Vix in Japan's video: This amazing Japanese Game Boy book is the nuts Game Boy at 35 in Japan

Subscribe to Saki Endo's Rubbish Heap: @SakiEndosRubbishHeap A while back I said I wanted to lean into cool shit I wanted to talk about well that's what I'm doing here, talking about why the Game Boy has such a special place in my heart and how it relates to my life here in Japan in my own very niche and inimitable way! When I was 7 years old in 1990, I have no recollection of ever recognizing a video game before that point, but that may be my memory playing tricks, but I can sure for sure the Game Boy was the first time I wanted to play video games and the first time I wanted such a device to do so on. I talk about how the Game Boy first came into my life, how I made my own Game Boy when I was a kid, and more importantly how the Game Boy is so relevant to my life here in Japan. But the most interesting bit is this awesome book that I recently picked up for the GameBoy here in Japan, a new edition of the Game Boy Perfect Catalog that has to be one of the most exhaustive guides to everything Game Boy and Game Boy Color. I even play some Mahjong in this video, not many YouTube Game Boy videos venture into that territory.
