I have an interesting story about this particular Super Potato. On their front door I spotted a photo of the comedy duo Hanamaru-Daikichi Hakata which visited the store. It probably seems unusual that a foreigner would recognize any Japanese celebrities, but in this case Hanamaru Hakata played Dr. Haima Kagami in Kamen Rider Ex-Aid (ie. the video game themed show). =)

When you show this video, it's every 80s, 90s gamers dream to visit Japan. The world of little boys dream is VIDEO GAMES from the world of Japan. It is like every princess wants to go to World Disney. 100 yen is $1. Just take the last 2 digits of the number and that's in US dollar.
@MadPanicGaming3 жыл бұрын
Actually, with the exchange rate now, 100 yen is about $0.91 or $0.92, a good time to buy Japanese.

3:50 King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match, I own a PS2 copy, and have watched many videos on the game, so I recognize the intro. And as usual, many games there I'd want, but don't want to make my wallet cry. And of course some games there, like that Gradius II PCE CD, I have in my collection. I saw that boxed MD Crayon Shin Chan, under $20 there, but good lord, Ebay prices for it are not nearly as kind.

So, is Super Potato generally more expensive than other places? Some of the prices I could make out seemed somewhat higher than even eBay prices. Or is it really dependent on location?

It's an OK place if you're looking for very specific things in the best condition possible, as long the purchaser doesn't mind paying the premium. I get some requests for rare and expensive titles, games that'll cost a boatload no matter where you find them, so just make it easier and check shops like Super Potato and Surugaya. Like I said, after I was done filming I had them open up a couple of the cases. Also, a lot of their loose carts and common games aren't really much more expensive than you'll find in other places.
