I've never bothered with Club Nintendo even though I probably have over 200 games I could register with codes to do so. I think there were codes in the Gamecube games and onwards. I don't know why exactly. It seemed like a great thing when it was first announced. I guess I just never cared much for a lot of the rewards offered and I don't really feel like answering a bunch of surveys for them so I've just never bothered with the whole thing.

This will be my first year NOT going platinum.
care to share some codes so I can keep the streak alive?

I think I'm 220 coins shy of Platinum. so I need like 3-4 retail games.
anyone care to help a brotha out?

I just to platinum for by registering Paper Mario Sticker Star and doing two post-play surveys.

I lost a lot of coins to apathy this year. I bought quite a few download titles and didn't do the registration surveys before they expired.

I just went through my Club Nintendo spreadsheet and crossreferenced it with my games to determine what I need to register on Day 1 again this year to get all the coins and keep my Day 1 Platinum streak alive.

Going to have a late night Monday night.

Got any left-overs so I can get to Platinum for this year!?

This is now a "wall of shame" thread.

UncleBob · « **Reply #31 on:** June 28, 2014, 07:58:35 PM »

Wow. From what you have registered/completed surveys for, you beat me by 270 coins. Congrats.

I do have 740 coins worth of surveys sitting in my "To-Do" list and have roughly 25 other games still to register though. I don't know how that stacks up against anyone else...

Stupid Club Nintendo won't give me coins for my arcade machines...

If you buy more Nintendo stuff than UncleBob you have a serious problem and may want to seek help from some kind of professional.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #33 on:** June 30, 2014, 05:12:08 PM »

I am now 130 pts away from Platinum.

Thanks to all those of you that donated codes to the cause. you will always be remembered.

I am now 3 games (2xWiiU, 1x3DS) away from reaching todays goal.
I think I can make it with a little help.

MysticGohan · « **Reply #34 on:** July 01, 2014, 03:18:53 AM »

You can do it BnM!

UncleBob · « **Reply #35 on:** July 01, 2014, 03:30:36 AM »

So, as usual, the site is wonky on Day 1 and isn't showing any coins towards the new year's goal. I suspect this'll be fixed shortly. But, until then... as of July 1st, Pacific Time... Platinum, Day 1.

700 coins registered and surveys taken.

MysticGohan · « **Reply #36 on:** July 01, 2014, 06:01:09 AM »

Go Bob! Hope BnM made his in time. Hope Nintendo has something interesting this year.

Shaymin · « **Reply #37 on:** July 01, 2014, 09:26:39 AM »

Seems to be only mildly hiccuping this year. Platinum GET (#7), 855 coins.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #38 on:** July 01, 2014, 09:56:03 AM »

I did not make it.... I remained 130pts short.
Maybe this year I won't wait till the last second rally the points.
This year's prize better suck as much the last two years prizes.

Soren · « **Reply #39 on:** July 01, 2014, 10:39:53 AM »

I barely stumbled into the platinum finish line this year. I probably have enough to get gold for now.

Halbred · « **Reply #40 on:** July 03, 2014, 08:25:31 PM »

I had way more than necessary for Platinum. It turned over today, so I did like 17 surveys that I'd been saving, and I'm 75 points to Gold already.

I have like 1480 Coins and NOTHING to spend them on. :-(

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #41 on:** July 03, 2014, 10:09:24 PM »

I just recieved (through anonymous donation) 110 points worth of codes....
I needed 130pts as of Monday.... this is very depressing. They meant to get it to me sooner, but was busy...

Oh well, that's just that much less I need for this year I guess. Thanks anyway anonymous donor.
It is still very much appreciated.

Had I gotten that on Monday, I probably would have used whatever credit is in my eShop acct to purchase something small that I've been putting off and crossed that platinum line.
But that's what I get for waiting till the last minute to manage my account.... or maybe it's Nintendo's fault for not releasing enough games that I felt compelled to purchase immediately and offering good enough prizes that encouraged me to get up to Platinum asap.

I hope this years prize sux just as much as the last 2 years [/h8n] ::crosses arms::

No one liked the Majora's Mask soundtrack from last year?

I reached Platinum a while ago. I'm already a Gold member for this next year...

UncleBob · « **Reply #43 on:** July 04, 2014, 07:42:11 AM »

Word is the platinum prize is going to be a special early promotional amiibo custom figure of your personal Mii.

Evan_B · « **Reply #44 on:** July 04, 2014, 09:59:42 AM »

That's so ridiculous I don't even know what to say.

I will burn this forum down if that is true....

Well, print it out first, then put it the fire place and set the printout on fire. Maybe I'll even record it so you all can watch me do it.

...

I liked it, although there were much better choices for which game could have been used.

Why put out an N64 soundtrack instead of one of the gorgeous orchestrated Wii/Wii U games that have been released in the past few years? Why use Majora's Mask instead of something that has been released recently, so the soundtrack might actually work as marketing material?

I'd gladly welcome another soundtrack this year, although would hope for something like Mario Galaxy, Super Mario 3D World, a recent Donkey Kong game, or a more recent Zelda game.

As for the Amiibo "rumor", sounds awesome but there is no way it's true - especially for a custom Amiibo per platinum member. Too bad.

UncleBob · « **Reply #47 on:** July 04, 2014, 11:08:37 AM »

I made that up for BnM. It's not a real rumor.

I've actually heard other people suggest this independently, never too seriously though. (Not that you sounded serious either.) Seems like something people wish would happen. Heck, I wish it would happen.

Maybe if we all start believing, dreams will come true?

UncleBob · « **Reply #49 on:** July 04, 2014, 03:20:57 PM »

I know in one of the E3 threads, I mentioned it'd make a cool Club Nintendo prize. I don't see it being a platinum-type prize - I see it being something that takes a lot of coins - like 1,200 or more.
