Importers and Japanese residents might want to get down to gaming mecca Akihabara today. Why? Because some crazy store is offering a “complete set” of 1,051 Famicom games for about $7,300. Complete set is in quotes because there’s a small caveat:

“‘[C]omplete set’ here refers to all the retail Famicom games sold from 1983 to 1994 and not the crazy rare (and pricey) cartridges like The Gentle Physics and Science of Hazardous Materials.'”

  1. Japan is gonna be full of Infendoites tonight! lol
    Not me though unfortunately, got college in the morning, wouldn't want to miss that for anything…. Sarcasm anyone? If I had the odd $8000 it'd cost to get me there, buy it, and get back, I'd be well up for this one! unfortunately that's a bit pricey for any gaming collection.
