Ok so I am atempting to buy AC but I do not know wth to do at this point lol.

I am on the sega site, logged in and clicked buy Arks cash, I clicked visa and I am now having to fill out personal info.

They want name and then name in katakana?? address, Zip Code? I live in ontario so I just put my postal code however it says (Numbers)? Does any of this info matter or can I skip this? At the bottom it says register the click button.

What do I do!? lol

I registered for an account at tenso.com. They give you an address that you can use to shop at websites that don't have international shipping, so putting that address isn't technically falsifying info since it is more or less like having a PO box and is a legitimate address.

I used fake info for my name, but I found a legitimate JP address. The old alpha signup guide should have all the info you need.

Lexilogos is your friend.

I'd spell it like this: トレイバ ワイベンガ

try it yourself if you like though (http://www.lexilogos.com/keyboard/katakana.htm)
