Was looking for the answer to this earlier and just thought 'try it and see'
North American XBLA game working fine on my PAL console without any patching. I'm on XBR_8955_3.

Anyone tried Japan XBLA game?

When I put it on my hdd it doesn't show up in the games but it does show up in the console settings under memory with Japanese writing.

Am I missing something?


NVM..

I figured out the file I got is only DLC

Stupid me...
