what game?

[Anonymous No.9708659]

>>9708643
It's a mahjong game. They probably got it in a lot sale but don't know how to play it and can't sell it so they gave it to you to deal with it.

It's a decent game if you know how to play mahjong. It also comes with its own special controller that plugs into the front of the Famicom and I recommend using it (except you don't have it)

Well, I own the game. I can see the edge of his face on the bottom of the cassette and I can tell by the blue corner that it's a Capcom game and I know the game has red text so all of those factors give it away.

some parts of japan it's very hard to throw things out, there are a million rules on it and the best he could probably hope for is giving it to a junk/thrift store for almost nothing

of course if he's running the junk store and the cost to ship it to you was nothing well he's just taking advantage of the fact that throwing shit away in your country isn't stupid annoying

>If you look up from the forests at the foot of Japan’s Mount Fuji, the volcano’s graceful slopes rise into the distance and peak in a nearly symmetrical, snowcapped cone.

>If you look down in the forests, however, you see something much less elegant: trash. Lots of it. Just below the surface of leaves and topsoil are discarded microwave ovens, construction debris, broken office furniture. Even rusting refrigerators.

>“We’ve found everything from household trash to broken TV sets and other appliances,” said Mayumi Wakamura, who heads periodic cleanups of the mountain. “Sometimes we find hazardous materials like leaky old car batteries.”

>Nobody knows how much trash is buried on Fuji, but Wakamura’s Fujisan Club says it collected 187,000 pounds of illegally dumped garbage from the mountain’s slopes in the 12 months through March.

What the fuck are you talking about. Op already said that his package wasn't from Japan. Also I'm in Japan and our garbage is dealt with locally. I can see the local garbage plant from my balcony and they literally just burn that shit. The plant is a big tower and smoke comes out the top.
>>9710009
The lighting is different. That is all.
>>9710454
No that shit is overplayed by sensationalist articles like the one about that guy dumping 600+ idol CD's. Our garbage collection system is really good, there's absolutely no need to dump your shit in the mountains or forests.
>>9710520
Op already said the package wasn't from Japan. Also someone from Japan wouldn't be including extra shit in the package because shipping is expensive and it's based on weight. He could literally just put it in his 燃えるゴミ bag for free.

i didn't say it wasn't from Japan, in fact it WAS from Japan
but since the garbage thing isn't the case i have no idea. if it was just a gift i don't know why he'd ask me to dispose of it, hell even if he wanted me to throw it away i don't know why he wouldn't just lie and say it's a gift. i assume mahjong games are like sports games in that the demand for older titles is extremely low, so the only thing i can think of is he wanted to give away something he couldn't sell.

It would be 燃えるゴミ in literally every single prefecture. The different rules dictate how thoroughly you have to separate trash by category, it doesn't stop you from throwing anything away. And for the record, prefectures get to decide their own rules based on the facilities available, but most of them have the same rules.

Stop pretending you know anything about this country.

[Anonymous No.9711923]

>>9711725
Ok so I'll be damned. It is from Japan. But also look at the handwriting on the package, that's obviously gaijin handwriting. His kanji stroke order is wrong, and look at how he wrote the characters バッ when he wrote バッテリーなし (no battery). It's not correct, so he's definitely foreign. Also the Japanese above バッテリーなし isn't correct. And the English handwriting looks like it was written by a native speaker, and it especially looks like it was written by a male.

I think we can safely assume that the guy who sent you the game is an English teacher in Japan and he asked you to throw it away because he doesn't know which trash category to put it into. I don't understand why he didn't just give it to a thrift store for free in that case, but in guessing he probably can't navigate the sales process since he couldn't even properly fill out the shipping label.

What a weird case all around.

It gets better; N is the Draw key, and the Discard key when you have Riichi. Meaning, it's a video game where the N key is the most used key in the entire game.

You really don't need to resort to "he couldn't sell it" or "he wanted to escape trash disposal rules". The seller might simply have been doing something silly and absurd for fun. The use of the phrase "dispose of" doesn't contradict that. Maybe the game was part of an in-joke between friends or something, who knows.
