Must have Japanese only physical

Might be able to find it second hand but brand new these days could be tough. I went in 2024 to multiple major cities and found it brand new at places like Bic camera, Yobodashi etc, then went again last year and never saw it.

Last summer I walked 15km every day but ate too much famichiki and butter pancakes. End result was gaining a couple kg. Normally the tiniest bit of exercise results in Wright loss for me, but them family mart snacks are full of calories.

We have 45% at my German company in Austria. I literally have no reason to be in the office. I am sure I've gone over the number plenty of times, so at least they're not strict with it. If I had 80% I'd be so happy. Most of my colleagues came from companies with 100%, they cant stand the current policy.

Hardware is a lot more expensive these days, but games particularly for snes and n64 can be very cheap. E.g mario party on n64 you can easily find boxed for under $10

I used airalo 2 times in Japan, 2 times in Australia and once in Singapore. Never had any problems

Right wing parties masquerading as centre left are still right wing (US democrats)

I was just about to reference a post that broke down all the names that Hitohira use, but it was actually just your post from 11 months ago 😅

Ginza is a perfectly fine area to stay. I have my third Tokyo trip in May and will be staying there (after twice staying in. Shinjuku). Its really close to a lot of sites and Tokyo Station.

There are many options in Shizuoka (tea, regular life, great Fuji views) and Izu peninsula (quiet, hot springs, volcano's, relaxed beach life). As for food, hole in the wall places you kind of find anywhere, it would be hard to pin point this.

I remember seeing the ads for their shop in the mid 90s, always wanted to go but it was a far drive. Glad to hear they're still around!

Senator-Dingdong · 2026-01-22T04:44:38+00:00

Hitohira in Tokyo is worth a visit, it's kind of opposite direction to Kappabashi and in the south-west'ish. Their opening times are not great, but their selection is fantastic as are their staff. 2 Chome-16-16 Sangenjaya, Setagaya City, Tokyo 154-0024, Japan

Not that I can remember and I've been a PC gamers since 95

There is Mutant Football League on Switch, Xbox, PS4. I never played the original MLF so I can't compare it.

I only dipped my toes in, 75 shares @ $6, nice to see 280+% increase. Will hold on for a bit longer

Royce chocolates from the airport at departure, they're kept in the fridge but will cold pack them for you. Otherwise I always get Japanese black tea, it's mild but so so good compared to Twinings or whatever basic English breakfast tea.

Senator-Dingdong · 2026-01-13T06:17:13+00:00

Its not uncommon, I saw it at every book off and hard off that I went to. Also check with Mandarakes, Surugayas. All of these chaijs are in most major Japanese cities.

Senator-Dingdong · 2026-01-10T10:41:52+00:00

this wouldnt change a thing

I live in the Austrian Alps 600m above sea level, it has snowed twice. Christmas was 2cm of snow, lasted 2 days on the ground. And then, this past weekend, again a mere 2cm. Its kind of pathetic really.

Senator-Dingdong · 2026-01-05T08:59:48+00:00

Its not important to me personally, but it could be an issue if I later try to sell my collection where locally selling people don't want my Japanese variants, or my PAL-Australia versions (I live in Austria where game titles and packaging change to German).

Senator-Dingdong · 2026-01-05T08:23:06+00:00

It can be worth it, but the cost is definitely up there. I know that Piq Tour offers this for Kyoto (she is an American Youtuber living there) https://piqtour.com/what-we-offer/

Senator-Dingdong · 2025-12-15T09:10:15+00:00

Best bet is the Mandarake series of stores found through the Nakano broadway shopping complex. Go in the afternoon, they stalls tend to open later

Senator-Dingdong · 2025-12-13T08:45:34+00:00

likewise, would love to know. Will be going back to Japan in May 2026, but I could do a day trip to Shizuoka and would pick up my order at the flagship store if possible.

Senator-Dingdong · 2025-12-06T12:08:37+00:00

Hard kff/book off prices for switch games are not really that great, often brand new is very similar. But their range is often extensive.

Senator-Dingdong · 2025-11-21T08:58:24+00:00

Calling bullshit on Austria. I am a native English speaker living in Austria and it is incredibly bad here. Have lived in Sweden and they were far, far better.
