Shocking, but this download is taking forever.

 

[watershed]

I'm getting an error code every time I click on the Smash icon in the eshop. Then it auto-restarts and the same happens again

 

[The Elite]

Had to restart eshop three times to show on sale.

Downloading in sleep mode now.

 

[PreyingShark]

I wonder if sleep mode will go faster...

With sleep mode you can put your 3DS far far away and not worry about it and then go do something else for a while.

 

[depward]

Connected, wasn't able to buy it.

Errored out.

Connecting, hitting the page and it says "Error Code: 010-3301. Information has been updated. Nintendo eShop will now restart.

Has done that now three times.

Oh joy!

I'M DOWNLOADING SUPER SMASH BROS FOR 3DS RIGHT NOW

GUYS

OH MY GOD

AHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[Mononoke]

I was able to grab it instantly, it's downloading really fast. I had to close out the e-shop then re-open it at 9:03 ish. And then it finally showed up. I already loaded up my E-Shop account with $40 prior (learned my lesson in the past, to not try to buy a game at midnight, that part always crashes).

 

[Salsa]

FASTERRRR

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Slow download.

 

[Hypemaster]

Yes I'm finally in there!

Do I just click download later and then close it?

 

[A Human Becoming]

Every time I get into the shop and press the Smash icon, it gives me an error saying that the eShop has updated and needs to restart. The heck?

That's happened to me twice now. Might try turning the system off next.

Come home eShop, you're drunk.

Edit: And I'm through! It might take all night. I'll play later this morning, sleep now.

 

[Durden77]

DOWNLOADING NOW!

But my stupid router for some reason hates my 3DS and I have to use download later, and it usually hitches.

HURRY!!!

Same here.

Yeah, I just reset mine, so all I can do now is keep my fingers crossed.

 

[Coppanuva]

Error codes dammit!

 

[deadcelledo]

fall faster beads!

 

[Fandangox]

That's a lot of possible coffee and pastries...

I will just buy a bunch of maria cookies befoehand

 

[Pikma]

How do you track percentages?

You gotta choose the "Download Later" option, then click on it's icon on the Home menu, you can see the download % there.

 

[Waylon Drums]

My eshop keeps loading, I select Smash Bros... "Nintendo Eshop has Updated, must reset"

Every fucking time. This isn't the first digital release in history so I don't know why we're still dealing with the same old bullshit.

 

[Japanmanx3]

Error Code 011-3139 is my most hated error code ever!!!!!

 

[PreyingShark]

Do I just click download later and then close it?

Yep! That's all you have to do.

 

[Parham]

Restart your 3DS. That fixed it for me.

 

[Crocodile]

Well it's finally time

I'll pick up the game this afternoon when I walk/bus over to my local store

 

[hpkomic]

Downloading now.

It begins.

 

[Lazulic]

After 2 restarts, we in there.

 

[Hale-XF11]

I'm guessing this will be about 45 minutes.

 

[wiibomb]

there was a thread for the lauch in the nintendo world store right? with pics and all... can someone link it to me? I cannot find it

 

[Serrato]

YES IT'S DOWNLOADING

DIRECT IN MY VEINS

[SmithnCo]

Can't wait to spam Shulk's english taunts

 

[RetroMG]

For those getting the "information has been updated, will now restart" error, try going in through the wish list if you have in on there. Worked for me.

 

[GamerKingFaiz]

You gotta choose the "Download Later" option, then click on it's icon on the Home menu, you can see the download % there.

Ah, thanks. I thought it only downloaded while in sleep mode when you did Download Later?

Or did you time yourself and then check the percentage?

 

[friskykillface]

FINALLY, its started

[Eyeshield1625]

Error codes :-(. Wish I hadn't decided to get this at the last minute. Maybe this isn't ment to be.

 

[javadoze]

The download is actually going better than expected. Now at 1/4 or so.

 

[Bullza2o]

Good thing there's a baseball game right now to lessen the stress of waiting!

 

[jorgejjvr]

[Chaotic-Strike]

I swear it's been sitting at the same spot for the past 10 minutes.

 

[3DShovel]

Downloading now. #itshappening

 

[Tirod]

For those getting the "eshop must restart" prompt, try searching the key word "smash" in the search bar instead of clicking on the smash promo button. I got through to purchase it then.

 

[AdanVC]

I haven't been able to connect for hours now. Welcome, non-connected amigo. Welcome.

DAMN IT! And I was planning to go to the eShop and decide there if I will get it digitally or go physical tomorrow since I didn't make any preorders... looks like I will go physical. Hope I can find a copy tomorrow without preorder
