Is wireless and local play possible between two different region versions?

This is so massively important as a player in Japan with so many international Smash rivals. I might freak out if I am FORCED to buy an entire U.S. setup + game just to play with my friends in America or anywhere else.

This question also refers to "with friends" online play! Same thing!

I don't personally have it, but from what I've heard wireless/local is not region locked.

I could be wrong, but I'm fairly sure I heard it isn't.

I have the same concern as you @Zipzo , I tried the demo with the Japanese demo, it works, but it is still a mystery to the final versions, but the possiblity is high.

If the demo can, fair bet the final version can. I'd be glad to help test if someone with the JP version wants to drive to Raleigh NC.

Can you get a friend code of someone using a different region 3DS and Smash version, and play them online in "with friends"????

He means Local play as wireless, Mario Kart 7 for example is region lock in local, so he wonders if it's the same for smash
Not just local play I'm worried about, also "with friends" cross region online play.

It looks like from the demo picture was posted you can.

Also, are you gonna be streaming any time soon?

It would've been really dumb for them to not allow cross-region local play but still it's a huge relief to hear that you can.

Sorry that this is a little off topic, but does anyone know if For Glory mode is region locked?

You can swap friendcodes between nations. No worries. ^^
I know that obviously but that doesn't mean the U.S. and JP versions of Smash communicate.

A picture of the demo doing local play cross region doesn't prove that you can do "with friends" cross region online.

Good sign.

Well is anyone here able to try it with me ? I have an european 3DS and game.
Yes I'd like to try, PM me your friend code?

I was just able to play in "with friends" with Walfan who has the PAL (European) version! Seems that puts this case to rest!

If you're using a Japanese 3DS in Muricah, will the Japanese 3DS try to connect to the Japanese servers?
I've often wondered about this. I know a Japanese 3DS uses the Japanese eShop when using it abroad, so... hard to say.
