-

Pay with a card the checkout accepts
Many regional checkouts take a foreign card; when they refuse it, a multi-currency card that pays in the local currency usually passes, without a conversion fee eating the saving.
Open a Revolut account Sponsored · Revolut -
Sign up and keep the region
Complete the signup as normal. The regional rate usually stays with the account for as long as you remain subscribed — the VPN is needed at signup, not every day. Full guide, with what can go wrong.
Before you do this: Paying a different region’s price usually breaks the vendor’s terms of service, and some checkouts verify a local billing address. Read the terms before you switch. Catalogues and features can differ by country, so confirm the price on the official checkout first. What breaking the terms means in practice.
The two buttons are affiliate links: if you sign up through them the site earns a commission, at no extra cost to you. They are the only paid links on the page and never affect which country ranks where. Full disclosure.
What Pokémon Scarlet costs a local wallet
Share of one month of GNI per capita, PPP (World Bank)Bars are coloured against the United States: a bar three times the dashed line takes three times the share of a month's income that it takes in the United States. The rank-move integer is the country's rank by income share minus its rank by dollar price — the gap between "cheap" and "affordable". Hours of work spread GNI per capita (PPP) over 2,080 working hours a year.
Where is Pokémon Scarlet cheapest?
Japan at $41.14 (¥6,500), of the 26 countries we hold a Switch Edition price for. The dearest is Colombia at $73.01 — 77% more.
How much does Pokémon Scarlet cost in the United States?
$59.99, which ranks #6 of 26 priced countries. The world median is $67.24.
Can I pay the price in Japan from another country?
Often, yes. Pokémon Scarlet reads your country from your IP address when you sign up, and some checkouts also check the card's country. A VPN connection to Japan and a card the checkout accepts usually get the regional price — the four steps are on this page. It generally breaks the vendor's terms of service, and some services verify a local billing address.
Is it legal to buy Pokémon Scarlet at the Japan price?
Using a VPN is legal in most countries, and paying a vendor's own published price through its own checkout is not a crime anywhere we know of. Breaking its terms of service is a contract matter: the realistic worst case is being asked to move the account back to your real region, or losing it. A few countries restrict VPNs themselves. The longer answer.
Where do these Pokémon Scarlet prices come from?
From the Nintendo eShop and opentherank.com, last read 2026-10-06. Where more than one carries the same country and plan, one figure is selected by a fixed rule — the vendor's own storefront price beats a third-party store listing — and the other is discarded rather than shown. The methodology page writes the rule out in full.
