Title: UncleBob's New Crazy Contest regarding his MyNintendo account.
Post by: UncleBob on May 21, 2008, 01:36:44 AM
So... I like to register my games on Nintendo.com. I know there's no real reason to do it... I just want Nintendo to know how much I love them (hint: a lot).
I just registered WiiFit (before even playing it... hell, if I could register it before opening it, I probably would)... and I'm up to having 110 games/systems registered.
So, here's the contest. Take a guess as to what my 125th game will be. It could be anything from Wii, Virtual Console, WiiWare, DS, GameCube, Game Boy Advance... there's no limit (aside from stuff that can't be registered or stuff that is already registered, of course...).
There's a few things though...
1.) I won't divulge my list of registered items. Maybe after the contest. 2.) I will continue to register items as soon as I buy them/get home/get time. I will not hold a game until I get a different one to register first. 3.) I will not divulge information regarding upcoming purchases. Well, nothing extra. I won't answer questions or such, but I might mention in another thread about how I can't wait for GameX. 4.) Keep in mind, if I find a game that I'm totally uninterested in that I can register for cheap, I'll do it. I bought a Pokémon GBA Video for $1.50 just so I could register it. (well, that, and I wanted a GBA Video to mess around with and try out the interface and such.) 5.) You're only allowed one guess. You can change your guess as often as you wish. If you want to change your guess, go back and edit your old guess to remove it, then create a new post with your new guess. 6.) More than one person can guess the same title - however, only the person with the earliest *unedited* correct vote will win. 7.) I don't know what the prize will be. It'll be something crappy, I'm sure. You're not allowed to complain about the crappy prize. 8.) Other rules may follow. If I add/change a rule, I will update the OP and reply. I will not intentionally create rules to screw anyone over. 9.) When I register a game, I will make a new post to let everyone know (so people can change their guesses, etc.). I can't promise I'll make the post as soon as I register the new game, but I'll try to remember ASAP.

It's probably going to be something stupid, I just registered Wii Fit and it's my 111th registered game on My Nintendo. I looked back and as far as I can tell my 100th game registered on My Nintendo was the SNES game Vegas Stakes on the VC, which this site (back when they did recommendations for VC games) did not recommend for anyone.

Crap.
I have to suspend the contest.
I registered WiiFit last night. When I did, I had 93 items registered. WiiFit should have made 94... but it didn't add to my list automatically. This isn't too unusual, so when I went back today to make sure it was there - it wasn't...
...and my list said I had 92 items registered!
So, I did what any sane person would do... went through my games and compared them to the list to find out what was missing.
I found a total of 13 games (5 Wii Games, including WiiFit, 1 GBA game, 4 DS games and 3 Virtual Console titles) that weren't on my list. As I mentioned before, I almost always register my games before I even play them, so this surprises me (not to mention the fact that the Virtual Console titles should register automatically). Two of the titles not registered are Mario Kart and Brawl - two titles I *know* I registered.
Anywhoo... the contest is over, I suppose... Once I get this straightened out, perhaps I'll revamp it to something like my 110th title or such....

Yeah, MyNintendo seems to break when you have that many items, mine seems to lose stuff all the time when I register them. I've actually had to reregister some of my stuff years later because they got dumped magically.

Here's to bumping old threads. I was sorting though my list (someone requested a list of GCN titles you could register - while I don't have them all, I gave them my list, which should get them a good ways.
Well, the 125th thing I registered... was a Nintendo Game Boy Advance, on 11/22/2008
Of course, since this was in regards to games, I went back and took out the systems... Game #125 - Super Mario Bros. 3 for Wii Virtual Console.
For fun:
Before the official launch of Club Nintendo, I had 123 items registered, the last being Personal Trainer: Cooking. Since the launch of Club Nintendo, I have registered a total of 172 items. This includes games I've since registered twice (like, Mario Kart: Double Dash) when I have multiple copies and systems that I've registered up to three of.
My first registered title was my GameCube, followed by Mario & Luigi: Super Star Saga for the GBA.
#25 - Metroid Prime Pinball for the DS #50 - Classic NES Series: Ice Climber for the GBA #100 - Bomberman '93 for the Virtual Console #150 - Nintendo DS Browser (My second one, I registered it, along with my second copies of 1080 and Double Dash once I realized I could register them on my family account)
My most recently registered game is Zelda II for the Virtual Console.
I've registered 29 VC and Wii Ware titles, 18 Wii titles, 53 DS titles, 24 GCN titles, 24 GBA titles, 12 DSiWare titles and 14 systems.
Game that I have registered and you don't: Super Smash Bros. Melee for the GameCube, registered on 11/24/2006.

How did you register 15 systems? Can you register systems older than GameCube?

3 GameCubes 3 GBAs 1 GBA SP 3 GB micros 1 Wii 1 DS 1 DS lite 2 DSi
And no, attempts to register older equipment are rebuffed with a "This product is not registrable" message. Which means that Club Nintendo recognizes my old SNES-mini's serial number, they just don't care.

Too bad they didn't allow the older codes to be accepted under a group called 'Legacy systems' so you could still track them.

The demos register in Club Nintendo? Do you get surveys for them?
I should probably try getting my account linked again, but when I called about it, the person was insistent that I simply wasn't entering in my username and password correctly.

Not sure why I keep doing this. Boredom, I guess. :D
I hit number 400 today. :D Actually, it was just random chance I happened to check it while poking around my account, sad, because the OoT CD offer is messed up. :(
Deleting all this because it's not quite right...

Okay, so here the new breakdown, after swapping a few titles around, putting them in the correct category (i.e., had the Wario Ware GCN title under the GBA column) and pasted a few titles that I had missing from my list.
Oddly, after double checking everything, I've got 8 downloads that aren't showing that should be. (several other downloads that aren't showing, but won't, because they're demos I've already downloaded on the other Wiis). (Also, 2 titles I downloaded today that haven't shown up yet).
So, as of right now, before Nintendo fixes (hopefully) the 8 missing titles (and the other two show up), I've got: 402 items registered 21 Systems, 31 GCN titles, 21 GBA, 73 DS, 41 Wii, 19 Wii VC, 30 WiiWare, 86 WiiWare Demos, 75 DSiWare titles, 2 3DS titles, 2 3DS Downloads and 1 3DS Virtual Console title.
#325 - Bit Trip Beat Demo #350 - Rage of the Gladiator Demo #375 - Bit Trip Runner Demo #400 - Bit Trip Void Demo
Most Recent GCN Title Registered: Mario Kart: Double Dash!!

On a related note. I'm going to carve out some time this week to get my Club nintendo stuff filled in. So that will be 10 years worth of game and system registration. I just need to find my GBA's and Cube... Only 2 3DS titles. Sort of surprised.
