Might I ask why it would matter if a hand held is region locked?
Hearing about it [importing games] frequently, and putting aside the wider selection of titles and localization issues, I hardly see the point of it.
oh boy i'm gonna buy Jump Ultimate Stars from playasia.com because it is a good game and has all of my favorite animes in it!!! I am fluent in japanese so there is no language barrier for me!!
oh boy it has finally arrived oh WELP MY AMERICAN DS WON'T ACCEPT THIS NIPPONESE CARTRIDGE I JUST LOST FIFTY BUCKS
i wonder WHY does region lock STILL EXIST. It serves zero purpose, specially in such a globalized world. Zero. It's only there just to alienate gamers who want to play some good games that don't get american/european versions or whatever because they're not popular enough or wouldn't "appeal to those audiences". Either that or to incentive players to pirate their fucking consoles.
