So basically, if I wanted to play my ps2 [Japan Import] version on a US ps2, I'll just place this into the ps2, then swap it with the Japanese game?

Yes, you put in swapmagic then first the ps2 logo appears then 2nd the swapmagic logo and then 3rd a screen with options. At the third screen open the disk tray without using the eject button (you can do this with a slide card which you can make yourself with an old bankcard for example or buy one online). Then swap the disc for the game and push the disktray back in again without using the eject button use the slide card again to slide a little white pin back in place and use the options in the menu to start your game. There are more detailed tutorials online but this is the gist of it.

Yes. But you have to actually swap it. You have to open the drive with out the system knowing. youtube has useful videos on this.

Yes, after you put the swap magic disc in you will eventually end up at a screen that allows you to switch regions for what game you have. I have never tried because I like to play games I can understand but it has to work if they gave you that option. Go ahead and give it a try, this is a great piece of software. I wish there was a way to make a copy of this thing, there must be. Good luck!

I believe the PS3 is a region free console. So any PS3 game should be able to play on any PS3

This is probably too late of an answer to your question, but the one I got is a region 1 version. So it would depend on which region your ps3 plays. That being said I've never tried using an alternate region disk ex. "Region 2" and saw if it would work or not. It is possible though that they may send a region version for your country since you'd be ordering it there.

Yes this game will work on your ps3. The game will be in japanese though. So if you don't mind using an online guide to understand what the games menus Then i would say get the game.

Yeah Vita is region free. I played it on my US Vita. It's just the DLC you'll have to worry about. If you want that your Vita need to be using a japanese account to use the DLC.

No, this will only work if you have an account on the US playstation store, your physical geographic location does not matter.

This doesn't anything to do with the Vita 2000. It currently only works with a Japanese PSN account and has very limited support with English U.S. releases. U.S. released games currently less than 20 (probably less). I'm hoping for a patch in the coming months to fix that with the U.S. release if not I will be trading this one out for the new one.

It is a different region but it will work with a us playstation. (I bought it for myself) Playstation is not region locked. That is why some people import Japanese games from Asia.com or playasia.com. Enjoy the game, it is great.edit: Jamesphoney is correct. Don't forget about that part. lol

Unfortunately you can't use PS2 games on the PS3. It would be a huge selling point if you could though!

Yes I play it on my American profile of ps3 but if you want to claim your dlc you have to have a japanese psn account if you got other questions you can message me on ps3 (Rosak00)

I am not an expert or anything but i have a US PS3 and it worked fine. Though I would take Note before buying this that you have a HDTV and HDMI Cord because this game can only be played in 1080p.

Yes. The language is Japanese and my copy was shipped from Japan, but I have not had any trouble playing it on my US console.

I have the original PS3, memory card ports and ps2 backwards compatibility and all. It'll work

Yes it can. There are a ton of language options. I live in Sherdan, Wyo and all my games are American. I don't have any complaints about the Japanese import PS Vita. I would have to say in the box, all the paperwork is in Japanese but I'm sure all of the information you need could be found on the Internet, or with technical support through Sony.

Yes. But remember you can use only one PSN account at a time in one PSV. Say now you use your US account on this Vita, and next time you want to switch to your JP account on the same Vita you'll need to reset the PSV first. This won't affect your PSN accounts though.

You can play PS1 games on PS2 slim. It just has to be the correct region. For example PAL games will not work on NTSC systems. only NTSC games would work on NTSC SYSTEMS.
