Yeah okay. I was trying to purchase DLC for a game in the 3DS ($2.50) so I used the "pay with credit card" and just add the necessary funds. But everytime I try doing that, it spits out an error that my expiration date is incorrect. I thought it was just me, but I then I used the card to get something on steam with no problem, and then back on buying DLC still gives me the same error. Is adding needed funds on the DLC menu just bugged or something?

Neddy Seagoon posted:Why cant you just go buy the cards? They work on both the 3DS and WiiU eShops, and the Wii Shop Channel (I think). That would require finding places that sell them! And they would be in BRL, and wouldn't work in the eShop with reasonable prices.

Yeah I had the eShop tell me my zip code was wrong on one of my cards. I just use a different card for eShop purchases now, but still weird/annoying.

Yep, that's what my problem was. I think one of the system updates accidentally messed things up or something at some point, because that exact problem seemed to be fairly common back when it hit me.

The same thing happened to me last night as well, with it telling me my card was expired, but on the Wii U eshop. I'll try changing my region and then changing it back after work tonight I guess.

Hmm, I keep getting errors 005-6510 and 005-6509 when I try to Luigi's Mansion from the eShop. The internet is useless and Nintendo's website says to turn the system off and try again. Any ideas? edit: ughh nevermind, apparently spending $6.50 on something in Fire Emblem and trying again worked for some dumbass reason.

Badly Jester posted:As someone who's honestly wondering how the gently caress they could mess this poo poo up so bad, I would really like an explanation as to how the addition of a single letter in prompted text could have these repercussions. And I'm not saying that just to be a dick; I really would like to know. If they know what they're doing, it's pretty much impossible to gently caress up that way, as anything necessary for change in a localization is either going to be text strings or images with baked-on text. If the person doing it is a lazy piece of poo poo and opens the source code and replaces all instances of "color" with "colour," things can and will go very wrong very fast, as explained in zolthorg's example. In this particular case, that wouldn't cause the types of errors we're seeing. It would either A) Refuse to compile, and therefor never possibly make it to market that way, or B) Compile fine and spit a runtime error that causes the game to crash, which would never be picked up by the dev team because, as we've established, they're pretty bad at playtesting. The assumption I'm making here is that, rather than (or perhaps on top of) this specific kind of general failure, other similar errors were made. For example, the first and last name variables being swapped. As much as people keep wondering how this is possible, without seeing how the game's code is structured, we don't know how simple a mistake that is. It could be the difference between inputting a string as "My name is %secondname %firstname." instead of "My name is %firstname %secondname." Or it could be a case of storing the values in the wrong variables. As others have pointed out, this would all seem correct in the game's native Japanese. Given what we've seen out of this team I'd not be surprised if they, for some reason, started with the Japanese version and attempted to do a paste-job of the NA localization's text prompts on top of it, which would cause this exact issue and potentially cause problems with variable names which would create runtime errors and crashes. Again, I'm absolutely not defending Ghostlight here, just pointing out that these issues are probably simpler in their cause than most people assume.

Capcom Japan just announced a new game called "Gaist Crusher", out "winter 2013" in Japan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJFe7Lp7qpo Aimed at Japanese elementary school children, planned as the start of a big cross-media franchise, blah blah. I'm guessing the rest of the world won't ever see it, so whatever.

I bought some low-cost 3DS games from eShop: * Pix3D: avoid. It's well programmed but otherwise it's a pointless piece of software that should stay on cellphones. Avoid. * Rising Board: nice "infinite runnner" with some freedom, tricks and shop game. * Splash or Crash / Kersploosh / Hyu Stone: it's one of those games where you do time attacks in some set courses choosing different vehicles. Gorgeous graphics. I still need to study Family Tennis a bit more, but even if it looks basic, I think I like its gameplay (it's not too different from Everybody's Tennis). While we are at it: about Code of Princess: if I remember some reviewers criticized it being slow. I think the speed of the game is deliberate, since the levels are small, there are not so many controls/combos available and the structure of the game is based on how fast you solve levels with which characters (and you can replay every mission in campaign mode), so, unless the following levels get longer and longer, it's more a mix between a beat-em-up and a puzzler than a standard scrolling fighting game. It seems a bit low on FPS though. Of course the game is "anime as gently caress" as advertised by the chick in chainmail bikini and by the bard with a keytar. kirbysuperstar posted:I can't wait to play a bugged-the-gently caress-out version of the game in two years time.

With some luck, word gets out about everything Ghostlight has managed to screw up in these last two years and Atlus won't let them license anything else ever again. Then NISA steps in and we get the goods just like the rest of the world does -- on time and properly.

It is interesting how games like Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory are on Australian shelves before it was even released in NA and the Atlus games struggle so make it over.

Cross post from SMT thread, but relavant: If any of you bought into the $29.99 Soul Hackers sale last month, be sure to check your e-mail. Fry's is sending out notices that they are going to cancel orders because it is not in stock yet. All you have to do is respond saying you still want the order. From the email I got back, they apparently have no way to mark things a preorder in their system. Thank goodness I held of on getting a 3DS XL during last week's sale. I'll be sure to preorder the SMT one. Which I'll probably end up playing Pokemon on more than SMT.
