What Should I Spend My Club Nintendo Points On?

Post by lisalover1 »

As of right now, I have just around 1200 Club Nintendo points, as I only recently entered the codes for my backlog of Nintendo games. So, what should I spend the points on? Should I splurge and go for the new Game and Watch handheld, or just get a couple smaller items?

Check how much you can get an item for from ebay before buying from Club Nintendo, then figure out what's best for you.

I just recently registered my games for the first time, and I was going to get one of the Game and Watch collections but then I saw that they aren't very expensive on ebay, so I just ordered from there. I'm hanging on to my points for something that I really want, and can't easily get elsewhere.

Either one of the game and watch collections on ds. I have them both and enjoy them very much. I also picked up grill off with ultra hand since it was only 80 points, but it kinda sucks.

Right now I have over 800 points and i'm asking myself the same question. Hopefully they come out with some new rewards soon, the same ones have been up for a long time. I have been thinking about those hanafuda cards, just for collecting sake.

I only had about 780 points so I bought the Mario and Zelda 3 poster set for 350 coins each. Nothing else really tickled my fancy.

I just signed up for Club Nintendo today thanks to this thread. If I had 1200 coins, I would probably get the Game and Watch Ball handheld re-release.

I'm kind of psyched that I reached Platinum status by signing up today just shy of the cutoff for this year's awards apparently. I'm at 680 and I don't think I'll be making my way up to 1200 anytime soon so I'm eying those Hanafuda cards.

I'm just pissed cuz a few months ago I got a screensaver now I am 10 points shy of 250 so I can't really get anything. And I am too broke to get any Wii or DS games. Le sigh. I know I am getting a Wii game for my birthday, but that is after the points expire.
