    I need a cheap console to play some imports (mainly DDR :nod:). Does anyone have one for sell or that they want to get rid of? Thanks!

    EDIT: I don't need any controllers, just the hookups.

    Hm... I have a Japanese PS2 that won't play normal PS2 games, but it'll play PS2 CD-ROM games so it would probably play PS1 games too. Although, last time I tried it it wouldn't play anything. I'll see if I can get it to work, if you want.

    That would be cool. Let me know if it works. I really only need it to play Japanese PSX games.

    Either one if I can get a good deal. If it's a PS2 I just need the console, I've already got hookups and controllers. Pretty much whatever I can get to play my 3 NTSC-J DDR games. :dance:

    I've been searching eBay all day today and have had little luck...

    I have a PlayStation one with 12 or so games and 2 pads and memory card that I'll sell but shipping would probably bugger it. It would be comeing from Japan. how much do you want to pay for it?

    Well, so far here's a couple I've found:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/SONY-Play-Station-Console-Import-JAPAN_W0QQitemZ320169083364QQihZ011QQcategoryZ62054QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem

    It's a good deal at $35 but shipping is $48 from Japan!

    Here's another

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130170694673&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123

    I asked the seller if he would accept a BiN but he doesn't know how much it's worth, that's why he has it as an auction. Shipping is only $14 from Maryland.

    So, I'm looking in the $30-$45 price range + shipping. The cheaper the better. This isn't for a collection or anything, so condition isn't super important as long as it works. I don't really need any games at the moment (I have too many that I'm trying to play right now). But a memory card would be really nice. Thanks you guys!

    And it's a Japanese one? Hmmm if he doesn't jump on that I might consider.

    Stick with the forums until someone from the US offers you one. Not worth paying $48 to ship it here from Japan unless you really have the money to burn.

    Yeah, definitely. I just sent the payment for one. $45 inlcuding shipping. It comes with leads, memory card, and controllers. Not bad imo. Thanks everyone! Soon I'll be able to dance the night away! :thumbsup:
