Nothing to do with you being a mod mate, don't get so edgy about it!
It is everything to do with you choosing a supposedly representative imaginary scenario to exemplify the debate which ignores the whole point of it. If two games are exactly the same as you suggest in your example, then it cannot be the case that one is Japanese and one is English.
Of course, if there are two items that are exactly the same and one is ?1 and the other ?100 then I will buy the ?1 one, and that's the answer you are obviously want people to choose and then to justify your view on.
But if one is Japanese and one is English then they are not exactly the same, and that is the whole of the difference between your view and that of, say, a Japanese game collector. To you there is not really a difference. To them, there is. To try to justify your view by framing the argument in such a way that states that there is no difference is what I mean by trying to slant it in your favour.
