out before investing in japanese carts. Any help would be appreceated.

The unit tiself dosent actually have a translator built in, it just displays its menus in either English or Japanese. However some carts do support dual language options, In other words, they play in either Eng' or Jap' depending on which language you have selected.
THIS IS ONLY A VERY FEW GAMES!!!
So dont think that you can buy japanese games and play them in English. They WILL work on your machine, because the NGPC has no region lockout, but they will mostly play in Japanese, with the few exceptions such as Big Bang Pro Wrestling, which supports dual lan'.
Golden rule is!
If your buying a Japanese game and you want to check if it suports Dual lan' Post here and someone will be able to tell you <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
