I was hoping they would offer eShop cards like they are in Japan, but this still owns. I can buy my girlfriend a bunch of free games when I give her my 3DSXL :)

Thanks to my hoarding of Club Nintendo codes like a dragon hoards treasures, I have 2100+ coins to burn, so I guess I'm getting some good poo poo. Provided the site comes back up.

Of course I'm 35 coins shy of Wonderful 101, really regretting that copy of Kirby's Dream Land 3 now. Going to have to find some eShop stuff to buy I guess, probably when the site stops exploding.

I picked up Metroid earlier in the year, which is now making me decide between Link's Awakening and Super Metroid. I can't decide. (On second thought, I'm pretty sure metroid gave me my last DDP credit).

That is pretty meh. Probably going to be the best Coin::$ converter, though. Was hoping for a big ticket item like the Luigi Mansion statue from last year, 2,000 coins to burn.

Going back and forth on the messenger bag. Anyone had experience with older Club Nintendo messenger bags? It looks cool, but the chance to not spend money on Kid Icarus: Uprising or NSMB2 is pretty tempting.

Similarly, can anyone speak to the quality of the XL pouch?

Picked up the messenger bag to carry poo poo to dnd night at the local bar. And doc Louis' punch out, because it was an exclusive I missed and the only punch out game I didn't have.

If it's the same bag they had before, but with a different design I wouldn't do it.
It's very wimpy and not anywhere near the same weight or quality as their canvas tote bags.

Wondering the same here. I really regret getting the GB Kid Icarus now. Coins down the drain that I coulda used to get something way better.

EDIT: Also, the site is in maintenance mode now.

If you like Punchout, then get Doc Louis's Punchout as it will never be available again*

Site is super slow for me, so I'll wait a bit. I'm actually really surprised that they did this so early in the month; I was expecting a few more weeks at minimum.

I was hoping that they would offer the GBA remake of Super Mario World, as I prefer that one to the original SNES version in every way except for one stupid change that they made. Still, they brought out the GBA remake on Christmas of last year, so I'm not too surprised.

I have a feeling that I may end up buying games just to buy games... with the exception of Super Metroid, none of the games, VC or otherwise, on my wish list made it onto the rewards.

This is correct. Everything else will be available in the future and is relatively cheap and Doc Louis' Punch-Out!! hasn't been available for years and almost certainly never will be again.

Looks like I'll be picking up The Wonderful 101...now what to speed my 400 leftover coins on. If nothing else, I'll snag another card case if they're still around when the site stops making GBS threads all over itself.

Edit: Well, guess I'm waiting. Site just crashed completely.

You can't re-enter fortresses and castles after you beat them until you've finished off Bowser. Considering that this version included Yoshi Coins as a trackable side-goal, I think that that was really stupid. On the SNES, there was a semi-secret way to go back into those stages by pressing L and R simultaneously.

Still, I much prefer the GBA version. Luigi (the superior brother) is playable, you don't become little if you take a hit with a cape feather or fire flower, and a bunch of other little things. Flying with the cape is still a right pain in the arse, though.

If you're just looking to get games there's nothing stopping you from waiting a day or two for the rush to die down and deal with a working site once all the physical items are sold out.

So is Doc Louis' Punch Out basically just a demo? I'm taking a look and it it seems like it's just three modes with Doc Louis as the opponent.

Yes there will be rewards. Yes you may still redeem codes, there just won't be new ones.
