I don't understand why you would do that without even knowing what games work. It could be that every game you want to play and complete is BC comptable. In which case, you'll be stuck with a Region A BD player, and NA PS2/1 system.
Reasons:
- It's still cheaper than the PS3 price in €s
- I'm annoyed at Sony for paying more and getting less
- I consume most of my media in English anyway, and I am actually in need of a region 1 DVD player for my fairly large anime collection.
- Importing games from NA is (slightly) cheaper than buying them locally.
- Hurting Sony by buying a PS3 that costs them more and not buying any games for the time being.
But I'm well aware that this is not a rational decision, as I was fully prepared to wait with buying a European PS3 until Fumito Ueda's new game is out (at which point the software emulation will either have been reasonable or abandoned).
