Dam, I think im getting the us mobo. So are the controlls really that bad for RS on a us mobo and is there anything else different?.
You could put one of these in..
Sega ST-V Dual BIOS (two links below)

I was going to explain about the diference between Radiant Silvergun playing US-verses Jap but it sums it up below.(from the link above)
"You want to play Radiant Silvergun with 3 buttons (japanese version) featuring all 7 weapons instead of 3, but you would prefer to play some other games in english language ?
...........................
When I first got Radiant Silvergun I put a US Mobo into my Big Red to try it and it SUCKED..
I totally forgot about it being: (Seriously Dumbed Down Controls in US mode )
Then I went and looked up the info at Hard MVS that RevQuixo provided (thank you Rev)
So I put in the Japanese Mobo and it ROCKED!!!...It's so much better..
I think there is a button-weapons explanation screen that shows up when you start a game when in a Japanese mobo that doesn't show up when the game is in a US mobo.
Though I'd need a verification on that.
.Since then I've never put it in the US mobo again..

Question I have myself:
I have this broken ST-V board lying around..I think it may be a Japanese mobo.
Can the Bios chip be used to make a US mobo Japanese(exchanging the Bios chip back and forth if someone wanted to)Is there any risk to doing that ?
I'm not going to do that but If I sold it to someone could they..
