Well at least it appears terrestrial.

That brings back 20 year old memories of Kumamoto for me and getting (politely) kicked out of the Best Denki electronics store while mildly drunk on a hot Saturday evening.

Tower Slider seems to be its name as amusement facility.
Scheduled to be open in the end of April.
