You can still go out there and do things like join a running club. People are still going to arcades in Japan.

Comments like these are kind of ironic.

Nowadays' Japanese arcades are not like the ones GP is describing, most players don't interact with each other directly anymore.

Notable exceptions are places like Mikado centers that organize tournaments and keep the old flame alive.

It's a commentary on modern Western culture, not a request for hobby suggestions.
