About This File

Sofmap, Akihabara, Tokyo

Sofmap is one of the giants in PC and PC equipment sales in Japan. They are owned by Bic Camera now, but were on the front lines of the growth of the computer industry in Japan. We actually have a Sofmap, but that was converted to a Bic a few years ago. This is across the street from that Sofmap/Bic building in Akihabara and is the flagship store for Sofmap.

Tenants change so quickly in Akihabara as the famous Mister Donut that was open for decades closed in 2024 in the first floor of the building. It was replaced with Taiwanese boba chain Gong Cha as of late 2024/early 2025. I put both in the first floor since this is a game, and your sims deserve both. There's also a Y! Mobile storefront, like in real life, as well as many advertisements for electronics plastered all over the building. MSI is a big Sofmap partner, and they sell a lot of the computers that they made with Mercedes-AMG in these stores. In the back there is a Lifork remote work office. 

The building is eight floors. Floors 1-7 specialize in electronics and PC equipment, with Apple on the third floor. In the seventh floor there is also a maid cafe, and the eighth floor is an esports event space that is reservation-only, usually for pro gaming leagues and streaming.

I want to thank Emperor Li of Cities Skylines fame for the original 3D blueprint that I based it off of. I built this from the ground up and used their pictures as inspiration.

Contains a 2x2 CS$$9 corner building and a 2x2 Plop.

Dependencies:
None! Enjoy.

@reeskey it's in the landmarks, as well as a CS$$9 grow.

Use lotplop if you want to plop the CS$$ lot

whats lotplop?

 

It's from the extra cheats plugin, originally used by Maxis developers. 
 

Simply download the DLL and ctrl+x then type in "lotplop" or "buildingplop" and place any growable you want into your city. Residential plops actually do work, but you need to place it on an already existing residential area, but that doesn't apply to this one.
