You know what would solve that problem nicely Atlus? Not putting the english dub/translation on the japanese version.

like whats was pretty much always done in the past. how many people in japan want to hear the english dub of a game that was developed in japan. Thats a pretty niche audience.

Derp

as for the vice versa the majority of americans purchasing would probably want the dub and just buy the US version. People buying the japanese version wouldn't be able to read or hear the story so they wouldn't want it anymore, but it is a fighting game so they'd probbly lose alittle money but not all that much. they are kind of a niche company to begin with.

You know what would also work? Companies in general could also do a better job at releasing localized stuff within an acceptable time frame. Most who want their games do not mind waiting a little longer, but they do start to mind when it takes months for it to even come around (again, the PAL regions are pretty notorious for this). If companies actually did this, there would be little reason to even bother with region locks in the first place. A scenario where everybody would win, pretty much. But only in a perfect world...
