Quick... Someone talk me out of buying an AUS New3DS before I destroy my wallet...

I've only seen it on PlayAsia for $235 (including shipping), and that is admittedly an extremely reasonable price - I can't expect to find one for much cheaper. Of course, I'm also not 100% certain it will be on a firmware lower than 9.3, although It's highly likely it will still be on 9.0.

Overall, I'm trying to get pros and cons here. I'm in America, so I have to worry about region restrictions in the future. I don't want this to be an impluse buy, but as far as Gateway compatibility goes, I'm running out of time. :cry:

but food money...

I love the sense of urgency for everyone on this forum to get a N3DS RIGHT NOW, like SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY right now too. Just be patient is my game - GW may be able to get it working on the American 3DS when it hits too. That's a bit of wishful thinking on my part but still, I can't believe the masses flooding to get an AUS or JAP N3DS right now lol.

Also - We're not sure how the new 3DS games are going to operate just yet. I'm sure we can get a ROM dump, but who knows how Nintendo is going to combat them. It could be a long road for GW to get them working for us.

Play something while you wait like Minecraft or Risk of rain or terraria or starbound or dwarf fortress.

Holyshit! You shouldn't be charged customs fees, it should be included in taxes.

Glad we don't have customs fees here in Australia, but seeing as this country loves copying other countries it's probably in their field of view.

Don't worry! That means gay marriage and weed will be legal in the near future! ;D

I have a question;

Can gateway disable region lock for the emuNAND system to allow installs of different region .cia eshop files
and can gateway install emuNAND of a different region? Say Japanese 3DS sysNAND, emuNAND American 3DS

Dayyum. wasn't there an option to "Make as a gift to avoid and fuck the police"?

don't recall seeing that... looked at the ordering page again and they have these options:


* Play-Asia.com branded packaging (standard)
* Neutral packing (no Play-Asia.com Logo visible) Add US$0.5
* Gift Wrapping Add US$2.00

but i don't think these are the "fuck the police" options?

Gift wrapping definitely. Dick in a box.

But srsly, IIRC gift wrapping avoids customs because gifts are good

marked as Gift or Samples will be free of import tax, or if its below a price threshold... in the UK if its under £15 its free from customs tax.. some carriers also charge a handling charge on top if they have to add customs tax and hold it, that's another £12 on top lol.
