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!

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.

**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.

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!

In an interview with Taito, they said that developers and Takeshi went out drinking to discuss the game and the devs implemented every thing the drunk Takesh said. Also after that game, the devs slowly disapeared from the game industry, and the one who made the guide for the game died soon after.

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.

The "Grilled Mormons" bit killed me for some reason! I literally spit out my dinner laughing. The best part of this story is my grandma made smothered pork chops for dinner and I said to her "Did you make this out of grilled Mormons?" My Grandma, not the funniest woman in the world mind you which is why this is so great, without missing a beat says "No they was out of Mormons at the store so I substituted with Jehovah's Witnesses instead." I then proceeded to LAUGH FOR 3 mins straight! Good work, Jon, good work. One question though: Why does it say continue on the first screen if you can't do that?
