I thought so too. Any gaijin that has ever been to a western video rental shop would (all that I ask, anyway), but it seems as though Tsutaya only SELLS video games, and for an inflated price as well.

I looked at the site, and although my command of written Japanese is atrocious, it looked like they were only selling video games. How does their rental system work? Is there a "brick and mortar" store in Osaka?

So far I have only seen MUSIC for rent, and GAMES for sale. The OPPOSITE of the U.S. I am afraid you are going to have to buy your games, but most used shops guarantee their products, and the prices are very nice.
