Super Potato is a retail store specializing in video game, anime, and manga merchandise, with its main location in the Akihabara district of Tokyo. There are 10 stores in total, including two in Tokyo (Akihabara and Higashiikebukuro) and one in Nipponbashi, Osaka.
The flagship three-floor store in Akihabara is known for its rare collection of Japanese games from older consoles. The first floor features games for the Nintendo Famicom and Japanese home PC, while the second floor houses games for more modern consoles like the Nintendo 64, PlayStation, and Sega Saturn. In 2007, a small video arcade was added to the third floor. The store's Famicom collection is particularly popular among games journalists.
