Buying digital games?

[Dasbreenee]

Is there a way I can purchase a NA copy of Majoras Mask online, like from nintendos site?
I can't buy it from the eshop because I have American Express and discover credit cards. Both of which are not accepted.

Looks like I can't buy it there either.
Only MasterCard and visa. Nintendo hates me.

What payment method were you hoping to use? o.o Most credit/debit cards these days tend to be Mastercards or Visas, so I'm a little confused - were you thinking something along the lines of Paypal?

Nintendo eShop doesn't currently support PayPal, so MasterCard and Visa credit cards are the only way to add funds without using prepaid eShop cards. Heck, even ordering any physical version of a game online usually always requires using, often supporting the aforementioned credit card companies.

Unless you're lucky enough to find an online store that supports American Express and/or Discover cards and sells Majora's Mask 3D, you're definitely going to have an hard time finding one if not impossible.

I think you can either buy it from Nintendo.com or Gamestop.com.

No. I was hoping maybe nintendos site supported American Express.
The Amex card is actually the most carried credit card. So I'm not entirely sure why they wouldn't accept it.
I ended up leaving the house and just got eshop credit.
I hurt my back very badly to the point where I couldn't walk. So I couldn't go out and buy it. When I finally got to the store physical copies were all gone. So I had to go with digital. Haha.
Thanks everyone anyways!

You'll have to buy the Nintendo eShop card unfortunately. I've never bought one but I know here in Canada they charge tax on top of it. Its like buying a prepaid credit card, I pay about $22-$24 for a $20 prepaid card. Not the best solution but it works.

Lol the most carried card but Amex & Discover are hardly accepted anywhere. Mastercard + Visa = everywhere.

Discover Is accepted at more places than AE. But it's because American Express charges a higher swipe fee than all others.
