no. the jpn front label is wrote in japanese.

That makes sense, I just thought I'd ask just in case.

They didn't even question the changed battery either.

Did it come back as US or Japan region?

what shop/company you used as middleman?

This was a few years back... I sent a few carts over with the Aussies that were competing @ SBO. One of the guys knew an op which sent them in while they were over there.

Ive not used any of the usual middlemen before but I assume it would just work the same.

Have any of you guys seen this here?

It's from this auction here: http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e107590367

If I got it right, the seller added a socket with an external battery to the cartridge. In the description he says, that this way you can change the battery easily yourself instead of having send it to Capcom.

I have two battery holder mods by meanbean, which I successfully swapped out a couple of months back. I was pretty convinced at least one would die. They're gripped a lot better than that though.

Typically when Asian vendors revive carts to the Asian version, they are NO-CD versions.

No need, the CDs are all the same, no difference between regions. There are actually two SF3.3 CD revisions but they all work for all regions, as far as I know.

A is better

Gotta love those unblockables.

Don't know if I'm just really tired or just daft but...

The CD decides the version A/B whereis A has the unblockables and ofcourse is the desired version (990512)

The cart decides the region and you wanna avoid the USA cause that one has some of moves muted?

Any CD works with any region and you can burn a CD if you would get a version you didn't want with a purchase for example?

Gonna try and get a CPS3 System along with Street Fighter III: Third Strike and Warzard/Red Earth soon enough so need to get my knowledge straight.
