I didn’t know there’s a big mall in AmeMura (American Village)
May 6, 2026
I am living in Osaka for long time but I really didn’t know a Big mall exist in AmeMura , I just thought AmeMura is for Osaka Young kids but it was not now
It’s called Big Step. It’s cool to see at night because the rainbow staircase lights up.
You even have a live house on the higher floor (Big Cat)
ugh i miss amemura!
is there anyone living in osaka that would be willing to do a secondhand haul exchange? i am in germany 🇩🇪
I mean… how can you live near Amemura and miss this?
There was a Thai restaurant there. It was really good
Big step!! (Guess why they call it that lmao)
I don’t know if that qualifies as either “big” or a “mall,” but Big Step has the best pinball arcade in Japan IMO. Silver Ball Planet.
There’s a great record store in there
Selection is in the photo and is one of the few places that carries NPB gear outside of the team shops. Popular in /r/NPB. And the SNK store is hella cool.
They have an arcade with the crazy taxi cabinet in there
I spent a lot of time on a rainy day like a week and a half ago …. should’ve gone to the pinball museum!
If you went there about five years ago you could have gotten great pastrami sandwiches in the basement… The sandwich place has since gone to shit and sells instagammable cheese abominations only now

It’s been there since at least 2009 when I lived there. I used to stop there to go to the toilet
It’s a funny place though … big but not much there.
That is where Silver Ball Planet is!! A must stop for any pinball enthusiast!

It was there at least in the mid 90s
