Any way around local multi-player region lock?

Hi I'm new hear, not sure if I'm putting this in the right place.

A friend and I want to play the MH3U game while I'm on vacation here in the Caribbean. He has the American console with the American game, while I have the European versions, long and behold we could not get the games to recognize each other. Is there any way to work around the local wireless region lock?

Also I should include, we don't have access to a Wii-U.

I just realized that I posted this in the MH4 sub-forum!!

Would it be possible for the Mods to moves this thread to an appropriate location? Sorry for the inconvenience.

Moved to the appropriate section, Since you're new here, I'd like to suggest that there is an edit button, just letting you know as it would save yourself double posting :P

With the WiiU version of the game, you can play in Network mode with the NA/EU servers as they have removed region lock, however with the handhelds, I'm not sure

Ah thanks for the help, I'll try to be a bit more attentive here!
