Shipping to the Philippines
Shipping €11.00 — your parcel leaves the Netherlands.
Order more than one and you share the shipping: one parcel, priced by weight — a second game adds only a little.
Goods worth up to ₱10,000 (shipping not counted) arrive without duty or tax. Above ₱10,000, Philippine customs charges 12% VAT and, depending on the item, import duty; PHLPost collects it before handing over the parcel, with a handling fee — none of this is included in the price at checkout.
Shipping to the Philippines
- Small parcel (games or a handheld), tracked

- Parcel (home console or larger order), tracked

- Delivery time
- 11-23 business days
We ship from the Netherlands: your parcel crosses the world, so it takes longer and costs more than a domestic delivery. Goods worth up to ₱10,000 (shipping not counted) arrive without duty or tax. Above ₱10,000, Philippine customs charges 12% VAT and, depending on the item, import duty; PHLPost collects it before handing over the parcel, with a handling fee — none of this is included in the price at checkout.
You pay in Philippine pesos — credit card or PayPal. The amount at checkout is what your card or PayPal is charged, at our fixed shop rate; your bank converts nothing.
Why does shipping to the Philippines cost more than at home?
Inside the Netherlands a single game fits in a small tracked packet for €6.37. To the Philippines that same tracked packet costs from €11.00. The difference is the route: halfway around the world, through Philippine customs, and with PHLPost for the last stretch — PostNL charges for every step of it.
That amount covers the PostNL rate plus the packaging: a padded mailer or box, an antistatic sleeve for the cartridge, and tape. Several games share one parcel, priced by weight — a second game adds only a little. We never drop the tracking: on a parcel that travels halfway around the world, shipping without proof of delivery is a risk for both of us.
Without you there would be nothing to grow. Every order that comes in here is the reason this shop can get bigger — and the reason I can keep doing this.

More about this item
About this product
Pokemon Moon for Nintendo 3DS — a classic from the Pokémon series, among the most sought-after Nintendo games there are.
Generation 7 on Nintendo 3DS. Explore Alola, complete the Island Trials and catch the moon-devouring Lunala.
Cartridge cleaned and tested on original hardware, ready to play. Clear signs of use on the item, described honestly — the game works perfectly.
The Nintendo 3DS came out in 2011: autostereoscopic 3D screen, StreetPass, backwards compatible with DS games. On the original cartridge the game runs the way it was meant to — and keeps working for years to come.
Who is this for? Anyone who would rather play on a real Nintendo 3DS than in an emulator — collectors who want the original in their hands, and players who simply want that feeling back.
What to know before buying a Pokémon game: Pokémon cartridges are the most counterfeited game cartridges in the world. We check every copy ourselves — the label and the product code on the back — so you know for sure you are getting an original, not a fake. In doubt? Send us a message and we will take extra photos for you.
Nintendo 3DS games are region-locked: this European (PAL) edition plays on a European (PAL) Nintendo 3DS — check the region of your console, or ask us in the chat. Every item passes our authenticity check (shell, board, Nintendo markings) and a function test — you're buying 100% original Nintendo.
Shipped from the Netherlands with PostNL tracking to the Philippines: from €11.00; no duty or tax on goods up to ₱10,000. 30-day returns.

Seen it cheaper elsewhere?
For most titles there’s also a private listing online, sometimes a little cheaper. The difference isn’t in the title, but in the copy itself and in everything around it.
- Does it work?
- Here: Has been running here — save and label checked — before it went online.
- Private seller: ‘Works’ in the photo. You test it yourself, after buying.
- Is it genuine?
- Here: Label, product code on the back, colour and shape of the card, and booting. A reproduction doesn’t get through.
- Private seller: Fakes are a plague with Pokémon and GBA games, and in a photo you can’t tell the difference.
- If it disappoints?
- Here: 30-day returns, and a 12-month warranty that it works.
- Private seller: Usually sold as-is: no returns between private individuals, and a marketplace guarantee only covers an item that isn’t as described — not a change of mind.
- Who’s behind it?
- Here: One person, who has held this game personally and answers your question personally.
- Private seller: Varies per listing.
Why you still remember this
The generation you played when you were really too old for it
You didn’t have time for it any more and you did it anyway — on the train, at lunch, in the evening on the sofa with the TV on. The shop was still right there on the console itself, trading happened with someone on the other side of the world, and somewhere you knew this would probably be your last handheld.
One copy, this copy. The shops on these consoles have closed. Everything you still want from this generation has to be physical from now on.

Compatibility — Nintendo 3DS
Nintendo 3DS cartridges are region-locked (EU/US/JP are separate regions) but work on the whole 3DS family — and those consoles also play DS games through backwards compatibility.
Please note — European (PAL) copy
This is the European (PAL) release. Nintendo 3DS games are region-locked, so this copy plays on a European Nintendo 3DS or a region-free modded one — not on a US (NTSC-U) or Japanese (NTSC-J) Nintendo 3DS. The table below is for European consoles.
| Console | Works? |
|---|---|
| Nintendo 3DS | Yes |
| Nintendo 3DS XL | Yes |
| Nintendo 2DS | Yes |
| New Nintendo 3DS | Yes |
| New Nintendo 3DS XL | Yes |
| New Nintendo 2DS XL | Yes |
- Nintendo 3DS: Native — EU cart on an EU console

Please note
- •3DS games are REGION-LOCKED. Our 3DS games are PAL (EU) — they work on every EU 3DS console, NOT on US/JP ones.
- •DS games also work on every 3DS model (backwards compatible).
How we test Nintendo 3DS games for authenticity
3DS cartridges (2011-2020) have anti-counterfeit security, but fakes exist. We go through these five steps. Every Nintendo 3DS game in our shop goes through this five-step check before it is sold.
Card with a tab + sharp label
A 3DS card has a small protruding tab on the right, so it does not fit in a DS, and a slightly matte, sharply printed label. Glossy or blurry print is suspicious.
Product code CTR-XXXX
On the back: CTR- prefix (the internal codename of the 3DS). CTR-P-ECRP = Omega Ruby EU. No CTR- prefix or a mismatch = fake.
"Nintendo 3DS" branding
The cartridge must say "Nintendo 3DS", NOT "Nintendo DS" or "Nintendo DSi". Fakes often get this wrong.
Start-up test on a 3DS
The cartridge appears as an icon in the 3DS Home menu. An original cartridge gives the cinematic intro. Fakes give "data corrupted" or open a strange launcher.
Region and save test
A European card starts on a European 3DS or 2DS — an American or Japanese one does not, so the region on the label has to match. Then: save, switch off, switch on again; the save must still be there.
What we see with Nintendo 3DS games
Our experience
3DS cartridges can be recognised by the CTR product code and the tab on the side — that tab keeps them out of a DS. Since the eShop closed (March 2023), loose cartridges are the only way left to get 3DS games. We check cartridges with a start-up test, a region check and a save test.
Our tip
3DS cartridges only work on 3DS/2DS systems. NOT backwards compatible to DS systems (it does work the other way round: a 3DS plays DS games). The nicest screen is in the New 3DS XL and the New 2DS XL.
About this specific copy
This copy is in "Acceptable condition" — working, but with visible wear (scratches, signs of use). Our grading is conservative.

About the Nintendo 3DS
The Nintendo 3DS (2011) is the direct successor to the DS and adds a glasses-free 3D effect to the top screen. The platform is fully backwards compatible with all DS games, which means you can effectively play 3,000+ titles. The 3DS eShop closed in March 2023 — since then, physical cartridges are the only way to get new content.
- Fully backwards compatible with all Nintendo DS games.
- The 3D effect can be switched off — it works in 2D for comfort during long sessions.
- The eShop has been closed since March 2023. Physical 3DS cartridges get more expensive every year as supply dwindles.
- Pokémon X/Y, Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon and Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D are the most sought-after titles.
Our tip: 3DS cartridges are rarely counterfeited — the chip technology is too complex. So when buying, pay attention above all to the region (an American cartridge does not start on a European 3DS), the condition and the label quality; we check every copy anyway.
