Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 21hFelt like a pretty fair price on a seemingly-new #Dreamcast VMU. 030
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Used my recent Treasure Factory rally earnings (from going to 7x different branches) and got Pokémon Pinball CIB for ¥1500 off. 1101
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Surprised to find a 1981 Game & Watch FIRE in a Hard-Off junk bin thrown in amongst random controllers and things. I don’t know too much about G&W, but I think this was the version released in Western markets. No manual or battery cover (but it powers on). 120
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 02/10/2026New issue is Nintendo Dream comes with a 162-page full-color encyclopedia of Nintendo game history. I feel this is one of the better magazine supplements lately. 191
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Rescued this QuickShot arcade stick from the BookOff junk corner for a few hundred yen. First time seeing one. Turns out was never released in Japan, so must have been imported long ago by someone trying to get an upper hand in Street Fighter II. I'm shocked how many features it has given its age. 000
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Whoa, I knew it was a good deal insta-buy when I saw it, but didn’t realize this Super Famicom cart case goes for such stupid amounts online. 150
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Got a clean jewel case #FF3 OSV (with obi) from the junk section. This is the 1994 re-release. 010
Reposted by Just Japan GamesMaxwell Yezpitelok @mrmxy.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Found an account that's auctioning off a SHITLOAD of game flyers, including some for the Japan-only Super Mario Word arcade games. If you've never played these you're a fake gamer. (Names and Mario Wiki pages in alt text.) auctions.yahoo.co.jp/seller/2XUwy... 385
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Finally found some #ff6 keychains out in the wild. Most were unopened and even had the original booklet! All were from Set 1. Sadly no Edgar, but there were 6x Sabins/Mashes to make up for it.. I bought everything (12 total). 080
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I don’t usually buy old movie pamphlets, but when I do it’s because I’m a sucker for awesome retro art with katakana text 000
Reposted by Just Japan GamesVideo Game History Foundation @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Starting today, we're piloting Japanese magazines in our digital archive! We've spent the last few months upgrading our library infrastructure to support Japanese-language material, starting with the magazine Neo Geo Freak.

Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Can't get the Family Basic Data Recorder out of my mind after I saw it super clean in the wild behind the counter at a local recycle shop the other day (was was told it wasn't for sale). They don't sell online, so makes me think this place just saves all the good stuff for their fav local buyers... 010
Reposted by Just Japan GamesAlex Kraus @alexfkraus.bsky.social · 20/09/2026This polygonal game called FC-Pico running on stock Famicom hardware is incredibly impressive and would have definitely blown my mind as a kid. #GameLegend #ゲームレジェンド 59525
Reposted by Just Japan GamesAlex Kraus @alexfkraus.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I found the one guy in Japan who loves Atari Jaguar (a system that was never released here) and Tempest. I played for a bit, it was fun. 1304
Reposted by Just Japan GamesNathan Altice @altice.bsky.social · 18/09/2026The Cassette Famous Scene games specifically advertised reusing the included cassette case to store Famicom games (you can see this illustrated on the back of the blister pack), and you're correct that they included stickers as well. 121
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Still have a few more months to get some use of Suntory-ade's 1987 Nintendo Famicom Calendar. Next time won't be until 2037! 110
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Fanta Japan had a Nintendo64 promotion in 1996. You could win an N64 or games by collecting stickers. 110

Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Really cool unexpected junk bin find. Club Nintendo Hits - a 1995 CD from the Netherlands featuring Shaggy’s Boombastic and absolutely no video game music. Has an Ultra 64 ad in the booklet! 010
Just Japan Games @justjapangames.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Found this Super Mario Bros. Cassette Meibamen among junk Famicom carts. Thought there was going to be cardboard game pieces inside but was a cart with a label I haven’t seen before. Didn’t test yet, but wondering if anyone has info about what this could be? Is it just a sticker somebody slapped on? 241
