Club Nintendo coins burning a hole in the brick you use to store them? Want to set them free but don't fancy bashing your head in? You need a new reward, then.
You can now choose from a Metroid: Other M screensaver, a set of three posters charting the history of Donkey Kong or, best of all, a giant double-sided AR card for the 3DS.
The screensaver costs 10 coins, the giant AR card is 200 coins and the Donkey Kong posters will set you back 400 smackers.
What will you be getting? Anything, nothing? Let us know.

I want those posters, but I have nowhere to put them. I was only able to hand up 1 Mario poster, and the rest of them (Along with about 10 other posters) are under my bed, due to lack of wall space. Not to mention I'm trying to save up for Ball anyway.
They're all are pretty cool. Those Metroid screen savers are tempting and so are the DK posters.
I wonder why the DK posters 50 more coins than the other 2 sets.
Yay new freebies!
Wait, where's my SNES classic controller for the Wii?
Posters are nice...and I like the idea of the AR card (I don't have a 3DS though) I'll be saving my coins for anything metroid related in the future (what I really want is a metroid or samus figurine)
Just the screensaver for me.
I lost my AR ? card, so this should be a good replacement
We got a giant AR card free with the official Nintendo Magazine in the UK :3
And it had an Oshawatt AR marker on the reverse side.
If you want a giant AR Card, give me a "Hell yeah"! I know where my remaining points are going!
I already ordered my AR Card
@Hyperstar This is technically an animated screensaver, not a wallpaper.
@Hyperstar: Go get the big paper then. This one's probably better quality
Now why couldn't these have come before the end of June when I had to spend some expiring coins?
The giant AR card is only 200 coins!? That's awesome! I know what my next purchase is.
I like the posters, it might be nice to frame all 3 "history" posters. But overall these new releases don't really jump out at me personally.
Your source link be broken.
Meh.
All I really want is for the SNES Classic Controller for the Wii to come to North America. Thats what I'm waiting for.
giant AR card FTW
I'll order my AR Card when it gets here Good thing, I've been saving my coins for something good.
I already spent all my Club Nintendo points last month, because their 3-year limit ran out. None of these rewards look that interesting, anyways.
I'm definitely grabbing a giant AR card.
Can't wait to play this in my front room while all of the neighbors walk past my window and wonder why I'm running around in circles.
I'm still saving up for that Game & Watch @.@
I don't get why everyone is going crazy over the giant AR card. Actually, I find all of the AR activities on the 3DS dull. Anyway I might get the posters since I have the mario and zelda sets, and the screensaver looks ok for just 10 coins. I'm also torn between the mario sensu and the reversible pouches. anyone get a sensu or pouch yet? Are they worth it?
@loopyluigi the pouch is good, i use it everyday, nice material and very soft. i also wanted the sensu but never got one so i cant help you with that.
just ordered the big ar card :3
Against my better judgement I ordered the AR Card. Between this, the Zelda posters, and the blue 3DS pouch, I'm almost out of coins. D:
The Metroid screensaver was tempting, but I already have and don't use the History of Mario one, so...
Also I already have a DK poster and am out of room for more.
Nothing really cool except for the giant AR card, but I wonder why we don't get a set of Metroid posters? 25th Anniversary after all.
And how about some Fire Emblem posters? The 20th Anniversary for the series was last year.
Giant. Effing. AR Card. SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
edit: @loopyluigi YOUR FACE IS DULL
@24
I have both the Sensu fan and pouch. They are both OK.
The pouch (I think it may actually be like a Japanese bento box baggie), is of nice quality and I used it recently during a 2500 mile motorcycle trip to keep my charger, bud earphones and 3DS. The only downside is that it is pretty bulky, to the point that it can't really be used while carry the 3DS around in pants/jacket...unless you roll like an MC in 2003, uber-baggie style. While it is not cushioned, it is soft and thick enough to provide at least some limited protection against softer impacts.
The Sensu is quite nice. I got the Mario one for my daughter. In the end it is just a paper and wood fan, but the printing is nice, the wood has nice detailing and I think it actually uses gampi (the correct paper for Japanese fans). It uses back paper to cover the frame and has end guard sticks to add durability and improve appearance. A fabric storage pouch is included.
While I use the pouch more (mainly because I do a lot of motorcycle touring), I think the Sensu is a much nicer item. The pouch is functionional, the Sensu is more "art-like" for lack of a better term. So it somewhat comes down to the utilitarian vs. the aesthetic.
Next on my list is the messenger bag. Anyone that has one have any input on that item?
@Number_6 (29): I have the messenger bag! It's very good. Pretty standard fare for a bag of that sort, but it's well-made and absolutely functional. I actually use it quite often. 550 coins is on the high side, which I'd suppose is the only real downside.
I'll get the Metroid screensaver and maybe the AR card.
I might get the AR card after Ball, of course.
I just ordered the giant AR card.
I think it would be funner to kill a GIANT monster statue than the small one produced by the actual "?" card! (Pardon my Grammer)
Edit:
Just ordered one! I just hate that it has a crease down the middle of it. But I guess it will be easier to store like that.
Gonna order the giant AR Card
Sweet rewards
I shall be getting that card. I think I may hang it up on my wall. It'll really tie the room together.
I would have much rather received the Wii points card award in NA, instead of the AR card award. IMO
I wanted a game soundtrack but no. These prizes aren't that great.
Same here WiiAboutU.
ah, when are we gonna get the SNES Wii controller??
I ordered the Metroid Screensaver, and the Giant AR Card. Screensaver is nice, But i cant wait to try out that AR Card. It will be on my channel as a show off prize
I want Zelda stuff. Everything in the store but Ball is kinda lame imo.
fine-a-fricken-ly.
Would be cool if the Giant AR Card came to the European Club too. And it would be even cooler if it was a magic carpet.
I'ld like all but the screensaver. I seen the giant AR card before on Nintendo Week lol
Man, I just went to the Nintendo UK Club Nintendo page... and sheesh, are those rewards so much better than America's. Points cards? Soundtracks? Full retail games?? (okay, it's Mario Tennis for GBA, but still.) And of course, the SNES controller. Yes, I'm gonna get me that giant AR card. But I can't believe how less interesting the rest of the USA rewards are than everywhere else...
The donkey kong timeline poster wasnt well done, it repeats the first game twice and it didnt include donkey kong country 2 or 3! uh wait maybe it was because donkey kong wasnt playable in those games....nevermind! _
I also have the messenger bag (that's the black one with the mario star on it, right?) and I agree with zeeroid's comments. It is well made but will wear out after a few years of regular use. Thanks for the input @number_6 I will probably get the sensu then because I tend to order the rewards for collectibles more than useful items.
910 points in two hours of one night.
Giant AR card, Zelda posters, Mario posters, and Mario screensaver the next day.
Now to save up for those coolio foolio cards...
But dang, if the UK gets so much more cool stuff. :C
bit with the giant AR card its gonna look like I'm falling when I try to shoot the target down the hole! D:
