Current mood: pleased
Current music:Cave Story - The Way Back Home

and the story's grand conclusion..!
Well! After a few communication mishaps.. we finally have word back from Pixel :)


Pixelです。
洞窟物語のキャラクターと「ありがとう」の刻印が入ったDSが届きました。
素敵な誕生日プレゼントをありがとう。これは僕の宝物にします。
(DSが届いたのは４月19日ごろです)

早速洞窟物語を動かしました。
問題なく動きました。
ちゃんと音楽も再現されてますね。
DSで動くってのはやっぱり不思議な気分です。

「有野の挑戦」と言うゲームもプレイしました。
懐かしい要素が沢山あるゲームですね。
僕は友達の家に入り浸ってファミコンをしていたので、
その頃のことをいろいろ思い出してしまいます。

本当に本当にありがとう！


As summarized by [info]ufo_z:

Basically he's very happy about the DS (his treasure!), and he's
feeling kind of strange to see Cave Story working on it so well.
Also he's loving GC:CX a lot, apparently it reminds him of hanging out
at his friend playing on the NES as a child.

So looks like all in all this was a triumph!

As our green toastery friend would say: Huzzah. :D

Thank you, everybody who contributed, either as a donation, or suggestions, or DS designs! :)

Great victory :D

Always nice to see someone rewarded for their art, I have to thank all of you as well, I couldn't contribute, sadly, but I'm glad to see this went through well, and that Pixel is enjoying it

Awesome. If you guys like, I can ask my friend (who knows Japanese) to give an accurate translation, but if it isn't necessary, that's fine too.

How's this?

This is Pixel. I received the DS with the etching of Cave Story characters and "Arigatou." What a wonderful birthday present. I will always treasure it. (It arrived around April 19th.)

I tried out Cave Story right away, and it worked no problem. Even the music is up and running. It's a strange feeling, seeing the game run on a DS.

I tried out "Game Center CX". It has lots of nostalgic elements. I used to spend hours at a time at my friend's house playing Famicom games, and this game brings me back to those days.

Thank you very very much!

Uhh, by Cave Story working well on it, do you mean the game or just, like, what you had laser etched on there?

I though there was only a demo version of it for the DS.

I assume he meant the demo.. there's still enough there to see running!

Speaking of which, what is the status of the Cave Story ds port? I haven't heard anything new about that for a while.

Game Center: CX is a game-centered TV show in Japan, and they produced a Video Game that's full of faux-classic games. It's like a tribute to NES-era games, hence Pixel's comment about reminding him of his Famicom :)

うれしい！
I'm happy that Pixel is happy about it.
I wish I could have seen his expression when he unwrapped it.

Nice!
I'm so glad to give the guy just a little back for the awesome game. Although now that I think about it - a giving him a DS with his very own game characters etched on it was kinda weird... Imagine the conversation it might spark?
Yeah - seriously though - when are we getting another CS:DS demo? Sometime soon maybe, Playing the game on my PSP is awesome and all, but not nearly as awesome as on a DS: )
