  29. The Budokan Special is on this list with the unofficial SA Forum label of SP7.

  31.  
  32. The July 2013 Super Mario Bros. LIVE Challenge mentioned in the Budokan episodes is on this list as LE7. This label is what the
  33. SA Forum was expected to use for it. Errors in the English Wikipedia article could explain its omission from SA-GCCX guides.
  34.  
  35. Regarding game developers and GCCX staff members, we have decided to try to stay consistent with how these people romanize
  36. their own names in their professional lives. Many proper names on this list may differ slightly from how they appear in
  37. subtitles from the various translation teams. We will continue to deal with all proper names on a case-by-case basis.

  120. PREMIERE DATES: The daily cutoff time for determining dates in this list is 6:00 JST (6:00 AM).
  121. This is a slight change to our previous policy of using 4:00 JST. It should have little or no impact on our listings.
  122.  
  123. GAME NAMES: Either "Japanese Title (Western Title)" or "Japanese Title (Common Translation)" is how we list most untranslated
  124. broadcast episodes. After an episode has been translated, we usually adjust our listing to the title used by the translating team.
  125. In certain cases, such as with thorough rebranding or superficial overseas licensing, alternate titles may be listed in parentheses.
  126. The original Japanese game titles should be used by default when naming the raw broadcast episodes themselves. For material such as
  127. Nintendo Channel episodes featuring modern games with concurrent worldwide releases, we will tend to use the Western titles alone.
  128.  
  129. * = Not mentioned in SA-GCCX guides ^ = Incorrect details on other lists.
  130.  
  131. SA-GCCX doesn't distinguish between regular and "Director's Cut" versions of episodes
  132. in home video releases. We've decided not to mark those cases as omissions or errors.
  133.  
  134. This list uses official Fuji TV numbering for regular episodes and a modified version of SA Forum numbering for other episodes.
  135. Most specials not mentioned in SA-GCCX guides have been given lettered labels in this list. Some labels may be subject to change.
  136.  
  137. New Year's Marathons will be listed in their entirety for any year in which verifiable content listings are available.
  138. Currently, we're most interested in locating listings for any such marathons that took place during Seasons 15 and 16.
  139.  
  140. Arino's Challenge Archives are edited rebroadcasts of early episodes. Challenges featuring games with disputed or expensive
  141. licenses are usually skipped, so almost all Archives numbers do not correspond to the numbers of the original episodes.
  142. Archives for certain high-profile Konami games have been cleared to air, but those allowances are considered unusual.
  143. Confusingly, the cycle of episodes restarted with Archives 47, this time with different licensing restrictions.
  144. The only Archives episodes that we're including on this list are the ones featured in New Year's Marathons.

  149. SEASON [1]
  150. GAME CENTER 「CX」
  151.  
  152. The CX in the title comes from JOCX, the call sign of Fuji TV.
  153. Arino's Challenge began as a short segment in Season 1. Interviews made up most of each episode.
  154. ADs (Assistant Directors) introduced in Season 1: Naoki Yamada (M1 only) and Shinichiro Tojima (M5 onward)
  155. ADs typically "graduate" from the show after a season or two, but old favorites often return in new roles or on special occasions.

  1585.  
  1586. This section covers content published through the Nintendo Channel, Nintendo Video and Nintendo eShop online services.
  1587. Starting in late 2013, new releases could be viewed by a worldwide audience on Nintendo's Official Japanese YouTube Channel.
  1588. In June 2020, Nintendo deleted all of its Game Center CX YouTube videos starring Arino. The "Arino's Challenge" playlist
  1589. was renamed to reflect that it now contains only the "Game Center DX" videos starring Arino's comedy partner Hamaguchi.
  1590. Yoiko's gaming web series and guest appearances by Arino or Hamaguchi seem to be unaffected by this mass takedown.
  1591.  
  1592. See the bottom of this section for "Game Center DX" and all episodes in the "Yoiko's ______ ______ Life" web series format.
