Shiiinjitsu Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 So the NA Edition for Lolipop Chainsaw is about 60 dollars used on eBay or Amazon. It's ridiculous how expensive it is. But I saw that the Japanese version (Premium Edition) is 20 dollars. I know that the Japanese version is censored. But I read online that if you have the Premium Edition, it bypasses the censorship. Can anyone confirm that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntingFever Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 AFAIK, the JP version is censored regardless of which release you get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiiinjitsu Posted March 1, 2021 Author Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Ugh, really unfortunate. Thank you for clarifying @HuntingFever Edited March 1, 2021 by Shinjiitsu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternalblue_8 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 They are uninformed. The Japanese regular version is censored, but the premium edition is the uncensored edition that they couldn't display publicly for sales because of its rating. It is a much cheaper alternative to buying the NA version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The base Japanese release is censored, the Premium Edition is UNCENSORED and identical to the US release, PLUS it has a Japanese language option that is not available in the US release. So for anyone who's interested in playing the game, make sure to pick up the Premium Edition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebay, it arrived a few days ago actually. It was a used copy and the premium edition voucher still worked, amazingly!

Zagettrix Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Does the Japanese version have trophies as well? It just comes down to understanding Japanese text in game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was being a smart a** lol Can anyone confirm that the Japanese version has English text? I don’t mind if the audio is Japanese but if I can actually read subtitles and menu options then that would be the best way for me to experience this game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are just freaking out because of the store closure. I suspect a lot of these prices are going to go way down in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar to Persona Arena, Alice Madness Returns or Katamari Forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Mighty_Ducks Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I lucked out and found a mint condition copy of it for $15 at a GameStop. It looked like they just unwrapped it then played the game for like a few minutes hated it and then returned it back to gamestop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s pretty awesome. I was unaware that the PS3 apparently will play the Japanese version in English if that’s the system language. Either way, it’s good news. Thanks!

Eraezr Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Are those DLC costumes in the Premium Edition forever lost to de-listing/code expiry on the PSN store? The two that comes with the code redemption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
