Well I'm gonna get one one in the USA next week and I was wondering, will it be fine to use in the UK or are there any differences which would prevent me using it here? Compatibility or anything like that?

Cheers, people.

Bugger.

I was hoping to get one along with a few games too (particularly Pokemon. Yeah I like the games!).

to the best of my knowledge, ds games don't have that limitation.

[GIB]

I see. That's promising. I'll have to ask over there.

The DS has no region specific lockdowns. You can play a game from anywhere I believe. I know alot of people will pick up japanese releaeses of games and play them on their DS'.

Awesome. Thanks very much.

Another obvious question, I assume, but I'll ask it anyway. When you first buy it is there a specific amount of time you have to charge it for before playing or is it ran on batteries?

Uhm.... you know I don't know....

I found my manual

It takes approximately three hours to recharge the battery

It doesn't list anything for the first time you charge it, so if you want a full charge go with that
