Hardware what makes the 3ds region locked

I don't know I've been wondering for some time I would honestly want to know how it works.

Nintendo makes the 3ds region locked, but honestly you will have better luck searching using these terms "gateway region free"

It works by the inclusion of a special 'racism' microchip. It detects if any of the game code has a funny accent.

Nothing makes the 3DS region locked hardware-wise, it's Nintendo's fancy coded into the software.
