The Yaroze can play games with the anti-chip protection with no difficulty whatsoever. Um Jammer Lammy, Dance Dance Revolution, Omega Boost, etc. all worked perfectly. From what I'm given to understand, the chip protection only checks for the *copy protection* being bypassed, not the regional lockout (some companies claim that chips, such as CEX's, which allow imports but not pirates to be played will not trigger the lockout).
