How are people already playing the game?

There is a beta version available for download in Australia and New Zealand.
 
I was gonna try to go through all that stuff just to play it but then I thought... eh, not worth it.

Though it would be kinda cool to play it in advance.



But I think that when the game is released you have to start from scratch if you plan on downloading it in your region.

Maybe I'll just wait until it's released
 
Huh I thought it had been released everywhere. Usually Australia is the last to get anything
 
Yeah people are posting downloads, the one someone posted here is safe and i got it that way. Been posting screenies and stuff on imgur and each time I do a few more people ask if it's out yet. XD
 
I'll try that, but will there be any notifications/emails or something popping up for making a new Apple ID? My parents would get pretty suspicious if I made a new one...

I don't think they'd see it actually since you have to have to create a new email address to make the new Apple ID. You have to log your current Apple ID out of your device, then go to the App Store and try downloading a free app.. the phone will say you have to log in.. that's where you choose to create a new Apple ID using a different email address. So you'd need to create like a gmail account or something. It can't be tied to your current Apple ID in any way (i.e. can't use the same email).

If anything they might see that you logged out of your phone... but I don't think they'd see the new account... The worse that might happen is if they use "Find my Friends" or something to track your location .. they'd see you as constantly "offline" which might raise some suspicions. :O

Thanks, but I decided not to do it. If I were to do all this and get the game, once the official game releases I'll have to delete my data to get the official thing (can't tie my Nintendo account to the game as it's a different region).
 
I was pleasantly surprised to learn that once you've downloaded the app using your Aussie Apple ID, you can sign back into your device with your normal Apple ID and still play the game. It even recognizes me when I log in and shows the Game Center notification. :O I'm sure I'll still have to start over once it's officially released, but I'm still enjoying it while I'm killing time at work. I don't like to bring my 3DS to work with me so having AC on the phone is a welcome distraction.

Another person told me that you won't need to loose your data, you can change the country in the app and connect your Nintendo account to it.
 
i'm so tempted to make an Australian apple ID just because i can keep my progress even after it's released in NA but i'm so stuck whether to just wait or do it lol
