Did I just buy a fucking bootleg?
What little information I can find on "World Edition" 3DS games seems to be split. Most people think they are bootlegs. Some people think they are legit, but have no collectible value.
Are these official Nintendo products? Why is it region-free? Why is the game and packaging in English if it's made for the Saudi Arabia/Malaysia/Singapore market?

There's no such thing, Saudi Arabia/Malaysia/Singapore market uses the same region code as the US, so it will only play in English and in US systems.
Anyone claiming it's region-free and works for JP and EUR as well are selling bootlegs or outright lying.

lmao, muslim version.

So it's legit? Is it true that these games don't have the same collectible value as their NA counterparts?
put it in your 3ds, if a porting of GTA: San Andreas pops up then it's a bootleg

Amazon shipped me an Arabic version of Bloodborne and it uses the PEGI rating system. I don't know why yours is ESRB
Anybody know if the World Edition of Bravely Default is anymore censored than the NA version?
I don't even want to play it if it has been butchered.

There's no collectible value, "World Edition" means absolutely nothing because it's not real, it's most likely just some bullshit marketing term they made up to make it sound special. It's basically just a US game. There's nothing different about it besides that tiny circle on the box art.

the NA version is already butchered
Malaysiafag here.
Those are just repackaged US versions.
I used to prefer ordering the US versions when they came with Club Nintendo codes but CN is dead so nothing to lose getting these instead

Is there any additional censorship?
it's probably just an untranslated game brought to whatever country doesn't speak that language.
>>381123175
Not that I know of. It's basically the US version so it's already censored anyway
>>381120748
If only it had an alternate box art I could imagine it being worth something in the future. Pic related, alternate Mexican box art for NA version

collectible value? u bought it as an investment? if yes, then fuck you
