Could anyone advise me if I should wait for the US version or get the Japanese one now? Would I have a langauge problem that would ruin my enjoyment the Japanese one?
Thanks.

If you are like me, you will buy the Japanese version and hope someone puts out a good FAQ to help us through the game.

But you obviously wont enjoy the game as much if you know little Japanese, i have been doing this for years playing Japanese RPGs and have always battled through them, i have loads of games that i trade towards my imports so i dont feel as if i am losing too much money.

When the Japanese version of FFX came out, there was a couple of guys who completely translated every word into English which was of great help....hopefully someone will try this with Zelda.

The only Japanese game that has beaten me was Shenmue.....all the previews and reviews warned against importing this title because things in the story happened at random or changed if you missed something, but there was still a few daft people like myself that went ahead anyway and imported it.

If you dont like running around aimlessly trying to figure out puzzles you had better wait for the US version, if you dont mind reading directions from a game walkthrough you could consider it.

Thanks,
I think you`ve sold it to me. Has anyone used Lik-Sang since they relaunched ? Have they sped things up at all?

I have never had any problems with Lik-Sang...i ordered Biohazard 0 after they relaunched their site....only took 3 days delivery with EMS.
