Have a guru guru time as Guru Guru Daiteikoku in Yuki city of Ibaraki was visited on May 4, 2024. Be amazed at the high prices Neo Geo CD game! Be astonished at the risk of a Switch gamble! Be aware of your surroundings every time you cross a street!
The best podcast ever recorded under pain of bronchitis! This time, sharing the fun goodness of Otachu in Ryugasaki city, Ibaraki prefecture, visited on May 3, 2024. Thank you for listening and please invent a way to clear up bronchitis without swallowing 100 pills over the course of the week.
Just a couple of things that can be found at Geo, a media store and movie rental shop with branches throughout Japan. This one was in Tsukuba, Ibaraki, visited on April 29, 2024. Also, I'm dearly sick and choked up.
A not so wonderful Hard Off/Off House location in Misato, Saitama. Most of my visits result in no purchases and this visit on April 26, 2024 is no exception. However if you are desperate for a huge boxed light gun or an unopened sexy Saturn game, you are in luck! Also, eat pizza!
It's another Papi! This one, visited on April 22, 2024, had a Game Boy-less Tamagotchi box, cheap Amiibo, and a printer for your PlayStation 2! Also the old man was less old!
A visit on April 21, 2024 to the Guru Guru kanteidan-style store in Machida, Tokyo. It lost the machine I loved the first time I went, but you can still do Switch gambling and get Chesterfield.
On April 21, 2024, I visited the Surugaya store in Machida, Tokyo, and I do not work at the English school next to it so if you would please stop staring at me like you think I do
From an April 21, 2024 visit, in Sagamihara, Kanagawa, it's Zest! Or is it Surugaya? Anyway get cheap old Neo Geo cartridges or expensive new Neo Geo cartridges or aPC-FX fake I should have bought and now regret skipping!
If you are a foreigner visiting various used game stores in Japan, you probably have already visited Hard Off in the ECOTown center in Hachioji, Tokyo. On April 21, 2024, I braved the parking structure to share with you the hobby computers to be had and the white people you can see.
A fine Surugaya store in Kashiwa, Chiba has lots of pricey 3DO nudity. And at least on April 20, 2024, it had the oddest game soundtrack ever put on sale in the junk section.
