Neo Geo MVS hunting in Kyoto?

Post by ninjainspandex »

So my friend is heading to Tokyo for a couple weeks and wants to help me score some nice deals on some MVS carts. Any advice from anyone who knows alot about Tokyo on where to go and what to look out for? His Japanese is pretty good.

I see AES carts by the busload in used game shops in Tokyo. MVS are few and far between. His best bet is MAK JAPAN. I have been there several times and they sell MVS carts, PCBs, as well as arcade cab parts.

It's at the north end of Akihabara between Akibahabara and Okachimachi stations. It's on the sixth floor of a small building so it may be bit hard to find.

Here is the address:
東京都千代田区外神田4-7-2 小林ビル6F

Oh, never mind.

I doubt there would be, but don't take my word for it. Osaka (fairly close to Kyoto) would probably have a couple in Den Den Town. I never really go to that part of Japan so I am not too knowledgeable.
