So, I'm from central america and with the new 3ds system update I wont be able to change regions if I want to use miiverse.

The US eshop does not accept my credit card but I can buy codes via gamesupply, on the other hand I can use my credit card in the canadian eshop.

Help me decide US or Canada

Why don't you make like a tree and get out of here?

Sounds like going Canadian would be the less painful of the two. No point in having to use a middle man to buy games.

"Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. When I am a child, creating, I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child."

I say Canada. If you ever have the need to buy a game and for whatever reason you can't buy a download card you still have that second option.

Edit: now that I think about it...it's kinda funny that, in Nintendo's eyes, I'm Canadian haha

Pretty sure the content is the same on both. Actually, isn't it just one eshop for North America?

So you can't switch your location now? I heard it was easier to get things from the Canadian e-shop because it can be cheaper and it accepts most credit and debit cards.
