JRG: Software
Why we don't sell Japanese software
(and our pick of the people who do)
The Wasabi Brothers know that selling software involves more than just getting some inventory and taking orders. You have to be able to provide support -- not just technical support after the purchase but consultation beforehand to make sure the customer gets the product he or she needs.

At this point the Wasabi Brothers are not able to provide the kind of support we feel customers need, but drawing on Mangajin's long years of experience in Japanese computing and dealing with vendors, developers, and resellers, we know the market and can refer you to sources for just about any kind of Japanese software.

See our list of the "Best Japanese Software Sources" below.
