    Damn, wouldn't mind getting one of the mario controllers. However there are 2 copies of zelda left and 40 Size Small (9-11) t-shirts and 21 Size Small (12 - 13) t-shirts left.

    Indeed, They never put enough stuff in. I'm hoping for another DS VIP thing though, last one was at least better than hundreds of wallpapers

    a few questions since apparently they are all gone now (and I'm in the us anyway so I couldn't get them from the catalogue) sorry if these have been addressed elsewhere,

    were the mario controllers the same or very similar to the japan club nintendo ones?
    are the games and systems special edition, or were they just a decent reward compared to the computer wallpapers and downloadable mp3's?

    >>ones?
    Can't tell as once they're gone from the catalogue you can't see them...can only see the text....


    >>are the games and systems special edition, or were they just a decent reward
    >>compared to the computer wallpapers and downloadable mp3's?
    Can't tell for sure for the console as no picture anymore, but the Zelda looks standard. I think they're just a decent reward.....


    EDIT: Zelda now gone...only t-shirts left

    I see, maybe someone on the boards will have gotton one or a pic of one. I have all 3 club nintendo japan controllers, so I was just trying to see if there was another I should keep an eye out for or if was the same mario one.

    I'm guessing the console was a standard black GC (since it dosn't say "Limited Edition") and the controller was the same as the JP one, Nintendo wouldn't be nice enough to make a special one for us europeans!

    yeah I figured it was standard but I thought I'd check anyway.

    and hey at least you guy's get something, I don't think NOA does anything like this. However, I've only briefly looked into it at their website so I might be mistaken.

    WHY WASN'T I TOLD SOONER?!?! Must... join.. quickly..... nintendo.com here I come :smt082

    yeah it figures that's all we get... I suppose nintendo can't afford to be "giving" away a bunch of stuff, but since you have to purchase stuff to redeem points and get stuff... I'm sure it's not all that bad for them


    Sorry Bert for dragging your thread a little ot

    You can only see it when the are online, now we just have some Wario Ware mp3's (300stars).
    The Legend of Zelda: Collectors edition costs me 4500 stars.

    Per game you get 250 stars.
