Topic: Club Nintendo Rewards. ^_^

Well the Club Nintendo site crash...

So with new rewards I wonder if I will have enough to get a good one...like I currently got 1100 coins on my main account (250 on another to buy a game) but I wonder if they will have some fancy thing costing more then that....also I remember trying my hardest to get 800-1200 coins back in the day when the game & watch games were a thing, sadly it's a breeze now if there wasn't something you wanted badly.

Nevermind on getting Platinum again.

I'll probably spend my coins as soon as I see something I want. Don't want to wait until the summer and watch them all get deleted.

The Club Nintendo site is on life support. The system is getting hammered right now, its glitching. I'll wait a few days until the mad rush is over.

They'll probably run out in minutes, actually. Nintendo has been guessing low on stock lately, as many of us know.

EDIT: oh, you probably mean your coins. Still, the last stuff gets put up in February, and if there are any good physical rewards, Nintendo fans will clean them out quickly.

The Elite Awards will be a download again. Hey, free stuff

Yeah, I saw that, and it seemed like they really pressed that it will available on April 1. So, the last year will be the one that is on time?

But last year, didn't they offer physical rewards to Platinum members? I swear that was the year I got the Majora's Mask OST.

That was back in 2013.

Oh, that's right. 2014 I got Game 'n' Wario. I like physical rewards better, though. The Majora's Mask Soundtrack is invaluable to me, but any game I would want equally as much, I likely already got.

Yup, I mean coins. I figure that I'll keep my eye on the site during February, and if there's something interesting that's a physical product, I'll jump on it as quick as I can. Digital, I can probably take a couple days.

Okay, yeah, it's working properly now. I re-took the survey and got 5 coins!

Also, I just received an email from Club Nintendo saying I've been selected to receive a couple of special early access demo codes for Monster Hunter 4 so me and a friend can play together!.. I've never been interested in Monster Hunter, but I guess this should be a good demo. It has infinite plays too!

20 virtual console titles have been added to the Japanese Club Nintendo http://www.nintendo.co.jp/club/D008/index.html

I liked the early years of CN's elite rewards like the Statue that some people got or even the pin set. They seemed like special one of a kind gifts that made getting Platinum feel special. The posters and CD were alright but those they just felt like normal CN stuff that I could have bought with my coins they didn't feel special at all and the download only games, well it's nice cause they are free games but honestly it would have felt alot more special if they were games that were never offered on the VC service or something like that. Like maybe they should have brought back the Donkey Kong Original edition something like that. Just something that you could say yeah I got elite CN status in 2013.

Oooh, Alleyway. Soon my Mario game collection will be complete.

If only they could offer Doc Louis's Punch Out, Donkey Kong Original Edition (even though I got it), the new picross game that you can get in CN Japan, Nintendoji, and maybe the ambassador program for the 3DS...well I don't need the little app thing but I just want some GBA games on my 3DS....

So many of those are for the Wii. I avoid downloading titles that makes me go to Wii mode. cuz I play on my Gamepad all the time in my room. I don't want to have to go to the living room to turn the TV on, set it up, turn it back off, and have to play with a separate controller with my Gamepad on display. If it uses motion-control or 2nd screen gameplay, I don't mind, but for a VC game, I want to play it on the Gamepad.

I hope there are plenty of games on the Wii U side for us in North America.

I hope we get Sin & Punishment.

My Smash Bros. poster set shipped today,so that's good.

I hope this isn't the North American list... I've only got 500 coins stashed, but would be hard pressed to spend even that paltry sum on those games. Super Mario Land would be kind of nice. Everything else... meh.

That's been turning into a consistent problem for many Club Nintendo users though - most digitial games that you want, you probably already own.
