- Hello guys!
In this video, I visited the biggest Hard Off and Hobby Off in Hachioji, Tokyo. The place is enormous and has a lot of cool stuff, so I recommend visiting if you're in Tokyo and interested in retro game hunting or getting some affordable anime figures.
Inside Hard Off, I discovered some fantastic 🎮retro games and consoles, along with other cool items such as PCs, PC monitors, cameras, musical instruments, and more. Meanwhile, in Hobby Off, I found 🚀 cool anime figures from Dragon Ball, Naruto, Attack on Titan, Baki, and more. I hope you enjoy the video.
I have included some prices converted from Japanese Yen to US Dollars, so please use them as a reference since the values may change over time.

Thank you for watching! 😃
I like how you took the time to record and go through this stuff
Thank you for your kind comment ! Regards !
@@4kjapanspace07 your welcome
Thanks, 4K Japan Space! Will have to check this store out!:)
Thanks for watching🙏! Definitely, if you have the opportunity, I highly recommend it !
@@4kjapanspace07 I had such a blast walking around Nakano Broadway. It's Otaku heaven!:)
@@4kjapanspace07 Pardon me for asking, but have you done a video of the Xmas Trees & Lights at Toho Hibiya Square? Would love to see that!:)
@@raphdude8073 Nakano Broadway is an Otaku haven with many stores where you can find any anime merch you want! I also visited Nakano Broadway, and you can see it in the following link: czcams.com/video/kQEXb_87cOw/video.htmlsi=v0GZZPihDs-7vL5r
@@raphdude8073 Thank you for your kind suggestion! I'm preparing a video related to the Christmas lights in Tokyo, so stay tuned for the upcoming videos!
Love the exchange rate pop up ❤❤❤
Hi, that’s correct! The fluctuation in the Japanese yen against the USD can indeed make shopping in Japan more attractive for tourists. Coupled with the tax-free system, it’s even more enticing. Thanks for pointing that out!
Pretty cool, though I didn't go to a lot of hard offs when I went but I found my goodies
If you have the opportunity to explore more Hard Offs, I highly recommend it. You might discover even more treasures! Thanks for watching!
Looks cool, but that's a pretty expensive used store. Must have rare stuff to warrant that much for it. Are they a 'collector's museum' or intending to sell something?
Hi, thank you for your comment! These thrift stores are very famous in Japan for offering good items in decent condition at reasonable prices. However, there are many pricey items, so in my opinion (above 6 years living here in Japan), it's kind of both. I have seen some stores with unique pieces for collectors, but most items are for sale. If you're lucky, you may find collectible pieces at a very good price, but the possibility of this happening recently is decreasing, which is a shame! Have a great day!
have you seen any digimon figures in shops in tokyo? if yes could you tell me where?
Hi thank you for your comment. Last year I visited the store “Volks Akihabara Hobby Paradise“ in Akihabara. I found very few digimon figures. I wish I could record it more time but at least some are shown in the 18:55 minute of the video in the following link : czcams.com/video/BmBC5NWXyWE/video.htmlsi=kvPvC_0jsKlm8JQP
Additionally, In my experience I would say that Radio Kaikan in Akihabara and Nakano Broadway definitely you can find some figures. I hope you find this useful. In the future I will consider to make a video of about hunting digimon figures in Tokyo, so stay tuned of the upcoming videos! Thanks for watching!
Was this at the one in owada or horinouchi? Both come up when I search for hardoff in hachioji
Hi! it was the one in Owadamachi! it appears me as "Hard Off Hachioji Owada" in google maps. Thanks for watching!
Seems I need to go there probably get a PS Vita this incoming weekend yes!
Hi, sounds like a great plan! Enjoy your visit and your new PS Vita! 😊
@@4kjapanspace07 Hope I get one this weekend in a favourable price!
I hope you could find it at good price! I wish you good luck !
@@4kjapanspace07 I'm here in Tokyo at the moment and will be in Aki on Tuesday hope I get one soon.
@rommelflores2618 Have a great stay here in Tokyo!
Definitely Some Kuul Vinyl *
Hi! There was a section in the store dedicated to vinyl CDs, and it looked pretty good!

You are a bit off there. the PS Vita is the blue one in the top shelf for 16.500 YEN. the ones you said cost around 25 dollars is the PSP.
Thanks for pointing that out! I appreciate your correction. My mistake on the mix-up between the PS Vita and the PSP. Your keen eye is invaluable, and I'll make sure to double-check in the future. Thanks for watching and helping me keep things accurate! 😊🎮
So they went with that name instead of Hard*On
Hi! I think they chose that name to avoid any potential awkwardness or misunderstandings. Thanks for watching!
I want to know about used iphones and Laptops price please
Hi Sure! I'll make sure to cover used iPhones and laptop prices in the upcoming videos. Stay tuned!
Bro when i got to japan ima come back to usa with a full suit case of game ima say i had to leave my other clothes because i got too much stuff
Hi, good to know that you got too much from you visit to Japan! From your comment I guesting you really found very nice and unique stuff. Cool ! Thanks for watching!
@4kjapanspace07 omg I just realized I mad a typo I meant when I get to japan I'm not there yet sadly but I can't wait
Which HARD OFF store is this?
Hi, this is the Owadamachi location. If you search on Google Maps, it should appear as “Hard Off Hachioji Owada”. Thanks for watching.
Still pricy.
Hi, thank you for your comment! I also think it’s still pricey, but if you compare it with prices outside Japan, I think the prices are relatively acceptable. However, recently I’ve been noticing that all retro games and consoles have been increasing in price, and it seems this trend will continue! Thanks for watching!
Those are basically USA prices😑 hate that content creators gave up all the good store now everything is basically the same price as USA stuff
Hi! I share your frustration. It’s true that sharing information can sometimes drive prices up. I also believe that the recent increase in tourism in Japan contributes to higher prices for goods (video games, consoles, anime figures, and merchandise) and services, especially in tourist areas, which also frustrates the locals. Thanks for your feedback!
They make more money off of tourists than locals so it does make sense. I’m sure theres other store that still cater to the japanese market thus better prices
@@crashharmonyroberson5076 yeah I found a book off on the outskirts pay 60 for a vita, 20 for a Wii, and 50 for 3ds. In Chiba
@@crashharmonyroberson5076 Hi, I agree with you. Particularly in the countryside of Japan, there are definitely stores with better prices. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
