Just got Mario Party 10 for £15.99, Pretty good promotion considering you get the 30 gold coins back after the purchase too.
 
It's surprising how bad the Japanese service is compared to US/PAL offerings - maybe because Western users are more vocal about it?
 
Nobody mentioned yet that the Famicom Mini comes with a My Nintendo reg code? :)

(Western sites don't mention it so seems this is JP only so far but notable since it's the first retail product/hardware to come with a code aka the inevitable happened).
 
Well, I just got Super Mario Kart with some of my gold coins. Aren't I supposed to get 10 more gold coins for that? They're not showing up. Was hoping to pick up Wario Land 3 as well, but now I only have 30 left.

Unfortunately, IIRC if you use a discount percentage off coupon the purchase nets you the full coins, but if you use a free game coupon you don't get coins.

If only EB Beginnings was a normally priced NES game, I'd have jumped on it with the 40% off discount.

I'll likely get El Capitan Todd however. I guess it's worth mentioning that the Nintendo Selects discounts are only available until 16th of October.
 
It's past 2AM EST and they're still there...

What if they never expire? The only MyNintendo rewards until the end of time?

They will expire at 9AM EST as noted on the item page. So you still have 25 minutes to get the discounts for Hana Samurai and Earthbound Beginnings.
 
New discounts available on the European Portal:

HydroVenture: Spin Cycle for 3DS. 20% off for 200 Platinum Coins. Expires 1.1.2017.
HarmoKnight for 3DS. 20% off for 250 Platinum Coins. Expires 1.1.2017.
The Denpa Men: They Came by the Wave for 3DS. 30% off for 200 Platinum Coins. Expires 1.1.2017.
Mario Golf: World Tour for 3DS. 30% off for 70 Gold Coins. Expires 1.1.2017.
Bayonetta for Wii U. 30% off for 50 Gold Coins. Expires 1.1.2017.
NES Remix 2 for Wii U. 30% off for 20 Gold Coins. Expires 1.1.2017.
Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth for 3DS. 15% off for 250 Platinum Coins. Expires 1.1.2017.

Will update soon with coin amounts and expire dates.
EDIT: Updated. Is this also the first time they have 3rd-party retail title in there?
 
Old games removed in NA, no new ones added so far, the Mario and DK 3DS Themes are back (and they appear as "New" lol), this time no expiration date on those.

That's good, I was regretting not getting them, since there isn't anything else for me to spend my coins on.

this is the FIRST TIME EVER that you can get this for less. it's never been on sale. maybe harmoknight too but I'm 100% on this.

bought!

You should have bought it a long time ago as it's a good game.


The karaoke voucher just got extended for yet another month.

And then there's me, who has never even heard of HydroVenture before. Will look into it.

You've heard people talk about Fluidity before, right? That's the US name. First game came out on WiiWare, is about moving water through puzzly levels. Developed by Curve Studios back when Nintendo went to small indie studios to develop games for their download services.
 
Now Americans know how everyone else feels.


I'd be a lot more likely to use coins for themes if they didn't have bland, generic music.
Click to expand...

Well, there's nothing else to spend the coins on. So you just let them expire?
 
I rather like the themes and the music, it's just a shame that they've reused it for all four. It works perfect for the Mario and DK theme.
 
Wow, was expecting some new VC games up or something this morning. I remember when Iwata was hyping up this program as something which would help Nintendo retain users. So far, this seems really half-hearted. The coupons are barely worth it and most of the time you're better off buying physical for the lower prices.

Here's hoping they really step it up for NX launch.
 
Oh, joy, "Got it" all. Come on, Nintendo, we've been waiting 3 months for this. I seriously hope this is a mistake and they put up the actual new rewards on Monday.
 
They need to get some third party stuff on here. Maybe indies. Too many people will have already bought a high percentage of these Nintendo games.

at least they have unique sound effects

it's something I guess

I passed on the DK theme the first time around but it's evident now I won't ever get much else to spend my coins on
 
Funny story, back in July I had spent 100 gold to get El Capitan discounted to 24€, but then instead bought it on ebay with the amiibo for ~35. Welp…

Wait… Australia got the HarmoKnight deal for 50 silver less!

Has there been any real 3rd party stuff in NA yet? All I can think of are some themes but even then it's still for 3rd party series Nintendo handles outside Japan (Bravely, Yokai Watch).
Click to expand...

Don't ask me about NA :D

I just know we have Persona Q, Nano Assault EX, X-Type Plus, Denpa Men and used to have Harvest Moon discounts in EU.
 
You can now get 30% off Ultimate NES Remix for 900 Platinum coins, and it expires February 1st next year. Is this a rerun? I swear it is.
 
Just bought HarmoKnight with the My Nintendo discount and an eShop code (additional 20% off). With 200 gold coins, I have no idea what to do with those.

I think it was regular NES Remix before? might be wrong

I think it was the Wii U version of Remix 1 last time, this is the 3DS version which combines Remix 1 and 2. It's well worth it at that discount IMHO, assuming you don't already own it.
