When one thinks of Akihabara, of course anime and manga culture comes to mind, but don’t forget gaming! This time we visited a popular arcade in Akihabara called Hey, which has many retro game machines. Hey occupies the 1st to 4th floors of a multiple story building, and stands out with its orange colored entrance.

You get three chances per play, and the exhilaration we felt after throwing a punch is indescribable…! Putting all your daily frustration into your fist really takes away the stress.
