I've seen Neo MVS games occasionally on Yahoo Auction Japan, but I've yet to find them in a store in Tokyo.

BB? NBM? Galford Forever? Anyone else know?

G-Shop or G-Front(can't remember the name) on the main street in Akihabara, Tokyo has tons of MVS and PCBs. Some prices are pretty good too, picked up BBS2 and Real Bout for 1000yen each.
I think they are on the 2nd or 3rd floor.

G-Front is close to the huge Gamers building at the far end of the district. They are on the FOURTH floor.

Mak is close to the big T-Zone on the main street. Follow the same street back and you'll run into Try.

Funtom is down the street from the Bank of Tokyo-Mistubishi. (The Smoker's style lounge is on that corner too.)

There's another shop called Setup which on the back street close to McDonald's.

I might be able to hook you up with some authentic Neo extras (stickers, flyers, etc) since I know the guy at <a href="http://www.pcbland.com" target="_blank">PCB land</a>.

There's at least 3 that I know in Akihabara. I know where they are, but forgot their names, and I think 2 of them were mentioned. If you're going to Tokio, I think someone can help you out. I can show you...if you buy my train ticket there...I live in Ohsaski (aka Osaka).

Thanks!!

I got 'em all covered, chief.

I'm already near Tokyo, so you don't have to pay for that expensive Shinkansen ride.

Just pick up an issue of Arcadia and look in the back of the magazine. A lot of PCB sellers, including Mak and G-Front advertise in that magazine. Perhaps more.

Only Mak and Fillmore have English speakers.

River Service, too.

Do you guys know a place in Akihabara that sells modded systems, or will mod systems?

I'd like to be able to play some US games on my Japanese PS2...

I THINK Game Hollywood (not far from Club Sega) sells some modded systems. If you know where Trader 2 is, then you're in luck.

Wow, I was just at Trader 2 yesterday. I didn't see any modded systems, but then again, I was too busy looking at all the Neo carts. Next time I go back I'll check.

BTW, I've already got a PS2, do you know if they can mod it for me, or do they only sell pre-modded stuff.

Mak has Paul Touja, and Fillmore has um... whatever his name is. I used to visit their website all the time 4 years ago. Awesome PCB prices.

Paul left a while back. Senga-san is the English speaker there now.

Damn it, tsu! Call me.

I'll be out there next weekend.

P.S. It's not AT Trader 2, but very close to it.

That's what happens after 4 years...

BTW - I hated trying to do business with Makjp. Too restrictive. They basically tried their best to make it as expensive as possible.

OK, thanks for the info.

I'll shoot you a PM before the weekend, maybe we can hook up. I know RBJakeSpecial is in Chiba, he might want to hang out for the day as well.
