3DS

This is something that Nintendo has hinted at previously, and most had assumed that something like this would be implemented.

Anyway, the point here is that a customer service representative has “confirmed” (can a rep actually confirm things?) that the Wii U and 3DS will share the same account system through the eShop. The compatibility wasn’t given an exact date for the 3DS, but unified accounts will be ready out of the box for Wii U.

A few other tidbits were shared by the same representative. As many of you know, Nintendo can keep your eShop account in tact if it’s damaged. It can also be transferred in the event that the system is stolen. Finally, there is “nothing to announce regarding Latin American availability” for digital downloads on the eShop.
