would’ve posted it in methods of input but turns out you just control it with buttons
Fake edit:
Also, I’m less impressed that it involves the addition of more hardware

yeah that doesnt count at all. also lame and anti sex as hell to be like ‘oh its too far going on a personal sex toy’ no. too far would be something that actively endangers people. prudes

the “too far” framing is so annoying because half their articles are like “new star wars show does fanservice in a way it’s never done before” and then you click in and the article’s like “the JEDI ARE HORNY”
look i’m as much a fan of manny jacinto as everyone else but you can probably find a new angle i’m sure of it

What was that like?
It was real cozy and seemed to be family run and they had all these great hand drawn signs all over the place. Multiple floors. Here are some photos I took. I don’t remember what I bought there. Not any of the games pictures, they were out of my price range. They had a great hint book selection.

Friends was the “secret” good store in comparison to Super Potato. It’s floors are carpeted with woodbookshelves. It was an excellent place to find what you needed. It always had quiet famicom music playing on the tiny Aiwa stereos on it’s two floors. Everything felt places and organized. It often wasn’t crowded so you could relax and take in the many game wonders. Usually they had discount bins below the Gameboy games that had all kinds of treasures, commentorative tokimeki memorial clocks, broken HuCards, plastic cases for wonderswan games.
I’ll deeply miss it. It was the last piece of the Akiba I saw in 2005. I’ll try and collect photos I took if any of it over the years. I wrote more about visiting it last year in my Fukubukuro.
It is closing because the building is being demolished. I noticed there where A Lot of buildings under construction on the Akiba main drag. So not a total surprise but again I’m real sad the Tokyo I fell in love with has dissappeared.

When I first went to Japan in 2005 the sentiment I got from a lot of people was that I had already missed the golden age of retro game treasure in Tokyo. I thought I got some good stuff for cheap, but yeah I imagine in the following 20 years it’s become truly dead.

I haven’t been to Japan in over a decade. All the shops by then had been replaced by AKB48 trading card shops. Are those still around or is it like, vtuber stuff now?
