I was reading in the Yakuza 3 thread today and saw this:So here we go.First thing we have to do is create a new user on the XMB. This can be done by going all the way to the left and selecting theicon.Choose a name for this local account, mine is "Japan". After you have done this sign in to the new account and go all the way to the right until you reach thetab of the XMB.You should be looking at a screen like this. Select theoption.We now reach this screen, pretty straight forward at this point since it is all in English. SelectAgain simple stuff here, just selectFrom thedrop-down selectFrom this point forward all of the options will be in Japanese. Enter your birthday and then selectto continue to the Terms of Service.Time to sell your soul to the Japanese, selectto agree to the Terms of Service.The first input box is asking for an email address. I would recommend using a real one just incase you forget your password.Under that is the input box for your password. The yellow text says must contain atleast 6 characters using numbers and letters. Re-enter your password again in the 3rd input box.Check the box if you wish for your password to be saved.The drop-down box is for a Security Question.

Make it anything you want.After you enter a name you will see one of 2 screens.If you get this screen, your user name is available.
