How to change language locale to Japanese?

As title says I'd like to run some games/apps using the JP locale. On arch I'd have used LANG="ja_JP.UTF8" wine game.exe but I don't have a clue on how to do the same on Mac

Hi there,

Probably the easiest way to do this is by setting some registry keys for the bottles you want run with a different locale.

For the bottle in question, click "Run command" then type in "regedit" to open the Registry Editor. You'll need to set these two keys to use the JP locale:

Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine
Name: LC_ALL
Data: ja_JP.UTF8

Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine
Name: LANG
Data: ja_JP.UTF8

Best,
Meredith
