I have been importing games and consoles for a LONG time (early 2000s), so at this point, the only system that is still "region locked" to me is the 3DS since that's the only one I haven't bought a Japanese one of. So I hope Girls Mode 3, the main Japanese 3DS game that I want. A lot of the Japanese only 3DS games I've wanted are either out are coming out now other than that one, so it feels less worth it buy a Japanese console than it used to feel to me.
I actually bought a Japanese Wii U to play Fatal Frame series and such. ^_^;; Don't have a US Wii U but I don't know of any US only games I want. Japanese only text is not an issue for me.
Why the heck do people want Pkmn Green so bad? I've got it and it's not that special at all. Now my Japanese Pkmn Stadium 2? That's more of a feast to look at imo...
