Gaming Pokemon.X.3DS-CONTRAST and Pokemon.Y.3DS-CONTRAST

[Thirty3Three]

The game appears in any region 3DS' menu but it'll only boot on a 3DS which is the same region the game is.

This^

 

[Yepi69]

May I correct both of you for one second?

The system is region-locked. Not the games.

Aaaaaand continue c;

Exactly, so the stupid question about region free was pointless.

It's almost always the games that are region locked.

I always thought that the region of a game should match that of your 3DS,but it seems to be not true,if you google,there are people who tried inserting a pokemon cartridge acquired in a different region,and it wouldn't let them play,despite the game being supposedly "region free".

what was in the nfo was wrong, the game is not region free. the game was released in all the regions on the same day, contained all the languages, but it is not region free. that is all there is to it right? unless there is more to this then i think?

 

[Sandvich1]

I give it a few works, then I'm just going to cave and buy it.

The game was region free, the update partition wasn't.

You know i used to give a rats about pirating a while back...
But lately... I just begin to think the lack of piracy on the Nintendo 3DS has actually helped us get games we wouldn't normally be getting.
Companies acknowledge the need to localize titles because of the region lock.
So really... I care less about piracy and actually support the companies as they actually care about localization a heck of a lot more now.

ooh ok thanks
so even if your 3ds is up to date for the game, the region for the update file is still checked? interesting

 

[tHciNc]

Yes, the rom itself can be region free, but the update partition is regional and thats the region the cartridge will run in,
"Either intentionally a region lock mechanism or not, the function which checks the game card update partition returns an error when it is detected the update is for a region other than the 3DS's region"
probably easiest for a game like this, just 1 version of the rom, with the multiple different region 6.1 updates

 

[detroitwillfall]

so no emulator 3ds or not, will run this even with a downloaded rom(contrast x and y)??? what do you have to have to play this?>

A 3DS, 3DS XL or 2DS and a legit game. THERE IS NO WAY TO PLAY THESE ROMS. And there are no emulators around either.

 

[Sandvich1]

THERE IS NO WAY TO PLAY THESE ROMS.

For now...

 

[Xexyz]

For now...

Wait 6-9 years for an emulator! or buy 3DS and Pokémon X/Y now.
