Thanks for watching, everyone! I had a great time getting rained on and looking for games. One thing, my original music selection for the walking section had to be replaced due to a copyright claim that I didn't feel like fighting, so we get something much more generic, lol. Anyway, hope you enjoyed the video, and I'll see you on the next one.

I love how you can pick up consoles and games for around a hundred bucks. I still have a weird love for the Saturn. One day I'm going to start a new collection and just chill on the ancient vibes. I love that I get to go game hunting in Japan. Never stop making these. I always feel a sort of way as soon as the intro hits. Excellent.

Afterburner showed up in the US as a Tengen cart for the NES, but still completely unlicensed. Plays really well, regardless, way faster paced than the Top Gun titles.

You could "hear" the heat and humidity when you stepped outside with the Cicada's. Nice pick-up you had there on the PCE shuttle, as it looked in excellent condition. You should get yourself an electic cargo bike with rain cover. That way you can cover a lot of ground, still get your exercise and pick up bucket loads of games, consoles and other stuff ;-)

That's a good idea, I might go with that. Oh, and yeah, you can literally hear the humidity lol, it's more like swimming than walking.

I've been to an outdoor flea market here before, but I don't know how common they are. I think places like Nakano Broadway serve as a sort of flea market, some of the shops allow people to sell basically whatever they want if they pay for the space.

Would be cool if you showed more obscure stuff instead of stuff you think we'll recognize. Skipped over Another Mind on PS1 which is about a nurse who gets into a car accident which causes another consciousness to form in her mind--and that's the player's character. You are another mind. Do u get into that kinda weird shit? If you do, would love it if you covered it more so I could discover new weird shit to buy. Love weird shit.
@MadPanicGaming3 жыл бұрын
I tend to stick with games that would be easy enough to play without understanding Japanese, that's mostly what people request from me and mostly what I play too aside from the occasional RPG. I could make a video in the future covering some more obscure games though.

@@MadPanicGaming yeah i get im not your target demographic haha. but even for those who don't understand japanese at all, might be fun to find out about some games. some other odd PS1 stuff got recently: 町運命の交差点、夕闇通り、鈴木爆発. definitely recommend checking out these oldschool adventure games. unique fun experiences. Another Mind was made by Square if im not mistaken.

Not really. Since Nintendo, Sega, and Sony release their games in Japan first, there is no market for NA import games. Once in awhile, you do see NA games mixed in with games for the same console, like SNES in the SFC section.
