so i saw a japanese copy of 3 on ebay a bit ago for cheap and couldnt help myself. 8)
so when i got it in the mail a few days ago, i was shocked to see how much BETTER the box and manual were than the NA version.
check some comparison shots attached and decide for yourself.
Yeah, it's really a nice cover, the game is better too!
I also got one too but it`s never been opened and got the jap`s price on it!:cowboy
Also, got jap`s XL too, have you?
stevie:)
no J XL yet, thinking about getting a mod chip for my psx which is just laying around though
What is different in the game?Quote:

Sometime the A version is faster depending on turbo scraping, and sometimes the j version is faster with the better turning of the Icarus. Also, it has two oval tracks, with superspeed
Those two oval tracks are the ones that are included in Wipeout 3 Special Edition, right? In this version there are a special kind of ship that looks the same for all teams, just different colors. Is it done the same way in the jap version or do you race these two tracks with the ordinary ships?
Are there any more extra tracks included in the jap version? I mean, am I missing any tracks that are not included in Wipeout 3 SE?
Nope, but the physics are better and the game is smoother than 3se. If you had gotten the classic tracks, it would be phenomenal. It would be great if someone could do a track swap from 3se classic tracks to the j version normal tracks.
buying a cheap psone and doing the disc swap is a good alternative to a mod chip.Quote:
