Official Hard Off ambassador Alex Kraus returns to chat about Book Off, the biggest chain of used bookstores in Japan. A hotbed for retro games, we chat about the history of the store, amazing finds, and how you can get retro games for cheaper. In the game section I chat about Konami’s arcade run and gun Mystic Warriors and the physics platformer Giga Wrecker Alt from Game Freak!
