Nintendo treats its fans... Only in Japan though |
Ó
We all know that Japan is Nintendo's biggest market, and in true sense, this is where most of its hardcore gamers are found. So it was only a matter of time till Nintendo decided to treat its fans to something a bit special. For these fans, and again we state, only in Japan, Nintendo have opened up the Club Nintendo site. The essence of this is for registered gamers go to spend some hard earned points. These points are earned from purchasing Nintendo's goods, mainly games, and the tariffs change for various titles. So whats up for grabs you ask, well some rare and useful goods. These range from stylish DS Lite cases, notebooks, tape rolls and game storage racks. But of most importance is the Game & Watch cartridge for the DS. In this special edition release, Donkey Kong, Oil Panic and Green House are contained as a 3-in-1 game selection in double screen modes. This is available for 500 points, and would probably earn a fair dab on online auctions.

thats so unfair why are nintendo treating japan when they have already suceded over there.
where as in europe where appereantly the console war will be decide all we get are lousy computer screensavers, wallpapers and ringtones
I agree with the person above. Thanks a bunch Nintendo. I have over 10,000 VIP points on Nintendo UK. I'd have a lot more if i could be bothered to register more games. What can i spend them on? Completely useless wallpapers and screensavers. I don't even see my desktop wallpaper that often and i don't give a flying toss about my screensaver, after all, the whole point in a screensaver is to save your screen when you aren't there... Very usefull... not.
we ocassionally get the chance for something..I got my original european DS a month before anyone else in europe, cost me 1000 stars and £125.
Also got Zelda collectors edition and super mario sunshine for free (well, 4000 stars each)
Just a case of being luck and getting them when they appereared on the site ¬_¬
Yes we did get that Zelda 2 pack bit, a pink colored standard stylus for Kirby(bfd), 3free NP mags, and a couple other small non-memorable things over the great many years.
In all we just get buddy icons, wallpapers and screensavers too. I really can't figure why outisde of Japan Nintendo seems fully unwilling to try and give something back to the big 1st party spenders. To me it is a great thanks and also by word of mouth gets MORE people to buy stuff. Just seems very cheap, stupid, and in some ways cowardly to treat the customer base like that. So, I hear ya completely euros/uk'rs.
