So many beautiful things!

I especially loved the transformers!

If I ever go to japan, it will make my wallet cry!

In Japan the packaging of games (and the cover art too) definitely looks hell of a lot more appealing than in the US, I have to say.

Japanese Megadrive games look so nice on a shelf, I just love the cover art. I wish I had more but most of the games are insanely expensive.

I will be going to Japan next month for a tour guided vacation. I have carefully noted all of the places in the thread to keep an eye out for but I am not sure that I will be going to any of those locations. Do you have any store suggestions for these locations? :
Tokyo: Imperial Palace Plaza area, Asakusa district, Ginza District, Toyo, Koto-ku
Mt. Fuji area: Kawaguchiko machi mincini tsurgun yamanashiken
Kyoto: Kinkaku-ji,Golden Pavilion, Kiyomizu Temple area, Kyoto Prefecture, Higashiyama ward
Nara and Osaka: not sure what areas
Tsukiji fish market area

Hopefully some of that makes sense and thanks for any suggestions!
