- I'm back hunting for the finest, coolest, and most rare retro games out there again. This time I went to a newly opened Lucky Cat Treasure Store aka Otakara Soko that's just been around for only 2 years.
It is located very centrally in Nagoya city at Nakagawa Ward (Nakagawaten).
Let's explore this store and try to find some amazing games! Enjoy!

What would you have picked up from this store?
DS games for sure!
Understandable! Theyre still crazy cheap in Japan…
Maybe psp ? Are umd films a thing over in japan 🤔
Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow. And a new DS (maybe a 3DS instead?). Mine doesn't work anymore and that Castlevania is the only one I still don't have on the DS.
Nice! I was looking for a PSVita myself but they really went up in price.
And UMD films Ive never seen actually. I need to check if Japan has them.
I really feel sorry for the kids today, who never got that chance to pick up a hard physical copy of a video game, taking the little booklet out to read it on the car ride home as the street lights illuminated the pages. To go home, pop it into your console, and play it from the very beginning. No patches, no downloads. Just instant pure fun.
I agree with you! The excitement of scrolling through all the cool cover arts and picking a game. Then taking it to home and putting it in the console.

He saw that they were in serious trouble, rowing hard and struggling against the wind and waves. About three o’clock in the morning Jesus came toward them, walking on the water.
-Mark 6:48
After Jesus fed five thousand people with only five barley loaves and two fish, He sent His disciples across the Sea of Galilee. As they made their way over the water, a bad storm rolled in. It was so bad, in fact, they thought they were going to drown.
Meanwhile, Jesus had gone up a mountain to pray. (And no doubt He was praying for His disciples.) Even though they couldn’t see Him, Jesus could see them. And the Bible tells us that at about 3:00 a.m., He came walking toward them on the water.
This was just before the sun was beginning to rise, which means they had been fighting the storm for a long time. When Jesus came toward them, the Bible indicates that He intended to walk past them (see Mark 6:48).
But the disciples called out to Him, and He boarded their ship. Jesus appeared later than they expected. But He did return.
Sometimes when we’re praying for someone or something, we say, “Lord, it’s getting dark. It’s getting late. You must do something now. Why haven’t You done something?”
Or, we might be discouraged and give up praying because we don’t think that God will do anything. But God has His timing as surely as He has His will. His timing is perfect. The Bible says, “God has made everything beautiful for its own time” (Ecclesiastes 3:11)
Maybe you have an illness and have prayed for God to heal you, yet nothing has happened. Don’t give up. Keep praying.
Maybe you’re praying for a prodigal child, and you’re wondering whether this child will ever come around. Don’t give up praying.
The Bible tells us the story of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus, who were friends of Jesus. He would spend time at their house in Bethany. But one day Lazarus got sick. Mary and Martha sent word to Jesus, knowing He would do something. But Jesus didn’t rush back to Bethany. In fact, He stayed where He was for two more days.
By the time Jesus got there, Lazarus wasn’t sick; he was dead. He had been in the tomb for four days. Martha was angry. She ran up to Jesus and said, “Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died” (John 11:21)
In other words, “Jesus, You blew it. We were bragging about You to all our friends.” Even Mary said the same thing. But then Jesus went to the tomb of Lazarus and raised him from the dead.
Mary and Martha wanted a healing. But Jesus wanted a resurrection.
Ephesians 3:20 says, “Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think”
Sometimes the reason God doesn’t answer our prayers the way we want Him to is because He wants to do more than we’ve asked for. And when we get to the end of ourselves, we get to the beginning of God
I've noticed a lot of younger people are getting into retro gaming and experiencing just that. It's a shame that it's gotten expensive though.
And reading game magazine, then be the 1st who spread the rumor or the cheat code 😂😂
and no youtube help hahaha
Omg I'm 36 years old and I legit would have been like a child in a candy store! That store is amazing!!!! So lucky. Sweet video!
Dude, Im 35, so I totally get it 😃
Definitely an amazing store. Thanks for watching!
im 36 also and my first console is famicom..trying to save my allowance ta buy cartridges
You still write like a child.
36 years young dude here too :)
love to collect this awesome stuff and happy to fly to japan again to buy things like a child with some money hahaha :D
Fascinating how much old stuff in really good condition there is just in that one store!
It really is! I will never get over that aspect either. They are definitely unique to this. Its amazing to pick up a 25 year old video game in your hands and it practically feels brand new!
this is in every retro store in japan!
I am hoping to visit Japan for the first time next year and I cannot wait to go retro game hunting! I will have to add this to my ever-growing list of places.
Oh nice! I hope you will get here! Coolest place on earth to game hunt, thats for sure!
Oh yes, do not miss Otakara Soko! Good luck!
The best places are Book Off, Hobby Off and Hard Off. These have the best prices, especially the ones in less popular places.
It’s so easy to find retro games here, I’d recommend stores like Yorozuya
I'm coming Japan with you for the hunting 😂
@@DESK_of_ZEN Sure! Lets go :D
This is pure Heaven!! And the condition...incredible, even all the vintage games and consoles are almost new by their condition!
Oh yes, Roy! This is the dream, right here!
Japanese people take care of their stuff. Its in their culture to do so!

Another great video, Retro I cannot wait to return to Japan myself in early 2024 and hit up a lot of retro game shops and go on a big shopping spree buying all the games on my list.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. Awesome to hear that you got your trip planned. Remember to go outside the bigger cities to get better deals! :)
Honestly buying 2nd hand in Japan is a totally different experience to anywhere else. They really look after their items, not just electronics but 2nd hand clothes are also a big thing. Uy 2nd hand in Japan you can be guaranteed it's in nearnew condition!
So true. Well said.
And in future videos I will actually cover more second hand stores that has clothes and figures etc.
Stay tuned!
Please continue these game store tours. I know that other RUclipsrs do these too but you do a better than average job of capturing the atmosphere. I used to live in Japan so this really takes me back!
Also! Those prices! In NA everything is a collectors/speculators item. I don't bother anymore. If I could still easily buy 8-bit Nintendo games for $5 - $10 I prolly still would.
Hey RockyBergen! Thank you for the kind words. I really appriciate it.
I will definitely continue with the Game Store tours. Lots of amazing videos coming, I can tell you that.

The last time I was in Japan in 2019 I bought an N64 with Mario Kart and Mario 64 for 4000 yen, a PSP with 4 games for 5000 yen, and a PS Vita for 8000 yen. I'm going back in December and I can't wait to see what I score this time.
Awesome scores, man! Mandatory games to have in the collection. Im sure the condition was amazing too. Thats what you get when you shop straight from Japan. Happy hunting in December!

That is so awesome ! If USA has used game stores like that, their games always sell for very high price
I know!! But there are way more collectors in the US compared to Japan as well.
This video needs more thumbs up. Lots of time spent on this video with video game footage. Few some but few content creators do that. Thumbs up this video guys!
Thank you! You're right about that. And I will continue with the gameplay footage for sure. A lot of people have been mentioning it, so glad its appreciated. Please share the video with anyone you think would enjoy watching it :D
@@RetroMoments is Neo Geo region free or those Neo Geo region free
YES! NEO-GEO is regionfree. You play any game in any system. And the game will boot up in the language of the console. Meaning a Japanese game cartridge put into an American or European system will play in English!
This is like a combination of the CD Rental/Buying store and the HardOff that were in my area when I lived in Japan back in 2008. There was so many good deals because the collectors in Japan go after different things than the west. What really surprised me was how much more PCs and parts were in general over there for not that great specs.
Even for the used games, the games were so clean and generally had all the original inserts in them as well.
Oh cool! What area did you live in?
Yes, youre right, Chris. And in 2008 there were deals everywhere in Japan!
Yea well you know Japan. You put care into all the things you own.
Thank you for watching!

The good deals are about to dry up from all the attention to the deals. Japanese resellers aren't dumb. The demand from westerners is significantly rising. Best thing we can do is not show store names or locations..
@@JS-oi5jt You are a 100% right here. They definitely know that we come there and buy a lot of games at once.
People have told me to not show store names etc. But I think that's what also attracts this channel.
@@JS-oi5jt The number of services that cater to Westerns has increased 10x fold since I lived there. There were very few services offering to ship internationally, let alone allowing Westerns without any Japanese under their belts bid on Yahoo Auctions Japan. Now you have both Japan RUclipsrs and AniTubers both get sponsored or say they used 'x' service in their videos, and suddenly everyone interested in this stuff has access to get it. It's not a bad thing at all, just pointing out that it used to be so much harder to do so, and you had to know at least some Japanese to get by.
I really need to take a trip to Japan. Awesome video!
Yea, man! That would be awesome to see on your channel! Thanks for stopping by here :D
Riktigt häftiga butiker finns det där. Bra video
Visst gör det!? Älskar att upptäcka nya butiker! Tack för att du tittar, Bubba!
Just goes to show how dead in the water the West is. That area looks like a quiet place as well.
Totally! Oh yea, I was the only one going through the game section as you could see.

This 14:49 mario shelf decor is so beautiful
I love that stuff too!
Was not expecting that. 😂😂
That place is deceiving from thr outside…talk about EPIC!
Haha! 😂 Usually, buildings for stores or restaurant in Japan looks like that!
And yea, its defintiely an epic store! Thanks for watching!
NES, MD, SNES, PS1 and PS2 I'am really missed them so much.
Ah... very nostalgic moments. 😢
Glad I could wake up the nostalgia in you! :D Do you have any consoles left still?
You weren’t wrong 😮 that store was mighty impressive with its selection. Great vid mate 👍
Haha and this is only the beginning! Wait for the next couple of videos ;)
Glad you enjoyed this one! Thanks for always leaving a comment. I appreciate it!
I had that Warioland game back in the 90s! I could recognize the cassette sticker immediately! What a memory....
Oh yes! Me too! Spent so much time on that game back in the days! Thanks for watching!
Great video! I would love a longer video covering everything in the store. I love Japan, always has the good stuff.
Thank you Ahmad! Awesome. I will definitely go back to this store.
Thanks for watching!
That orange Gamecube looked really enticing at the given price.
Also notice how at 13:53 they're giving you a $5 discount on a $600 game. 😂 (Talking about Vampire Killer)
Alos that CIB PC-Engine Duo at 15:51 for 34,800 Yen seems like a good deal! That's only $232!
Oh yes! There were a lot of stuff that I wanted to get in this store, thats for sure. Both the orange GC and that CIB PC Engine were definitely good deals. Im still thinking about going back for that PC Engine Duo-R. Very tempted.
Cool shop and nice pickups! The prices on hardware is pretty good at this shop. I was in Nagoya recently, but only had time to visit select shops. I'm looking forward to returning and keep exploring the gaming goodness of Nagoya. Cheers!
Thanks man! Its definitely one of my favorite stores in Nagoya!
Oh nice! Too bad I wasnt there. Which stores did you go to?
Oh yea, theres a lot to explore. Im hoping to go more outside the city the next time! Cheers!
Wow! This thrift store is amazing Adam. I think it's up there in the Top. 3 in the country so far in my books bro. What goodies to enjoy having. 8^)

Anthony! Glad to see you back here!
It really is! I will definitely try to check in on this store as often as I can! Its not even that far away from where I say.
Another game hunt video! Another great day!
Another happy day in Japan!
Most of the in store prices were very reasonable and great quality. I wish we had stores like this. Thank you for sharing.
This store is quite unknown still. Lets hope they wont raise the prices too much after this video lol
Where do you live Scott? Thank you for watching!
@@RetroMoments I live in the northeastern United States. Most places asking prices are high for things like this. And lots of the time the quality is not as good as this shop.
Yea I get that. I feel like the prices in United States are even higher than in Europe...
Hi Adam, im the 94th like :) I can't wait to watch your video😊 will watch it tomorrow. it's almost midnight here in Canada. Neo Geo ❤
Hey! Haha awesome! You will like this video for sure. Enjoy Sara!!
More SFC.. always more :) Nice vid man as always, hope all is well with you man ❤
My man Kjell! 😃 Glad to see you back in here. You will definitely see more SFC! All good here, hope you doing good too! ❤️
Can’t wait to get to Nagoya with you man looks great
Oh yea dude! These stores are awesome! You will enjoy the hunt for sure 😃
Yay, glad you're uploading again! I always love your videos. I hope your college went good.
Thank you, Ruby! I really appreciate that!
And so cool that you remember that :D All went well! Lots of videos coming now!
Awesome video!!! Loved it all. In 2014 i got a Wonderswan and 3 games from Japan on ebay for 25 dollars total. Gunpey is unfortunately the only game i can play since i dont speak Japanese. I wish I could play the early Digimon Japanese games! But it's a cool thing and i got it before prices went nuts. I also got a DS Lite from Japan around 2015 for 20 bucks. American prices have become outrageous but Japanese prices are catching up.
Ive never seen so much great stuff in one store though! Thank you
Thank you, JB! I really appreciate it!
Oh nice! Great deal. I just wish I bought a lot more back in 2014. Well, keep the stuff you have. Value only going up after all these years. And just like you said, Japanese prices are definitely catching up to eBay prices nowadays. Something happened after the pandemic and its not the same in Japan anymore. Luckily you can still find stores like this!
It is incredible what the Japanese do with merchandise that in the West they consider obsolete. They offer good games at excellent prices. The bad thing is that in America and Europe those prices can quadruple.
and people prefer to buy the latest in video games
Exactly! The collection hobby over here is a bit more healthy, in that regard, I guess.
The problem is, that there are way more people collecting games in US and Europe, hence the inflation of retro game prices.
Wish I had known you have to travel outside Tokyo to find good retro game stores. Tokyo has been completely cleaned out.
Yea I dont blame you. We are all discovering this now kind of. Akibabara got cleaned out after the pandemic. And I guess me making videos where to find games for good prices wont last forever either!
Man, obviously we want you to deep dive into everything, but most of the time you won't be able to, so just do your best, we really appreciate these kind of vids, you're taking us there without us having to fly over, so yeah, be our eyes, go slowly and thoroughly, catch the price tags, go thru all sections don't skip, consoles, strategy guides, figurenes can go to hell don't waste your and our time on them. Thanks

He saw that they were in serious trouble, rowing hard and struggling against the wind and waves. About three o’clock in the morning Jesus came toward them, walking on the water.
-Mark 6:48
After Jesus fed five thousand people with only five barley loaves and two fish, He sent His disciples across the Sea of Galilee. As they made their way over the water, a bad storm rolled in. It was so bad, in fact, they thought they were going to drown.
Meanwhile, Jesus had gone up a mountain to pray. (And no doubt He was praying for His disciples.) Even though they couldn’t see Him, Jesus could see them. And the Bible tells us that at about 3:00 a.m., He came walking toward them on the water.
This was just before the sun was beginning to rise, which means they had been fighting the storm for a long time. When Jesus came toward them, the Bible indicates that He intended to walk past them (see Mark 6:48).
But the disciples called out to Him, and He boarded their ship. Jesus appeared later than they expected. But He did return.
Sometimes when we’re praying for someone or something, we say, “Lord, it’s getting dark. It’s getting late. You must do something now. Why haven’t You done something?”
Or, we might be discouraged and give up praying because we don’t think that God will do anything. But God has His timing as surely as He has His will. His timing is perfect. The Bible says, “God has made everything beautiful for its own time” (Ecclesiastes 3:11)
Maybe you have an illness and have prayed for God to heal you, yet nothing has happened. Don’t give up. Keep praying.
Maybe you’re praying for a prodigal child, and you’re wondering whether this child will ever come around. Don’t give up praying.
The Bible tells us the story of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus, who were friends of Jesus. He would spend time at their house in Bethany. But one day Lazarus got sick. Mary and Martha sent word to Jesus, knowing He would do something. But Jesus didn’t rush back to Bethany. In fact, He stayed where He was for two more days.
By the time Jesus got there, Lazarus wasn’t sick; he was dead. He had been in the tomb for four days. Martha was angry. She ran up to Jesus and said, “Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died” (John 11:21)
In other words, “Jesus, You blew it. We were bragging about You to all our friends.” Even Mary said the same thing. But then Jesus went to the tomb of Lazarus and raised him from the dead.
Mary and Martha wanted a healing. But Jesus wanted a resurrection.
Ephesians 3:20 says, “Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think”
Sometimes the reason God doesn’t answer our prayers the way we want Him to is because He wants to do more than we’ve asked for. And when we get to the end of ourselves, we get to the beginning of God
Great input. I appreciate hearing your thoughts. Thank you for watching!
An amazing shop, with a huge selection. I also like the colours as well. I would like to see a deep dive on the Neo Geo.
Oh yea, one of my favorite shops here in Nagoya! Its definitely cool looking :D You can definitely expect some more NEO-GEO on my channel. In the meantime, you can check out the previous NEO-GEO videos on my channel :) Thanks for watching!
So many great games and things to buy.
So awesome
Right!? I almost had to write a list of games I wanted to buy from this store. Lets wait and see in a future video if I go back here...
@RetroMoments I would have spent my pay check for sure in there.
It's good to keep a list and chip away at it ... only way to do it! Here's hoping to see you back there in the future! Thank you. God bless
Yea I dont blame you. Totally get it 😃 Yea, coming to Japan the first time you really need to stay calm and look around before buying. Its not easy, let me tell you that haha! 😃
Oh I definitely have to go here more. God bless!
Wow, it’s like paradise ….amazing.
Some people like palm trees and blue water. Other people like Japanese Thrift stores for retro games 😃
This was a dream store for me. Lots of good memories seeing those retro games again. Will add this place on my wishlist. ❤
Awesome! Glad I could bring back some memories! ❤️
@@RetroMoments 🎮 all good man thanks!
Great. Thanks for watching!
Hi Adam when I saw the cat I knew it was Lucky Cat lol. It’s beautiful store very loud inside it :p watching your video 😊
Hey! Haha oh yes! Otakara Soko is the Japanese name for it :)
It really is loud in there. But that was to my advantage since nobody could hear me talking to a camera lol
Heaven. Looks amazing
Imagine actually walking in here. I cant even describe the feeling. Its so cool!
That is nuts!
Riiiiiight! Still deals to be made in Japan!
Awesome store I personally own every Neo-Geo game ever created my personal treasure I'm 46 so it's been a long hunt luckily I never got rid of my stuff from a kid made it easier lol
Oh wow. Thats amazing. You mean every Neo Geo AES game, right?
Yea, Im glad I kept some gems from my childhood as well.
Hi RetroMoments, thanks for your nice video. Many things for a difficult choice…hmmmm 🤔 neo geo stick boxed first, kof 98, breakers in neo cd, the neogeo online ps2 compilation and game boy games 😅.
Bye see you
Hi Nicky! 😃 Thank you for watching!
Yes, boxed stick very good price. I wanted to buy it at first, but I didnt.
KOF 98 was in perfect condition 😍
And yea many great games here for great prices! 👍
Amazing, visiting Nagoya the first time in Nov, must visit one of these
Awesome to hear that! Hope you'll find some awesome games in there! More videos from Nagoya coming soon!
The junk section is where you find the best stuff!
100%! So much fun to dig through!
Their handheld prices are so over the top, much much more expensive than hardoffs & suragaya's
Yea, youre right. For some reasons, Japanese people really like handhelds.
Heja Sverige! Amazing store! I so want one of those tooloaders!!
Oh yeah, one of the best in my opinion :D I was actually thinking about getting one of those too.
Tack för att du tittar :D
Oh man, look at this beautiful edition of KoF '99! 😭😱
Oh yes! Definitely a beautiful piece. Love that blue spine as well.
I spent so much time playing Wario land for Gameboy such a good game
Haha same!! Wario Land 1, 2 and 3 was stuck in my GameBoy for a long time, back in the days. And I just started on nr 4. It seems awesome.
Hi Adam watching your video while I clean my cat litter box’s 😊 the loose carts are very cheap that wario gameboy 2 bucks Amazing I bought mine on eBay can’t remember how much but was 2 bucks maybe 12-15 cad I can’t remember. Sfc loose games are great prices in Japan 😊 enjoying your video thank you. 30 bucks complete sfc❤ amazing I don’t have a sfc I have a 3rd party 2 in 1 lol. Great video Adam see you sooon in your next adventure 😊
Hey! Yeah Wario Land games are awesome. Glad they can be found for this cheap still. To be honest, loose SFC games didnt move that much in price, except for a few rare games.
You should get a complete SFC someday :D Thank you Sara!
Great video. I love neo geo. Thanks so much!
Glad you enjoyed it! I love the neo geo as well. You can always expect neo geo content here on this channel!
I just found your channel randomly and I love your content, keep it up 👍
I probably would have picked up stuffs from the junk section 😎
Thank you! Welcome to the channel! 😃 Yea I need to go back there and look some more! Everything I picked up from the junk section has been working so far…
Hi just subbed, I love watching videos from Japanese shops. Great work 👍.
Hey Mike! Awesome! Thanks! Welcome to the channel! :D
Theres a lot to see for you then if you feel like backtracking! Enjoy!
@@RetroMoments Definitely 😁
my favorite classic console that i had back then was n classic nes console n snes console big time
NES and SNES are awesome! Still fun to play today!
Really cool store! Another place and prices only possible in Japan.
Oh yea! One of my favorites! This one is worth checking into every now and then, for sure!
Nice one! Need to go to Nagoya on our next trip to Japan.
Mista Nesfrk! You definitely have to visit Nagoya! You can even skip Akihabara now. Its too expensive there…
@@RetroMoments yeah, I pretty much skipped Akihabara back in 2018 already ^^
Ahead of the curve. Nice!
Wow I'm sure some shops in Japan 🇯🇵 🗾 🏯 has lots of cool retro video games.
I know going on a trip to Japan 🇯🇵 🗾 🏯 is really expensive including shopping but I'd really love to go to visit Japan 🇯🇵 🗾 🏯 in the future. It may take a very long time for me to save money for going on a trip to Japan 🇯🇵 🗾 🏯 or I can win the lottery. I've heard Japan 🇯🇵 🗾 🏯 is an amazing country.
Anyway greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪.
Oh yea, theres still a lot to find in Japan! You just have to look at the right places!
Definitely an amazing country and totally worth the experience of visiting it. Highly recommended!
Thank you for watching! 😃
@@RetroMoments Definitely! You are very welcome, mate.
Nice buy's hit them hard 😂😂😂
Thanks haha!
Any store with a cat on their sign has my attention 😸
I have to agree with this 😃
Beautiful store
Oh yea! From inside and out!
Awesome.. wish i had a thrift store like this near me.
Hey man! Yea, this the thrift store we all want nearby!
So happy its just a 30 min walk from where I stay!
cool stuff indeed
Thanks man! Glad to see you back in the comments!
Can't go wrong with Warioland. It's a great game.
Definitely not! Eventually, I will pick up all Wario Land games here in Japan.
So wonderful!!!!!! ♥️❤️😍🥰
Incredible atmosphere in this store! :D
I love japan for its retro game stores
Oh yea, we all do! Have you been there?
@@RetroMoments have not but hopefully someday, i play nothing but Retro games from gba to gbc and lots of shmups lolz
Awesome! I just play retro too actually. I hope you come to Japan one day.
Man absolutely mind blowing how cheap these games are in almost like new condition complete with everything vs American retailer on pre owned titles are outrageous.
Riiiight!? This place has some really good prices. I have to get back here and get some more stuff.
Oh yea, prices on retro games in the US and Europe just keep increasing all the time... Japanese prices are catching up, but at least there are stores like this one still.
That would be hilarious. Maybe it will get there one day... Who knows!
Very cool and neat store. How about taking a deep dive into Gameboy/GBC/GBA?
Right!? Dude! Great suggestions! I have some GB games to buy on my list!
Great video bro I want to see Turbografx and Sega Saturn GameCube 👍🏿🙏🏿❤️
Thanks bro! Great suggestions! I need some games from all 3 of those consoles!
Wow great video
Thank you Anthony! Theres more on the channel!
nice to see normal prices from 10 years ago. ^___-
Haha right!? Theres actually som good prices here of stuff!
More notes 2: in order for us to enjoy this, it really needs to be 4K and slow, or FHD but REALLY slow, today's vid is unfortunately neither, but nevertheless I enjoyed, see if you can upgrade the camera or just go even slower. Thanks!
Thanks. Absolutely, slower sounds good. Thats why I asked what people wanted to see. This was supposed to be a quicker video just to show off the store in general. Looking at a new camera right now.
I am hoping to see a deep dive into the games for all the Xbox consoles.
Cool! Maybe. Japanese Xbox games are quite hard to find actually. Was never popular here.
The thing of dreams that place!
Haha right :D
Amazing
Vincent is in the house! Right!? Thanks for watching!
Isn't Rockman Megaman? I loved all the Megaman games growing up.
Correct! Its called Rockman in Japan. Oh yea, me too! Classic games!
bro i saw chrono trigger and secret of mana on the shelve , i'd love to have those in box @_@ need to take a trip to japan to this store
Oh yes! Beautiful and timeless games! Very common games in Japan though.
You definitely need to come here!
Hi m8 cool video 😎 more gameboy console? Are they getting expensive? I shall finally be in Tokyo on Saturday morning cant wait to shop if theres anything left i keep hearing stock is low and very expensive?, hope u are around in Akihabara next week 😂 show me around lunch on me 👍
Hi Wicket 😃 Thanks, glad you liked it.
More GameBoy coming for sure!
Wow nice! Akihabara is low in stock and prices really did increase. But your best bet is Surugaya still.
Otherwise I recommend you going outside the city and visit stores there. It most likely could be a big difference.
Not in Tokyo unfortunately. But I hope you will have a great time!
That Super Famicom for $30 🥰.
Oh yes! A steal of a deal :D
The CIB SNES😍
Oh yes! Beauiful condition :D
Los japoneses tiene la industrial creando juegos durante 50 años.
Es cierto!
Some notes: you may do the voice over in editing and just browse the games silently so you don't get embarrassed filming, I think that will be more freeing, I also like how you inject gameplay scenes of the games you pick up during filming, keep doing that, also pls go up to PS3/Wii U games, they are also kinda retro by now,
I dont know if you noticed, but I was the only one at the game section, and there's loud sounds everywhere. But I did do voiceover in my old videos. I wanted to capture the atmosphere of the store this time. Thank you. Glad you appreciate it.
"Here in Nagåja" 😂 hörde direkt du är svensk. KUL ! Gör fler videos!!
Haha Im keeping it authentic :D Folk gillar inte min wannabe-amerikanska, så kör på som svensk istället! :D
Gött att du diggade videon. Kommer massa mer bra videos. Det kan jag lova ;)
@@RetroMomentsDå har du förtjänat en sub 👍 Hoppas vi kan ses bland hyllorna nån dag !
Fantastiskt :D Tack och välkommen till kanalen! Ah, vart i Japan håller du till? Det tycker jag allt att vi kan!
@@RetroMoments Jag bor i Sverige men åker ofta till Japan. Jag hör av mig inför nästa gång 👍
Grymt!
Wow top loaders are surprisingly expensive
Yea, getting harder to find.
OK thank you so much for the vid I enjoyed it, as I said pls go much slower and thru the games next time, consoles as well, thanks again.
Thank you for watching! I appreciate the input.
pink 3DS 😭💗💗💗
Beautiful, right? Im sure you will get one someday!
The equivalent of a £1000 for that NeoGeo game (13:32), I was always under impression since they (Japan) made the damn thing it would be cheaper there....I guess not boy😕
Oh yea, but thats a rare one! With games like that they put a very high price because they dont want to sell it right away since it draws attraction to the store and so on.
I wanted to get n classic mini nes console n mini snes console from that store big time
Oh yea! Mini consoles are great for convince nowadays!
Always wondered why the have the titles of games in English too in Japan? Our games aren't titled in Japanese.
Video Games in Japan always had English based menu's. But if theres a story or something in the game, thats where it is Japanese. So basically any non-story driven games. Or fighting games, shooters, platformers are 100% playable from the Japanese version. Its great!
Nice
Glad you liked it!
I'm a Japanese game collector living in Nagoya. Did you find any good games in Nagoya?
Oh cool! Nice to meet you.
I found lots of great games in Nagoya! I have friends who live here so I am here a few months per year actually.
Seems like you have a channel too. Ill check it out 😃
@@RetroMoments I'm glad that you seem to be enjoying Nagoya. Nagoya has fewer retro games than Tokyo, but the prices are lower, so it's a recommended place.
I also have a channel that mainly broadcasts games. Please watch it if you like.
Oh definitely, thanks! More videos from Nagoya to come :D Thats true, but I noticed Nagoya has more BOOK OFF's than Tokyo. That was surprising. Oh cool. I will check it out tonight, thanks.
xD there are tons here. Actually i have one ,5 minutes walking from home. Not so big like this one, but exactly with the same stuff. The thing is, after 5 years, it does not blow my mind anymore, actually i find them quite boring to be honest, and one of the many reasons is because they dont renew stuff
Oh where do you live? Of course you get used to it when you see these stores year after year.
Well, let me tell you. Ive been to this particular store several times. And I always find new stuff. And notice games are gone too.
Better than Potato in Akihabara!
Oh yea, no doubt about it. Selection is bigger in Potato though.
Randomly stumbled upon this video and jeez.....all those great and classic Japanese games/consoles/etc are so SOOOOOO cheap in comparison to US used game prices which are super inflated. Also as a fighting game fan, I would've loved to pick up that Super Famicon Godzilla fighting game and NGCD $6 Real Bout game just for my collection lol.
Oh yea, its a huge difference :D Awesome picks! I am a fighting game fan as well. I was close to picking it up but I already have all the Real Bout games on my AES. But Im curious to see how these games play on the Neo Geo CD. If I find a CDZ for a great deal I would probably pick it up! Thanks for watching! More videos to come!
@@RetroMoments Yeah, I figured you were since you talked and showed a lot of fighters in general and the RB series was a treat, I'm also looking forward to the new Fatal Fury/Garou game that's coming out next year or so. And no doubt I'll be watching more of your stuff man, keep doing what you're doing dude. 👍
Ah cool that you could tell that. Oh yea, thats going to be very interesting. I still play Mark of the Wolves and RBS / RB2 a lot. Expecations are skyhigh. Glad to hear that. Thank you so much, man! More videos coming soon! :D
Awesome shop man but what about the sega saturn stuff 😮😊
Totally awesome!
Yea, there wasnt much Saturn unfortunately. Just that KOF95 and a few more titles. Getting harder to find Saturn games in Japan…
Friend l have blue 64 Nintendo and still works perfectly, those joysticks for 5 bucks that you showed , l could not believe , at my place the same thing is 50 bucks, l don't get concept of junk space, why junk if everything works , are those used consoles and cartridges if you buy consoles cartridges would that work in Europe, l know that American products will not work, for Japanese l don't know, l would like to see ps 1 console and games because l had that, it was nice video keep up the good job, greetings from Serbia
Serbia! Cool! Thanks for watching my friend!
So Junk actually doesnt mean "junk". It means it "could" be junk, because everything in that section is untested. So why didnt they test it? Either because they already have several of those games or consoles in stock, or condition is not good enough to sell as "retail" again. So those items go to the "junk section". :) And we all know Japanese people take care of their stuff so thats why a lot of the stuff works!
That Pikachu n64 is $230.......nah you can find those way cheaper elsewhere
It was pristine though. Perfect condition. But yes, you could probably find that particular console cheaper if you're lucky.
The UK had lots of stores now they are all gone its such a shame 🤦🏻♂️
Tough to have a store when everyone are buying out all retro games!
We’ll see how long the Japanese stores will last.
amazing store and prices. please showcase all neo geo and turbo grafx stuff....do they have any kind of PC stuff?
Oh yes, one of my favorites that I will definitely come back to! Dont worry, I wont miss the NEO-GEO stuff ever! And I will definitely dive into PC Engine (Turbo grafx) at one point too. PC is actually harder to find. Except a few game stores of course.
