We’ve learned (via NeoGAF) that Amazon Japan now ships video games and video game consoles to overseas purchasers.

It’s worth pointing out that you can only import games and game consoles sold by Amazon, and not third party sellers. You should also keep in mind consoles and games that are region-free, while some platforms (mostly older consoles, or Nintendo-based ones) are region-locked.
