Wave 1 Reward (Closed)
 

Spoiler

 

  • This reward is a simple, but attractive, collectible pin set (see picture below) that is limited in number and (was supposed to be) relatively easy to obtain. Most of the requirements are modest, but you must purchase a copy of Super Mario 3D All-Stars to be eligible. If you're already planning to do that, then you might as well spend ten minutes to complete four additional tasks and claim your prize.

Wave 2 Reward - More Pins! Also, Why Is This Official Image Such Terrible Quality?

wave-2-pins.jpg

This set includes a Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary pin and pins featuring Mario from:

  • Super Mario Sunshine
  • Super Mario Galaxy
  • New Super Mario Bros. U
  • Super Mario 3D World
  • Super Mario Odyssey

Requirements

  • Note: Fifteen eligible missions, including the “Purchase the Super Mario™ 3D World + Bowser's Fury game” mission, must be completed before being eligible to receive the pins.

    Pin sets are available in limited quantities. Codes for pin sets will be distributed after the launch of the Super Mario™ 3D World + Bowser's Fury game.

 

Previous Updates

Spoiler

 

UPDATE 9/18/20 - How to Register Physical Software

Spoiler

 

Just a reminder to everyone getting your physical copy today: Don't forget to register your cart so you can earn gold coins and receive credit for the mission.

It's not a particularly intuitive process, but directions are here: https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22312/kw/Register games/p/989

Basically you need to press the + or - button when the game is inserted and the icon is highlighted on the home screen. Scroll down to the bottom of the menu, highlight My Nintendo Rewards Program, and click through until you get credit.

You WILL NOT receive credit right away and it may take up to 48 hours. I'll update here when my mission shows as complete.

Hopefully there are plenty of pin sets to go around!

 

 

UPDATE 9/20/20 - Pin Availability

Spoiler

 

Pins will be available on 9/21/20 at 12p PDT/3PM EDT. The claims process has not been detailed, but expect a code to be provided on the rewards page. Based on other Nintendo Rewards, you may have to pay $5 shipping, but I will update when I know.

UPDATE 9/24/20 - Checkout now working for credit card errors?

Spoiler

If you had a pin in your cart and couldn't finish checkout due to a credit card error, I recommend trying again. The system seems to be working now. It's unclear if stock actually remains, but I was able to checkout last night.

  • The title was changed to Super Mario 35th Anniversary - Complete Nintendo Missions to Earn an SMB Collectible Pin Set

Nice.

I see you hid your location in the most nefarious location possible. Right in front of my eyeballs. Bastard.

Looking more closely, the rules linked on the mission website seem to be specifically for the "My Nintendo Super Mario Sweepstakes." I'm guessing they also apply to the pin set. Or maybe it's just a giant worldwide free-for-all.

Oh well, I live in America! Go me!

Nice to see Nintendo finally giving North America some love 😄 I know of 3 other physical rewards at the moment: a Xenoblade Chronicles phone ring holder thingy, Xenoblade sticker sheets, and a Splatoon 2 postcard set. I believe they also announced another physical reward that was Splatoon 2-related during that Mario Direct. So yeah, My Nintendo physicals are a thing now. This is actually super exciting, hopefully this becomes the new norm 🙂

That's right, I forgot about those since they're a bit different than this one. I believe you use platinum points to purchase those, so they really are just like the old Club Nintendo stuff. Times are changing!

Well, if they have an additional wave or two or a special, final reward for doing something like completing every objective, I'm screwed.  I just downloaded the MK app and after downloading the in-game update, I'm getting an error.  Searching for help online, it looks like the only way people have been able to fix it is to create a new Nintendo account.  I can't/won't do that.

Well, at least I pre-order Mario Allstars 3D.  Hopefully I won't get screwed for not being able to complete this one task. 😕

Anyone else getting error codes from Mario Kart Tour? Every time I try to boot it up I get an error code.

 

Yes, I was getting them.  I assume you're getting the same one I saw. I deleted and reloaded the app.  Maybe they are having server errors.  I'll try back again later tonight or tomorrow.  Let us know if you get past this issue.

I installed and played on Saturday with no issues on Android. Only funky thing is that you won't get immediate credit for playing (as I noted in OP). 

Maybe check Reddit? They already had several threads about the missions when I looked up info regarding Mario Kart Tour credit.

This is exactly where my searched ended up.  I didn't drill through many of the google results, but the top two for from different reddit posts, people seeing the same error but no one solved it (other than creating a new Nintendo account which, again, I'm not doing.)

@RegularGuyGamer  In my case, I know I had downloaded this game before when it first came out.  At that time I had an iPhone and now I have an Android.  I wonder if within Nintendo's account database they have a different device ID attached to my account.  In my case, my phone completely died, so I can't download it again on it.  Is there a chance you, too, downloaded this game a while ago and have a newer phone as well?  Maybe that's our problem?

It's the same phone and everything. I've had it downloaded since the release I just hadn't kept up with it. I guess the error I was getting was a server error. I'm going to keep trying, I'd like to get those pins. 

Just a reminder, that task is optional. You just need to complete 5 of 6 missions with one being the purchase of 3D All-Stars. Obviously we don't know anything about later waves, but you should be good for the pins even if you can't get Kart Tour to work. I definitely wouldn't create a new Nintendo account.

Is that all I need to do for the phone app?  Just complete a race?

I think so.  I went ahead and got enough stars to reach the first tier of the tour rewards (that icon right in the middle of the bottom row of icons).  Then I went to check the rewards list to see it I qualified and it says that you won't be awarded credit until the 29th.  So I guess there is no way to even see if you've done what it wanted until it ends.
