Horii’s game career began in 1983, but before that, he was kicking around as a freelance writer.

July. 22,2010
Arino’s tasked with conquering Golgo 13 for Famicom, better known to English-speaking countries as Golgo 13: Top Secret Episode for NES.

Season 1
The CX in the title comes from JOCX, the call sign of Fuji TV. Arino's Challenge began as a short segment in Season 1. Interviews made up most of each episode.
