or i think i am in love with import games?
At first i was not going to ask it here & i thought what the heck and ask you all on here allow me to explain before you answer this question i do have favorite games here in America too as well & i do have favorite American games too as well and i admit some of my favorite games i admit is import games.
As 1 of the examples I'm sure some of you might agree with me is that Japan have some great & fun games and before you ask me only region free games of Japanese games i have so far are Record Of Agarest War & Onechanbara Bikini Samurai Squad for Xbox 360 as 2 of my favorite games and only region free consoles i have so far at the moment is my PSP3000 & PlayStation 4.
& well i thought of asking your advice because i mean what if any import games is in my collection including the ones that i don't have the system for it & what if i love it as 1 or more of my favorite games even though i do have favorite games here in America too as well.
& i do have favorite American games too as well honestly i don't know should i hide this about me from everyone including from my family including my parents,my friends,girls & women because i don't know how will they react to my line up of my entire collection including my other collection including my favorite games.
Another good example is there's a artical online saying about you're a traitor to your country if you're American & if you're playing Japanese games and not playing American games then you'll get why am i asking about hiding this about me and if you want.
I'll gladly include then you'll get why am i asking about hiding my games if any of them is import games anyway I'll leave it here or at least for now thanks for reading,thanks for your understanding & thanks for your answers :).

There's no need to be so insecure about your gaming hobby. You are not a traitor to your country if you play imports. Whoever said that was either trolling or an idiot. Games are games no matter where they come from and a large number of games have never left their home country. I own two Japanese Zelda games cause they are cool to have. Would love to pick up more some day since they tend to have alternate packaging.

I love imports. I'll shout it from the freakin rooftops if I have to. No shame whatsoever.
-
I highly doubt anyone would care unless you're going full weeaboo about it.
-
Wait, a second. This has already been mentioned multiple times that its ok to like whatever you collect.

Superior product, or getting something you cant from one market.

If i already post this question i apologize since i didn't know that or i forgot or if someone else already asked this question i didn't know i apologize since i didn't know that :).

Yes you freak...AMERICA!
Joking, of course.
If it makes you happy, who cares.
-
Seriously? Is this even something that crosses any of your minds? That is matters where the game was made? For my own sake I couldn't care less. I don't feel extra proud playing a swedish game (just because I happen to be swedish). The important part is that you like the games you are collecting and playing, nothing else matters :)

Collecting import games is a lot of fun. Especially if you collect for the sake of collecting and not for playing, otherwise you may be disappointed by the language barrier. I really enjoy collecting for the japanese GBA. The form factor of the boxes are just perfect for collecting as they don't take much space and are nice to look at, plus GBA is still dirt cheap. Who knows what it looks like in another 10 years? ;)

I've imported quite a few games. A bunch of which are RPGs, and I can't read Japanese so that wasn't too bright. But no nothing to be ashamed of.
-
I love import gaming. I study Japanese and being able to see my work pay off by playing a game that never received a translation feels rewarding.
Don't hide it. In fact, be proud of it.

Hi.
I like sports games. I'm the real black sheep of the collecting community. Don't fret about your import game fetish. ;)

Yes, this is way, WAY worse than collecting imports :p
-
I like importing japanese games (Mostly because the don't have a NA counterpart) or because the boxes/cases are sweet or I like the game. Nothing to be ashamed of, really. I brag about my snes/sfc collection to one of my friends occasionally.

A lot of us grew up in the golden age of Japanese games (1983-2000, I'd say), when all the best games were coming from over there.
I've got 911 games logged right now. 106 are imports from other regions (95 JP, 11 EU).
But in total, only 180 games are non-Japanese in origin. Get whatever games you like!
-
Some of the best games made are from Japan, so please don't limit yourself to American games. Enjoy all regions I say.
I was fascinated with Japanese games growing up, so I made it a point to visit Japan as I got older, even dated a Japanese girl too. So take it in and enjoy it - plus gotta love that Onechanbara ;)
