  • Time to visit Osu, Akamon in Nagoya for Super Famicom (or as we call it in the west "Super Nintendo") hunting in Japan!
    This is the ultimate guide to buying Super Famicom games in Nagoya, Japan!
    We visit stores like Super Potato, Surugaya, Meikoya, K-House, and Mandarake for the most interesting SFC / SNES games. What can be found? Which are the rarest and most expensive games? Which games are cheaper? Any hidden gems? And is it worth collecting for in 2023?
    Enjoy the hunt!

    I was in this area the week after Golden Week and it was much less crowded - and of course it's all relative compared to places like Akihabara. I wish I had known about some of these stores before I was there because I definitely missed some of them. I spent a long time at Super Potato and the place next door. Both had great selections and decent prices. I didn't realize Surugaya had so much stuff. Thanks for the tour!

      Yea, while filming this it was way more people than usual. But it looks good on camera I think. Oh I see.Yea its easier to miss Surugaya here since its more hidden compared to the other stores. Surugaya is definitely my favorite one. And they have more stores in other cities. Thanks for watching!

    Hi Adam I’m cooking and watching your incredible Video 😊 I started it yesterday just haven’t had time to finish it. Super excited to see the games and Japan and I love that you add tiny video on the side so we can all see what they are ❤ first games you show 3:40 is so cute and wonderful I wish you would write the name under or top of the litte video so I could check the prices probably very expensive on ebay atm eh. Phyco dream repro is $26 Canadian dollars but the famicom is $64.88 Canadian dollars already on ebay 😢 so probably cheaper in Japan lol

    Those super inflated prices; is this only in the big touristy cities or also off the beaten track in Akita or somewhere like that? And if they are everywhere, do you think these prices are there to stay, or is it a bit of an temporary over correction now Japan has opened up again?

    • @RetroMoments
      @RetroMoments  Před 11 měsíci

      Most stores around the city area have prices like this. If you get out of the city you can find better prices for sure. I will be visiting stores outside later for you to compare. Honestly, I think these prices are here to stay. Super Potato and those stores have noticed people are buying up the games anyway.

      Nope. You pay tax directly in most stores. But certain stores like Surugaya have it taxfree, when you buy stuff over 5000 yen! Just ask the cashier for taxfree. And if they say no, you say yes again. Most people dont do it so theyre not used to it.
