Japanese store descriptions

[fixie rider]

I posted this in iPhone Programming section, but maybe it should go here.

None of my descriptions have showed up in the Japan store in Japanese from what I can tell from my iTunes. Does anyone else have this problem? Do I just have a problem viewing them from my iTunes (I'm in US)? I can see others' descriptions in Japanese, but mine are still in English. All of my other localizations work fine. Anyone get it to work fine?

You have to write them in japanese, apple doesn't translate for you.

I did. But they still show up as the English version.

Well, I'm on the train now - I'll check it out when I get home (if one of the other Japan people on the boards hasn't done so already)

I had a look as well and they all show up in english on the Japanese store for me too. I'm going to add a Japanese translation to mine as well, sometime tomorrow, so I will let you know if I run into the same problem

You don't need an account to get on to Japan Appstore. Basically go to yahoo japan, click music then click any music and voila. Or just click Change to Japan App Store for those who can't do above. Click Home Icon then App Store link. To return to US store just log back into your account. You can see your app reviews, top 100, etc.

Easy to create an account without credit card or itunes japan gift card. Just create an account with real city and zip code, fake everything else (name, etc.) and your golden. Useful to download some free Japan only app store apps.

Ones I like are (don't click till after you have changed store to Japan) Yahoo Maps 地図 Yahoo Maps, Yahoo Movies 英語
Mixi one sucks, Hot Pepper ハットペッパー is what Urbanspoon should aspire to be like.
