Life in Japan - Pictures galore !! Arcades, Temples, Rainy days, etc

I just thought I would do I quick snap-shot of my life in Japan, now that I have discovered the wonder of image shack!

First up is my gaming set up I had going, the black thing next to the psone is a 3do and take note of the Tokimeki av selector!


This is where the uni where I was supposed to study, it is quite good apparently.


My very own train, a very rare moment!


What you have all been waiting for, me! in disney land with my lady of the moment. (good picture of her, not of me!)

Edit - took the final pic down, cos I figured it was kinda mean on her, if she didn't want her face all over the net.

 

Went to the Vodafone shop today to get my phone back after it had been serviced (New casing, screen and buttons which I needed because I knackered the others playing too many games) only to find these very cool phone covers. THey only had them for one Toshiba model phone but I thought they were great. Turn your mobile in to a red demon !!

just watched that hardgay film you posted yakumo.. didn't get a thing of the show but it was really funny

 

Phones over there in Japan are funky! They prolly have some that can play N64 games on them, LOL! The technology is very advanced over there, am I wrong?

 

Yeah, the phones here really are nice. We don't have phones that run any form of windows or stuff like that like some top end western phones but what we do have are phones that are fully mobile entertainment boxes. Mine plays games (PSX 3D Quality), has TV & FM Radio, MP4 auidio player, video AIF or MPEG4 player, video recoreder from the TV tuner (saves to SD cards since you only get about 5 minutes if using the phones memory), navigation with maps etc, 2.0 Mega Pixel camer (newer ones have 3.0 mega !!), video camera running at 320x240 resolution 20fps, text scanner and a shit load more crap like E-books, comics, inferred, motion sensor and on and on and on....... The latest phones have bloody surround sound speakers for christ sake !! Now they are just getting way too silly.

hahaha, Hard Gay now has a rival !! It's H.L. yep, that's right, Hard Lez !!! The Japanese are bloody nuts.

I may do a translation of that clip if enough people want it.

Yakumo

 

haha. that would be awesome

 

Lmao @ hardgay.....truly bizzare. Its like a Japanese version of Ant & Dec were they have wheeled some drug addict out of rehab and put him against a gay guy to win a years supply of crack

Thanks Yakumo for allowing us access to your FTP, and thanks for sharing all the wonderful videos Makes me want to move out of Liverpool and go to Japan like yourself

 

Am I wrong when I say in Japan there is an amusement park made of inspiration of the Danish amusement park/garden Tivoli ?

And some other "Danish" stuff ?

 

Please translate it!! And where can I find more info on this Hard Lez? Just bizarre...

 

WolverineDK - there is indeed a dutch theme park, indeed they may be two. For the English crew there is also a replica traditional English country village as well. It has proper thatched cottages and pubs to boot. Gotta remember if you don't want to deal with gaijin you can always visit the countrys in very "accurate" replicas.

 

I'll see if I can find anything on Hard Lez but for now just type or copy and pastthis katakana in to Google images to see a shit load of Hard gay shots !!!

ハードゲイ


What the hell is he up to in this shot ?

The second one has a torrent with more videos if you scroll down and look at the messages.

 

As you can see, Hard Gay is very popular in Japan. Makes you wonder doesn't it ?

Yakumo

 

Indeed, yet most Japanese people I met were very suprised that I knew gay people! They really didn't believe me, I would be very surprised if MR HG was actually gay - he is just putting on a routine-foo. Odd really when homosexuality is so common in Japanese manga, etc, that actual homosexuality is still a bit of an oddity to your average Japanese person-foo!

 

I remember going to Tivoli and Legoland back in the days when SNES was next-gen.. *dreaming away*

 

a little out of context, but would anyone living in japan have use for a couple of Nintendo club points slip thingy's?, i imported a couple of games, found them, relized they have no value to me, so i thought i'd ask here

Ryan

 

Importaku may want them. He get's his club nintendo stuff sent to my place. Send him a PM to see if he needs them.

Yakumo
