In Japan renting games was banned after pressure from the game industry. I know Nintendo was very heavily involved in the lobbying but I don't know about Sega.
I missed this earlier in the thread.
If you look at Japanese games, some of the older ones specifically say that rental is prohibited on them.
Yea. there is a way around it thought.
Some shops like Geo are advertising that if you bring back new released games after 7 days from buying it, they will give your money back, minus 10$.
A lot of people just rush through the games, and surely enough, a week or so after release there is already a tons of used games for 5$ less than the brand new game.
What a guy...I bet he was the life of every party. I didn't know a single person who had a NG growing up and I still have yet to meet someone who has one today. That's the Real Deal.

Just take the money you were going to spend on this current generation of consoles, and you'd have a nice collection. Revisit the current generation 3 years from now when everything is much cheaper.
