1. Does anyone know we have to have a japanese credit card? Or can I just use any credit cards that I have?

Thanks!

2. You can use your normal card.

3. It didn't work for me. A lot of credit cards will not allow the charges to go through, period. I tried everything I had, and had no luck.

For the record, BoA stuff won't work.

5. For those having trouble, try "filling" your PS3 wallet directly through the PS3 instead of through the Sony store. That workaround works for many.

6. You need to add funds via your account managment, not the store. You also need to do small chunks in the HK store. try 40 at a time, or 400, I forget- just what the default is. You can do this 4 times, and will get enough for Tekken.

I love how I am paying for this stuff, but in r-type on the PSP it warns that I am breaking the law if I am outside Japan. Give me a break. They are lucky I am willing to pay and not just hack the psp and dump all the games I already own.

BTW- Tekken is way worth it. I would have paid full price if it had online...

8. How can you add funds if your billing address is in usa and they have it locked in for hong kong? How did you guys do it?

9. No matter what I do, card isn't accepted, and I think this is partly because the adress doesn't correspond to the card. But still, I'm repeating myself, I did a totally fake one on the US store, everything went smooth. HK and Japan ones just don't accept my VISA. First I thought an asian visa was needed, but if you guys can go through it, why can't I? and I'm doing this from "account managment" and not through the store...

10. Yeah, I tried entering info from both the store and the account area with no luck. It asks for my mailing address and I can not change the country.

11. Same here. I've tried everything and no luck. There's just no possible way for me to add funds without being able to change the billing address. I even contacted my bank to ask if this could work and they said the street address, city and in my case the province was required for every credit card transaction made. So if you live in Canada, you're likely never going to be able to do this.

12. yeah i did this a long time ago,
for the japanese and hong kong stores.

i didn;t enter my credit card info though because i was only going to use those stores to download the free exclusive content.

But now, i entered my CC info for the hong kong store, and downloaded Tekken 5 :]

the billing address doens't even have to be correct, i just enetered a bogus address, since i don'tlive in hong kong,
and it still worked
:]

good luck.

14. I created my account in hong kong and chose a random city, and filled in all the other information the same as I did in the American account (which works) and tried it but it didn't validate the card correctly. Anyone got this to work in America yet?
