Destiny seems to visit Japan very often! Great video! (also naughty camera angle 13:13 :D)

[@mellowgeekstudio]

Nice anime homage.

[@BushinRyuCat]

[@fernandobravo2000]

Happy to see you two again!! Thank you for sharing!

[@MadPanicGaming]

Thanks for watching!

[@FranchisePlayyer]

The price on that rare Dreamcast was insane! I'm glad to have found your channel this year Jim, keep it up!

[@AggelosKult]

Great way to start a Sunday with a Mad Panic Gaming video!

[@MadPanicGaming]

Much appreciated.

[@MarshallLando]

ikebukoro is underrated. love it

[@imperiallobster6394]

I stayed in Ikebukuro earlier this year, so I was quite excited when I saw the title for this video. I liked Ikebukuro so much that I'd like to stay there again next time I visit. I played the same Space Harrier machine at Mikado 23:36 so seeing it in this video is really cool.

[@invicta6110]

When you scrolled past Master of Monsters @16:22 I found a new import for my want list. Played that a lot as a kid, trying to find a Genesis and that cartridge got me back into gaming years later.

[@RetroMoments]

Another awesome video! Glad to see you two having fun. Hopefully, I can join in the future sometime. And great pickups of course. G-Darius is excellent. I picked that one up a week ago from BOOK-OFF.

[@TheKayliedGamerChannel-YouTube]

Cool share as always - those boxed PCE games getting real pricey 😎

[@TkyoSam]

Jim and Destiny can you both STOP being so friggin' AWESOME!?!?!

dude we ALLLL need to hunt together when I go back!

[@knuxtaben]

Good old Ikebukuro. I lived there in 2017 and loved frequenting The Super Potato and the Book Off. Next time you're in the area if you can be bothered taking a small 10 minute detour from Ikebukuro station, there's a smaller unknown Book Off Plus in Kanamechou. Scored myself many good deals there including a very cheap Metal Slug Second Mission for the Neo Geo Pocket Colour.

[@MadPanicGaming]

Thanks for the tip!

[@GlennGrim]

Cinematography on this episode was very nice 😎

[@MadPanicGaming]

It's the kind of thing you can't teach lol

[@MarketingMovies1337]

I remember I went to Ikebukuro just for Pokemon Centre, I stayed for the Super Potato and the other shops around

[@MadPanicGaming]

There's a lot of cool stuff in the area.

[@vprime]

Loved the Snatcher T-shirt!

[@MadPanicGaming]

One of my favs, got it at a Konami pop up store a couple of years ago.

[@glimmeringharpy]

Omg these finds are amazing! 🤩

[@silverian]

Great quality time with Destiny and pickups!

[@Pewpewpew182]

Loved the use of the Razzy 16 Jazzy NYC track. Good for that moment. Great video 😊

[@MadPanicGaming]

Thanks!

[@Nelsea7190]

22:31 i was sitting on right side cab of initial d Zero last mid November. i also lost my suica card with 10kyen or so on it from the walk to and from metro to that arcade... still enjoyed the visit alot. i visited both locations during that visit

[@ytsid0980]

Wow it looks amazing there great video ❤

[@kubakiller]

Gdarius actually has 2 arcade releases, ver 1.0 and 2.0.

[@MatthewOceanXVX]

Hey Jim, hope you've been well. Catching up with all your videos from the past month. Been busy with life and all that. Glad to see you're still putting out that sweet good good content.

[@Daveyj666]

Great video Jim, loving your content.

[@MadPanicGaming]

Thanks!

[@Dongled]

One of these days I'm gonna make it to Japan and go game hunting with you and Hapa!

[@MadPanicGaming]

We`ll leave the light on for you.

[@selbyjohnson5986]

I went to that Surugaya in Ikebukuro once and all I saw was anime goods. I guess I missed another floor with the games! I thought maybe I was at the wrong place haha

[@darktetsuya]

speaking of MIKADO, I JUST got my copy of RAIDEN 3 X MIKADO MANIAX... don't know if i'm as into it as I was RAIDEN 4, but hey more RAIDEN is never really a bad thing. great idea with the pictures especially if there's any kinda language barrier going on. some solid pickups for sure! eventually will have to pull the trigger on an actual copy of DARIUS Twin, but I have the digital collection with it in the meantime! (and been so sidetracked collecting for saturn anyway it might be my favorite system at the moment... found a really cheap copy of real bout fatal fury so just waiting for it to get here!)

[@AvalancheReviews]

I guess I just thought.......these kind of videos was OUR thing...😢😢😢

[@eduardocastillo2237]

[@charleskelley4528]

Destiny has a huge personality 😉 She knows what she’s doing, and I’m not complaining . Great Video as always 👍

[@jakesmith5278]

I like the Mexican Chung Li.

[@georged7627]

Wonder why your views are up in this vid 🤔🤘🏾😁 Destiny rocks 🙏🏽

[@eduardocastillo2237]

I play many of these games in my xbox classic in final burn alpha emulator and my cell

[@X_Leonhart]

Are you recording with a GoPro? Because if you are, I’m pretty impressed that you managed to get so high quality footage in such a low light environment.

[@zZiL341yRj736]

Got me with the thumbnail. God dammit.

[@louisp.2798]

[@MadPanicGaming]

I'm a teacher and I do various freelance jobs

[@atomicpuppet]

Great video! Where do you find your remixed songs that you use in your videos at?

[@MadPanicGaming]

I've had this stuff in my music library for years, but I found it all via KZbin, KZbin studio, Google, soundcloud etc.

[@SharifSourour]

I love Magical Drop! I have all 3 of them on my Saturn.

[@fazares]

fantastic stuff...that limited dc was quite the prize item eheh..i own magical drop 2, along with the prequel, on a data east snes retro-bit cart compilation...very nice game..i also own md3 on the nintendo switch..g-darius is one of my favourite ps1 shmups..i too own the japanese version

[@doomprojectgaming9259]

Yay for a new video!

[@MadPanicGaming]

Your enthusiasm is appreciated 👍

[@chocolocojames213]

She's right. Akiba is kinda dry, I was just there a few weeks ago. Still, Tokyo is so fun 😊😊😊

[@Mahoromatic]

heard that Akiba peaked in 2007.

[@SharifSourour]

You better be hitting that bro. LOL it’s your destiny! 😂

[@jks1311]

you're hilarious jim lol

[@Googlesucksballs]

Magical Drop 6 came out a few months ago but sadly I think currently it's digital only on consoles and PC. But Forever Limited is doing pre-orders on copies for switch but since that is a EU company shipping is going to cost a arm and a leg to get it to the states.

[@TopRetroGames]

Wow

[@adamh7588]

Amazing as always 😊😊

[@MadPanicGaming]

Thanks!

[@countD8852]

Wish I knew about these arcades when I was over there in May! Oh well, next time. 5:40 - This is going to sound weird, but Asahi Cola tasted more like Pepsi to me than Pepsi or Pepsi Max did. 18:55 - Pretty sure I played that Spawn game more than any other Dreamcast game. I need to import a PS2 (I say, having just started a JP 3/DS collection)

[@JJUniverseChannel]

Awesome video man 😎!

[@Just10H]

hell yeah some toonami music

[@forcedfeedbackclassicgamer5499]

Yes, G-Darius was an arcade game, but the console version was originally exclusive to the PS1 until the HD remaster that released last year (maybe it was 2021?).

[@Bloodreign1]

Taito Memories PS2, and Taito Legends 2 PS2 included the arcade release on both compilations.

[@curl485]

Remaster is on ps4/5, I enjoy It 😁

[@DierenBrigade]

First game you play with destiny : BALLOON FIGHT 🎈😋

[@jayt2917]

Damn i miss Japan 🇯🇵. Great video Jim 🍺

[@MadPanicGaming]

Thanks!

[@kameronmarshall1613]

@Destinyfomo has the same iPhone color taste 😂

[@danholo]

BTW do Japanese arcades still use coins in the machines or do they employ an entrance fee model, or are there both? The machines in the video look to have the 100 yen coin slot at least.

[@MadPanicGaming]

They take coins, some 100 yen and some 50 yen, and some arcades also include card scanners with their machines that take train cards etc.

[@dexocube]

I love Darius Gaiden but I've never played G Darius. Weird.

[@MadPanicGaming]

I`d have to say Gaiden is the better game overall, but G Darius is still really good. Definitely worth playing.

[@xberserkx]

Where did you get that Snatcher shirt??

@@MadPanicGaming As always man

[@rockhyde7775]

When it comes to arcades, us in the west are stuck with the same old 80’s stuff (I’m tired of seeing Donkey Kong, I want those modern Japanese cabinets and EXA without having to travel to Japan) we’ve seen a million times and the generic crap, but none of the cool Japanese cabinets showing up in Canada or the US these days. I even called these local arcades to see if they got anything from EXA or any cabinet imported from Japan. Sadly they did not. My search began after I saw a Tetris Grand Master video from Seattle btw.

[@HonkeyKong54]

Lol the states had some of the greatest cabs ever

[@HonkeyKong54]

Also if you want one of these cabs in the video they aren’t even that expensive. They will be to import though.

[@rockhyde7775]

@@HonkeyKong54 Hopefully they weren’t the same 80’s cabs we’ve seen a million times. Not that I’m dumping on peoples’ nostalgia, it’s just that they’re everywhere and I’m kinda tired of seeing them (because they’re everywhere at arcades within NA) and wish more modern Japanese cabs showed up in Canada and USA.

[@rockhyde7775]

@@HonkeyKong54 I am aware that I have to import these.

8:38 Nitro Punks Mighthead, aka Rocky Rodent in the US. I bought the Japanese version last year as it was cheaper, and it came with F1 Circus Special from Nichibutsu. Magical Drop 2 SFC remains elusive to me to this day. Ebay prices from the rare US seller is always bad, the only one is a boxed copy with the stickers, asking price, $74.99. Twice I had some nice long posts, but KZbin ate the damned thing twice. Not one offensive word in it for KZbin to do this. This app continues to get worse, and worse to use.

[@MadPanicGaming]

I`ve noticed several comments on recent videos from people stating that their comments were deleted. I`ve never deleted any comments so I`m wondering what the hell is going on.

@@MadPanicGaming KZbin censor bots have been the problem. If they think anything is offensive, or close to sensitive, they auto delete comments. They keep this up, they'll keep losing content creators.
