ioi say's a lot of things and it was simply a guess on his part. He made an educated guess due to the bump in PS3 software sales not being high. What people do not understand is just how big the second hand market is in Japan.

You lot need to see what care the stores take of second hand games. Mint condition, would be impossible to tell it was second hand without being told and considerable cheaper. I rarely purchased a new game back in Tokyo because a few days later I would get the game in mint condition for a nice price.

 

That's what many people don't understand.  That's why there was a lag in time before PSP software sales started picking up there after the hardware was consistently higher for a while.  I remember tons of people talking about that as well and how the PSP was not really doing better, etc.

 

But yeah, I got a mint condition Super Famicon in original box, instructions, and even the warranty paper.

Wow that's pretty impressive, over here i'm lucky to get a used game that comes with a case, let alone manual. Hence why I never buy used games.
