I know, it was a knee-jerk reaction to trade it in so fast towards the New 3DS XL. I was not thinking straight and I completely forgot about system transfer and all of my downloaded games. My e-shop was linked to my Nintendo Network ID, so I changed the password in hopes of it being deactivated on the old 3DS XL I traded in.
My question is this: Is there a way to unlink my NNID from the old 3DS XL? I know it will say it is activated on another system when I try to log in on the N3DS, and I am fully aware that my saves are lost (which really only consisted of New Leaf and Chibi-Robo, all of my other games are cartridge-based). I just wanna be able to redownload the games I purchased when the N3DS comes out. Does calling Nintendo and requesting an unlink work? Has anyone had this kind of experience? I really don't wanna purchase New Leaf or Chibi-Robo again. I can't be the only person who ran into this issue ;n;
Thanks in advance.
