Anyone else get Kung Fu Rabbit off the eshop, it's $3.25, fun decent little platfomer, worth the low price tag. It is the same game from iphones, android, etc.

Also Monster Hunter 3 is half price, but in AUS that is $35, which I am sure I could find a second hand copy for a similar price.

Oh, so that's what that game is? I kept seeing that character's head in the Miiverse thing and didn't know what it was. If it's only $3.25 then I'll have to check it out. Apparently I just need to spend 1 more cent to get a $5 credit on the eShop (the Wind Waker download counted, says the internet).

I just looked up Kung Fu Rabbit, it says it's on sale for $2.49 from $4.99.

Just got off the line with Nintendo support. Turns out they will transfer all content (both Wii and Wii U) + saves. In short, you'll need to furnish Nintendo Support with a few tidbits to verify your account...serials, etc. Obviously this method is far more cumbersome than dealing with PSN and XBL data retrieval, but hey, it's a start. The only caveat is both Wii U systems must be shipped in order to do the save swap, but the transfer of Nintendo IDs, Wii U eShop, and Virtual Console (Wii and Wii U) content can be switched with a fairly brief phone call.

Hopefully this answers a few questions. :)

Well, I don't have the serial of my old system so I guess I'm boned?

The person I talked to flat out said they wouldn't do it.

:lol: I JUST sent you a PM. Nintendo should be able to retrieve your old account for you, especially if your Club Nintendo account is linked.

::EDIT:: Honestly....I'm not too sure. We all know how Nintendo is with their online component.

Yeah my Club Nintendo is linked to that account. We shall see.

OH, for those of you wanting Splinter Cell Blacklist, Best Buy has it for $45 on sale in stores right now.
