About

Opened on 20 March 2026, this is one of the largest crane-game centres in Shinjuku: 147 machines with 383 booths across several floors, mini cranes on the ground floor, 'easy' machines for beginners and English-language guides on how to play. It sits right at the neon gateway to Kabukicho, so it's an easy late-night stop after dinner in Omoide Yokocho or a show at Tokyu Kabukicho Tower. Additional upper floors were scheduled to open from summer 2026.
