I thought it was known, you can buy from the UK e-shop with just a small amount of fiddling.

1. Create a secondary NNID that lives in the UK.

 

2. Change your console 'country of residence' to UK in console settings.

 

3. Switch user to your newly created UK NNID (if you're not already logged in as them) - note: your icons may have changed position don't worry about it.

 

4. Launch e shop!

 

5. Buy (remember prices are in pounds).

 

6. Close e-shop BUT wait for the download to finish. (Not sure if it matters but it seems best to leave it alone)

 

7. Revert your console back to Australia as country of residence.

 

8. Switch back to your usual NNID account. Your new game will be there and all icons will be back where they were when you started.

Cool!

I think I might just wait for this one as I'm in no rush, I still haven't finished Hyrule Warriors, but now I know what to do if we ever miss out on an eshop game! ;)

I set it up due to the Trine 2 delay. 

 

I still buy most of my games on the Oz e shop but browse the UK one occasionally to see if they have sanything we don't and for specials.
