Recently the FlutterScape community has been sharing so many great product discoveries we felt it only fitting to highlight each user’s activities on a newly redesigned profile page!
The new profile page is bigger an better in every way. Now both the profile picture and the product…
Artist Daniel MacGregor drops some Turtle Power in his new fan art illustration. Created for the current art challenge going on over at #JoGees. Pizza!
I spent 1000 yen, only to realize that the crane is so fragile that it will absolutely always fail in lifting big item. There’s probably one of many cranes set correctly to lift an item. Or maybe it’s just randomly triggered in every machine.
Anyway, I’m still curious tho :)).
An iconic part of Japanese arcades is the UFO Catcher, or the crane game as it is known in the West. Unlike Western counterparts, UFO Catchers in Japan offer up more than just plush animals.
In the multi-story SEGA arcade, on the corner across from Akihabara station, UFO Catchers take up the entirety of the first four floors. Each floor is themed slightly differently but all games are tailored to anime fans.
In the first of a two part series of Window Shopping, we explore the second and third floor of the SEGA building. The UFO Catchers on these floor contain figures from some of Japan’s most popular anime such as One Piece, K-On, Evangelion, and Dragonball.
For fans, becoming skilled at the UFO Catcher is necessary to collecting some of these exclusive figures. For others, UFO Catchers can be a cheap way to get a desired prize, often for as little as 100 yen!
Next week FlutterScape explores the first and fourth floors of the SEGA arcade to show off some other interesting products available as UFO Catcher prizes.
