wow japan has a lot of retro games, wish the states had stores like these to preserve old games

[子供部屋おじさんヒイラギ]

I am a Japanese who is learning English.
Please come to Japan again!

As mentioned in the comments, the retro gaming market in Japan is booming!
Unopened items hold especially high value.
Also, stores like Super Potato(9:20) have fantastic selections, but they are quite expensive!
Therefore, it's a store you might use when you really want something specific.

[XDxrss]

thank GOD you went back and bought that copy of Pokemon Box, still sad to see you missed out on buying a boxed copy of red, i believe you’ll get them soon 😤

[ericksosa]

I’m going to Japan next week, coming across your channel was the best thing that’s happened to me while researching where to buy pokemon games! Thank you!

[piplup]

Lost games are always the most facinating to me. Old games really do be hitting different

[KylesBestvideos]

I started watching you in the 7th grade and now I'm 24, living and working in Japan (from America). Welcome to Japan!

Ps. I won a giveaway like a decade ago from you, so thanks for that!

Man seeing Munch and Kern goes to Akihabara make me regret not going last time I went to Tokyo. I really want to go, but I was badly injured and walking a lot was impossible for me so I’m very sad. I’m glad you’re having fun tho! Slice of us vlog are so fun to watch too!
11:08 OMG I love Mandarake. When me and my brother go to Akiba we never look first where want to go we just stroll around and man when we find Mandarake we are like 😂
13:02 Surugaya looks like a treasure box maybe I should check them out too
Thank you for the great review and place’s recommendation!

Man that was such an enjoyable video! Gotta love retro game hunting in Japan, and since I can't do it right now, thank you for filming yourself doing it!

I just finished up a month long trip in Japan and without a a doubt the Surugaya in Tachikawa was my favourite. As of four or so days ago they had the Pokémon Colosseum Celebi bonus disc you mentioned(in the original packaging) for ¥15980, I picked up a couple of copies of Pokemon Box(with the memory cards) for ¥3000 and they had so much more stuff that you’ll love! It’s about 40 minutes out of Tokyo but I’d strongly suggest it if you get the chance! 😁

1:28 i see shin megami tensei iii nocturne and digital devil saga. those games are pretty fire.

[kiavra]

I really love the new style of videos! I've noticed you slowly go in this direction since around Legends Arceus' release cycle. I hope it'll stick the landing with other people, though

[alakazamalchemist]

Once again living P5R in real life right now, hope your enjoying your time and the lp will eventually return and you will finally finish that great game.

[RetroMoments]

Great video, man! I know exactly what its like to hang out in those stores for hours haha!
Recently went to BEEP for the first time. It did not disappoint. But nothing beats Surugaya imo.

[animeodin]

This man really gave me yet another reason to want to fly out to Japan at some point. Obviously, they have every Pokémon game I could possibly want but on top of that, it's cheaper than trying to get the English versions from sellers in America. Plus, well.... it's Japan so it's got every nerdy anime product out there to begin with lol.

[eletro-yt]

yooo your biggest fan is here I been watching your channel since I was 6 I'm 16 now

[thequincy_]

12:50 Casual zoom in of the yuri ass grabbing action haha, that has me chuckling

[stellarthefeller]

[willrobertson]
