    Is this a serious question? ;-)
    You can get wonderswans for a few bucks everywhere,if you want more or less rare stuff go for very limited editions (like the xbox limited one in japan),or retro stuff like msx computers,prototypes,dev stuff,but of course you need $$$ to afford that ;-)

    I don't think Echigoya knows the rarity of things outside of Japan. Think of how many "rare" games on Ebay are common in Japan.

    wonderswan is rare nowhere in a world,why should a regular console be rare in any way? ;-)
    All the stuff I listed is rare everywhere in the world.

    You don't consider the Wonderswan rare outside Japan?

    I know they can be had quite easily...All I would have to do is go on eBay...but I don't see people walking down the street with them.

    I know that round here most people haven't heard of a Wonderswan ^_^ I wonder if I could trick my local GAME into giving me an excellent trade-in price on one? Like *insert the name I forgot* did with teh Game.com

    GAME are a bunch of MUPPETS anyway they don`t have a clue :smt017
    Spotty 17 year olds that have got a PS2 for Xmas and love GTA-VC and think they are gaming gods :smt043 :smt043

    Now if you went into yourlocal GAMESTATION they would do. A freind of mine has just left New Age Consoles http://www.newageconsoles.com/ to work for Gamestation.

    He was advised by his area Manager that they employ gamers.....which I can back up as my local shop they are on the ball. Even older SNES/SS games etc that are rare(ish) are priced accordingly. They even take in Neo Geo Pockets. Now you ask a GAME employee what these are. :smt017

    Well, not everyone knows that... especially someone that likely hasn't been out of Japan, doesn't really have a high command of the English language.

    Aaargh how familiar... sadly that's what (mainstream) media is focusing on here, and what most new gamestores seem to be aiming at :Hangman:
    (however it's more likely 15 year olds in my situation, even worse :snipe: )
