I don't see anyway how to. I was hoping you could myself. It's stupid to have to buy funds separately for each.

It would work if 3DS had the network accounts to begin with.

No. But it should - would be nice if Nintendo actually used an account-based system for their products (hell, they even have Club Nintendo accounts which they could use as a base). It could work easily the way PSN accounts and balances work across the PSP/PS3/Vita.

A few months ago a Nintendo customer service rep said that the 3DS and Wii U will be getting a unified eShop account system. We just don't know when exactly.

"A unified account system will be implemented later this year with the launch of the Wii U. Eventually this same account system will be made compatible with Nintendo 3DS systems. At this time we have no additional details to offer and nothing to indicate how or if this will work outside the United States and Canada. In the meantime, if the system has a problem, taking it to an Authorized Service Center will maintain the Nintendo eShop account. If the system is stolen, we can transfer the account to a new system once we are provided with a valid police report." -- NoC customer service member, David Marshall
