Hello there,
I know this's tired topic already, but I wasn't able to find a solution reading these forums, nor I received any help from Nintendo.
So I've successfully received a SMT4/FEA promo code, but wasn't able to reedem it, 3DS says:
Error Code: 007-1205. This activation number cannot be used with your current region setting. Please check the number and try entering again.
My 3DS regions settings are set to US, FL, my Club Nintendo account location settings and therefore 3DS eShop account settings linked with it are set to US, FL as well. I've tried to enter the same code several times for the past week -- same result. Geographically I'm outside of the US right now, but I doubt 3DS is checking that.
For the sake of curiosity I tried enetring the number in Menu > Settings / Other > Redeem Download Code, but predictably I got the following message:
Error Code: 007-1214. This code you entered is for a Nintendo Prepaid Card and cannot be used here.
The instructions to redeem the promo code says it clearly to do it through Menu > Add Funds > Redeem a Nintendo Prepaid Card anyway.
Since I wasn't able to resolve the problem for myself, I've contacted Nintendo via e-mail, but haven't received any repsonces yet, though it looks like someone was messing with my Club Nintendo account after all. I receive several e-mail "Confirmation for Digital Order" yesterday. Unfortunately all of them were empty, no code after the words:
Thank you for your order. Please print a copy of this email for your records. Your download code/ticket number appears below.
Of course, I still got the actual order notification e-mail with the code. So what should I do now? Should I call Nintendo?
Thanks in advance for all the help.
