C'mon. We're a better community than that here on VGCollect. :)

The answer to the question is no.

The Sega Master System is not region locked.

You can play all region SMS games on any region console without problems.

You can also play them on the Retron 5 or Sega Genesis if you get a Power Base Mini from: www.stoneagegamer.com.

Soera, correct me if I'm talking crap. :)

You can't play japanese SMS games, unless mod.
foxhack:
Well, PAL games will run faster because of the difference in refresh rates, and I think I remember reading that one or two games simply will not work on NTSC systems. I can't find a proper list for that, sorry.
soera:
Japanese/Taiwanese games will not play on the system. They simply do not fit. NTSC, EU, PAL, Brazilian, and Australian games will all fit/play.

I have heard that there are a few games that will not fire up but so far, I have not found one.
