I can't believe you were in Japan at the same time as, Metal Jesus, Wood and Bob, and Elliott. And pretty much did the exact things, BUT DIDNT MEET UP WITH THEM. missed crossover opportunity of a lifetime

@MachoNachoProductions 7 месяцев назад

Elliot was there before and metal Jesus, Bob and Wood i believe were there after me. We all just missed each other. Would have been amazing to meet up with all of them!

@rockhyde7775 7 месяцев назад

Most games are typically cheaper in Japan but sometimes you can find rare and expensive ones there as well. Not counting brand new games of course. What I mean by that are the recently released ones, I wanted to make sure there was no confusion. Nice to see physical media doing just fine in Japan. It’s why I’ve always wanted a Japanese game in my possession when I was a kid unlike what I have now. Been importing stuff from Japan ever since and I’m loving it.

I've really enjoyed your Japan series - thank you for putting those videos together! Great advice on setting a budget and having an idea of what you want before shopping - I've done the same thing at vintage gaming shows... but still, I would've had to rent a barge to ship all the stuff I couldn't resist!

@salva_75 7 месяцев назад

I adore popping into BEEP whenever I'm visiting Japan but have never been brave enough to buy something from there. Sure looks like you picked yourself a Sharp X68000 - if you did, well done and good luck! The shop right next to BEEP is Surugaya which is where I bought some really great items just a week ago, although the number of retro game shops in Akiba is dwindling, those that are still there are still offering great material.

@Henjo29 7 месяцев назад

In a lot of the shops items are listed as "junk," but it's mostly common, untested stuff that they have a too many of. Most of the items work perfectly fine, unless noted.

@MachoNachoProductions 7 месяцев назад

I've always dreamed of doing such a trip! Maybe one Day! Thanks so much for uploading these, they had a lot of good tips where to look and what to watch out for. I'm not honestly sure what I would want to hunt for if I ever did such a trip 🤔The Language barrier in the games would make it pretty hard to justify picking up somethings.... Honestly I'd probably just go ham on trying to collect Game and Watches

@MachoNachoProductions 7 месяцев назад

You’ll definitely make it out there one day, I know it! I’m so glad you enjoy the videos and find them helpful 🙏 I mostly got consoles and games that I am very familiar with so that I am still able to play. Also games that don’t require reading like some fighting games. I should have gotten a game and watch, definitely next time 😅

Have all retro game youtubers all been sponsored to go on a holiday to Japan recently? This is like the 6th Japan vlog i've seen in the last 2 weeks.

@chrisv.4279 7 месяцев назад

Basically, yes. The country was closed to travel during the pandemic and only just recently opened up for normal non-guided visits, and they want to let people who might go spend their money, like retro game enthusiasts, know and be tempted to go themselves.

@geetsthenerd 7 месяцев назад

@slpstrm6952 6 месяцев назад

I've never had the chance to get to Japan yet but it's on my bucket list, definitely a great place to go for some retro gear & great food looking at your video. I also just love their culture and would have to stay at the Godzilla hotel as it is one of my all-time favourite movie series. Thanks for the videos of your trip and the effort you put into all your videos, keep up the great work. 🕹️👾🔫🎮.

@TravisSimpson 7 месяцев назад

Awesome! I'm headed there next year, likely going to pick up a ton of stuff. What do you think is a better plan? Bring an empty suitcase(s), ship things home, or buy a suitcase there (avoid paying to ship empty suitcase). I can see myself buying multiple cib consoles so I'm probably going to at least need to ship something back

@MachoNachoProductions 7 месяцев назад

I wish I brought an empty suitcase. It would have been the cheapest way. I actually just had a carry on and backpack. Most airlines include a free check in. Shipping would have been too expensive.

@miguel360kmc 6 месяцев назад

In the late '80s early '90s there was a VHS video game system that came with guns similar to duck hunt Nintendo gun 🔫 I want to say there was even a backpack involved i cant remember. I had two VHS tapes The haunted house and the jet pilot. The movies you walk around first person view a haunted house ghost pop up and you have to kill them and it actually kind of reacted if you hit or miss kept track of the score live action person pops up from time to time talking you through the levels. It was hands down the coolest weirdest retro gaming tech ever

@Toolness1 4 месяца назад

I want to go to Japan so bad but by back is too messed up for such a long flight and all that walking. Hopefully it improves to where I can go someday. Lots of things there I want to see. Godzilla store, Anime stuff, historical attractions, and although I've seen then 4 times here I'd love to see a "home" Babymetal concert and get the true experience.

@MagisterHamid 7 месяцев назад

@judsonrodriguez8328 7 месяцев назад

Yeah its a x68000 you can tell based on the bag has the square crease. And in add-on you see the wrapped keyboard above it....its a big computer so a bag that size probably only thing. Cant be PC98 or Towns as those would be too big for the bag and MSX to heavy....99% its a sharp x68000 wonder what type he got...super, ace or XVI.

Japanese cover for Super Smash Bros is definitely better but surprisingly the Western cover is quite good too and similar to the artstyle of the Japanese one. And it's a pleasant surprise, especially since the beautiful 2D art of Japanese covers turn into soulless 3D art covers at Western covers.

@RetroFixer101 7 месяцев назад

If it was me I would be look at an X68000 but specifically the X68030 hdd model as it’s an excellent PC that is very expensive here. If you were lucky enough to get one out there replace all the caps before turning it on as everyone I’ve repaired has needed a full recap as they had all leaked and this fixed most of the issues. Original PSU’s can be very dangerous if not fully recapped prior to turning it on. Love the Japan videos always wanted to go there one day when I can afford it. Love their culture specifically for video gaming. Just watched the video again and I’m guessing it’s an X68000 Expert for 99,800 yen which is not a bad price at all especially if it can with the peripherals !!
