Hi guys,
Sorry if this is in the wrong place. I have contacted both NOA and Nintendo in Europe, waiting for a response.
I am from the US, but I am currently in Spain. I picked up a stander N3DS, and it won't let me add funds to my account to buy games (I know they are in Euros, but I have read that using a VISA card from anywhere should work...hence why many people imported the N3DS when it first came out in Japan.) Anyway, has anyone else experienced this? It recognizes my card, it simply says that I cannot use the card for the eShop. I am able to withdraw Euros here in Spain with my card, so I know that my bank account isn't blocked.
Sorry for the odd question. I know that the systems are region locked for cartridges, but not for the eShop. I am simply confused, that's all. Thanks in advance!
