Retrotailer - Mandrake Galaxy, Nakano

Few places in Tokyo will bring retro gamers to their knees quite like this place.

Jam packed with everything you'd want to see in a 90's gaming time capsule, including a bunch of Game and Watch handheld devices, toys, posters and the like.

A phenomenal bunch of games from every major console earmarked with Mandrakes condition label means gives customers a price variance too. You'll be paying through the nose for mint condition games (which is fair), but for gamers just wanting to find that beat up copy, there's crates full of non-boxed goods to look through.

Standouts include -

Ristar - 18,000¥
TMNT - 15,000¥
BattleToads - 18,000¥
(G&W) Hungry Weiner (lol) - 25,000¥
(G&W) Batman - 3,800¥

ROBOT ROBOT - Nakano Broadway

Phenomenal bunch of 80's and 90's throwback merch.

Outside of Akiba, Nakano Boroadway is definitely the place to be if you're lookin for action figures, retro toys and gamin junk from yesteryear. ROBOTROBOT has 2 stores, this time we'll be looking at their western selection on the 3rd Floor.

All kinds of classic goods, most of which can't be found in standard figurine dealers, from Ghostbusters to Reboot to Earthworm Jim. Specializing in foreign goods sets ROBOTROBOT apart from almost all other suppliers in Tokyo, although often goods are neglected and hunked together, prices reflect quality.

Mindblowing mount of Crash Bandicoot, Sonic, Pacman and Parappa the Rapper related goods.

Retailer "Village Vanguard" - Shibuya

Some of the dope retro gaming stuff available at VV. 

Shibuya being one of the biggest Vanguard joints in Japan makes them a must if you're looking for instant access to gaming apparel and merch. Although a chain, the Shibuya shop especially seems to get a lot more variety than other places - more often than not, exclusives too!

Enjoy.

Retailer "TSUTAYA" - Shinjuku, Tokyo

One hell of a huge ass gaming music collection!

Although claiming the largest porn selection in Tokyo, their gaming section ain't nothing to be scoffed at. You name it, everything from Street Fighter to Final Fantasy, obscure remixes to the Pokemon movie, this place is gonna have something to make commutes just a little more bearable.

TSUTAYA's prices are pretty ruthless but a lot of these tracks are completely off the radar.. Definitely worth a visit.
