I don't care.

The games I want I buy right here in Europe anyway. Why buy them anyplace else? I'm not interested in the vast majority of the Japanese exclusives anyway. And like has been said, this is not even a surprise. I think the DS was the only Nintendo console to not be region locked, and it's rare for them not to be in other companies too.

Lol, I never checked, but from some comments here (like Happydolphin's "on gamecube days, pigs flew") I thought Nintendo arrived late to this region lock thing "party"

I do remember the famous 72/96 pins cartridges though... now there's a good region lock, just buy a 9.99 dollar adapter and you're good to go.

Heh, the SNES region lock is even better. Just make differently shaped cartridges!

That's it!
