I have a New 3DS US region with homebrew and luma3ds, is there a safe way to buy games from the Japanese and European eshop stores?

Import games from the region ya want. Download from google. install with fbi. Ya sure cannot use eshop since its locked to one regions locale.
The game I’m seeking I could not get via... unorthodox methods, so I thought to buy it before stores shut down and I figured might as well check the other region stores see if I can snatch some stuff before stores shut down.

Probably not possible at this point since you can't add funds. You should have done it before it partially stopped this year.

You would have needed a 3ds of that region or a virgin 3ds that never went online ever that was modded to the target region.

You cannot access other region stores as it is. So you are outta luck that way.

I still have funds in my account that’s why I thought to do it, I never use credit card or the likes anyway, always used eshop fund cards.

Eshop is almost dead, you must better buy only phisical games, because as the others told you, you must buy consoles from another region for buy eur and jap games from eshop

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
