143436611Xxcc 1,105 Posted March 13, 2013 Hey, so I was wondering... While I was looking at some pictures of the box of the game, I noticed it said and I quote "FOR JAPAN ONLY" now I'm no expert, but I am slightly concerned for those importers who paid $100+. I mean, it's there for a reason... And we know it's getting localized, so what's the deal? And just to note that I checked on my KH2FM and it also says "FOR JAPAN ONLY" plus KH2FM is region blocked.. SOOO what are your thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weiss 8,279 Posted March 13, 2013 That means it's made for japan. The ps3 is region free though so it'll play it. We'll get an international version anyway so it doesn't really matter much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaneki Ken 1,516 Posted March 13, 2013 (edited) Knowing the staff and youtubers of KH13, they will import the game so we can see the KHHD goodies. I don't see any use for this since international release is confirmed. Edited March 13, 2013 by Xamtweth-ReMIXed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted March 13, 2013 Yes, we'll have all the cutscenes from all the games and complete playthroughs for KHFM and Re:CoM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oishii 3,987 Posted March 13, 2013 $100? Play-Asia was only charging about $75 with free shipping. KH2FM is region locked because the PS2 is region locked. The PS3 is region locked, however most PS3 games are region free. The free shipping is two weeks with no tracking. To get the 1-3 shipping it's over $15 which puts the price in the $90's range. This is why I switched my order to NipponYasan. They're selling it for $61 so with the fastest shipping it comes to $75 1 143436611Xxcc reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geralt 4,874 Posted March 13, 2013 Not playable? I think it's impossible for them to put region-coding so it's only playable in one country >_> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

143436611Xxcc 1,105 Posted March 13, 2013 You almost scared me bro well I bought my copy from Nin-Nin im doing a walkthrough all cutscenes and etc in HD. Well dude there's still a possibility that it's region locked... Then again the "FOR JAPAN ONLY" may nod at sale wise... And if it turns out it's not locked (which it shouldn't) then I hope you post the days movie ASAP! LolYes, we'll have all the cutscenes from all the games and complete playthroughs for KHFM and Re:CoM.And the Days scenes? (⌒▽⌒) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weiss 8,279 Posted March 13, 2013 I will do so. Could you share where you're uploading them at and if it's on youtube what channel, if I may ask? We'll be doing the 358/2 Days cutscenes first. Please look forward to it. Definitely looking forward to kh13's coverage of the game! 1 143436611Xxcc reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VisitJoan 2,713 Posted March 13, 2013 (edited) $100? Play-Asia was only charging about $75 with free shipping. KH2FM is region locked because the PS2 is region locked. The PS3 is region locked, however most PS3 games are region free. So do both the game and console have to be region locked for the locking to work?

143436611Xxcc 1,105 Posted March 13, 2013 Through some sort of internet access probably. Nope the game was locked due to high imports from fans, from the fact that they had to wait for the same game (it also had an english dub) So do both the game and console have to be region locked for the locking to work?No. The developer chooses whether or not the game is region locked 1 VisitJoan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indecypher 495 Posted March 13, 2013 I dunno. And I thought that even though the game's could be played, you would get an error message. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reyn 1,755 Posted March 13, 2013 I'm unaffected by this. *You get KH 1.5 for free and it arrives at your doorstep. You try to play it on your PS3 and you get an error message saying that it cannot be played due to it being region blocked* Now you are affected by this. 1 143436611Xxcc reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
