Ooh, cool turning escalator!

The entrance to a big shopping arcade in Osaka. These are like the equivalent of our big malls...just out in the open :P Malls inside the train station are also really popular.

Mos Burger - Japan's very own fastfood burger joint. The burgers are alright, though they're heavy on the condiments and light on the meat :( I still prefer Burger King. One would wonder why they don't bring this chain over to America. I mean, come on - with a name like Mos Burger, how could you possibly go wrong?

Because no shopping arcade is complete without a Hitler (and Hitler's canine) clothing store.

Yes, that is indeed what love looks like. I have yet to try it though...next time I go to Tokyo!

Bustling shopping district in Osaka.

>.< *Squint*

Spidey-sense tingling! Spider-Man is seemingly popular in Japan...there are a lot of Spider-Man tchotchkes available, much more so than any other superhero.

A giant crab...'nuff said.

Yes, this is indeed an "Otaku's Sanctuary". Note that otaku means geek / nerd. Inside they sold a variety of little anime and videogame goodies. Needless to say, I spent a good amount of time in there.

This is inside the famous store Super Potato. They specialize in old videogames, both new and used.

Look! Old school NES Ice Climbers! They had a lot of old games playable on TVs, similar to how GameStops and EB Games will have the newest titles available to demo.

Lots old games...I made a few purchases here :P

...with one of those being an unopened copy of Super Smash Bros. for the Nintendo 64, Japanese edition. Only set me back ~$35...not too shabby for a mint copy of an old, extremely popular game.
