Hey

Hey is a stronger starting point for a video-game-focused visit than an undifferentiated list of arcade pins. Taito’s own description gives it a recognisable emphasis, while still requiring a game-by-game check.

What the operator highlights

Taito lists Hey at 1-10-5 Sotokanda, occupying the first through fourth floors. Its introduction advertises more than 300 video games alongside other genres, and links separate game-list updates. Treat that as the operator’s published description on review, not a count performed by GIZUMO.

Do not confuse Hey with Hey2

Taito announced the neighbouring Hey2 for 8 August 2026 as a crane-game-centred second store. That distinction matters if an article, map pin or social post simply says “Hey”. The original venue and the newer neighbouring store do not imply the same selection of machines.

Turn a shortlist into a visit

For a particular shooter, fighter or driving game, follow the operator’s relevant game-list notice and check the exact title and version. A genre-level claim is not enough to establish the cabinet you want. Confirm photography and recording arrangements with the store before filming; the existence of official streams does not establish permission for visitors to record.
