wtf is this?

I want to buy some Xbox originals but because you read my LOCALE off my frigging credit card, i get UK contents that i can't use in Japan.
The world is a smaller place these days, people move about believe it or not....

I beta tested a few games - and i pointed this bug out before (PSO -and- PSU both had the self same stupid idea of using CC as locale), and now it's preventing you from taking my never ending flow of Charlie Dollars for games i already own but am too fat and lazy to lean over and put in the drive.

Meanwhile, over at planet Sony, they are able to ignore EVERY SINGLE REGIONING ISSUE GOING. What.... the... hell?

Sort it out, this is stupid - it's all cash going to the publisher etc no matter where they are so WHO REALLY CARES?

Here is the sum outcome of this stupid situation : i would probably have bought 3-4 games no problems each month or so. Now you get ZERO sales because i can't even buy the stuff for my region because i'm too lazy/not motivated to give up SWOS etc to get a Japanese credit card.

Well done on your fantastic business acumen you utter mingefidgets.

That is the sucking balls.  I can think of several ways around it, but none suitably simple for us lazy folks.
