Club Nintendo Australia relaunched

Yoshi Cleaning Cloth still available.

If you’ve kept an eye on Club Nintendo recently you will have noticed it’s been offline for maintenance. We knew Nintendo was at work updating it in time for the release of the Wii U, and now it’s finally returned.

Club Nintendo has relaunched with an all new look. Whilst it’s still in the process of being updated, you can head over there now and take a peek at the few available sections. Unfortunately the Stars Catalogue is temporarily unavailable along with the ability to redeem items from it, but the option to register a product or fill out a survey is live.

If you do register/review a product you’ll find it’s a much easier experience than before. Nintendo now has a friendly form system in place, meaning 20 pages of questions about a particular game can be knocked over in a flash.

On a slightly related note, 3DS owners who purchase a digital copy of a 3DS title will receive double the amount of stars. So 400 in total provided you register your game within 28 days of the actual download.

Box throwing – This is how Nintendo sends those Yoshi Cleaning Cloth to your house!

I’ve been writing about video games since 2006 and playing them since I was a kid. I started out with a copy of Mario & Yoshi on the Game Boy and before I knew it was in debt to Tom Nook. These days I spend much of my time trawling the eShop for the latest downloadable hit.
