I get why, they just should have let this be known back when the US release went up. I would have ordered the Japanese release if I had known it was going to be missing one of the 3 big selling points of this update.

Yeah, even if it was just minor (and admittedly it will be to most people who didn't have the original), they should really let you know any and all differences up front. I know other people who are having to cancel their pre-orders now and look for the JP version

Tokullectibles was nice enough to understand and cancelled my order. Sadly they sold out of the Japanese version so I had to go with Nin-Nin Games.
