Simple question, do you buy foreign games? WHether it's a physical import of a game from Japan or you have foreign eshop/PSN accounts?

I recently discovered the awesomeness of foreign shopping because of how awesome some of the deals are for the eshop in places like Japan and Mexico.

What about you?

I actually have an iTunes account for japanese games, however I forgot the answers to my own security questions, so I can't spend my yen on anything. I can't even find a way to reset the answers, so I can only really download free games like Mini 4WD Hyperspeed Grand Prix.

I don't buy foreign games, but I once wanted to buy the Japanese version of Super Mario 64 for my Wii U. I thought I wanted it so bad back then, but it didn't matter to me after a couple weeks

Importing can be very good in the right circumstances. Such as that it can save you a lot of money, I saw the japanese version of Chrono Trigger for $5 once. So if you really want a game and don't mind being unable to read the thing, then go for it. It's even better if you can read japanese.

I have a few foreign games on my phone from the Japanese and Singapore App Store (gacha games) but in terms of actual console games, nah. I used to have a foreign PSN account for stuff like that but it's been several years now. A Switch Japanese account is pretty useful if you're into that stuff; they have a lot of deals and demos.

Ever since I posted this I went a little crazy on buying foreign games from the Argentina and Mexico eshops. Many Switch games are so much cheaper in Argentina and nearly all games in Mexico are like 10-15% cheaper, so I've been buying a few there each month.

Since the PS4 is region-free, importing can be a nice way to get games cheaper if the price is lower than it is in my home country.

Hopefully I'll get to soon, I've been studying Japanese for awhile. There are some games with English subs, but I haven't really looked into which ones specifically.

taterii : I haven't tried doing it for the PS4 yet, I haven't figured out how to access another PSN like the Japanese one, it seems a lot more complicated than the eshop to me.

No I can say with 99% certainty that I've never bought a foreign game however I have downloaded a foreign demo before when I wanted to try Persona 5 Strikers which was interesting not being able to read the controls or anything.

SonicOlmstead : That's one game that I'm pretty sure everybody went to Japan for in order to play the demo. I didn't even bother with the text when I tried it, I skipped ahead through everything just so I could test out the gameplay and combat.
