Whut?!? The Japan’s UFO Catcher Academy

It’s time to head to a Japanese Game Center dedicated to UFO CATCHERS also known as the CRANE GAME!

Glass boxes with pinchers you can control to win all sorts of treasure – if you have the skills and experience to do it. In this episode of ONLY in JAPAN, John Daub travels to Saitama with Bob Werley from Pirates of Tokyo Bay and Alan Welch, producer of MY LIFE JAPAN to earn a diploma in CRANE GAME TECHNIQUES 101 from the Official Japan Crane Game Association. It’s the intro course at Game Center Everyday which also is the Guinness World Record holder for having the most crane games in one location. That’s right! This place is the center of Japan (and the world’s) crane game insanity! Not only can you win a lot of stuff, you can take their course.
