Club Nintendo Open For Business (NA)

, , ,

Gamers of the world, rejoice! Club Nintendo and all of its earnable goodies is finally here!

Oh, OK... So it's not for all the gamers of the world? Only US and Canada? OK... Aaaah, and not all goodies seen in Japan's Club Nintendo are available? Ooooh, but it DOES still have some goodies, right? Riiight...

So for those of us who don't live in the US/Canada (oooh, so close!) this probably isn't too big a deal, but for you lucky Northamericans, enjoy the benefits of registering your Nintendo products and acquiring good stuff with those sweet 'coins'. Enjoy the Club here!

Merry Christmas From MadworldRIP Maddie Blaustein (Voice of Meowth)

Site is overloaded, I am getting Internal Server Error

Have to wait a few hours

SpookSpook81 Tuesday, December 16, 2008 9:17:18 PM

Oh, yeah... I forgot to mention, the site is C R O W D E D right now, so be patient or just wait a few days (remember the Smash Bros. online experience on launch day? well, something like that is happening right now...)

Charles SchlossChas4 Tuesday, December 16, 2008 9:22:36 PM

I sent the webmaster the error as well as what Opera Dragonfly had in the Error Console smile They may need a server ugrade to handle the load smile

Meanwhile my problem is that i have to wait till Club Nintendo Australia kicks into gear .
And when that happens i be getting some hanafuda cards just due to the fact that Nintendo started of as an Hanafuda card company .

kawaiipikachu is that true?.....,
anyways Doted pass me some codes,be fair man.
oh yeah question,i have more than 13 games registered,what would a fair price be for that,anyone.....?
oh yeah i heard sponsor-employees(i believe retail stores-employees) aren't allowed to participate.

Tony G. Martinez MoraNewTonyIc Wednesday, December 17, 2008 8:52:10 PM

yo,i finished like two surveys and nothing happened,no coin earn......i'm hopefully furious

Charles SchlossChas4 Wednesday, December 17, 2008 8:57:06 PM

NewTonyIc give it a few days I also had trouble completing the surveys, I will try this weekend

evaunit6 Wednesday, December 17, 2008 9:40:29 PM

Same here...finished a survey, but it didn't count it for anything. Now the site won't even let me log in. Jumped the gun, Nintendo did?

Pikachu Electronkawaiipikachu Wednesday, December 17, 2008 10:45:52 PM

I heard the whole thing is having problems & hopefully those problems won't pass over here in Australia as i want those Hanafuda cards .

Tony G. Martinez MoraNewTonyIc Thursday, December 18, 2008 1:11:41 AM

Well i'm trying from my Wii,i don't know if its vekus of it,has anyone tried and worked,thatis from the Wii?

Tony G. Martinez MoraNewTonyIc Thursday, December 18, 2008 1:14:19 AM

and some games don't even show their surveys,theyre just blank

Kinda stinks that all of those Gamecube game and GBA game registrations have been completely erased from My Nintendo irked. They could have at least counted as 5 or 10 coins. I only have 500 coins, and need 300 more to get that Game & Watch collection for DS.mad

SpookSpook81 Thursday, December 18, 2008 5:05:02 AM

Kids, have patience!!! Its the first time Club Nintendo steps out of its homeland, of course the site is overloaded!! Smash Bros. was overloaded, Wii production is not enough...begin to see a pattern here? Nintendo is NOT ready to handle all the demand, so be patient. You'll get your coins, you'll get your surveys... just maybe not right now...

.edDotEd Thursday, December 18, 2008 6:25:19 AM

so i just filled out enough surveys to pass the 600 coin mark. yay Platinum status!

sorry but it looks like i cant share those codes already input with anyone. but if my gut feeling is right, i can wait until july to do the rest of the surveys and earn coinage then towards my elite status for the next Club.Nintendo year and start off on reaching platinum again with a strong head start.

it does suck that a lot of (all) gamecube and GBA games don't count for it, but they do still show as registered, so that info isn't completely gone, just in a different place - not the coins page.

Pikachu Electronkawaiipikachu Thursday, December 18, 2008 10:27:43 PM

So you guys get some coins rollback due to them being allready registered in the Nintendo Members .
Unfortunately for Australians (as far as i know) don't get that advantage is i only got 2 Club Nintendo cards registered .
Well Nintendo Australia may have skipped a lot of things making us Australians fell all upset at least Club Nintendo is not an Australian Absent exclusive so one day those Hanafuda cards will be mine delivered in a gold leaf envelope with a return address of 804 stud road scoresbury park vic & i be jumping for joy .

At least you Aussies will GET Club Nintendo goodies... Mexico (or any other LatinAmerican country, for that matter) is not even being considered sad
