In late September Nintendo announced that it was making some big changes to Club Nintendo in Japan. Among those changes was the removal of Club Nintendo points / cards from upcoming hardware.
The New 3DS and New 3DS XL were the first to have this in Japan and Amiibo figures will also not have them. Now it appears the same new strategy will apply here in Australia.
