North Korea made a Wii clone console. North Korea has video games. I have so many questions. What are these consoles? Who made them? What games do they have? When compared to games from the rest of the world, are DPRK gamers getting titles that are Kim Jong Unique or are these games just same same but different? Do they have a game where you play as a plastic bag floating through the wind? So many questions!

We see some comments and posts stating that Studio SEK did not work on The Lion King, but rather, they worked on an Italian spin-off called Simba the King Lion. It is certain that they worked on Simba the King Lion, but it’s impossible to say with certainty (As with most things regarding NK) that they did or didn’t work with Disney. However, we didn’t make a mistake in our statements. Here are some articles that led us to believe that they worked with Disney for a period of time: culture.ifeng.com/abroad/200811/1129_4088_900193_1.shtml m.haiwainet.cn/middle/345646/2014/1203/content_21478508_1.html

It's funny but also irritating from a nerds perspective. The mid 1970s is kind of the kindling for Furry and big part of it was opposing generic stereotypical crap that would have been common in animation especially propaganda. Some of the earliest Furries were "alien" species specifically because this gives an excuse to world build around the origin of the species. That was the point.. to tell stories about Furries... not use talking animals to tell stories. Hope that makes sense.

It's worth noting the original Wiimote itself didn't truly have a gyroscope and used an accelerometer instead. This was the reason for the introduction of the Wii Motion Plus accessory which added a gyroscope. Some Wiimotes made late in the console's life did come with Wii Motion Plus integrated into the unit. The Wii itself also used remarkably primitive hardware even for its time, having only 88 MB of RAM, a PowerPC CPU slightly upgraded from the GameCube's and only a 512 MB flash memory chip for storage. It was closer to the technology of the 6th gen than it was to the Xbox 360 and PS3 that it competed against. Still sold like hotcakes though.

15:00 Growing up in Syria back in 2005-2006 we had this exact show dubbed to Arabic. It was called "فارس الشجاع" which literally translates to "Brave Knight". Although this is the first time I'm learning that it's a North Korean show, I remember at the time that it felt somewhat weird and different from the usual Japanese stuff like Digimon, Pokemon, or Case Closed (Detective Conan). Nevertheless I remember really enjoying the show, It features themes of honor, courage, and patriotism.

The clickbait hurts. It's not that North Korea made a game console, or a North Korean console. It's a Chinese console made by a brand named SUBOR in China. Even you yourself question why it has Chinese in it, and even the thumbnail has Chinese on the product. And you even mention yours isn't the Korean rebranded OEM one. Why not use a better, less clickbaity, title that properly represents the video? "The Chinese Game Console Resold in North Korea".... Wouldn't get as much views, right?

My dad went to school with Volker Eloesser who is one of the founders of Nosotek. That's the same guy who made The Curse of Ra for the Amiga. Before that NK joint venture he had made millions from selling his mobile game company to Jamba in 2004 (which was then sold to Verisign and then to News Corp, which is why Nosotek got the Big Lebowski deal). In a recent interview he said that at the time no one of his NK staff was allowed internet access, only he as a Westerner would get modem access that even at the time (2008-10) was too slow to access larger websites. He also played several roles in NK movies because he was one of the few Westerners in the country at the time. He now owns a business that markets historic and retro window and door handles from Europe and Asia.

There’s also another Bowling Alley in North Korea which called “Golden Lane” and that place is bigger than the one in the hotel. So sad there aren’t any Bowling Leagues or Pro Bowlers in North Korea that can host tournaments and take up all the Lanes of that place. Its more old school as it uses the same lane equipment as Japan uses for their Bowling Alleys back then. It was unfortunately shut down for good, not sure when but it was only a few years after Kim Jong Un came to power

Tanner's been talking about it on floatplane: *Yup. It still just says I didn't get the correct amount of points. I spent a solid 45 minutes during the April Fools shoot trying to figure out what I had to do to finish the game.*

This was a really cool and enjoyable video! Love hearing Linus talk about more obscure tech and deep dive into the history of gaming and tech culture that's largely isolated from us here in the West.
@DisturbedNeo 19 днів тому
Hold up, has Linus (or anyone at LTT for that matter) never used a Playstation EyeToy before? Because that "fruit ninja" knockoff gameplay was immediately recognisable as an EyeToy clone, which makes it doubly surprising considering Linus said he would be channelling Jackie Chan, and the most well known EyeToy game is probably the one where you fight ninjas. Like, I find it difficult to believe he wouldn't know about it, but that "It's like if the Kinect were shit" comment makes me feel like he thinks the Kinect was the first peripheral of its kind, and that's so far from the case.
@verakoo6187 19 днів тому
Kinect is the most recognizeable name, and is well know for being shit. If he said "it's like if the Sega Activator was shit" only like 3 people would know what he was talking about lol

Linus isn't a big console gamer. He's mentioned playing Wii Bowling with his older relations and he has a Switch (and maybe an X-Box).

The Kinect was actually super impressive tech. Turning video feeds of a person into a moving skeleton is insanely difficult and nothing else like it exists in the home market. Gonna need a whole video about the Kinect to correct Tanners little blunder there.

I never thought I would be learning things from a Linus tech tip video, certainly not about history but I'm very glad for it :-) this is excellent! And a pleasant surprise in the departure of the formula! Allowing the information dumps to go into more detail! And I don't mean information dump as a negative by the way, I can see how that could get confused..

The running ad doesn't seem to be for the game, but for the running board thing. It says that by using the "exercise footboard", it'll feel just like if you were in a real stadium. And says that it'll ensure the speed (seeming to mean more consistent speed) and increase on-screen realism. Incidentally, even that short ad prominently shows a difference in North vs South Korean style Korean. I've lived in Korea for many years and never saw the word 리용 until now. Because in South Korea, the same word is 이용. In SK, terms from Chinese characters where the first syllable originally began with sounds for ㄹ and ㄴ have changed to drop the opening consonant. So, they changed the Hangul spelling to represent their change in pronunciation. Whereas, in NK, the leading sound stayed as it was so they left the spelling as it was.

The directory is not empty but rather than having the directories with names like "n64" and "psp" it now has a directory tree with all the names in Chinese.
