      Thank you, that means a lot! My algorithm skews heavy towards shorts, so I’m just happy anybody watches my long form content 🙏🏼

    YOOO THE GAME YOU SHOW AT 14:13 IS ONE I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THE NAME OF FOR 20 YEARS!!! 😭
    I played it as a kid, I don't know how I got it, but I had it on a cartridge game. I've genuinely been trying to figure out what it was for forever. This is amazing

      Nice, it looks like one of those Kunio-kun / river city ransom type games but with soccer. Super Dodge Ball is one of my favorite NES games period.

    Can't believe I've never heard of Bookoff. I'm going to Japan in two weeks and I'll definitely be checking some of these out.

      Definitely. A guy named Dennis collects had some more stores in Osaka and Kyoto if you are going out there. Also made a video on akiharbara which is filled with video game stores

    i cant believe you saying the 3ds is region locked in 2024 its incredibly easy to make region free you can even change the language to english

      That’s because the stock OS is region locked.
      Yes, most people can soft mod and crack it to not be, but it is still technically region locked. You’d be surprised at the amount of people that brick consoles even with easily laid out simple step by step instructions. Additionally some people just don’t like modding for w/e reason.
