Home consoles were region locked based on physical barriers in the slots that would block a cartridge from a different region. You could just extract those barriers and the console could play any cartridge from any region, though. Handhelds had been different, though. Up to the DSi, you could buy a handheld cartridge from any country and it would plug in and play no problem.
Oh :c ew
Ya, region locking sucks. My dad got me a foreign copy of triforce heroes after a trip.
Sucked when it wouldn't work :c
And now its a dead game basically
