"Amusement Land Kyonta Gon", Okubo

Real old school arcade in the heart of Korean Town, Gon has been rolling for 15 years plus. 50¥ games, old and new, one of the few arcades selling potato chips (shocking).

Thought Okubo had dropped off as an arcade town last year but realizing there are actually 3 joints in the area.. Dope.

Located just a 10minute walk from Shinjuku, Okubo is perfect for some casual games, drinks and laughs.


Arcade "GAO", Okubo




Awesome little arcade tucked away in the heart of Okubo. 

Until early last year the Korean district had one of the best gaming scenes in Japan, with even a 5 floor indie arcade packed with every fighting game imaginable. 2012-2013 saw a bunch of indie places feel the pinch. 

So glad to see this one still rocking it.
