Well WiiU goes into Wii mode when playing VC games. I'll just get it for decorative purposes though.

^ @Zornica. Give it a try. I'll be interested to see if they want the whole box back or will just send out the cover.
But from what I recall of impressions. If you're already using a SNES controller via adapter you'll notice that this one feels new. Things like the buttons being firmer etc...
I don't have the SNES controller (went for the statue, I'm back up to 4100 now, 7000 might be tough and I'm fine with the CC Pro).

I'll be going today to the address Nintendo sent the coins to; I hope they have arrived by now!
Are these still up for grabs?

That would be awesome, I'm at about 4300 stars, and wanted that DS G&W game forever.
edit: sorry, didnt see that nny had already asked for it.
Yep!

Holy crap! Today's real megaton is that more than two people can have the same first name.
I'm in the same position.

Same here as well. I'm not going to worry, going by how Nintendo have handled all the previous offers they seem to send them out in waves so that the last people get their item a good 2-3 weeks later than the first people.
I got my coins a few days ago.
BUT this was the second time, they had sent them to me. It seems the original package was lost in the mail (I assume that someone probably thought those were real coins and stole them). I contacted Nintendo 2 months after the shipping e-mail and they replied and told me, that they would send out another package.
And this time, I had to sign for the package (which I never had to do for any of the other Club Nintendo shipments).
Also my Prof. Layton Box arrived here 16 days after I received their shipping email.

It's just I'm slightly concerned / paranoid after my Zelda statue experience.
It arrived with a broken sword. They told me to send the whole thing back and I'd receive a replacement in 8 weeks. The 8 weeks have passed... still nothing... I've contacted them again.
Well, I put my address in on my ipod touch while I was on holiday, and I dont exactly trust my touch keyboard typing ability.
I'm sure it is fine and I'm worrying about nothing.

I got my coins last saturday. I expected them to be smaller, but they are really massive! Nice box too.

Has the offer ended already? Not sure if it has. You should check it out, contact Nintendo about it. You might still be able to get them.

For anyone still wondering about them, I got my SNES Classic Controller today.
The thing's fucking awesome. I knew it would look the part, but I wasn't expecting it to feel so good. It's exactly the same as a proper SNES controller. Same sort of plastic, same buttons, etc. It's literally a SNES controller that you can plug into a Wiimote, which is awesome.

My box has crushed parts at the front :'(. they should really wrote it as fragile or something I reckon Royal Mail kinda crushed the front of the box, still happy I got it.Mine showed up this morning. I'm really impressed!
Had to also sign for the box as well, I did email to them once when I didn't receive my Kid Icarus AR Cards though.
Also waiting for mine as well.
My coins finally arrived last week.

Check the expiry dates. I generally only register games on the month they expire (exception being day 1 buys and when I need enough to buy something) and I've registered both of those.

Damn, I want this. I hope I'm able to get one! Can I verify that it starts at 8am in the UK?
seems that apollo justice has expired... but EBAs codecard is lacking a date..
edit: why isn't something like that on the front page?

A leather luggage tag... WHAT? Could they get any more random.

In my language there's a saying that says you shouldn't look a horse, that was given to you, in the mouth. Dunno if it exists in english, but I guess it speaks for itself. ;-)
Itsa free, man!
woo and indeed hoo
Banned
The same expression does exist in English as "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth"
.Hm, I always had my suspicions about you two! So many pennies dropping into place!

The stars catalogue is being shut down for a few weeks for improvements along with other site redesigns. Wonder what they mean by improvements though?
Nice gesture about the stars expiring but what about game slips? Unless its just the catalogue and the registering. Walk with me expires on the 5th (? my slip said 20th August though*) and Another Code:R on the 22nd (this one should be okay).
Those two are all the came out June 2009.
*-Which makes no sense as the game came out 5th June 2009 (Another Code:R is 22nd June 2009).

I should only have 3DS games and the Last Story left to register now. If I've missed something it's my own fault for going rather sour with Club Nintendo and bot bothering with it for so long.
I like my SNES controller even if I have left it in the box. The packaging is delish.

I bet the new look is the same as Nintendo.com. The menu bar navigation they mention is the exact same.
I hope we aren't getting NOA's Club Nintendo instead.
Improvements description feels mainly like responsive webdesign from what it sounds like in my web developer ears. Meaning, in short, their website will display better on ipad and iphone. And likely in their webkit powered web browser on the Wii U Gamepad.
