PostHugo vs. Family Trainer...
by AerisHime » Wed Oct 01, 2008 11:27 am

Evening there,

i was wondering, did the minigame collection called Hugo ever make it across our lovely country borders?
Him: Image It started off as a telly show that you had to call and play via number pad on the phone...
The thing is, today I got Family Trainer to check out and after i've been pissing myself laughing at the manual (no, really) and checking out the included games it all sounds very much like a rip off from (? what's the correct preposition) Hugo. Now how Namco Bandai dares to steal from THAT is beyond me.

Well. anyone willing to try out that thing w/ me?

"!Do not wear socks. !Do not punch the mat." ... interesting use of exclamation marks and... no socks? eww.

Hugo is also big in Russia, Norway and Denmark. And yes, it used to be on children's TV here.

Hugo was here on live and kicking iirc. It was a saturday morning kids tv show that dads like due to the lovely presenters.

Id swear that guy was on TG4, speaking Irish and called Haudi or something like that. Anyone else think that or am I gone mad?

P.S. TG4 is an Irish language station in Ireland so only the Irish on here will know what Im on about.

I saw a bench on a street in Prague that was sponsored by Hugo a few years ago.
