[superpickleman]

I have so many codes to input... So many codes... And with them come the surveys, so many surveys. *shudder*

 

[The Elite]

If you haven't already you can download some free games for coins.

3DS:
Rusty's Baseball
Steel Diver Sub Wars
Pokebank

WiiU:
Lucadian Chronicles (post-play only)
Zen Pinball 2

Is this the complete list?

 

[-Horizon-]

For some reason, I feel like they might bring back some of the games from the MK8 promo as some of the rewards. I'd be amazed if they actually had legit 3DS & Wii U games up for sale next month, but for like 1,000+ coins.

They might save the bigger software titles for the final gold/platinum rewards.

I'm expecting VC and other eshop only titles for February.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Just registered a bunch of Wii/3DS/Wii U games at home, and I now have 1000 coins. I think I have a couple left back at my dorm, but I don't think I'll get much higher unless I buy a couple of older games.

Anyone else slip up with the post-play surveys? I lost about 300 coins worth from expired surveys.

I use to set an alert on my phone to go off exactly a week later so I wouldn't miss any. It sounds incredibly nerdy , but I didn't want to miss those coins.

 

[Sealtest]

If we don't get physical rewards this year I'd love Shantae and the Pirates curse for WII U to be an option for digital. ( I know it won't be :< )

 

[LGom09]

Is this the complete list?

Looking through my history, I got 10 coins for Jett Rocket II: The Wrath of Taikai (Demo Version). Don't know of any others.

 

[Roto13]

I think I've only missed one post play survey. The New Super Mario Bros. 2 post play survey shows up as expired in my history.

If I miss out on a reward by 10 coins, I'm going to kick myself.

 

[Velcro Fly]

I missed both Smash ones because of the holidays. I totally forgot.

I hope that doesn't mess up my CD or Mewtwo getting

Did you do the claim thing for the CD and do you see this on your To-Do list?

 

[donny2112]

After the post-play surveys come in, should be just over 2000 coins. I'm thinking that there won't be any huge items like the Luigi Statue but probably more like clearing out the odds and ends left over from CN over the years. Despite that, still hoping the Mario Kart 7 trophies are an option. Was one of the few CN Europe items I would've really liked to get.

 

[zroid]

It would be bloody great if we got some leftover Japanese or European items. Not getting my hopes up though.

I've always wanted the Mario Pillow.

 

[SmithnCo]

I've always wanted the Mario Pillow.

CN Japan also got a sweet Kirby pillow.

Sadly it's too awesome for us to get though

 

[HawthorneKitty]

There were numerous times where I almost bought the Mario pillow off eBay.
I hope we get Rupee cushions though.

 

[Juraash]

So yesterday I entered my codes that I've been procrastinating on and got to about 70 coins from plat. Are the post play surveys for 10 coins a pop still a thing in the waining days of the service? Cause I should have enough to get platinum that way. Easier and cheaper than buying something else to get there.

 

[Zonic]

Oh man, I keep forgetting about that Mario pillow. & there's a Kirby one as well? A shame we never got either one...

 

[Hatchtag]

Site's officially in maintenance mode.

Spoiler

I already got 4 platinum accounts and a gold account lol.

EDIT: And it's out! Time to get more.
DOUBLE EDIT: Exploit still up lol.

 

[DDayton]

I don't think there's any way I'll be able to redeem all my coins for stuff. I've managed to accrue several thousand coins, and I'm fairly sure MOST game downloads that will be offered will be stuff I already have...

(What's ironic about this is that there is a good chance a chunk of the game downloads will offer CN coins...)

I suppose there is always a chance we'll get some GOOD stuff soon, and I'll be online at the right time to order it... or, perhaps, we'll get the Coins -> eShop thing Japan got.

you're doing this with the exploit? over and over?

there's no way your accounts get out of this alive lol

 

[Hatchtag]

We'll see. I (possibly stupidly) redeemed some VC games across two NNIDs, plus ordered some posters. But I didn't do the exploit at all on my main one (though I did redeem the VC games on a NNID linked to it). Right now I'm just prepping accounts for Platinum status and coins to redeem in February. I'm not even doing it very often, just whenever I happen to be browsing the internet anyways.

 

[MarkusRJR]

Steel Diver was $5 at Best Buy, kind of surprised. Is it worth many coins?

Also, do Rusty's Real Deal Baseball and Steel Diver: Sub wars give coins? I kind of want to try them out and had the thought that they might be worth coins.

Yes on both and they're both pretty decent. Rusty is one I go back to often.

 

[Pancakes R Us]

I'm seriously hoping the "Dozens" of games they adding next month aren't all tiny eShop titles and they have something good like Kid Icarus Uprising or (not going to happen) Dark Moon

Wait, has it been confirmed that they're going to add more games next month?

Thanks.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Are we still getting platinum rewards one last time?

 

[the3ye]

Are we still getting platinum rewards one last time?

Yes, a game if I remember right. Sometime in march.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Oh shit, it's not in June anymore?

 

[786110]

Watch all the games they offer be the same ones people bought for cheap in order to achieve platinum status

 

[TunaLover]

I did it once ( /.\ ), will wait until febreruary to make the last one, not sure if Nintendo would detect fake ones, but registering like 10 Wii Minis at once seems like an overkill, and an easy way to get banned.

 

[zigg]

April, actually.

I thought you could only register one Wii mini for coins. After that they register to your product list but you don't get points for it. Is that wrong? regardless I'm still 200 coins from platinum so I won't be doing it. I have too many coins to blow in Februaryand don't wanna suicide my account.

 

[zigg]

So I guess my refusal to exploit CN means that I'm going to be that much further behind with buying power for the scant physical rewards that are supposed to show up next month, despite having actually purchased a lot of games and systems for myself.

Thanks a bunch, everyone.

If it makes you feel better, you were probably never in the running unless you had tons of coins prior to this.

But yea, this is why we can't have nice things.

You always can register Wii Minis for your family accounts, you can get coins that way.

CN is down up again

I didn't use the exploit either, but I don't think you're going to get much sympathy with that attitude, lol.

 

[The Elite]

I'm tempted to do one Wii Mini exploit.

 

[Smough]

I registered a wii mini but there is no "product registration survey"
why is this happening to me ? I really need the 100 coins

 

[James31]

[Mecca]

I think that it won't be an issue; the worst that will happen is that they take 100 coins off peoples account with a Wii Mini and request some additional information (I guess the consoles pin number?) to get the coins back. The worst will be locking CN accounts :l.

I'm not sure how Nintendo could verify an actual purchase. The Wii Mini doesn't have a separate PIN#. The PIN# is the serial# on the back of the unit. Why! Nintendo! Why! :/

I'm in the same boat as you and actually doing this the legit way. I was thinking of opening my limited edition WW bundle to register the game, but now I'm thinking what's the point if people are inflating their coins. My measly 1000 or whatever I get when I'm done registering everything won't mean anything.

 

[RoninChaos]

I bought more and only new versions of games because of Club Nintendo. I hope the replacement happens quickly because I'll probably just buy used and cheaper until they do so.

Am I alone on this?

No you're not.

What's our deadline for coins? I have a ton to enter.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

I've always wanted the Mario Pillow.

I looked this up on Ebay because it would be cool as decor in my house, but it's like 60 dollars...

:/

I feel bad because the physical rewards are probably gonna go fast when they do show up, partly due to the exploit. I'll only have like 300 coins so it won't affect me but the people who bought a ton of games legit might be pissed.

 

[Chibot]

Is anyone else having trouble registering games that should still be eligible for coins?

I tried entering codes for:

Kirby's Epic Yarn
Flingsmash
Wii Party

All three gave me the "Sorry! Registration for this game has expired. Thank you for your interest in Nintendo products" message. Flingsmash and Wii Party still show up in my to-do list and are nowhere near expiration.

1200 coins remaining here, even after the recent 700 coin t-shirt. I am not thrilled.

The rewards will probably favor digital stuff they don't have to rely on inventory or shipping costs for. I'm thinking it will favor that ratio 9:1.

And What exploit? What did I miss?

I did with Sin & Punishment, but the fine print on the code's insert said sometime in 2014. So those games you mentioned sound like a similar timeframe. They probably expired sometime last year, but since Club Nintendo's database is held together with chewing gum and popsicle sticks, their To-Do lists are probably not to be trusted.

Speaking of which, does the site simple not load for anyone in Chrome? I had to install Firefox just to simply enter codes. I had this problem on PC at work and home, and even on Chrome on my iPad.

 

[Smough]

there is no survey because someone has already entered that code

I don't think so because I successfully registered the console but they didn't reward me any coins because there were no survey to fill up.

 

[TunaLover]

Did you register a Wii Mini previously? I think now is only possible register one Wii Mini per account (including family accounts) to get coins.

 

[NMFried]

Well, I finally got around to entering my 52 first party 3DS games. Ready for February!

I think you might be confused. The to-do list is for the intent to buy bonus, which doesn't really expire. It's just there as a reminder. The codes for the three games you listed have expired, though. Since around 2010, codes started expiring 4 years from their release date.
