I found the photos again, which I took before leaving Japan. They show what I bought (game-wise) in Japan this summer from 2 angles. :)   Most of the stuff was unbelievably cheap. That's why I could afford it. I only spent some 100$. :) If I just had the time (:( ) I'd put up a homepage with pics of every single item.

Sorry, not 100... I meant several 100$. :oops:
between 400 and 500 I think. But even then it's quite cheap. I got a NEW boxed N64 and Mega Drive.
I got many other consoles in great shape and lots of games.

You got some cool stuff, especially the white saturn and the famicom disk system.
Are the figures in a line across the front of the picture (to the left of the DS) nintendo characters? I can't make them out too well.

Yes, those are Nintendo figures. :) They are Pepsi bottlecaps. There was a campaign in Japan with these before I got to Japan, so my wife's brother collected a few for me. :o Unfortunately the set is not complete. Here I took a photo especially for you. :o

Thanks for the picture! They look even cooler in the "8 bit" style.
It is a shame it's not a complete set, but I think they're still nice to own, especially if the campaign only happened in Japan.

I will try to get the complete set.
There must be floating lots of figures around in used and collector's shops. Shouldn't be too expensive, either. :)

For around $500 that is very very good!! I mean a DS, Gamecube, Dreamcast, MegaDrive, Saturn, and an N64plus all the other things is probably worth around 1,500. That N64 is AWESOME!!

I think it cool in other countries that they have promotional stuff (like the pop tops ect). It reminds me of these mini star wars busts that my husband has from Danish cereal boxes (don't know if it was Kellogs, GM, or Post). .

That N64 is AWESOME!! I got the DS for free on my birthday. :D Yay. They had a sale in a music store for the N64. They also had the Pokemon edition... If they still have it next time I go that'll be mine, too. :wink: Gamecube was also free. Got it with 3 games from a friend of my wife. :o Saturn was 1 Yen (1USc), it's "not tested", though, but hey, I can make a piggy bank, a tissue holder or anything else out of it if it doesn't work. :D

Actually I wanted to buy so much more (there were Superscopes, Super Famicoms, Famicoms, Saturns and unbelievable masses of other hardware), but both money and suitscase-volume weren't enough by far. :cry:
I want to be a millionaire. :wink:

From your posts I know you are pretty a freak about gaming... that's why you really should go to Japan. Preferrably the big cities. What you can find there is beyond your wildest dreams (perhaps) :)

I always have an eye open.
But I guess, looking for those in Japan is best.
US and European freak fans have more money than me and will most probably outbid me on eBay. :lol:
