Finally took a couple of pics. Here's the aformentioned $30 Twin Famicom:
And on Tuesday night i swung by a local game store. They had a special on some PS2 gear, including:
Works, and best part of it is it was only **$100**. I wasn't about to point out to them that that was cheaper than they were selling a PS2 Slim.
Curse you Japanese! You get these cool items for regular price and us Americans have to pay extremely high prices for this stuff! Curse yoooooouuuu!
*Note to self: Stop watching GI Joe before making posts*
Thunder Spirits - Super Famicom 105yen
Banjo-Kazooie - N64 105yen
The New Zealand Story - PC Engine 105yen
Son Son II - PC Engine 105yen
Fantasy Zone - PC Engine 63yen
Daisenpu (Twin Hawk) - PC Engine 63yen
Thank you to the person who sold their PCE games to Hard-Off this morning!!! There's still a copy of Alien Crush there for 105yen and a bunch of sports games. Since I already have Alien Crush and aren't in need of 27 copies of F1 Circus, they're still there for the taking.
I just noticed the HuCard version of PC Genjin 3 (Bonk's Adventure 3) is going for just under $100. Is that game really worth that much???

Seems a little high but not by much. For some reason that game always goes for $$$$$. I wish someone could tell me why the Japanese version of Fatal Frame 2 (XBOX) goes for around $200 if not more...Originally Posted by Breetai
I've got a little Hard Off raid planned for tomorrow myself (visiting one I haven't and two I regularly visit) - wish me luck!
I got it for free from a receptionist at my work that was getting rid of a bunch of her son's old stuff, along with some other HuCards, some Famicom and also some SF games. Bonk 3 was by far the best surprise, but I did end up with a few boxed Famicom and SF games as well. About 30 games or so.
Good luck on your Hard-Off run tomorrow!
I found a Bandai Playdia today for 1000yen. I didn't know much about it, so I did some research after I got home today. It looks like absolute garbage. I like collecting stuff, but I really have no desire for a Playdia (yet, I happily picked up an SG-1000 recently...).

also importaku hos ith doreamon ds game?
Umihara Kawase, complete, $80.
Here is mine.
Last Monday was a holiday and I decided to drive up north a bit. I was poking through the Fukushima/Ibaraki coastal are and came across one of the "We buy and sell everything stores" - Mito Kanteidan. (In Mito city, of course)
I've had very little luck in these sorts of stores lately as some of them have started to carry less and less retro gaming and others haven't changed their prices in 10 years. Still others are rat's nests and impossible to negotiate (though I like that sort of shop). Mito Kanteidan was different. Clean and well-organized, they had all kinds of interesting gaming goodness at reasonable prices. I didn't have my camera with me so I can't share pictures, but believe me when I say they had an amazing selection. There was aisles of just about every every system imaginable, and tons of rare stuff (PC Engine LT, several 64DD games, even some Pippin soft). I found several items I had been looking for for some time, like these WonderSwan items:
That's the very-hard-to-find Handy Sonar and the just-about-as-hard-to-find Chocobo Fushigi na Dungeon pack. I also snagged some NeoGeo Pocket stuff I wanted and a used copy of Shoot the Bullet:
I'm pretty sure the Party Mail is brand new, too - it certainly looks like the sticker has never been removed. Not so rare but still interesting, I picked up some PS2 games as well:
Haven't had a chance to play either yet.
For those who might theoretically be interested in visiting this shop, don't consider it. It's really in the middle of nowhere and only accessible by car. Probably why they had such nice stuff.
Though I dont have a Famicom Disk System, I picked up Esper Dream and Gall Force: Eternal Story. A little preparatory buying never hurts.

Recently added Macross: Scrambled Valkyrie (loose cart) and Super Back to the Future Part II (CIB) to my slowly-expanding Super Famicom collection.
Congrats!

Seeing how I'm currently living in Osaka, this was technically an "import" for me:
I CANNOT believe my luck!
