Why don't more people import games? For example with the Gameboy Advance, US and Japanese games work straight onto an English GBA so you can get games earlier. As for Gamecube, the new Freeloader disc is coming out soon so people can get NTSC games from abroad and play them months before their PAL release.

I import a lot of stuff from DVD Box Office (dvdboxoffice.com). They have got Resident Evil for £17, Resident Evil Zero for £26, and all the latest releases - never costing over £34! Zelda is only £29.65! They also have free shipping from canada, so its great all round... I've had ten games from them, and its come to less than £260 so far. Nice.

I don't play my GBA that much, but I MAT import in SMB for it.

Freeloader has been delayed WAY too many times now.
