Hey guys,

I was just wondering, besides Amazon, eBay and Play Asia, do you any of you recommendations or know of any online retailers that sell import games (games that were not released outside of Japan for example) and ship to North America (including Canada)?

CDJapan is pretty good. I've ordered from them multiple times. Their shipping is pretty fast as well. AmiAmi is another site to check out. I haven't actually ordered from them before, but I do have Gundam Extreme VS Full Boost preordered through them. Their prices are the cheapest I've seen. Especially compared to Play-Asia.

Thanks, CD Japan had what I wanted in stock so I put in the order and hopefully it will arrive in their average shipping time rather than the up to 8 weeks bit.

AmiAmi is what I've been using to get things like Gundam VS, Madoka Portable and Project Diva. cool.gif Nippon-Yasan is also highly recommended as unlike AmiAmi they give you your shipping quote up-front.

For a second, I read that as "Gundam VS. Madoka". 10/10, would buy.

Sadly a similar concept's already been done, but it was with SD Gundam so 0/10 would never touch.

Fortunately Madoka's bound to be in the next iteration of Magical Battle Arena at least, so it'll get some cross-universe fightan.

You can find Extreme Stage just about anywhere for around $30. I know Amazon has it for sure.

Nope.

New to me at least. The last time I knew an Initial D non-arcade game existed was the PSP game.

It's new to you, but only a modest number of people had it since it came out.
