Not so sure, as all the games are titles that are already available.Originally Posted by old_skoolin_jim
You still can't see the site? I was able to see the update yesterday and am currently logged in now. There's not much change, just a new layout and the addition of 2 Wii and 2 DSi games available with points (and some new physical rewards as well).
*Edit: The Club Nintendo site is running relatively slow, but still accessible.

Deleted my Club Nintendo cookie and the site loaded up, but it's running rather slow now. Guess it's better than nothing.
Nope...

BTW - the POST-PLAY surveys for the GBA Ambassador Games are up. (If you downloaded them on day 1)
That's 100 coins total!

"And the book says: 'We may be through with the past, but the past ain't through with us.'"
I noticed that today. That'll give me just enough points to get the second game and watch collection for DS!
hey wow I have 1200 coins now.. enough for a G&W Ball repro! And I was about to just bite the bullet and buy one on ebay (which is actually the cheaper way to go). But I guess I'll get a new one directly from Nintendo now.
Nintendo has updated its Club Nintendo downloadable game offering. Here are the current games, available till Jan. 31st:
3DS:
Kirby's Dream Land (Game Boy) (100 points)
Dr. Mario Express (150 points)
Wii:
Dr. Mario Online Rx (100 ponits)
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (N64) (150 points)
Since I already have the GameCube Zelda compilation, I was wondering if the version of Majora's Mask on the Wii has fixed all issues found on the GameCube version. According to a Wiki on Zelda, it is the case. Therefore, Majora's Mask may be an interesting choice for those of us who don't own a N64 and hadn't bought it yet on the Virtual Console.
You should realize not a lot of people care about / use the codes on their Wii, DS and 3DS games or want to waste time joining club nintendo. A lot of used games are out there with their codes unused. Yeah it's a gamble but more often than not the codes probably arent used because the casual gamers don't bother with them.

I'm a collector, but only to a certain extent.
Not as extreme as Rickstilwell though.[/quote]
Yeah, so? People who do use their codes on Club Nintendo usually like to be informed of new rewards, be it downloadable games or physical products. Besides, the downloadable game deals are available only for a short time, so people who may not visit their Club Nintendo home page often may miss out on them. And if you have spare unused codes that you don't want, feel free to send them my way.
Go for it!hey wow I have 1200 coins now.. enough for a G&W Ball repro! And I was about to just bite the bullet and buy one on ebay (which is actually the cheaper way to go). But I guess I'll get a new one directly from Nintendo now.
As a G&W collector I give that thing high marks for quality.
It's such a nice repro and the packaging, stand and instructions that it comes with are collector-grade stuff worth having.
"And the book says: 'We may be through with the past, but the past ain't through with us.'"
Well heck, I got it today. Here's the thing, is it me or is it smaller than the original?
I have a lot of Game and Watches but I don't have Ball. I USED to have Fire, but that thing was destroyed a long time ago. Not to mention all my G&W's are in a box at my mom's house.
So I don't if it's my memory failing me, or if all the G&W's I have are "widescreen" and larger. But is this repro faithful to the original size?
I'm glad, too. I've bought a couple of used games that still had the code in the box, and they worked.
Yeah, it's a very faithful recreation of "Ball" with the exception of the battery compartment.Well heck, I got it today. Here's the thing, is it me or is it smaller than the original?

It's the size of the original run of Game & Watch "silver series" units, which really never made it to the US.
"Fire" was actually introduced in that series.
Of the original silver series Fire was the only that was re-released in the "Widescreen" series (with better illustrated LCD characters). The widescreen series was released in the US and is probably the size of the unit you're remembering.

"And the book says: 'We may be through with the past, but the past ain't through with us.'"
Was it destroyed in some type of fire? If so that would be pretty ironic.
Or, if it was thrown out a window and somebody failed to catch it.
And, here's a little something I made for LOST fans who are also Game & Watch fans. (If there are any other than me.)
"And the book says: 'We may be through with the past, but the past ain't through with us.'"
Yeah I eventually figured it out, And you're right.. I did have the Widescreen Fire. That being said I did see the Silver & Gold G&W's for sale but none really interested me back then. Growing up in Guam we pretty much had most sold locally, not to mention my family would often go to Japan for shopping at least twice a year (very short & cheap plane ride). If you could imagine Japan in the early 80's, the stores displays were filled to the brim with all sorts of electronic games.. it was a friggin thing of beauty.
Nope, it was simply overplayed and died. Eventually screen rot set in from moisture and it just had to be thrown away.This was ages ago though..
On that note.. while I still have a lot of my handheld games, it pains me how much stuff I lot simply because they eventually broke. Heck I had the Monkey Business watch amongst other rare birds. Ah well.. they were definitely enjoyed while they lasted.

I just got this email in my inbox this evening...
Since I have nowhere to hang the posters right now, they've been in the original cardboard tube since I got them, so I never even noticed any flaw. Very cool of Nintendo to step up and replace an error that most people probably would've never noticed.
Plus, hey, now I got an extra poster! Maybe I'll give it to a friend of mine who missed out on the anniversary posters when they were still available.
Updated this February with a new item, a slick 3DS/DS 18 card carrying case with interchangeable slipcovers.
Very nice. Do want.

The new selection of games is Mario Party 2 (VC) and Art Academy (eShop).
I had all these unused Club Nintendo codes lying around. So I decided to register tonight, and order the 3DS/DS case. It was the only thing available that I can actually get some use out of.
Also, it turns out that I had enough coins to reach Gold status. Hopefully, the elite status special gift is something decent.

A new member satisfaction survey is up, worth about 10 coins. Take this opportunity to ask for those groovy soundtrack CDs to make their way to our shores!
Also, the 25th Anniversary Zelda posters are back for a short time, and three new game selections are up; Cubello, Mario's Picross and Radar Mission.
