My Nintendo Thread: Mii Nintendo, U Nintendo, Wii Nintendo

Mobile games coins being restricted to their specific game rewards is fucking dumb. I have 1000 FE coins expiring next month but not only am I planning to leave the game but the game itself gives so much of what you can redeem for free I have so much stuff in my inventory I don't use.

Also I found a hidden Mii and they said there were three more in the website but I looked at each section and found nothing. Considering I haven't gotten that since launch I wonder if it's a glitch.

I don't know how the birthday offers work exactly, but mine was in April and Xenoblade X didn't have a discount.

Oh really? Thanks for the info. I already knew the game selection changes over time but had hope XBX was still being offered.

My birthday is in October. Not only was Christmas coming up but August 30th I had bought my first Xbox 360 and September 30th I bought my first Xbox One.

I don't really need a digital copy but I'll like to support one of my favorite games of all time. Not go mention what the hell else am I going to spend these 500 gold coins of my on. I buy a decent number of Wii U Eshop games.

PIKMIN Short Movies 3D (Nintendo 3DS)

and

PIKMIN Short Movies HD (Wii U)

are now up... 40 gold coins each

I love how they wait over a month to add something Europe had with the first round software Pikmin rewards. Like they want you to waste you gold coins on some else first.

I was very tempted to spend the 30 Gold coins I had left on two 3DS themes as the end of the month approached but I'm super glad I waited. Got the 3d version for now but will almost assuredly get the Wii U version too as I have 100 Gold coins expiring next month.

I would bang a hot farmer!
I have 30 gold coins expiring at the end of September from that free game last year so I'll probably be getting the 3D shorts. It's supposed to be up until September 1st so I'll wait till a week or two before hand in case something better pops up but I doubt it.
 
I have 150 gold coins expiring in two days. Anyone want anything?

This service fucking sucks and I will never buy digital again from Nintendo. God damn rip off
 
Every time I see this thread pop up I check it in the hopes that it edges closer to the old CN.

And every time I'm disappointed. I don't know why I think any different.

Woah woah woah... For some reason I was under the impression that Gold Coins didn't expire. You know, because you spend your f#cking real-world money to earn them.

Originally they expired after 6 months, now it's 1 year. I agree with you it doesn't make sense to ever have them expire.

They have to expire at some point because otherwise you end up with a huge liability on your balance sheet that you can't get rid of. But it could easily be five years. One year is just being a cunt.

It looks like Switch rewards may be coming with Splatoon

http://www.japanesenintendo.com/post/162340899964

That site translates the Japanesse mynintendo updates at the bottom it has this

tumblr_oos3r8kxiG1s2z1y6o5_r6_1280.jpg


"All Nintendo Switch rewards (Coming Soon)
– Splatoon 2 FA-11 Custom Gear (Switch) ??
– Splatoon 2 Ika V Collaboration Gear (Switch) ??
Keywords: PP = Platinum Points / GP = Gold Points."

In game gear is at least something cool to spend coins on

Hopefully I can redeem these without a Switch.

Oh thank fuck! I had 70 coins about to expire and couldn't justify getting discounts for games I only kind of want. Always wanted to watch these

It has made me hesitant about getting my reward coins for Switch physical purchases. May as well wait until I have something to buy to redeem coins. What is truly bullshit is that the reward is sooo much less for physical purchases.

There are many reasons to not want to buy digital from Nintendo but being upset with the BONUS and that being the reason not to is silly.

I watched the first Pikmin short, it was pretty cute

the 3D effect is barely noticeable though

That was indeed a bit disappointing. The HD videos are also up on Dailymotion.com.

Well if your willing to gift me Pikmin, and the Pikmin Movies that just went up, assuming your NA, then I'm willing to take you up on your offer.

Maturity, bitches.
I only have 50 gold coins. 10 expire this month, the rest next.

Thinking of just getting that mission mode DLC for Pikmin 3 for 50G. Any good? Haven't played Pikmin 3 since completing it.

All of the mission modes are amazing. I prefer the collection ones over the combat ones though.

1067 platinum points expiring in two days and nothing to spend them on.

Also I just realized the mobile platinum points are not spendable cross-game. wat.

I give up.

I'll hope against hope and common sense that maybe there will be a discount on Super Bomberman R :p

Yes I know it's insane but hey
There was a 40% discount on Bomberman accidentally posted by Nintendo Portugal on Facebook too early. Could very well happen for NA as well.

That sale is not My Nintendo related. It's a regular one-week-sale starting July 1.


The user above didn't list the games that will be discounted on the American My Nintendo next month, obviously nothing Switch-related:

I have 30 gold coins expiring in a couple of days. Is the Pikmin Prima guide worthwhile? Are any of those Prima guides worthwhile?

Ah. Nothing too stand out, but a Picross discount is always good for me :D

Oh God Yes. A discount on the digital-only Art Academy for Wii U. I've been waiting so long. Definitely getting it. Hopefully Gold coins.

I would like to think this improves the small chance of a Fatal Frame discount but that game being rated M makes that unlikely.

When I look at the actual PR document here:

http://gonintendo.com/stories/284070-nintendo-download-june-29-2017-expand-your-adventures-in-hyrul

To me it reads as though they are suggesting some games to play on your summer vacation, and then in a separate section are discussing current and upcoming MyN rewards. Maybe you are correct and it's just unclearly formatted, though.

That is weird that they would announce My Nintendo rewards for July 1st in advance. Whatever, been waiting for a discount on Picross 3D Round 2.
