    That would be a pretty silly thing to do and defeats the purpose of the deal. But it has nothing to do with the fact they give you the chance to get free items in the Club.

    Nothing of what you said really voids my first statement here. They are giving free stuff, which is a nice thing. Now, if we were spoiled, ungrateful brats, I guess the only way to cease our whining would be to make all games cost $0 and include 1000 coins each. Everyone would be happier, I'm sure. Heavenly and quite impractical, tho.

    I must need 3D glasses, Rad Racer, and a Power Glove to see it.
    Are there power gloves available?
    New ones I mean...used would be like second-hand anal beads.

    Spoiler warning:

    The site is seriously buggy right now because millions of people are hammering it, cause the physical rewards might sell out. If you just want a digital reward, wait a few days or a week and the mass errors will let up. Digital rewards won't sell out and will available for several months.

    I may have signed up an extra account and picked up 800 free coins myself Come on Animal Crossing cards~ I'm not going for any more free coins cause I'd need more real mailing addresses But if you want digital rewards, you can make up addresses.
    Nah I'm not that evil XD I will just get a job and pay for the games the good and honest way...or wait till a 3DS emulator comes around/homebrew apps to do it for me hehehe.
    Layin down enjoying the fun unleashing the power of the sun and capturing them all until I'm done.

    Giving this a bump. European members now have a pile of stuff to cashout on:

    Also it's worth noting, NoA never did ban the piles of users that abused CN to get digital rewards. But ban hammered accounts that ordered physical goods. Like I may have done with a second account Ah well, I still have 10 days to uhh, do some other things

    Hm, I never had registered any of my stuff, including my 3DS. Too bad I don't still have the box for my old DSi XL because I only got up to 440 coins, was hoping to get up high enough to grab Paper Mario.

    I can't even settle for wrapping paper! Apparently one of those UK exclusives.

    EDIT: And I just realized that about half of my games are digital format. I'll have to go about figuring out how to register them, since they seem to be listed as eligible elsewhere on the CN site.

    If you tether your CN account to your Nintendo account the surveys should just pop in. Instructions:
    https://club.nintendo.com/link-shop-...uest_locale=en

    Also, you'll get post-play surveys a week after doing a purchase survey, and those are worth an extra 10 coins each. So try to get all your purchase surveys in ASAP.

    Bwahaha, Nintendo is sending out physical rewards to banned accounts, I got a confirmation email today. There was no downside to generating a pile of Wii Mini accounts All their banning did was stop abusers from collecting platinum rewards, which were pretty crappy compared to what abuse earned.

    I got platinum but my options are limited by the fact that I only own 1 Nintendo system and I own most of the games offered already. Trololol.

    You can just sell/trade your platinum reward away online. Reddit's the place to go to scam and be scammed with code trading trololol It's like a meta-game with your games

    I just grabbed Tropical Freeze because it was the only full priced retail game. I already owned every game I wanted, including Tropical Freeze which is luckily still sealed.

    I would've liked it if Ages/Seasons was a pair. CN was fucking stingy with the platinum rewards. I expected way more selection than what they offered. They could've at least offered a bunch of the expensive coin reward games to pad the selection.

    Ah well, I'm gonna flip my Mewtwo codes. Looks like I should get something in the $50 ballpark for the pair, that's crazy.

    Edit: Got $29USD. I never did buy Smash Wii U, and Smash 3DS cost me $32CAD. So I basically got Smash 3DS and the soundtrack for free
