for Nintendo eshop downloads i know Nintendo says that you can only store up to 300titles in the Nintendo eshop account but Ive had my 3ds for at least 2 years now and im running out download titles space it says on my eshop account that i only have 289 games that i have been brought and downloaded but it says i can only store 300 games is it possible that when i reach up to 300 that it could store up to 399 titles i just don't wanna have to go out and buy another 3dsxl system i just got the Wii U and that is awesome but i cant afford another 3dsxl would someone explain this to me thank you

I'm not sure. Space shouldn't be a problem since you can delete the games you no longer wish to play, though contacting Nintendo seems to be your only option.

I would be very surprised and very disappointed if this was the case.

I can't imagine even Nintendo doing something so stupid as to restrict how much its most fanatical fans would buy.

Well,they DID make it so that you have a play limit for demos,which is the dumbest thing they've done.

Where does it say you only have 300 downloads? I didn't even know there were restrictions.

You can only have 300 on your system at one time. There is no limit to the amount of games you can purchase from the eshop.

I've never seen anything about this anywhere. It would be a profoundly stupid move, though.

Does this includes demos, 3D videos, and stuff? Or is it just games?

If that's the dumbest thing Nintendo has ever done then I envy them and their near perfect performance.
Limited demos are a good idea. Honestly if you've played the demo more than 30 (or whatever) times then its time to go and buy the game. The time you have to play the demo is always more than enough time to decide whether or not you're going to buy it. After that there's no reason they should give infinite free content from fractions of retail games.

What kind of person would play a demo 30 times, like it, and not go buy the full game? It's not that bad an idea...

the reason why i ask is because im just curious if people have like 400downloads on the eshop account you know where it says your downloads and you click on the eshop and it says up top on the eshop screen that you have 200 or something downloaded and than it would say would you like to redownload them the point of my question is that im wondering if i can download up to like 500titles on my eshop account thats what im trying to find out because i transfered all my 3DS GAMES ON MY RED 3DS to my 3DSXL AND I HAVE LIKE 289 GAME TITLES on my eshop account some of them are downloaded but i wanted to know if i could store up to like 500games or something
