A few days ago, I went with Rich to Nakano since he was going to have a lesson with one of his students there. At Nakano, they have an arcade, but it's not the American version of an Arcade. In Japan an Arcade is simply an outside mall. The place had a lot of cool shops selling crazy things. But some shops sold vintage stuff like muscle man, the original star wars figures and old WWF wrestling action figures. I also got suckered into playing this game that all you had to do was stop a flashing light on the right spot and you could win a PSP, Nintendo DS or Playstation 3. It was only a dollar to play...That's what I kept telling myself. It was my mantra. I'm not gonna tell you how much money I spent on it. Let's just say it was so bad that an older Japanese woman came by and told me to stop playing because it was a scam. Japanese people are very nice like that. At one of these shops they apparently had a girl with a bunny hat on that worked there. Why did she have a bunny hat on? Dunno, and my Japanese is horrible so I didn't ask. It's kind of hard to believe...so I took a video of her doing her thing which apparently is nothing. I'm terrible at taking videos (Wes where are you when I need you!?) but you get to see her.

LOL I loved this post and these videos. HAHA I really wish I was there, man... but it looks like you're managing quite well without my stereotypically-inclined insensitivity.
ReplyDeleteOh... and my father gave all my muscle men to my little cousin when he came from Cuba. So I need you to get me like 300 of them, ok? Also look for Battle Beasts. Don't bother coming home without them. You won't be welcome. I want my toys (and bananas).
