I still have a Mario figurine from like 6 years ago. Luigi is missing his head and Bowser is missing an arm.

Always felt the Club Nintendo was super subpar here in Australia the best reward I can recall is that SNES controller that plugged into your wiimote like a classic controller, and I missed it.

The only things I claimed is the Mario and Luigi hat pencil cases, I was gonna get the 3DS stand but Nintendo are teasing us with promises of something cool in the next few months?! (Probably Mario Party 10 playing cards)

yeah the past couple of years were kind of lackluster, but I'm glad i got in on those Hanafuda cards and that one year Plat users got clear Mario playing cards.

Wonder what the new program will be?

Club Nintendo has historically been poo poo in the UK, the good stuff always sold out in under 10 seconds thanks to having all of Europe to fight against for it.

Sucks, but I think I've only really bothered to get one or two of the gifts and the end of the year platinum stuff. Hope whatever they got planned after this ends up being even better.

I never bothered with this stuff but maybe I should try to use it before it goes away?
it's just like roms of random old game boy games or something right?
I have 3 boxed 3DS games with codes in them (the rest of my stuff is from eShop), can I expect to get anything from them?

I unironically would give them to some random goon if there is nothing I care about on club nintendo
like how many 3DS game codes are worth one rom of an early 90s game for the game boy or whatever?

not doing one of the after play surveys is really dicking me over now because i have 110 coins to go.

i didn't think it was going to be a huge deal considering their upcoming release schedule but they wont be eligible for coins.

I never used my points because the box just wouldn't feel complete without the manual and all the little inserts.

Are you under the impression that the paper disintegrates after you use the code? :confused:

Set the world aflame!
So I should enter my huge stockpile of codes and cash out. Or hang onto them in case they can be used with the new rewards system? I'll probably just do the former and hope I can get some neat things.

This game is perfect for empty-headed dunces that don't like to think much!! Of course, I'm a genius... I wonder why I'm so good at it?!

I think I read that they were planning on adding extra stuff to use your coins on so people can spend their remaining balances. That sounds like to me that they aren't going to transfer to the new system.

Never mind I didn't know that systems and eShop games do count. so I probably have enough to get platinum, may as well see what comes out for it this year.

It's the Final Countdown.
Considering how shafted both Europe and North America got in comparison to Japan's Club Nintendo program, I'm looking forward to seeing the new customer benefit program.
