I love watching these every once in a while. Relaxes me before I sleep.
same here
Wow the graphics in Shenmue 3 looks amazing in this video
Thanks Pete for the update man im glad your doing well! I really appreciate the video its really cool to see how Japan looks! Stay safe!
Thanks pete for going out of your way to film and upload this for us. japan is an interesting place :)
This video is extremely enjoyable. It's like I'm there with you. Thank you, Pete!
Thanks for all the comments guys, new update video is coming very soon!
Damn, this takes me back :)
I love these types of videos. It makes it feel like we are on a walk with Pete lol.
I really enjoyed this video Pete. Looks like you had a great time!
I was stationed in Japan for a year and loved it. I tell the wife all the time that I want to take her and the kids there. Thanks a lot for sharing your experience Pete. Brought back some great memories.
So jealous of you Petey D: Japan seems so mysterious and awesome. I bet you could literally walk around for hours every day and find something new and interesting.
As a long-time subscriber, it makes me happy seeing you live the dream and take the first step into the weird yet awesome land known as Japan. I've been in Japan (Kyoto) for eight months now, and though it can be overwhelming at times, it's not an experience to be missed. I hope you enjoy your time here.
And while you're in the country, don't forget to try the japanese ice cream, especially the popsicles. It's the stuff of heaven.
Wow, it was cool seeing a normal Japanese town/city. It really looked like you were walking in an anime. Hope you are having a good time Pete, do a video with your host family if you can, we would love to meet them.
Absolutely amazing! I'd definitely want to watch more of this
It's weird, but I love this video! Hope you are having a great time in Japan, Pete! :)
Watching this from the future! I didn't realize you lived in the Shizuoka area! Super cool, it's a great place. I've been feeling a little burned out on Japan life lately and this really reinvigorated me by reminding me of the simple pleasures of just walking around and enjoying little things like the streets and konbinis. great video!
One of my most memorable moments in Japan was getting literally lost in the neighborhood without a phone as I explored. I had to use a tower in the distance that I recognized from earlier as a landmark to make my way back where I needed to be. Place was empty, felt like I was in a video game, but it’s moments like that I will never forget.
Pete Dorr was a Jtube and a video game TH-cam OG haha. Had to walk back down memory lane.
Just the video I was waiting for on this boring sunday!
Japan has always held some sentimental value. I enjoy the food, I enjoy the pop culture, and I've wanted to go my whole life, and now I have another great view of it from my favorite gaming youtuber! Thanks, and hope your time there is amazing.
Oh that time of year again. Pete and his parents go on their annual family trip. Cute.
Pete dorrs channel is the last place I thought I'd drool over a car but that Supra at 15:44 :0 Great video Pete, love seeing what Japan is like through this perspective and not the typical flashy pictures we see of Tokyo and nothing else. Looks like an awesome place.
This is so nostalgic :) It's the same route I took too~ I'm glad to see you had fun with the Nishigami family ^^

Thanks for the update Pete glad your having a good time Japan is rad!
Good to hear you're enjoying your time here and that you're making an effort to get out and explore. Good on ya.
I frequent Akiba quite a lot, so do let me know if you need some help finding Super Potato or any of the other retro stores there. Oh, and you can film in the retro game stores in Akiba, no probs.
Ahh dude I forgot you were going!! I hope you make more walking around videos like this, I really love Japanese streets and architecture so I could watch this kind of stuff for hours. Hope you're having an awesome time!
Waiting for PeteDorr to go Shen Mue mode...
Will you visit the area?
I loved this video, Pete! It'd be great if you made videos like this even when you're back at home, just recording you walking around with your phone! Like a weekly blog where you update with your life, be it video-game related or not. Personally, I'd love that!!
I lived in Okinawa Japan for 3 years as a kid, but I was to young to really enjoy it and we lived on a Military base. You would find it hilarious how tiny their portions are at Mc Donalds. You will also find it scary how many tombs fill up the island. It was an extremely small, confined place.
Great video loved it felt like I was walking with you just hanging out very excited for the next video hope your having fun Pete
I notice how clean the city is am impressed. If only people here in the state can be that clean it would be nice.
You are making me want to hop a plane to visit Japan again right now. :( Really cool to hear about your experiences/impressions. Reminds me of my first time to Japan. Take it all in and enjoy!
Thanks for taking the time to make these video. Good job!
Thanks for the glimpse into Japan, I have always wanted to go but haven't got round to it yet!
Loved this video, thanks for spending the time to make this.
because hes walking, and used to sitting around playing video games.
this video makes me want to go to japan so bad. i would just sleep on a bench or something and walk all around every day. the culture is so different that just going to a corner store is interesting. and virtually no crime, so its safe
Pete, the worlds slowest walker! Have fun, you're living the dream, mate.
You should totally do more of these walking videos!
It's the cities and towns outside of Tokyo that is "the real japan" though, Tokyo is very westernized yet still "japan crazy", it's those more rural places like this that's the real vibe of Japan. I travelled around for 3 weeks, we spent some days in Tokyo at the beginning and end of the journey. Tokyo was the place I liked the least. It was too crowded and busy.
I really loved walking around in Japan. Everything is just so similar, but different. You'll find Super Potato. It's on the western side of the main street, I think in the same building as that NHS/Taito arcade but in the back! You'll have to go upstairs. You can find the logo on the building. Google Maps is your friend.
If you go to the supermarkets you can usually get the same drinks you can find at the convenience stores, but for less than 100 Yen.
We had Qoo here in Germany many years ago. I miss it...
I am learning Katakana right now to prepare for my japanese classes I'm trying to take a few month from now. It's really fun to read it. Awesome video, Pete! Looking forward to more!
It was also a culture crash, even in downtown Tokyo there were lots of stores that just turned you away at the door or refused service because we were foreigners. Many older Japanese people don't speak a word of English. They'd just wave their hand and say "no gaijin" (no foreigners).
Thanks a lot for sharing this with us. I sure wouldn't have the balls to walk around Japan with a video camera.
Unedited raw walk around - I liked it!
wow you say that's more of a "rural" area, when i think rural here in Australia, what your in looks more like a suburb. Hope your having a blast Pete!
I haven't watched the video so i don't how loud he breaths but you know that talking while walking kinda has an effect.
I live in Japan, and it's an awesome country.
Going to Japan is on my bucket list..I'm a little jealous of you Pete
That is amazing! You have an incredible view of Mount Fuji! All I can see from my window is boring houses and some tress. :/ I wish I lived in Japan.
This really makes me want to go visit someday, the culture there is just amazing. Thank you for showing us that!
Really enjoyed this video Pete..Thanks for uploading
cool that you're uploading videos pete !! all the best !!
Japan is where guys like us belong bro. Keep up the travels and games
Looks like a lovely place to live. I hope to go to Japan next year.
great video... always interesting to see Japan and get people's thoughts on the country
this is great pete,keep the up dates comiming
That's cool, I was just in Japan for school in May. I hope you have a great time!
i cant wait to hear about thw whole experience once your back on the postcast
Seems like a nice place, most of Japan i've seen (on the internet) looked very hectic and so on, but this seems like something more to my liking.
You're making me wish I was back in Japan! Thanks for the vid, and I'm glad you're enjoying it.
Great video Pete, please make more if you have the chance / time. Hope you have a great time there.
cool insight pete. didn't expect a video that soon.
I enjoyed the video. I hope to see more. Good luck in Japan!
hi Pete. really enjoyed this video, hope you enjoy the rest of your trip.
Japan looks very clean.
When ppl stare at you just stare back ive done that before and you get pretty good reactions sometimes
Wow I can't wait to travel the world when I'm older. High school needs to end!
Super Potato is easy to find. Walk into Taitio Hirose Arcade. the one with the orange sign. walk into it and straight forward and exit out the back. the you're on the street where Super Potato are. just walk to the right and it's right there
I actually loved this, that you were in the real Japan,the every mans Japan, not Tokyo like everyone has seen online
Thanks for the video, very interesting, and I really felt like I was waking down the streets of Japan with your comments, by the way, pretty clean image, what cellphone did you use to record?
Took pictures in stores ( in Japan ) with my phone, never had a single problem.
I'm envious of his collection too.
I think I'd like to live in Japan for a few months, always wanted to go, the plane ride scares me too much.
Awesome video, I'm glad I got to see them both. I'd love to go to Japan someday. I am trying to learn the language now. Great video
if you run into a tentacle monster in a dark alley, RUN THE FUCK OUT OF THERE, PETE!!!
damn i havent been to japan since '07, Im lucky to have family over there, hope you enjoy your stay over there dude! that place is badass!
I also found Akihabara a bit too stressful, the "geek stores" were so tiny and people walked constantly so you couldn't just stop and browse a shelf for a few minutes without people bumping into you or giving you bad looks for blocking the way. Seemed to be a place for people who knew exactly what they wanted. Not much for browsers like me.
Enjoy it, Pete! Have a great time!
Cool video Pete, looks like your having a lot of fun and stay safe and tttyl bro!
Damn almost 8 years since
Really nice vid, its nice to see other cultures that I may never get to see for myself. Be sure to upload your game finds.
Pete, you should assemble a list of games you wish to acquire and ask the shop owner where they are. They often carry notepads for you to write on too, should you struggle to translate.
this is awesome stuff pete .
I hope you and lukemorse can meet up.
Thanks for sharing Pete.
Hope you have a great time in japan pete :)
Enjoy the trip. Wish i could go to Japan one day. Very impress by how clean the streets look, even on rural place, you find trash in North America.
Awesome video, enjoyed every second of it. Be safe out there.
He's just staying there for a month as an exchange student. So I suppose you have to set something up specifically to meet up with him..
I'm glad you're there, but you gotta post videos more often dude
YASO INABA!!! i think i like persona 4 too much
Pete, if/when you make it to Tokyo you gotta check out the arcade called Mikado (ミカド）. It has the best selection of shmups and oldschool driving gave cabinets. Outrun with the hydraulics. It's in Takadanobaba on the the Yamanote line. Let me know if you want a guide.
Why does petedorr sound so nervous and anxious when hes filming walking around the town/city?
Looks like fun, can't wait to see what you get from your stay :)
I will love walking there while listening on a persona 4 soundtrack.
That's great Pete! You are very lucky!
Pete, I really enjoyed this video! When you went into a store or to a vending machine, I thought about Shenmue!
YOU THE BEST PETE!
Great update Pete!
That makes me feel bad about our 7-11's. It looks like they got all kinds of great stuff, but ours is old hot dogs, expensive small assortment of candy, a billion kinds of beer and cigarettes.
If you come across a video arcade ..would love to see some footage of that.
You hear him breathing? That's a gamer taking a walk
