    My sister just started playing the Yakuza games, and told her that Takeshi Kitano was on Yakuza 6. When she asked me who he is, I showed her this video. Then we both realized that this game has karaoke, yakuzas and random fights, and an open world. Maybe Takeshi Kitano was a visionary who created the future of the Yakuza franchise? Who knows!

    Random fact: The "Grilled Mormons" sign is in the official Japanese version of the game.
    It's a pun, because in Japan there are restaurants that serve pork and beef on special grills, called "Horumon"; but as a joke, the game put the word "Morumon" (the Japanese word for "Mormon") on the sign.

    This game is regarded as one of the worst games out there, but the fact that its an extremely cryptic and difficult game about a normal man with an 'eh' life, quitting his job that's probably already failing judging by that line graph, getting beaten by his wife and later divorcing her, gambling his money, getting through a shitty neighborhood filled with gangsters, and to get through the game you have to do shit you've probably never thought of, shit no one ever told you. And you can die so easily if you mess up, you can die by fucking alcohol poisoning! And he just says fuck it and actually does something he actually fucking wants to like adventuring!

      It was a major part of the video game industry crash of 1983.

      Back in 1986, Takeshi hated video games and wanted to make a game that laughed at the gaming industry, hence why this game exists. A majority of not all of the game design decisions were decided on by Takeshi himself whilst drunk at a bar.

    **Things JonTron didn't cover**
    • Punching 20,000 times on the title screen will warp you to the treasure room. (I'm not sure whether the old man kills you.)
    • "horumon" is a common Japanese dish made from offal. As a childish pun, they changed it to "morumon", which the sign literally translates as GRILLED MORMON. It's equivalent to saying "freshly-squeezed Jews" in English.
    • Whenever you die from damage and fall down, you can press A+B simultaneously and repeatedly to revive on the spot. This of course will not help you in the goddamn hang glider section.
    • Pressing Down+A simultaneously on the 2nd controller switches it to Don't Have To Fucking Sing Mode. You can then just press A on the 2nd controller to emulate a yell into the microphone. Tapping it in proper rhythm with the song will also pass the karaoke potion.
    • You can talk to the skeletons as though they were any other NPC.

    Two years later Beat Takeshi would become involved in a game for the first time in 30 years, that being Yakuza 6.
    That said it's kinda ironic that Takeshi's Challenge is eerily similar to what would become the Yakuza games, from the free roaming street brawls, minigames such as karaoke and pachinko, emphasis on realistic themes, and a hint of comedy.

    1: Takeshi made this because he hated gamers. I'm not making this up.
    2: After the "amazing" text box at the end, the game actually mocks you for working so hard to finish it and tells you not to take it too seriously... I call that being an a**hole.
    LATE EDIT : People have been (rightfully) asking me for my sources and I will admit that the only ones I had came from the French channel « Joueur du Grenier » (Gamer from the attic) who reviewed the game, mentioned these rumors and to him, the way the game is designed (and that ending screen) are proof that it was true… and I can buy that.
