Fvck achievements. This is for the fun of it.

Then I'm glad I didn't use them.

@@sadderthanyou7793 be glad 🙏

What, you think you’re better than me?

Bring that shit, Kazuma!

I'm glad it was helpful to you.

lol I guess it's possible, but it would be torture without an analogue stick.

Bro why you even play yakuza if you aren't a real yakuza?

Not very reliable to go by that. The timing should be based entirely on watching the ball, not Kiryu.

Where there's a will, there's a way, my friend.

No...there's no way...stop.

@@OMGYasuke Don't worry, after struggling with baseball you can sit down for a nice relaxing game of pool :))))))

@@Sarmathal Can you please just tell me what's wrong with Batting in Y3?

@@Willhoo85 Stricter timing with less room for error. The Easy batting challenge is the hardest because you can only miss 2 out of 20 balls.

@@Sarmathal wait wtf?? did i read it right? EASY challenge is the hardest as you can ONLY miss 2 out of 20??? Then what about the rest of difficulty?

you havent tried mahjong then

​@@heyiambored8995 nah mahjong is ez

No lol

@@coreywilson8161 yes lol

@@DavidUtau no It wasn't lol

The whole 100% is hell

I am now starting that batting cages and I’ll tell you which is harder between it and mahjong

I've never seen that glitch. Were you playing on PC?

@@sadderthanyou7793 Xbox one. I actually recorded it with game dvr but I need to get around to uploading it.

Bruh same 🫤

Even if I do hit the ball it doesn't do anything i failed. This game is rigged it shows I hit it the ball goes and touches the bonus ball and says I missed

@@Asylumfox Nothing is rigged. It might be input lag on your TV. This minigame requires good reflexes.

@@sadderthanyou7793 that curve ball that comes out of tv screen and comes back just briefly that's hard. I finally got the 10 million yen of the completion list after multiple tries.

@@Asylumfox Well, to me, the challenge makes it fun.

@@sadderthanyou7793 got any tips for the cat fights I have only won 2 by chance and going for platinum. I love the yakuza series and aiming to do the whole series

It's exactly the opposite. This mini-game is precise and you will get different results if something is even a bit off, but there's no luck involved.

@@sadderthanyou7793 With the other 9 im sure you are right, but trapezoid is not the case i think

@@NervThe It is the case with trapezoid as well, but if you screw up the aim even by a few pixels and/or put the wrong force on the ball, it might not work.

keep trying man, you can do it. I'm struggling too, but you can just do the easy ones and earn at least 6000000 per game, and repeat 10 times

@@freezeweget1729 actually i did start a new achievement account so i might start yakuza 0 again after I finish Like a Dragon. I do just suck ASS at the bowling game mode tho

Thanks for noticing. I experimented a lot in this fight, just because of my love for this game's battle system. This is, in fact, the PS4 version of the HD remaster being played on a non-CRT display with a DualShock 4 wirelessly.

@@sadderthanyou7793 The main problem with the HD Remaster is in the sound department: tracks don't sustain notes as they should. Even after the patches it hasn't been fixed. Demul, on the other hand, only has a few texture problems (Yamagishi's house; a certain gambling spot on South Carmain Qr.), but everything else works as it should. Unfortunately this emulator has more input-lag than other emus (not the bird), although that might've been partially on my part, as I was using a Dualshock 1, which of course requires an adapter. I've felt the difference during Arm Wrestle matches when using a keyboard - - there's less delay, so perhaps using an Xbox controller with its XIput API would be the way to go... Since you've mastered the fighting, give it a try on Demul and let me know if it's too delayed. Try different controllers, if possible. There's also GDEMU. Just like Demul, it gets rid of slowdown on crowded areas, thanks to the faster access speed of an SD card.

@@marioe.4400 Sorry, Demul won't work on my Linux PC and I don't use Windows at all. You're right about the HD remaster having severe audio issues. They admitted to just leaving it like that since emulating the DC audio chip accurately was too hard for the devs (the British d3t studio). GDEMU is something I'd like to check out, but I don't want to buy the Chinese clone and the original is too expensive for me, to be honest.

@@sadderthanyou7793 Considering how unreliable the laser units on DC are, it's absolutely worth it. It is THE thing to do when getting the system. Currently it's not possible to make a preorder - as they come in very limited batches - but once they become available, don't let it slip away. I don't know if you grew up with Dreamcast, but regardless, here's some I'd recommend. Some were lazily ported, so they're best enjoyed on DC: Skies of Arcadia - Gamecube has extra quests, but worse music quality and no Pinta Quest (VMU mini-game); Jet Set Radio (De La Jet Set Radio - - the complete version) - The PC port plays weird; trick animations are fucked up and some tracks were removed); Street Fighter Alpha 3 - Sega Saturn version is more arcade-accurate but has worse sound quality and none of the extra modes found on DC; PSP version has 3 extra characters but you're not gonna play it on that tiny analog stick, right? Only emulated with a favourite controller or arcade stick; Capcom Vs. SNK - Perfect Naomi port; Sega Extreme Sports - Really interesting and unique, even if a little stiff. Soundtrack by Ninja Theory; Headhunter - PS2 version has better encoded FMVs and some crash bugs were fixed. VGA support on DC; Evil Twin: Cyprien's Chronicles - Terrible color banding on the PS2 version, but variable/uncapped framerate on DC; Ecco The Dolphin: Defender of the Future - One of the most "I'm so lost" games you'll find, but really technically impressive, with great music and ambience. Metropolis Street Racer - Tight gameplay; day-night cycle with timezones; hysterical soundtrack; Virtua Tennis 2 - One of the hardest A.I I've come across; Crazy Taxi 2 - Still an exclusive to this day; The best versions of Tony Haw's Pro Skater 2; Spider-Man and Rayman 2. Then you have more experimental stuff like Seaman; L.O.L (Lack of Love); Roomania #203. Plus, there's still people playing Online! You can check out some streams at 'DreamcasticChannel'. And now it's even possible to run Atomiswave games! You can also get many prototypes and betas at HiddenPalace(dot)org. It's literally impossible to get a better deal at that price point. Just make sure yours is a VA1.

@@marioe.4400 You are right that GDEMU is technically worth it, but I really can't afford it right now (the original, I'd never buy the Chinese clone out of respect for the original creator). I'm a DC fan since 1999. I've played all of the games you had listed, but I haven't finished all of them. Maybe one day (especially if I ever get GDEMU). :)

It's really not that bad when comparing every cp challenge in the game. You don't even need to clear all of them, you can just do all the easiest ones, make a small profit, and repeat till you get $10 mil. Mahjong and shogi were significantly harder for me, since I didn't know how to play either game properly, and learning everything/ getting good enough at either of them, can take a considerable amount of time for a lot of people.

@@Slate398 kinda late but you can cheat shogi with an AI, i play against a bot in my phone and copy its moves to win

@@capivarasuprema5516 Yeah true, there's even videos on youtube that show you how to beat one of the challenges in a sure fire way, to slowly make money for the cp. But I wanted to actually learn how to play, at least enough to get what I needed from it. While not everyone would feel the same way as me, there will be some that prefer to learn the game rather than take an easy way out. So even though there are ways to make it easier, I found shogi much more of a challenge than bowling.

@@capivarasuprema5516 or you can just keep replaying challenge 1, much easier imo

nah, you can just spam and get lucky rng, but all those casino, gamble and mahjong are true cancer

Thank you!

If you could manually aim the ball, there would be no challenge whastoever, making this game pointless.

@@sadderthanyou7793 id rather it be easier than just annoying

@@Cloudyboi287 that's what Wii Sports is for. Not this.

There's no luck involved. This minigame has no randomness in it. However, matching everything perfectly is not as easy it sounds. You need to develop a certain timing in your hands in order to set the ball's initial angle and spin. The spin is especially important and there's a great deal of sensitivity involved when tapping the d-pad to do a proper spin.

@@sadderthanyou7793 Excuse me, I will not argue directly with a high achiever such as yourself but let me just say that I've done the Trapezoid two different times with ball power at 29 and 35 times respectively, both times dead on in the center without any adjustments, and the first attempt failed while the second succeeded. Very similar numbers (25 and 34, for example) failed for me on several attempts. Is this minigame truly so precise that such small differences are enough to mean the difference between failure or success?

@@kyrylovorotyntsev2619 You think that because this mini-game is very sensitive to button presses. Even if you're off by a few milliseconds when pressing the buttons, it will change the outcome. You can think both times were "dead on in the center", but it might have shifted even by a few pixels since you always stop the aiming dynamically in this game.

@@sadderthanyou7793 The reason I failed those attempts is because the middle pins bounced right off the ball into the walls instead of hitting the remaining pins. For this reason I think the power of my throws must be the only difference as in any of my other attempts I couldn't hit both of the middle pins while aiming for the center from the default starting position in the middle with the bright flame ball if my aim was visibly off in the slightest (except 2 or so times when an adjustment saved me by correcting the ball's path to the one i would've made if my aim was right). P.S. Please forgive these word salads I've been feeding you, my head was a bit foggy at the time I wrote these comments.

@@kyrylovorotyntsev2619 Or maybe you're not picking the right ball. Whatever it is, it's not random.

It's actually a 1 million bonus but you get 3 million profit

To be fair, there is A TON of RNG in this minigame to the point that anyone claiming otherwise is utter nonsense. The exact way you aim is random, how much power you put in is random, where the ball leans after you release it is random, where it goes after hitting pins is random, where pins go after being hit is random. It could ask you to roll a d100 until you get a 1 twice in a row and be more consistent and fair than this.

@@LimitedRegicide That's not entirely true at all. While it's hard to make exact adjustments, you can clearly see where you're aiming the ball, you have a meter that shows how much power you're putting in from 0-100 (just requires good timing), you can choose heavier or lighter balls, and you can control the strength of the rotation in either direction, just after setting the power. Obviously the game isn't going to be perfect when it comes to physics, but a little bit of practise makes it easier to understand how the ball will react based on weight, power, and rotation. The way you describe it as "a ton of rng" makes it sound like you press one button and everything is determined for you at random, it's not. You determine every stat, you just need good enough reaction speeds.

@@Slate398 So you're saying you can, guaranteed, get the exact same direction and power every single time without being off at all even once? Bullshit

@@LimitedRegicide I'm not saying you need to have the exact same outcome everytime, though it is possible albeit very difficult to do. Besides, you have the completely wrong idea of what "rng" is. It stands for random number generation. That would mean that everytime you press the button to aim down the lain, it would randomly select one of 'x' number of positions. Then when you press the button to select your power output, it would randomly select a number from 0-100 and so on. You have very high control over how the ball acts in this game. What makes it difficult is understanding how/where to aim, how the different weights affect your throw, etc. But if you want to throw at either 30 power or 100, it's not hard to do. If you want to throw down the middle of the lane, or slightly off to one side, that's also extremely easy to do. That's nowhere near rng.

@@Slate398 I know RNG is, I'm not retarded. And, I'm glad you agree then that despite needing to be absurdly, needlessly precise getting things consistently isn't possible. Because the exact angle you aim is random, the exact power is random, where the ball travels and leans is random and where it bounces after hitting the first pin is 100% random.
