Not so long ago, Nintendo has announced that 3DS Taiwan version will have regional lockout from Japan. It means buying 3DS which is authority of Taiwan can only play the game which is also authority.
Damn it. There's far fewer resource, either games or services than Japan or USA.
If anyone who has bought 3DS(Japan) already wants to play game which is Chinese has to buy 3DS of Taiwan version.
Woe, poor Taiwan...
To be honest, Nintendo is always much more enclosed than others, it's no problems when they have such repository (well-known characters, interesting game designs, not many hardware competitors),
but the portable game market has been decreasing since 2010 because of the ''apps'' from smartphone and tablet, moreover, it lost $461.2 million in fiscal 2011, how terrible.
New hardware wii U will be sold soon, though, the blight of market and U isn't better than PS3/360 are still keep Nintendo pain in the ass.
It will(must) change their policy and strategy or they would fall from the dominant position in the end.
