ZeldaFreak | 3,600 Events Team · Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Of course they had to introduce one more reward before the inevitable batch of Zelda 35th anniversary rewards just to give my points balance one more huge blow, haha.

Exactly! My tank is nearly empty. Might need to make another account and grind FE Heroes again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey @DoctorEncore did you see the Nintendo Store has new apparel in faux Wii U boxes? I have not seen them. Such a weird choice. I can't imagine there is nostalgia for the Wii U like there is for older consoles. I'm gonna pass... Also, I can't believe how many rewards they are adding. It's kind of losing the novelty. Maybe Nintendo was on to something when they were just drip feeding us stuff. I kind of just stopped looking and am no longer actively gathering coins.

The shirt boxes are because that’s where those games debuted. If you buy all the shirts you will have a set of faux boxes that have each of the Mario games and the year of release along the side. It just so happens Wii U had two mainline Mario platformers! There’s also one box for the only Mario platformer on Switch, Odyssey. As for the abundance of rewards, Club Nintendo had a lot of rewards too. The difference is those were on average higher quality than these. Some of these have the level of quality I would expect from those cheap party favors they sell at Party City. If I wasn’t determined to get them all I would have passed on some already.

I'm able to re-purchase items I already have. Edited February 12, 2021 by DoctorEncore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumer | 221 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 I went ahead and spent some platinum points on that key chain. I had some that were going to expire and thought, "What the hell..." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiamiSlice | 3,089 Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 Oh there are some Bravely Default II rewards live now I'm so behind on points, it's bad news 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiamiSlice | 3,089 Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 Added the Bravely Default II poster from yesterday. Also noticed a decent number of rewards were still in stock yesterday. Great to see. Also remember there's a promotion going on right now where if you stomp on at least 1 goomba in Super Mario 35 then you will get 350 platinum points, but you have to do it by March 2nd I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Code Monkey | 2,002 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Are you saying this is something to do with your Nintendo or is this something named My Nintendo? This is the first I've heard about this, I kept skipping over this thread because I thought it was about your Nintendo. What exactly is this?

Deadeye | 1,595 Homebrew Team · Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 @Code Monkeyis the rewards program from Nintendo. It is called "my nintendo". If you have a Switch or 3DS, you can get points on physical purchases , digital purchases, certain game mission, or events. You can redeem those points for digital items or physical items, called "rewards". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadeye | 1,595 Homebrew Team · Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 You need to make an account on Nintendo.com, link your switch account to it, and then you can start earning points. Digital game purchases automatically earn points. For physical games, have the game in your Switch, with the title selected, press -, select "My Nintendo Rewards Program", and then select "Earn Gold Points". That's it. This is the part you are not going to like, you can only earn points for I believe a year after a game is released. Gold points are credits towards digital purchases and silver you can use towards rewards on my.nintendo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlternatorDelux | 59 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 That's not true, you can get points for games that are older than a year, but once you have them the points expire a year after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be claimed within first year of release is still up on Nintendo's website. Unless they have changed that policy and it is not consistent with their website pages.

AlternatorDelux | 59 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Maybe that only happens with physical games. I definately always get the gold points when I buy digital games older than that. Either that or they don't actually follow their policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlternatorDelux | 59 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Just to be sure, I checked my points history, and it shows that I earned them within the last couple of months for Aaero and Rival Megagun, both of which were released in 2018.

Deadeye | 1,595 Homebrew Team · Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 On the physical side, in the past, I have had a gold point claim not accepted due to age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tried claiming some gold points on a physical copy of Luigi's Mansion 3, which i just got in the last month or so. When I go to claim the points on the Switch (as pointed out by @Deadeye), it says that "gold coins/points redemption has expired/no longer available," or something to that effect. Got the clarification from Nintendo's website that physical copies of the game need their gold points to be redeemed within one year of its physical release. I just also got Clubhouse Games 51 and, luckily, was still within the time period to get its gold points for the physical version. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Code Monkey | 2,002 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I understand the gold / silver coins to reduce cost of purchases but how are people getting physical items as rewards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
