Fluidity Is Your New Club Nintendo Reward

Haven't we got enough puzzlers already? Sheesh.

It's not a pure puzzle, it has platform and metroidvania elements

You wouldn't think that this kind of reward program would be difficult to do in all parts of the world.

I think this was a reward a few months back.

Why don't we have this in Europe??!!

This game should get a 3DS version. It looks great.

@Omega - The game itself or the reward?

Personally love the game and suggest anyone who doesn't own it to take advantage of this offer. Assuming you are in a position to...

This was a reward already...and they broke the WiiWare to Virtual Console pattern, didn't they?

I don't care of this was already a reward or not, I'm getting it!

@Firejonie It was, I picked it up back then.

I don't care how good this game is, I want a Club Nintendo reward with old school classic controls. (I was over motion controls a few years ago.)

This is the second time they offer Fluidity as a reward.
But that's okay, I guess. It's a really good game. It's basically a metroidvania with water, set in the pages of a storybook.

I fix the title:

"Fluidity Is Your Old Club Nintendo Reward"

I downloaded it the last time it was a reward.

Great game. Quite the opposite of pouring money down the drain for me.

I'm totally getting it. Also nice to spend 150 coins on something that's $12 rather than something that's only worth $3. I do want a 3DS version of this, though.

You know I was thinking the same thing, wasn't this the first reward with SMK, M&DK DSiWare, and 3D Classic Xevious. Guess I got it confused with World of Goo

@ImDiggerDan (#7) We have the game in Europe (though it's called Hydroventure here). I meant the rewards in general.

We have stars instead of coins. But usually you can only get odds and ends for an astronomically high sum of stars. Or you can swap stars for Wii Points. We get 100 Wii Points for 400 stars. So if I wanted to have Fluidity I would need 4800 stars!!!

@bezerker99
kirby super star was a club nintendo reward with old school controls. you need a classic controller to play it.

That's an incredible deal. Hydroventure (Fluidity) is one of the best games on the system. In terms of quality and quantity, it's easily better than most retail releases for Wii. For me it's not only one of my favourite Wiiware games, it's one of my favourite Wii games.

Even though this game was one of the first rewards offered, if any of the previous awards had to be repeated, this is clearly the best one to do so. I actually emailed Nintendo back in mid-January (after the offer expired to get this) to bring back Fluidity as an option in the future. It looks like I wasn't the only one that suggested this, so thanks for reading the emails Ninty!

Also, another thing to keep in mind that hasn't been noted much on here is that the rewards are no longer a monthly basis, but a bi-weekly reward listing. This means more games per month, which means less annoyance if the title currently offered is not your cup of tea.

As for the next eligible WiiWare title to come up in the future, maybe I'll suggest the currently overpriced Pokemon Rumble, there aren't many other titles left that they haven't offered...

Get. This. Game.
Even at the normal $12 price, it's easily worth it. If this was released as a budget retail title at $19.99, it would seem like an amazing deal. Just because it's a download-only title, the 12 dollars seems steep. It's all psychological. But if you have 150 coins, the price is moot anyway... as Dutch says, "C'mon do it!"

@Omega
completely agree this is very annoying, looking at the coins required to download these games, it seems you do not need much.

C'mon Nintendo Europe we need these kind of rewards not some keyring, and Points cards that only work on Wii!!!!!!!

Definitely going to pick this up. I played the demo a couple years ago and really enjoyed it.

This game would be absolutely perfect on the Wii U (or any tablet based device for that matter). In the meanwhile, you should really play this. Closest to a downloadable Metroid you'll get on WiiWare.

Wow. For those of you who don't have it I'd recommend it. I was hoping for some Virtual Console goodness like Super Metroid or something, but this is ok too...

This is a great little game. I did pick it up when it was released (for real coins), but for anyone who has missed it, here's another chance to get it. I'll just have to wait till the 19th. Although maybe there will be something for me when they swap out the portable title.

Easy recommendation. One of the best Wii games of any format. Oh, and I got it as a reward previously.

I'm saving my coins for only this

Yeah, bummer to see a reward repeating so soon, you would think they have a lot more games to offer before cycling through them. Personally I am waiting for Mario Land 2, Game and Watch Gallery or Link's Awakening.

So I hope the people that let it go last time get it now. It is worth it.

They should put Dillion's rolling western, light tracks, rotozoa, FZero, Pilotwings, or crono trigger as a reward

2nd time as a download.

I also think it would be interesting to have a poll for the CN rewards. Could be nice to see how many people

• will spend their coins for the game
• are planning to download it with eShop cash now that the game's in the limelight again
• already have it
• are not interested in the game at all.

Don't care if it's a repeat, I'm getting it.

This looks really interesting.
