US/CAN Club Nintendo Thread: New and improved. Read the OP.

Really don't know what to choose between the three 3DS eShop games for Gold. Sakura Samurai looks bleh and neither of the two retro games are pulling me strongly. :|
 
I wish club nintendo gave me the option of trading in everything i have for gold nunchuck. Still salty about it since i bought a wii u to get enough points for it

eBay gives you the option to trade everything you own to get the gold nunchuck. I sometimes think of going that route :)
 
I have Platinum and want none of these rewards. If you want one of them, PM me with an offer of some sort. Ugh. Maybe someone can offer me something I'd actually want.

I have all the game systems and love digital codes.
 
Fuck you, Nintendo.

Wasted two years of scrambling together points from anywhere I could get them just to get posters and badges, the worst rewards ever in comparison to previous years, and the ONE YEAR I CAN'T GET PLATINUM, you release the SOUNDTRACK TO MY FAVORITE ZELDA GAME.......THAT HALF THE PEOPLE WITH PLATINUM DON'T EVEN WANT.

What a slap in my face.

You might be able to use this to your advantage, you know :p

I'll sell you my copy for a vial of tears.

100 rupees and it is yours my friend. You buy.

Man if you'd only told Reggie earlier. He'd have sent you one. He's cool like that. Trust me I've seen his Animal Crossing house.
 
I too have Platinum and the rewards aren't that enticing. I'm looking to trade it for a Star Fox 64 3DS digital code. If anyone is up for it, hit me up with a PM.
 
Just filled out the survey for SMT IV and was lead to an oops page. My points haven't been credited, and I can't insert the code again. What's the protocol for situations like this?
 
Going to get the MM CD, will wait to figure out what my new shipping address will be before I submit though
You can always change your shipping address after the fact. Remember, the physical rewards won't ship for another 4 or 5 months. You don't have to wait.

Don't worry, that's not uncommon. It will show up on your "to do" list.

Wait a few minutes and check your To-Do list. I had a similar problem with Fire Emblem when I tried to enter the code.
 
Down to 11 physical rewards. I can't believe that blue DS stylus/game case finally sold out, and before the Animal Crossing one.
 
Can't believe that this year is more disappointing than the cards from last year. I don't want any of this stuff. I'm thinking of just getting the Smash Bros ROM.
 
I can't decide what I want to choose between, the posters are aight and I really like all three or the MM soundtrack.

The posters look cool and I'd actually be framing them, even though no one would see them they'd be some cool swag.
On the other hand I've never heard or played MM so I don't know if it'll be something I'd like to listen to but I'd still like to get it for keepsake purposes. The poster's seem so useless in comparison to the disc even though I'd be framing the posters. (My friends would also be suuuuuper jealous)

Man, I wish they gave you the option to pick two rewards or something.

:(
 
Went for the CD myself. Have already gotten both Zelda poster packs and the Mario poster pack, so I have my fair share of Nintendo posters. I love Majora's Mask, so the decision was pretty easy. I really like the Wind Waker poster, but it was the only one I really wanted from the three poster pack.

I only want the PIkmin one myself, but I don't want to bother with selling posters. Seems annoying. I might just get the CD and sell it or something, but yeah extremely disappointing this year.

The fact that it comes in a jewel case and is in two discs just makes it that much more appealing. But, I most likely would never listen to it or listen to it often because it doesn't have that nostalgia for me and while I can appreciate good music for what it is I'm not sure what to expect from an OST from a game around 13 years old.

At first I only liked the WW poster too, but the others completely warmed up to me. This is my first Platinum year after being registered for since 2009 (?, don't remember the year but I've been there even longer than that ever since i got a code for it from my gameboy) and I'm more than happy!
 
I just got a promotional email:

Since you already own Fire Emblem Awakening, we think you’ll love Shin Megami Tensei®IV. That’s why we’re offering a $30 credit for the Nintendo eShop when you register the game at Club Nintendo.*

...but I don't already own Fire Emblem.

I should though, I really enjoyed the one on GBA. Nonetheless, I'm curious as to why Nintendo thinks I own FEA.
 
I had a pretty good year. I got:

gold nunchuk
Mario game rack
black Wiimote holder
Star Fox 64 3D (XL promo)
3D Classics Kid Icarus
Pilotwings
Mario's Picross

The Majora's Mask soundtrack is just the icing on the cake.
 
How long do we have to claim the prize anyways?

I'm completely stumped as to what I should get. How do they expect you to order the Zelda OST if they don't even show you what the packaging actually looks like?

Hmmm... Pikmin poster or Majora's Mask OST? I really can't decide. I'd probably never touch the latter (where the former will end up framed and on my wall), but it'll probably be worth more in the future.
 
Got Super Mario Land. *shrug*

Guess I gotta spend all my coins on whatever I can in the next year before they expire because it seems like Club Nintendo will never get cool shit ever again. And if it does it will be in some few hour window before it's out of stock.

Time to start hoarding 3D classics, I guess.
 
Quick question: if I have a friend that has Nintendo codes for games that I also have, but doesn't care about the Nintendo Club stuff, how do I add that stuff to my account? Do I get him to set up his own account (or do it for him), register the codes, and then bring him in as a "family member", or do I bring him in first, then register the stuff?

Fast answer: you create an account for "him" then link it to yours as a family account. They will be distinct except that the coins will add up into one sum. You can register one game (with different codes) on each account, etc...

Anyone had a problem redeeming their 30$ eShop credit? I got the task in my to-do list but each time I tried to access it, I'd get an error. I tried again this morning and the task is no longer there. I emailed Nintendo, hopefully they'll resolve that.

That makes no sense you could have got one on ebay for a 1/4 the cost of a Wii U, I hope your joking.

I figured i was going to get a wii u anyways and since the gold nunchucks were in stock i thought i might as well jump in now.
Lets be clear here, as much as i would like to have that nunchuck i am not going paying $70+ for an anolougue stick.
 
Down to 10 physical rewards (and the Wiimote holders are out of black and the T-shirts out of large). So it looks like they're really just going to let all the physical rewards die off, or will they surprise us with a bunch of new stuff at some point . . . ?
 
Ordered the Majora's Mask OST, was pleasantly surprised when the decription mentioned that it was 2 disc... pretty good reward imo.
 
Holy crap, I just saw the offer! D:

Took the MM CDs, it's a no brainer for me. It'll go perfectly with the OST I got from OoT3D
 
Is Sakura Samurai worth it? Not really interested in the other rewards honestly.

Also, if I wanted to buy DKCR on Eshop, can I pay 30 dollars (from SMT4/FE) then pay off the rest on my debit card or no?

If you got gold status it's a good choice; otherwise, I'd take a platinum-only reward and sell it to get more money than any of the downloadable games are worth, since you can always just buy them.
 
After watching some Youtube clips of the other games I went with Sakura Samurai. Looks kinda fun, although I've yet to play it.

I'm definitely striving for Gold from here on out though, as I prefer a game download to the blah Platinum prizes. I hope Paper Mario makes a return to the e-shop soon. I missed out on it last time.
