Sorry i'm noob here. Plan to get a DSi but I don't know what version to get. I mean which region to get is best.
Any1 can guide me?
Japan --- black , white , pink , lime green , metallic blue , glossy red
North America --- black , white , pink , light blue
Europe --- black , white , light blue , metallic blue , glossy red
Australasia --- black , white , pink , metallic blue
The DSi is currently available in seven colors; only the matte black and white models are available in all regions. The lime green color is only available in Japan,and pink is available in Japan, North America and Australasia.The metallic blue color is available in Australasia, Japan and Europe.European countries also received light blue and red on October 23, 2009.
There are numerous special edition models available, including the Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time models and more !
Similarities:
-ALL the DSI can play DS games (no region locked)
-ALL the DSI can connect and play multiplayer wirelessly
-ALL the DSI is the same except the difference written below.
Difference:
-DSI shop is region locked(it means that a Japan DSI can only connect to Japan DSI shop,Europe DSI can only connect to Europe DSI shop.)So there is only 4 different DSI shop existed all with different downloadable content.
-DSIWARE games released are different by region(eg.if megaman 10 is released in JAPAN DSI shop,there is no way other region DSI can get this game until this game is released in their respective DSI shop.)
-Region DSI is different in language.(Japan DSI all in japanese,Europe DSI available in 5 europe main language,NA DSI available in english,spanish,french)
-DSIWARE games downloaded from DSI shop is different in language as well.(DSIWARE GAMES in japan DSI are all in japanese,NA DSIWARE games are all in english.)
