Found this auction ending tomorrow on Yahoo Auctions that I thought some people might be interested in: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p550560843

It's a system with 4 out of the 5 Japanese only games, including Togepi's Great Adventure, which is becoming increasingly harder to find on yahoo auctions. Also at the time of posting the auction is only at around £26, which is incredibly cheap considering people try to sell just one of these games for over £500 on eBay. To purchase this, you'll need to use a shopping service. The one I personally recommend is zenmarket.jp, which is very easy to use. When you've signed up for an account, just enter the link/item number (p550560843) in the search engine on zenmarket and the auction should come up.

I'm personally not interested in this auction as of now, as I already have all of the Jap only games in good condition, but hope someone on here will find this useful and will be able to get these awesome games for cheap. :D

Did you manage to win them? The auction went up a lot, but the final price was still very reasonable for all of those games.

For anyone wondering: 23,800 yen is like $220 U.S. A bit too much for me, I'm afraid.

Did you notice that the race has a wrong cart inside - it's not the race but pinball. I won it and even if I don't get the race, $220 is fine price for togepi. pichu bross and breeder as throw-ins make it even a better deal.

BTW Thanks for the notice!

I didn't notice that it had pinball inside! :?
Glad someone on here managed to snag that anyway. I guess the box in itself for race will be pretty rare anyway. Finally I'm pretty sure a while back I saw an unboxed race for sale on maybe Amazon.jp I think it was. so maybe look into that if you want to get a complete set for yourself or for resale purposes. Also no problem for the notice :D

Any chance you'd sell Race box and inserts? I have a loose cart I'm looking to complete
