I heard that the SA update was not out yet and that you had to select UK as your region. Is that still true? Thanks.

"Please note; the Nintendo eShop feature's launch is not yet confirmed for South Africa.
Please note that in order to use the Nintendo eShop you will be required to perform a system update of your Nintendo 3DS system."

Yup, I did it this morning. Nintendo's website still does not list Africa anywhere on there site. Chose UK, can hopefully change it to SA when we are up and running without any hassles.
