I agree. Very fond memories of playing this in the early 2000s. I now play a lot of Euro Truck Simulator in VR (with wheel etc) when I have the time away from work. I would kill for a new bus sim with a recreation of Japan.
BTW, I was in Odaiba last year and the way we got there was by taxi. Unable to figure out another way using public transportation. Probably there are some, but taxi is easy and reasonable price if you share the taxi with more people
Thanks for the comments. Yeah. I was disappointed to miss out on Odaiba because I really wanted to go to Joypolis. We basically just ran out of time. We also didn't investigate buses or taxis -- just stuck to subway and trains. But oh well. There's always next time. :) Thanks for the comments. I'm working on the second course of Tokyo Bus Guide. I've actually managed to map the route exactly using Google Maps, so it should be a good video. This game is surprisingly accurate.
I discovered this game few days ago and I couldn't resist. Order placed to one of the Ebay Japanese sellers. Waiting to receive my original DC copy of the game. The DC emulation in PC is quite disappointing and I want to experience the original experience using my Japanese Dreamcast. I learned a lot from your video, something I really appreciate due to my totally lack of Japanese skills. Looking forward to check out your next video! And if you visit Odaiba next time, check out Daikanransha. Awesome views from the top. I also want to visit Japan again :) Subscribed!
Thank you, sir. Original hardware is the way to go, and luckily, this game is pretty cheap. There's also a sequel on PS2, which I own but haven't dug into yet.
Does this have a free-roaming mode... GTA style I guess, not necesarily in the way of murdering pedestrians or anything, just driving arround without worrying anything else.
Thank you for taking the time and effort to put this video together! It was really interesting and informative. Loved all the commentary :)
Love these Japanese transportation simulators of the mid 90s - late 2000s (Densha de Go! and Tokyo Bus Guide)
Densha de go is still alive : new game will come on December 2
Given how popular weird simulation games are now, Tokyo Bus Guide was a good 2 decades ahead of its time.

I won't say they're popular now, simulators peaked in popularity 2014 with Surgeon Simulator.
He made this look easy. It is super super difficult!!
This is strangely relaxing. Same with "Densha de Go!" videos. I swear, I could watch these for hours. :)
I would certainly buy a bus simulator game, focusing around the bus lines in Tokyo area. That game with modern graphics. Man...
try playing proton bus simulator with mods
I tried this game few days ago and with my zero Japanese knowledge I was failing persistently. Your video is very helpful. Thanks for sharing!
Japan simulation game more concern with simulating the experience rather than the technical aspects, that's why I love it
I don't know you but I already love your channel
I bought this game in akihabara, great memories I have.
The train running with the bus is [Yurikamome]

I used to love this game!
Recuerdo que lo busque para PC porque no se me llamo la atención cuando lo ví en un video " evolución de los juegos de buses"
I'm wondering what's the name of the Song in Rainbow Bridge in this Game.
Sad, there is no english version of this serie. It would be good.
4:47 its something like wrong lane.
Maybe you slightly clipped into the right turning lane?
Or you blocked the right turn lane?
Maybe just bug.
Maybe you have to be on the left most lane?
Niceeee
