Nintendo DSi

That's only partially correct... DSi specific games *will* be region locked. I'm assuming the original DS games will remain region free.

Games specifically for the DSI are supposedly going to be region locked.

So if i go buy a JP DSi, I won't be able to play US DSi games when they are released unless I buy a new system?
now that defeats the purpose of buying one early.... good thing I didn't already buy one and waited for a response first lol

Wait a minute, DSi games won't be able to be played on the DS? What a bunch of fuckers. . .

Ordering a DSi outside of Japan nets you an extra $100 charge btw.

If it wasn't region locked I'd easily pay 100$ extra to have it 4-6+ months before the US

The day their handhelds stop making money, then probably. lol

I dont think the DSi is going to do nearly as well as the regular DS did.
