    Default Is this a Pirate/Demo?

    I'm going away 7/31 on a long plane trip, and am thinking of buying Jeanne D'Arc for PSP. I found this auction:
    http://cgi.ebay.com/Sony-Import-PSP-...QQcmdZViewItem
    The box says "見本," which apparently means "sample," but I can't find what that might mean anywhere. Is this pirated and that's why it's on there? Is it a demo? Or is it just on there so people don't use that picture on websites.

    PS. I know the game's coming to the US a week later, no need to inform me of that.

    That looks like a random picture grabbed off of the internet to me.

    I'm guessing it's promo box art, like the ones you see here that say "Not For Resale."

    Also, it looks like this is coming out soon anyway:

    That, I believe, is just the NTSC-J region code printed in kanji. Nothing special, really...I believe I have a couple import games (legit, and not demos/samples, btw) with the region code printed that way.
