How to tell Asian PS(2) games from Japanese PS(2) games

[MD]

As I've noticed that a couple of the 'Japanese' games I bought are in fact Asian, here is a simple way to tell if the game you are thinking of selling (or buying) is Asian or Japanese....

On the back of the box a japanese game will have 'For Japan Only' on the back (and on the Disc too) and on the asian game it will have 'For Home use only' (and this will be on the disc too).

There is generally no difference between them, except the Asian version will have more English text and have an extra (or a different) manual with lots of Mandarin / English on it.

I would of thought you would of been too "elite" to make such a mistake tbh

Same goes for CD's btw, incase anyone cares

Well some people sold me games saying they were Japanese.

Anyway I pointed out the CDs say that too.

I meant CD's of the Musical kind
