Where do Japanese arcade enthusiasts post?
With the amount of pcbs, cabinets and parts sold on YAJ I am wondering where Japanese users post in their language about arcade cabinets and games? Is there some sort of site or yahoo group that's the main one for them? A Japanese version of arcade otaku?
I'm learning to read Japanese so might as well find an interesting topic.

a lot of avid retro game and cab collectors are active on Twitter since they can use nicknames or aliases there.
I am connected to quite a lot of them.

Japanese collectors generally don't post their WTB or FS lists - it is seen as bad manners.zak wrote:Any chance you could source an Akai Katana Limited Edition Home kit?Yamazaki wrote:a lot of avid retro game and cab collectors are active on Twitter since they can use nicknames or aliases there.
