Wanting to trade my $50 US E-Shop code for a Canadian one!

[javano]

Accidentally bought a $50 US code thinking it was the same region as Canada... apparently that's not the case.

Now I'm out $50... Anyone willing to trade for a Canadian code? I'd love you forever.

Nope. NA cards doesn't work on Canada, nor Canadian ones on NA.

Don't sweat it bro, there's a silver lining in here somewhere

Wait what? So I'm in Canada, and if I bought a NA eshop card from here it wouldn't work?

Physical cards sold in Canada are Canadian Region cards, not NA Region.

If you change your 3ds region, it will work

... Isn't Canada in North America?

Edit: Ok, by NA you meant USA, right?

You can't change your region because of your Nintendo Network ID.

... Isn't Canada in North America?

It's listed on the North American 3DS but after Nintendo introduced Nintendo Network IDs, once you create one, you can't change your region from United States to Canada. eShop credit codes do not work, but game download codes will still work.

Not at all, you can trade stuff for giving a fast example.

At this rate Nintendo should enable a gift option on the eShop, if this happens, you can redeem the card and then we can buy you the games with that card...

For example, a $20 card and you want Code of Princess (also $20). In that case, any member of the staff can use that card, buy the game's code and then you will be able to redeem it without problems.

 

[jasjas]

Thank you guys so much!
