I'd understand if it was only for games that haven't been released anywhere yet, but I find it weird that the site blocks you from adding games that haven't come out in your region yet. What are you supposed to do if you own import games? Yesterday I was on the Uk gamespot using the "add to collection" option which worked fine for most of games I had, but with some of my Ds & psp ones I got the message "Not available to add to collection". To add those games I was forced to switch to the US version of the site, but I think it'd be more helpful to just allow games on those two consoles to be added normally since the games are usually region-free. Also I found it odd that it wouldn't let me add the PS2 game called "Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia" which was released in Europe...(even if it was mostly limited to Italy!)

I believe that this has been brought up before. Hopefully it will get resolved soon
