Shooting Love 200X (Xbox 360) - Question

Post by junkeR »

Is this game import friendly? Would I be able to load it up and play it on a NA-Xbox 360?

Nope. The only Japanese shmup region free is Futari.

I can also verify Shooting Love 200X on the 360 is region locked.

Wow, thanks for the info. Did not know that about Futari, either.

I guess I'm halfway curious if it's the other kind of import-friendly, which is to say... does it have English menus?

I've been playing this recently. It's all in Japanese, but it's not difficult to navigate.

I would have though that it would have been mostly English as Trizeal was like that.

Well, I own the game, and I'm saying it's not... so.

You won't understand some of the skill challenges at first, but there's information on this site covering them. I'd still say it's fairly import friendly.

Agreed, and it's a terrific port, imo. I may be forgetting some things because it's been about a year since I played it, but I had a blast with it.

Lost Plante Colonies Edition, Soul Calibur IV and many more are also RF.
But as Bullet says, the only good one is Futari :)

You Sir, is wrong. Ace Combat 6 Japanese version is also region-free.

Edited: ok, I should have read all the new posts before replying, it was already discussed.

I think the point is that Futari is the only Japanese exclusive that's region free. There are plenty of multi-region JPN games which are region free, but I doubt that many people care about them.

It actually surprises me there are other exclusives - I didn't think Futari would be such a big deal if it weren't the only one. My mistake.

Good point was made though - as far as I've heard, it's the only Japanese exclusive game to not be locked to Japanese consoles. Is it really the only one out there?
