There is a theme store called 8bit cafe in Shinjuku, which literally means an 8-person game-themed cafe. According to the in-store photos shared by customers, the author is indeed attracted to this store with strong childish memories of the 1980s and 1990s. Here you can not only see all kinds of old animation books and hand-made models, but also play Nintendo red and white machines and GB handsets while eating.

There is a theme store called "8bit cafe" in Shinjuku, Japan, which literally means an 8-person game-themed cafe. According to the in-store photos shared by customers, the author is indeed attracted to this store with strong naive memories of the 1990s. Here you can not only see all kinds of old animation books and hand-made models, but also play Nintendo red and white machines, GB handheld machines and Sega hosts while eating. I think people who often come here must have a rather impressive "game childhood".

Rare version of cassette, Nintendo GBA

Do you still remember?

Of course, it's good to play some small handheld phones during the meal.

There are more and more limited edition hands.

If you wait too long for dinner, you can fight against your buddies.

It's also an antique.

GB handset shape??

A board game?
