Yes...the Nintendo DS is region free. You can play Japanese, British, etc on an American DS. The only difference is the power adapter that you need to charge the DS.

Yes, they will work.

However you'll have to overcome the language barrier. Buy with caution.

I think the title is referring to countries, as 'American' isn't a language.

However...there are games available over in Europe that have been released that will never make the light of day in the US. It is the same way with Japan.
