    Thanks so much for this channel and this video specifically. I had one full day to hunt around in Tokyo for games and hardware and this place has so much to offer for a great price. I actually picked up the Virtual On twin sticks for a fraction of the price I was going to pay for them back home($40 here, about $200 for same condition on eBay).
    I hit up the BookOff Super Bazaar and Hard Off in the area as well and was pleasantly surprised! Thanks again, and looking forward to more content even though I’m leaving Japan today.
    And don’t forget… Hard Off is your DREAM PLACE!!! 😂

    @Tada_Tomo 3 месяца назад +1

    I believe the reason that +Expansion Pass games cost more is because the DLC is actually on the cartridge. The issue with Switch games and their DLC is that they require internet to confirm you have the "right" to use the DLC otherwise you get just the base-game. These cartridge +Expansion Pass games don't require the internet check as the DLC is hard coded on the cartridge. I recently bought the BOTW +Expansion Pass physical because I couldn't play the DLC if I was traveling.

    • @4amLaundry
      @4amLaundry  3 месяца назад

      This makes a lot of sense, also I never see them in retail stores anymore just the dlc code vouchers.

    Woohoo new video I’m the 68 th like 😊 2:55 troublemakers looks cool never seen it till today. The DS CHRONO TRIGGER I heard on another RUclips channel you can buy the Japanese version and it plays in English too, is it true? I just saw the Zelda promotional box yesterday at the retro store for the GC some guy grabbed it before I seen it 😊 it was $79.99 Canadian. 20:50 oh the Saturn ❤ mine I noticed when I got it from Japan mine has a little cracked area but still works. Switch seems more expensive in Japan lol 😂 I saw that xenoblade collector edition at a retro store and it was like around $120-150 Canadian dollars it’s heavy I took a photo and filmed it for one of my video not sure what video lol, I think there a big book in it.

      @4amLaundry  3 месяца назад +1

      Troublemakers is called Mischief Makers in the west, it's a fun platformer and one of the few 2D ones on the N64.
      For Chrono trigger that's true yes! It's why it's expensive even here, the SNES version is super cheap.

    Hey man, I arrived in Tokyo yesterday and went to a bunch of stores around Akihabara. However, it was a big dissapointment. I couldn't find almost anything I wanted and what I found was extremely overpriced. I'm looking for GBA's and Super Famicom consoles and boxed games and also some ps1 and ps2 games (such as Rockman X4 X5, Capcom vs Snk 2). Can you throw some good store names and locations for me please? Thanks!
