Club Nintendo is a big Rip-Off because when you buy games and put in the codes, half the time you don't get the prizes.

When I ordered a game, (Splatton) it didn't give me the game, but it did use my coins.

I also registered my 3DS and my Wii U(I sold the Wii U a little while after), and didn't get my coins. I only got coins when downloaded somethnig onto my 3DS.

I also sent them E-mails, they said they couldn't do a thing about it. Nintendo said if that happens, they would fix it and give you your coins. Apparently, I just think Club Nintendo was easily rushed and the glitches were never fixed.

This site is a lot better than Club Nintendo.

(This is just my opinion, yours may be different.)
 
Club Nintendo isn't really a bad reward system site , sometimes however , the servers can get cluttered a lot and unexpected things may happen .

You might be referring to linking you 3ds and Wii u to you CN account . that doesn't give coins . Usually a special CN code is included in the console box so there is a difference :p

I don't really trust the e-mail system . Most of the time , I just go and do some online chat thing because it's more reliable :p
 
Nope, it said, 'register your 3ds XL/Wii U System to get coins." I was supposed to get 150 coins I think, but it never happened. Same with the Wii U.Half the games I registered didn't work, and only the ones I downloaded worked every time, I already said that though. I'm sure of what exactly happened. I am the one who experienced it, after all. :D
 
I mean Club Nintendo is sorta sad, the first time, they gave large special scpultures that are perfect for decorations only for cn memebers for Platinum and Gold got smaller ones. Now they give 20$ and 40$ games that mostly aren't popular and aren't special because anybody can buy them :p. I am really grateful though because Nintendo didn't have to do this and didn't in the past but are nice now and are making a new one! Yay! :D Sometimes club nintendo was reaalllyyy slow on surveys and reset me 10 times o_O and didn't register a game until 2 weeks later :eek:

Club Nintedo Rating: 8/10

BTW they were perfectly fine with sending me the emails, maybe you gave them the wrong email >.< in that case you are the one who is wrong :panda: Splatoon isn't a game you can get I believe in Club Nintendo :panda:

Oops, sorry. I meant Kerploosh. XD I get mixed up with the names of both of those games. I sent the right email, if I could show you, I would. Some people have different opinions on that site and some don't. It just doesn't work out for me.
I'm not lying about this, though. Most people don't trust me in real life, kinda due to my name.

Maybe the codes might have been already used by someone >.> Well , I guess that it was some sort of bad luck that seemed to fall upon you if that's the case . I do hope that the new rewards system will certainly be more better with their servers and reliability since stuff like this can happen in many times
 
If you bought a pre owned game chances are its been used :p Also, how can Club Nintendo be a rip off when it is completely free? I think the correct term would be waste of time or something like that...

I kind of disagree. :0

Although, some of the prizes may be cheap, we can't ignore the fact that we get rewarded back for buying stuff. I've had no problem getting my points in, so I think that might have been an issue on your end. Not really a rip-off because no contracts are signed and no one is being scammed. :playful:

I've never had a problem with them so far to tell the truth, the only thing that was a bit frustrating to me is the fact that they took a while to get to me through email, but I'm guessing times may vary sometimes! Other than that I've never had a problem with the codes or anything else. Maybe one of the reasons why they're doing something new is because they want to improve/better the system so problems won't repeat themselves? :cat:

Meh, it's kinda nice but I hope the next rewards system is much better with more physical and digital rewards; but in Europe, we get the really overpriced rewards and we still don't have retail games as digital rewards (for example, no Star Fox 64 3D which I really want but it's like £30 on e-Shop and more retail now).

I agree with rawrrie.
