Purchased in France at the beginning of the year. The package is in French, but the game can be operated entirely in Japanese. Batteries will be included, so you can play immediately upon arrival. Upon startup, you will be presented with a screen to select Japanese language. Used for a short period only. There are very minor scuffs on the back, only visible if you look closely. There are no noticeable scratches or stains, and it is generally clean.
