[coming soon] Japan
Video Game Hunting
2023 |
|

After all this pandemic and other crazy madness going on in this world, it is about time to forget the bad and focus on the essentials! The time is right to jump on the plane and do what I can do best, visit old and track down new retro game stores all over Japan. I can already hear my buddy Scorpion screaming at me from that small island nation - "Get over here!" |

This was maybe my craziest idea to go to Japan at the turn of the year. I never did it before, knowing the overcrowded public trains and places will be reality. But at the same time I always try to find out, what is the best season for vg hunting(?). Hyped by many (Hard Off) youtube videos and tracking down all thouse locations, I was ready for another adventure! Here comes a review to (V)ideo (G)ame hunting 19/20. A journey to the east, featuring Surugayas and Potato |

recall memories -
AKIHABARA 2008 |

Autumn 2008 was best opportunity so far for shopping in Japan. Japanese Yen was really weak and Euro very strong. Also in 2008 Tokyo Game Show was moved (the one and only time) from the second half of September to the 9-12th of Octobe |

| | Da lass ich nach langer zeit mal wieder einen kommentar von mir lesen! Ja hätte nicht
gedacht das corona am ende doch so gnädig ist, und weite reisen zulässt! Vorallem nach
Japan. Kann mir gut vorstellen das da etliches an spielen usw. zusammen kommt. Ich
muss jetzt aber mal fragen ob man sich früher nicht mal über den weg gelaufen ist?

| | Hi, danke! Ja die Grenzen sind wieder auf und man muss nur sein Impfnachweis vorzeigen. Ich muss mich endlich mal hinsetzen und die Erlebnisse der letzten Reise aufs "Papier" bringen (hab es noch nicht geschafft, kommt aber noch). Und ja es ist etwas zusammengekommen ^^ Ob wir uns über den Weg gelaufen sind, kann ich dir leider nicht sagen. Wo sollte das gewesen sein? Gruß | |

| | Kann mich da leider nicht mehr dran erinnern sorry, aber Giso und Henni kenne ich natürlich. Hatte erst vermutet du würdest sagen auf irgend einer Con. Aber es ist wirklich schon sehr lange her. Hatte Steinfurt bereits 2010 verlassen. | |
