Other Solution: Make friends with a Japanese girl, and let her sneak a few games past.

Typically 6 months or more, after US releases, when they arrive here.  And the price?  Whilst games sell for around US$50 over there, they're usually AU$90 here (~US$83).

Holy poo poo, that's insane. What the hell goes through these people's minds when they're deciding how to translate the price from country to country?

Its called FOREX and i know people who make MILLIONS from buying and selling foreign money due to rising and falling exhchange rates.

and i still don't understand why wee can't have global release dates for anything...i agree it is like a giant sofa king wee todd ed.

talking about a pain...in my country some games cannot ever be seen and if the game is popular and ever reach here the price is ridiculous

Latest Good games around Rs 3000 (116.279 USD)
suckish random games here and there around Rs 2000 (77.5194 USD)

when i bought my psp my choice the game with was like restricted to 5 choices!  if by now i didn't mod my psp then i wouldn't even use my psp anymore.  (it slept for almost 1 year before i modded it! Burning )

i want to go in Japan too =T.T= i want to see they technologies and Japanese also act funny =>.≥ well i watched in a film :P  oh but they also eat bugs! =O_O= that's scary =x.x= i don't know if there are samurais who chase tourist either! ahh! got to be well prepared.  I'll bring my mothers cooking knife.  =^_^= just to be safe!  Peace

I feel sorry for Zinga.

But well I think I remember reading somewhere that Zinga doesn't really play games on his PSP much so it's sorta fine.
