what I learned from my years of travelling to Japan for work and second hand shopping is that if you see something you like , grab it! it will most likely not be there again when you go back for it
This. I went to a Trader store and saw a PS Vita that I really wanted. Went upstairs for 20 minutes to look around. When I came back downstairs the Vita was gone
@@XDLR No problem. However I should mention that even if nds is everywhere but it is indeed challenging to find an overall good healthy one, so if you do find good one then grab it.
Really enjoying the last few videos like this, it's cool seeing other sides of your adventures! Always appreciate the Pokémon content to go with everything.
This video is pure gold content for me! I'm not really into Pokemon Go anymore, so the fact that I still get to enjoy Nick's talent and entertainment in his videography makes me really happy. On top of all that, my favorite content in general right now is about learning the Japanese language, culture, and just generally what it's like to be in Japan... So I'll say it again, this video was pure gold!
Thanks for showing off those shops in such detail. Other bloggers just show off the store and move on and I REALLY wanted to see how it actually looks!
Nick, it’s great to see you back with a renewed sense of passion! I will be here to consume each and every one of your videos. You are a great story teller and put together great videos! Kudos to you sir.
I was completely immersed through the entirety of this video Nick! You're an extremely talented TH-camr, and somehow make every one of your video's fun and entertaining to watch.
Such a cool video to stumble upon. Im going to Kyoto, Tokyo, and Osaka next month and looking to have a look at the retro games/consoles so this has been really useful. Thank you.
holy crap this place is a dream land to me. My soldring iron and work station are begging to pillage that "junk" section. God i wish i had access to places like that. So many consoles to mod and fix.
Can I just say that your editing for this is spectacular! As a (fairly newer) editor myself, I love your pacing and storytelling. Seriously great stuff, I'm inspired!
Nice video, man! I've been in Nagoya all summer checking out Game Stores and HARD OFF's. And whats funny is that Surugaya has way better prices than HARD OFF nowadays. Love to see that you came to the same conclusion haha! I still really enjoy hunting in HARD OFF's though. And you can never go wrong with the junk section. Pretty much everything I picked up from there has been working!
When I lived in Tokyo 2016, it was probably the golden days, I got green, blue, red, silver, gold, boxed with the inserts and posters for 500 each. I would take the train to all the hardoffs outside Tokyo to hunt, it was so much fun, oh and I got my pink advance for 2000. Miss them days, other than that, nice vid.
I bought my N3DS XL in 2022, modded it as soon as I got it. I've been going through a few bad situations recently, so the N3DS XL helps me keep my mind concentrated on something and to have some fun/wind down. Great game selection, tons of emulation options, I love the flip form factor on handhelds - just a fun and feelsgood system!
"When kids who grew up with the DS start turning 30" That is currently happening. I am that guy. :) I grew up with all of the early Nintendo handhelds starting from the DMG, but the DS was always my favorite handheld. Been collecting them and very much enjoying it. Would LOVE to take a trip to Japan to go through some Hard Off stores to feel like a kid in a candy store.
Wow! I had no idea about these when I was in Japan in 2019. Now I'm obsessed with going back just to go on a Hard-Off tour xD Thank you so much for sharing the locations!
Not gonna lie, I thoroughly enjoyed these last 3 videos on here. I no longer play pokemon go so i no longer follow your trainer tips channel. But i do believe in your skills as a content creator so i will keep following this channel and hope you keep this channel active.
thanks for the references! heading to Japan in 4 months and was anticipating bringing an extra $1,000 for old Pokemon/nintendo products but that seems super overkill now lol.
It’s funny to hear you mention Hachioji cuz I live really close to that area. Only about 20 mins away by train. Hobby and Hard Offs are so fun to check out. They recently opened one in my town (Hashimoto) and I’ve been stopping in every few days to check stuff out.
I lived and worked in Hachioji for 7 years and used to go to that EcoTown all the time. It really is one of the best places I've ever gone for retro game thrifting.
Awesome video and gives such a great overview of what to expect in Hard Off shops. I think the Book Off chain here in the U.S. is a "sister" company (they also sell used video game equipment but I doubt they sell used PS1's for $2 bucks each and Wii U's for $8 each!)
This is amazing. I wish there were Hard Offs in the US. At the very least there are Book Offs. Maybe one day if I visit Japan. I would honestly want to visit them all like you did since who knows when I would come back. Great video, love seeing these side adventures!
I was just in Japanese two months ago visiting with my friend’s family and I went to book off multiple times and found really good deals on games, but I didn’t even know hard off was a thing too.
Finally, someone made a video about GEN three Pokémon!!! Now I know what stores to look for so I can get a set for my collection, loose games and boxed games. Japan 2024 here I come!
I just found out this place has an online store. currently trying to figure out if i can get stuff shipped to America because i'm not about to spend $130 on a refurbished Dsi XL.
So fun to see. It's like heaven for memorabilia folks like us who grew up with Pokemon and the introduction of handhelds, consoles, internet and so on.
That Latios/Latias GBA was in that same bin there at the game store at 14:40 when I was in Japan in July! Looks like it was there for at least a couple more months, haha. The prices at almost every store were insane for anything relatively popular but especially the busier areas like Akihabara. I ended up only buying a few memory cards and controllers on my entire trip, all at Hard Offs.. I was only really looking for boxed Pokemon games otherwise though, all were at least 50% above Ebay!
I ddn't know you were a Magic the gathering enthusiastic. Please make a video about that with your collection, your favourite format and decks. I'd 100% watch it!
Japan is such a great country for nerd treasure hunting. I went to one of these used stores and got some towels and plastic files for a few bucks Canadian. It's all from these prize that people don't want or got repeats I guess. There was also a store that put PSP game UMDs in a gachapon machin for 200yen. Was pretty cool and exciting to dig out my PSP once I returned home.
It’s honestly so important to buy something you want as you see it on these kinds of trips. On my recent trip I was after a Gameboy Printer, Camera, and Super Gameboy 2… I saw all three in Super Potato Osaka but didn’t go for it because of the price despite them not being as expensive as in Tokyo but I never came across any more until I got back to Tokyo but the prices there are prohibitively high.
Thank you for your awesome video! I am currently traveling in Japan and wanted to check off HARDOFF/BOOKOFF for a GBA SP and a PSP. I knew the farther out of Tokyo I go, the better the finds and the deals.
Yeah in the US it’s so rare to find a store anywhere near as good as the one in this video. I’m in Los Angeles where you can find almost anything generally but the game stores here kinda suck. Very small and limited selection and ridiculous prices.
17:37 i feel like all of the foreigners who are looking for retro stuff overlook Surugaya. the Shinjuku one was an absolute gold mine for me and i barely saw another foreigner in there
The Osaka one closest to Den Den Town was the goldmine for me, found a rather very good condition PSP, which I have nostalgia for Though I hear that more and more shops in Japan are unhappy about foreigners buying them then reselling them
Glad to see you in new adventures, Nick :) I´ve been a follower since you appeared in LuzuVlogs for Gen2 in PoGo Keep up the good content, looooove your ABGT Unofficial Movie. (Also, atm Im studying journalism, would be cool to get in touch for a college article)
Magic Mtg vid sometime? Did you see anything from the convention in Vegas last weekend? Random IHOP 🥞 crossover. Some of my favorite PoGo mons are from various Mtg trips
You're (part) Filipino??! I did not see that coming. Been watching your videos for months now since I started playing PoGo again and yes, they're great. Keep it up man, mabuhay!
I loved going to BookOff and WonderGOO when I was living in Japan. I would go just about every day after school and could spend hours looking through stuff. By the time I came back home, I ended up having to buy an extra suitcase, leave some old clothes like socks and undershirts behind to make room in my original suitcase, and mail some stuff home XD I ended up being right around 2 pounds under the maximum allowed weight limit for luggage (which was SUPER fun having to get from train stop to train stop going to the airport). The prices were super amazing, especially compared to more recent months. I bought all the copies of Gen 1-2 Pokemon I could find, and was easily finding them for $1-2, even found a few Black/White/Diamond/Pearl for under $5 each. Music CDs were also a straight up steal over there. CDs that would easily be resold at places like anime conventions back in the US for $10-20+ were as cheap as $.10-.50 each in the "junk" section, and often looked brand new.
Awesome video, it transported me back to my semester abroad in Japan and I spent a few weekends looking for Pokemon XD Gale of Darkness around Osaka. I would eventually find it for 1800 yen and also bought every gen 1 game for 100 yen each.
My guy, welcome to the hunt!! I did a very simular thing just as the country opened (over 5,000km😅 )and it was crazy! (you might like some of the goods I'm currently unboxing too!) Nice to see you on my feed in a capacity outside Pokemon Go! and as a fellow traveller / gamer I've loved your content in the past, big love!
I bought a Super Famicom Street Fighter junk when I went to japan. Bought for collection purpose, I wasnt even gonna try to use it. But when I cleaned up the connectors, the game functioned fine!
Wait you're a Half Filipino? Cool I dunno that coz I just recently followed you bro. Love all of you contents whether it is Pokemon Go content or these kind of videos. ❤ Keep it up.😊
Idk if youll see this man but keep up the grind and its great your expanding your content and enjoying yourself with these trips and videos im def a fan of this
I visited that store in Hachioji last year many times, and many more times in previous years. I used to live in a city very close to there with my wife called Hino City. The next time you go, I recommend that you visit the Tachikawa train station because nearby there is a department store called Takashimaya and there you will find many more shiny gems. They have video games that you will never find in the USA or other parts of Japan. Unless you pass through Harajuku.
漢字勉強頑張ってね!It helped me a LOT to learn with mnemonics, tying stories to the radicals, readings, and meanings. You'll get there, keep at it :D And thanks for sharing your adventures ^^
I still play my white GBA I bought on release day in July 2001 here in Canada, I remember it vividly!! Still get that old feeling like I'm 16 again when I play it :) She's 23 years old and still going strong!
what I learned from my years of travelling to Japan for work and second hand shopping is that if you see something you like , grab it! it will most likely not be there again when you go back for it
This. I went to a Trader store and saw a PS Vita that I really wanted. Went upstairs for 20 minutes to look around. When I came back downstairs the Vita was gone
I saw a original Nintendo DS for 2200 yen (at least 14 dollars) in the junk section at my local Hard-off store, should I have gotten it? :[
@@XDLR nah, NDS are pretty easy to find and super cheap
@@rittis013 Thank you for the response! :D

pokemon go has had a huge decline folding the covid era everything has its end eventually

I WISH we had stuff like this in America. It would sure beat scouring eBay for a listing of Pokemon Emerald under $150.
I was completely immersed through the entirety of this video Nick! You're an extremely talented TH-camr, and somehow make every one of your video's fun and entertaining to watch.
This video is amazing! I really enjoy researching all the different hard-offs, and I’m glad you enjoy it too!!
I'm loving these videos so much. Please keep making videos like these.
Crystal for $9 💀💀💀 I'm lucky if I can get it for $120 in "good conditions"
And for most American eBay sellers "good condition" means "scratched to hell but still works" lol
@@almond3066😂😂😂😂
Japanese version are much cheaper than European / American. :D
Japanese version=not english
@@BoliLellya lot of the time it’s extremely easy to mod the cartridge or console to make it English
Such a cool video to stumble upon. Im going to Kyoto, Tokyo, and Osaka next month and looking to have a look at the retro games/consoles so this has been really useful. Thank you.
holy crap this place is a dream land to me. My soldring iron and work station are begging to pillage that "junk" section. God i wish i had access to places like that. So many consoles to mod and fix.
Well their slogan is literally "hard off is your dream place" XD
Can I just say that your editing for this is spectacular! As a (fairly newer) editor myself, I love your pacing and storytelling. Seriously great stuff, I'm inspired!
Never heard of these when I was in Japan, but it looks like gamer heaven. Awesome vid!! 🥳
They also have a few Book-Offs here in the States, in California, Hawaii and New York.
research, research, research...
Wow,i'm speechless.Gamer heaven.
Fr
Didn't expect to see you here.
It hurts seeing him pass on such good deals…
Great travel/gaming genre crossover vlog. Nice work!
These recent videos I really enjoyed watching. It must be fun finding retro games and consoles. That’s dope getting them cheap
Well, it's hard times, I think I got to sell my mandolin and sitar collection.
Have absolutely LOVED these last three vids from you!
I love this video! I also visited quite a few hardoff and bookoff during my 2 week visit last February. Japan is the best for 2nd hand goods!
I could watch videos like this the whole day, thanks nick for that little peek into this japan journey!
Thinks GBA's are too expensive in the US fly's to Japan and travels the whole country and still doesn't pull the trigger .........
Hahaha frrr
Who cares he got to socialize with people like woman, and he finally get the GBA he’s been dreaming of. He won in the end 😊
@@paulkendrick4153lmao what the fu
@@paulkendrick4153 "with people like woman" man touch grass redditor
@@paulkendrick4153you a gen z huh
The Hachioji store is pretty close to the Air Force base, and in my experience prices for games are higher in areas with US Military folks nearby 😂
nice video bro! very chill editing
Hi @cakehoarder
So dope! Love this type of content. My inner child is so stoked to see all those Game Boy

Thanks for showing a bit of the camera section too! As a collector of vintage lenses it was interesting to see the prices in Japan.
I'm visiting this channels videos from time to time, i'd love to see more! Hope u doing well Nicholas!

what an game of hunting. Glad it all worked out, when I visit Japan again, I'll have to do a Hard Off hunt as well honestly! Fun video
love this video. as a collector and filipiino, hunting for good finds are exciting.
Finally, someone made a video about GEN three Pokémon!!! Now I know what stores to look for so I can get a set for my collection, loose games and boxed games. Japan 2024 here I come!
On you next trip you should visit the book-offs near Otsu (close to kyoto) they have a great selection for way cheaper prices than the hard offs
I just found out this place has an online store. currently trying to figure out if i can get stuff shipped to America because i'm not about to spend $130 on a refurbished Dsi XL.
Didn’t know you had a second channel! I’m glad I found it😊
So fun to see. It's like heaven for memorabilia folks like us who grew up with Pokemon and the introduction of handhelds, consoles, internet and so on.
This video brought such a smile to my face, enjoy the games!
Hey man it’s been 10 months please come back
this is a dream shop for me. music, games, and video equipment. all 3 are my favorite things.

Two of my favorite things: thrifting and video games! Love your videos!
I recently got into collecting games and starting my own collection of things I find interesting so thank you for sharing I really enjoyed this video
I visited that store in Hachioji last year many times, and many more times in previous years. I used to live in a city very close to there with my wife called Hino City. The next time you go, I recommend that you visit the Tachikawa train station because nearby there is a department store called Takashimaya and there you will find many more shiny gems. They have video games that you will never find in the USA or other parts of Japan. Unless you pass through Harajuku.
They may have underpriced that DSi but when you sell stuff to recycle shops they give you practically nothing so they still made out.
Ey you have a new TH-cam channel?! Congrats!
漢字勉強頑張ってね!It helped me a LOT to learn with mnemonics, tying stories to the radicals, readings, and meanings. You'll get there, keep at it :D And thanks for sharing your adventures ^^
Now this is a true retro game store not like dkmoldies
9:40 I did a quick mental translation "this case is empty. Bring it this way to the register"
I still play my white GBA I bought on release day in July 2001 here in Canada, I remember it vividly!! Still get that old feeling like I'm 16 again when I play it :) She's 23 years old and still going strong!
the 2ds flip is so underrated, love it more than my switch by far
