Pokemon Y 1.2 eShop Update Issue

Hi, everyone.

I recently finished playing through the main story of Pokemon Y, and am just starting to try to trade and raise what will hopefully be perfect Pokemon. However, due to a recent update for Pokemon Y (version 1.2, I think) my version is outdated, and thus I cannot connect to the internet. However, when I go to to the eShop (to try to install the 1.2 update) I get the error code "005-4240". It reads:

"An error has occurred. Please try again later.

If this problem persists, please visit support.nintendo.com."

I went to Nintendo's support section, and it says this update only occurs when the eShop is down or going through maintenance. I've had this error for the entire day, though, so is it a problem on my end or what? Any help you guys can give me will be appreciated. Thanks!

Also ya either Gamefreak or Nintendo is forcing Pokemon Players to get the 1.2 update before going online, since this will fix the 'hacking/exploit' that was going on few weeks back.[/quote]

Thanks for letting me know!
