But if u change ur 3ds' home region to Australia it should work , shouldn't it? I have an European 3DS and I changed mine to Australia. That way I was able to download Alpha sapphire the moment it came out for Australia, before it got released in Europe.
I did the same thing now, and I've noticed on E-shop that Sun and Moon' release date is on the 18th. So doesnt it mean I can purchase it on the 18th? If it worked for ORAS why cant the same happen with Sun and Moon. Am I missing something? :(
