Can anyone dig up those pictures of Iwata with the classic controllers brief case?
Maybe all of those will come out at some point.

I agree, the CC is already SNES-inspired so it doesn't add THAT much, except for its awesome look. Though perhaps an N64-shaped one might help...sp0rsk said:

Alright, this question has been asked and answered at least 4 times in this thread already, but I'll say it again, as no one actually reads before posting.
Each game you buy has point cards in the box. The point cards have a 16 digit alpha-numeric code that you enter on the Club Nintendo site once you log in. The point value of the game depends on how old the game is, and how expensive it was originally (systems yield more points than games, for instance).
You need 400 points between Oct 06 and Sept 07 to hit Platinum status.
Oh yeah, and I picked the SFC controller. I can't wait.

Thank you for the attitude, it is much appreciated. Now, in case you didn't make it through my whole question, I'll rephrase: How many games do you have to buy to reach the platinum level? I understand there are circumstances that affect the points you get for each one, but I'm just curious about a ballpark estimate. We talking 5 games? 25 games? 50? More?thetrin said:Alright, this question has been asked and answered at least 4 times in this thread already, but I'll say it again, as no one actually reads before posting.

I will find a way to make that super fami style classic controller mine.
"Oh, yes it will be mine."
"Oh, yes it will be mine."
God damn, this is the price we pay in America for getting games cheaper than other regions. Japan gets cool stuff like this, and even Europe gets points to spend on stuff (or to turn into Wii Points).
I want that soundtrack, and a SNES version of the Classic Controller.
How hard would it be for Nintendo to set up 1 worldwide program? Even let you register multiple copies of a game (1 NA and 1 PAL for example). It would get more people to participate and would be a minor boost in sales (since someone might buy a copy of Brain Age 2 from all 3 regions for example). Or at least sell some of these Club Nintendo items online.

At the very least they could set up a Club Nintendo type program in each region. I want stuff like OST's, not crappy stylii. The only good items that MyNintendo ever had were "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Ocarina of Time Master Quest" and "The Legend of Zelda Collector's Edition".

Fucking Nintendo. Japan snubs SMG yet you reward them with an OST compilation and NA will probably buy the bulk of SMG sales and all we got was a measly coin.

I want the soundtrack and controller, this isnt fair, I have tons of import DS games so let me have them already.
and the Mario coin is badass, you can use it...to be a coin.

It varies from game to game, and you get a bonus for registering games within their launch window. But in my experience it's something like this:
Nunchuck = 10 points
DS = 50 points
Wii game = 30 points (plus another 30 for early registration)
DS game = 20 points (plus another 20 for early registration)
You can only register the same title once, even if you bought it three times (to prevent against used game stores hoarding more points than god). Also of note: games 'expire' after about two years and can't be registered any longer.
Edit: so in answer to your question, somewhere from seven early registered Wii games to twenty late registered DS games in a year. Or more likely a mix of the two. The neat thing about the annual presents is that they don't actually cost you points - you can have used all your points up on other stuff, but you keep a running tally of 'this year's points' which is used to decide if you made it to platinum status.

It still amazes me why Nintendo haven't release Wii-enabled NES/SNES/N64 controllers or adapters for old controllers to work. The classic controller is great and everything but I'd much rather be using my trusty N64 pad for Starfox.
Just a heads up NCS has pre-orders up for both the controller and soundtrack.
(Controller $30)
http://mgrsti3030s.seamlesstech.biz/templates/frmTemplateR.asp?CatalogID=14515&SearchYN=N&subFolderID=206
(Soundtrack $33)
http://mgrsti3030s.seamlesstech.biz/templates/frmTemplateR.asp?CatalogID=14516&SearchYN=N&subFolderID=47
And Play Asia will have pre-orders up soon for both as well.
