Post by: TalesOfFan on July 31, 2012, 03:47:38 AM

The Game Boy version of Golf replaces Starship Defense as Club Nintendo's latest downloadable reward.

Golf for the original Game Boy is now available as a North American Club Nintendo award for 150 coins. Replacing the DSiWare tower defense title, Starship Defense, the 3DS Virtual Console title will be available until August 12.

Added to the 3DS Virtual Console on September 8, 2011 for $2.99, Golf was originally released for the Game Boy in 1990. While it's still a fairly basic golf simulation, Golf for the Game Boy includes courses set in both America and Japan, as well as a chibi-like art style.

Uggh.  Been following this since they started and I'm still waiting for a game I want but don't own.  I was kind of interested in Starship Defender, probably should have bitten.

Totally understand this feeling. The recent eShop sales were a complete wash for me because I already owned everything that even vaguely interested me.  That's not Nintendo's fault though.  Club Nintendo rewards have been much kinder to me though: 8 games downloaded so far, with only 1 something that I was disappointed in.  That's a lot of gaming for nothing*, and great value if you ask me!


*(In this case, "nothing" means 1100 Club Nintendo coins.)
