I dbout it, as the games and systems are regonal. I think they have different special codes to destinguish between region, But I of course could be wrong, seeing as I'm not an importer myself.

The DS does not have any regional divisions, so yes, a Japanese game will work on a US console (or vice versa).

The DS and all flavours of Gameboy are not regional. I've imported games before for my UK DS (Animal Crossing and M&L Partners in Time) and they work fine. Others in my office import japanese games for their DS's too.
