I really want that Yoshi cloth and a color XL charger to arrive.

I want the 3DS Card Case back in stock.
This. I'm now have enough coins and waiting for it to return. I'll get two case.

Of course. I understand it's logic, I just find it amusing when I see it in print. It's kind of jarring.
It really is. Always gave me a fright back when I first joined the Club.
WHAT WHY AM I BEING CHARGED $500? er, right...
Just be glad they ship it to us from within Canada or else we'd be fucked on taxes. :lol
If there's one thing I can guarantee, it's that if this comes to NA, it'll be way more than 200 coins
Usually the same rewards cost about 50-100% more in NA coins than they do in the Japanese point system.
So I registered a ton of old games yesterday because I just got a CN account a few days ago and I saw that some of the codes have expiration dates. (Canvas Curse turned out to be the only dead one, though...) Stopped when I hit Platinum.
...Am I reading it right that I'll be getting some unholy number of post-play surveys in about a week, even though at least one of these titles was from the Wii launch? @__@

The 1$=1 coin always makes me feel a bit sick when I look at my price redemptions despite knowing it's not actually an exact 1:1 thing.

What are the chances they're giving a full 3DS game for plat?

Unlikely, but you never know. Would definitely be cool.

Would hope it's a better selection than the XL promotion.

That was me.
I noticed the image host I used seems to have kicked the bucket. So here it is again.
I used a 12" x 16" frame, white bristol board for the backing and some double sided sticker squares.
It cost roughly $30 for the above materials with the frame being $25 of that.
Looks like I finally found a use for my cards. They're the only thing I ever got from Club Nintendo besides the calendars.
Not likely if you're in the US. Those prizes from this past year were total shit, like they weren't even trying.

I took Metroid. Pure ass for a Gold prize.
Yeah, I read in the OP that post-play surveys expire in 120 days so I'm glad I can put them off. I bought some newer titles off eShop and was expecting the surveys for those, I'm just a little surprised that they'd still send them out for the old games. Thanks.

I know it's not much but they didn't launch the full 3DS download service until after last year's rewards were revealed. They've been pushing it pretty hard the last few months with promotions so there's a little hope I think.

And what could they giveaway? Steel Diver? >_>

Pilotwings or Starfox would be nice. Can't believe the former is still a full 40 bux though
Boss Doggie

Yeah I wouldn't mind their old 3DS games.

I would take a version of Nintendogs + Cats. That's a game that hasn't popped up in any promotions for Nintendo.
Macho Madness

You guys didn't grab Pilotwings when it was $5 at Best Buy?
Chance Hale
Member
Damn, would have bought several at that price for the club nintendo points. Or can you not do that? I've never tried registering multiple copies of the same game. Can register unlimited systems so maybe?

Systems I think you can, but for games you're better off using child accounts on a family account.
I tried, like Rhythm Heaven for the Wii, but they cancelled my order on me.
Oh that sucks man. This is why I only trust in-store stuff there.
DidntKnowJack
Member
You can't really do that. Hardware? Yes. Individual games? No.
Unless you make your CN account a family account. But even in that case each person in that collective account, each with their own username, can only register any given game once. So technically if you had 5 copies you could create a family account, then create 4 additional user names tied to that account, then register one game per account.
Boy, that sounds more complicated than it actually is.
Macho Madness

Yeah, it's really only a couple of clicks. Explaining it is a nightmare though.
Family accounts can now have up to eight members. Pretty nice if you get a bunch of codes from(or legitimately purchase multiple copies of) the same game.
Or worked at/knew someone kind who worked at gamestop when they got rid of all the DS cases.
I know someone with a stack of codes as thick as a dictionary.

I'm like 100 coins away from being able to afford a Gold nunchuck, and I haven't spent them on any of the digital games so that I can get the controller. Do you guys think that there's a chance that it'll ever come back again, or should I spend them on something else?
I really wish Nintendo would do more physical accessories like that. At least for the Platinum prize, if nothing else.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
So let's say NOA doesn't get those multicolor XL docks, do the Japanese ones work with US power cords at all?
It should just act as a passthru from your cord to the system. Even if the voltages were different, a plug for a US 3DS is going to send the proper amount of power through the dock. The dock isn't generating power, just redirecting it.
I would hold on to your coins as long as there's no risk of them expiring any time soon. You never know when the next epic item might come out only to disappear within a day, so it's good to have your coins ready to pounce on it.
No. Not for another three months.

I have multiple Post Play Surveys which expire July 1st. Would I be safe waiting until that day to do them?

So I never realized they had a post-play survey for all of the Ambassador games, and I just recently got around to downloading all of them.
I missed out on a lot of extra coins

I'm the latest victim of the website's To-Do List bug. Had a mini-freak-out when it said "Looks like you're all done here." I loaded the Earn Coins page and then the main page again and my 67-item list was back. I have 350 coins worth of post-play surveys chilling there, so I'd be upset to lose them.
Huh? The microfiber cloth is not that big, and even so I fold it in half and it fits perfectly between the screens. Maybe you just have a small one...? Cloth I mean.
edit: To illustrate what I'm talking about:
Damn, perfect size. Where did you buy that?
I had been using one that came with my glasses cleaner. it was big enough for my 3DS but not the xl.

I don't remember where I got it, it was quite awhile ago. It may have come with some kit for my launch PSP, or the PSP itself. I really don't remember. However, they can easily be had, just do a search for 'microfiber cloth' on Amazon.
Back OT, when do the new rewards come out every month? Digital rewards, that is.

I'm not sure it's always the same day, but new rewards should appear on April 7th.
Should be on Monday! My coins are ready.

So after registering and surveying like mad I have 1000 points and platinum status? Are VC discounts the way to go or are the cards really that cool? Bear in mind Im a father of a 6 mo old so the cards may get destroyed at some point

If you're talking about the playing cards from the Platinum reward, you can't get those any more anyway. You needed to register all of that stuff before July of last year to qualify.
You're all set for whatever they give away this year, though.
