    And we do have quite a big Japanese-speaking contingent here, I think. Not to the level of somewhere like NeoGAF which has a huuuuge import community who are mostly Japanese-fluent, but still quite a few~

    I hardly play anything any more either. ._. I wish I played more, because my other foreign languages would be soooo much better if I was passionate enough to play through games in those languages. :/
    Pretty much.

    I mean, I'm still going through some PS2 games that I bought new. My main issue is starting something. It's so much easier to leave the shitty football game in the console etc...

    Possibly? I still have that other exam, though.

    I looked at some of the sample questions on their site and while N4 and 5 were easy, N3 was the first one to contain stuff I didn't know. So I guess that might be a suitable level for me in a year or two. Maybe. I really don't want to overestimate my skills, though.

    I'm currently fixing a Wii for a friend at work. Their child thought that it would be a good idea to put change into the disc drive slot. I guess it's been non-functional for almost 8 months now. That parents is why you keep your electronics out of reach of your kids.

    Anyway, the kid was only trying to help their parents save up money for the new Wii-U this Christmas.
    I guess change isn't the worst thing that could have gone in.

    My problem too, really. When I actually sit down to play a game I still really enjoy it, but I so rarely do~

    Or at all. I mean low e-bay listings happen, but you have to figure fees as well. If it completes for $50 with shipping they are out the shipping, then paypal eats around 3% and then you pay e-bay fees on it later for the full amount. So $50 shipped is maybe netting them $35.

    I only know about you, me and Quiji. Clearly I need to pay more attention to other members.

    Yeah, Google Translate is good for fixed expression like that. For everything else, though... it crashes and burns.

    I've been meaning to start a couple games for awhile now, but an NCAA football game is in the slim PS3.

    I sat the old sankyuu (same as current N4) in 2007-ish, and my Japanese then was nowhere near then as good as yours is now. Still got something like 90%. I'd like to say that you could pass N2 in a couple of years, as I really don't think your Japanese will be any worse then than mine was when I passed the nikyuu. But it can be difficult to gauge someone's ability from the odd conversation online and the Japanese LPs they've dabbled in. :'D Still, give it consideration. I don't think it's beyond you at all.
