Hopefully soon...but also, anyone notice that Nintendo is having their Nintendo Direct the day after Club Nintendo officially gets closed? Curious!

Maybe the nintendo direct is just to say that taking down club nintendo was a aprils fools prank.

Gold/Platinum rewards are out. Logging in is a chore right now - here's a link to a screenshot:

Cool that the two zelda's i wanted as a reward are a choice... now the problem is which one?

I got a feeling that veterans of club nintendo already have most of those though.

Wow the gold stuff ugh...SMB3 is it for me. Platinum is pretty fine, predictable all being downloads. Shame they decided to hose people cutting off points in January as I would have been nicely over Platinum.

I'm leaning towards Pushmo World with Mario Party Island and Animal Crossing being runner-ups.

Oh boy, as expected only download rewards. Way to go Club Nintendo, closing out a chapter that has been around since 2003 (1989 for the magazines) with crap. Only DRM for the 3DS and WiiU! Not even one lousy Wii download game. :?

If they're shutting it down, I mean, I wouldn't expect much in the way of physical rewards beyond what they already made available earlier.

Free game? I'm down with that. I'll probably get Tropical Freeze, I've heard from many folks that hated DKCR that it's a far better game. I'll just pick up a physical copy later.

After looking, I think I might also just get A Link to the Past with the rest of my coins, and upgrade it for Wii U.
