Stop it 
I just finished Digital Devil Saga. Blatantly just a precursor to the 2nd one and I feel somewhat cheated.
Way off topic though.

Wiigion Free
Posted by Calum
Talking to Wired Perrin Kaplan has revealed in what has been an excellent day for Nintendo that the Wii will be region free. This is fantastic news as we expect that there will be a multitude of Japan only releases that will be deemed to be too obscure to see a western release. With Wii, we don't need to worry about this as we can simply import these titles.
Kaplan stated that Publishers can put a region lock on their games if they wish, but Nintendo will not do so. Basically, the third parties can choose to be evil with this or they can play nice. We are holding out for the latter - which does seem to be the most obvious option for the publishers.
| Thats pretty big news in terms of console gaming if it is true.

And this is from someone who has imported obscure Japanese RPG's.
Um, learn Japanese would be my advice  | |

| First time Ive ever seen a console with no region coding before.
Means we can take advantage of lower prices / earlier release dates. It wont matter we are in always left behind europe.
Of course it depends on whether developers want to be nice to us or not.

Handhelds have had it for an age.
Was under the impression the xBox, and maybe the 360 as well? It's the publishers that want region-coding anyway I've always thought.
Besides, for £8 the GC became region-free anyway...
