DS Lite - Region locked?

[raf182]

Possibly buying a DS next week from the US of A, are games compatiable with all regions or are they specific?

thanks

I've got a Canadian DS, a UK charger, and US, UK & Japanese games.... everything works absolutely fine with each other. No problems with wi-fi or anything like that.

Me and the missus' (has a UK DS) have even had wireless link up's with the various combinations of the region stuff, no problems at all.

most portables are region free, they would be no point in making them region locked. i believe production of the umd films is stopping soon, because they just are not selling well

NO region encoding on the DS

Yes, as far as I know you can play any games from any country on any DS.

I'm starting a DS forum if you're bored, which I predominately hope will be used to arrange WiFi games.
