Hands-on with Go! Go! Nippon! ~My First Trip to Japan~

Let's visit Japan! It will be fun! It will be educational! There will be toilets! There will be dating! There will be WcDonalds! There will be nudity!

In all seriousness, this IS rather educational and informative if you can get past the unnecessary dating and romantic story stuff that has been mixed in. It's billed as a "guidebook in game format" and it can actually be quite enjoyable if you pay attention and aren't screwing around trying to create something for the sake of cheap entertainment like I did here.

Go! Go! Nippon! ~My First Trip to Japan~ is available now through Steam for $4.97 on special (normally $9.95).

  EDIT: AAh, it's also for recording. Is it better than Dxtory?
  
  I've tried Dxtory on various occassions over the past couple of years. I hate it. Just having to find appropriate codecs to get a balance of quality and file size sucked. Once I found something that supposedly worked, the container format didn't work in Premiere, so I lost a lot of footage as a result.
  
  OBS, once configured, is fantastic. I get great quality with low-ish file sizes (at least compared to FRAPS' uncompressed nonsense). I've only run into a couple of games that it didn't recognize (Nether and I think one other one).

  I watched your review and laughed so hard I cried. That was awesome.
  
  I've been watching lots of anime lately and am actually interested in checking this out. It looks like a book with illustrations basically, not much 'game' to it, but it's cheap enough and interesting enough it'd be worth 'playing' once.
  
  Do wish there was some voice acting or more scenery/graphics, though. =P
  
  It's informative if you actually stop to read the text, I'll give it that.

  You should get an nVidia card and use ShadowPlay. It's awesome.

  I tried it, once, a few driver updates ago. It stopped responding about 3 seconds after I started testing. I uninstalled it and the GeForce Experience shortly after and never re-installed them again in any subsequent driver update I've done.
  
  I might try it again next driver update though. Then again, OBS apparently has the ability to capture using the special Nvidia codec/process as if I were using ShadowPlay, so maybe I'll try that instead.
