Over on gamesradar is a neat article about video game bars in Japan. Chewy noticed that one of them, called the 8-Bit Cafe, uses the Japanese Mr. Saturn font:
The part that says “5かいは” (“5th Floor”) uses the Japanese Mr. Saturn font, probably using one of the fan-made computer fonts out there. It’s not everyday you see Mr. Saturn fonts out in the real world, so that’s a pretty neat find, and definitely only something a heavy-duty fan would spot!
The bar itself looks really cool, check out page 2 of the article above. They got classic systems set up for patrons to play while drinking and having a good time. Definitely sounds like a place I’d love to visit 😀

Wasn’t there a game bar somewhere in the US at one time? I remember reading about someone trying something just like this.

- Karmageddon: @Esper Heh, my bad. But remember though. We had to lower the quality of the recording to make it work on hardware.
- Esper: Dammit I’d prefer the new one if the “set” didn’t such blow into the mic. Love the official Lucas voice though!
- Earthbounder: Wonder if their is a way to use the alt english translation with this voice patch
- game4brains: @Franklin Badger I would’ve guessed chocolate labradoodle.
- Matt: Lucas has an english voice actor in Smash Bros.? Why, when they still use the original JP voice clips for Ness?
Man it would be really cool to go to one of those game bars. xD
