Back in Japan to stir up trouble, eh?

(tags blogger, game, ECsite, purchase, used, omake)

That Wired guy and Nintendo Kyoto-ex-groupie Chris Kohler of Game|Life on Wired Blogs returns to Japan for a spell. He's also here to mesmerize you with his blurry-ninja-cam buying antics in Tokyo's finest gaming places. Unfortunately it looks like the full feeds aren't kicking (you only get a title and a link to the real post on his feed) probably because he's posting from greesy Internet cafes.

The most interesting are the actual purchases: a Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2 for the GBA (I salivate, but I already have two copies) and a McDonalds Tamago Big Mac (I salivate, wait, Super Size Me! Ok I'm good).

When I'm in Tokyo again, I've gotta checkout that Mandarake Galaxy near Shinjuku (which he introduces as "The Best Video Game Store in Japan"). Must be filled with Nintendo stuff.
