So pri/vp/okes Are we Downloading from the e-store, buying online, or waiting outside Gamestop for our copies?

I myself am going to download. I have some blocks free on my SD Card... That being said... what happens if I download it, and later on it gets corrupted or I loose the SD card? Is the purchase saved to my account? Could I get a re-download?

Nintendo doesn't do cloud saves. If you lose your SD card or your data gets corrupted you'll lose everything unless you make a backup.

Purchases are tied to your NNID, which is tied to your system. If you lose your system you can call Nintendo and get your purchases transferred to a new NNID.

I will never understand this. Especially a modern pokemon game.

Unless you have a big SD card, a physical copy is necessary. The game is 3.2 gigabytes.

I pre-ordered the steelbook.
Here in Canada, its 119.99, but for whatever reason it dropped in price by $40 in my order recently, so I'm actually paying less for the steel book than if I had got the two games individually.

I'll probably play the eventual leaked .CIA before this, though.

>>28974796
If you're buying digital copies of anything, you should at least have an 8 GB card. If you only have a 4 GB or less, its only really going to be useful for updates and DLC

Might be the same guy from yesterday that assumes we're all going to sell our games in the future and digital is for the devil due to this.

I don't know what to do. I'm tempted to download, but I'd have to nuke my NNID account with Pokemon Yellow and Pokemon Y. I bought the 3DS used from a guy who in turn had bought it from another guy, and when I asked this third guy the password to access his old NNID account, he told me "Ok, what would you give me in return?" Nothing, you fucking jew.
So I'd probably have to wait for a physical copy, but I live in a shithole country and I'd have to wait some weeks.
Oh choices...

Try calling Nintendo support and explaining the situation. They can do a lot of things that aren't listed online.

I'd have to come up with a different story, because Nintendo actually forces you to delete your NNID if you are selling your 3DS.

I was in the same situation. Friend had an old 3ds from his little cousin and sold it to me. I called nintendo and they basically told me they couldn't help since I had no proof.

I don't know about early preorders, but I find that if I preorder 3DS games from Amazon just a few days before release they'll magically knock 20ish% off the price as some kind of Prime benefit.

This has held up for the last several years, but I've never really looked into it.

>buying digital from Nintendo
Fucking never. If they get a more customer friendly platform, like Steam, then yeah, but not what they have now.

Does Amazon charge your card immediately, or only when they ship it out?

The latter I think. I killed my Amazon Prime account when they raised their prices over $40. I use my Boss' and just give her the money. Since I preorder just a couple days before it ships, I've never bothered to look into it.
