If you're a regular to this channel, chances are you already know that I love Konami's

Ganbare Goemon series.

At this point, I own nearly every Goemon game there is, only a couple away from a complete

collection, and I plan on covering each and every one in some form or another...speaking

of which, I'd better get on that, it's been a while.

Anyway, for video games that I really enjoy, I'm the kind of guy who likes to collect beyond

just the cart or disc.

For Final Fantasy or any kind of Nintendo series, it's pretty easy to find memorabilia

in the form of figurines, music CDs, clothing, and the like.

But for other properties, this is simply not the case.

Konami produced a lot of goods for the Gensou Suikoden series, but it's tough to be a fan

trying to collect for it, as Suikoden merchandise can be pretty hard to come by for some reason,

even online.

So imagine how much more difficult it must be to find anything related to Ganbare Goemon

that's not a video game.

Little things like eraser figurines are often plentiful and pretty cheap, but music CDs

are another story altogether.

Even if you're lucky enough to find one, be prepared to shell out over a hundred, sometimes

even over a thousand dollars just to be able to keep one of these hard-to-find discs on

your shelf in its laser-grid protected, glass display case.

But thanks to EGG Music Records, you can now own a large chunk of the Ganbare Goemon game

soundtracks in one convenient box set.

Released on May 26th, 2017, the Ganbare Goemon Sound Tamatebako Original Soundtrack Box is

a collection of the complete musical scores to 16 classic Goemon games and one bonus track

from a non-Goemon title, spanning 10 discs in all.

These titles include the arcade original Mr. Goemon, the MSX2 and Famicom editions of Ganbare

Goemon: Karakuri Douchuu, Ganbare Goemon 2 on the Famicom, Ganbare Goemon Gaiden 1 and

2, also for the Famicom, the first four Game Boy and Game Boy Color Goemon releases, the

four main Ganbare Goemon Super Famicom games, and the Super Famicom Ebisumaru puzzle game

spinoff.

The bonus track featured in this set is Goemon's theme from the Game Boy Advance Japanese launch

title Konami Wai Wai Racing, known as Konami Krazy Racers outside of Japan.

With 8- and 16-bit being the theme of this compilation, the absence of Ganbare Goemon:

Seikushii Dynamites Arawaru for the Game Boy Color is a particularly noticeable omission.

The ten CDs are held in five jewel cases housed in a sturdy outer box with some pretty cool

and colorful art.

I really like the sprite versions of Goemon and Ebisumaru as well as Impact peaking out

from the top and bottom sides.

The large spine card with the soundtrack list on the back is too big to store inside of

the box without bending, so I have a feeling most people are just going to throw it away.

The jewel case designs are simple and attractive, though the cover is just as single sheet of

printed paper.

Instead of liner notes for each of the CD cases, the set comes with a mini booklet containing

track listings, a bit on the history of Ganbare Goemon, mini OST reviews of each of the games

featured, and lists of all the Goemon titles as well as other games featuring the titular

hero or the series' iconic music.

For a fan of Ganbare Goemon, this box set is a dream come true.

The price tag is pretty steep, however, retailing for 14,500 yen plus tax, which amounts to

about 150 dollars U.S.

But when you take into account that with these CDs you'll get a total of 657 individual music

tracks, and an original pressing for over half of these games' soundtracks would probably

cost you more than that anyway, the price is quite reasonable.

Sure, you could just download or listen to these songs for free online, but it's nice

to have this option available, whether it be for collector's reasons or just to kick

back and listen to the music on an actual CD player.

The games themselves have aged very well for the most part, and there are only a few less

than stellar entries in the series, but one thing that always remained pretty consistent

among the Ganbare Goemon games is its excellent, timeless music.

Some of my favorite video game music tracks come from many of the games found in this

CD collection, though it is a shame it only covers up until the Super Famicom and Game

Boy Color eras.

Fingers crossed for a second compilation that includes the rest of the games—it would

be worth it just for the amazing music from the N64 games alone.

I pre-ordered this box set months before its release directly from EGG Music Records' online

store, amusement-center.com, which sent a brochure of its products and services along

with the CDs.

In addition to an amazing selection of popular and obscure video game soundtracks, they also

have a classic game download service called Project EGG that I might have to check out

sometime soon.

And something I'll also have to do soon is work on another Ganbare Goemon episode of

Import Gaming FTW!

So until next time, this is Jimmy Hapa saying to buy this CD set if you're a fan of the

Goemon series...maybe Konami will finally get some sense and do something with this

fantastic franchise again if they see that people still absolutely love these games.

We can only hope.

Anyway, take care.

Big Brother's Imran gets a bit too excited after cosying up to wife Sukhvinder in bed - Duration: 2:37.

Big Brother's Imran gets a bit too excited after cosying up to wife Sukhvinder in bed

Theres nothing quite like knowing that Big Brother is watching to help cut sexy times short. And thats exactly what housemate and husband Imran had to deal with last night.

As the Channel 5 bosses played sexy sax music over the top of the pair in bed for viewers amusement, the married couple were kissing and totally Marvin Gaye-ing in true Shawn Mendes style.

While the other housemates lay in bed having to listen to them lock lips with unimpressed blank faces, Sukhvinder was calling Imrans name in a flirty manner.

She went on to tell him that they were going to have a beautiful day before he jumped out of bed holding his crotch and heading for the bathroom.

As he ran out of the room leaving Sukhvinder in bed alone she lay laughing to herself while the other housemates were probably thanking their lucky stars that he didnt go any further.

Just the night before the couple were pretty much polar opposite as they wreaked havoc in the house having a lovers tiff regarding a bottle of stolen wine which had been hidden in the hot tub.

Things escalated when Imran told her not to hide the booze due to the problems it was causing – but Sukhvinder became increasingly agitated, with things really kicking off after he told her to 'calm down'.

This of course being a sure fire death wish phrase for anybody in a relationship. Sukhvinder was soon shouting, 'No, no no, don't tell me to f*****g calm down, don't tell me to calm down.

Imran tried to explain that he was trying to be open with her after hearing a conversation between the other housemates about the stolen alcohol, but this only led his wife to kick off even more.

She snapped: Are you f**king serious? You think I'm here for f**king alcohol? Don't come for me. Who knew married life with 24 hour surveillance would be so tough?. Big Brother continues tonight on Channel 5 at 10pm.

Neighbour BIT a chunk out of woman's cheek in vicious row over milk - Duration: 2:06.

Neighbour BIT a chunk out of woman's cheek in vicious row over milk

** WARNING – GRAPHIC IMAGES BELOW **. Care worker Danniella Farrow, from Hull, said she didnt feel a thing until her daughter screamed theres a hole. Hazel Gill and son Michael were found not guilty of wounding with intent.

Ms Gil, 36, convinced a jury that she used her gnashers as self-defence – and she was allowed to walk free. Ms Farrow, 37, needed facial reconstruction surgery for the horrendous wound which left a flap of skin hanging from her face.

She said: It is horrendous and I can see people looking at it – it is on my face so obviously it is very visible. I feel like a freak now. I am disfigured for life.

Every day I have to relive what happened and I am sick and disgusted that she has got away with it. Ms Farrow and her teenage daughter were at a friends house in Hull, East Yorks, when she asked for a coffee.

As the friend didnt have any milk in, Ms Farrows 13-year-old daughter went to ask a neighbour for some.

But – according to Ms Farrow – the 36-year-old neighbour stormed out of her front door swinging and punching. Ms Gill shouted, someone was banging on my door, Hull Crown Court heard.

Suddenly Ms Farrow saw a pair of eyeballs close to her face as Ms Gill bit her.

When cops arrived, they searched the street for the missing chunk of cheek. Shaken Ms Foster said: I had never seen this woman before in all my life.

During the attack all I saw was this set of eyes to my left – it happened so quick.

I didnt feel anything at first but my daughter screamed and shouted there was a hole in my face. In turn, Ms Gill denied any wrongdoing and told the jury she was headbutted and this caused her to black out.

She said: Me and my beautiful son have been telling the truth the whole time. All this about milk at half eleven on a school night on a Monday night.

The right verdict has been given and justice been done – I am not guilty. Ms Gill and son Michael, 20, were both cleared of wounding with intent and unlawful wounding, having denied any wrongdoing.
