Help me find some Japanese stuff.

Where can I buy Japanese products (specifically Japanese DS games) in Chicago?

I stumbled upon Mitsuwa Marketplace in Arlington Heights a few years ago and thought it was fantastic. We stopped by today and it seems like all the electronics booths are gone.

Anyone know where I could buy Japanese DS games in Chicago (bricks and mortar, please)? If you know of other interesting Japanese shops, I'd love to know about those as well.

The store inside Mitsuwa that sells DS games moved to it's own location. If you go north on Arlington Heights Rd, you'll come to a Jewel. The store is across from that in a strip mall.

I can't remember the name of the store, but it's near a puppy store.

It's called JP Gift. I haven't been in a year or two, so I don't know if it's still around.
