Hello, I won’t be traveling to Japan till late September and plan on staying for 5 weeks.
Where are you going to stay? (Tokyo is not an answer, it is just like saying New York City, L.A., London, or Hong Kong)
Shinjuku.
What games do you play?
AE and Blazblue.
If you are asking for budget approximations, please give detail about:
-The number of people you will be with
-Where you want to go
-How luxurious of a place you want to stay in
-What your spending needs are (ie. gifts for the family, everyday arcade, sightseeing, etc.)
Just myself entire stay in Japan.
I’m a huge food fanatic, so I wouldn’t mind traveling to experience new foods.
Luxurious? Nothing crazy, standard room I guess. I’m not really experienced when it comes to hotel rooms. But is it possible to netplay on Xbox or ps3 in a hotel room and if so would there be any lag?
As for spending, I would like to buy a hori fighting edge and hori vlx if possible. I cannot find the hori vlx anywhere in the US and I’m not one to buy a used one. And I’ll be playing every day in arcade.
Hey guys, in about a week, I’m moving to downtown Osaka (Around Yotsubashi and Shinsaibashi) I’ll hopefully be able to make it out to more events and stuff now that I’ll no longer be in the boonies! Hope to see people around!
I’m currently in yokosuka, japan. Currently been here for 3 years and will probably be staying for another 3 years. I don’t really go out to arcades as much as I used to because I lost all my fucking save cards (2 years worth of work) and I tend to never fucking win. >.>
Whenever I do go I usually hit up:
Round One in yokohama if I want to lose close matches.
Taito Station in Shibuya if I want to lose.
South Exit Taito Station in Shinjuku if I want to get blown the fuck out.
Anyways, my psn tags are in my sig. I mainly play ttt2 nowadays. I really want to learn kofxiii but the bad netcode sorta takes the fun out of it.
Just in case you are in Tokyo this weekend come check us out!

Where can I find some comp in KOF 13 in the Tokyo area? For reference, I’m staying near TCAT. I’m here on a business trip for the next week or so. Already been to some spots in Akihabara and no luck there, surprisingly. Also, any chance at all where I can possibly find any mvc2 action? I’m down for console also for either game.
Just arrived in Kyoto I’m doing a foreign exchange for a year. Anyone know the good arcades to go to? Play AE and P4A mostly though I wouldn’t mind doing some marvel if it’s here. Would like to meet some SRK members down here or in Osaka
there should be a facebook page for gaijin in japan, meet ups, tournaments, arcade free play sessions, the current best known areas to play X game or whatever.
I’ve been in Japan for a while now and am kinda reaching out to find some other gamers. Kinda suck at fighting games but I love playing them! Been playing Skullgirls and SSF4 AE a bit lately but love collecting fighting games of all types.
Updated the OP a bit. ScottPopular is hosting some kick ass events and I have been going to this ThrowBack Tokyo meetup that has cool people and we drink a good amount of the night away too!
