Does anyone on /vr/ buy Sega Pico games? I'm a Sega fanboy and am looking into picking one up. I'm not interested in many US games other than the two Sonic games and Ecco, since the Pico is an educational tool first.
My real interest was I was thinking I could learn some Japanese by importing. Bandai seems to have made games based off most of their properties (Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, Sailor Moon, Ultraman, Godzilla, etc) and as a resident of /m/ that's peaked my interest. Most console games based off those properties at the time were shit so if I can at least learn something from the Pico games, I'd be alright. Also, pic related, the Ultraman set looks badass.
Any thoughts or knowledge on Sega Pico collecting are welcome. Two questions I do have is how it hooks up to a TV (you have to pass-through a VCR according to wiki?) and if its region-locked.

The Sega Pico is a babies system. You can't learn Japanese from it.
Actually buying and owning one/using one is pretty genuinely autistic, anon. It's a 90s toy for 5 year olds with little kids books.

Sonic's Gameworld looks better than some Sonic games. As a party game I'd play it over Sonic Shuffle based on the gameplay video I watched. The Tails game does sound autistic (literally) so I'm with you there. And looking into how it functions, it doesn't seem like the games actually tell a story so learning Japanese wouldn't be possible. But that just makes the games more accessible! The mystery of the Pico's library coupled with getting Sega games based off some of my favorite Bandai properties is what's appealing to me.
I have a Japanese one in the box.
Asian carts came in some nice hardshell cases.
I wonder if at this very moment on some 2ch thread, some Japanese collector is discussing his desire to import a Leapfrog.

Jesus fucking christ, dude. Take a look at your money and seriously ask yourself what you're considering spending it on and for what reasons.

I don't remember what I have exactly. I never did get around to trying it; it's sitting in storage somewhere. I just remember having some Sanrio titles, possibly Anpan Man too.
