I recently arrived back in the U.S. for my sister's wedding and this was what I could fit in my suitcases. I have plenty of stuff still back in my place in Japan that I will have to find some way of shipping back here!

Some game numbers:

saturn 41

n64 7

dreamcast 2

gba 1

gb 2

snes 25

Now I'm jealous.... someday I wish I could learn enough Japanese so that simply importing wouldn't be a problem.

Awesome!

It's going to be a little hard to start paying eBay prices when you eventually do move back so gather all you can now.

Right now, you're just looking at stupidly priced shipping :wink:

Ship to yourself by boat if you have a big haul. It's cheap and takes 6-7 weeks. I took up half a container with all my crap...not just gaming stuff but a lot of car parts and other things.

Some of you guys might be able to bask in my wealth. I picked up doubles of a lot of games I already had in English because I really wanted them to be CIB and to help me retain my Japanese ability when I finally return to the U.S. As a result, in the future I'll be looking to unload all of my cart/disc only stuff. Some of the stuff to look forward to will be:

Final Fantasy II (IV), III (VI)
Secret of Mana
House of the Dead II
Shining Force III
Dragon Force
Saturn Bomberman
X-Men vs. Street Fighter
and so on...
