games, games, and more games

I knew when I decided to come to Japan that I would end up buying a lot of games here. I'd already decided to buy Jump Superstars, and it was the first game I bought, but after seeing the huge selection of DS games in Japan, I've been doing more research on them. I found this thread on the Nintendo forums on games to import that makes me want most of the games on the list. There's also a Japanese dictionary that includes handwriting recognition for kanji outside of that list that I want to get. I just bought the Prince of Tennis: Crystal Drive game at the discounted re-release price last week. I suck at tennis games, but I like the anime, so I'm getting better at tennis games.

I was already planning to go to Toys-R-Us tomorrow to get the kanji dictionary, but I'm tempted to get Ouendan or Bleach from the list instead. Especially since the original voices are in the game for Bleach. The Daigasso and Naruto games also look interesting, and I've been watching the commercials for Cooking Mama here on TV for a while now wondering whether or not it'd be worth it to get it without understanding the recipes. I think I'll get the translated version in the States, though, unless my Japanese gets really good in the next few months or so, which is unlikely. Who am I kidding? I will probably end up getting all the games on this list eventually. It's really just a matter of what order I'll get them in. It doesn't help that every Toys-R-Us here is pretty much fully stocked with everything but DS Lites, and I live close to a pretty big one. In any case, when I disappear again, you'll at least know why.
