Made an account just say I'm getting this too on same new 3ds xl 9.2.0.20 e any word from smealum?
An unhacked aus 3ds would work fine in Europe it's pretty much the same model that will eventually be released in Europe just saying. Also no reports of anything higher than 9.2 yet mine was 9.0 and bought on release date.
The EU and AU games are the same, as are the consoles.
So yes you should have no problem using EU games if you bought a console from here (Aus).
i personally don't like play-asia but they seem to be my only option,they charge customers too much........
(and uk is not my actual country,and i have to pay like 70-80 US dollars more to the customs and shit,f*ck me :| )
