With the North American release of Senran Kagura Burst coming up on November 14th we wanted to put together another Buyer’s Guide to help those planning to pick it up. When purchasing from the Nintendo eShop you have a couple of methods available to make your purchase. The easiest method is to just use your debt/credit card to make the purchase through the eShop. Your other option is to purchase a Nintendo eShop Card that will add the credit to your account. The cards are sold at all major online and local retailers, including many gas stations and convenience stores such as Speedway. If for some reason you wanted to order a card and have it shipped to you, it would be best to use an online retailer such as Best Buy, rather than Amazon as their prices are higher than the retail value of the card. Senran Kagura Burst will retail at $29.99 on the eShop and depending on the state you live in you may have to pay tax. So if you want to use an eShop card, you will want to purchase one for at least $35. Senran Kagura Burst will take approximately 2GB on your SD Card or 14,582 blocks, so you may have to purchase another one. Luckily, SD Cards are relatively inexpensive compared to other forms of memory. They are sold at most major retailers locally and online, so they are not difficult to find. I would suggest purchasing it from Amazon where you can get a 16GB card for under $13, but they have smaller cards for even cheaper. I hope this has been helpful, please let me know if you have any questions! Let’s all be sure to support Senran Kagura by purchasing Burst on November 14th!

I think you're fine... But just to be safe, you should probably get a bigger card or something. I think you'll be right at the limit. If Gamefaq's is correct, 1 GB is 8,192 blocks. So you'll probably have a tiny bit of space left over.

In all seriousness, Nintendo should really get rid of the blocks system and use the regular memory system. .__.

Like I said yeah it is not as helpful as pure memory. How much is 1.78 GB in blocks? 128kb = 1 block 1mb = 8 blocks 1gb = 8,192 blocks 1.78gb = (approx) 14,582 blocks Okay, I can use the rest of my 4GB SD card for SKB then. =) I'll just get a bigger one when I get more spare money. How much space do you have as this size is off the JPN version the NA version will most likely be bigger plus you will want to leave about 5% of space on a memory device so if you have over 15500 you will be fine.

I'm getting ill, I since this game will not do good so much maths for an impulse buy. Why Nintendo?

Heh, how many blocks will Senran Kagura Burst require? (3DS in hand ) How about this Senran Kagura is for older teens like 16 and thus will require 16k blocks

I brought Tekken 5 and Burnout takedown I think it was on impulse. and a few other games. and xseed even got the price down. Reggie plz

I really hope this game does well. Not only because I want Versus over here as well, which actually wouldn't matter to me since I don't have a Vita, but a great game like this shouldn't go unnoticed. Somebody get nintendo to talk about it on nintendo direct. Or even show a trailer on TV or as a Youtube ad, idk. The word needs to get out.

Oh good, got enough memory space for SK Burst. The only thing left is the cost of buying it in here at Canada.
