Re-Checked my mails and I got it too. Sitting there for nearly 2 weeks. D'oh.
Did you guys already get your 'so many games' promo-code? I'm still waiting for Luigi
Just go to your club nintendo page. The code is sitting right there in the top banner. No need to wait for any emails (mine came days later, the code was on the page instantly).

Does anybody want a code for Last Window? I bought it while I was in Italy but I live in the US. If anybody has an unused NA Club Nintendo code I might be willing to trade.
I have a Phantom Hourglass US and Kirby Mass Attack code! PM'd

Ugh, save your precious stars!
The cool stuff vanishes instantly because nobody wants the useless crap that's in there now. The Galaxy OST is the only cool thing.
I doth not have the galaxy OST

So I managed to get in and order a yellow Pikmin before they sold out. I'm in the UK - can anyone tell me how long these things normally take to arrive? First time I've ordered anything from the stars catalogue...
Sometimes items took a good 4-6 weeks but my latest stuff came the next week.

Yeah it depends where they are shipping from.
Some stuff ships from CodeStorm which is Manchester I think.
Is there a restriction on how many things you can register? I bought my kids 3dsxls - one with mario kart preloaded, the other with animal crossing. I can register both games bit only one of the 3dses, when I try and do the other it says 'you cannot register is system again'. Completely different code.
I have a 3DSXL registered too from a while ago.
It's 750 points I don't want to throw away..

I think you can, but it may have to do with the models or something like that.
Edit: If you can't find a way to use the code, I'd like to have it if you don't mind.
I wonder if I registered the mario kart bundle and wheat asked me what 3DS is was, I said it was the animal crossing one (the leaflets were mixed up so I guessed). And maybe when I tried the animal crossing 3DS code it knows already it was the animal crossing one and it doesn't let you register two of the same SKu for some random reason?
I've emailed them, see what they say but who knows.
up to 6900 now, trawled through my account and a bunch of old games had surveys against them. Nintendo surveys are horrible but it's free points.
Is the figurine good or worth holding on for the game and watch? Was never a fan of ball and have a donkey kong Jr G&W already, but if it is a collectors item it might be worth having. figurine looks nice though.
edit: If I can't use it, I need 100 points to qualify for the figurine. I have two codes - one should be a 3DSXL code and one should be a game code. So a total of 1000 points. If someone can give me a code for a game they can have these two.

Got my three Pikmin today! Pretty quick! 
I have a Fire Emblem 3DSXL and White one registered.

I waited two months for my SNES controller to arrive, but other things have taken less than two weeks. The time it takes for something to arrive wildly fluctuates in my experience.

Seems like it's mostly UK people that got theirs, so likely they shipped from the UK, potentially Manchester?

It was from CodeStorm, yeah. Their website says they're in Hampshire.

Not got mine yet, but then again my post didn't arrive till nigh on 4pm yesterday.
Back in the day, I drove there to get my SNES fixed and some replacement game boxes (Ranma 1/2 and Unirally if memory serves).

Interesting artistic decision, giving the yellow one a fanny.

Not sure if I should spend my stars on this. What if something better shows up soon?
Then again, it can take ages before anything worthwhile pops up, while my stars keep expiring.

The potentially good news is that the Pikmin don't seem to be available anymore at the Stars Catalogue. So stop worrying, relax and wait for that something better that will eventually show up. ;-)

Interesting these Pikmin things have a Copyright 2009 tag on them. Makes me wonder if they originally made them for Pikmin 3 on Wii.

Makes sense, I ordered my blue Pikmin from the Stars Catalogue on June 10th, 2009.

These are going to look great with the Pikmin 3 preorder bonus.

Hope they're not too expensive. Have to wait and see.
Hope you're ready to wait 4 years for the chance that they might come around again. (This wasn't the first time they had them in stock, still have my yellow & blue from the original batch.)
Those Pikmin plushies should come back in stock

Pikmin 3 keyrings incoming for August:
How many did he mention? Because there is a third keyring that is a GAME pre-order bonus. Interested if that will be in the catalogue.
Linkstrikesback

He only showed those 2, didn't mention a number. I'd assume there will at least be Red/Blue/Yellow(/maybe Rock) types in the shop (With game having the Flying type as a bonus).
Presumably the GAME preorder one won't be in the stars catalogue though. They'd never have agreed to it.
Does anyone have a Mario and Luigi: Dream Team Bros. Club Nintendo code they'd be willing to trade to me? I have a New Style Boutique code I could offer in return. My copy of Mario and Luigi came opened and without a voucher, and my Club Nintendo account just doesn't feel the same without it on the list.
I'm very disappointed in my local independent store for taking it out (GForce in Glasgow for those interested). I've noticed they've begun selling Club Nintendo gifts from within the store, so can only presume they're taking them out to redeem themselves. I'll be making sure my copy of Pikmin 3 is sealed when I buy it there.
Edit: I'll even sweeten the deal with a couple of quid Paypal transfer.

Mini Nintendo direct which had no fanfare and no livestream. Came out this afternoon out of nowhere.

I can either hear "Sweet" or "Three" quite likely includes the GAME preorder bonus one.

Thanks! I've been neglecting Gaming GAF recently as I've been consumed by the Steam Sale. I'm surprised NOE didn't tweet about it though :/.
EDIT - lol, they just did!

He says sweet.
His english isn't that bad! (especially since he says "three" plenty of times when saying pikmin 3, I'm sure he's saying sweet when talking about the keyrings)
