Can someone with a JP 360 account....

..see if Ninja Gaiden Black is available for download? I have been trying to buy it online, but I keep getting a message telling me that it isn't available.

Can you check it out on your actual system, and see if it's in marketplace? I can't access the marketplace from here.

I was able to purchase the Death Smiles theme, but it won't let me get the game. Is it because of region blocking(can it tell where my computer is from), or what?

[evil_ash_xero]

Nevermind...seems as if it falls under "Games On Demand". So, IP blocked.

So, from what I understand the Xbox Originals are region blocked. Well, now they're IP blocked. So, I couldn't download a working U.S. NGB on my JP machine?

Region blocking is so retarded.

[icbluscrn]

would hooking up the 360 to a pc's 2nd lan port work then using some type of proxy server?

Isn't it on the US marketplace? Using US points on it should be cheaper than buying JP.

Originals are IP locked too - you'd just get the "this is not available in your region" message.

That's some pretty crazy region blocking. I simply can't play it on my system, unless I buy the Japanese disc(which I just did).
