    Wtf is with Japanese controls?!
    O and X have been switched in KHFM and I keep attacking when I should be jumping DX.
    ...And vice versa.
    Are all JP games like this?! >>

    Booo.

    DX That and I can only hope I'm not frying the inside of it by plugging it in without a converter.

    All the Jap KH games are like that. As you play it you'll find out the Japanese layout is far more comfortable than the NTSC/PAL ones. O as attack is a lot more convenient for reaction commands if you're attacking before-hand. ;D

    Yeah, most (if not all) japanese games have O and X switched. I'm more used to this button-style than the normal NTSC/PAL :P

    I miss having O instead of X for stuff. Remember it being in all the Metal Gear Solid games til 4 >.>

    Oh hm. Maybe I'll get used to it then.
    I hope.
    Right now that seems improbable though.

    ...I always remember using X for select.
    But I didn't play videogames that much until around 2006, so.

    I actually started video games because my eye doctor thought it would be good to put a patch on my good eye and to strengthen my lazy eye,wear my glasses and play.

    Some background history.

    First grade was aweeeesome.

    I played some. I still remember playing my old PS1 and Sly Cooper/KH when I first got my PS2.

    I just didn't play a lot. >>

    Oh also I was obsessed with Frogger from the time I was about five to when I was about twelve.
    The 1995 PC version.

    It's actually two; the Namine and Higurashi sig are combined as one image. I need to take one off for the new rule, I keep forgetting ;__;.

    Thanks for reminding me, I'll go do that now.

    EDIT: Yes, but I have an old fat PS2 that I didn't want to take apart, whether it was to install a fliptop or to take the front off for a slide card.
