So my daughter now has her heart set on this

I tried ordering via address pal as they don't ship to Ireland from Nintendo UK and they don't ship to addresspal

Don't suppose anyone knows of a way to get my hands on one?

Why doesn't Nintendo UK ship to Ireland

I’ve bought loads off Nintendo’s Uk store and used parcel motel. Including a pokeball DS. So not sure why you are having an issue with it.

This is what I got from them unless it's a new thing

The same reason they don't let us enter any competitions. They're (¥#£$! You select a region on Nintendo and it says "UK&Ireland", their Twitter page says "Welcome to Nintendo's official UK/Eire Twitter." But when it comes to practise, they do sod all. What competitions are Irish residents supposed to enter? I've had orders cancelled from Nintendo UK, it's a bit of a lottery, if they notice that you're forwarding on to Ireland they'll cancel the order. They don't do any advertising or promotion in Ireland.

Addresspal has worked for me the last 10 orders and as recently as yesterday. I always pay with Paypal, maybe that makes a difference. I even had to contact Nintendo's live chat about updating the address of Addresspal since they changed it and nothing came up, it was shipped yesterday.

That's just bizarre, I paid via PayPal too and used my revolut card on there as I thought I was being extra certain by paying in gbp with a card that's viewed as British

Maybe I'll try again tonight. Thanks!

Bought the mine craft ds2 in GameStop in cork on Dec 8th as a Santa present . When opened on Christmas morning it only had a 2 pin adaptor to charge it so has been charging in the shaving socket since. Really pissed off about this as paid €170 for it. Anyone have similar happen? My son already has wiiu and that charger won't fit

Argos in cork Queens old castle and cork retail park both have 2 of the official 2ds charger

Thank you but surely the correct charger should come with it?

They probably had them shipped in from another branch in Europe somewhere go back in tomorrow and ask for the irish/uk charger if they mess you about just buy the argos one as they're getting difficult to find now as the 3ds is no longer made and a spare official charger is a wise purchase I have 4 consoles with 2 official chargers between them. Love my 3ds and 2ds great little things to have.
