Really.
Those shitty swap methods and flip flop covers are a waste of time and fuck up your hardware in the long run. Modchip solutions are expensive, and allow playbacks of bootlegs, and good modchips takes forever to come out in a console's life cycle. Buying a foreign console is suicidalfor your wallet when a new console comes out, and is much more expensive than a mod job.
Sony and Nintendo need to drop that whole insanity. I understand that there's a lot of contractual problems related to it, but for gods sake; look at how the gba is doing well without region locks.
I believe Microsoft kinda gave up when it comes to region encoding.
What do you guys think?
