Thanks for the info about how most Europeans can read English, the stuff about subbed English shows, and the suggestions for labeling and listing the Game Cases. I didn't know they taught English in most grade schools, over there. The current setup, on my site, is to show five thumbnails for each product, that are click-able, so you can see larger photos. At least one of them will show actual carts in actual cases; that should help. I also have plain-text Region Info in brackets, in the Title Area, of some of the Game Case's Tables, like (USA/CAN/MEX) and (EU/JP). I need to tweak that a bit. I like the idea about showing Cart Shapes, and have non-compatible ones circled and a / through it. I could add a row of small cart-shaped icons to each Game Case's Table, to accomplish that. ;) I'm a big fan of visual-aid, and love websites where you can tell, at a glance, what products are compatible with what stuff. |

And thanks to internet there is also incentive to learn it nowadays. When I was wee lad the level of interest in learning varied strongly, but noways almost everybody here speaks (or at least types) it. |

Our generation that has grown with the internet and all kinds of (subbed) TV shows, movies and games is pretty fluent with english. Not like those silly countries who dub everything. |

And even around my nephew who hasn't yet started studying Englis we have to be bit careful in what we talk around him (again thanks to Youtube he has picked quite a big vocabulary). |
