Hi All, I'm going to Japan for the first time ever, visiting Kyoto Osaka and Tokyo for 10 days, in a couple of weeks.. Wondering if anyone has any suggestions for places to go and visit in Japan for general electronics interest? I'm also in the market to buy a new laptop, but so far searches of the intertubes suggest its not really any cheaper than at home. Any suggestions? |

There's a Tokyo/Akihabara thread here: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/the-akihabara-japan-electronics-store-master-list/msg4729406/#msg4729406 Other than that, I'm also on the look out for other Japan suggestions! |

The exciting days of the 70's and 80's in Akihabara and Nihonbashi are over. When I was there in the 80's and 90's they were awesome places. I revisited Akihabara about four years ago. I only found one ham radio shop, no electronics components shops, but plenty of manga shops and other rubbish that might be of no interest to those into electronics. A big disappointment. Maybe some in that list are worth finding... good luck. |
