Hm? Not sure whether you misunderstood something. The contract thing was company <-> company contracts. Like, some company is selling something and you show up with an expensive car to help your chances with exclusively selling their products. Well, the attract screen is technically an actual gameplay demo but I mean actual gameplay done by "normal" people, rather than the company selling the game. Would have to look at it for a bit longer to discern whether it was done by the company or by fans.

It wasn't even that large here and with the decline of births, it would have fallen even further. I really wanted to go but they didn't like my back, so I was denied service and easy money.

It's pedestrians as well and for them it's not illegal to not pay attention. Regarding smartphones...enough people on a bicycle use them, unfortunately. If it was for me, half the people in general shouldn't be allowed to participate on the streets or pavements in any way. If police would drive undercover a lot more often, they would be making bank with all the fines. Yep, it finally moved again and went to Great Britain then and afterwards to Germany. At least that was super quick. Though, there were getting close to their deadline too, so they had to hurry up. Regarding Mercari since I've basically never interacted with them and they don't really show up on Google...in regards to Suruga-ya and YA, are there more niche games, less in general or more?

Retro game prices affect me too, unfortunately. At least, as soon as I'm done with them, I'm basically out of there. Also saw the Serial Experiments Lain PSX game yesterday on YA, after one day it was already at 45k Yen. So...yeah. The mail order extra CDs for Alicesoft are pretty expensive as well. The previously mentioned Evenicle Rance is always 3000+ Yen too, same with the other boni that are like that. Hehe. As long as it's not "relevant" aka some drama CD or extra content (like the Evenicle Rance), it doesn't bother me. Posters don't matter that much, same with telephone cards or some stickers. But yeah, I guess it's a way for some stores to stay relevant. Otherwise, bigger stores would get bigger and smaller ones smaller, I guess. Lucky bugger. Maybe they just looked at the worth of the content and waived it through. Here, everything gets added, though, you can get lucky too and they ignore the shipping costs. If you have to personally go to the "local" customs office, everything is always added, no exceptions.

Yep, though, they usually released something at the end of the year....like Alice 2010. Then again, we might just see it at the end of next year. At least around that time (December) they usually released something Alice-related. See here for instance: https://auctions.c.yimg.jp/images.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/image/dr187/auc0303/users/4/0/9/8/gsyhs958-img494x599-1448209490ffhpl18367.jpg No news yet though.
