Topic: Club Nintendo Rewards. ^_^

I was considering it, but its more of a family game instead of single player

Best year to hit Plat, I'm so glad we didn't get some lame figure.
Downloading Zelda II right now, I been dying to play this game for all year. T-thanks Nintendo...

LOL, wow I have every one of those games except the Wii U Platinum rewards...and that's because I don't have a Wii U. I'll probably just get a DL code for one of those games and sit on it until I buy one in three years.

Although I like the idea of downloads as rewards, the selection should be even wider because chances are that a fan who goes through the survey process and bought enough games to get platinum already has most of what's on offer.

Can't wait to play DKCR3D!

Amazingly, this will only be the 2nd DKC game I've ever played.....the first being the original on SNES. _{pathetic, I know}

people keep writing stuff like ... 'Although I like the idea of downloads as rewards, the selection should be even wider because chances are that a fan who goes through the survey process and bought enough games to get platinum already has most of what's on offer.'

not sure what they base it on ...

I got platinum, had 2 of the 16 games already ...

I still found the single player enjoyable, especially Gamer, Shutter, and Design.
_{I also liked Ski, but no one else does...}

@Klimbatize You can give me your Game & Wario code so I don't have to choose between it and DKCR. I was really hoping for some worthless trinkets this year. I guess this will do.

Downloading it now. Thanks. Don't know when I'll play it though...

If I wanted one of the few games I don't have, I'd pay $10 for them. I won't buy a single nintendo product until smash bros 3ds comes out.

These are the games I didn't have from the list:

Game & Wario
Dr. Luigi
Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D
Fluidity: Spin Cycle
Dillon's Rolling Western
Wario Land II

I just about jumped on DKCR, but I think I read somewhere that it's 17,000 blocks? Is that right? Meh, I do already have the Wii version.
Question for everyone: IF you didn't have any of these games on any system, which one would you get?

I can actually get Earthbound... this is awesome!!!

what you didn't have $10 before? You must have spent more than that getting platinum.

It just annoys me that they had physical rewards planned. The elite status page clearly said, All rewards will ship by December 2015.
Seriously? It just bugs me that we could have had a good reward, but instead they couldn't do it because I assume too many people went platinum. Ugh.
I really would love to see a third tier, at 1000 coins. It would be exclusive, yes, but still reward their biggest fans a little more. Because getting 600 coins is easier than ever right now. And will most likely only get easier.
I do appreciate the free game however, but I'm already platinum for the next few years. Would love to splurge in one year and get something great, but I'll take a game.

They are basing it on their direct experience, which is just as valid as yours.

I own almost every game from the list that is at all appealing to me. Luckily I chose not to buy NES Remix (entirely because I expected it to show up on Club Nintendo at some point - otherwise I would have bought the game) so there was one good option for me. Physical goods would've been preferable but I don't mind this as a prize.

Glad the selection worked out better for you though.

Really disappointed overall, only have a 3DS so my options were limited, was hoping for a music CD(Since last time I was only a gold member, and missed out on Majora's Mask, by like 15 coins IIRC >_>)

And just like last year, I already had most rewards they were offering.

Anyway, got Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, it's by far the biggest retail download I've got O.o I'm pretty sure it's bigger than Shin Megami Tensei 4, need to check again, but I'm pretty sure it's the biggest download I've gotten.

Very glad I switched to a 16GB SD card, or else I would have to either delete or buy a 32GB one.

I was meaning to get this game anyway, though didn't know if I should have suffered motion controls on the Wii or less framerate on the 3DS, but I guess the Elite rewards just made my decision

Granted, hopefully this means more Retail downloads rewards in the future, but I wouldn't like them to not give us anything physical like they did now.

Anyway, just my 2 cents on the rewards this year.

My opinion is that Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D is the best game being offered. Granted you might already own it on Wii and/or 3DS.
After that, the quality and value of games being offered drops pretty significantly.

I have more than $10 on my Eshop account. I'm just playing it smart by waiting for deals Now Earthbound is free for me and I got money for even more games

Unless earthbound is the 1 game you didn't own, you're not being smart for deals. There's 2 options for $30, 1 for $20, 1 for $15 and 1 for $11

I already gave it to Peteza gaf, so sorry.
