Ah, that happened to me as well. They'll show up after midnight.

Yep, I see them now. Interesting, they must show up at midnight local time.

I noticed an odd thing with the daily store check-in and Richi City check-in, where if I check in after 10:00am ET, midnight in Korean, I get the daily check in, but it doesn't end up counting towards the "total days" number for those rewards. But I still have to play the games after midnight ET in order to check in. So one relies on midnight in Korea, while the other relies on midnight local time, meaning I only have a 10 hour window each day to fully effectively check in.

Yeah I'm aware of that method but it sucks when you still have eShop credits on your account or an active NSO membership (which I have from time to time to sync some savegames from my hacked OLED to the Switch 2 ^^).

I found this info on switching regions with an NSO plan:

https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSw...hing_regions_on_your_account_will_not_affect/
  • You can still unlink your Nintendo Network ID from the accounts page (necessary if you have it linked and want to Switch regions).
  • Your gold coins are still region-bound (just as they were before).
  • Switching regions still messes up your news feed sadly.
  • Now for the new stuff: if you want to switch regions, you'll first have to disable automatic renewal of your NSO subscription since that doesn't carry over. Don't forget to turn automatic renewal back on once you're done if you want it!
  • Even though automatic renewal had to be turned off, the actual subscription itself was not affected. After doing the whole process my sub was still set to expire next week.
  • I checked my cloud saves after doing all the steps and they are still there, you don't have to back them up after switching between regions.

I bolded the most relevant part. For NSO It looks like you can disable automatic renewal, switch regions, buy a title, switch back, and re-enable automatic renewal with your subscription intact.

From what I can find, if you change regions, you will lose any existing eShop balance, although NA won't let you change regions unless your eShop balance is 0 anyway.

Yep, that was quite the journey. I switched to NA to claim those No Gravity games but missed one inbetween and decided to pay it for 1.99 $ to keep the streak going. Since I cannot use my german credit cards to buy US eShop coins, I had to buy 5 $ from a shady reseller site (fortunately that worked out).
After Christmas I wanted to change back to Germany only to find out that I have to spend my remaining coins first lol. Looked like forever to find a game with that exact amount only to find out in the checkout (!) that taxes are added just then and thus are too much for my coins. Had to do the maths to find out with cheaper game I had to buy so the amount + taxes is exactly as high as what I had left.

Sorry for off topic but I had to share that story. :D
Thanks for your research on NSO!
