Synopsis · As any new parent knows, newborns can be a real handful, so it's no surprise that Arino's challenge of Yoshi's Island has been extended into part 2. Arino is determined that this family reunion will be a happy one but there's one scary fellow who will have something to say on the matter. To test his might Arino has come Fujimidai Game Park, an arcade that has a large assortment of fighting games. Arino gets a little roughed up and then miffed once he realises who's been handing out the beatings. The hits keep on coming in Barcode Gambler when it's time for two super hard games to take to the ring. It's Adventure Island VS. Ghosts 'N Goblins in a showdown for the ages. We interrupt your regularly scheduled program to bring you a special report of a live event. This time it was a stamp rally focused on finding producer Kan's murderer. The truth may be shocking and viewer discretion is advised.

Synopsis · It has taken a good long while for everyone to calm down after the conclusion of his last Mario challenge but the time has come to take on another entry in the series, and this time it's Yoshi's Island. Being a parent himself, Arino will hopefully have the patience of a saint required to guide Baby Mario to the ending and to reunite him with his family. The name of this arcade may be mundane but Retro Game Museum makes for a memorable visit. Not only does it have a great selection of arcade classics, each accompanied with blaring music, but an owner with a unique manner of speaking. It's a testosterone fuelled instalment of the underground Barcode Gambler. This time it's the battle of the action stars when Arnie's Terminator 2 takes on Sly's Rambo.

Synopsis · It's not every day that we see a Playstation challenge but only something truly special would be worthy of the 150th episode's challenge. That something special is the rhythm masterpiece, PaRappa The Rapper. Arino's rhythm and rhyme will truly be put to the test in this anthropomorphic music classic. When Arino isn't busy laying down hot beats he likes to relax and visit arcades and so he decides to do just that in Toy Park Masamiya. Primarily a store stocking a lot of retro toys they also have a few arcade machines including, would you believe, Metal Slug. The two titles duking it out in Barcode Gambler this time are both giants of the historical simulation genre. In the red corner there is Nobunaga's Ambition and in the blue corner is the much cooler sounding Black: Romance Of The Three Kingdoms.

Synopsis · The story of Arino and Pilotwings is not a happy one. This game was meant to serve as a victory lap during his 40th birthday challenge and instead it humbled him for the second time. Arino is not one to let sleeping dogs lie, and so he will once again challenge Pilotwings, but this time he'll be doing it in front of a live audience of hundreds in the city of Iwate. Before we get to the challenge proper it's decided that it would be remiss not to have the first ever TamaGe in Iwate. He stops by the Shizukuishi Retrospective Store which is brimming with nostalgic food, games and paraphernalia. Arino picks up some goodies, plays some games with local kids and then checks out some more traditional games being played in the store.
