This is one of the most bizarre video games i've ever seen, and so of course it must be Japanese.
The object of the game appears simple, you have to jam a big plastic finger up someone's rear end. Why? I have no idea.
Built into the cabinet is a bent over backside, and on the screen in front of you appears the expression of the person as you shove the finger inside. The harder you shove the finger inside, the more points you score.

From the brochure:

"This is a fun game of spanking the people that make your life miserable. When you spank the character that you choose to punish, the face expression of the character will change as they scream and twitch in pain. The funny face expressions will make people laugh and relieve stress."

Riiiight. Well in any case it has made me laugh. Although I don't understand why they call it "spanking", since you're actually shoving a finger in someones butthole.

More from the brochure:

"Characters include: Ex Girlfriend, Ex Boyfriend, Gangster, Mother-In-Law, Gold Digger, Prostitute, Child Molester, Con Artist."

It's sterotyperrific!

The brains of Japanese game creators took holiday for this one..

Imagine if that's what spanking actually entailed. There would be a much larger number of scarred children in the world.

haha. You wouldn't have happened to found this on a Stumble (http://www.stumbleupon.com) by any chance? I was just about to post it :).

Nah, I posted it months ago at www.urldj.com

A kancho video game...?

I bet that Az will have a harder time now, what with all the ichinensei being inspired to go for his ass by this game.

Wait a second... Maybe this is some sort of cleverly disguised way of training schoolkids in the Art of Kancho! :eek:

[KujiInRetsu]

If you'll notice, this game was praised at TGS 2000. I think Az had already felt the effects of the kancho trainer in action, considering he moved to Kyoto in 2003.

I hope they come out with a second one with better graphics, because those faces look so last-gen.

[Kiljou]

What the hell are you doing, worrying about the graphics?! Japan will soon rebuild its army - an army of kanchoing ichinensei, and take over the world! :eek: :eek: :eek:

[hapacheese]

Actually, the game is Korean. But they have Kancho in Korea, too.

[Kiljou]

...Oh. :p

I'd give it an 11 in control and 9 in tilt.

"Characters include: Ex Girlfriend, Ex Boyfriend, Gangster, Mother-In-Law, Gold Digger, Prostitute, Child Molester, Con Artist."

So... you get to kancho Child Molesters??? Yeah....

[h2orowe]

Dude! What the fuck!? Seriously.... I thought Donkey Konga and Eyetoy were weird...... I was wrong.... dead wrong.

[kshgosu]

Yes butt,did you play?

[MFDub]

Guys, you're not thinking about the implications here. If these kids are playing kancho in the arcade, they're not in the street sticking their fingers up strangers' butts. This is perfect! They can enjoy kancho and the rest of the world can go about its business without baggy pants.

[hapacheese]

Or... it's a kancho assassin training tool in disguise.

Imagine the sheer amount of force they'd be able to generate with a single kancho after devoting their Virtua Fighter obsession to something like this.
