Japanes PSN Offline??

[Riqz85]

Hi guys.
I recently downloaded my free games on my EU psn account. I tried connecting to my JAP psn account but it gives me a message to which i can only press O to cancel in the PSN shop.
Is there somehting i'm doing wrong or are the jap servers still offline?.
I might be able to get a screenshot if someone here can translate it for me.

Here's the message i get:

Japans PSN only went up again on May 30th or so. Meaning the Japan store will probably be down for some time still.

Looks like an IP block, but I am not 100% positive.

[MrHealthy]

Its not. The store simply is not up yet in Japan.

thanks so much for the info.

Can someone confirm that the jap psn store is down because it seems weird that every region's store is up but japans'...

[MrHealthy]

Its not just Japan. Hong Kong and Korea are still down as well. Sony just doesn't seem to care about eastern Asia.

I think it was that at least in Japan Sony hadn't done enough yet to guarentee the security of its users, or something like that. The government was blocking Sony.

That is correct. The Japanese gov't is pretty strict, and needs more confidence that Sony has their security in order. It seems they have been convinced, as the JPN PSN is now online again. The store should be online soon.
