Does DQH have any English options?
Great news - thanks.
Looking forward to hearing confirmation of an English language option in JP Disgaea!

I just want to be sure of one thing.
The deleting of funds if you change your location is if say I have a US account, and change it to japan.
It would not affect making a Na account and a Seperate JP account correct?

I am also in the UK, so I was just assuming I could do that for dollars and yen for foreign purchases, but another poster said paypal doesn't work, so I'm really confused now

Nope. The teams porting games currently over at KT seem to hate language options altogether.

I thought the wallet cap was nearer to €200? Though that said the daily limit on how much funds can be added is about €100 (I don't get why Nintendo don't say that anywhere...I managed a few years ago to technically overdraw due to pending charges it would still take).
All your funds get deleted if you do it this way. Don't ask me why either. At least they grant the option I suppose.

I believe when you launch any game or eshop, it will ask you which account you want to use for that particular game/eshop
Won't work, you gotta have a verified US paypal account to buy USA gift card from paypal, and to have that verified account you need a legit US credit card
That's what it looks like.
Since I have a JP NNID acct already that I was using for my JP 3DS and Wii U, I'm set. I just hope my credit card still works the same as it did for them, too.

Exchange rates being in a constant flux means that eShop balance manipulation is a possibility. It'd be a complicated issue that none of the major digital storefronts want to touch.

Dang. Thanks
Well, I doubt that is what they're implying.
More what the Microsoft Account system does where you can have different, individual balances for every country.

That sucks...
Still, I'm really tempted to buy DQH1+2 now. I know 1 pretty well and I could probably fumble my way through 2...

I probably missed it, but I can be kind of slow lol.
If I want all I have to do is make sure my eshop funds are at $0 and I can still take that account and change it to a different region. I wouldn't have to worry about it deleting all my funds since I made sure the balance was zero.

Hmm. There's no way to currently see all digital content tied to account right?
Great account system...
I'm ok with one account per region compromise though... best would be you don't lose it but maybe can only access one region at a time

Have they stated if previous purchases will carry over? As in from the virtual console?
Isn't it possible to have multiple local accounts tied to the same NNID/email address?
edit: nvm, answered already
That's how everything is priced in the US, at every store, retail or digital. You always have to add taxes to the advertised price. Tax is never included in the listed price.
Although the states of
Delaware
Montana
New Hampshire
Oregon
have no state sales tax. Alaska doesn't have a sales tax either, but some cities in Alaska do.
So if you're from outside the US. Keep those no tax states in mind when creating a US account.
yeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssssssssss FINALLY!
Just made my Japanese account! Gonna get that linked to my Switch as soon as I receive it.
It's kind of off topic, but does anyone know if there's a section on the eShop for themes? The option to change themes is right there in the settings menu, but I haven't seen any mention of whether there'll be additional ones available for download at launch.

Are there any pictures or video of Japanese demo downloading? Is it easy to get around? What does the "download demo" text look like in Japanese?

Someone said you just go to wherever you create a Nintendo account online is at and it'll ask you to pick a region as you're creating it.

I would understand if this was the Wii Shop with its pretend money although they only ever implemented fund wiping <> Australia (which was annoying for Australians because so many things did not release there) despite the issue for any country.
I'd also understand if they had not already had the solution of separate wallet for each country on the 3DS eShop.

Thanks. I can wait a week.
Gamexplain needs to do a video of buying on multiple region accounts.
So I have a Nintendo account configured to Canada. It is linked with my NNID that is also Canadian because the Wii U/3DS eShop wouldn't let me use my Peruvian credit card but the Canadian eShop did.
My question is: Can I change my Nintendo account region to USA without unlinking my NNID or both Nintendo Account and NNID have to be from the same region?

Perfect! There's much more money on this launch than I expected. If the full game has an English option and I can buy the game with my CC I'll buy it asap!
Edit: This is such a great feature - thanks for all you've done Cheesemeister (even if I'm not exactly sure what it was you did

This is ironic in that the hardest titles to find supported language info for are the first party titles as in you can't just do it on the NCL website (because first party titles have minisites rather than summary pages). The eShop listing should furnish info but that requires being able to read the page rather than have google translate do it for you.
Really? That is not what NCL says:
https://ec.nintendo.com/JP/ja/titles/70010000000035
I guess that could be another thing to considering is the listing info being wrong
Sorry for the misinformation. It's been a rather long day. I meant Disgaea 5 Complete.
Once again, sorry for the confusion.
Sweet. I might jump on it tomorrow and double confirm.
