Australian blogger Jamie Sam (which is actually two people, but I digress), has put up a little expose of sorts. Seems there's a massive used game store in the gumyo area of togane, southeast of tokyo, off the togane or keiyoo lines. Images of the stops before and after right here.

The store, the front of which you can see here, is massive. He claims it looks like an adult shop from the outside, but I say it looks more like a right-wing nationalist organization's headquarters - the type that rides around in vans yelling pro-japan slogans from the bullhorn on top.

Just look at all this famicom disc system software, or this older hardware. Trouble is, though this place is absolutely huge, and looks quite impressive, the hardware prices all look a bit high, which could bode ill for getting nice deals there. Though the SFC Square Enix RPG collection looks alright at 5,000 yen (bottom right, includes the FFs and DQs), round about here you'll feel you shouldn't be paying 2,480 yen for Tales of Phantasia.

That said, there are simply rows and rows of the stuff, so this might well be a place to check out if you're in the area. [Original post by bsheffield, X-posted from IC with permission and lurve!]
