Arcade game centers are becoming increasingly vintage. But, there are a still a handful of great game centers around Tokyo! The Takadanobaba Game Center in Shinjuku is one of our favorites! Every machine we tried was working flawlessly, and each machine is cleaned after each use.
Here, you will find all the retro games you desire - fighting, racing, and simulation games from the 80s and 90s are all here. In addition, the manager of this center has a deep knowledge of games so he has incorporated many unique and interesting games that you may have never heard of. A must-visit for those who are into retro games and looking for a fun time to spend a few hours!
