On April 14, 2025, I visited the Hard Off store in Tomisato city of Chiba! It has been a while and they had so much retro goodness including only the third time I have ever seen a working Atari 2800!

A brand new Hard Off store with nice smell but first I explain how I SPECTACULARLY ESCAPED CERTAIN DEATH! Then some stuff in the new Toride, Ibaraki branch, as visited on April 12, 2025.

Helloooooooo and this time I'll secribe a fun little store visited on April 6, 2025, being the Omiya Miyahara branch of Momotaro Kingdom in Saitama city! You can get the priciest Bonk ever or perhaps Gubble!

The second Hard Off in Saitama city visited on April 6, 2025, this is the Saitama Omiya Nishi branch! It has been so long for me to visit and going back, I can say it still is one of the least interesting Hard Off branches! But go if you like, I guess!

In the heart of Saitama city is the Saitama Kami Komachi branch of Hard Off! I visited on the 6th of April, 2025. Very much they do have disc software compatible with Sega consoles released between 1995 and 2001!

Back to visiting a Hard Off, and this is one that 20 years ago was full of junk cheap gaming goodness. Things were very different on March 30, 2025, however. The Hitachi, Ibaraki branch may hve fewer rare treasures but it does have some sort of unopened Chinese language Switch game!

Get your 100 yen coins and head to Otachu in Hitachi, Ibaraki! I did on March 30, 2025! Lots of 100 yen junk and cheap Super Famicom games! Plus used sneakers and watches or whatever the kids need to feel happy and fulfilled in life.

It is NOT a Hard Off as I return to the chain that fueled my dreams of gaming over 20 years ago. I wistfully revisited the Naka, Ibaraki branch of WonderGoo on March 30, 2025. The once powerful store now offers a powerful deal on 8bitdo!

It's a Hard Off! This time I talk about a visit to a the Fujisawa branch of the store in Iruma, Saitama on March 23, 2025. More PC-FX than most stores... IF YOU CAN HANDLE IT

WHAT? It is not a Hard Off? This time I talk about a visit to a kanteidan store on March 23, 2025. It's the Iruma branch of Guruguru Empire and you can get mint boxed Nintendo games on the cheap! You can also play a ten yen crane game to win gum!
