Newcomer’s Guide to Importing and Using Japanese Games as Practice (Updated!)

April 5, 2014 by Chikorita157 2 Comments

Of course, the Playstation Vita made that all possible when I got one on my birthday. Since I have played with it for almost five months, I want to share my experiences. (Image Source)
