Title: I am so freaking psyched right now!
Post by: Gamefreak on December 28, 2011, 09:25:20 AM
After going through every single piece of Nintendo merchandise I own, I saved up enough Nintendo points to get these!

Each one is 22x28 and will be mine in a week or two.

Wow. That middle one is especially awesome. I'm so jealous, Gamefreak.

Excuse me while I see if I have enough points to get some of that swag coming my way. 3DS points, don't fail me now!

I don't understand points.  How do I points?

You don't points, you point. You would only use "pointed, pointing, and will point" in a sentence when you are referring to yourself, Tach.

In all seriousness, it seems that every time you buy something from Nintendo, you get a certain amount of points, and by collecting several Nintendo products, you can get various items worth various amounts of points.

Yeah.  Pretty much every time you buy a Nintendo product, whether it be a 3DS, a Wii, or just some games, they have a little leaflet inside with the manual advertising Club Nintendo.

Along with that leaflet, there will be a PIN of some sort that you use to register it with your Club Nintendo account.

Wii games are usually worth 50 points, DS and Wiis are 160 points each, DS or 3DS games are worth 30.

Zelda posters cost me 400 points.

I got incredibly lucky though.  The sheer majority of my Wii games are pre-owned games I bought at Gamestop that didn't have registered codes.

I got lucky, as well. My 3DS gave me 250 points because I registered it before the price drop, and of course, Ocarina of Time 3D got me thirty points. I was short 120 points, it seemed, and even with Skyward Sword, that was only fifty more...

And then the 3DS Ambassador program saved the day.

More Zelda stuff on its way! W00t!
