Natsuge Museum is less than 5 minutes from Takadanobaba Station on foot. Just pop out of the Waseda Exit and turn left. [Google Maps – Natsuge Museum] 高田馬場駅 ナツゲーミュージアムショップ
The location is in a basement, so look sharp or you may miss the entrance. In the following image, the entrance is down the stairs behind the vending machine next to the Kebab shop. I visited in July 2025. I mention this, because I’m really not sure how much longer this place will continue to be in this location.
Once you get in you’ll think, “Wow! That belongs in a museum!” At least museum is in the name of the space. I do not know if they rotate the games here, but considering that there are such a limited number of games to check out, I hope so! Judging by the other photos on Google Maps, it looks like they do indeed change the games out.
The official website of Natsuge is here but you won’t get much out of it without reading the Japanese, or translating it. All of the games that I saw in the shop were priced at 100 yen. How in the world does this place stay in business. Please stay in business. Pinball machines, Punch Out!!, 100 yen!? Get outta here! This is definitely fun!
