Anyone know the best place to go to find a Japanese Dreamcast in Tokyo? I've seen plenty of good deals on games, but I'm having a hard time finding a cheap system. I live in Nerima, but even with a couple trips to Akihabara, I haven't seen any below about 6,000 yen (~$60). I went to a Book Off near my house, but they hardly had any games; where are the big Book Offs? My Japanese isn't good enough to navigate the website. Where should I look for a DC?

If you know anyone who speaks Japanese and will let you use their credit card, by far the best way to get DC stuff is Yahoo Auctions. I paid ¥3000 for a set of two DCs, two guns, three controllers, four memory cards, two rumble packs, Crazy Taxi, Sonic, Space Channel 5, and a dozen other games.
Finding used DC hardware in shops can be very expensive, I think because of the law passed last year banning the sale of used electronics with internal power supplies, unless they are inspected and given a stamp of approval.
