Ouch @Teamtophat losing his account and coins. 
I think Chopper us right and it maybe wouldn't have happened if he didn't do the giveaways here and possibly someone at NOA is lurking and reported it.

All his coins were legitimately acquired, and Nintendo has no issue with people getting the monthly download games to give away. The issue is that he had wholly separate Club Nintendo accounts at the same address meaning he could get multiple CN annual rewards for the same household, when Nintendo only allows one reward per household. I think the best solution for all involved is to combine all the disparate accounts into one family account with sub-accounts. That will satisfy Nintendo's requirements about annual rewards per households and let TTH keep his coins. Hopefully, the CN support will be able to do that for him...
Probably. There were a lot of people buying multiple MK8s, using the CN code, returning the game/trading it in for near full credit, and keeping the free game. Would imagine Nintendo would want to crack down on that.

Chrontendo gives is a shake-down. It is 2 player only and the only obstacle to avoid is the other player. Also it seems player 1 has the advantage starting nearer the almighty multiplication symbol (although adding is handy too).
I guess in 2 player it can be fun but the same can said for lots of things.
From what I understand a family is one pool of coins and only one elite membership while separate accounts can have you hit platinum multiple times in theory (given how much it costs them hence how bad the prizes were this year). If only there was a Club Nintendo USA thread...
I think it specifically allowed and stated that each member of a family account would get one in that case.
Though I do a Club Nintendo of someone getting banned for getting the $30 eShop credit from SMTIV & FEA twice (I'm sure it was a family account there also). They do tend to have a short fuse though. For example as soon as they find out you don't live in America, that is it banhammerr.

Thank you for your replies!
The Wii U is my only Nintendo system. It seems like I'll have to wait for the second GBA to be released on the VC or for the Gamecube Virtual Console...
I was joking.Ouch @Teamtophat losing his account and coins.

That would be a huge selling point for me.
I would hate Nintendo if it did this. At the same time, I would love Nintendo if it did this. Guess this is better than nothing, so I'd go with the latter.

I don't get NOA. They had a press release yesterday. They could have either held the game back a week or mentioned it yesterday.
Stealth launches are just about acceptable if a direct is where they are mentioned but this is outright sales sabotage.

Well they're already up
"Here is the New 3ds. NOW it can run SNES games" they better push at least N64 games otherwise it will sound pretty lame....

Good! Hope off-TV play works fine from launch. Any word on the Ittle Dew patch for off-TV play being released in the U.S.? Waiting to buy it until that works.
For $7, especially if it includes the original stages as well (no idea if it does), I think it's a good value. It's a rhythm game and probably a tricky one to 100%. The Kirby iteration was a lot of fun.

Surely one of the main focus points of the new 3DS as far as online content goes has to be the ability to play things the original couldn't.... surely SNES+ has to be on the cards?
I can't wait to start waiting for this shit all over again. :lol

As per the NOE release list, Two Tribe's RIVE is officially coming to the Wii U.

The thing I don't get about the Kirby/Dedede game is how they are both enhanced versions of the minigames from Kirby TD but need Kirby TD to unlock everything (well streetpass active so if you had the game you might be in luck). It is like the worst situation of own Kirby TD, not enough new to justify buying again but don't own it you might prefer to own it.
Forget N64 VC for Wii U, got to get it for 3DS...sounds exactly like what Nintendo would do
This was the first thing I thought of when they talked about an improved CPU. I'd bet it's happening, both Nintendo and indies wanted it on 3DS but the hardware just wasn't up to it.

Meanwhile at Nintendo:
"GBA on Wii U!
N64 on New3DS!
HA HA HA HA."

NOE is saying that Shovel Knight and Gunvolt will be out in 2014. Interesting given that I don't think Gunvolt has started translation and Shovel Knight has not been lot checked yet.
The PDF also has some eShop release dates, some specific, most vague (Gunvolt is listed as Winter). Worryingly SMTIV is listed as 2014 rather than September 2014. Curse of the lot check?

That was my first thought as well. Really hope that's on the XL as well, since it only seems to be for the OG model.Kind of a cross-post from the new 3DS reveal thread, but...
My first thought on seeing this...
Please mean SNES games, please mean SNES games, please mean SNES games, please mean SNES games, please mean SNES games, please mean SNES games
& yes, let us hope this is teasing SNES VC for 3DS.

Azure Striker Gunvol seems....weird. I'm not liking it so far.
Will play more for futher judgement. I really hope I'm wrong thinking this game isn't so good.

How do you get Mighty Gunvolt? I thought it would be released later on?

Apparently if you go for download now and wait for it to be finished you will be taken to the page.
You can also get the download code from the eShop receipt (go to account history)

Oh the receipt. Thanks. Downloading now.
Wait, these are coming out in NA? I could have sworn they were Japan only... and just when I was thinking I wouldn't be that disappointed with my lack of 3DS wi-fi for the next few months.
Out of nowhere... My poor wallet..
The Fall, I wanna hear your thoughts on it!

I think it has 5 extra stages over the one in Triple Deluxe. Maybe an extra fighter or two? I forget exactly b/c I don't own Triple Deluxe.
You get some bonus stuff, like more another stage & 2 more abilities, if you own Kirby Triple Deluxe. I think there's also a few more stages & items not in the KTD version. What sucks is that I USED to have it, but I don't think it'd know that I previously had the game on my system.
Otherwise, I guess if you liked the original version and feel as though you want the extra content, it's worth getting, but otherwise, if you think you've gotten the most out of the original & are content, then yeah, stick with the mini-game version.
Personally, I found it to be alright, but yeah, if you can play only single player, it's not as fun. Maybe I'll wait for a sale, but I don't have much desire to own it as a separate game, even with the bonus stuff.

Wrong thread, oops (was re: New 3DS buttons).
Um, Mighty Gunvolt, yay?

Apparently if you still have SP active for it, it might actually think you still have the game.
Sadly, I don't. I deactivate all StreetPass titles once I don't have them anymore.
Then again, I DID rate the game on the eShop since it knew I played over an hour, so maybe it'll know that way?

What the hell is nintendo doing to me? I've called and they said they would call me later to explain everything.
In the mean time, they've removed the following from my Wii U and 3DS. What the fuck? I spend thousands of dollars just on nintendo products and they're treating me like I scammed them. I even sent them all the receipts.
Dr. Luigi - The gift I chose from Platinum Reward
Kirby's adventure - Club Nintendo monthly reward
Metal torrent - Club Nintendo monthly reward
Puzzle league express - Club Nintendo monthly reward
Super Mario bros 2 - Club Nintendo monthly reward
Excitebike - Club Nintendo monthly reward
Anyone who I've given free codes too might want to check their eShop account activity. Your titles could be getting removed.
3DS software just disappeared.
Wii u software is "there" but can't be played
