Hello.
Just a few hours ago, I got a Switch with a Eshop card. Problem is, I was stupid and used a razor blade to scratch off the card.
So I need help in figuring out what it actually says.
I attached a scan of the card. The edited out part is what did not get damaged.

If this is in the wrong section, sorry in advance.

See if you can't get a new one or contact Nintendo. Looks like it'll be indecipherable.
I'll not be able to get another one for a while, and NIntendo is closed for the Holiday. Forgot to put in that I tried to contact Nintendo lol.

Will it help if I provide a scan of another card, that I did not use a razor blade on? It's already used, but it could help.

I'm fairly sure the first several digits (first four?) are the same between all cards.

I just checked the codes i got, the first 2 digits were always the same.
So that might help.

Maybe
B0G6 - F3PL / B0QG - F3PL

From what I remember with nintendo cards, the first 4 are the same for the same VALUE of the card. As in, 10$ cards all have the same beginning then it's different but same for all 20$ cards and so on.

The value for the damaged card is $35.00
The un-damaged card was $10.00
Do you know the first 4 digits of $35.00 cards?

First digit looks like it could be B, E, G, S, or Z
Second looks like 0, or Q
3rd 6, B, G, (Maybe H/K/Q/S/5 if they got smeared)
4th 5, 6, B, G, or S
5th Can't see how it's not F
6th 3, 5, 6, B, G, or S
7th F, or P
8th L

I'm guessing B0G5-FSFL-XXXX but there's other characters to play with there

It's not B0G5-FSFL, but I'll try your other guesses.

B0QGF6FL? B0QGF6PL?
It's not either of those.

I should also say that @ I O = & ; Z * # ! ? are all grayed out when entering the code.

    I haven't been gaming for such a long time. Been mostly busy with sleep, hardware tinkering and checking GBAtemp frequently.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Hope you've had a good morning.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    It's going alright thanks :) I know what you mean with gaming time. It's precious where I can get it these days.

  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    I think that's why I focus on just enjoying single player experiences that aren't too competitive
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    How are you doing?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    There's also this thing where I'm hyperfocused at night and cannot get to sleep.

    @Maximumbeans, I'm doing alright, thanks.

    That must be rough. Productive I'm sure but hard to balance with daily life

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It was like all clear and fancy. Tbf I'm not too experienced with chess, but would like to learn someday.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    That sounds really cool

    I know the basics but no strategy at all :rofl:

    Watch chess streamers on Twitch and you'll pick up a thing or two.

    Not to mention there's an infinite number of chess games for every possible platform.
