Universo Nintendo is reporting today that Nintendo has started to restrict purchases on the eShop from other countries where gamers can purchase the digital games at a lower price than their own country, such as Argentina and Turkey. The editor in chief of the publication has posted a screenshot of a error message he received from Nintendo Argentina that the payment method or credit card needs to be issued by that particular country. Users will be greeted with error code 2813-2470 if they try to purchase something from the Argentinian eShop without having a bank card or gift card registered for that particular country.
“The payment methods available for making purchases in the Nintendo eShop in a particular country may be restricted to payment methods or credit cards issued in that country. For example, a credit card issued in Mexico will not work in the Nintendo eShop in Argentina.”
