Is it true has Nintendo region locked the Nintendo DSi?
A couple of weeks before the Nintendo DSi launched many sites reported that the Nintendo DSi was region locked, everyone jumped to the worst conclusion that Nintendo had locked down the system and that you would only be able to use Japanese games on a Japanese system, Australian Games on an Australia system etc. That is certainly most not the case- – the Nintendo DSi can play DS games from anywhere in the world in any language.

HOWEVER There are two forms of region control on the console, both of which affect different games.
