Visited Grasshopper, AMA

Okay, nothing to tell, lol, but damn was it exciting to go up there, even though my friend was TERRIFIED security would kick us out.

I told him it was a public building and we were fine, but no one answered the buzzer.

Still was really cool to see, I imagine they're more welcoming to tourists when Suda's actually there(I think GDC was happening, great timing).

And I tried calling, a Japanese receptionist answered, awkward.

The building was pretty easy to find, it's publicly listed on Google and everything, right off the Chuo Sobu line.

That's really cool. Game dev buildings are usually inviting in my experience.

Damn. I was going to ask if you met Suda, but I guess you answered that.

No, lol, no one was in the building, probably because I was there during GDC. Probably for the best, since they say you should make an appointment.
