I Went Game Hunting in Japan's Countryside. Was it Worth It?

[@goodnightmoon]

i love how you put gameplays on every physical games you're showing, neat!

[@MyRetroLife]

I think I just found my new favorite channel

[@4amLaundry]

Bro stop I've been subbed to you for years haha

[@kenepa-dj9xx]

Very clear info at all the items! I am actually learning something here. Love it!

[@MatSpeedle]

Love that the Hard Off guy subbed, that is so respectful. Recently subbed to your channel myself and now on a binge watch of your content. Watching your videos whilst browsing Mecari for Junk consoles is a dangerous combination 😅Keep up the great work sir!

[@4amLaundry]

Haha thank you! He was cool we talked for a bit off camera. Hard Off does a great job with social media so they really encourage stuff like this.

[@CHALINOROSALINOSANCHEZ]

Song at 2:21 mates ! I'm dying to boogie !

Yoooooo 🙏 Another banger. That dude at the end was a homie lol

Awesome video again, man! Nice to see some Hard-Off's out in the bushes

[@4amLaundry]

Thanks! It's literally always worth the trip haha

Fun, informative and enjoyable as always, love your vids keep it up!!

[@4amLaundry]

Thanks man!

[@mma070181]

People don't seem to understand that places like Akihabara are tourist traps and prices are a rip off. Hell even Mandrake in Hokkaido is cheaper than Tokyo when it comes to gaming/anime related goods. Places just outside Tokyo like Kashiwa are far cheaper and have just as much.

[@4amLaundry]

🤫 Don't tell em lol more games for us haha

[@grumpyoldgeezr]

Chiba is underrated for sure. Although, I gotta say, Surugaya in Shinjuku (the one in the OIOI Marui building) was not half bad when I was there last time. Huge selection and actually decent prices. Much cheaper than in Akihabara. I was surprised. This was right before the pandemic though.

[@atomiswave1971]

Yes, but as I found out in August it's hotter than mercury and you need to understand how to get around on buses and subways. When you get to some of these places there is maybe 1 game you want. Also if your like me and condition is no1 priority you won't find much.

[@mma070181]

@@atomiswave1971 I enjoyed walking around during July and August, you adjust to the 40 degree weather

[@atomiswave1971]

@@mma070181 you do if you don't sweat. I couldn't take my own shirt off. Besides when your wife is with you it's best to keep it short. We went to momotaru Kingdom, it took 90 mins to reach, a train and a bus. I bought 1 game on my list. I'd rather have bought it in Akiba on my doorstep but the wife would have been angry if I came back empty handed. If you an athlete, don't mind travelling and are penny pinching then hard off and book offs are for you.

Perked up when you said “Let’s look at some cards” - but you were looking at carts instead. 😂 Thanks for taking us into the boondocks!

[@Poesghost]

Great video! Love how you show some game footage and below it you show the price with the conversion rate to dollars. I'm looking for Majou Densestsu II for the Famicom. Loved that game on the Famicom.

[@4amLaundry]

Thanks! Be sure to check out my latest videos as well. That's definitely one on my list, I love long drawn out Famicom games like that as they're super fun to figure out, great choice!

I appreciate you noticing that lol

[@PoKaySarina]

I never used to care about buying N64 games with boxes until I saw your channel. There are so many loose games for cheap without a box in Osaka. Now I have to start my collection over 😂😭😅

Thanks!

Its interesting how you can find games all over Japan even the country side.

[@4amLaundry]

It's my favorite part ♥️

[@Tanukieats]

You PASSED on Devil's World ?! :D I would have bought it without blinking ... plus we had it in Sweden back in the day?

[@4amLaundry]

Haha I'm waiting to come across a boxed copy, didn't know you had it in Sweden I keep forgetting that a lot of these non NTSC-U games came out in Europe

[@Tanukieats]

​@@4amLaundry I'm going in October. If I find you a copy I will let you know 😂

It's weird how it's so popular but I just never got into it. Love fighting games just not smash lol

@@4amLaundry ya same. I enjoy other fighting games

[@JustYutaJP]

Had nightmares about the Majoras Mask commercial on TV 😢

I can imagine lol

[@HikikomoriDev]

The prices in these places are overall great, very nice to be able to play and own an SNES game for around 3-5 USD. It's financially more manageable.

Good price on this 8:24 SNES CIB, two weeks ago I looked around for it and the cheapest was 7700

13:38 that Nintendo switch game I saw it at Video Games Plus here in Canada they ship worldwide and have free shipping link on my channel bio lol but I’m not sure if that side of the world gets import fees. Game looks cute hot check it out if it’s sold out lol. Great video I’m enjoying your videos a lot it keeps me away from true crime :) wow rappa the raper ps1 74 cents usd WOW 😮😊

you scoff at Biohazard 2 for $75 but that's a damned good price these days. It was still $50 8 years ago CIB.

Oh absolutely, when a $75 game is one of the more expensive ones for a consoles you know you're spoiled

@@4amLaundry if you play them all in 1 year, I'll donate 20 to your PayPal. You just gotta stream it and explain all the rules. Easy moneyyyy

[@4amLaundry]

I think if I count all the games I own it's less than 100 as I don't really buy games I don't play, other ones I just play on Everdrives. But deal! (If I have to do Steam I'm fucked tho lmao)

[@katmanfoo9404]

@4amLaundry yeah I wanna see the games and how they're played. It's just a little challenge. No big deal if you can't do it. I think it jokes around at the idea of buying stuff to have stuff instead of taking the time to truly appreciate the thing you have sitting on a shelf. I can relate as I have WAY too many ps1 and N64 games just sitting on a shelf. I'm slowly working on the back log but a lot of the rarer ones are still untouched. Either way, I'd love to watch the content.

@@4amLaundry See that you do. It's a whole new world you should try and the games are certainly more challenging than the Nintendo side of things. This is coming from someone who had the 'best of both worlds'.

That hard off behind the counter guy has potential to make 1000s of bucks on ebay. Imagine he gets a rare item come in, buys it at staff discount, pits on ebay. He also has your channel as a guide.

Worth it? No, its not. The video is informatieve, yes, but all of that items is very expensive. Try Osaka, there is 2-3 times cheaper.
