Professor Layton And Pilotwings Appear In Latest My Nintendo Rewards (Europe)

And Game Freak's HarmoKnight

by Ryan Craddock Mon 27th Jul 2020

The latest batch of My Nintendo game discounts for Europe has now gone live, giving players the usual chance to grab a handful of games at reduced prices.

There are four new discounts available this time around, including good old Professor Layton and Pilotwings Resort, which remains the newest game in the series eight years since launch. You'll also find Game Freak's quirky - and enjoyable - rhythm game HarmoKnight on offer.

As always, you can take advantage of these discounts by simply using the required Gold or Platinum My Nintendo Points listed below.

[3DS] 50% off Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: 220 Gold Points
[3DS] 50% off Pilotwings Resort: 220 Gold Points
[3DS] 50% off Radar Mission (Virtual Console GB): 15 Gold Points
[3DS] 30% off HarmoKnight: 120 Platinum Points

Activate the discounts over on the My Nintendo website.

Will you be grabbing any of these offers? Remember, your Gold Points can also be spent on Switch software directly from the eShop or a Nintendo Switch Online subscription, too.

Ryan can list the first 151 Pokémon all in order off by heart – a feat he calls his ‘party trick’ despite being the biggest introvert we know.

Totally pointless, the 3ds is now a legacy platform. Nintendo should be offering rewards and discounts for Switch games instead as that is what 99% of people are interested in.

How is pilotwings still retailing at $39.99 usd? I looked on Nintendo's website. I realize its a my Nintendo points sale offer, but seems nuts. https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/pilotwings-resort-3ds/

No plans to buy.

I mean Pilot Wings 3DS is a good game, very enjoyable to have on the go but a quick check on Ebay I can see it for £6 as new delivered....

Layton vs Wright is a delicious offer, but not for now. That said... redeemable through September... so the purchase deadline is technically late October. Time will tell, but it could work out with me.

@vyseofhr and why not? Conventional discounts are comparatively rarer that late into a pastgen system's lifetime (just ask Vita), eBay is largely physical and full of sellers refusing to ship to certain countries (just ask Belarus), and these are essentially long-term sales that allow for advance planning. And many of the offerings are the classics you can't [yet] play on Switch anyway. Xenoblade 3D (not topical now but still dozens of hours before DE got announced), Pocket Card Jockey, Fire Emblem Echoes - some of the best 3DS titles in my collection joined it via My Nintendo coupons.

I would recommend picking up Layton vs Wright if you haven't already.

Not too much here however. Would be nice if Nintendo did more regular sales for these types of titles on the eShop without needing to redeem these offers and increase the variety available.

Does anyone actually care about this awful "rewards" scheme? If you look at what Japan gets (actual physical rewards) its a massive joke.
Bring back Club Nintendo, PLEASE!!!

You know how they would make My Nintendo worth all the worthless time it's existed ever since the first few months?

Offer the Ambassador Pass for 3DS for like over 1000 Gold coins or something. That would be really cool and actually worth something.

I hate to complain too much bc They really don’t have to do anything. But this is pretty lame. Discounting a nearly ten year old game on a system that’s all but dead? I know they won’t do it but they should reward those of us who supported the WiiU with some free ports.
