The Official Japan Thread 2.0 "Nani?"

wow, 30 euro per extra kg luggage. its actually cheaper to just buy a new stick and leave it there than take a TE there and back.

Yeah the arcade is right around the corner from the mall, I’m pretty sure they don’t have ST there but one of the bars outside base has a famcon with ST turbo lol. Where are you moving to up here, the college in Towada or Hach? I’ma try and find some more arcades up here but so far all I’ve found were some broken Basara X machines at the malls.

Loc Test was kinda cool, a lot of scrubs tho. But waiting in a long line to play a game that I’ve been playing at home for a few months already is kinda like “yeah…”

I did play once when the line was short, tho.

haha yeah, i only played twice at akiba the other day, no point in waiting in line again and again to play a game too similar(if not the same) to the ones ive been playing at home. (plus the buttons were kinda shitty)

Thought I’d introduce myself here, seein’ as I’m in Tokyo and whatnot.

I’m still very much a sf4 beginner, and totally new to “the scene”, but I’ve been in Japan 7 years and I speak/ read Japanese. Maybe I can be of some use.

Edit: OK, that’s enough reading this thread. I get the gist.

Edit2: Oops. I guess asking about sticks was sort of naive/ a faux pas in the GenPop here. I’ll figure out some more stuff on that front on my own.

Just popping in this thread to say I’m going to be in Tokyo for pretty much all of September. Probably just going to be playing 3s and consuming dangerous amounts of alcohol (NEED MORE CLEAR ASAHIIIII!!!)

Dude, Hyouketsu Strong 8% all the way man! Asahi Strong OFF/Kirin Strong 7 is 7%

dont play wid the little stuff man, or do like me and Shekeib and Sho do, on the corner, wid a bottle of Black Nikka

Yadadada

Oh yeah, what’s the deal with alcohol over there, 20 right? How easy is it to get away with buying it without ID?

I dont recall seeing anyone carded at a store.

To get into a club though…

I arrived in tokyo today and have 2 weeks for nonstop drinking and playing before I have to start working during the week. A few people from tokyo want to meet up tomorrow, thursday or friday?

yeah its more toward chiba, BUT usually the “extra curricular” activities happen at Tokyo so its up to you really.

Hey Ill be traveling to Fukuoka and Nagasaki with my girlfriend for a few days starting Thursday leaving Tuesday next week. Can anyone recommend any good places to go? Sightseeing, bars, restaurants, game centers, just about anything cool? Were gonna hit up Canal City and Dazaifu temple in Fukuoka and also see dolphins in Nagasaki but were looking for more places to go. Any recommendations would be awsome

O.K. I don’t know if BULL410 posted it but the next FRB/TPC will be on the 28th! More info to come!

Yeah, heard “she” is coming too. heh.

I’m still stuck in Malaysia for now, no practice for me. :frowning:

Anyway, i thought you’re gonna do KOF style with invitation card and shit :rofl:

Yeah, we are the KOF invites are still being made but if you are on SRK its automatic!

SHE? SHE WHO? Another one of BULLS’ surprises?

Enjoy your vacation homie!

She would probably dig shopping around Tenjin in the Fuk. I haven’t been yet, but my coworkers love it. Maybe I’ll hit it during Obon. Let me know if you find a hot spot.

anyone going to an arcade tonight? Think I’ll go to shibuya kaikan or shibuya sports land

shibuya sports land is no more. it should have been closed already (not 100% sure, but around 98% sure)

Ugh, 28th. Don’t think I can go.

I got two weeks off for O-bon or whatever. Anything going down in Nagoya or Osaka?
