Its really simple, the Japanese account is a little bit more difficult. Just remember what all the forms are like when you fill out a U.S. account (just mark that it is in the U.S.) and REMEMBER WHAT EVERYTHING LOOKED LIKE when you do it for the japanese one. Otherwise you will get tripped on the email registration. Caused me like 20 minutes of extra hassle.
Add a Hong Kong one too, as their store is in English and they get a lot of the Japanese stuff.
And, no, the PSN cards are region locked. Occasionally using your credit card will work just fine, and I have heard from numerous people that if you buy one of those pre-paid credit cards you can get even at the grocery store that that will work, if not in Japan at least in Hong Kong, but I believe both.
You can however import Japanese PSN cards or American ones, but that is if you are willing to put up with the hassle.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
