You're friend must be using some crazy credit card or someother form of payments, cause my Friends and I are all unable to convert our US$ into Yen.

Hmm weird. Maybe cause the card is from Canada? I'll ask him specifically what he did the next time I see him.

Only certain credit cards can be used in Japan.

Had to learn that the hard way when I visited last year. I'm assuming that since the payments would run through a Japanese credit server, it's the same way. Probably need either a card that will allow movable funds in Yen, or a Japanese Credit Card.

Ok wow just spoke with my friend and it seems I misunderstood him, he only downloaded the GTHD demo.

However I did some googling and found a solution for you Matthias, on ebay you can purchase cards that work for the Japanese store. Check this one out:

http://cgi.ebay.com/PS3-Japan-playstati ... dZViewItem

Ebay wrote:

He's selling the 5000 yen card for 59.98 USD. 59.98 USD = 6,319.07 JPY
He's making the equivalent of 12$ USD on that.

cause too expensive to translate code and all that other nonsense they have to do (censoring too i guess) to bring it over here for a game that will only sell to a general base that knows and will play that game, unlike games like DMC where it has a larger fanbase.

oh i wish half those games would come over though.
