Nintendo recently announced a 3DS region-free title called, Louvre, that will be playable in in North America, Europe, and Australia.
Kotaku reports that Nintendo 3DS Guide: Louvre will be available for digital download and retail and will work across multiple regions instead of being region locked like most games and consoles.
Louvre is not a video game, it is an art museum guide, almost like an app, so it does not have to be rated or broken down like a normal game. This is why it is not region locked, it is supposed to be used all over the world.
"There are many different regions around the world, and each region has its own cultural acceptance and legal restrictions, as well as different age ratings. There are always things that we're required to do in each different region, which may go counter to the idea that players around the world want the freedom to play whatever they want," said Satoru Iwata, Nintendo president, earlier this year.
