Trying to make a purchase on eshop and getting error

$

I am trying to purchase Donkey Kong Country Returns on the 3DS eshop, but I keep getting an error code when I hit the Tap to Purchase button.  The Error Code is 007-0309 and it says Pricing information has been updated.  Please check the current price.

 

I am eligible for the discount from the DKC games on my WiiU and I see DKCR marked "discount".  I don't know what the problem is.


Error Code: 001-0811 Possible 3DS System Update?

For some reason, I keep on getting this error code, and I'm very close to my Internet. Not just the normal maintenance, the Internet maintenance. I'm thinking "is this a possible 3DS update not announced?"

Purchased MH4U, Redeemed Theme Code, Unable to Download Theme

I was hoping to get this resolved quickly but seems like that's not gonna happen so here's the gist. Dog wakes me up, see's it's 9 in the morning, turns on system, goes to eShop, purchases Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate on Launch. Success, selects Download Later, Sees and selects"Enter Code," Download requirements for the free themes included with purchase, Error pops up forcing me to go to Home, reinputs code given on receipt (fails of coarse), checks "Your Downloads" and all over Theme shop and no where do I see the free themes. Please someone tell me what am I over looking and tell me it is simple because I hate to find out I would have to call custormer support over some free download. I hope this will not escalate into a whole bigger issue, but more importantly I hope I'm not screwed and forever unable to download the themes unless they pop up on the store making me have to buy them when I already registered the code for the themes.

 

Side Note: I have no idea what the error was, I thought it was a classic error pop-up possibly due to high traffic. Still I would not in any way think the error would be important but just incase, no I do not know what the error was.

New Nintendo 3DS Transfer Emergency!

$
0
0

Hello all-

I'm in quite a predicament, and I would be eternally grateful if someone could help me.

3 weeks ago, I owned a Nintendo 3DS XL- a happy owner, my favorite game was Pokemon: Alpha Sapphire, which I had downloaded the day it was released and had logged over 200 hours playing it. My collection of Pokemon, both competitive and collected, rivaled any of anyone I had met so far.

Then, I saw a deal for $100 ioff a pre-order of the New Nintendo 3DS XL if I turned in my current DS a week before the New was to be released.

At first, I had a question- How will I get my system transferred if I have to turn it in early?

But I answered myself with a laugh- If GameStop is one of the only ways to get the system in the U.S, and this was a deal, then there has to be a way to do it with my SD card. Nintendo isn't that stupid, right?

 

So I copied my game data to a Micro SDHC card.

 

When I recieved my New Nintendo 3DS XL later that week, to my dismay, when I plugged in the Micro SD card, nothing came up. Alpha Sapphire was gone.

 

That week, I made over 20 calls to Nintendo Customer Service. Each call, I gained somewhat more ground in getting my saves back.

 

First, they remotely transferred my NNID to my new 3DS. I redownloaded the game, but the save data was still gone.

 

Now, I've tried about 50 times, doing everything I've been told in the transfer process. I've tried many Micro SD cards, and nothing has worked.

Today, I called again, and the new representative whispered to me at the end that while it isn't reccomended, it's possible to move the specific game files from my SD card and replace them with the new save data files on my Micro SD card. But Nintendo's file system is a cryptic maze of numbered folders. I know where the game itself is (I mean, it's 1.74 gb) but I have no idea how to move its Save files to my new one.

 

I need help. My DS is my life, and I just can't imagine having to play the game again.

 

Any suggestions? Is there anyone who would walk me through this?

Sincerely,

An Angry and Sad Pokemon Trainer

Nintendo making me re-buy all my games again

$

I had the original 3DS which I puchased many eshop games just because I didn't like using cartridges.  Plus it's convenient to carry many games within the system.  Haven't played with the 3DS in awhile and decided to sell it.  I did a factory restore and sold my 3DS.  Now I just purchased a new 3DS in hopes to redownload all my paid games and found out that those games are tied to my original 3DS.  I called Nintendo customer service about the problem.  They see my purchases on Club Nintendo along with my original 3DS serial number.  But they say that they can't do anything about it and that the only way to get those games again is to re-buy them again.  I had an Ambassador Certificate as well with my original 3DS.  The tech support won't even help me in authorizing a redownload to my new 3DS.  This is unfair to people like me.  Forcing us to re-buy everything.

 

Anyone have a solution for this problem?  There's no way I'm going to re-buy hundreds of dollars of games again.

3DS Connection Issues

I've tried to research this issue up using google & nintendo's error code help as well. I've tried to reset the routers & everything else in the house connects just fine to the router. As well the 3DS was connection just fine two days ago but today just keeps giving me error code 003-2001 for our main router & 003-2102 for our second router. Don't know what else to do & I'm at my wits end.


Nintendo eShop Error Code 005-4270

$

Before I begin, I have done a little research on this error code and have noted that it relates to the network status; however, after checking, the network status is in proper working order. I shouldn't be having an issue.

 

What happens is when I launch the Nintendo eShop app, it will do one of two things:

 

  1. Attempt to connect and then display the error code, saying that I should restart my system before trying again
  2. Connect me to the Nintendo eShop, display a Terms of Service page, and then begin downloading

 

Regarding the second point in that list, the download will eventually come to a screeching halt and give me the error code, and on occasion, the system even displayed a notice saying that it will restart.

 

I'm at a loss for what to do. Aside from checking the network status, which I've noted above, I also gave my undivided albeit brief attention to this topic at GameFAQs, which cites not having your Connection Settings set to "Auto-obtain" under the DNS settings. While this worked for a few users who posted within the topic, this was not my issue as my Connection Settings happen to be set to "Auto-obtain" already.

 

I really need to update my Nintendo 3DS XL, download the patches for Pokemon X and Pokemon Y, and download the special demo for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, so anybody who can lend me a helping hand will receive my unending gratitude.

3DS Update Problem

I just got a Nintendo 3DS a few hours ago, and am trying to update it. When the system starts to update, it stops and a message comes up saying "An error has occurred. Unable to update. The system will now be restarted." I have deleted then input back in my internet settings 3 times, and still continue to have this problem. What can I do to fix this?

 

Thanks,

SD Card not detected

This just started happening when I updated my 3DS. Every time I try to access the eShop, or even the Home menu, I get an error message saying that the system "Could not detect an SD card" and "The software on the SD card could not be displayed". Also, it tells me the portion of my SD card that stores software data is corrupted when I access the eShop and redirects me to data management. I have formatted everything and I still get this error. Please help!

3DS Black Screen of Death 2013

$

Towards the end of April, I was playing Pokemon Black 2 on my 3DS. I closed the lid one night and let it sleep. Over the course of the night the battery died. I woke up the next morning and tried to turn it on. It turned on for a little but then died again because it didn't have enough juice. I plugged in the charger to let it charge, but it never fully came on again. When I turn it on, both of the backlights come on, the power light comes on, the charging light comes on, and the wifi light will come on. The 3D slider light does not. If I hold the power button, but screens turn on and the 3D light and displays the regualr "In Sleep Mode, the system can..." message. From this screen I can power off fully, but when I try to go to the Home screen, it lags indefinitely.

 

With my 3DS in this state I've been looking for solution, I found out about the system update screen where you turn the system on holding L, R, A and up. This worked fine, both of my screens turned on and I could update, if there was an update to update. I've waited months for the update that came out a few days ago hoping that this would fix my problem. It did not. I contacted NIntendo about this problem and they didn't know what to do with it either, finally teling me to send it in for 100 bucks to fix it.

 

My 3DS is a launch day Black 3DS with ambassador games and everything. Every 3DS with this specific problem I've read up on so far have been 3DS from that window with ambassador games and all which leads me to believe that it might have been a defect with that specific batch of 3DS's. I made this thread to see if anyone else had the same 3DS as me that has this problem and if ANYONE has found a fix for it yet that doesn't involve me giving Nintendo 100 more dollars after the 250 bucks I paid for it at launch. Please help guys. Thank you in advance.

In SSB3DS, any type of game I try to play online I get the above error code. The error message on nintendos sport page says to make sure I'm connected to my router.. it's right next to me and my signal is really strong. Not sure if it has to do with port forwarding/nat issues (I have tho issues here at college in the dorms with my ps4) or if it is something on nintendos end. Any help?

I noticed the eshop is still not working for me. Has anyone else been able to get through since yesterday? I think the holiday must have had something to do with it. If it was because too many people were trying to set up their new systems it shouldve been back up by now. If its not up later today, maybe Ill try calling the 800 number.

Hello! I have seen lots of people saying their 3ds is stolen/lost so I am wondering if there is anything I can do about it before it happens to me. For example, what apple does for the ipod touch/iphone/ipad at me.com. Is their a way to track it with a serial number?

3DS won't turn on.

My 3DS will no longer power on. I noticed a while ago that it would click off if I set it down on a table or something occasionally, and I thought about sending it in for repairs, but could not find the information, and it always powered back on. Now it has stopped powering back on. But I let it charge all last night, and it still did not power on this morning (it wasn't even getting a charge light). Could someone please point me to what I am supposed to do? I have looked at the "how to get your system repaired" page which is supposed to list all the problems I could be having and what to do to send the system in for repairs, except it doesn't have any listing for "system won't power on."
