Nintendo Switch software won’t be region locked
Nintendo has always been aggressive with region locking, but that’s changing with the Switch. That’s right, the Switch will be able to play games from any territory. Meaning, importing games from Japan and playing them on your US-based console will be totally doable — no need to buy a region-specific hardware for those anymore. Nor will you have to wait for a certain game to get translated to English. Hey, alright!
Nintendo will not apply region-locking to #NintendoSwitch software.
