Poke fun all you want but Nintendo uses poo poo screens, m8

One screen yellow-tinted the other's fine, horrible backlight bleeding, poo poo trapped under the screen on brand new devices. These are all common complaints found online going back from the DS Lite and still to today.

The sooner you admit this the sooner you can be miserable, too.

The main draw of a DSTWO for someone with a new 3DS is the ability to play SNES and GBA games, I'd imagine. I want one solely to play All-Stars and Earthbound on the go.

i know this was a couple of days ago but the DStwo doesn't run some SNES games well at all. Earthbound and All-Stars are good but I know Yoshi's Island and SMRPG run like poo poo for example

I've found a guy selling (UK) Link Between Worlds codes on eBay for ~£20 - is there any chance that these aren't legit/have beeen acquired through dishonest means? He seems to have been trading for a while and his feedback is largely positive. Just a little worried that he's Up To No Good somehow.

There's a flash deal for a day for £19.95 for a physical copy here.

Lol @ nintendo for loving up low rez led screens in tyool 2015.

Also lol @ them loving up powder coating and proper assembly cleanup in tyool 2015, poo poo that was nailed during the industrial revolution.

If nintendo was anybody but nintendo, they would be a laughing stock, but the games own and the 3ds is more than the sum of its parts so here we are

I don't think any have "a bunch", more like one or two, and you can find them often enough on your own. Just keep beating high level maps and you'll find new ones, sometimes even from a song rather than the boss. Use the airship to speed through the bullshit maps if needed.

How long after you purchased it did it take to arrive? I'm considering the cityslicker case myself.

Have we had anybody who has had their system transfer fail and lose their old save data? Have we heard any solutions to that save data transfer failure? I hear the old system gets formatted. Asking for a friend.

The solution with something like that is basically always "call Nintendo".

What customer service most likely do is get the NNID linked to the new system, which will restore download rights to anything that was bought on the eShop, but won't preserve save data.

Yeah, it's the save data that's the thing, and even when the system transfer fails it still seems to nuke that, which is a huge problem.

Would copying it to a pc before hand solve that?

You could try playing the Song of Time and starting it again.

Otherwise your friend is probably boned. The Source system does get formatted, so if the saves didn't transfer for some reason, they'll likely be gone. I'm not sure if you can cancel the format if it fails. Didn't someone here post a photo of that situation? I think they said that even though it said it failed, the licenses and saves had transferred. Maybe powering the Source system off will stop the format.

He says he didn't backup because Nintendo's reputation, and I asked him to confirm the formatting worked, but I have yet to hear back on that.

Every time you play against someone in online multiplayer you get their Proficard whether you win or lose, and you can grab whichever quest medley map they've attached to it from the Proficard list. It's by far the easiest way as they often tend to have black shards in 'em and since they've already been cleared the acquired rewards are already visible for you.
