I wish I'd known about Akihabara when I was in
Japan a few years back.

I spent 2.5 years in japan around middle school time back in the 80s.
Akihabara was about a monthly trip for me. Didn't buy much, just
looked around. It's an amazing place, although I haven't seen it in
20 years. I saved my yen and bought an original Famicom and computer
keyboard upgrade, with a PAL tv. Had around 10 cartridges including
the original excitebike. Alas, it all left in a garage sale when I
was a poor college student. :-/
