Culture/Gaming Historica | Arcade Walk Japan Series [Part Seven] | Aotori Game Centre closes after 40 years
Added 2025-01-31 07:16:02 +0000 UTCAuto Parlor Yasugi (Aotori) in Yasugi, Shimane nearby Hiroshima has now closed. It was open since 1985 and closed on January 19th 2025!
I think it use to be car auto repair shop that change into a game arcade!
Many people do not know about the many smaller town arcade closing in Japan. So sad 😞
So today’s number seven Arcade Walk is in Aotori Game Center to see how it looked in recent times.. ♥️

There may be some big one still but I think many small have close now

2025-02-03 02:57:19 +0000 UTCSo sad to see, arcades were so good back in the day. I'm one of the lucky ones that got to visit the Sega World in England. When I go to Japan at Easter I still hope I can visit some arcades like this.

2025-02-01 17:46:27 +0000 UTCYes get so more expensive everywhere 😢

2025-02-01 17:46:01 +0000 UTCIf I was rich I would open the SuperSisi Super Arcade tomorrow!! 😄

2025-02-01 17:45:57 +0000 UTCAfter seeing so many of these arcades close down, its sad to think that one day there maybe no arcdes left. Even many of the iconic Sega arcades (rebranded to GiGO) were closed down. I wish some of the billionaires in this world would support such cultural causes instead of accumilating money non stop that they'll never use.

Not Sure
2025-01-31 18:17:39 +0000 UTCEverything is priced out of reach. I'm surprised laundromats don't close due to rent & price of electricity😪boo who

2025-01-31 17:19:11 +0000 UTCThe golden age of arcades sadly passed away😭

2025-01-31 11:09:49 +0000 UTCGigo is Sega? Yes there many small one that do not survive
SuperSisi
2025-01-31 10:28:16 +0000 UTCIt seem they can not all survive
SuperSisi
2025-01-31 10:27:44 +0000 UTCYes many have go this way already
SuperSisi
2025-01-31 10:27:34 +0000 UTCAlways makes sad to see the smaller arcades close 😞

2025-01-31 08:50:09 +0000 UTCShame to see so many arcades gone. What a golden age of gaming it was.
AndyKurosaki
2025-01-31 07:40:59 +0000 UTCSuch a shame to see them close. It’s not quite a small game centre but I visited a gigo one during my trip I wished it was still a sega one but I can’t imagine it had changed too much after the change over.
