What it is

Den Den Town is Osaka's Akihabara, and Yellow Submarine's Namba main store sits at its northern, Namba-side gateway. The Hobby Base / Yellow Submarine brand specializes in tabletop and trading-card hobbies, and this shop stocks trading card games (a registered Pokémon-card store), arcade cards, new and used figures, plastic models, modeling tools and materials, candy toys and lottery items.

A dedicated duel room makes it a play space as well as a shop, and a buyback counter handles used hobby goods. For a TCG player or hobbyist in Osaka, it's a quick stop a couple of minutes from Nankai Namba Station, at the top of the Den Den Town hobby strip.
