When they say "midnight" on the eShop, do they mean PT or ET or what? I want to set it to download before I go to bed tonight but I don't want to stay up until 3.
12am EDT, 9pm PDT.

EDT. Us future-timers are spared the late night pain caused by most west coast companies.

There's a decimal in front of that 7.

.7, not 7.
About 700 megabytes in .7 gigabytes, and there's 8 blocks per megabyte, which comes out to around 5600 blocks.
So maybe a tiny bit more than .7 gigabytes, but not by much. Assuming the size is for sure 6000-ish blocks.
I tried the Japanese site with my American New Leaf yesterday and it rejected the screenshot.
Okay, that sounds reasonable. I guess AC will be my first retail digital game. Thanks!
Oh, I apologize for the lateness of my reply. I was out with someone...
I'm using ShopTo. I had an email yesterday saying that due to massive demand they're starting to process orders much earlier to keep up.

Went to Gamestop yesterday to just check on my pre order and make sure everything was good to go for Sunday. Apperently they only got 1 order of the AC bundle and I'm that one reserve. They have had several people come and try to reserve since I did on the first day of annoucement. I feel special ^_^ lol

So what's the incentive of donating things to the museum?
Same incentive as 90% of the game. You just do it for the accomplishment.

Are they displayed in the museum after donating at least?
In Wild World they did I believe. You can walk trough the museum and watch them.
Town names can only be 8 characters long? That's limiting my options.
So much for North Haverbrook.
Of course. Wouldn't be much of a museum otherwise.

Of course.
Wouldn't be much of a museum otherwise.Oh yeah, of course they are. From what I understand, in this game you'll also get Blathers to tell you more about completed pieces when you walk around the exhibits. Before you only got the info when you first donated.

Gotcha, thanks guys.
That should be added to the OP. I was just looking for the screenshot sharing info and it wasn't there.
The cart will have its saves in the cart while the digital version will save to your SD card. So I assume you cannot transfer between the two.
There's a transfer tool that lets you move retail game saves to the digital versions.
Yeah, that's what I was referring to. I wasn't sure if nintendo was updating the tool for each and every new release (of theirs) or not. Especially given how saves for Animal Crossing apparently work.

Giant Bomb has a quick look of the game for anyone interested before picking it up tonight.
I'm pretty new to the series so this is kind of good for me to get an idea of what it'll be like.

Hmmm. I bought my copy from Amazon USA, and it expected shipping to take until next Wednesday. But my order says it's shipping now! Yay! I could get it Monday or Tuesday at that rate.

I've decided. If the Gamestop next to where I work is out of it tomorrow when I check on my break, I'm going digital.

Do XLs come with an SD card or can you not save while playing the digital version without going out and buying a new card?

the 3DS XL comes with a 4GB SD card and any digital save data saves to the SD card

I think I'm going to go digital because I have $10 in Eshop credit I may as well use. I've never done this for a retail title before due to Nintendo's awful DD policies, but saving $10 plus getting it at midnight might push me over. I understand that the game will save to the sd card, but is there any weird encryption that would prevent me from restoring a backup of that data?
