Does anyone happen to know a good website where I can get Japanese imports of Nintendo games and consoles?

About the only things I think I would want to import would be the Starfi games. And maybe Giftpia. And possibly Doshin the Giant (though I hear that came out in the UK, too). Of course, I'd have to hack to get rid of region locking or buy another console or something... Honestly I've just been considering, when I go to Japan eventually, picking up a cheap, used JP GBA and a bunch of games.

The Starfi games aren't very good.  There are far better games to import.
Also, handhelds don't have region locking.

Isn't Stafy like Kirby minus copying abilities plus 72% swimming stages?

Yeah, and even easier too.

Well then, do you have any good import titles to suggest--because my dreams have just been shattered?

Personally, I've really enjoyed Game & Watch for the DS.

Genki Video Games seems like the best one listed.

Thank you kindly!  I've got an itching for something new, and I'm tempted by Ouendan 2.

The only Japanese Console/Games I've ever considered getting were a Japanese Ps2, KH:FM, and KH2:FM+ with Re:COM.

I think it stinks that you need a Japanese console to play a Japanese game. It'll be really expensive.

That's not even true.
That was a joke.
