locked out – post 222

Looks like the DSi will have regional lock out. Boo! One of the things that made the DS so great was that you knew you could import games and they would play with no worries. It was and awesome free for all orgy of games from every corner of the earth all on your DS. Everyone was welcome and no one was turned away. I know I love it, but those days will be over with the DSi. Yup, now everyone has to go home any play only with in their own yards. Suck.

Why is Nintendo doing this? Because of the new extended WiFi functions of the DSi they’re locking it out so they can tailor the WiFi download abilities for each content. Just like they’ve done with the Wii. It makes sense why they’re doing it, but I still don’t like it and makes me kind of not want want one. Now I really have to think about this. I’m sure that with the SD slot someone will make a hack program that will allow you to play other region games. Just look at the PSP and all the hacks it has.

Hmmm… how about you? Still interested in a DSi?
