I wonder if this will appear in the japanese 3ds shop.

Hopefully it will have a demo like SQIV

Now, since the game gives you the option to play through either the original game or the new story, which would be better to play first, (assuming we can carry things over from our first playthroughs into our 2nd/3rd/4th/etc playthrough)?

I don't know much about the new story driven side of the game, but what I do know is that in the original I spent a ton of hours playing through it. And not just that, after I took down the "final" boss, I still kept playing in order to fill up my codex and compendium and I even tried getting each class character to level 70. Assuming we can carry characters, items and such over into a new game+, I think, depending on the length of the story driven part of the game, I'll hit that part first and then rake in the rewards and use them to help me on my 2nd playthrough but into the original game. That way, I have a much easier playthrough hahaha.

Personally, I think I'll play classic mode first. That way, when I go to play through the game again, I'll have more new things to experience in story mode, since the dungeons will already be fully explored and there won't be anything new there.

Play imported version in Classic mode, you're not going to miss anything in Story mode if you can't read jap anyways. Then play the localized version in Story mode ;D

Not everyone has a JAP 3DS, Zeta. ;o

I'm pretty sure a quick online search (or youtube, if you want to see it step by step) will get you to various sites that explain to you how to hack your 3DS regionfree and make it play ROMs from SD-cards as a bonus. I'll get my 3DS somewhere around summer, so I don't know exactly how easy it is or if it works at all. But I'm sure to find out, because the idea of a regionlocked mobile device is just ridiculous.

I've hacked/modified/taken apart nearly every video game console I've ever owned.

That being said, the 3DS hacking scene is nearly nonexistent. This is due to there currently being no 3DS equivalent to the original DS' kryptonite, the R4 flashcart (though you can still use some flashcarts on the 3DS to play only DS games), and the fact that the 3DS has region locking =/

No one on GBAtemp seems to have anything regarding a 3DS softmod to make the 3DS region-free =(
