Latest 3DS update disables region lock bypass

Back in January, a workaround launched that made it possible to bypass the 3DS’ region lock. The “RegionThree” exploit could run so long as users downloaded a file and had access to the Internet.

With today’s new 3DS update, we’re hearing that RegionThree is kaput. It simply doesn’t work if you have the latest firmware. At the moment, its unclear how RegionThree’s creators will proceed.
