    This video was very helpful, just not how you would think. When I peeled off the sticker the first letter was un readable, I knew that the first 3 letters are the same on a lot of the cards. The card you used at the beginning had the same first 3 letters.

    My problem seems to be a little unique:
    I bought two Nintendo prepaid cards.
    The second one I was able to cash in no problem.
    But the first one keeps giving me the same error message when I put in the code.
    When I checked to see what the error code means it talks about problems with the servers, the thing is.
    Everything I checked, (including the site provided in this video)
    Says that they are having no maintenance issues.
    I even tried, putting in a random series of digits to see if it would even give me the normal response for an incorrect code.
    (it did by the way)
    Edit:
    I forgot to add that this is been going on for a couple of days now, and I have tried turning off and on the consul without the issue being fixed.

      The region the code was bought needs to match the region of your account. You can't change an account region. You have to set up a new account in the card's region.
