Definitely Downloading.

Download Later --> 3DS in cradle --> Painful wait for data completion.

I feel like download later always takes much longer than download now. But maybe I'll let it go overnight.

 

[robotzombie]

Oh god, if my store doesn't have it tomorrow I know I'm going to cave and get it from the eshop...

 

[CSX]

Slightly above the bottom border of the logo. COME ONNNNNN

 

[ohlawd]

You guys are in for the best night or morning of your lives~

 

[Shiggie]

I put it in sleep mode so maybe it'll download a bit faster.... hahaha who am I kidding...

My case too

 

[vareon]

I can't believe I'm entertaining the thought of spending $40 to get the game slightly earlier than I would anyway.

God dammit.

This. What is wrong with me.

 

[Victrix]

People are downloading a game from Nintendo on the internet to an SD card on release day

Truly the apocalypse is nigh

 

[Galactic Fork]

I shouldn't have come into this thread. The pixel cart is losing its draw. The fact that the instruction book is a big folded sheet of paper doesn't help either.

Buy both!

What's the deal with redownloading/changing 3ds' etc?

More like "give in to an exception."

But that wonderful pixel cart~

 

[vall03]

Downloading now! Why are the speeds in my country so damn slow?!

Well, if you have the cart, then if your 3DS breaks or something, you'll be able to play it on a new system without calling Nintendo and possibly being told that there's nothing they can do. That's the main thing keeping me away from the higher-priced Nintendo digital download stuff.

 

[SoulUnison]

I feel like download later always takes much longer than download now. But maybe I'll let it go overnight.

I'm not 100% sure I have enough energy to wait for the download without just deciding I'll play first thing in the morning.

Eyelids get heavy, man.

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

A little more than half-way through the download right now...

 

[Hale-XF11]

Half-way there!

 

[EvilMario]

Just beat Chapter 11. Anna is absurdly powerful and must be my waifu.

 

[Colonel Nasty]

Only at 30%....

That's a good point. But I suspect that will change when the 3ds gets the NNID system.

Edit: I'm waiting until then to buy the XL

 

[Kincaido]

About half way now. Hurry!

 

[Aeana]

That's a good point. But I suspect that will change when the 3ds gets the NNID system.

But it's an issue with the Wii U and it already has that.

 

[Saprol]

Game should have

Spoiler

given us a full party of Anna's.

 

[flake]

Half-way there!

You guys are flying! About 20% done, although I am in Australia

 

[AGITΩ]

Welp, since I knew Best Buy wouldn't get shipments in, and Gamestop was a no go, I took a quick ride to walmart....Which was the biggest fail ever.

Me: "I was checking to see if you had a game in stock?"
Walmart Associate: "Whats the game?"
Me: "Fire Emblem on 3DS"
WA: *dials phone* "I got someone looking for Fire Entree on 3DXbox"

Long story short, they didnt get it in either...so I'm too impatient since I requested off Monday and Tuesday just to play this game, only to have to wait till monday...Oh well Direct Download, here I come.

 

[WrenchNinja]

That's a good point. But I suspect that will change when the 3ds gets the NNID system.

Right, cause they've really shown they've learned how to do content management with the Wii U.

That's the one thing that is stopping me from downloading it. I want the cart so if I ever break it I still have the game.

 

[Hale-XF11]

And then there's the DLC to download after that, heh.

 

[Tathanen]

I'm at 80%ish and now it's only dropping in like one or two gems at a time! Sometimes NO gems! MOTHERFUCK!!!

 

[JPBrowncoat]

Sooo slow! https://vine.co/v/b19u3DeD9JB

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

Three-fourths of the way right now. You must be downloading the US version, right?

 

[Galactic Fork]

But it's an issue with the Wii U and it already has that.

Wait really? You can't just transfer your stuff to a new Wii U if the one you have is broke?

Or download it when you get the NNID assigned to the new WiiU?

 

[CSX]

Internet crashed for a second. Thank you 3DS for resuming downloads without any problems.

50 percent done,

 

[OryoN]

Can anyone confirm how many blocks the entire download take up?

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

Wait really? You can't just transfer your stuff to a new Wii U if the one you have is broke?

Yeah, it's kind odd. Downloads are locked to the system, just like Wii, despite having an "account".

 

[zroid]

Can anyone confirm how many blocks the entire download take up?

it's in the OP!

 

[ohlawd]

Can anyone confirm how many blocks the entire download take up?

8579.

 

[Beelzebub]

Mines going pretty strong! only a quarter left !

 

[Tathanen]

Can anyone confirm how many blocks the entire download take up?

Said eight thousand something when I started.

 

[Marche90]

Online!!

...Although I'm having second thoughts about buying it. I guess I can wait until I get my deposit on Thursday...

But then again, food is SO overrated...

 

[Veitsev]

Only reason I got this on eshop was the problems with retailers getting it in+ the shitton of dlc it apparently has. Probably won't make a habit out of it as I like to be able to sell my games. This one seems like it is worth it though. This+Pokemon X/Y will probably be the only titles I buy at midnight.

 

[Tunavi]

Something about 3DS cases are too sexy to pass up.

 

[Necrovex]

80% done. I am so close to being able to play Fire Emblem!

 

[Kincaido]

Waifus will give you all the energy you need.

Yep! Ive got a US 3ds. Pretty happy I dont have to wait till April for this

Its kinda opposite actually, the "account" is whats locked to the system, but the downloads are registered to the account.

 

[Freezie KO]

I'm only at 20%. So slow.
