First post!

I have a US version of Pokémon White and a Japanese DSi with Unlaunch and Twilight Menu. The cartridge runs in DS mode on the DSi, but runs in DSi mode on amy US 3DS with CFW. This is because the DSi mode region lock I assume...?

Is there a way to force the JP DSi to run the US Game in DSi mode despite the mismatched regions?

Thanks in advance. :)

You need to dump the ROM from the cartridge using GodMode9i, and launch the ROM using TWiLight Menu++, in order to run in DSi mode.
There is no way to launch the cartridge itself in DSi mode outside of Launcher (Unlaunch should already allow it to run out of region cartridges though).
