Author Topic: 2011 Wii Secret Santa thread of (your preferred holiday(s)) cheer! (Read 12986 times)

Hey all! It's nearing Christmas, so I thought all us Wii owners could get together and celebrate what will probably be the Wii's last Christmas as Nintendo's active home console by having another Secret Santa event.
Last year's was fun (thanks for the hard work, EasyCure!), and I hope we can match it again.

The rules are simple:

1) Sign up by posting in this thread that you want to join this year OR PM me that you want to join this year. The deadline is December 23, a Friday.

2) Be able and willing to give a Wii Shop game gift to your assigned person anytime between December 24 and January 6.

3) If you sign up, please give me your Wii Code, Region (Americas, Europe, Japan, Australia, etc.), and optionally a few games/genres that you're interested in.

So come spread some holiday cheer with your fellow NWR's! If you have any questions, concerns, or ideas, feel free to let me know either here in the thread or by PM (I'll leave it to your discretion which is the more appropriate).

2011 Santas:

I'm up for it. I'll update with the appropriate details later.

Edit: noname2200, i've also PM'ed this info but just in case:

Wii Code: 4128 5431 3283 5534

Region: United States

Wishlist:

To be honest, i'd be open for a surprise gift. If my secret santa goes this route, then a safe bet would be an RPG/strategy that isn't FF/Chrono Trigger, a platformer, or anything but a straight puzzle or fighter game.

If you'd rather be safe, here are a few sure-things i'd be appreciative of getting.

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (Nintendo 64 - 1,000 Points)
Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen (Super NES - 800 Points)
Sin & Punishment (Nintendo 64....I think - 1,200 Points)
Secret of Mana (Super NES - 800 Points)
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars (Super NES - 800 Points)

Looking forward to it!

Ok, I'm game. Should we post details here?

oohhboy · « **Reply #3 on:** December 12, 2011, 12:18:04 AM »

I am afraid I have to decline, reason being that I don't own a Wii. If the 3DS had such a function, I would be in. Maybe better luck next year.

Chiramii · « **Reply #4 on:** December 12, 2011, 05:36:03 AM »

Heck yeah, I'm all on for this. I'll PM you my information when I have time to do so.

noname2200 · « **Reply #5 on:** December 12, 2011, 11:06:15 AM »

Welcome aboard!

Here or by PM'ing me, whichever's more convenient for you.

I feel you. To be honest, I think the lack of gifting on the eShop is one of the biggest missing features on the system.

I'll be glad to participate. I was in the first one but haven't done one since. I don't have my information on me.

Killer_Man_Jaro · « **Reply #8 on:** December 13, 2011, 05:20:38 PM »

As one of the few European users, I don't suppose there's much chance for me to participate?

3) If you sign up, please give me your Wii Code, Region (Americas, Europe, Japan, Australia, etc.), and optionally a few games/genres that you're interested in.

So you can still participate, but will be limited to other people with a European Wii too.

Glad to have y'all!

You never know unless you try! I'm confident at least one other European user will join us, so please feel free to sign up.

I'm thinking worst case scenario, santa could buy a wii points card from Amazon uk and have it shipped to you?

That, or Santa could outright bribe someone on that side to fill his shoes.

Kairon · « **Reply #13 on:** December 15, 2011, 02:14:06 AM »

This was a horrible idea. To prep my wishlist, I just added back about $120 worth of WiiWare and VC games to my "to Buy" budget spreadsheet.

noname2200 · « **Reply #14 on:** December 15, 2011, 12:27:15 PM »

Mwahaha! Well, maybe some of those games will also be Club Nintendo games going forward, so you're really just saving yourself time in the months to come!

bustin98 · « **Reply #15 on:** December 15, 2011, 01:48:14 PM »

My Wii code is 0360 6313 7175 1216

Region is USA

I don't know about my wishlist... the genres I like are action adventure, platformers...
I'll have to go over what is available.

Thank you much good sir!

Just a heads-up for the rest: be like bustin98, and please remember to send me your Wii code, country, and wishlist ASAP! Thanks!

Woah, I almost forgot to sign up for this! I have a different Wii now so I had to go check what my new code was, and then forgot to come back here and post.

Here's my new number:
0469-5061-0945-9349

If you have my old number, please remove it, unless you want to send something to my parents.

Kairon · « **Reply #18 on:** December 22, 2011, 04:27:47 PM »

Mop It Up, what do your parents use the Wii for? Would they be interested in... say... Something like Dr. Mario?

Ceric · « **Reply #19 on:** December 22, 2011, 04:33:13 PM »

I keep forgetting to find my code before bed...

Kairon · « **Reply #20 on:** December 22, 2011, 10:18:42 PM »

Hey Ceric, is it 0587 7350 4883 0584?
