Club Nintedo Europe makes me jealous. Then again we make them jealous with our rewards as well here in North America. The latest rewards with Club Nintendo Europe are awesome! These trophies, my friends, are real life trophies. They are a bit on the expensive side. Setting you back 5000 stars. They measure 12cm by 10cm. You get choose between the ones pictured above. Would you spend some hard earned coins/stars for this particular rewards?
Nintendo of America has finally revealed what this years Club Nintendo prizes are for collecting all those coins through out the year! Platinum status holder who achieved 600 coins or more gets to choose between three new posters which feature promotional are from Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and Kid Icarus: Uprising. The other Platinum gift you can choose is a new set of Super Mario playing cards! (Glad they threw that in there.) So either you pick the posters or the cards. The choice is yours.
Gold member holders as every year , that means collecting 300 coins or more, will get a Nintendo 2013 calendar. Nintendo has shown the monthly art for the calendar yet, but given that the Wii U will be out by then, I can only assume it will have some images relating to the Wii U.
Now Nintendo wants to play a little bit of Deal or No Deal. So if you are not happy or satisfied with any of the rewards mentioned for both Platinum or Gold member, you have the option to say no to all the physical rewards and instead you will get a digital download. You have the option of the following: Super Mario Kart and The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask from the Wii Virtual Console, Metroid II: Return of Samus from the 3DS Virtual Console and Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again! from DSiWare.
