Gaming Do You get ROMs From only "Your" Region?

[Kitomaru]

Nah, I get games from all the regions. We can't let the Japanese get all the fun

Especially games like Jump! Superstars and Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan!

 

[da_head]

i don't care if its american or european. though i obviously can't read japanese, but if there's an eng patch for it, i'll get it.

note: this is all hypothetical because i don't dl roms. none of us do, right?

 

[Sui77]

I don't really care, as long as it's in English. Of course, there's some Japanese games as well, but very few.. mostly some puzzle games or something.

 

[MyauChanDesu]

I get anything~

even "J"'s I can read them anyways as long as they're not full load of kanji's which I have a problem reading.

 

[Taziz]

grap first English release or japan if it has a English included like phoenix wright

 

[Maikel Steneker]

Even my original DS games aren't all European. Most of them are, but I've also got the Japanese Phoenix Wright-trilogy and the American version of Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney.

Normally, I get the European version if I have the choice. If the US version is released a long time before the European I just get that one. I rarely play Japanese games, unless they have an English translation (Phoenix Wright) or if they probably will not be released in the US of Europe anyway (Rhythm Tengoku Gold). That last one is actually a bad example, because Rhythm Heaven will be released next month.

For Wii games, I pick the PAL version unless it takes really long before it will be released. For example, I couldn't wait with Sonic Unleashed. I've also grabbed a Japanese game once, which was Wii Music.

 

[xCuteBunnyx]

I only download import games with English in it. USA or Europe, mostly USA.

 

[opzarnbee]

I like to use the (U) versions.

 

[Depravo]

For new games, I usually get the first English language version to be released whether it be (U) or (E). If a ROM has already been released in both territories I will go for the (E) version.

 

[Lubbo]

Even though i live in Australia i tend to go with (U) American roms instead of (E) europe ones i dont know why i just do

 

[Private|Par]

If it's been released and both versions are out, I get the latest version. This one might have bugfixes or something, especially if there was a massive delay between release of U and E, one too big to just be translation.

I grab the first English version that comes out otherwise.

Hypothetically.

 

[d3co]

Actually I only play E versions. I wait until it's released and play it.. If there is no E version I don't play it..

 

[votethedead]

Nope.
I speak english so USA roms or Eoropean roms, both do the work.
But as an original anime-manga maniac I've played some Japanese-only roms such as:
Bleach The 3rd Phantom
Jump Super Stars
Jump Ultimate Stars (recomended)

One Piece Gear Spirit

[DaRealChrono]

I'm from the US so why should I rip off the Europeans?

I usually would only get (U) releases, it would be just a habit I guess...I would have some (J) games though, such as the Jump games.

All hypothetically speaking of course, or should I say typing?

 

[Satangel]

No, US and EU.
Just the one that is out first

 

[Diosoth]

If the game has a (U) version, I get it to spare myself the multi-language menu select screen seen in most (E) or multi-language titles, yes.

 

[Tozarian]

I usually get whatever is dumped first (U) or (E) and the occasional (J) game that has a translation or doesnt matter about language.

 

[Rand]

My 'region' is Canada so seldom is there going to be a release specific to here. They'll sell the US release here.
Typically I pick up whatever is most convenient be it the US or European release, if one or the other offers a Spanish language option then I'll grab it... just because I'm attempting to learn it.

 

[Ishidori]

Usually i play E release, but all my life i was playing us version and i can read english without big problem so if the US version come out some week before the E release i play the US. Or if an action game where you don't be force to read often for get the plot.

Personally i think play game in your own language is better to understand it, however for those like me, play US version can help you to improv eyour english n_n.
