Club Nintendo varies between territories, and typically PAL regions have occasional physical reward updates while North American gamers have a choice of eight downloads every month. Some in North America won't necessarily have been happy at the minimal number of physical rewards in the territory, however, but there's positive news with a few more now available.
The key addition is a NES Remix 2 t-shirt with a cost of 700 coins; it's only available in Large and Extra Large sizes.
Next up we have two sets of 3DS Game Card Cases — each has space for 18 3DS or DS carts and has three interchangeable covers. They both cost 400 coins and you can see them below.
Are any of you in North America planning to pick up these rewards? Let us know in the comments below.
Thanks to Babyguess for the heads up.

I'm not a large shirt size, and I already have a carrying case, but very glad to see that they haven't abandoned physical rewards!
I just popped on and was surprised to see that shirt. I snagged that up mighty quick.
Maybe I should get my wife one of those. The shirt might be big on her but she could always use it as a sleep shirt
Available in large AND EXTRA LARGE!!!
I'm not near that shirt size, and I dob't want the game cases. I want them to get those MK8 pins
Finally something half way decent. Grabbed both cases. Thanks Nintendo, you've restored my faith a little in Club Nintendo. Now just make the platinum reward awesome and all will be forgiven.
Meh, will save my coins.
The Legend of Zelda case is not new. I got one 6+ months ago
Am I reading this right? First time we get something new in almost a year.... And the Zelda one is a restock which is also nice.... something actually got restocked.
I'm very surprised! And yet, very pessimistic about how long these will last. I surmise a week at most before they are sold out for another year or so
Nice! I'll consider saving up for a t-shirt. I've already got the Zelda case; maybe I'll get the Mario/Pikmin one, too, since after Christmas I might possibly have enough games to warrant a second one. (I currently keep my extra games in my room and swap them out when I feel like playing them)
Wow, I am really shocked. I will pick all of these up with my 3000+ coins.
Cool to see new physical rewards, but I'm gonna pass. Shirt looks decent enough, but not for 700 coins. Plus large might be a bit too big for me.
I saw that today, but I thought this was from some time ago and I just figured I missed NL posting about it.
Hey, I wanted new clothes and "NINTENDO" practically gave me a new shirt. Too bad I don't have the near coinage for it.
Not bad,I like the shirt but its a little big for me
I already have the Zelda case set and love it. No thank you t-shirt.
FINALLY! I already have the Zelda case. I ordered the Pikmin case, despite already having four other cases... and ordered the shirt. I still have 800 points left over lol
Wish I had that kinda coinage the cases look nice. also lol at only large and XL sizes, they know their market!
@MetaSmasher Not nice. I considered the shirt till I saw they don't have medium....
No club nintendo over here ;__;
Cool. I grabbed the Pikmin/Mario 3DS card case.
In for a Pikmin/Mario case! I've needed a more secure place to keep my 3DS games in, and I had exactly 400 coins left to spare after having bought the Smash poster set earlier. Would get the shirt, but I'm a bit too far off in coins to have any hope of getting it in time, heh. Ah well, happy to have another physical item anyways!
That Zelda game card set picks my interest far more than anything NoE has added as of late. Oh well.
I have 1380 coins and some surveys so I might just get this...haven't been any good physical rewards in forever.
Heck, they even have extra large so I may get it! I'd need it. I'm so big you can't even grasp my true form.
@MetaSmasher This made me lol.
@Giygas_95 This should be comment of the year.
I'd order it if they had a medium. I did order a Zelda game card case, though.
I still want the golf balls...
Got the shirt ordered even though I'm not completely in love with it. Gotta spend those coins on something.
Only large and extra large? I feel like my coins are going to expire before I ever buy anything.
I might get the T-shirt, but I don't really care much for NES Remix.
Just ordered the shirt! Yussss
It's a Christmas miracle.
Yup. I'm not getting the T-shirt. I was going to get it for my bro, if he wanted it, but it's a no go.
Getting the shirt! Yay!!!
I'm not fond of cases. and the shirt is too big for me... but glad to see physical rewards return. Hoping for more soon.
I might get the game cases. That shirt just looks... not right.
Aw! I just spent coins on BattleShip!
That shirt is dope. I want!
zelda set ordered!
finally a reason to earn coins!
@KodyDawg Really Want that Tshirt, but I need at least a 2x to hide my pot-belly
Had 790 Coins in my account. Filled out a post play survey. Got ten more coins. Ordered both 3DS cases!
I just spent coins on Kirby's Dreamland yesterday. Really wanted that shirt, too.
Happy to see some new physical items. The t-shirt looks cool just not 700 coins worth. The cases are not my thing so I will pass.
@Maelstrom
Yep.
@Tazcat2011
We can only dream....
Awesome news! Snagged the Zelda Game Card Case. I've been waiting for that one to pop up for a while now. Had 400 coins on the dot so that cleaned me out. Will be adding a bunch more after Christmas though. Hooray for Club Nintendo this time around!
700 coins is a bit too steep for my liking. That, and it isn't available in my size!
I grabbed the shirt and I'm considering the Pikmin/Mario case but that would only leave me with 60 coins. If stuff is coming back I may better off hanging onto my coins for now though I really like Pikmin stuff.
Just ordered the Mario/Pikmin case. I was saving up for a decent game, but then I saw those cases.
I spent most of my coins on a few lackluster games I had a passing interest in because I was sitting on over 1000 of them for months. Suddenly Club Nintendo has some nice physical rewards. Murphy's law never fails.
You are welcome NA
So glad I didn't cave and spend my coins on any of the games earlier this month. I was just explaining to my dad how I needed another game card case, and while I'm not in love with the shirt I still nabbed it as well.
Finally I got shirt that's not bright green . Cool to bad I only deal with digital or I would have gotten the link 3ds case too. I still have a 1030 left.
When I get enough coins, I am totally going for the Zelda/Mario case. I love the boo sleeve <3
Well I got an Xl I normally get large but the last shirt I got was a little tight. These shirts do run small I know it will be just right
Yay, game cases! I have one of these from the first set way back when, but now I have too many games to put in it so I've been needing a second. Missed out on the second wave a while back, but not this time!
Sucks they never make these shirts big enough, though. Even if I was skinny I couldn't pull off a 1X because I'm too tall! This is America, guys...size accordingly.
After the wrecking job Nintendo has done to my wallet, and the great holiday deals on Nintendo games this year, cough*Target*cough, I have enough for these. Im in need of a new 3DS game case but I dont wanna spend the coins just in case something great comes out like what happened last year with the Luigi statue. And not having enough coins.
Ordered!
I just ordered the shirt earlier today. Can't wait !
Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered the Zelda card case.
I went for the shirt. Part of me is just flattered they added some new physical items to the eShop. But the other part really likes the shirts they offer. Sadly, spending this many coins means something even more spectacular is coming soon.
Really like that shirt so I wish it was on EU Club Nintendo. Nevertheless, I'm really glad NA finally got some physical rewards as their Club Nintendo has been horrible for about the past year.already.
Sun of a GUN! I've been sitting on a bunch of coins for ages now, and when they offered that poster set I went for it, thinking that I might as well spend them on SOMETHING even if I don't care that much for it. Then they give us this awesome shirt!
I'm way sad.
Much thanks! I need a 3DS case for my travels. I only have a three set that only carries nine in total! I also hope that our purchases will convince them to add more physical rewards.
Definitely NOT an XL or even L size, so looks like I'm just ordering the Link game case...
And I just bought a new 3DS game case last week :/. Might still get one though
No no no no NO! I don't have enough coins for that shirt. I should never have gotten those stupid Smash posters. Hope this is still available when I get some more.
Whats the betting we get these in the UK next month just because I gave in and got the yellow pikmin keychain, I have 1500 stars left which probably isn't enough for a case .
I wanted the AC:NL games case they did last time (Since i have the Newleaf 3ds xl) but that pikmin one looks cute and colourful
@Clara If it ends up being the same price as the last Club Nintendo case then you will have enough (1250 stars)
@Grumblevolcano Yayy, Thank you for the good news
The pikmin set me back 1700stars so I was expecting the case to be more than that
Yay come on Ninty EU i need a 3ds games case
I may get another one of those cases, as they are very convenient.
Not all their customers are fat you know. I know a vast majority are but still.
Ordered both cases. Glad I didn't pick up Kirby. Dreamland 3 was always my least favorite game in the series, anyway.
It takes a long time to collect these points. Then when you look at what's on offer well............. lets just say I've had better in a Christmas cracker.
That shirt is beautimus!
Well I am not even chubby and I'd say those shirts are short more than tight. I normally get a L . I had 2 shirts from here it's not about being Pizza the Hut. I think it's about where they are made
I cracked and got both the Shirt and the Zelda case.
I already have the Zelda case from earlier in the year, so I'll nab the Pikmin one!
Just got the shirt!
Already have the Zelda case from the last time they offered it. Gonna grab the Pikmin one.
We finally get some decent rewards.....that will just be sold out really quickly, leaving the rewards section completely barren once again.
I'll probably get the shirt, but I'm not a size Large, so I may resell it to someone who is.
Wow, finally a decent shirt in NA.
LOL at only offering large and extra large.
@DiscoGentleman: If having a wider variety of sizes is what is necessary, that's what I mean. But offering 1X at the largest is still absurd for us. I'd be all for them offering bigger AND smaller sizes so these shirts aren't just a bad joke.
I already have one of those 3DS game cases but it's all banged up and horrible looking. I've got 510 coins but I want to save them in case they release something like that Luigi statue again. I hate decisions...
Jumped on another Zelda Game Case for my collection. These things are AWESOME.
Finally ordered something on Clubnintendo. Was beginning to think my coins would never be spent on anything. Got the Zelda game case:)
Hooray a Shirt and they have it in my size
i finally spent some of my coins
Thanks for the tip, picked up the two game cases.
Ordered the two 3DS cases, finally something decent to blow some coins on
Been waiting a while for these Zelda card case! I really wanted the one with the Zelda items/sprites on the inside.
YES!!!!
I've been waiting and saving for the Game Cases FOREVER.
Just went ahead and ordered 2 of them. This should (barely) accommodate my DS & 3DS library
Seriously? I JUST spent my codes on the Kirby game of the month yesterday! And now I don't even have enough coins to get one of those cases...
I had honestly decided that Club Nintendo NA had given up on physical rewards. Not only was I thrilled to find out I was wrong, but I'm a sucker for anything Metroid.
Cool, but I'm not about to drop 700 coins on a t-shirt, and I already have a 3DS game card case I got last year on Club N.
Do I need this many games? No, but that's.two games cases for me! And another 1300 coins to spare!
I LOVE the looks of that t-shirt, but I won't be dropping 700 coins on it. I much prefer downloadable games over physical rewards. Nonetheless I'm glad to see these new items available for those that want them.
Coinage Comparison:
Classic Mario = 550 Coins
Yoshi's New Island = 800 Coins
NES Remix 2 = 700 Coins
Mario Kart 8 = Come to NoA Club Nintendo!
Really Wish Club Nintendo In the UK would allow us to spend stars on games. It's been the same stuff in the catalog for about a year.
Late comment, but I'm SO glad they brought back these 3ds game card cases (the only worthy prize imo) after I just recently made my CN account; so of course I did all the annoying surveys from my games+systems, and got just enough coins for 1 of each design, then just got them in the mail the other day, and I love being able to put all my 3/ds games in them for easier/quick access! Might get a few more some day.
