I'm about to get a 360 very soon but just worrying about the region thinggy. I'm not sure of how the trend of this region lock will be. Can anyone help me out please? Otherwise I might have to import a US console instead

From what I understand, there's a lot of US games that aren't region locked, but not so many Japanese games.

Pretty much every Xbox360 Japanese game is region locked.

If that's the case then it would be a good idea to get Japanese 360 instead isn't it?
Does anyone know the average duration of the release date in US/JP to AUS/NZ?
I don't want to wait half a year like before again
