good English, btw i enjoy these videos (are there any other japanese board games that are somewhat heard of but highly under sold in north america?)

[HIDETCHI]

Thanks.

I'm afraid I don't understand what "under sold" means.

[swspartan327]

@HIDETCHI it means that its hard to find =]

[HIDETCHI]

@swspartan327 I see. Then one board game I can think of is Go or Igo. Another famous board game in Japan. But I guess it's more heard of and more reachable from America than shogi is.

@yashirokyu Ye yeah, i know, saw it lately. I began to practice the kanjis meaning and im getting better playing the game but memorize it kanjis imply a headache lol. This videos will makes me an amateur-pro gamer, i guess ._. Thanks, i ll gonna practice harder.

[yashirokyu]

@FuckTheSystem321 I believe there is no tips. But in the Lesson #5 you'll find explanation of meaning of kanji and closer look into all pieces. And believe me, that after few games, recognizing pieces won't be a problem at all.

[FuckTheSystem321]

Ohhh shit, this board game is so hard :(. The letters sets in pieces are to dificult to learn. Some tip to memorize it quickly? D:

Nice video, i hope learn shogi play mode with your videos.

[zZCosmicEnergyZz]

Very well made videos and i enjoyed the visuals that you used.

[waldentenebris]

i feel like i'd enjoy this form of chess, it looks like it would be a hell of a lot harder than chess, given you can re-use captured pieces. thanks for the tutorial!
