First, the 3DS will indeed be region locked, just like the DSi -- US, Japan, Europe/Australia, and Korea are the known regions.
Second, currently there are "no plans" to release The Last Story in the West, just like how Nintendo apparently plans to sit on Xenoblade forever. Whatever those idiots that thing Westerners don't want RPGs are thinking I don't know, but it's stupid. I know it's not the best selling genre here, but there's certainly enough of a market to sell good games like those.
