[@darktetsuya]

always down for an awesome arcade video! (or arcades, in this case!) shoutout to so many of my favorite games, Street Fighter in all its incarnations (as well as the Marvel Vs. series), the SEGA racers like SCUD Race and Daytona, and shmups like RAIDEN, Gradius and DARIUS! so much cool stuff you love to see it.

[@MadPanicGaming]

Much appreciated. Plenty more arcade vids on the way!

[@kylestyle5693]

I make the trip there from Yokohama about once a month. HEY from Taito is the only one I go to. Excellent arcade center and I easily spend about 1-2hrs before eating at Shogun burger nearby. Shumps and old school fighters are my go-to. I plan to go next month when the Kanda shrine festival takes place and book a hotel nearby for it. Awesome video and keep gaming 👍

Jim, there's a lot of arcades in Akihabara. You know such as: super potato, gigo, namco, Taito, space station, and more. Oh, and another thing, gigo Arcades was formerly sega. And I get it sega arcades shut down in 2021, which is the heart of a bummer. Then, after that gigo arcades are officially open since 2022, after I graduate high school.

Afternoon Jim how are you mate? I would definitely pick Taito Hey which had so many Japanese arcades from Fighting, racing, shooting, & others as well! Thanks for sharing & have a nice weekend! 😎👍🎮

[@MadPanicGaming]

My pleasure. HEY is definitely one of the best arcades in the country.

[@eligioiracheta3128]

hey Jim, hope you had fun in these arcades, but of cource you had fun!!!!!. I will like to to go to all of them, but if I had to choose one it will me Taito hay. have a great weekend everybody. 😝

[@MadPanicGaming]

Much appreciated. HEY is perhaps the best arcade in the city in terms of the number and variety of games.

[@VeganBytes]

Scud Race 😮 I remember this from years ago in my local arcade. I've tried to get it working on mame but it just isn't playable for me 😢 Anyways, im hoping to get a trip to Japan in 2 years or so. I'll definitely hire you as a guide 👍

[@MadPanicGaming]

It's a damn fine game

[@kennylee2590]

Def gonna check some of these out when I visit. Thanks! Could you also tell me the song playing during the Gigo 1 segment?

[@giovannyvasquez1099]

Hello Jim! How are you doing today? Welcome back to the video.

[@giovannyvasquez1099]

So, Jim I prefer go to gigo arcades in Akihabara. Because there are variety of games that everyone can play and have fun. I say gigo arcades are the best and most popular place in Akihabara tokyo japan!

[@SubaruMalibu]

Can anyone tell me what music’s playing during the Taito segment? It sounds so familiar, but I can’t place it.

[@MadPanicGaming]

Captain America theme from the Marvel Vs games

[@SubaruMalibu]
