From the shopkeeper
Whatever you settle on, every console that leaves this shop has been opened, cleaned and tested by hand — and I will tell you honestly what it can and cannot do in your country before you buy.
I am the second generation of a shop my father opened in 1986. Every console leaves here
tested, and it ships from Japan with tracking.
