The Gaming Journal

The Gaming Journal is a video game podcast primarily focused on, though not entirely limited to, Japanese role playing games and game collecting. Harkening back to the early days of regular, everyday YouTube game enthusiasts, episodes range from sharing about recent pick-ups and games in the backlog to early impressions and full length discussions!
