That's just the PAL region.

Also @guitarheroknight, you should update the post saying it will ONLY work for PAL systems, not USA or Japan.

I thought Australia was PAL region as well?

Hm... Fair point there, maybe they work on Aus systems? Or maybe the Aus systems just have a different eShop.

 

[yodamerlin]

Well, I bought it anyway, for two reasons. One, I don't have some of those games and my entire goal is to get as many games on that 3ds as possible. And two, the possibility of more of these in the future, so I can get more games on my 3ds!

 

[Taleweaver]

I was just going to post this. Seems like I'm beaten.

It's a weird game line-up, though. None of the first party line-up, and a mix of wiiu and 3DS. Is it so safe to assume all wiiu owners own a 3DS and vice versa?


Oh, and from the page:

"Nintendo eShop codes can only be redeemed on Nintendo eShop in Europe and South Africa. They will not work on American or Japanese Wii U or Nintendo 3DS devices."

It could've been mentioned more clear (I initially thought it was US only, like last time), but at least it is clear.

Couldn't buy the other one, so bought this , but didn't get the top tier, already have them

Thanks for the tip. I think the Wii U games are worth the $

 

[linuxares]

Oh some of the games looks good and hell, that Wii U needs something more on it.

- Heads up, the bundle does not apply for North America, here is a list of available regions where you can redeem your game codes

Hmm, I just looked at the list, I see Canada and United-States...?

Just looked at that list you mentioned... Is odd, do you get the same message as that when you try to buy?

 

[yodamerlin]

I think that it bases what codes are valid based on location, likely from IP address.

 

[guitarheroknight]

Hmm, I just looked at the list, I see Canada and United-States...?

Yeah, they seem to have messed up with that.

 

[VinsCool]

Yeah, they seem to have messed up with that.

Also, looking at the bundle site, where I pay, there is NO warning about NA region not supported...? WTF

Yeah, but you can clearly see on the picture above that it says that American and Japanese consoles are not supported

 

[yodamerlin]

Yeah, but you can clearly see on the picture above that it says that American and Japanese consoles are not supported

Or is it basing what codes are valid for a buyer based on location?
