Which one do you guys prefer? I have admit that I really like the artwork on most Japanese inserts over the US ones, but I really like how the US inserts show the size of the carts in large print. That really grabs my attention. Like with Metal Slug 3, the Japanese insert has a tiny cart graphic with 708 on it while the US insert has that nice big red & white box. <IMG SRC="smilies/drool.gif" border="0"> Artwise, I say Japanese, but I like to see those large numbers so I'll go with the US inserts...the fact that I can understand the US inserts helps too. <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0">

I have one non-jap cart in my collection and I hate it. I only want Japanese games.

Tough call. I like the Japanese inserts because the cover art covers the entire front of the cartridge. On the other hand, the US inserts look a bit more organized, and the MEG count appears in big red letters, visible from a distance. I like both, period.

That's the thing, for people like me, I enjoy the artwork on the Japanese insert, but can't understand the text. I'll go with US since I can understand what I'm reading and I love the large-print Meg Count boxes. <IMG SRC="smilies/tickled.gif" border="0">

I like to get into the story mode. But considering most Neo Games are fighting games, all you need to know is that there's always at least one character out for revenge and another to prove his fighting abilities. <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0">
It's all the same, just different faces.
