I am sure Majora's Mask will get a 3ds remake sooner or later.
The whining about Platinum prizes always makes me laugh. Reggie was right, the fans feel over-entitled. They are giving you some free shit and all people do is complain that the free shit isn't good enough. Here's the thing, if it weren't pointless tat then it wouldn't be free. At least they offer you some actual games now.
I'm surprised people are complaining about this year's. I'm pretty happy with a cool set of cards or some super nice looking posters. What is it about the internet that just makes people so negative and unable to be happy with anything?

The whining about the whining is pretty comical too.
Sounds like you were raised to not say no. Do you find yourself being walked on a lot?

I'm still waiting for that game case that holds 3DS and DS games on both sides to come back
They only have the stylus pack, where one side holds only DS games (no notch for 3ds games) and the other side holds 9 styluses.
I also cashed in a ton of surveys this year because they were going to expire I guess I'll be getting the playing cards. Is majora's mask DLC? if so what console?

Why did they have to spoil us in the first place with good prizes then just turn them to prizes that aren't nearly as good? At least put some good damn prizes that I can waste my coins on if the platinum prizes will keep getting worse every year.

The monthly DLC are great IMO.

Same for me.
I just googled "ebay club nintendo pillow", that's soo much cooler! I'd kill for that pillow!!
Ah. Did they reveal the dimensions of the posters? Well either way, I'll probably get the cards. Look pretty snazzy.
My walls are already dominated by those Zelda Anniversary posters lol

If I hear the word "entitled" one more time on GAF I am going to fucking kill someone. It's such a cop-out catch-all response to valid criticism.
Many of us are upset not over the prizes themselves but rather the discrepancy between the offerings in Japan and NA. It's ludicrous. NoA should be standing up for it's NA fans, but instead chooses to short-shrift them.

i love the idea, and i know miyamoto/co once talked about it, but i wish i saw it as inevitable like some of you guys do.
Those who are complaining about a free gift, give it up and stop acting like little babies. You didn't deserve or earn it in anyway. It's a bonus for buying and registering your games.
For those who want the statue, I have it, it's a pile of cheap plastic. It probably weighs all of maybe an oz. It feels real cheap and is hollow. It's crap and honestly doesn't seem that cool up close and in person.

I'm just amazed at the amount of sheer fan outrage in this thread. I mean, I was told to expect it, but it's still pretty hilarious to witness first-hand.
It's one thing to be disappointed, fine, express it, but "Fuck you, Nintendo"? Really? Over a prize?
Relax. If you're that disappointed, then it was your own fault for having such ludicrously high expectations (or any expectations, to be honest).

It's not a feeling of entitlement, it's a feeling of disappointment.
E: Case in point, look at the picture Zeer0id posted below me. That would be a fantastic "thank-you" for being a loyal Nintendo fan and consumer in the states.

Aw it is just the pillow! So jealous now!
Throw me on that "pissed off I feel more 'entitled'" list lmao
You dont get laid with posters and playing cards, dude. Get real.
sooouuuunnndtraaaaaacks
Seriously what does NoA have against soundtracks, dude. After the insane popularity of the OoT CD, surely they would have gotten the message? WE WANT SOUNDTRACKS!

What a joke, NoA dropping the ball as usual.

This. I mean, even an MP3 download would be better than anything on there.
Also, I don't want any of those prizes, so stay tuned because I'll be tossing up a Majora's Mask code once I can claim it.

Seriously?
Yeah, I mean it IS ridiculous to expect the American branch to be as good or even close to the European version and Japanese version :|
Like I said, you're free to be disappointed.
But outrage and disappointment are different things. I too am disappointed.
lol. Have to wait 8-10 weeks for redemption probably.
It's still in the original everything whatever it was sent in. I took it out. looked at it. Said, "Hmmm, what a piece of crap." put it back in box, packaged it back up, put in rubbermaid until I bought house.
And, no.
