Important Information on Club Nintendo Program Discontinuation

Dear Club Nintendo Members,

Thank you for your continued loyalty to Nintendo.

We launched Club Nintendo 6 years ago in North America, and we’re grateful for all of the feedback that our members have provided on your experiences with our products.

In order to focus on planning for a new customer loyalty program for our fans, we’ve decided to wind-down the Club Nintendo program. We are deeply thankful to our members for being a part of Club Nintendo for all of these years.

We will share details about our new program at a later date. For now, please see the schedule below for information on the discontinuation timeframe for Club Nintendo.

All Coins will be deleted when Club Nintendo accounts are closed on July 1, 2015. As a result, to give our members the best opportunity to use their Coins, we will add dozens of downloadable games and a limited quantity of exclusive reward items to the rewards catalog in February. In addition, as a small token of appreciation for your loyalty, all Club Nintendo members will receive a free download code for Flipnote Studio 3D in February 2015. Please visit here for information on the software and how to get the download code.

I think I'm short of the Gold status sadly. I never saw anything that would work for the amount of coins I have. I wonder if any of the items will be at a lower cost for me to cash out with.

They are going to add some stuff in February before it ends
 
Good, this program was close to being complete shit and confusing to kids anyway. Why did some games come with coins and others didn't? Why were all the decent physical rewards out of stock? Some of the digital rewards were simply crap I wouldn't have spent $1 on anyway. Why was doing the account setup for this such a clusterfuck to originally setup (it was a different account than the account I made on the Wii U)? Could you even manage and add new games to Club Nintendo from the console itself? And why the heck did I have to take a SURVEY to get my free copy of Wind Waker last year?

Nintendo should stop trying to be clever about shit and just give people what they want. Access to cheap games from Nintendo's back catalog. It would be awesome if everytime I bought a Wii U game, I got a free NES/SNES game from their store.

i actually liked the program , but it was confusing to some people i guess. I got some pretty cool stuff from it.
 
I think I'm sitting at 290 coins right now, so I really should go for my gold status before it expires.

As for the program itself - yeah, it was pretty confusing but I got a few neat things out of it (a couple of old games, some Wii-mote straps, etc). I heard the euro version of Club Nintendo was pretty sweet though- limited edition controllers, that sorta thing.

Still, looking forward to the new loyalty program - I'm thinking it'll be more streamlined and easier to access than Club Nintendo.
 
Yay, Platinum last year and nothing good to get. The Zelda posters NEVER came back in stock. I love how NOA half asses everything.
I wish they would just copy whatever NOE does, since NOA is so incompetent at everything, even a simple promotion.
Do you know what NOE did a few weeks ago? This beauty for Club Nintendo members:

What do we get? OH, we don't even get the regular size 3DS, just the laptop gorilla version.
And maybe ANOTHER copy of stupid Balloon Fight. I hate that stupid game. I have 3 different versions of it from stupid "promotions"
It's like they want me to hate them. Fuck NOA.
 
NOA is punishing us because people won't buy the Wii U, even though it has better games than the competition.
 
I received a bunch of stuff from the Club. Last year I got a Luigi's Mansion statue, 3 card cases (best reward), Majora's mask OST, a Wii controller holder, a few posters, and free game downloads like Donkey Kong Returns. Well worth the time to register your games and get those free gifts.
 
I wish they would just put the new items up so I can spend my points. I have ~1500 points to blow, and I don't want to waste them on things I already have on another platform if something good is going to get put up in February like the message on the site says.

I've owned all three major consoles (sold the PS4) and I agree.

There isn't much on the U but when there is I crack out on it until I beat it. Can't say that about other games. The XB1 gets used to play Peggle 2 and I only play that after watching my girlfriend play it so much
