I'm not sure if there's a better thread for this question, but just out of curiosity...is it possible to transfer data from one 3DS to another? I ordered the bundle online but it probably won't come in the mail until the middle of next week (boo) and I really want to play NL on release day...if I had a different 3DS and downloaded it from the eShop would I be able to to transfer all of my NL data to the bundle 3DS XL a few days later?

I did a quick google search but all I could find was about transferring other data (not like, NL save data which is what i'd want so I wouldn't have to start over.) Probably a dumb question but, I haven't had any type of DS since the DS Lite I think so this is totally a shot in the dark haha

Actually, you can transfer everything from your old 3DS (including ACNL) to your new system with System Transfer. Since the new 3DS is ACNL Limited Edition, you'd ultimately end up wasting $35 to transfer your ACNL's saved data, because your old 3DS won't have the game anymore. I'd rather wait for the bundle to arrive and then start playing.

Thank you so much! It's pretty bad that i'm actually considering doing this and losing the $35 to be able to play on the release day...I suppose that's not the smart option though. :P Thanks though!

Well, in fact, my digital Japanese copy of the game is weighing down to 5,655 blocks. The American version is reported to occupy around 6,002 blocks.
 
I believe it can be easily explained because it has to store 3 different languages, included the v1.1 patch and HHA SpotPass feature. I can tell that the European version is going to eat more blocks than the American version.
 
im getting the bundle but my current 3ds xl has a 32gb sd card in it. should i transfer everything first to the new 3ds, copy the files from the 4gb sd card to my computer then transfer them onto the 32gb sd card? then i should be able to redownload NL from the eshop? idk if that made any sense but yeah. i dont wanna screw it up. ^^

No. Do a system transfer before you do anything to your bundle (obviously switch it on to check it works and to access the system transfer section lol). During the transfer, the system initialises your 32Gb SD for use in the new 3DS, so when the transfer is complete, stick your 32Gb in the new XL and everything transfers over. Then download NL for free as the system retains the memory of having NL already installed whilst keeping the memory of the old console's eShop too. You can then do whatever you like with the 4Gb that came with the console as it'll be formatted.

EDIT: Nothing will be on the 4Gb anyway so don't worry about that!
 
In the latest gamexplain review they said that we are not able to send letters to our friends when we visit their town. Is this true?

Also, ive heard we can not send letters to friends using spotpass either. But somewhere else ive read we can...

Can some one clear this up for me? ^^;

The only way to post a letter to your friend is, when your in their town and you go to their post office to send it. You can not send them through spotpass

That really sucks, spotpass seems like it was made for the purpose of sending AC letters and gifts to friends over wi-fi. No idea why they decided against it. =(

Well, the best friend feature kind of makes up for it. But I did enjoy sending letters to friends and saving the ones I received at the post office. Maybe it'll be brought back with a future update.
 
A little update and question
I have 35 fossils 31 fishes and 20 bugs so far the question is is there season certain bugs come out or times? I need ten at least to get the silver tools.

Certain bugs and fish only come at during certain seasons and at certain times.
