Zanyverse Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I can't speak japanese or chinese. Alot of other people can't either. I think it would be a good idea to add a direct link to a game's store page when the title of the game on psnprofiles is in english (borderlands 1, cat quest, etc.) but the psn store game name is in japanese thus resulting in a sherlock holmes-esque quest. I think this would also make it easier to buy games for specific regions Thanks in advance -LLegend_Fox 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkette Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I think truetrophies links regional stacks, so I guess you could use that in the meantime. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that site has exactly what you're looking for. Links for multiple regions, actually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need to speak to search the store Hm... the easier solution would be adding (or keeping? I'm pretty sure Mango purposely removes them ) the Japanese name of the game. That way you could just copy it and search for it on the store. You can also use PSPrices afaik. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuukiyun Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) I looked for "キャットクエスト ps4" [kyatto kuesuto ps4) and got tons of results for the Japanese version. I just realized you said you didn't know Chinese or Japanese, though you still could've put "cat" in Google translate I guess. It should be able to properly translate simple words like that. Edit: I just looked up "キャットps4" and it came with results for Cat Quest. Sorry for the misunderstanding though.

Zanyverse Posted August 16, 2018 Author Share Posted August 16, 2018 Thanks for the japanese transslation of cat quest, found the store link in truetrophies. And yeah I'm from Belgium so there's no real reason to learn it. Thanks for your help anyways. -Fox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this would also make it easier to buy games for specific regions Thanks in advance -LLegend_Fox An easier way is to just use GameFAQS or possibly Renascene (comes up a lot on Google, only helps for Vita games) to find the titleid of the game you're trying to find. In your case of Cat Quest, I'd go to https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ps4/210365-cat-quest/data and find the Japanese region of it, take the titleid, CUSA-10638, and just Google it without the dash, like so: so you automatically get the PSNStore link for the game: https://store.playstation.com/ja-jp/product/JP3347-CUSA10638_00-0000000000000000 But of course, all that has to be done manually, which can take some effort, but maybe the PSNProfiles doesn't do PSNStore linking, because the game might become delisted and the link would give you error?

It's kinda like how we have both "kat" and "poes" in Dutch. One is more commonly used than the other, but they mean the same. ?

It's kinda like how we have both "kat" and "poes" in Dutch. One is more commonly used than the other, but they mean the same. It's not about officialities. Neko is the Japanese translation. Kyatto is the transcription of 'cat'. But if you go on any translator, they are guaranteed to translate cat as neko. Thus, for someone not knowledgable about Japanese, it would be confusing since using the kanji, the game won't be found. Heck, I just tried and Google Translator doesn't even show Kyatto as an option =D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
