You have to buy the Japanese version. XBox games are region encoded.

You can get your xbox modded, which would probably be the best option if you want to play any other region`s games.

Not all Xbox games are region coded. Some will play on any console worldwide. Search the Web to see if the games you want to play will work on your console.
But a Japanese Xbox? Isn't that pointless?
Unless you're into those kinds of games...

If you mod your Xbox, won't it screw up your ability to use Xbox Live? Might not be an issue for you if you don't use it.

the 'better' mod's come with a switch, to activate the mod. If you want to use Xbox live you deactivate the mod chip before starting up the console.
