Holos play Morrowind when?

Hi /jp/, my brother is going to 日本 and will be staying in Shinjuku. He plans on going to Akiba and bring me some weeb goods.

While pre-ordering japanese goods is pretty easy, getting infos on physical stores in Japan and their goods is pretty much impossible without a good knowledge of moonrunes. I can read hiragana and katakana, but I just started kanji so my knowledge of japanese is pretty much 0 and Im utterly lost.

Im pretty sure some of you guys went to Akiba, how did you go about getting your hands on the goods you wanted ? What are some things to know (including basic shit, like the word コミク for instance) ?
