Nintendo 3DS

[fox mulder]

how do you get the zelda and mario backgrounds in swap note? and how come you gotta unlock all the cool backgrounds?

You just have to get it from someone else. I got them from Aaron Kaluszka, who works for NWR, and i think he got them from NintenDaan, who is NWR's Japanese correspondent? And he got them from someone... and so on.

I'm assuming downloading stationary is a feature you unlock that I haven't yet.

[Naner]

Wrong. As soon as you unlock stationeries, you can download new ones... But someone has to send them to you.

[okey]

Pixel art looks so fucking cool in 3d, they need to make more 2d games for this thing already. Mighty Switch Force and Mutant Mudds aren't enough

Yeah, I see what you're saying. Just took it a while. I'm really happy I know you guys.

Mine was stolen, here is my new friend code for the replacement: 1375 - 8141 - 5184.

[Naner]

Damn! For the amount of eShop games I have in my 3DS, I'd be devastated if that happened to me. Hopefully Nintendo Network will allow us to save our purchases on the web...

Added the new you.

Yeah me too, it's odd they haven't done this already, like when the 3DS launched. I notice you can do some sort of transfer between DSi and 3DS so hopefully it'll be possible to transfer onto an online account, and hopefully for the Wii also.

[fox mulder]

I'm pretty sure you can, it's in the downloads section of the options (where the ambassador games where).

You can re-download purchases, but only on the same system. All purchases are connected directly to a system. You can use the transfer tool to send them to a new 3DS, but you need to have both systems to do it - won't help if the old one was lost or stolen.

[fox mulder]

Ah, well shit man, hope you didn't lose too much.

[AMetroidGuy]

Wrong. In the US at least, if you register your system & link your eShop account to Club Nintendo, you can call them then fax a copy of the police report & they will move your games to your new 3DS when you buy it.

Btw, does anyone have the friend code of my old system? I should probably save it just for my records. Naner, if you didn't delete it already, can you send a swapnote & say the original owner is offering $200, no questions asked, & keep Kid Icarus: Uprising if it's returned.

I got Mighty Switch Force.

It's got a minor shout out to Super Metroid, but I'm not gonna tell you where (don't buy the game cause it has a super metroid reference though, seriously that's dumb).

Finally bought MSF. And yes, you were right - her full death sequence is a Super Metroid reference. Her outfit is 100% Samus from Super. We'll be adding it to the cameos page soon of course.

Sure. I'll PM you if I get a response.

Holy shit this ad is actually funny and good. It's (dare i say it) super-effective.

As a huge fan of The Soup, I found this hysterical. This is exactly the kind of "non-advertising" he does with his guest stars who are supposed to advertise their shows.

This is also out of left field for Nintendo. I love it.
