khilafah Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 Oh that was pretty god damn fast! Nice one! As for the eShop, I think I've stumbled on some very bad news, it appears that foreign credit cards might be blocked. EDIT: Just saw your second post, were you able to use your CC? Or did you buy a card? I hope debit cards are not blocked. Let us know Ike. I will buy some points via digital download if so.

Debug Mode Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 I hope debit cards are not blocked. Let us know Ike. I will buy some points via digital download if so. If you're using a Visa Debit card like I am, there should be no problem. I've used my UK credit card on my Japanese 3DS multiple times. Oh is that so? Sweet! Guess I'll go buy Space Harrier!
-Dem0- Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 Maaaan, I wanna join the importers club too! I think I'll get one in the summer holiday. btw @Ike was you able to stop yourself from buying AC?
Rummy Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 Has anyone else ever had issues with their shoulder buttons? My L button went not too long ago so got it fixed when I was sending in for repair anyway, but now(only had it back a few months) it seems my R button's gone too! Such a pain

-Dem0- Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 Has anyone else ever had issues with their shoulder buttons? I did on my original 3DS, but that's only because It fell out of my coats chest pocket. The button still worked, but it felt more spongy and lost most of it's click. However my XL is totally fine. but now(only had it back a few months) it seems my R button's gone too! Such a pain Well that sucks, had any accidents with your 3DS since it was repaired?

The button still worked, but it felt more spongy and lost most of it's click. However my XL is totally fine. Well that sucks, had any accidents with your 3DS since it was repaired? Nope! Only really played Sticker Star, but then haven't played it so much in the last month or so. I carry it around in my pocket for my steps and streetpass when I remember, but nothing beyond that. No shocks, drops, or anything! The R button seems to make a more audible click than the L button, very rarely actually doing anything. I'll likely finish Sticker Star(which I can get by with not having the R button) then send it back for another repair -.- (it's a regular zelda 3ds though, so maybe it was a thing on original 3ds's?) That happened to me on my old DSi. It's a right PITA Tbh it did eventually happen with my DS phat, but it was getting on to be proper old by then, at least a few years or more. I just opened it and repositioned things myself, seemed to work fine after that. Don't wanna do the same for my 3DS though, they gave me another 12 months warranty with the last repair.
Ike Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 btw @Ike was you able to stop yourself from buying AC? Yeah so far. Seems kinda silly when I can't understand it. Not that it usually stops me. :P It's been answered, but yeah my Credit Card worked fine. Was expecting it not too to be honest. Backup plan was just to buy them from Play Asia since they email you the code. Played some Harmoknight and it's very good. They give you the Pokemon stage very early and it has a massive difficulty spike, considering they only gave you tutorial stages before hand I died a lot. You only get 5 goes of the demo Next I tried Bravely Default, but I didn't get very far, plus it was late anyway. The game looks and sounds amazing. It doesn't quite like the same as 4 Warriors of Light, more realistic maybe, but it keeps the same kinda style. The battle system is cool. You have BP, which by default is 0, but you can use a turn to build them up and then you can attack the same amount of time as the numbe rof BP you have stored in the same turn (so if you have 4 BP, your character attacks 4 times in one turn). If you go into negative BP you have to skip turns so it's a good risk/reward system for possibly doing a lot more damage. The music is excellent as well, sounds very Final Fantasy-ish. You can change jobs in the demo as well, some of them have some great designs. Can't wait for an English release, come on SE! The original Fire Emblem is terrible, also I remembered how bad I am at Space Harrier. :laughing Will check out some more games later.

Debug Mode Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 Oh wow, even though I've had trouble finding just the normal copy of the game, guess what my friend went and found.. Lucky bitch! The only time I wouldn't mind a digital copy of a 3DS game.
-Dem0- Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 That looks better than I thought... And I haven't even seen it right before my eyes! I do like the box for that bundle, very nice.
Grazza Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 I know this is random, but I really fancy a Nintendo Direct.
Lens of Truth Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 I know this is random, but I really fancy a Nintendo Direct. I was thinking the same thing today. Hope we get one before the end of the month at least. This Thursday would do nicely!

canand Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Nintendo Sets US Release Dates for Q1 for 3DS I wish we would get some confirmed Pal dates for some of these games. Why is there some old games on there?
Captain Falcon Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Why is there some old games on there? Most likely eShop releases.
Dcubed Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Why is there some old games on there? They're getting re-released on the eShop.
Debug Mode Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Yup, sort of like how some the first party titles were added a couple of months ago to the eShop in EU & US. Japan recently had Mercenaries added to their eShop.
