Version 1.02 (4/17/2010): Fixed a few minor errors. 2. Introduction Game Center CX Arino no Chosenjou 2 is a fun collection of original retro type games. If you have played the first game, Retro Game Challenge in America, then I highly recommend you import this sequel because it has more to offer and more variety in the games than the original. As a note, most games require little to no Japanese to play except for three of the games. Apart from the main game, there is a daily challenge mode for those who want to be offered more challenges. Be warned, the challenges start easy like the main game challenges, but progress much harder as you defeat many of the challenges. 3. Getting Started To start, find the date you want to start playing the daily challenges. Remember you can change the in game calendar. Once you pick a date, this will help you know how to find the correct challenge to start from on the list of challenges. Then you pick a date from the following list: 2/22/09 4/9/09 5/24/09 7/8/09 8/21/09 10/5/09 11/19/09 1/3/10 Pick the date that’s after yours, but before the next date on the list. The date on the list will be challenge #1 on the challenge list. Starting with this starting date, assign the next following date to the challenge and so on until you find your challenge. Afterwards, remember that the next days challenge will be next challenge on the list. In general there are 45 different challenges. When you cycle through all 45 challenges, the challenges will repeat and will loop all 45 challenges again and again. When a challenge is repeated, the following will happen. If you beat the same challenge the last time you played it, then it will give you the same challenge but more difficult than the last time you complete the same challenge. Suppose you beat the Demon Returns challenge of collecting 2 golden apples. Next time you will have to collect 4 golden apples. You get the gold sticker and 50 points for completing the challenge. You get the normal sticker for not finishing the challenge(30 points). You get 20 more points for completing the challenge the same day. Basically it is when you change your normal sticker to a gold sticker. You get 10 bonus points for playing 2 days in a row. You get 20 points for 3 days and so on up to 50 points on 6th day. The 7th day and on, you will receive 50 bonus points. You will get 2000 bonus on your birthday. You get 250 bonus points for 7 gold stickers in a row on consecutive days. 4.
