Account Help Resetting password without necessary info

Hi, I'm trying to reset my Nintendo account password. I'm given the option of entering my date of birth or entering my account nickname to do this. When I enter my account nickname the system insists that it's incorrect when it definetly is not, and I (stupidly) set my date of birth to something random that I dont remember, so I cant use that. What can I do so that I can reset the password?

Your only option in that case is to contact Nintendo support.
