It was described as "Region Free" but the booklet and the menu information both described it as "Region 3".  It would not play the professional PAL Region 2 disc I placed in it.  I have returned it.

This product can not play all regions.
It says in the manual that it's only good for region 3.
The description lies.
Not happy.

Exactly as the other review said, the dlc code doesn't work in US. Well, it's region-locked. I don't know whether it works if one formats the vita and signs up a Euro-based account. One more star for efficient shipping anyway.

Be careful! This software crashes if you change your regional settings. The developer knows since 2015, would only need a few minutes to fix it and promised a fix but nothing happens.

Support does not even answer e-mails anymore. So, don't expect support if something does not work!

And be careful if you use a Spanish, French, German, etc. Windows.

I plugged this into a computer running Windows Home Premium and it acted like a standard English-only keyboard. Pressing the special Japanese keys did nothing, even with IME running. I read some stuff online and apparently there is an issue with the way some USB Japanese keyboards are manufactured. The keyboard is manufactured such that Windows recognizes the hardware as a normal English-only keyboard and will treat it as such; changing the keyboard settings in "Control Panel > Region and Language" is not enough.

Here's what I needed to change to get the special Japanese keys working:

First, read this Microsoft Knowlege Base article: "Windows may not use the correct keyboard layout when you connect a USB keyboard to the computer" (/kb/927824)

Open regedit (Start Menu > Search programs and files > type "regedit")

Go to this setting: ''HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SYSTEM / CurrentControlSet / services / i8024prt / Parameters''

Change the values to match this:

LayerDriver JPN REG_SZ kbd106.dll
OverrideKeyboardIdentifier REG_SZ  PCAT_106KEY
OverrideKeyboardSubtype DWORD  2
OverrideKeyboardType DWORD  7

In my case, I only had to remove an ''n'' from "kbd106.dll''.

Now, go to Control Panel > Region and Language > Change keyboards...

Press the ''Add...'' button to add these three keyboards: Japanese / Japanese, Japanese / Microsoft IME, and  English / United States-International. You can probably do another United States one, whatever you use when not using Japanese.

Change the "Default input language'' dropdown to ''Japanese (Japan) - Japanese''

Press OK to save. You should be good to go. To use the keyboard like a Japanese keyboard, toggle the IME by using the Windows IME shortcut: ALT+SHIFT. Once you toggle into the Japanese IME, now the Japanese keys should work (they did for me). The () key (where the tilde key normally is) switches between kana and alphanumeric. ALT+(/ / ) to switch between direct kana input and the Hepburn system. To learn the rest, research online.

----------------------------------------

Following up, several months later. No problems, keyboards still works.

If you are into mechanical keyboards and don't like the feel of rubber domes, don't get this keyboard. The keys are clunky and require you to bang down pretty hard, and it's rather jarring on the fingers.

If you don't know what a rubber dome or Cherry switches are, you can ignore this comment.

I bought this disc from Amazon France. I live in the UK (the same Blueray region as France), but the disc will not play on my multi-region Oppo blue ray player. Instead I get an on-screen instruction that the disc is not compatible with the region of my player (in French, of course). So, wait for the US version to come out: buying this French-sourced disc will probably be pointless - and expensive.

sad story short, this CD is entirely in japanese. i'm a filthy american and i cant do jack squat with it (i own a PC and it didn't work in my stereo either). so unless you're a computer hacking genius and you know how to work this stuff out, buy it. but if you thought you could just pop it in your computer and import it into itunes, you might want to reconsider.

This is SECOND blue so called Japanese version I have received and both were send back. FIrst was clearly defective and did not recognised any of 2 available PS Vita memory card using in US version PS Vita. Second unit arrived with absolutely useless in US 3 prong cord ( see pics). When contacted customer service received standard answer. "You have purchased Japanese version and all what comes with it. " US consumers please do yourself a favor by simply NOT purchasing this Japanese version. Difference in price between US version is practically NONE. It is normal nowadays to have multiple electronics products in families with many kids, and anything made for use for outside of US should not be allowed in US market. Now I will have to go back and still purchased US version anyway, and this Japanese version was waste of time and efforts.

DON'T buy this if you DON'T have a JAPANESE XBOX 360. This game is sadly for Japanese Xbox 360s only. The region code is wrong for American Xbox 360s. If you are a anime fan and just want it to add to your collection, it is awesome! The disk, rulebook, and cover came in perfect condition. Unfortunately, my mother wouldn't let me keep it. ),:

If you are getting this for travel to Japan, don't waste your money.  You won't need any adapter in Japan if you have 2 equal sized prongs. Most hotels there have hair dryers for you to use, by the way.  I wasted my money purchasing this.  I didn't need an adapter in Japan for anything.  The product description was false when it said it would work in Japan.  They don't have 3 prong outlets.

Like the other guy said, this stuff is completely unfaithful to the regions they are trying to emulate. Not bad pieces mind you (hence the 3 star) but their titles are VERY misleading.

This DVD only works in region 2. It was of no use to me and returning is too much trouble.

Was unaware this was a regional DVD and does not play in standard U.S. DVD players. Had to buy a region free DVD player to watch it.

I received these DVD players today and when plugging them in and putting a Mickey Mouse DVD in the player, it displayed an Wrong Region error.  I put 3 other disc in and called the Sylvania to possible troubleshoot for the end result to be the same.  I googled it to see if I could fix it and no possible way it could have been fixed.  I am in the process of sending the units back.  I was hoping to surprise my children with new TV's in the car but now I will have to wait a little while longer and reorder.  Kind of disappointed.
