14:58 - Dragon Spirit This was one of the few games we had on NES when growing up. Absolutely loved that game. My brain will randomly play the power up sound from time to time still haha.
Another amazing video. I love buying from surugaya online ! Atleast pre-pandemic i felt they underpriced stuff atleast online . Now a days ehhh but exciting to see a physical location!
Sick video as always! I feel like Surugaya has some of the best prices of any store nowadays. The Valis games on Mega Drive are awesome. Seems like they always go under the radar somehow.
NeoGeo would've done better if it wasn't so expensive back in the day. I think SNK should do compilations of their classic fighting game series on PS5, XSX, Switch, and PC.
i always thought that sega genesis/mega drive had the best packaging for a video game, ever: the sturdy clamshell case, the cartridge size, and also the label art to cartridge ratio (it feels like collecting trading cards!). i am partial to the japanese mega drive version due to its many full-frame artworks, and i also like its curved top.
@@4amLaundry Japanese prices are rising faster than anywhere else lately. I might be wrong but I feel Japanese are just getting into the retro scene in a bigger way because they have been exposed to these recycle shops since the 1990's seeing these games day in and day out. True lies reaching $400 is because the MD was not in favor in Japan at the time of release and less copies were circulated. Its cheaper on Genesis. The Castlevania on MD is also a very expensive game on the Japanese market compared to the west.
ive been ordering like a kid in a candy store from surugaya online when they have free shipping weekends, ive gotten 4 packages..prices are hella fair. Also got some sweet import laserdiscs, they are in english audio but have japanese subtitles..so much cheaper than the USA counterparts and unless its marked as junk, alot of their stuff is in really nice shape. I got a junk saturn yellowed for #21, just needed a 2032 battery, and needs some cleaning inside..thing fired up and worked no issues. Also might need a retro brighting attempt when i get enough hydroperox
yeah selection is semi limited tho and searching to find stuff can be a pain cause of the english/japanese translation search terms may not match up@@4amLaundry
I love how you have your puppy ❤ so cute and yay to Sega 😊pipeful mail looks good is that the best price you seen or you think you can find it lower? Laughing salesman you can play that without knowing Japanese? It looks good but idk if there English lol. 15:14 I have bird week it’s a cute game 😊 would love kid Dracula famicom and gameboy it’s so expensive in ebay kid Dracula and you and Adam find it at $10 or $15 lol usd. 21:44 I love the DS there a few Japanese DS games I would love to find or just see price, I can’t believe that box set lol 😅 $6 usd it’s so big lol 😮😅
sega? like...sonic? man, he just runs so fast, you know? I bet that speed makes his feet really hot. sweaty, too. like imagine sonic took his shoes off, I bet you'd just see a big humid cloud of his foot sweat, and itd be STINKY like just a big hot stinky cloud
Track & Field was fairly popular in the US. I didn't have it, but I did play it a lot. I did catch the price on the side of the Dead or Alive 3 arcade stick ¥4,780.
Eagerly waiting for the "I tried ALL 36 HOLES" video that is sure to come! :D
Please play Bird Week.
10/10 idea lmao
Your editing is amazing
Thank you!

It's definitely a classic!
great vid 🐶🐶🐶
nice to see you experimenting with your vids, always interesting finds too.
Thanks! I really enjoyed this store
Cool to see that Mega Drive stuff.
I didn't have one growing up so it's super fun to explore it now!
Mega drive is often overlooked in game hunts videos, so thanks a lot for this!
Epic stuff 😎
Which eikawa do you work at? 😅
Your channel is a blessing for people like me who aren’t in Japan
Glad you're enjoying it!
@@4amLaundry watched multiple of your videos, sure am enjoying them!
Great video, Christmas Saturn is on my list to find next time I'm in Japan!!
I just want a regular working one as my main Saturn"s laser gave out :(
You Can MOD it to play from a flash card!@@4amLaundry
Yeah but a Satiator is $200+ :(
Bro is so chill. Drops a video and its ALWAYS AMAZING
haha thanks man
Amazing video and edit! I found your channel today and you just earned one more subscriber. Thanks for the video!
Greetings from Brazil.
Thanks for watching!
I'd be interested to know if any of these stores in Japan have PAL retro games. 🤔
I've never come across any, they'd be super expensive if they had them though.
@@4amLaundry In the UK our retro game stores have Japanese releases so that's why I ask.
Thanks mate :) please where the location of the shops?
Cool that you showcased a lot of SEGA games! Awesome video! I feel that Surugayas usually are pretty cool, they got a lot of games.
Stay tuned for part 2! So much more cool stuff to come lol
Great video! Can you tell me the exact location of this store as I am visiting Tokyo next week. Thanks heaps.
Thanks! This is Surugaya, it's s chain and this specific store is in Tachikawa.
Awesome, thanks!! I will make sure to visit.

I had no idea so many people bought from them online haha, glad you enjoyed the video!
I was a Sega kid and I loved Thunderforce 3 on Genesis. Thanks for this video. Cool dog.
I was totally a Nintendo kid but that sort of makes all these Sega games completely new territory to explore haha
Also the editing is improving with every video keep up the good work Pim
Thanks!
Sick video as always! I feel like Surugaya has some of the best prices of any store nowadays.

Absolutely flew under my radar as well but not anymore lol
Great job on the video.
Thank you!
NeoGeo would've done better if it wasn't so expensive back in the day. I think SNK should do compilations of their classic fighting game series on PS5, XSX, Switch, and PC.
Yeah but a big part of the appeal was that it was a "premium" option for camers. Like it was literally an arcade machine for your home
Do any of these stores have online stores? That can ship overseas? Great videos by the way!
Yeah some people told me Surugaya has an online store that ships internationally. Hard Off too but they only shop in Japan.
banger vid as always
Thanks brosky ♥️
Love your channel, long life ! Red Alarm is quite good
Thanks! I haven't played it so gonna check it out for sure
Cool video! Where are you originally from?
Also, which Surugaya branch did you take this video at?
I'm from Aruba and this was the Tachikawa branch!
I remember when those IR controllers came out. Man did we all want them but damn were they bad!
The concept is good...lol

Oh ! Tachikawa ! Nice Video ! Sub & Big Like ! And love retro games !
One of my favorite Surugaya's, thanks for subbing!
@@4amLaundry Thank you for your reply ! If you are interested in the nostalgic game culture of Japan, please subscribe to the my channel !!
You could've showed that Z you walked right past. Cute dog....
Haha that's my neighbor he was watching when I did that so didn't want to disturb him, he goes to Daikoku often too
I bought True lies for the Genesis for around $80. Its considered a hidden gem.
Thanks for explaining! I really didn't know about it.

They have been rising for a while but I think it's just catching up to the rest of the world/all the exporters that popped up during Covid.
Incredible dog. Which Surugaya is it?
Thanks ♥️ It's the one in Tachikawa.
Love the dog bro
Glad she's getting popular lol
Bomber King is surprisingly good
It's so underrated, like bomberman mechanics in a zelda world kind of
