Are you a Club Nintendo Member?

Club Nintendo is basically a survey and points system but for Nintendo products. Nintendo gives you points "coins" in return for you buying their products and providing your own personal experience and opinion to them. You can then use these coins to buy things as big as games and handbags to little things like posters and screensavers. It's a real cool system and gives away a lot of cool stuff, especially if your a gold or Plat. Member. So if your not a member, think about joining because its free and only requires your time and energy for a lot of cool prizes.

For those of you that are members already, what prizes have you gotten? How much do you like Club Nintendo? How long have you been apart of it. Also for people in Europe, how do you like your stuff compared to America's?

I'm a member. I actually have enough first party stuff registered that I managed to score a deck of Mario Party cards.
I put them away to give to my niece when she's a little bit older. They're pretty cool. The backs of the cards actually make up the Mario Party box art when you tile them out.

I've noticed they'll do follow up surveys too. Basically, I think they try to gauge how long the legs are on their games. Some games may consistently get tens out of you but others may start out at ten, and by the last survey peter out at an 8.

Still it's a neat program. I wouldn't mind them perhaps giving members early release on a big game. Like, "Oh, you did our Club Nintendo thing? How would you like to buy Zelda/Smash/Mario/Metroid/Pokemon/Starfox/DK/etc early direct, and you'll get it a week before stores/special collector's edition not available in stores?" They do stuff like this with their NYC showroom/store so I think doing it with CN would be a great differentiator.

After Lostleader's post I became a new member. Didn't realize how many codes I happened to have.

The rewards are either kind of lame or way too expensive, but I had enough points to order the Special Edition Animal Crossing Soundtrack CD. Does it really take them eight weeks to deliver the rewards? Seriously?

I am a member and use my codes to get Wii-points. Do not care about other stuff, but getting VC games is a nice bonus.

It would be a shame if all those points were wasted... so of course I am a Club Nintendo member.

Speaking of the points, I can NOT believe that GameStop did NOT remove a valid point-PIN code in a USED copy of Etrian Odyssey I bought... it is... MADNESS I TELL YOU O_O

I'm a member. I also had a bunch of Nintendo swag to register so I was able to score a lot of points and redeem quite a bit of prizes within a couple of months.

Good thing I never chuck those slips of paper that have the game registration code XD

They can stfu. This is the only game Im even remotely looking forward to on the Wii.

In fact, more people need to buy the game so we can actually get some non-shovelware like Imagine: Party Babyz or My horses.

. The Wii had some promise.

Oh and since when is Nintendo publishing the game? This isnt the first or last M title on a Nintendo console either...

Not sure how many people know this, but you can now get games with those Nintendo coins, make them far more worth it. As well the games are renewed with different ones each month, as well 3rd party games are now being included in the Nintendo Club program. It just gets better and better!
