Crazy Arcade in JAPAN!!! - KOWLOON WALLED CITY (Kawasaki Warehouse)

Фильм және анимация

WARNING - DON'T book your travel through Expedia - they are super sketchy! So many people have reported being double or triple-charged by Expedia.com - and Expedia has refused to refund duplicate charges caused by glitches on their site and app. I don't know if travelocity and hotels.com are as sketchy, but they are owned by the same company. I will be trying competitor Priceline in the future.
The Kawasaki Warehouse is a huge arcade in Kawasaki Japan (about 30-40 minutes from Tokyo by train). The coolest part of the arcade is a section modeled after Kowloon Walled City, a crowded urban nest in Hong Kong that was demolished in the 1990's. Kowloon inspired the settings of many fictional video games, animes, and movies.
The Kowloon section of the arcade houses classic game cabinets such as Darius, Outrun, Street Fighter, and Gauntlet. ウェアハウス 川崎店 • ウェアハウスカワサキテン

The signage, the decor are unmistakably from my city. I will go and take a look a this next time I visit Tokyo!!

    I planned a trip to the mysterious walled city when I was a teen but was too frightened and only got as far as the last train station near it. One of my many regrets in life not visiting it when it was still there. In the middle was a Christian missionary who used really graphic imagery to scare people off drugs and she would visit the local schools and put the literal fear of God into people. This arcade looks amazing but sadly like sop many amazing places in Japan, has since closed sadly.
