Topic: eShop problem?

So I'm sending my 3DS to Nintendo to get repaired. No doubt they will try and claim that there's nothing wrong with my console and then charge me the fee for fixing stuff that isn't broken (seriously, Nintendo has that policy in Australia).

But they're not going to fool me

I got some errors in the beginning but they went away. I have 3 questions though. 1) Are you just always getting the error ever since the beginning? 2)Have you done the 2nd update they did after the eshop one? Finally 3)Did you go to nintendo and see what the error was?

Yes yes and yes. It's not a problem with my router - literally everything else works on it (including the 3DS' other online features). It's not a problem with Nintendo's online services in Australia, since both the DSi and Wii connect to their online services fine.

It's some kind of fault with my 3DS.

I think I'm going to wait for the next update to see if that fixes it. I really don't want to send mine somewhere if I don't have to.

Like you say it will still connect to the internet so it can't be a hardware issue, got to be some bug in the software that hopefully an update will fix.

Amazingly. The night before I send the 3DS off, the eShop is working again. It only took a week.

Still not working here, but theres an update tomorrow apparently, hope that will fix it.

EDIT - Actually working here now too. But Nintendo won't admit they've done something to fix it.

Of course not. The eShop is the ultimate online download service, after all. It's not Nintendo's fault when something goes wrong. It's ours.

Well, mine seems fixed since yesterday. Not wednesday but I can get back on.
