    JP Xbox titles for a JP 360 owner

    As the title suggests, I have an NTSC-J 360 and since playing Ninja Gaiden Sigma on the PS3 today, I've been thinking about older Xbox games that would be worth picking up since I never really bothered with the original Xbox.

    So, I'm looking for some recommendations, the criteria being that they have to be Japanese (anyone know any good retailers to buy NTSC-J Xbox games?) or region free and be backwards compatible with the 360.

    Thanks

        Excellent mate. Thanks a lot.

        Anyone know if there's a list of games that will work with a 360?

        FWIW, at the minute I'm mainly interested in Zan Kabuki, Rent a Hero, Jet Set Radio Future, Murakumo, Doom 3 (if it got a JP release), House of the Dead 3 and Otogi.

          http://www.xbox.com/ja-JP/games/back...ygameslist.htm says yes to Zan Kabuki, Rent a Hero, Jet Set Radio Future and no to the others (unless I'm missing something). PDO is also backwards compatible, but the Japanese BC is, frankly, ****.

            I dont think it works on the 360, but its NTSC U/J only game thats actually quite fun.

            Phantom Dust

              The latest update made Phantom Dust compatible, according to the official site.

                Do we know if Phantom Dust works over VGA?

                  Assuming the emulation for Japan is the same as PAL - don't bother. It suffers really badly from slowdown.

                  Strictly OG Xbox only for the time being (can't see them fixing it, actually).

                    No, my JP version played fine on the 360.
