Living Vicariously Through My Brother - Super Potato And Ojamakan Fukakusa Store Japan

If there's one thing a lot of collector's associate with Japan, it's the video game scene. The stores are big business, but come with their own layer of risk. Purportedly, one must be very careful when buying video games from local stores, lest they unknowingly pick up a bootleg. Point being, while the shops are large, offer a wide range of new and used items across multiple generations, buyer's need to be educated.

My brother is big into video games. That's like his niche, and what he spends a lot of his time doing. As such, he was really excited to walk through Super Potato. However, he quickly found pricing to be way higher than he was expecting. He was on the hunt for the old school Nintendo Game And Watch handhelds. Unfortunately, at $300.00 each, he ultimately had to pass on them all.

He also walked past a game station center, which appears to be an arcade of sorts. He didn't specify if any of the images above came from that location, or if everything was from Super Potato.

Lastly, he went by a smaller mom and pop store, Ojamakan Fukakusa Store.
