Damn, gold points only count if you buy a game digitally.
I’m hating myself so much right now. I bought DKC3 a couple days ago on the Virtual Console…
You shouldn’t be. Isn’t it, like, one of your favorite games ever?
Besides, you’d get no points if you bought it for less than 5$/€
I meant I’m hating myself for not buying it today rather than two days ago
Also, I would get points since its $8.
Just 10, though. It’s really not that big of a deal, you’ll get a similar amount the next time another SNES games catches your eye. It’s not like if you had spent 60 bucks.
That’s still 10 though. I will say that it really sucks that all points expire after 6 months they’ve been on your account.
That is true, yeah. I’d like to see them implemented in other things. Maybe even in Badge Arcade plays, or even Miitomo coins. Not many rewards have my attention (certainly not the discounts), only Zelda Picross, I guess.
At first I thought you had to redeem points for obtaining discounts. It’s automatic, tho I wish it could go to a physical copy as well.
YOU DO HAVE TO USE POINTS! WTF?!
So does anyone know if buying dlc counts as an eshop purchase and gets you gold points? Because I just bought the Hyrule Warriors Legends season pass literally right before I saw that My Nintendo had launched but didn’t get any… It’d pretty frustrating if I was just a little too early and would’ve gotten the coins if I had waited a little longer :/
If that’s that case, I just got screwed out of 30 gold points…
DLC doesn’t get you gold points, IIRC.
Already have 440 platinum points and 405 Miitomo points. It’s more than I was expecting, actually.
-||How?||-
Not sure myself. There’s only one mission that earns you 100 platinum points, and the rest barely amount to another 100. Unless I’ve been earning credit for playing Miitomo these couple of days, I have no idea where those +200 points came from.
-||Considering I will never have Miitomo, I won’t earn as much||-
-||Because it will never come to Scandinavian territory||-
Never say never, Commander.
Nevertheless, you can still use Miitomo, just without MyNintendo support. I’m guessing you’re not interested on that, though.
-||I have no use of Miitomo without it||-
I think you can still earn points, even without a linked account. The app doesn’t show it, but it would explain the extra points I have.
-||I can’t use Miitomo because it doesn’t exist in my territory, faking another country would be a dead zone as the Empire will punish those who do||-
Not really. I’ve been using the Japanese version without actually being there. As long as you don’t link a fake MyNintendo account, you’ll still be able to use it and cash the credits you earned in once the service becomes available in Scandinavia. Assuming it’s coming at a later date, that is.
-||I’ll hold off, since I know how the Empire works||-
Points have a expiration date -_- That doesn’t sit well with me, especially after losing $20 worth of Amazon app store credit because they expired.
I still wish Nintendo would give a better discount on their games. 15% and 30%? Pretty sure games on there are about 3 years old. Hopefully they’ll also have better content available in the future.
If this My Nintendo program stays the way it is right now, I’ll NEVER make use of it. I see absolutely no physical rewards. Looks like Nintendo has once again not learned their lesson.
They already said there will be physical rewards at a later date.
Thanks for telling me. I didn’t know that.
No problamo:)
It better be BEFORE 6 months are up. Otherwise, every point I’ve earned today will go to fucking waste. -.-
-||It has barely been 1 day operational and you’re already judging it completely||-
Judging is what I do best. Hehe
i love how they said they wanted to make things more simple and this new my nintendo shit has got me completely confused. how do you earn gold coins?
By buying digital games from the eshop
Looks like I’ll NEVER earn any gold coins. Since I never buy digitally.
I still haven’t gotten the verification email in order to finish setting up my account. I’ll assume the servers are busy. Guess I’ll check me inbox later.
Can we expect to find codes in our physical purchases again, Nintendo? I mean, you do have a “redeem code for points” option since I had to use that for the being a former Club Nintendo member code. If not, thanks a lot. Great way to screw over your physical only customers.
Damn it! I should have held off on pre-ordering Bravely Second: End Layer using the pre-download feature of the eShop!
