So Club Nintendo was available two times today. It was up, then down, then up, then back to the coming soon page where it is now. I managed to register and get 90 points. Each DS game was 30 points. I'm not sure about Wii games, but I'm assuming 30 or more. When Club Nintendo went back down, I went and grabbed all my registration papers from my Wii and DS boxes (just look for games with the Nintendo logo). I've got 30 papers right here, so I'll have enough for Game & Watch! :D

Yay!!! The novelty quickly wears off.... trust us Europeans.

You get nearly 10,000 points saved up over the years and the only thing in the store available to buy are crappy plastic pencil tops or freely available elsewhere 'desktop wallpapers'....

Yea, it's not a great service. It used to be snazzy before people picked it up. A while back you could have got some Zelda Collectors Disc for the GC that had Zelda I, II, OoT and Majora's Mask. That was the peak back in 2004. Now it's just cack.

The free gifts are quite nice though. When you register a game they give you free songs, free desktops and such.

It's up now. I just converted my old Nintendo account to the new club. I'm getting ready to re-register my games now - wish it would have retained the information already on file.

ETA: Incorrect info up top. It actually does retain your old info. You don't have to re-register your old games.

It's pretty slow. I have a ton of cards right here but I can barely log in. Anyway... I'll have enough for Game & Watch DS. Should I grab it?

It's got a pretty big issue right now. It mostly doesn't accept my password, sometimes it works.

I'd love to check it out, but I want to login with my old My Nintendo login, and apparently I can't remember my username? I reset my password, but none of the usernames I would have possibly used work. Have they actually migrated all the old logins over?

Create a new account with your old username. It'll be like "oh, you have mynintendo, blah blah blah". Also, the site is screwy and it's hard to log in anyway.

Ah gee. :eek: They didn't make they clear. I thought I was supposed to login with my old information. But I got it now. Look! They automagically added World of Goo to my games list. The surveys to earn coins are kind of annoying though.

I also ordered Game & Watch. Now I hope those platinum prizes this year are good :).
