Re: Nintendo's Gold Coin Prices Point the Way to Freebies

Bluecup

The gold totals are based on the RRP, so if a item has a discount/sale the gold points doesn't go down. Not sure if this is on purpose or not.

I've upgraded my Wii copy of Lylat Wars to the Wii U Star Fox 64 for £1.79 and got the 10 Gold Points.

Looking at Virtue's Last Reward page, it is currently on sale for £9.99 but you will get the 30 gold points based on it's £19.99 RRP.

Two things:
1) There is an option for "Redeem a My Nintendo Point Code" in the menu. Codes in retail products coming back or for hand outs??
2) Don't like how you can't filter/sort the rewards.

1,000 Platinum Points =
100 Points for linking Nintendo ID with Nintendo Account
+
Signing in to the eshop and miiverse for 15 weeks (30 * 2 * 15 = 900)

So can get a free game in 15 weeks.

1,000 Platinum Points would normally take around 4 months to collect just by visiting the eshop and miiverse once a week. Getting a free game (My Nintendo Picross or WarioWare: Touched!) every 4 months for doing something I already do isn't too bad.

A theme would take a month.

Re: Nintendo Should Follow In Marvel's Footsteps And Produce Its Own Hollywood Movies, Say Producers

Bluecup

There are some possibilities for generic movies using Nintendo IP.

Metroid: A Alien style movie, with Samus leading a team that's tracking down space pirates until metroids get involved and then things get messy.

F-Zero: A Fast and Furious style movie. Captain Falcon, bounty hunter, joins the elite racing league to track down someone or other.

Pikmin: A kid friendly Pitch Black style film.

Smash Bros. update in August to add tournaments. Splatoon update in August to add better friend match making. Is it just me but doesn't this all point to the new all singing, all dancing Club Nintendo replacement coming in August? And no one predicting a showing of Nintendo's mobile game?
