hey kid. congrats on the free points.

Now I have a question for my buddies here on racketboy.

I finally have over 1200 points.

I redeemed a free kirby pinball game earlier. I'm still over the 1200 mark.

Should I redeem them all and get the game and watch?

Or should I save them for the free games that are offered over time?

I'd go for free games. I'd do it too but I don't have internet on my Wii.

I like to redeem my Club Nintendo coins on physical stuff -- the 18 game 3ds case, pouches, posters, cards, etc. Just feels like more of a reward that way.

I realized this morning that I have beaten over 3/4 of all the SNES NTSC-U fighting games.

The conversatation about scifi in the unpopular gaming opinnions thread reminded me: is the Sega CD version of Dune any good? Worth the price on ebay (15-25 USD or so+11-18 dollars for shipping)? I don't own a Sega mouse so keep that in mind

I'd say turn them in. There's probably not a lot of time left for Wii support for such things between the 3DS and Wii U.

I probably have 600 Club Nintendo points just laying around I've yet to redeem. Maybe I should sit down and do that this afternoon.

Buy first-party games, consoles, and accessories from Nintendo and they pack in codes in the inserts that you turn in for points. And you can do surveys of games you've registered for points, sometimes.

Meh, I give up.

I also wonder why nobody has created an actual Myst island. It isn't too big so it's not exactly farfetched :lol:
