5.00A short but sweet tour highlighting some of the hidden gems of Akihabara, helping newcomers to the area get an idea of what to expect and where to go. As a lover of retro gaming had a great time browsing old games, reminiscing my youth with the guide and playing new and old arcade games. I even managed to pick up a part I needed for one of my old consoles!
