    Personally I'll be getting Animal Crossing; I already have LM2 and Fire Emblem with LEGO City on the way this week. I think this is a fantastic promotion and really demonstrates a sentiment that Nintendo, at least in Europe, is doubling down on the 3DS to help carry them through their current troubles.

    If you're in the EU and are taking advantage of this offer, what will you get?

    I have MH3U and will be getting Animal Crossing. You're saying if I get Fire Emblem or Luigi's Mansion I can get the other game free? Holy sheet.

    Since I already have LM2 and Fire Emblem, I'll probably buy Donkey Kong or Animal Crossing (whichever is cheaper) and then download the other one.

    FYI:

    "To participate in the promotion, you have to be at least 16 years of age and a resident of the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Portugal, Switzerland or Russia."

    Anyone knows if its possible to bypass this? I don't have 3ds yet, just curious.

    @forcen: 3DS's are region-locked, so I'd guess it's impossible.

    They need to run this shit here too. I already own Monster Hunter, and registered someone else's Luigi's Mansion. Animal Crossing will put me into the running. Bastards!

    I would try and do this, however I bought Monster hunter 3 U on Eshop and I simply cannot register my 3DS for it to pick that up, while I bought Fire Emblem on cart. Cool for those in the position tho.

    Monster Hunter was only published by Nintendo in Europe/Australia. It wouldn't be eligible for Nintendo's promotion if it were to come to North America.

    Well then, what a strange reason for me to finally try Fire Emblem.

    Would be nice if they had that in Europe and not in 1/5 of Europe.

    That's great, thanks for the information! I already own Luigi's Mansion, MH3 and Fire Emblem... hm, maybe I'll get Castlevania, I didn't think it looked as bad as everyone made it out to be, and the demo was pretty alright. Then again, I'll probably get Donkey Kong Country at some point, so maybe I'll just wait for that.
