SCHRÖDINGERS BABY

OH MY LAW THIS IS THE BEST SINCE PEANUT BUTTER
XD

IKR?

I wonder if guys are in a similar state of potential-fatherhood? Hopefully AZ will come up with a follow-up law to cover the male participants of the reproductive process!

In other news..... thinking about going out to pick up a few things at the store ... and check out a couple of shops I never get to visit.... idk yet. :/

@nej: "her legs are like peanut butter: easy to spread."

also, i am proud to be a carrier of the future. my existant-or-non-existant child will carry the Schrödinger moniker with pride. -w-

@bella: no they won't. close-minded republican type people like that always see it as the woman's burden and the woman's fault. rememeber that politican who said the most effective birth control was asprin between the knees or something like that? :\

@pent: pregnant man....lady....WHAT

@arizona:
o kotowari shimasu~~~

@kraus: kickass. i'm always jealous of the japan-exclusive games like that. the us-exclusive games all suck. i wanna play iDOLM@STER. >>;

Unfortunately for my friends in AZ, they're outvoted by all the old people (who vote in way larger numbers than all the other age groups) that decide to retire in Arizona, bringing all their socially conservative ideals and stuff with them.

I know what you mean, there are many Japan region only games that are great (such as the Project Diva games and DJMAX Technica) but they still localize a couple of good ones here. If you want some really good Localized JPN games then you can find them on the PS2 and PS3 since Sony and Nintendo are dominate in JPN and most the their games make it here to the USA.

Importing is also a lovely option when you have a PS2/PS3/PSP/PSVITA/DSLITE because they are all region unlocked unlike the DSi and up. Xbox360 is also NOT region locked but you can only get a handful of good games imported for it like Idolm@ster~

Also, the Miku is inbound on the flight to the west coast (Which should have landed about 6 hours ago) and is heading this way, should get here by Friday~

Um...I heard the PS2 is region locked :\

[Chocofreak13]

really? i've never heard that. :\
i know the wii isn't region locked. how else would the Negima!? fighting game have ended up at my sister's old gamestop? :\

also, didn't you buy a japanese PS1 game from a local game store? honestly, i don't think the playstation has ever been region-locked.

@kraus: thanks for the info. i suppose i should learn japanese first, though. xD

[SleepyD]

Yes, PS1 and PS2 are region locked. My PS1 is modded, and happily, this had the added benefit of unlocking the region lock.

Even if the PS3 was region locked, Japan and the Americas are part of the same region zone for Blu-Rays, so it wouldn't matter anyway.

[Nichi]

Sleepy got it for me, while I was typing.

As a note, Nintendo consoles are always region locked in one way or another. However, region modding systems isn't too hard if you have the know-how; sometimes it's as simple as using a Gameshark or other similar device to get around the lock, like what I do in order to boot Japanese games on my US model PlayStation, or play Rockman X3 on a US model Super NES :3

Pre-order an Ouya, no region lock here!

[Nichi]

@Paul: Let me know if the Ouya is any good :3

[Paul]

I'll tell you as soon as I get it (presumably March) :3

[Bella]

That's a long way off.

I just looked up Ouya.... an Adroid-based game console sounds quite neat. : o

[Paul]

It's as small as a Rubik's cube, has a Tegra3 Quadcore CPU and is completely open! I was one of those crazy techies who backed the project on Kickstarter since I believe this one's gonna deliver!!!

[Dr. Kraus]

I guess my PS2 is modded some how because I can play Japanese games on it

I love how my PSVITA is unlocked for region, I'll get to play Miku either tomorrow the soonest or Monday at the latest, I'm downloading the Demo to pass the time on my JPN account~

The new update has one little feature that pisses me off a tad and that is that the memory cards that people hate so much already will be locked to your account (meaning you can't switch the account on them) when you first use it. Its not that big an issue for me since I have a 4GB card for my JP account and a 8GB card for my US account, but it really sucks for the people with 32GB cards and they can't use them with both accounts...
