Title: 3DS Guide Louvre question??
Post by: Madducky on February 26, 2015, 09:19:43 PM
I just picked this title up and, WOW it's good, highly recommended, educational and fun!

My question is this; Does anybody else here have the retail packaged card version? The case is very similar to the standard 3DS case, but it is a little thicker. All other signs and marks point to it being a legit release, it had a Nintendo security band imbedded in the wrapper, a price tag from the Louvre gift shop, and the game slides in just fine and has taken an update successfully on my US 3DS.

Do Euro 3DS games come in a thicker case?

Yes, very slightly.  EU 3ds case is pretty much the same thickness as US NDS case.

Wow.  Very jealous - I'd *love* to have a physical version of this.

For anyone interested, you can download the digital version from the eShop.

I didn't want the download version.
I got a friend of a friend of a friend that was in Paris to snag me one.

Uncle bob, my partner will be in Paris is May, and almost certainly do the rounds at the louvre.  Let me know if you still want a copy.

Just been told they have no US COPIES, AND NO EU FRENCH OR ENGLISH,  I will see if they have Scandinavia ones for you Arseen.

How did I miss this thread?

Ugh.

I do still want one, but only in English. :(


The good thing is, they're region free - so any English copy would do.

Boo. Nintendo makes a cartridge that is only for sale at one place on the entire planet - they should make extra effort to make sure it's always in stock. :(

We went to the Louvre during our honeymoon last fall. They actually rent out 3DSs with headphones and this guide. I did't know if was their official guide, otherwise I would've definitely downloaded it beforehand and brought my own 3DS with me.

So if you are going to the Louvre, get this before you go!

I had no idea that these would become hard to get!
You would think that both the Louvre and Nintendo would demand to keep it in stock at the gift shop.
I hope that The Louvre Guide is not out of print!! This is easily one of the coolest things Nintendo has done.
