Probably the most famous of the stores in Tokyo but definitely overpriced on certain items but great store to see vintage items jam packed over 3 floors

Love that Steve "if you got that Neo Geo money to burn". 😂😂😂😂😂 Summer of lat year I dropped $530 on a US region AES console. I haven't regretted it whatsoever. Now you mentioned the Bandai Wonderswan in this. I can say from owning a Wonderswan and a Swan Color that it is a really cool, neat retro handheld to collect for! I also love when stores in Japan label electronics as "junk". That was how I bought my Final Fantasy IV edition Wonderswan Color off of eBay directly from Japan. When I got it in the mail I didn't think it worked (I couldn't get it to turn on) Years later after keeping it, I discovered it does in fact work it's just the on button is a little finicky. I don't know if you have seen that limited edition Wonderswan Color before, but it's shell is all white with clear translucent buttons on it. Very cool looking!!!! Plus it's the only handheld video game system I know of that runs on only 1 AA battery!!!!

Awesome video! I visited earlier this week and bought all the Mr. Driller games I could find in there, including that new GBA Mr. Driller 2 copy in the glass case at the 12:37 mark. Glad to say I’ve finally been there, it was well worth the hour or so I spent looking at everything.

I treat SUPER POTATO as a museum. Love going there looking at all the rare and expensive stuff, hoping to find it somewhere else haha! But... Super Potato in Osaka and Nagoya are actually a bit better in terms of prices. You can find some awesome stuff in the junk section somtimes.

It's not that it's overrated, just over a decade of youtubers and review sites telling everyone that it's a must hit, it can no longer live up to expectations. Plus, the whole Retro Revival that's been happening since the apocalypse (2020) and prices have gone up. I think even super potato started selling on ebay. 1st time in Japan (2007) and yes, things were insanely cheap. In 2017, prices were not bad, but no longer dirt cheap. Now, this year, the wanted stuff can be insanely expensive.

Compared to my country where there are no retro games stores this establishment is like visiting a different planet. It has amazing ambience. I would sometimes go to their arcade floor to rest. There are candy, drinks, icecream and you can watch others playing classics. If time is limited just go to Super Potato. Hideo Kojima at 7:54

I think anyone coming from the US will find prices ridiculously high going to Supa Potato, but I found stuff that was either around the selling price on E-bay (and checked on Price Charting too) or cheaper, and to me that's acceptable. I say "to me" being a Chilean living in China, two countries where retro gaming is either super expensive (the former) or it flat out doesn't exist (the latter). Since I know a bit about prices, I can confirm consoles are very, very expensive, but games are not that bad. I found tons of games in the two Supa Potato I visited in Tokyo last week.

Akihabara in general is completely OVERpriced. Most of customers are naive tourists who don't know the market values at all, or think "it's a good deal because it's cheaper than US/Europe" ...You should have seen Akihabara during the pandemy, when all the clients were Japanese : all the stores had to respect the onlinle market values, there was no BS with the domestic clients. As soos as the country reopened and Akihabara was flowed with foreigners, the price more than triple within 1 month.
