Following the Ikke interview (right here), I would say this place is located in the 'Kawasaki' city, not too far from Tokyo.

I plan to go to Japan in few month, I also need the information  ;)

I'll drop a message to Ikke for the address, buy maybe some Japanese friends here can tell us?  ;)

 :o You lucky bird!  I want to go to Japan someday, visit all those great arcade halls which you still find in Tokyo and Kyoto, filled with rows and rows of candy cabs.

Business or pleasure?
