Wasn't everyone saying that the dude above was wrong and you CAN in fact add 2 different color 3DS and get both of their points? Now I'm confused. :S

oh...maybe? for hardware that might make sense, dont see why not. i just know for software it's another account but the form literally looks like it takes minutes, if that. i guess i never tried, but you should be cool either way!

I contacted Customer Support and they discovered it was a glitch in the system and will be sending me a new code.

Give the old code to someone and see if it's for Starship Defense.

I have it reserved for a friend. It was for Excitebike 3D.

Next 3DS freebie confirmed.

Does no one want a Mario Tennis code for another spare game? I know it's unlikely for people to have spares but still.
Would be a pretty good freebie. It's good fun but it's something that I'm glad I got free a year ago, heh
Would be better than Golf
What do I get for becoming a Square-Enix member?
Also, can I register two of the same game? I have MK7 already but I bought another copy which I now traded in for KH3DS. So I have an extra MK7 code.

I have a spare Pilotwings if you don't have that...
Just got the Planet Crashers reg survey too. 20 coins is a nice surprise.

Wow, I'm 40 coins short of gold status already. Not bad for 30 days.
At any rate I'm saving up for a Hanafuda cards. Anyone have them? They nice?

Quick question!
I became an "Elite/Platinum" member two or three weeks ago. When I try to order an elite gift I get this error:
"Sorry this item is available for 2012 Platinum members only."
Does this mean I have to wait until next year? Or are they out of rewards and I'm screwed?
EDIT: Crap, just read the OT. So the deadline was July 31st, but it's still ~10pm where I live (SoCal). I take it they're going by Eastern Time?

Log in to CN, click Account & Coins, then go to the Coins & Status tab, scroll down to the bottom where it says "Elite Status History."
If it says "2012 Elite Status: Gold" or "2012 Elite Status: Platinum" then you should be able to pick a prize.
If you reached Platinum since July 1st (as in, earned over 600 coins in July) it should say "2013 Elite Status: Platinum" and will be able to pick your reward next year in July 2013.
What I'm guessing happened though, is that you had less than 600 current coins (as in, unspent) on July 1st when the new CN year began, and reached 600 (again, current coins) since then, and the site mistakenly told you you'd reached Platinum. There's an error in the site where upon your current coins reaching 300 or 600 it will congratulate you, even if your coins for that year are above or below the required amount.
Remember, the current coins amount doesn't matter, just the amount for the year, which is stated in parentheses after your status on the page I sent you to above.

Just checked and this is what happened. I actually created my account after July 1st and reached 600 coins in one day. So I have to wait until next year then.BooJoh said:
I hope next year's rewards are much better. Thanks for the help BTW!
I hope nobody actually missed out on ordering their gift (although I'm sure we'll get a few, we always do).
Edit: Then again, somebody did say they extended it to August 7th or thereabouts didn't they? I need to confirm that, I guess...
Edit 2: OK, the conformed end date is August 6. Adding to the OP...

Did you actually read it? You can register it without problem. There's no need for you to pawn it off on someone.

Booyah! I decided to hit GameStop and make one last check for some games I've been trying to find used -- had a "buy 2 pre-owned games get 1 pre-owned game free" coupon from renewing my GI sub -- and managed to come away with a copy of Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. The best part? It still had the CN code in the case, and it worked!
With that, I'm now a mere 70 coins away from platinum for 2013. Sittin' pretty baby. Sittin' pretty.

Watch 2013's plat reward be something lame again like buttons and playing cards.
Of course it's going to be lame, we're talking about a CN year where they're releasing two pieces of hardware (3DS XL, WiiU).

I wish you weren't very likely to be right.
On the bright side, if I play my cards right, I'll be in equally as pretty a position for 2014 as well; I'll just sit on my Wii U registration (and 3DS XL if I get one) 'til the year ticks over.
Yay! I got my personal 3DS right before the pricedrop, so I missed it. Was planning to transfer it from my wife's 3DS back when I thought 3DS transfers would work like DSi->3DS. Will definitely be getting that one.
It's not *actually* confirmed.
Yeah yeah, I figured it was coming, this is just more evidence

im telling you, im gonna hit 1200 or whatever this year and the day after i order the game & watch, that zelda statue or something will go up. i can feel it.
That's funny, the icon for Nintendo DSi Metronome has been replaced with the logo for the black MyNotebook. "I never bought that!" I said.
EDIT: BTW, I ended up using the proceeds from the CN prizes and various preorder gifts to get a new 22" 1080p monitor and a Kinect + 3 games bundle. Kinect is mostly to play around with programming for, but the voice control thing is cool.

I wonder if Nintendo stopped renewing the expiration dates for older titles since I had a post play survey for Mario Strikers Charged that was set to expire on July 30, 2012 and it didn't renew like it did for older titles like Mario Kart DS and Tetris DS.
I registered Mario Strikers Charged during the first year of Club Nintendo so I thought the expiration date would be renewed like the older titles did. It's only 10 coins but I would have loved to have those coins.

I'm not entirely sure as to how the whole "do reg codes expire?" thing works, but I don't believe we've ever had an item with a displayed expiration date continue to thrive AFTER that date passed.

I wonder if they'll have XL cases any time soon as rewards. I don't really want to have to buy one.
I think the Post Play surveys did renew themselves back in the old days. I always filled out most of my early registration surveys and few Post Plays, and I remember seeing the five year jump in dates on all the titles in my list, so some of those must have been Post Plays.
I'd say that this seems like evidence to show the auto-extension of older titles is over now.
Proof would come from somebody finding an unused code for one of the mentioned games and trying to enter it. Or we could try to find a game that is nearly 5 years after its launch and try to register it either within 120 days or even 7 days of the 5 year mark to see if the surveys get reduced time limits, or even if they appear at all...

I hit Platinum for next year yesterday
Feels... bad man I'm not sure how interested I'll be in the inevitable Nintendo Pencil Set
Feels... bad man
I'm not sure how interested I'll be in the inevitable Nintendo Pencil SetI have 7 games older than Mario Strikers Charged which still have valid post play surveys as they all appear on my to do list. Maybe this was done to coincide with the coin value changes that happened recently. I suppose the safe bet would be to just fill out all my post play surveys so I don't lose any more coins.

Someone grabbed the first code, but I got the second. Thanks again! That finally put me over the edge for Game and Watch Ball!
