Hello everyone,

By viewing my eShop account today, I've found some games that I haven't bought at all that were said as bought and could be installed.

Here they are :

-Mini Mario and Friends - Amiibo
-Lost Reavers "game release notification"
-Wii Sports Club (because of the Wii transfer ???)

I've put tickets before onto the MLC by pointing out some things. I did put one ticket at 0001 (Nintendo)
and another one elsewhere (do not remember, but it beginned as 1...)

I do NOT know at all if this encountered that situation, but if this situation concludes as legit, i may have found how to.

Let me know what do you think !
Thanks and cordially.

EDIT: Big N might be linking some games to people without User's permission. Theory 1

- Free
- Free
- Also free
Those are free, it's normal. They get automatically linked to your eShop account.

Even when I haven't known about them and haven't installed them once ?

And why would they link games that I haven't saw or even downloaded once ?

Mhm. They get linked when you leave Automatical Downloads.

Oh, so that's why... The hell Automatic downloads does when I'm playing xDDD

this is normal. I had the same thing happen with crunchy roll which is also free.

Had Napster, Netflix and Amazon Instant Video O.o

P.S = Amazon Instant Video is only available in the USA and I have an European console ...

I had this happen with Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training... on an account I had just made. This year.

Europe had that game free in 2014. I forgot how u could get it, but it was free for a time. it's no longer free though, so u must've done whatever it was to get it free. it will remain free permanently for u.

I don't think you read my post. This was on a Wii U that had never downloaded it, on an account I had just made, this year. Last time I checked, this year was 2017, not 2014.

Still, Nintendo links games like that without User permission, or even saying it. When that's nice in one way, it's not that useful in another.

Same thing had happened to me; I'm not complaining. Gift horse in the mouth, y'know?

LOL!

"Something happened that I don't understand! It must be a new exploit! Quick, what's a good name... 'tickethax' yes! That's it!"

I said I wasn't sure about it.
And at least it is a game/app "link" that happened for everyone.

These games in theory, came preinstalled with system updates, later removed since most of these services got shutdown and got added to day-one Wii U's instantly.

I know that my console isn't a day-one though. (unless the website I bought it didn't told me..) Mine is a 32Gb MK8 Premium console.

Okay okay, so the theory is that Nintendo might play Santa Claus and give in a random way to people some games or applications depending on their region/place and depending of the age of the person.

(being 18, Nintendo thought that Netflix and chill would be a good option.)
