Guess I'll have to dig out all my console codes that I've been squandering then and get them registered. Apparently more items will be released on CN Stars catalogue between now and September though, so do I wait and see what gets released or just grab anything I can afford!? >.<
Bastards.
I'm really gutted that they're doijg this. That does explain why my Ambassador N3DS didn't come with a VIP code though.
