Official Club Nintendo Thread

In case anyone doesn't know there is a special reward for those in Club Nintendo that are Gold or Platinum status. Anyone have any ideas as to what it could be? Also, does anyone know how to link your Wii Shop Channel to your Club Nintendo account? I'm trying to get to Platinum and am stuck at 370 coins(300 for Gold, 600 needed for Platinum). Looks like I'll be heading down to my brother's house to get a codes for a couple games he's borrowing from me.

Yeah I know they haven't shown what the prizes will be what I was just asking if anyone had some thoughts of what to expect, that's all.

Hijacking thread to make it the official Club Nintendo thread. Any and all Club Nintendo discussion should go here.

I'll snazzy up the OP in due time.

Good idea. I was surprised that no one has talked about the club at all yet.

I'm hoping for one of those snazy SNES classic controllers, or even better, a N64 classic controller would be awesome as the platinum level prize.

I'm also hoping the gifts you can get will update with the new Club Nintendo year, or at least give you the ability to redeem coins as Wii points.

It would be sweet if we got rewarded with the "snazzy SNES classic controllers" but I doubt Nintendo would give those away, even though we technically get all the coins through purchasing their products loyally. They are great to us so who knows for sure. Once I buy Punch-Out!! and get my PIN for Galaxy from my brother as well as the Wii Fit PIN(he's borrowing them) I will only need 50 for Platinum. Anybody got an easy way to get that? I've already got the big hits other than Punch-Out!!. How many coins do you get for VC games? And which VC games get you coins? Mario games please?

Ok. Well maybe I'll buy 5 VC games to get it, but I'll need to go find a list of games that were released on it after that date you posted.

Going by the search, there's a year-old thread from when it went live.

Best way for now is to get DS games, or maybe some of the New Play Control! games? Pikmin and DK Jungle Beat are the better two of the three.

You get around 10 coins for VC games IIRC, but you don't get the coins straight up; they come from the post-play survey, so if you buy any games now, the survey will show up after the end of the month. You're stuck buying retail if you want to boost your coin count for Platinum.

It won't be Wii Remote jackets, unless they're special colored-ones. Every since they introduced the jackets, every new Wii Remote has come with one.

The gift will probably be a Kirby stylus or something. They have extras from way back when.

I am actually more interested in the new prizes after the switch, tbh. They will be worth more than the Platinum freebie in my opinion.
