, and the culture is very distinct, from the food to the scenery. It seems the more I learn about Japanese the more I want to learn. Anyway, good suggestion!
