You could try an American restaurant chain called Hard Rock Cafe for
both Buffalo Wings and Pizza.  TGI Fridays also has both but I dunno
if there's one in Osaka.  Maybe there's some Americana style
restaurant at Universal Studio that could satisfy your craving.  IIRC,
Wendy's serves buffalo wings.  If you go to Nagoya, you could try
Outback Steakhouse (no pizza or buffalo wings but great NY steaks). 
Kobeya Kitchen has New York style pizza but I'm kind of partial to the
pizza served at Pronto.  I dunno what's at Denny's but you could try
there.  The spicy twister at Kentucky Fried Chicken could be a
reasonable substitute for buffalo wings.  If you really are desperate
then you could try the restaurants at any Westin or Hyatt hotel.
