From a variety show broadcast in Japan, "ウッチャンナンチャンの炎のチャレンジャー これができたら100万円!!" (Ucchannanchan's passionate challenger, ready for 1 million yen!), its main project "電流イライラ棒" (Irritating Electric Rod) was faithfully recreated as a game. With the analog stick, move the rod to the goal in time without touching the course boundary or obstacles. This game was only sold in Japan.

Nicovideo 60fps encodes:link
YouTube 30fps encodes:link (This game plays at 60fps, so 30fps is not exact.)

About this movie file:

  • Since this game does not have a credit roll, I end input after name screen.
  • Considering it is a speedrun from beginning to end (finished name screen), each individual course is not the fastest time.
  • There is a scene where we select the rod that influences movement speed. I choose the second fastest rod to use, the gold rod.
  • The fastest rod is a hidden item: When all courses are cleared with gold rank or higher, it unlocks the fastest rod Diablo. This TAS cannot use it.
  • For these criteria, refer to Nicovideo RTA (speedrun) videos: link

Sorry, but I found this run boring to watch, and didn't see any merit in TASing a game of this type. Voting no.
No.

OH THIS GAME. Okay. - For technical I give it a hell yes... - For entertainment I give it a no... I wanted to see this game done... even though I knew it wasn't going to be entertaining. Meh Vote (VAULT). The PS1 version had speed limits and stuff correct (Speed 1 - 5)?

An N64 version of the electrified wire loop carnival game. That concept was clearly not going to be very entertaining, since it lacks none of the elements of a traditional game. There's barely anything to see, but lots of annoying voices to hear! Definitely a TAS to watch on mute. A definite No for entertainment.
TASing or playing back a DOS game? Make sure your files match the archive at RGB Classic Games.

A very nice technical achievement, but not even remotely entertaining.Very fitting for the vault. Voted no on entertainment.

Technically it's impressive. This is pretty much a Vault run is.

I've heard of this game before, but man, it looks boring as hell. It's basically a poor man's racing game with a ball. Way to go, Japan.

Glitchy TAS of 2013 Gameboy TAS of 2013 PSX TASer of 2010
This TAS is funny, even if the game is rather simplistic. The voices progressively go crazy as the TAS speeds through the courses. This game is also weird. That, and because of Japanese interests, is probably why this video has 175K views on Nicovideo. (The average uploaded encode of a completed TAS of a game, I think, gets about 15K views on Nicovideo.)

No, it is a racing game with a rod. (Even though it might as well be a ball from looking at the gameplay.)

Based hopper not playing/watching many Japanese arcade type games before (I could look for more but meh). I'm saying your vote doesn't count for being bias (trust me I was going to write another word down instead of bias).

I don't know how this game works, but it looked like a really good technical achievement, as Spikestuff said. Good job, asutoro! I will also vote Meh.

There are many negative opinions. It is unavoidable. It is a link to movie of the program used as the origin of the game. http://youtu.be/aRVzy8vytMg?t=1m22s 否定的な意見が多いですね 仕方ないことです。 ゲームの起源となった番組の動画へのリンクです。
Operation related to TAS of N64/GC/Wii/PS2 emulator is often investigated.

The real-world version looks interesting and fun! When this gets published, I think there should be a link to that video in the description since it makes it so much easier for viewers who aren't familiar with the type of game to understand what's going on.

I give it a strong yes vote for the game’s dumbness.

That announcer needs to take a chill pill... Gameplay looked precise, so perhaps vault this one.

Ha, I remember the real-life version airing on DSF (now Sport1, which is supposed to be a German sports channel) as Sports Bakka (the Japanese in their title card reads スポーツ　バカ, mind you) in the title card) back in the early 2000's. Anyway, on the technical side, this was indeed really impressive. On the entertainment side, considering I watched the show way before this TAS, I have to say it was a tiny bit entertaining. Clearly, those weren't the intended methods to solve the stages. I'll have to give this a Meh.
