This sticker was on the disc of my copy of Thunder Storm FX. Is it one of those stickers that Japanese importers put on to proof that it's a real copy and not a bootleg?

I try to make the photo as clear as possible.

I'd be happy to translate it for you if I could see the image...

It's a sticker from Wankpaku Kozou, which is a Japanese game store. Probably where your importer bought the game from.

I can't read the kanji above the OK (too blurry), but the top script reads "Wanpaku Kozou" and above the OK it reads "Check (unreadable)" -- so it's a sticker to show Wanpaku Kozou checked the game out to show it works. Pretty common to see these stickers on tape and magnetic media games as well as used systems -- could be on CD and cart games as well, but I am not sure as it has been a few months since I've shopped there.

The kanji behind "check" is sumi- means that it is over, or finished. So, the check was finished ok. BTW Smork, I am drinking Natchan as I type this, oddly enough.
