People complained about Club Nintendo's digital offerings nearly every month.

My Nintendo hasn't been operating for very long but Club Nintendo did not have as much fun month-to-month content as people seem to think, a lot of it was rotated back in and back out again and again. The only reason I got anything good out of the end-of-CN promotion is because I had nothing to spend my coins on until then because the digital rewards were always the same VC games and Wiiware/DSiWare titles being shuffled in and out again and again. I feel like that one tower defense game for DSi was almost always a reward it used to be the joke that Urban Champion 3D was the defacto giveaway

Anyone who can make this comment seriously was not taking advantage of Club Nintendo if that is their viewpoint or live in a country where the program wasn't as good as it was in the countries where it was good. My Nintendo is poo poo in comparison.

I think a lot of people waited until the end because there was a lot of buyers remorse every month. People remember the end being good because there was a large selection, and no reason to hold onto your coins since you knew it was going away.

You guys are treating the EU and US Club Nintendos as one and it's hard to figure out which one you're complaining about/praising respectively. I liked the EU one a lot, US seemed pretty meh in comparison

Club Nintendo EU was pretty good, yeah, I got a nice Wario key chain nine years ago that I'm still using.

NOA confirmed they'll be doing a sales promo over E3:quote:Nintendo eShop sale: Starting at 11 a.m. PT until 8:59 a.m. PT on June 21, Nintendo is offering discounts on some of its most popular games as a special treat for fans. My Nintendo members who are signed in will also get a special bonus if they buy select games included in the sale. Anyone who hasn’t signed up for My Nintendo yet is encouraged to do so now to avoid the E3 rush. To get the extra discount, My Nintendo members must link their Nintendo Account to their Nintendo Network ID and access Nintendo eShop on their device at least once before they make a purchase. The discounted games can be purchased in Nintendo eShop or at http://e3.nintendo.com. Details about the discounts can also be found at http://e3.nintendo.com.

Yeah, but with My Nintendo, you can't even save your coins for longer than 6 months, so it's not like it will even ever have an equivalent to those end of days.

Such a poo poo sale though. A whole bunch of virtual console stuff most people already own the majority of, and a handful of eShop exclusives of a sliding scale of quality. Like who was even asking for Pokedex 3D Pro to be put on sale.

Underwhelming compared to the amazing list of games Japan got. But here's hoping E3 sale pulls it together with some games worth buying.

The eshop sale is digital only titles, which is why it's so bad. I think/hope the e3 sale will mimic the Japanese one and be available in Europe as well

I just think there's a lot of people who think of Club Nintendo in a much better light because their most recent memory was dozens of good games to choose from.

Nintendo, give us a Wario & Waluigi larceny-based rogue-lite, dammit. Looting your way through procedurally generated castles where Wario is more combat-oriented and Waluigi is more stealth-oriented. All the Wario-Ware side characters are back at the hideout that you build up and upgrade X-COM style. I'm begging you, Nintendo, please.

Club Nintendo was better since coins didn't expire so fast and I could use physical copies for points. The games will probably be the same in the end but stop giving me useless platinum coins. Or make platinum coins worth more than a discount that amounts to less than 10 bucks for basically watching advertisements and giving them my social media accounts for data mining.

I'm wondering if we'll see retail copy codes and better prizes/rewards return with NX games before calling My Nintendo entirely crap. I mean it is, but more rushed out way too soon than outright stupid if so.

In the German (European?) My Nintendo you can now buy a 50% coupon for Kirby's Dream Course for 25 gold coins, available until June 22nd. 15 coins (you should get 10 for buying the game) for a 4€ discount is actually not bad
