Got my target.com order a day early. I'll likely not keep this as I already have a JPN N3DS regular and like the smaller size. But got this one just in case 8.1J isn't supported by GW for some reason.

Black N3DS XL: 9.0

Same for me if everything goes well

To tell the truth, after all this waiting I regret my GW purchase.
And with this my N3DSLL JAP import. For now it was a useless waste of time and money.

Maybe in the end I can play something on my JAP console with GW. Maybe.
But I will have to deal with a JAP console forever.

As a customer, for GW I am not even worth a news update or ETA.
How can that be?

What a shitty customer experience.

Coming from the person who IMPORTED a console in which they rely on a product that doesn't support there console (yet). Honestly, that was your decision. Waiting for it to come out in your region would have been a much smarter option in my opinion. At least then you could still play games from your local store and be able to understand it. Don't complain, it was your actions that lead to this. No where did GW tell you to import a console.

Yes - it was my decision.

But the customer experience is still shitty.
So I try to get some news from here.
Like many others who are sitting there with expensive paperweights.

The fucking truth is that fucking video on GW website 3 months ago is just a fucking shit. You can't blame others. What we should do is fucking damn GW. Why they fucking use New 3DS in that video. It's totally a lie. Fuck them all.

 

[VeryCrushed]

Lol all I know is that I have a Gateway, and tomorrow I will have a N3DS. The difference? I'll actually be able to play games that I already have without having to import them and learn a second language. General rule - importing a console you can't use is the same thing as literally buying a brick.

OMG - shock, it works?!

You made a gamble that GW's N3DS support would be limited to JPN/AUS consoles due to firmware differences. This is a gamble you lost. Now you're just sour about it.

You still have a perfectly functional console, and GW support when and if it comes. And if US consoles HAD been 9.3+ as you gambled they would be, you would have had to "deal with" the JPN console "forever" anyway. Well, now it's time to sleep in the bed you made.

As a side note to all the JP 3ds complainers you can play american ds games totally fine... All of this broken nail whining is pretty much irrelevant. If your a grown man, take the loss like one, and if you're a kid... There's your lesson...

Man, after holding the XL for a bit I wish the regular one was just a little bit bigger. The XL is just too large/heavy to be portable for me, but it is much more comfortable in my hands than the regular or old 3DS. My gf has the big iphone 6 and I thought that was just too big to take around, the XL is even bigger than that. I tried to put the XL in my pocket and about 1/4 sticks out the top. I guess if you wear a lot of cargo shorts it might work out.

The XL though is very comfortable, except for the button placements. They are about the same distance from the edge as the regular N3DS which is my main issue with the 3DS in general. It makes by thumb cramp up and the XL doesn't seem to remedy that issue.

One thing I hate about the XL from holding it for a minute, the glossy. If it was matte I might entertain the idea of selling my JPN N3DS and keeping the XL. Although how could I give up the faceplates and colored buttons? I can't.

Just wanna confirm if is possible to add my local debit visa card details into JPN N3DS eShop account to add funds or not?

Don't think so. Pretty sure that is why places like nippon-yasan offer to sell you JPN eshop credit for a small upcharge.

Yes should be possible... I've read multiple times that you can and that it is Sony that requires the gift cards.

I wonder if a jap n3dll would sell for 200 on craigslist
