Topic: First Imported Game System?

I was going through my game closet last night and came across my Super Famicom console, the first game console I ever imported. This thing hasn't seen the light of day (until last night when I snapped the pic) since a week before the Super Nintendo console was released in the US when I boxed this baby up after 7 months of faithful service and more hours of Super Mario World than I could ever count. I imported the system in December 1990, not long after it was released in Japan as I couldn't wait the extra 8 months for the US release. I'm impatient that way.

So what was the first game console you imported?

Never imported one that I recall.

That's a beautiful SNES Corbie! Your so lucky!

Actually I've never Imported a system, yet, but I have imported gaming related accessories if that counts for anything.

Whoa, that is awesome Corbie! I have never imported a game system before. However, I am considering importing a Japanese PSP from PlayAsia because they have all those really cool colors that we never get here in the US.

Gameboy Advance SP.

I've never imported a system, I've imported a few games though, as follow.

Resident Evil 3 (PSX) - Christmas Present
Parasite Eve (PSX)
Final Fantasy: Anthology (PSX)
Final Fantasy: Tactics (PSX)
Xenogears (PSX)

None of which I still own, because I sold my PS2+1 many years ago.

Well, now that you mention it I have imported a "console" if this counts haha:

For those of you who doesn't know about "Pocketstation" it was a memory card for PS1 that doubled as a mini-game system. Where certain games would save a side-game on your Pocketstation that had some interesting synergies for the main games. I remember a mini game where a chocobo would go around digging for treasure which I could then upload for special items in Final Fantasy 8(i think it was 8).

It was imported from the US, the games too.

I never imported a console before. Though I am considering importing games someday (for the SNES).
I do have Game Boy games from Europe; Aladdin (Game Boy Color), Shrek: Fairy Tale FreakDown, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (Game Boy Advance), Mario Kart: Super Circut, Super Mario Advance, Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX, and King of Fighters Ex: Neo Blood.

Never had reason to import a console. I'm lucky enough to live in the civilized world.

Never imported (yet) but will very soon!

I imported a Mega Drive from Japan as a lad. My first games were Magical Flying Hat Turbo Adventure and Arrow Flash! It was such a step up in graphics from the humble Master System, I loved it to death

I later went on to import a SNES when it first came out in Japan too. Blame Mean Machines magazine for that! hehe

Hm, I've never imported a system before.
This is the only thing I've imported:

I almost imported a Mega Drive as well, but my college tuition took care of that tought.

The only system i have imported was a 20in1 Pocket Megadrive US version by Tectoy & atGames .
It has a built in LCD thou the games are downscaled to suit the LDC resolutions plus it plugs into a TV for that glorious NTSC fuzzynes all for the price of an average DS game .

Neo Geo CD. The one with the 1X drive. At least I have a chance to catch a nap between stages.

Hell, you can take a small vacation in between rounds with that thing. : ) I have a CDZ and it's not much better.

So far I've never imported anything, though I'm thinking of getting a Famicom or a Saturn at some point. Luckily, Level-1 games down at the mall is selling both.

I've only received a Wiimote and nunchuk imported from Hong Kong.

I've got a Famicom boxed up somewhere, although I didn't get it until years later when the internet came around.

Well I don't have any imported consoles but I do have alot of imported games.

In my early teens, I washed cars month upon month at the weekends and, eventually, had enough saved to import a Mega Drive. (And, yes, It was totally worth it!)
