Video games

Teenagers love playing games on their phones or in arcades. There are 9,000 arcades in Japan with more than 450,000 game machines. Some teens spend days in there playing games and they can get quite good. Others stand and watch best players play games like Drum Master. You can watch them on Youtube.

 A really good action and thriller movie
