Living in Japan and love sharing cool things I come across as well as what I’m up to! Currently a fan of video games, movies, and Magic the Gathering but will post about anything I think is cool! I also stream on Twitch! https://twitch.tv/thejapanhobbyist
I wish they'd release both PS2 games in a collection for modern systems! I enjoyed Lament of Innocence a lot more than I thought I would.

The Yaominami Hard Off/Hobby Off was a little harder to get to from Shiki station (about a 25 min walk) but they had a good selection of consoles and a healthy selection of retro games. Might be better to get there by car though if you want to check it out. 2/x

One of the best reasons to go to this store would be to check out their "junk" section. Lots of handhelds with various levels of damage, but tons of variety. (Also a little pricy tho)

Nintendo should come out with clear plastic balls with a string you can set your amiibo in so you can make a Xmas tree out of them. I'd buy a treeful of them.

The best carbon capture technology. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

I didn’t like that they added in non-Hobbit material the first time but now I can see how it added story and built a richer Middle Earth world. Watching the extended edition it does feel more like a JRR Tolkien novel, complete with lore and song. I still prefer LOTR more, but it’s good fantasy.

And it works cause in Japan it's so hard to get a gun license that the only people that have them and are allowed to hunt are these old guys that are 60+ who got their's decades ago.

Does nobody know the story of the Tower of Babel? People relying solely on technology will lose technology and then have no way to communicate with other people :P

I have my rirekishos and shokumeikirekishos on Google drive now because of the same thing. It sucks having to work on all that stuff again.
