Lagrange Point?! That better be a space based RPG! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrangian_point
I do enjoy how so very many early Famicom games were just straight up brought to the US early on, with not a single byte altered, because the game was already in English. This would include all those early "arcade style" Nintendo games like Ice Climbers, the earliest accessory games like Duck Hunt and Gyromite (which goes a long way to explaining why the title screens of the two ROB games don't match the box title), and even Super Mario Bros. It's why Devil World's no issue. It's also why I had not a single problem playing Stack Up (Robot Block) with an import. It's certainly FAR cheaper than buying a US cartridge. Better yet, the import I got was "complete" with everything in it. The only issue? The colors of the plastic bits and bops for ROB (Robot) didn't quite match, since Japan's version of the robot was a different color.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
