I don't believe that is possible unless you create a new NNID on your 2DSXL and buy another set of games for that.
The biggest difference to account systems on other platforms is that you have to do a system transfer to use your account on another 3DS or WiiU.

Thanks! That's okay, I figured I'd have to make a new account.

Maybe I have sensitive eyes but it's pretty noticeable to me but yeah, the 3DS screens suck anyway, especially after playing on the Switch handheld style.

Played it a bit.

It's okay. Not terribly difficult so far or engaging.

It's 2d pikmin, basically.

Yeah its a nice enjoyable game to unwind with about tough battles in Splatoon 2. It feels like it has better designed then New Yoshi'd Island. I like that Olimar still has his wit when naming and describing treasure. I feel like if you liked Kirby Mass Attack then you will Like Hey Pikmin

Re: SMT4A, what are DDS Titles? Are they basically achievements or bragging rights to display on your Streetpass? I'm currently plugging away at SMT4 and I was pretty much just going to beat it once and move on to the superior game. Also, I live in East Bumfuck, USA, and I never got a SMT4 Streetpass once.

I wonder what you actually unlock then by completing the game more than once. :thunk:

At least nobody is calling for a boycott or starting a Change.Org petition over it at least.

Aww that sucks, I hope there's a different hard mode that doesn't require the squishy amiibo

At least the amiibo availability problem can be solved with a phone and a $1 NFC tag.

Took Nintendo more than a decade to rerelease the gba e-reader levels for Mario 3 Advance.

Yeah you've got it right. Apocalypse does let you get 10 Streetpass hits online every like two hours of game time at least.

What I don't get is why Nintendo doesn't offer a I-Am-An-Adult version of Amiibo. Cheaper, without the toy, just the data. They already do cards for some things, why not do it entirely.

I mean, the last time they let you use the Fusion suit, you needed a gameboy advance, a link cable, and a copy of Fusion.

I don't really have an issue with the Amiibo implementation either.
