odinfan: I'd beg to differ. The Japanese would be playing on their consoles, and the minority wouldn't make much of a fuss so they can be ignored. You have to realize they're (Steam and GOG) not that big over there.
How many concurrent Japanese make up the Steam millions?

mqstout: I don't know about the newer consoles, but the PS3 had almost no region locked games (I think it was only one total?). The 360, on the other hand, was totally region locked.
I thought on both consoles it was up to the publishers to determine whether or not to region lock it. Just most chose to on the 360, while most did not on the ps3. IIRC, Mushihimesama Futari, Muchi Muchi Pork/Pink Sweets combo pack, and the european version of Dodonpachi Resurrection are some of the 360 games that aren't region locked while Persona 4 Arena is the region locked PS3 game you're thinking of.
