TOKYO — What secret gaming treasures await inside the stores of Akihabara?
During Wired.com’s recent trip to the Tokyo Game Show, I brought along a video camera and documented my wanderings through the city’s game stores.
You’ve already heard about my cheap, bargain-bin finds. Now watch this video of stores like Super Potato and Sofmap, with some Dragon Quest IX playing thrown in.
It’s like you’re there! And like you’re slightly drunk, considering that it’s all filmed using a handheld HD cam.
