This is interesting!
Yeah, DTFS did release a vid titled "History of the batsu games" which went from the first bet Hamada and Matsumoto did on their show, to the Vladivostock batsu game for Hamada. In the hour somewhere there is a section that talk about the sharpie that Hamada had to retrieve in New york, but it’s a fairly short excerpt of this batsu.
It can be found on D-Addict

I sure would like the complete batsu game for it and not just a clip

I have the same desire
I didn’t know there was a part 2 to this, Shows what happened when hamada got back from NY. I found it on youtube. Its only 7 mins the rest is talk but still worth a watch.

Sakamoto is an old friend of Downtown’s, he used to be a friend from when they were much younger, so I’ve heard anyway lol I love Ryuichi Sakamoto <3 he’s my user pic.
I’m watching Ryuichi Sakamoto on NHK right now! At least I was until the signal went. Just as I type this the show is back on. This guy is amazing! I think he might be my new favourite modern composer. I wish I knew more about him, besides Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence, much earlier.
