Idolm@ster 2 on PS3

[MissDeidara]

A long time ago. Just buy the "virtual" version.
I'm not sure if they do this for MSP.

I started to think about getting some, as the ps3 version is coming out soon, but will it works on my japanese account, even if my ps3 itself is an american one?

[Rihsa]

It should. At least the reverse is true. I played a Japanese game on an American PS3 with an American account, but bought DLC from a Japanese account.

As long as you go onto the Japanese account to activate the card and spend the money, once you install the DLC you can access it from any profile you have on the PS3. The hard part to getting DLC from another region's PSN store is really just getting the money in your online wallet, rather than using the DLC.

I see, so that way, I can use my Japanese account just to buy the DLC, and then come back to my main account to actually use them. Thank you!

Yeah it'll work! I use my hong kong account on my american ps3 so it's okay!

[Katsuyuki-P]

Uuuu... so tempting, then again, I alreayd have the first version so... maybe I should get both?

    Kami Summer (song): ¥1,800
    Idol School (costume): ¥1,500
    Sailor Swimwear (costume): ¥1,500
    300,000 Money (accessory): ¥450
    600,000 Money (accessory): ¥1,800
    Mail (accessory): ¥300
    Avatar Pack (accessory): ¥300
So that's about  ¥4800 for the song and the costumes. I'm probably not going to get e-mails because I cant read them and the avatar pack is probably cute and all but I'd rather save my money. And who actually buys money for the game, that's cheating.


Oh, that's right! The demo comes out on Thursday right? How much do you think we'll be able to do on it, anyway? I think maybe a few weeks in story mode and only a few things in S4U!

You missed the Miku pack. That's another 1600 yen, and is not listed in that set.

This is required for the World is All Mine/Miku appearance as well as the Miku extra, and from what I'm told, the DLC complete. So in actual fact, you're looking closer to 6000-7000 yen (I think 6400 yen)

The mail is also required, if catalog 1's 360 requirements to complete the catalog are any indication, making it what 6700 yen.

Now, if you don't WANT that horn, you only need what you want, but please add in all the items correctly.

Umm, how exactly do you make a Japanese account? I have been trying and I always get stuck at the part where you have to put in a address.

Could anyone tell me r give me a step by step process on how to make one on a American PS3?

[Setsuna]

You're required to be able to input an actual valid Japanese address.

A lot of people are sneaky, and list Amazon.jp's head office as their address. Just pull it from their site if you really need one (or just google it).

All that matters is that it's valid (or valid enough) to make it past the lookup it does.

And hope like hell that they won't post any mail your way. Bear in mind, you can't attach a credit card to your account for this reason - no card matching up.

I remember posting a completely fake address when I made my Japanese acc.

It was a bunch of numbers similar to "350925820525". That being said, I preordered the PS3 game and the limited edition.

Scratch that, I just checked, and I didn't even input an address at all. Post code, everything is blank. Maybe I made it during a special time? I do remember I had nothing to do with researching any valid address business when it came to making my JP PSN acc.

Fairly sure I used a University or dorm address in Tokyo to bull my way into a Japanese PSN account. I'd seen a couple of people recommending it, or something.

[TweenDoriru]

wow, I missed a ton of stuff.

But, http://japan-codes.com has cheaper codes than Play-Asia or...anywhere else I've seen. If they don't, send them a link with a cheaper price and they'll drop theirs. However, they're like sold out of them 99% of the time, so you might have to e-mail for that, too.

(I buy like everything from Play-Asia, so I'm allowed to vouch against them for a bit, right?) Personally, when I dropped them an e-mail, they told me when they'd be in stock and e-mailed me again when they were in stock. Bought mine, got the code within seconds. Easy~

I know I'm like a grouch at everything, but does anyone else think it's weird that they're like...using the anime to advertise this release of iM@S2? Like the game is based on the anime instead of vice-versa. There's rarely a PS3 thing that doesn't have the anime plastered on it, you know? That being said, any (and all?) anime songs you wanted to see on stage may, in fact, be coming to the PS3 version in a few catalogs.

If it's alright with anyone, could you send or type up a address for me to try out? t would really help me.

Welp I fail. I'm just going to go over into my corner of shaaaaaaaame.
