So I want a white New 3DS XL but am in the US

[Querjek]

Can I buy a Japanese one and use it here on the US Nintendo network?

3ds's are all region-locked, though, supposedly, nintendo is considering dropping that.

There was an article on IGN about Nintendo reconsidering the region lock business. I remember reading it but I will not hold my breathe.

It makes no sense with people on the go. I've bought games in foreign airports before region locking.

I want to find a reggie meme about region locking, sadly could not find one.  But he says you'll get region-free when your body is ready.

I won't hold my breath either but I would be all over a regular N3DS if true.
