Club Nintendo site is getting hammered already.

Sigh. They better mean Platinum last year. It'd be absolutely insane to expect anyone to have it this year already.
 
Damn. I always wait until the day before the year ends to input all of my codes.

Making demos platinum rewards is super dumb. Nintendo shouldn't be taking lessons from Microsoft.
 
I've gotten Platinum every year (so 6?, Nintendo, including this year. I think that should warrant the codes.

I wonder what the selection process is like, or if it's literally random.

I'm not following the stream, they did say 4 codes?
Yes, they stated you'll get an e-mail with 4 codes.
 
They should totally lock demos of highly anticipated games behind Platinum.

I'm serious. It's much more of an incentive to buy/register a bunch of games than the crappy rewards they give every year. E3 demos for Platinum members would be sweet.

Locking them entirely, no, but early access to the demo like what they are doing with Smash 3DS is a terrific idea, especially if it's already their intention to scale back physical rewards in favour of digital ones that have a low distribution overhead. This way they can scale member benefits up throughout the year beyond the limited selection of games rewarded in July.
 
Somehow limiting an advertising tool to your most enfranchised customers seems like a bad idea.

There would be far more Platinum members if there were better incentives to reach Platinum. That's a good thing for Nintendo. That's more games sold.

Obviously the demo would become available to everyone eventually, as well.
 
Wrong thread.

But what was originally here could be a SECRET OF THE UNIVERSE that can be revealed to you.

All for the low low price of one code.
 
Is it for this year or last? If this year, would I be able to become platinum today and still get it? I have the games, just not the desire.
 
That's great news. Although I'm a pleb it's better than going until Oct 3 smashless.

Also...to those that have the demo, how many times can it be played?
 
Haha was like ~40 coins away from Platinum last year too. Oh well.

I'll join the begging. Some Smash would be lovely if someone's gonna have a code to spare.
 
The one year I hold back on platinum.. Hopefully the 4 code thing is true, would love to get it a week early. The anticipation from the Japanese launch is making me uncontrollably hyped!
