Whenever I've been in kabukicho at night a million touts immediately swarm upon me. I probably look like an easy mark

I've gone with pocket wifi from eConnect before but this time I'll probably just get a sim at the airport. It feels like less of a hassle than having another thing that needs to be carrier around and charged every night.

For some reason the teamlabs websiote refuses to let me buy tickets for borderless. I was planning on going there this Sunday (I'm flying to Japan tomorrow, but it's closed Mon-Wed next week and I'm leaving Tokyo on Thursday). Since it's not exactly the busiest time of year, is it likely there will still be same-day tickets available?

geese posted:That's odd that the Teamlab tickets aren't working... I tried myself and it seems to be ok: https://ticket.teamlab.art/#/order. It claimed that the service was busy or something and wouldn't accept either of my cards, two days in a row 🤔 I was thinking it might be because my surname has Swedish letters (åäö) and it wouldn't let me input that in the cardholder field so the name didn't match

I actually got two error popups, one about the service being busy and one that about there being a problem with the card Anyway they hade tickets and there was an insane amount of people so I'd hate to see how it is when theyre sold out

I'm in Kyoto after 5 days in Tokyo and suddenly my will to walk all day just drained away. Good thing it's so easy to get around by bike (too bad I didn't pick a hotel with complementary bike)

Thanatosian posted:EDIT: Jesus. Just re-booked both hotel rooms (Tokyo and Kyoto) through Hotels.com (where I'd initially booked them); same hotels, same rooms; shaved ~35% off the total price. Cool I'm glad I read this, I could rebook my last hotel before going home, almost 50% cheaper. Wish I had checked this with my other places too.

I got back from Japan today after two weeks. I'm also now banished from work for two weeks.

I remember one great arcade for older fighting games in akiba when I was there a few years ago but I couldn't find it this time (but I didn't look that hard either). I don't think it was a Sega or Namco arcade but I'm probably just misremembering.

Archer666 posted:One of the main Sega (i think) arcades at the main akiba street has a floor dedicated to VF5 along with some Tekken and Fate Unlimited Codes. Maybe you're thinking of that? Maybe. It had a bunch of SF2/SF3 cabs and other older fighting games but I remember losing a lot at those two. There's probably a few arcades like that in akiba though.

Martytoof posted:There's way too many variables IMO. My gut feeling is that, yes, the travel restrictions will be lifted, but even if it is open for tourism the chance of a second wave of COVID has me re-evaluating my own plans for a December trip. I'm super happy I managed to visist Japan just right before everything got really bad (two weeks in february).

Blacows was good from what I can recall and I found a little place tucked away in an alley in Kyoto which was pretty good too. But that's the extent of my Japan burger experience.
