Bicqlo

The name, in case you hadn't already worked it out, is a contraction of two of Japan's major retail giants: home electronics behemoth Bic Camera and fast fashion pioneer Uniqlo. Opened to great fanfare in September 2012, Shinjuku's Bicqlo offers the opportunity to buy underwear and iPhones under the same roof – though anybody who's visited a big-box suburban superstore may struggle to see what all the fuss was about.
