    I went to Japan as an exchange student in the early 90's. My host brothers and I played Street Fighter II and Super Bomberman on the Super Famicom and it was one of the greatest experiences of my life. But what really hit me was a few years later I got a phone call from a Japanese guy that asked for me in broken English and after a few minutes an American man got on the phone and explained he had an exchange student and lived in a suburb 45 minutes from me. It was my younger host brother. I drove over there to see him and spent the day hanging out. Mind blown.

      日本は1920年と1922年にシベリアにいたポーランド孤児765人を救いました。ありがとう日本。
      I am Polish . Do you know this story? In 1920 and 1922, Japan rescued 765 Polish orphans in Siberia. Poland asked Japan to rescue a Polish orphan in Siberia. Japan promised to rescue immediately.
      The smallest orphaned child was 2 years old. The child was crying near the dead mother. The Japanese rescued the orphan immediately. The child told the dead mother "Goodbye Mom". Japan rescued a total of 765 Polish orphans.Japan sent orphans to Japan for treatment.Orphans ate delicious and warm meals every day. All Polish orphans have recovered. Almost all Japanese donated money to save orphans. On the day of return, all 765 Polish orphans returned to Poland safely.
      In 2018, an elementary school commemorating this was completed in Warsaw. Thank you Japan. God bless Japan.

      Wire haired Dachshund you do realize 90% of the things you own are from Japan or inspired by old Japanese products. Any of those cartoons you watched growing up were inspired by anime (yes anime was before looney tunes). Most of those video games you love all come from Japanese founders of the entire industry. The cell phone, laptop, pc you used to comment guess what.... Japan. I love America don’t get me wrong but you really think japans shootings, obesity rates, unemployment rate, education system, and crime rates are anywhere near as bad as ours? Most of the statistics you look up at per capita so you can’t even throw the “population” card. Plus you do realize how many people are on disability in America where basically no one is in Japan 😂. There’s a reason we’re called American pigs

    Amazing video, glad to see Metaljesus had a chance to go out to Japan and experience the retro gaming scene there. I had the chance to study abroad in Japan when I was in college, and as a game collector myself, I can only describe my experiences in Akihabara and game stores like Super Potato as sensory overload. As shown in the video, the sheer amount of merchandise for sale in these shops is just overwhelming and it's so easy to burn through all your spending money for a trip like this.

    I've watched this video probably a half dozen or more times and live vicariously through this trip. It looks like my dream vacation since I've always wanted and even planned to go to Japan a few years ago but my car broke down and all the money I saved I had to put into buying a new car...and that car broke. ONE DAY I will make it to Japan but until then I will watch this video. I appreciate you sharing this experience and would love to see you traveling back to Japan or other places even in the US to do game hunts. This seems like a very special trip with great company and good friends. I don't know Kinsey but you can just tell she is an absolutely positive person to be around and knows how to enjoy life and have fun. Your channel is amidst my favorite on TH-cam and seems to be unique unlike many others. Not to say others are bad but you wear your inspirations and passions on your sleeve and it comes through in the video. Keep it up Jason.
