Time to poo poo this thread up with my wii u pad drama.

My old neighbor was a heroin addict and broke and and stole some poo poo, of which was a guitar, a wii u pad, and the copper pipes in our basement.

We got the guitar back from the pawn shop but the wii u pad was already flipped I guess so now I need one of those fuckers.

Haven't unpacked the wii u console yet and I'm not looking forward to it. The only games I have are new Mario, Zelda, and Mario Kart. Does the system even function without the tablet or can I play games?

If not I gotta start looking at where to get another one of these fuckers

If you didn't turn it on yet then you're hosed. Otherwise you could get away with using the Pro Controllers/Wii remotes. Try calling Nintendo about it.

P.S. Murder the poo poo out of your old neighbor though.

I mean I got a bunch of free downloadable games, all of them good, and a majora's mask soundtrack. That's not bad stuff to have for simply buying games you were gonna get regardless.

Hope the new program is good. I'll miss you club nintendo and your assorted crapshoot reward selections.

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.

Except you get shafted by registration windows closing, like I have 100 never redeemable coins from stuff like mario 3d world

Good. I was tired of having to constantly explain to them why I wanted to play the millionth Mario sequel just to get some plastic garbage or 20 year old rom at the end of the year. I'm sure that my answers were far from helpful anyway.

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.

North america sells more 3dses than everywhere in the world that is not japan combined tho

I spent 200 coins on the NES Legend of Zelda, and now they announced"dozens" more games coming before the end and I kind of regret it. I bet I have shitloads of old unredeemed codes lying around

Free games are more useful to me than like a shirt or whatever. I own clothes thanks.

What source would you say was the most influential in your purchase decision?

> telepathic message
> anonymous smoke signal
> brief cameo in your favorite tv show

If Donkey Kong on Game Boy is still up there, snag it with your coins before it goes away. one of my favorites.

i'm boring & love filling poo poo out so the idea of doing that AND getting rewarded with novelty nintendo crap was honestly pretty appealing, although i'm sure whatever new rewards system that gets put in place will be an improvement. they did a pretty poor job of advertising CN and nobody i know who plays games even knew it existed, so im not surprised it finally kicked the bucket lol.

had a copy of kirby's dreamland sitting around i borrowed from a friend years ago, the code was still valid for it and i nabbed 50 coins. just need 70 more for gold. im sure i'll have another 20 for punch-out tomorrow.

do they do post-play surveys for Mario Galaxy 2? if so I need to play that a bit more for that little coin bump.

Club Nintendo kinda sucked anyway. Apparently Nintendo's also pulling out of Brazil for being "too expensive or something."

Anyway, does anyone have any codes they don't mind parting with? I'm 80 coins away from the Smash posters.

Pretty much, I mean, I did get a gold nunchuk and a game and watch, but over several years that was like the only stuff ever worth it.
