Before I start buying all these MVS carts, is there a difference between the US and Japanese versions??
Obviously the text would be Japanese, but what about the other stuff??
Which would be better to buy, the US, or the Jap. version of a game??
Thanks.

The only difference between a Japanese and a US MVS cart is the label on the cartridge, that is all. They will play in whatever language the MVS voard they are plugged into is set to.

So basically what you're saying is that,
If I were to take the label from a Jap. version, and put it on a US cart, nobody, but me, would know??
(They wouldn't be able to tell the difference.)

Thanks for the earlier reply.

Basically, yes....

Recently though, US carts have been coming in Transparent Blue cases, while their Japanese couterparts have shown up in black cases. I had a US Captain Tomaday, and a Japanese one, the Japanese one was in a solid black case, while the US one was in the cool transparent blue case.
