I've been doing this for years, you don't need to create a new account, u can use you U.S account and if you have prime shipping is free most of the time
Our Australian government screwed us. Not only do we already pay more for things they recently added another online tax so now any Amazon outside off the Australian who'll not ship to us. And guess what the Australian Amazon had like 1%or less of what the other Amazon's have and what they do have can be 500% more for three same item. I hate or government so much. I could have bought this for about $120 now it would cost me $220 as Play Asia likes to stop people of as much as possible. They don't follow regular shop pricing they charged the maximum they can get away with.
I noticed in the video one of the Amazon searches listed “Your search fart was automatically translated”. Do they have better gas in Japan? Seriously, I enjoy the channel and your videos. I enjoy the humor, high quality content and video editing of the videos. Keep them coming.
It's funny you made a video talking about this I made a video earlier today and I touched on the issue but all I did was just change my region from one region to the other but making a full on account probably would be better I've yet to order anything from the Japan side of my Amazon account but I just got a package in today from the UK side of my Amazon account and it came surprisingly fast and like you said shipping wasn't that bad...
Just had my 50th Anniversary Shonen Jump Famicom edition delivered yesterday. Bought on eBay from a seller in Portland, OR for a total just under $86 including shipping. Looking to add the regular and super editions of the Famicom minis along with both the PAL versions as well. Great info on the Japan Amazon. Will definitely need to try that out for other Japan only exclusives. Take care.
Buddy I get this error "Sorry, this item can't be shipped to your selected address. Learn more. You may either change the shipping address or delete the item from your order." no matter what I do...shipping to US
Good stuff Dave. One suggestion for the cheapskates out there.... depending upon your credit card it might be cheaper to let amazon bill in JPY rather than in USD. If you are buy $100+ it's probably at least worth checking. Oh, and don't try and justify buying a famicom mini (or any other purchase). I'm pretty sure you aren't buying it to play FF3 in Japanese :) You are buying it because it's cool. And you are buying another one because it's gold. Trust us, we understand.
Wait, since when was the japanese yen worth less than the usd? Back in highschool it was worth more. I guess shit happened. Can someone maybe explain what?
I used Amazon Japan around 2002 to buy some CDs from a band I had then recently discovered. I live in the Azores Islands and even so they didn't take too long to arrive and the prices were indeed worth it. Nowadays I frequently use the Spanish one, even if I'm Portuguese, because of the much lower shipping costs when comparing to the American or even British Amazon stores.
Kalem Miranda I was born on S. Miguel, but my father's from Pico, so I'm 50-50. ;) All my life I was lucky enough to get to see S. Jorge just lying there in front of me (and so close!) whenever I went to my grandma's house on Pico. Those were the days... :)
It sure is loooovely isn't it. I walked into a local store the other day and they had a stack of them going for around $65 US after the conversion rate. I feel like buying a extra one just to have it sit outside of the box on my shelf....or is that crazy talk?
OtakuOverkill these things are everywhere here around Yokohama and Tokyo. Visit hardoff and you’ll find em cheap. Mostly because most games are crap. And not many people care about them.
@@Frietuurs Thank you for the message. Hardoff, Bookoff, etc. are among my favorite stores in Japan. They have many interesting things. Not only game related are of my interest, but the prices are good.
Dave you have really amped it up this summer and someone is noticing ;)
Noticed how thin the content is?
my god im i the only one that watches him to see how adorkable he is......cuz HE IS!
Dave buddy If you have a Gold Famicom your life is golden
"You search "fart" was translated" let's see who can find that text in the video XD
Wow hahahahaha
Sexy sexy sexy!! Oh and a famicon mini
GAMEDAVID-MAKES-ALLL-THEM-GOOD-VIDS
“David, you already have a Nintendo! Me and ur father are not buying you another. Do you think money grows on trees?!?!”
Sweetly :-O it's pure golden like your content!
I've been doing this for years, you don't need to create a new account, u can use you U.S account and if you have prime shipping is free most of the time
That's cool. Wasn't expecting a gold version though.
Ur my hero dave... Go for gold
💪👺👍
Makes a video about the Shonen Jump Famicom, doesn't play the games, fills the rest of the video about how to buy stuff on Amazon Japan
Joseph Cotta listen you deaf person. He is going to review it later.
Peter Panda lol he is soo deaf
5:45 "Your search "fart" was automatically translated" what..? 😂
Cut all those lame jokes, it's really hard to get through the video. The content is nice, but don't try to be like those other unfunny youtubers.

I like this guy, I think I love you..... I'm not gay; just like a man crush, but ummmI LIKE YOU A-LOT. kisses and winky winky.....
No matter what I choose on amazon Japan, I just get an error saying it can’t ship to me 😞
I got 2 shonen jump famicoms About 45$/consol
But of 1 was sent accidently so i payed it to store but saved 1 shipping so total was aroun 16000¥
If you already have an American account do need a second credit card for the Japan account?
"Cheaper than eBay" isn't really saying much tbh, people on eBay almost always highball their prices like hell.
works for UK if anyone is interested, been doing this for a while but good work in getting this out there Sir :)
The hell is a family computer I know what a famicom Is but no family computer
really dude, you are searching farts on amazon japan, whats wrong with you lol
This famicom is region locked? can i buy one in europe from ebay and use it on my tv?
GORUDU FAMICOMU?
How many results for "fart" did you get? Nice vid.
So glad your doing good. Came along way from the 90s.
Nice videos jabrony I fugs with you hard my guy
Game Dave, can I leave something in your bush XD
I see that sneaky lil Octopath Traveler hanging out in the background! Gamer David, what are your thoughts on that game?
At 5:45 you searched for "fart" haha
I paid only 67€ for the famicom mini Gold
5:45 wait, what have you been searching...
You just blew my fricken mind
Need! That gold is everything 🤩 I was looking into buying it from eBay but will have to try it your way to ship to Canada for sure
Your fart was automatically translated.
Can you really class something bought off Amazon as 'found'?
theflyingninja1 not to mention Play-Asia has in stock too so not a big deal to "find" something that is available everywhere.
theflyingninja1 if you....find...it on Amazon then yes haha
Trizzy Nahhh I went to the shops this morning and FOUND a carton of milk and some bread.
theflyingninja1 you should make a UA-cam video about it!!!
theflyingninja1 do a LP on that
Thanks Game Dave, Very cool
Very informative Gaming Davydd

How do you afford all those games?
I picked up a 2016 famicom mini at a toys r us in kyoto for about 5800 yen
Wil Bourke that’s about $53 ?
You search fart😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's funny you made a video talking about this I made a video earlier today and I touched on the issue but all I did was just change my region from one region to the other but making a full on account probably would be better I've yet to order anything from the Japan side of my Amazon account but I just got a package in today from the UK side of my Amazon account and it came surprisingly fast and like you said shipping wasn't that bad...
Okay, but how can I melt down a bunch of gold and coat my regular Famicom with it?
Hey that's a neat idea! I didn't realize this was even an option, thanks for the hot tip, Dave! :)
Dedinitely sold out by now
I hate you now I have to have one!!!
LOL. @ Mouthhugs.....4:24

I sent my japanese wife to buy all three IN STORE. Although shipping and handling is a little more expensive
Got all of the Famicom Classic Minis but not the Gold Special Edition featuring Weekly Shonen Jump from Amazon Japan!
I love you Dave but I refuse to buy from amazon. I'd rather pay a more expensive price than be a part of the exploitation/tax evasion
Thank You!
good work lol
....bushes....🤣👌
How did you get the famicom mini jump? Noone on amazon japan will ship that system to the usa?
The k your for your service. Originally I was going to buy those 3 from play Asia but you just saved me bro. So thank you for this
2:36
There should have been a loud gong sound after he said Japan.
Thanks Dave!!! I’ve been pining for this particular “bundaruu” for some time now. Today! Today is my day!
*mouth hug**mouth hug*😚😚
Wow.
WoW!
So would you say that playing on the Shonen Jump edition is a Gold Experience?
Always forget that the US SNES looked different to the PAL SNES
damn I got hear early. Wasn't expecting a video regarding the Gold Famicom (at least sorta)
I like how Amazon automatically translated your search of “fart”
Everything you said in this video is exactly how it happened today when I got my first package from a different region on my Amazon account
*fArt*
When I have money I'll be looking into that Amazon Japan.
Thank you so much, now I can get a Gameboy Light
“Leave it in my bush” sounds like something she said! Lol!
Wait, since when was the japanese yen worth less than the usd?
Back in highschool it was worth more.
I guess shit happened.
Can someone maybe explain what?
Jarrod Walker it's always been less. Japan imports would be too expensive and it would crush their economy.
While this is great and all, those shipping costs. Yeeeks.
Now the secret is out Japanese Amazon is fantastic ☺
You didn't have to pay for customs?
"buy it on amazon japan". Vid could have been less than 5 seconds long.
are you sure less 5 seconds only?
Thanks for the tips game dave
Wow, that gold Famicom Mini is gorgeous!
There aren’t enough places to play super street fighter 2. Until I can play it on the bus, train, plane, car, bike & toilet I won’t be truly happy!
Ramjet164 Smartphone+ emulator+SSFII ROM=Problem Solved.
Mambi Moisture knew someone would say this lol.
Need a Bluetooth arcade stick as well.
Would love the shonenn jump one
Thanks Game Dave!
