Support NeoGAF

[Yofaycesux]

I believe it takes a little while to unlock that feature, though.

Is it only the main Mii? Or can I snag one for any of the ten or so Gold-Pantsers I've snagged?

I completely forgot that the game supports screencaps:

A friend of mine left me a little bundle last night!

Now I just need to figure out how to transfer my old system to my new baby without obliterating my copy of Animal Crossing!

That looks cool. I don't care if it looks like a pop tart, I'd still get it!

How are you hosting them? Is there an option to host them online directly from the game or do you just have to upload them from your SD card?

That's the downside. The photos automatically save to your photo folder on your SD card and then you have to copy them from the SD card to your PC to upload them.

Going to trade in a few 360 accessories tonight to Gamestop to get in on that bonus credit and preorder two copies for $8. Cancelled my old ass NewEgg preorder already since I am getting the wife the XL bundle.

Then on Sunday morning will head to TRU and get my five year old a copy using his $25 gift card from his birthday and price match it with KMart's ad.

After getting off the phone with Gamestop, the girl who answered said I could get two copies....no problems at all. I guess the 'tight allocation' may be store specific.

Smithnco noted above you can use any Mii, though I imagine it would have to be a Mii in Mii Maker, not in StreetPass Plaza.

Nintendo has a site (currently in Japanese, planned to be localized to at least Europe), https://i.nintendo.net/, which can post screenies on an SD to Twitter or Tumblr from the 3DS web browser, but it will only deal with either Animal Crossing or Tomodachi screenshots.

I wondered several days ago if it would work with the North American or European versions of New Leaf. To my knowledge, nobody's tried it yet.

If all that fails, there's always http://tw3ds.com/, which will link to Twitter and can post any SD screenshot (I used it with Style Savvy as a test.)

Officially going for a TARDIS/Doctor theme for my town. This is my first AC so I'm not sure how involved that will be. Having a clear purpose of what I plan to do with the game has me a lot more excited.

There's a phone box furniture item... I wonder if they let you make it blue. That would be awesome, haha.

 

[El Pescado]

Ugh... I don't wanna wait until Saturday. I hate everyone who's finding this early. ;_;

You should play some games while you wait.

Niiice. I've managed to snag four of the RE:R gold's, Miamoto, and I think Reggie, amongst others. All in my Mii maker.

This will be my first Animal Crossing experience and I can't wait to play this on Sunday.

 

[Soul Beat]

Where are people getting this early? I need to know!

Usually you can buy a game from your local game shop. I got UMvC3 from a small local game shop in my town.

 

[Schadenfreude]

People are already getting it? D: So jelly.

 

[PolishQ]

No, that works just fine! You just have to make a "clean break" from one SD to another. Process:

1. Save to your old SD card one last time.

2. Shut down 3DS all the way.

3. Copy files from old card to new card.

4. Start up 3DS with new card.

After this process, the identifier matches perfectly, so there's no problem. If you tried to go *back* to your old card after using the new at this point, though, you risk losing both saves.

Alright, screw it. Buying a bigger SD card and going digital!

EDIT: Never mind~

Too bad.

Same, and I have to wait 7 more days!
Can't wait to finally make my town like I want. This game has a huge potential with user created content.

 

[SloaneRisette]

Wait, I bought a 32 GB Class 10 SD card because I knew I'd be getting more and more digital purchases as time went on. Can I still use that same SD card for the AC 3DSXL? Is it just as simple as copying the files on the SD card to my computer, doing the system transfer, and then recopying them to the SD card or something?

 

[Unicorn]

Managed to get the game early from Kmart. Glad about that, it'll be good for the flight to E3 on Saturday.

out of curiosity what state do you live in?

Assuming you don't have a 3DS yet, once you get your AC 3DSXL, you should be able to pop in your new SD card and Animal Crossing will be in your download history from the eShop. I was under the impression that you could just copy it from one SD card to another but that didn't work for me. I had to download the game from my download history.

I don't even think you need to copy the files onto your computer, but better safe than sorry I guess.
Hoo, but I digress, it is that simple.

I'm playing Animal Crossing in Japanese. It's torture.

Sticker on the top of the box means business.

 

[Midnight Moon]

I don't even know what I'm going to name my town fffffff....~!

 

[Revven]

I'm having one of my friends over on Saturday and we're both gonna download it at midnight. It's gonna be the sickest thing everrrrrrr (assuming it doesn't take eons to download, lol).

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Don't worry, you can stare at the input screen for an hour and it'll hit you then.

 

[weevles]

I'll probably get this...I think my daughter might enjoy it.

 

[FearMyWrench]

Aww yeah! I got the game! Don't check your friends list if you have me, I would rather not be slaughtered.

 

[Frolow]

Aww yeah! I got the game! Don't check your friends list if you have me, I would rather not be slaughtered.

How?

 

[beta_fuse]

What! Where? HOW?!?!

 

[Ferrio]

Where you guys getting it....

 

[Schadenfreude]

Jealousy spiraling out of control. Rage....slowly building.

I managed to get a copy from Nintendo of Canada a couple days early, it wasn't at a store! Sorry!

Wow. That's pretty damn early. Let us know what goes on. 8D

 

[ZAMtendo]

Ordered the Mother an Animal Crossing XL today. Ooh yea

 

[SloaneRisette]

Come on Gamestop... Unleash those pop tarts urley...

 

[DMiz]

Jealous! Still waiting for that eShop purchase button to pop up...

 

[Midnight Moon]

My copy is coming from Newegg but I preordered it all the way last year for $29.99. Can't wait for it to come

That 3DS XL looks nice. Right now I have Black 3DS, Blue 3DS XL, and Pikachu 3DS XL. Will probably get that Luigi & Charizard ones too lol. That way if one system breaks one day I have lots of extras to play

I should get a Japanese XL huh...?

 

[subtles]

My copy of the game just arrived! I'm going to start playing and would love to try the online features as I go along.

[darklin0]

Jealous of all you guys with a copy! D:

 

[patrickthehedgehog]

Got a precious arcade machine! GahhH!! Feels like home already!

 

[Effigenius]

That's another downside to buying digital, you can't take advantage of a retailer mistakenly putting the game out early.

 

[pariah164]

All you people getting early games... So much hate.
