Does anyone know of any specific places in Tokyo (preferably on the western side) that sell chipped SLIM PSTwos?
I'd like to get my North American games shipped over to me and I figure that the additional shipping to send my PS2 will probably be quite high. Also in addition to playing NA games I would like to use it to watch Japanese movies (hence the need for the modchip.)

I have seen something called the Slide Card system, that allows you to play imported games on a PS2 w/o it being opened up for the chip soldering process. I haven't ordered one yet, so I'm not endorsing it or anything. I think there should be stores you order it online from so you can get it shipped to you. Just do a search on slide card on the net.

Thanks Senshi but with those systems I think you have to swap discs every time you want to do something (ie start up the PS2 with a normal disc, and then swap that disc with the import disc once it stops spinning)
I think I'd rather just pay a little extra for the convenience of not having to do that.
