The subtle greed for free retro Nintendo games rages deep within us all.
I was wondering if there was anyway I could possible 'cheat' the club nintendo system and get an 'infinite' amount of coins. Naturally, I took it upon myself to find out.
First, I created a dummy Club Nintendo account. Cause I mean, can't have my actual stuff get ruined in the process ya know what I mean lmao.
Next I purchased Rusty's Real Deal Baseball on my second 3ds that lies in my closet, and linked it to the CN account. I got my 5 coins for registering the game immediately.
After, I factory resetted my 3DS to make it so the purchase 'never happened'.
Then I went back to the Eshop re linked my CN account and re downloaded Rusty I was surprised because it said "redownload", apparently factory resetting does not undo purchases made on the handheld.
So next I had to delete my Nintendo Network ID that was on that 3DS so I could DELETE that Eshop account.
And finally, after deleting the Nintendo Network ID, factory resetting, deleting the Eshop account and making a new NNID to buy Rusty with, I got a message saying:
"You body is not ready"
LOL no it said Only ONE NNID CAN BE LINKED WITH A CN ACCOUNT, EVEN IF YOU UNLINK THEM FROM THE ESHOP, THAT CN ACOUNT WILL NEVER COMMUNICATE WITH ANY OTHER CONSOLE BUT ONE WITH THE ORINGAL NNID!!!!!
In short, my findings are, you cannot cheat the system. Welp off to bed.
