I'll be keyboard stalking that Game & Watch, don't want to have to choose doing without or dealing with a douchebag scalper as it's a matter of principle to just do without before giving anyone that despicable a damn thing. 🙂

I'm showing reward clear, and for those who may not be and relying on that lame mobile game it said it posts on the 29th.

I'm gonna be honest.  If this isn't just a bug in the system, I'm a little pissed off right now.

I'd almost be willing to be this is just another case where Nintendo assume "Oh, I dunno... maybe 10,000 gamers will care about this. Derp, derp, derp." and then, you know, 10,000,000 showed up and tried to get a silly set of pins.

I swear, it's like they have no clue that people actually like and love their products.

Can someone clarify, I'm late to the party and I just did the Mario Kart Tour thing (I think) and it says on the website you won't get credit fo rthat until 9/29. Was that bogus? Did people get credit for it early? So confused.

You only had to do 4/5 missions plus buy Super Mario 3D All-Stars in order to get the pins. Doing the Mario Kart Tour thing wasn't necessary if you did everything else.

It sounds like people are simply having trouble finishing the process.  But, in my case, I just logged in and as you can see from my screenshot, I can't even get a reward code.  I get an "I'm sorry but, oh my! We didn't know what we were doing and you missed this!"  Which is sad.   I registered my game Friday.  The Nintendo Gold showed up immediately. I checked the Missions page 4-5 time throughout the weekend and it didn't post that I had met the mission until today.  Now, when I check it, I've missed out?!  Again, I hope this is just a bug.  They didn't say this was limited quantity so this can't be right.

And to be clear, I'm less upset about possibly not getting these cool trinkets as I am about the poor attention to customer experience.  My inner Karen comes out with crap like this.  This is such a cool idea and a great PR move except when they play that Uno Reverse card of awesomeness.  This is just annoying and alienates your customer base.

I was able to secure it.  I checked the website about 30 mins prior to the opening time listed.

Congrats dude! I got there about 20 minutes early and hit the brick wall at checkout. I suppose it's possible I've already "claimed" mine, so I will be able to checkout when the website recovers, but I'm not holding my breath.

As @RH said, I'm much more annoyed at the usual Nintendo incompetence than I am about not getting a little trinket.
