Eh. Wrong. You have it backwards. The majority of games DO work like that. It's the minority that don't.
Regardless, this does not help me one bit when it comes down to Last Blade and Falselei on the handheld. And what of games that only got a release in japan like "Mega Man Battle and Fighters" and "King Of Fighters Battle De Paradise" and about Half of the titles that never made it to the US or UK? Do those games also fall into "the majority that DO"?

It's a valid point - but ultimately what does it matter?? It's an awesome console and even if you can't play half the games in English, the best part of any game is the gameplay! That's what makes the NeoGeo Pocket so bitchin'!

Provided the Japanese games had the translations on the cart. then yes they do. Not every game had all languages built in, but several did.

Faselei and Last Blade were released in the blister packs IIRC. So you can find them with translations.

Yeah, that's about half of the game library that doesn't have a english translation which means half of that software won't yield those results when popped in to a US NGPC, so I stand by what i said.

Yes i am aware of this fact. I just stated before that i had to purchase a UK version of Last Blade as my JPN cart will not provide english text on my US NGPC, thus these two titles are SO expensive compared to their JPN versions which do not translate in English.
