    Yep, not a problem with DS games on a Lite. DSi is different kettle of fish.

    American cartridges work fine on my DSi as well as my Lite. I thought it was just the DSiWare that was region-specific?

    American DS games work on the DS but Wii games don't. DS games are cheaper in the US and some are released earlier than here!

    I think everything currently released was fine, but thought that future releases would have region lock. You may well be right though, it could be DSiWare only.:confused:

    Hmm, you're right, piracy is the solution. Everyone should do it. It's not as if it costs anything to make the games.

    DSi exclusive software will be region locked, DS games are not.
