Club Nintendo Offers Collectible Handheld History Cards

Uh, no thanks. I just save up for the good ones when the Club Nintendo year ends!

I think I'd rather purchase the Hanafuda cards. What the hell are these things good for anyways?

are they all life size of to scale?

@jibberldd5 Official dimensions are 6.125" x 4.125"

What do you mean not quit where it all began? Wasn't Game & Watch Ball the first?

@KaiserGX The caption refers to the image, which only starts from Game Boy

First card is Game & Watch, it's just on the Info side of the card.

I should get this! I could learn a bit more about Nintendo. I was saving my Coins up for Game & Watch: Ball, but I think I want this more right now.

What exactly are these cards good for? Do they serve a purpose besides displaying SOME of Nintendo's handhelds?

Definitely getting this! As a rabbid Nintendo fan and avid collector, this is perfect for me! I already know all the history but I'll still enjoy reading them. Plus me thinks they'll look very nice on my Club Nintendo shelf

The Virtual Boy isn't a handheld. At least it's not listed as one.

@smagknil: Incorrect! The GB Micro chronologically came AFTER the original Nintendo DS!

Smagknil you think you could get pics of it when you get it?

This topic reminded me I still haven't gotten my Club Nintendo year-end reward.

@Portista: you mean the Elite rewards? You know you can still get these rewards and still be eligible for those

@James no, i mean, when you get the cards, are the size of the pictures as big as the actual handheld in real life?

@bboy2970 i know, i only list them as they are order on the pic =P but nice catch...

@KaiserGX sure i can, just dont know where to upload them, maybe in the forums...

virtual boy is not handheld or portable by any stretch. You can't even use it without that dopey stand mounted on a table (which has an instantly breakable hinge on it). It didn't say "History of stuff with BOY in the name".

i think the size are a little bit more than half a letter page stated inthe club nintendo page: Dimensions: 6.125" x 4.125" and comes with a special folder/pouch, nice...

Placed my order since yesterday, should be coming in soon!

@ DrCruse: The Virtual Boy wasn't even a handheld!! Portable, sure, I really guess so, but it definitely had a controller and went around your head.

Already ordered when I heard about it on Tiny Cartridge, just got an email that they've just been shipped.

I love these, I usually have a tough time deciding what to spend my coins on, but this was a no-brainer.

@jibberldd5 With those dimensions I seriously doubt it!

@KaiserGX You must have better eyesight than me, dude: I couldn't make out a Game & Watch on there.

I'd take them for free, but they're not worth using coins.

I'm either getting this or the messenger bag.

Something tells me Nintendo wants to make people aware of a catalog, that has virtual-life(emulation) potential.

So, for the cause of making profit, they don't really care about fudging the fact that the VB was half both console/handheld, & fully neither one simultaneously.
