Do My Old Games Count For Club Nintendo?
By .ed. Thursday, 18. December 2008, 07:12:56
With Club.Nintendo being all people seem to talk about the past few days (at least in the US), I keep hearing the same question: "What about the crap I already had registered?"

Note that Wii Fit will earn you 80 coins after survey. With about 16 of the games above, I reached the 600 point Platinum status in under an hour, including the server delays from demand. I'm going to wait to do additional surveys for the rest until after July 1 2009 so those games will count towards next year's status and I recommend others do the same once you reach 600 coins, unless you're going for those sweet Hanafuda cards. All in all, an excellent compromise on Nintendo's part. Keep in mind, Club.Nintendo focuses on Nintendo published games.
How many coins did you get for your previously registered games?

On a totally unrelated note, I just ordered the animal crossing cards for only 500 coins!

Well currency conversion would means $50 = $70 plus standed Australian game inflaction meaning a game would be $100 AU & lets hope that a hundred Australian doller game equial to a hundred coins then .
