Anyone got a picture of the platinum award? I ordered it, but can't find a pic on the website.

It's kinda weird that I'm way more excited to receive my shoelaces than I am the platinum reward, but you know, FREE STUFF.

Same. I'm probably gonna look for a sweet pair of red shoes like they use in the photograph for the laces.

earthwormadam

I might havta go one step further and get some custom cheep-cheep sneaks from a guy that paints sneakers locally. But first I guess I'll have to look for some shoes that don't look like they just walked through the bog of eternal stench.

Riokenn

Enjoy your calendars suckers! I'll have a rockin time with my mario....pogs....

ArcSyn

Those things are getting shadowboxed and mounted on the wall in my game room.

Once I get a game room to put them in..

They're just getting boxed for now, like the posters and statue did.

AuburnTiger

I . . . don't even know what I'm going to do with those pins. I'm not the type of person that ever wears a pin.

Krathoon

They still have not topped that statue they gave out a couple years ago. I am beginning to think that one broke the bank.

Riokenn

The Mario Statue? That was Last Years Prize. First years prize was the Mario Hat.

AuburnTiger

Well, these pins had to have saved them a lot of money. A LOT of money.

I think they meant the Japanese prizes like the SNES classic controller, and other functional stuff that would normally be pretty expensive to make.

They can't just merge the Club budget with all the other country clubs. Thats not fair.

Got my classic Mario T-shirt in today.

So uh...fair warning, the shoelaces are short. Really short.

I'm thinking these are meant to be kids laces.

maximumzero

Had to skip every other eyelet but I think this works.

maximumzero

Better luck on the converses as there's less eyelets there to begin with.

LBD_Nytetrayn

So, uh...

...do you want the card from the bag?

Brainiac 8

Checked last night and I got my e-mail that the plat prize is coming.

Eventually I'll get a man cave built and ready for use, and when I do I'll have the most awesome collection of gaming memorabilia ever.

ArcSyn

Plat prize shipped! Yay!

earthwormadam

Cool I gots my laces, for some reason I was thinking they'd be the fat style laces, which they unfortunately are not! Pretty cool looking none the less. Oh well, now I wait for my pins...

Wish I would have left mine in the package as a collectible. They're way short, as aforementioned, and they look like they'll fray easily.

Platinum Prize is in, box was a lot bigger than I considered.

Bartholamue

Oh yeah, I got the Game & Watch Ball thingy. Will post pictures soon.

Whoo, I'll be doing this! I have three of those games codes in drawer for next years platinum, so I'll just use two of them to get this.

Edit: Waitaminute! Is the 3DS contest just in Europe or is the Kid Icarus think only Europe too?

Sweet. Thank god it goes as early as the 1st - it will pick up Mario 3D Land that way. Then with Mario Kart 7, that's my two games. Would have been a problem otherwise since I have a lot of the others on that list already (at least the ones I wanted to pick up)

Edit: It is kind of dumb that you need to register between that time frame though. It should just count if you have registered them period before the cutoff date. A lot of those games are launch titles or at least came out months ago...

Xenogears of Bore

For right now this is Europe and Japan only. Revenge of Xenoblade.

cloudeagle

Niiiiiice. I just got my Zelda bundle in and I'm getting Mario 3D Land for Christmas from my wife, so free game for me!

The Zelda 3DS is stupidly nice, by the way. The gold pattern is blended into the black paint rather than being an overlay, so I don't have to worry about it rubbing off. And it's got some neat gold accents, like on the panel where you insert the game and the 3D slider.

Edit: Nooooooo!

Brainiac 8

Curses! What is up with NOE being so awesome lately. They keep making me jealous! Maybe NOA will give me the red controller with Xenoblade.

On the flip side, I get to play the awesome Layton's London Life! Take that Euroland! :x

As dumb as that is, I'm sure we'll get it too. NOA is always slow as shit about posting this stuff for some ungodly reason...

Xenogears of Bore

I'm pretty sure we'll get it too.

I remember when this happened for the Zelda Collector's Edition. I had to force myself to buy Superstar Saga to go along with Double Dash to get the Zelda. Two of my favorite last gen games and free Majora's Mask.

Krathoon

I am temped to go for the Zelda 3DS bundle, but I do already have a blue 3DS. I did not know they were going to release one that nice.

Nitsua

I figured this would be the best place to ask: I have a Club Nintendo account and added my girlfriend onto it we can get more points together. However, I have already registered a 3DS and I have purchased one for her for Christmas. If i were to register that new 3DS on the shared account (under her name), will we still get points for it or does she have to have her own account for that to work?

LBD_Nytetrayn

I believe you can register it, but you'll only get points for one of any item...

...unless different colors count, as different models do (DS, DS Lite, DSi, DSi XL, for example).

Vyolynce

Wow, these pins are surprisingly thick and stubborn. My (above-ground) Goomba wasn't properly fastened to the cardboard upon arrival and putting it back in place was a chore.

Algertman

OK, I have a question. My original 3DS went missing. Well, the ambassador games that would be attached to the system have popped up on the Club page for me to do a post plat survey for 10 points. Does this mean that someone has downloaded those games to my system or do those show up automatically due to the ambassador program?

Big Classy

What is the ambassador program? I've not touched the Wii or DS close to two years now.
