I know someone who might want it, but I'll let you have it if he doesn't want it. I'll pick up a gift receipt.

Are the screws on the back of the n3ds the same as OG 3ds?

I thought the N3DS took #0 according to the manual. Don't tell me I bought the wrong one. u_u

I saw it in one of the other threads. I just bought a pack for $2.50 that has #0 and a #00 so I think I'm good.
Edit: I found a thread on IGN that has people saying Nintendo stated a #0 but they also pointed out that GAF says it's a #00. I would trust Nintendo more for this.
I would, but the order on the website gives me an error every time I try to access it.

I bought this 32gb micromsd card + adapter for 20 bucks. http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B008EODGIM/
Looks decent enough.

I held the Majora's Mask LE N3DS box today. lol
Just bought that same one at Staples for about the same price. Everything is copied onto it, and I'm ready to transfer on Friday!

It felt like exquisite cardboard, and smelled like roses.

Oh I forgot to mention, yesterday I was supposed to receive my Micro SD cars from Amazon and the Canada Post delivery lady wouldn't come to my door until it was closed because she saw my dog, so I looked out the peep hole and watched as this fucking ass never left the van and just took off. Yet, she had scanned my package as successfully delivered. I contacted Canada Post and let them know about it, and they said it should be delivered today. Hopefully something similar doesn't happen with the MMN3DS, whenever the hell Amazon decides to ship it out.

I was hoping it would be a 9PM launch here in BC, like Smash was, but someone asked on tiwtter and it sounds like it's midnight. Oh well.

Wait so if I'm getting a Majora's Mask New 3DS, I just need to pop a 32GB Micro SD into the new console and I can transfer everything from my old XL with 32GB SD card right over?
Also, has anyone had ANY update from Amazon about their Majora's Mask New 3DS pre order? I'm getting restless!
EDIT: By the way, I feel like I should let you guys know that Walmart almost definitely won't be carrying the Majora's Mask consoles, at least not in Ontario.

Ehh? Why?
if you do exactly like you said, you'll wipe all your data. there are a bunch of links posted itt regarding transfers

That should work. Might take a long time depending on how much data you have to transfer. Not sure what the person above means by wiping you data.

Other than what I was told yesterday, I haven't heard a peep.

Not sure. We get weekly "store notes" about upcoming product releases and there were only details and UPCs for the 2 standard editions. no mention of the special edition at all.
my bad, made a lot of assumptions
you will end up deleting all your shit if you moved all your data from old to new then wiping the old card clean and do the transfer
but still, don't deviate from what the guides on the net tell you.

I wanted to know this too. I have that screw driver at home to remove the screws from my XL, but wondering if it's the same for N3DS. I've heard there's a typo on Nintendo's site about the screw driver from Reddit but I don't know if that's true.

I mentioned above that I bought a tool set from Dollarama for $2.50 that has phillips #0 and #00 in it so I should be good either way.
I've heard it's one of those two.
you sure that set had a #00? I saw a set for 2.50 as well but smallest it went was #0
as long as you're careful, sure

Majora's Mask Limited Editions with Skullkid should be in the back at your EB Games now.
Give them a call and confirm your preorder now!

I don't need a PC to transfer between my current 3DS XL to my New 3DS XL on Friday do I?
You do if you want to keep the stuff on your SD card. You can do that in advance, though.

What exactly is saved only on the SD card? Why wouldn't eveything just transfer?
Games, save data, pictures and videos, DLC, etc.. Transferring only transfers licenses. Copying everything would take hours.

Interested in trading my 3DS XL for the new one at EBgames and it says:
"Please note that you will be able to transfer your data from your existing 3DS to your NEW 3DS XL console. Please see sales associate for full details."
Anyone know how they'll let me transfer?
Doesn't the process take hours?

Brush up on the different process methods. Check with your store to make sure they will let you go home and do the transfer and then bring the old one back to trade.
A lot of people just do the transfer in store but some of the do take hours.
I don't think your body is ready.

You buy the new 3DS outright, then when you come in the next day to trade in your old one (with your receipt to show you purchased a n3DS) they bump up the trade value. Pretty simple.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
Anyone know what's going on with Amazon orders: Rosalina, Majora's Mask still in limbo for anyone else?
The Elite

I don't think anyone has seen their Rosalina budge at Amazon.
Majora's Mask LE and Majora's Mask N3DS still without a shipping date for me.
