I'm not sure why region locking can't just die.  It mainly serves to piss people off and encourage piracy.

Amen!

I won't pirate games, but the region lock really Pisses me off. I planned to import that Star Wars game from the US. >:(

I can understand region-locking for games you actually intend to release in all regions (that way one region can't leech sales off another, which would, say, hurt NoA's numbers or NoE's numbers in the long run), but you only hurt yourself as far as games you never intend to release outside Japan. If only locking could be applied on a game-by-game basis, then its utility could be optimized while not discouraging sales of region-exclusive games or encouraging homebrew
