    I'm in Japan and want a USA Premium 360 and games

    I'm in Japan and want a USA Premium 360 and games, because, although many 360 games are region free, old Xbox ones aren't and most of them were never released here or are difficult to get hold of.

    Does anyone know anywhere online I can order this, and have it on a ship heading to Japan in time to be my Christmas present to myself?

    Ideally I'm after:

    The Xbox 360 Premium Pack
    DOA4
    Gears of War
    Chrome Hounds
    Lost Planet (if it's out by the time I get round to this)
    Halo 1 & 2 (Xbox naturally)
    Enchanted Arms
    Project Gotham 3
    Phantasy Star Universe

    Play Asia ship from HK or VG+ in Canada.

    http://www.play-asia.com/

    http://www.videogamesplus.ca/

    I have used both a couple of times. I ordered a JPN DS Lite from Play Asia on a Tue. and had it in my hands two days later on Thu. VG+ will take longer unless you splash out on a courier service which would be a good idea if you are planning on splashing that kind of cash.

      Play-Asia don't do 360 hardware, at least not American - only Japanese. Going to check out VG+.

        Oh really, sorry then. I thought they handled US units.

          It seems VG+ do it, thanks. Their prices don't seem that bad either.

          All I need to do now is evaluate whether I REALLY want it

            If you are in Toyko, a few shops in Akihabara do imported hardware. Game Hollywood is one. I think it's bit pricey, however.

              Hmm, how pricey is pricey do you know? Like How much as a USA 360? With delivery, it might be just as easy to buy it in Akiba.

                Just checked that out, it's 62k yen, which is around 280quid. It's not so bad, but annoying when the 360 in Japan would be at most 45k with the premium extras. Still waiting for a quote off VG+ though.

                    Just below Game Hollywood is another, similar shop, called Messe Sano, which also does imported games and hardware. Worth a look before you go to Game Hollywood if you end up getting it in Akihabara.
