Question about Street Fighter III: Third Strike

[The Ampersand]

I'm thinking about importing this one, and I'd assume that it's pretty import-friendly, but I just thought I'd check before I spend the cash.

I really like the Japanese cover.

Ampersand: The import of SFIII is great for the manual (larger pictures, thicker, full-color), and the actual gameplay, of course, is import-friendly. However, you'll want a FAQ for the extra options and tweaking pages (there's 11 screens of Japanese text right there).

If you'll never use them, that's fine, but it's still fun to mess around from time to time and change things a bit or even make the game play almost exactly like Alpha.

what Mech say, the Japanese and US 3rdStrike are the same. So why pay more for a game that will play and sounds exactly the same
