I think for now I'll spend some on the Zelda poster set we just got in store and keep an eye on eBay for the Japanese nunchuk!

Oh, I know, but I'm not too worried about reaching 600 again for next year, haha. I buy too many games!
I just wish we'd get stuff like figures and statues. Guess I'll hold on to most of them just in case!

I guess I'm a fan of ALL consoles.
Though if I had to pick one, it would be Sega. Of course they don't make them anymore, but hey.

What is this Gold/Platinum status thing? Do you win a prize?

And 600 points? I have 2500 at the moment xx

I'm not sure that we have gold/platinum status in Europe...
And the value of the point is also different... I think that 600points in Japan is more something like 7000points in Europe...

These are Site that reward customers for purchasing Nintendo Games.

When you purchase the games you get points which you can redeem for free items such as games, soundtracks, figurines, etc

Here is the UK one: http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/...ogue_5823.html

To reach gold status you gotta rack up 300 points in a year, platinum is 600. Even if you spend them in the store, they keep track of how many total points you earned during the Club Nintendo year (which is something like July 1 2011 to June 30 2012). If you had points left over from the previous year those don't count; you can still spend them in the store but they don't count for what you earned this year. So the same goes for what you spend; it doesn't matter because it's not how many coins you have in the bank, it's how many you earned this year. Once that number gets to 300 or 600 you reach the reward status. For that yeah you win a prize. I posted earlier in this thread what the prizes have been so far over the past few years. This is stuff you don't (and can't) buy in the store; you get it for free as a reward for buying so damn much from Nintendo
