Well its certainly true currently for bmobile (using docomo network) through AEON. It was true through docomo 15 years ago, but I haven't had a contract phone since then as they are a rip off. I would get a bmobile sim from AEON and use it with your old European phone, if you want to upgrade go to expansys.jp and buy your phone from there, you'll save a ton of money over all and you can take the phone back to europe when you finish - most other Japanese phones can't be used abroad.
You really really need your foreign residents card though, so that is your top priority. (NB you must keep your foreign residents card on your at all times - or your passport).
If you want a guide to virtually all challenges you will encounter in Japan (at least initially) you need to urgently get hold of a copy of this handbook, it covers everything and also has the Japanese alongside so you can show it to a Japanese friend or someone as well. It's a great book. http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/4750327417/
