7:11 TV tuners are quite popular among Japanese otaku (or were in 2009 anyway), since anime usually airs very late into the night a lot of people just record episodes and watch them back later, on top of that Japanese apartments are generally also very tiny so it's more convenient to be able to watch it on your computer than to have a TV as well as a PC.

Working in a Japanese office years ago, someone had modified their phone to have an OS-tan (possibly even an imitation of Nanami Madobe) make notification sounds. One day the office went into a quite lull, then out of nowhere someone's phone shouted "充電してよ！" ("charge me already!") and the office burst out in laughter.

Very accurate translation by Japanese: 8:21 "チーン" Onomatopoeia. Bell sound maybe 8:33 "あっそろそろバッテリー切れそうだよ。大丈夫?" Uh, battery is about to run out. Are you all right? 8:44 "あらっシステムエラーだぁ" Ah, it's the system error. 8:47 "おっとお" Watch out! 8:50 "抜いても大丈夫だよ" You can unplug now. (This one has a sexual undertone ngl) 8:54 "あっ繋がったよ" Ah, it's connected now. 8:56 "あれれうまくつながらないなあ" Oh noo! Doesn't connect very well. 9:01 "あれえー" Uh what? 9:04 "シャットダウンするね" I'm shutting down now. 9:06 "おやすみ" Good night. 9:10 "ぴろりん" Onomatopoeia. notification sound maybe

Man, this invoke my 2000s nostalgia. There were a bunch of OS tans for every windows but only 7 had a fixed design because it's actually official.

The theme only really skinned the background with the same desktop image that previewed the media center interface (seen at 6:22 in this video) sans the text and such. If you connected an Xbox 360's media center to it the Xbox 360's media center would reflect the theme as well.

16:10 When the pointer is hovering over Nanami it changes to the multicolor cloverleaf design... And seconds after you say it would have been nice if the theme included custom mouse pointers! Isn't there a way to make the cloverleaf pointer permanent?

This is needlessly cool. I agree on the lack of a custom cursor, and maybe this is just me But the Desktop Buddy got me thinking it was gonna be a, what was it, Desktop Assistant? Stuff like the old Parrot character or Bonzi Buddy, but that's definitely asking for too much. Now one question remains: The cat. What's their deal, what's their name? I somehow feel Kenny Lauderdale would be down to dig up and find an answer, man likes an adventure

@zeroyuki92 2 года назад

If Windows 11 released an OS-tan with an official desktop assistant (that is also useful) that would propel Windows 11 sales at least in Japan lol. Especially if they made both casual and weeb version (where the casual version is presented more as a simplified assistant mascot a.k.a a cuter Siri rather than as a full blown gininka)

LOL about the Gentoo logo on the bottom right corner of that advertisement clip of Nanami at 3:34. For those who are trying to find the archive of the theme and buddy its on the Internet Archive. Do a search of "Official Windows Japan Themes and Desktop Buddy" and it'll be the only one to appear (at the time I'm writing this anyway). Apart from the Windows 7 Nanami Madobe stuff, the same archive has the stuff for the Windows 8 OS-tans, the Internet Explorer and Bing ones too.

@xBZZZZyt 2 года назад

@ptzzz 2 года назад

@@xBZZZZyt Looked similar to me too but I don't think so? Honestly not sure. PlayOnLinux' logo is more similar to a four leaf clover with the middle parts touching, while Nanami's hair clip is more like 4 hearts (in Windows flag colors) and the middle part the hearts doesn't touch.

In fact, I've even ended up finding out more about the original ones, as I find this stuff really interesting and neat.
