Amazon Japan

If you wish to order from Japan’s Amazon website, you don’t necessarily need to know Japanese. All you have to do is keep an eye out for the orange shopping cart button on the right hand side. If you see it, then it’s in stock! You may want to double-check yen to (your currency here) calculations, and don’t forget that the shipping will be a little on the pricey side since it’s being imported.

Additionally, you can purchase used copies, but keep in mind that they probably aren’t really used. People tend to buy these items and then resell them at higher prices to make a profit. Not only does supporting them hinder the sales of Nintendo, but it may also result in prices much higher than they need to be.

Play-Asia

Play-Asia may or may not have this item in stock. They tend to be slow in restocking certain items, Hyrule Historia included. But, keep checking!

Import Shops

If you can’t find it elsewhere, consider looking for it in an import shop like Kinokuniya. This is where we got our copy! Your best bet is to call them and have them personally check, because they really go out of their way for their customers!

As a last resort, you can find it on eBay for upwards of $100USD. Some are as high as $300+, as if $100 isn’t ridiculous as it is. Remember, buying these used items means you aren’t showing your support for this franchise, so we discourage purchasing it used. The more people do, the harder it will become for the rest of the Zelda community to enjoy this long-awaited treasure.
