   I wish there was an option in eShop to display an "other" field for the buyers country. Including the list of every possible country in the world is far to cumbersome for my application. Basically I have only digital items for the time being, and while I want to capture buyers country information for statisitcal purposes, I do not want to list every country.

   Basically, I want to simplify things, so rather than having to separately define a shipping zone for every country aside from canada and the US, I just want one option for "International", with a field for the user to enter their country, just as there is a field for "other" province/state, etc...
   As it is, I have had the limit the country listing to just the US and Canada, which might perplex some people who will think they can't make a download purchase because of that.

   I won't be adding a separate field for other country - perhaps you could add international as an option?

   That's what I have done but that's really a suboptimal solution as it does not allow me to collect accurate customer info.

   Any reason why you wouldn't want to add this option?

   OIC. That's unfortunate.
