I suppose you may as well. Although you may end up finding out that there is something big you are missing to due to language barrier. I know it is a racing game, but so was DKR and that had a story and people asked you to do things for them, now I know Mario Kart doesn't have something like that but if it did I wouldn't reccomend buying it. As it is though, yes Inwould buy it Dr Claw.

It would depend on the volume of japanese text in the game, if it was only on, say the main menu, then i would probably buy it.

If you could use it multiplayer with English versions, probably yes.

But as other people say, it depends of the amount of Jap text.

I've got an import of GTAdvance, but it's 99% english so it's not really a problem.

Would I buy the Japenese version.... er no.

If your that desperate to get games earlier get them imported from America

Or you could simply learn Japenese which is difficult if your still at school, you just have no time.
