um, you'll be region locked to japanese games... but otherwise should be the same really. was also contemplating that during my holiday in december in japan untill i realised that little detail...

So it will be best not to buy it, as I will have trouble with some games.

Well, isn't Japan NTSC? And SA PAL? So if you buy an NTSC console you won't be able to play any PAL-only games, which are sold in SA retailers.

A Xbox 360 bought in Japan is NTSC-J. Region locked to NTSC-J & Region-Free games.

There is no Free-Loader software or mod-chip to allow you to play other region games.

Local PAL games available at our retailers, would have to be the big titles. For example, Halo Wars is region-free.

Unless you adamant to play imported Japan released games, like RPG's in its native Japanese ... then I don't see the point.

OFF-TOPIC: I have a NTSC-J Wii console. It was dirt cheap. Menus are in Japanese but I'm a collector so something uncommon is what I always look to get
